Este es uno de mis tomos favoritos, por el simple hecho de ver a Bibi más tierno y celoso de lo usual, sin duda la llegada del niño humano va a cambiar más de una cosa en la historia.
Amo como Hana confía en la gente y se abre a ellos como si todos fueran absolutamente inocentes. Es tan pura, pero a veces me saca un poco de quicio que sea tan adorable(?
En cuanto a Felton, me encanta que pese a las formas en las que Bibi lo aleja, él sigue considerandolo un amigo y quedándose cerca suyo.

*This review is for the series as a whole with 4 out of 5 stars*
This manga, Hana to Akuma was recommended by a friend but I forgot the title until I came across it on goodreads. I guess my hanging around on goodreads paid off eh? Hehe.
Before we talk about this story, let me tell you what the title means. Hana means flower, to is a Japanese particle that could be used in a lot of ways but for this, it’s used as and, while Akuma means demon or devil. Hmmm, so tell me, was that able to get your attention?
I love supernatural stories especially in my books, manga, anime or movies and this one didn’t disappoint at all. My friend told me a summary about this story (when she recommended it to me) so it felt like I already know it without having to read it yet. My mood is really getting hard to please lately (which is really annoying) so I was quite surprised that this manga took my full attention as early as its first chapter. I guess it was partly because I love the art and the protagonist looks so hot (insert deafening squeal here). Actually, he has this weird resemblance to Lelouch Lamperouge. Well, because of that, I can’t help but think that all the demon characters in the manga/anime that I’ve watched so far were required to be incredibly hot. Remember the last demon butler I was lusting over early this year? Hehe.
The plot of this story was quite interesting making it not your typical shojo manga. As you can read on the sypnosis above, Vivi is a demon duke who came to the human world to kill time found an abandoned baby and, on a whim, raised her. She cried so hard but once she saw Vivi’s face, she smiled sweetly like a flower and that’s how she got her name.
This story started really light at first introducing its main characters and how the two of them met. But once I reached volume 4, it’s started to get really more interesting making it hard to put down. Evidence? I finished all 10 volumes for just 2 nights. I really stayed late last night not being concerned that the next day would be another work day because dang! It was so good. Well, compared to your usual shonen manga/anime, Hana to Akuma is quite simple but there’s just something about it that will pull you closer. Ofcourse it’s not perfect with all its flaws and clichés but those didn’t stop me from enjoying this manga. I also love how it made me emotional especially on the last volume. It was so emotional that I actually found myself crying to sleep last night, or should I say this early morning, haha.
The main leads we’re so cute together that I keep on grinning like an idiot everytime they’re having sweet scenes. I love Vivi! Well, he’s actually the first thing I noticed when I started this manga and my admiration for him stayed all throughout the story. He has a hot and cold personality but you can really see how he cares so much for Hana. And my! He’s really so good looking which angle you look at him. And heck! You should see him wearing glasses! Ahem, I am starting to sound like a crazy stalker, haha. So, let’s talk about Hana now eh? Just like Vivi, I like how the author drew her character. She’s really so kawaii! And my! You should see her smile! It’s so innocent and so contagious and so perfectly drawn. Considering that she grew up with demons, she sure remained pure and so innocent. There’s definitely no evil in her, which I’m sure one of the reason why the great demon king and other demons adores her, *wink.
Aside from the main leads, I also like the other characters as well. It’s great that they all got the chance to share their own story making you feel really close to them. I didn’t find any unnecessary scenes here and every character got their own role to play and done them well. There’s no hair-pulling-annoying characters but I have this 1 particular character that I want to burn alive, haha, kidding. He’s quite annoying but I think his role made the story more interesting.
Also, I super love the art especially on how the author drew their clothes!
SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!
When a human fell in love with a demon, you would expect her to suddenly enjoy a long lifespan too right? I was really expecting for that and I would be lying if I say that I wasn’t disappointed. But then again, that’s usually what a hopeless romantic like me would expect. Eventhough I was disappointed, I have to say that it was still beautiful. Emotional yes but the ending was undeniably beautiful and realistic. But thinking about it still makes me want to wail. Uwaaaah! Vivi! Hana!
Considering of its flaws and clichés, I have to say that Hana to Akuma is still a very good read. I enjoyed discovering the demon world, laughing with the characters and just loving everything about it (especially Vivi, *wink). Yo guys, you really need to read this manga!

plot is finally getting interesting! REALLY wish hana would hurry up and grow up, though.

