What's the Name of That Book??? discussion

Manga about a bird, lives in tower, chibi/cutsie style of art, the bird sings and a man hears it and rescues the bird, the bird we see in human form, their wings are their hair. Can't remember if the bird is male or female, but looks feminine, might be male though. The style was very cute, which stuck out the most, since the story was simple.

Not much to go on, sorry! It's all I can remember. If manga isn't book enough, sorry again!

Hi Shayne! I couldn't track down your manga online so I'll continue the search in bookstores going forward. Just wanted to say, manga are definitely books too! <3

I spent all night searching for it, so I'm not surprised you couldn't find anything online. I even went through every page of multiple character databases! Thanks for helping me search.

When did you see this manga? Was it in book format or a magazine anthology? Could it be something from Osamu Tezuka's Phoenix? Phoenix, Vol. 1: Dawn

How many years ago did you read this?
Was it targeted towards children, teens, or adults?

I don't know any of those details, I read it two or three years ago. It's not Phoenix. I believe it was relatively short. I read it online, but it was a scanlation. It wasn't for children, so somewhere between teen and adult.

Sounds like Clover by Clamp.

CLOVER series by CLAMP for Sally's suggestion - https://www.goodreads.com/series/5305...

Clover has a locked up bird girl, but it's definitely not a cute or chibi art style, so I don't know if that's the one Shayne is looking for.

Does this bird live in the tower with a male mage/wizard and some fairies by any chance? If she does, I've read it before, too, but I don't remember the name of it.

The only other one I can think of that it might be is a story from Alone In My King's Harem. Chapter 4 is called Adventure of a Canary and it features a very feminine boy with wings on his head who sings for an audience.

I was going to suggest the same story but I couldn't remember which manga it was (lol), just that it was by Lily Hoshino.

Oh my gosh! Maria found it! It was Alone in My King's Harem! Thank you!
