Earthian, Volume 3
The secrets of the Black Cancer, and the angels' long-time examination of the Earthian finally come to light, and the consequences are not what anyone ever expected. Chihaya is distraught when he discovers just what Michael has been hiding from him, and becomes withdrawn. But in the end, the consequences of his relationship with Kagetsuya may prove to be even more disturbing. The angels prepare to invade Earth while Elvira and her cohort of Black Angels ready their defenses, and Chihaya and Kagetsuya must finally decide where their loyalty lies, and if it even lies with each other anymore!

2.5 stars
This manga has angels, quite nice art, a cute couple and a promising concept.
But, honestly, important parts of the plot are almost comically over-simplified. And the story had quite some space to unfold but instead used up some chapters to stall and other chapters to "squeeze" the main issues in.

While confusing because it jumped all over the place, this was a beautiful series (and I've already read the 4th one, but since that is -technically- the last book, I'll comment on it first). The only reason I didn't give it--and the whole series for that matter--five stars was because it did seem a little disoragnized at times, and the ending felt a bit rushed. But it was nevertheless a touching story, and I'm so glad Kagetsuya and Chihaya found each other, and defied the laws to be together. While the whole thing wasn't a happy ending, their personal story was, because they were together. Their reunion was so sweet and touching it made me feel all warm inside. The last scene is the two of them gazing down at the Earth together, after having saved it from destruction.
And I mean, come on, how could Kagetsuya -not- love Chihaya? He may not be very bright--despite the fact he gets high scores on exams--but he is adorable and loving...like an angel *wink*. If he was real, I'd so want him as a friend. Kagetsuya couldn't have picked a better partner (even if some other people don't always feel that way). If you saw the anime and were disappointed, read the manga! It is a complete 180! You get to meet more angels, not to mention the relationship between our two stars! Oh, and for those who are craving him, more Taki!
It was interesting to learn why homosexuality was punishable by death on Eden, but the relationship between Kagetsuya and Chihaya proves, above all else, God preaches love.