She died at the end, it was not a surprise. She was human after all. It was a good read, it was satisfactory and her kindness was repaid in the end.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

Probably the best one so far - the demon king is an interesting character. And I like the little love triangle going with flower boy lol.

Mini manga review here and today I have a sweet story for you. To say the truth I dropped it once, because of something, but then I took it up again.
I really thought that it would end a bit differently. I mean, we didn’t really see the after marriage life of Hana and Bibi. I mean 10 volumes were as if just an introduction, though there were a lot of moments of Hana and Bibi, but I really wanted to see those two as a couple more. I really cried at the end. I didn’t want it to end like that. It was too sad.
Though Bibi does say that he’s the happiest man, he says it with such a sad face. It just breaks your heart. Wouldn’t it have been more interesting to turn Hana into a demon? But then she would have lost her love to flowers, so I guess it did end quite logically.
If you have some free time and would like to read something fun and sweet, this is your book. Enjoy it and don’t forget to share your thoughts below! Stay tuned and happy reading!

Tubuh Hana tertukar dengan kucing! Dan Vivi, yang jelas jelas benci dengan kucing pun menjauhi Hana yang berubah menjadi kucing. Oww..
Sedangkan Momo, dia yang merasa ada getar-getar saat bersama Hana pun mengunjungi rumah Hana. Tapi, dia kaget saat Hana tiba tiba berubah menjadi kucing. *padahal itu mah kucing yang berubah jadi Hana*
Akhirnya, Momo tahu bahwa Vivi dan penghuni kastil itu merupakan iblis. Dan yahh.. Dia meninggalkan Hana dan menganggapnya sebagai pembohong.
Selanjutnya... Komik ini bergerak lebih cepat dibanding sebelumnya yang terasa lambat. Vivi sudah bisa mengeluarkan ekspresi cemburunya dengan lebih baik meskipun dia merasa pada akhirnya nanti dia tidak akan bisa bersama dengan Hana untuk selamanya.
Anyway, mungkin di jilid 4 ini sudah mulai terasa konfliknya. Di bagian akhir ada sesuatu yang yaahh... Bikin aku pengin baca lanjutannya!

Toni si pelayan Vivi dapet bagian tersendiri di cerita ini, meski beberapa halaman sih. Temen baru Hana, Momo, mulai curiga sama kehidupan Hana dkk yang gak masuk akal. Sementara itu Vivi sedang berjuang menyembuhkan luka karena ditusuk oleh raja iblis. Hana yang sayang banget sama Vivi berusaha menolong Vivi biar cepet sembuh dengan cara memberikan darahnya pada Vivi.

I really liked this volume. I liked the turn of events.
It’s getting interesting, a whole lot better than the previous volumes. I could feel the excitement of the plot and the humour of the dialogues.
THIS IS GETTING INTERESTINGLY BETTER !!!

I think Hana acts so immature because she's been sheltered her entire life, I mean, she's never been around anyone her own age. It also seems like other characters who are her age think she's a little bit strange.
January 9, 2012
I can't believe I stayed up past 3a to read this and still had to get up early the next morning for work. Worth it. It was weeelllll worth it.
April 2, 2014
hah! in real life. there should be more conflict if a king marriage is interrupted. ckckck... more conflicts, please!

The triangle was so funny!

Hana seems to be way to lack maturate for her age. she doesn't act like a 14/15 year old. the devil is a caring and loving father figure

What will happen now that Lucifer has taken interest in Hana.
