    I don't understand in volume 1 chapter 5 and 6 you have the MC fighting Debra. Now you keep reffering to them as her than he and keep saying bastard this and bastard that. Now is the bad guy a male or female, it is confussing to read when it keeps changing like that

    This is one of the best novels I've ever read. I hope that when this novel is done, they would make another basing on Lin Feng's children. That would be awesome, like boruto.

    Story + Character: I rated the story a 3 because, honestly, it was just too predictable and too brief. The timeframe for the girl falling in love with the shinigami is far too short. Plus, if you read the front cover, it often gives away hints like "...this happened, so what's next...?" or something along those lines. So when you finish the manga, you're left thinking, "oh, that's all?" It's really disappointing.

    The reason I gave the characters a 4 is solely due to the male character, who had some charm. However, if it were based on the female character, I would have given it a 1—no joke. The girl really annoyed me, both in appearance and personality.

    Art: The art in this manga earned a 7 from me purely because of the male shinigami. He was beautifully illustrated, and the jewelry he wore was stunning in my opinion. Yet again, if it were based on the girl, the rating would have been a 1. To put it plainly, she was unattractive.

    Enjoyment: Extremely poor. Nothing more to say.

    Japanese folklore tells of a String of Fate, a Red thread tied around the little finger that connects two people destined to be lovers, irrespective of time, place, or circumstances. It may stretch or tangle, but it will never break.  

    *Shinigami Lovers* is a Shoujo manga by Yuuki Ryou, consisting of 2 volumes released in 2007.  

    - **SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!**  
    Story:  
    A high school student and aspiring nail artist named Miku Onda finds herself in a severe car accident, leaving her in a comatose state. As she lies unconscious in the hospital, a shinigami (god of death) named Sei arrives to escort her to the afterlife. Following protocol, he binds their souls together with a bracelet called "Thanatos Lover," ensuring they can never be separated. He also grants her one wish. Believing this to be a dream, Miku faints. Upon reaching the gates of the underworld, they discover her soul was brought there by mistake. She is sent back to the world of the living, but the chain binding them cannot be undone. Thus, Miku and Sei are tethered together by the Thanatos Lover until her natural death.  

    ---  
    While I appreciate the plot concept, I disliked both the beginning and the ending. The story moves too quickly, but I still enjoyed certain scenes, leading me to rate it 5/10.  

    Art:  
    The art style highlights the classic Bishoujo and Bishounen aesthetics, featuring large eyes, flowing hair, and slender figures. Although occasionally messy and disproportionate, the artwork is pleasing overall. (7/10)  

    Characters:  
    I found the characters likable, except for Miku. She blushes excessively in nearly every situation, which was somewhat grating.  

    Enjoyment:  
    I enjoyed this mangaka's work so far. The humorous moments were effective, earning it a score of 6/10.  

    Overall: 6/10  
    *Shinigami Lovers* revolves around a girl bound to a handsome death god until her true demise. The narrative delves into the challenges faced by shinigami regarding their duties, ranks, and situations. While the focus isn't solely on the protagonists' romance, the story feels rushed, particularly at its start and conclusion. Nevertheless, I award it 6/10 due to its charming art and overall entertainment value.

    This is my first manga review—hope you enjoy it! :)

    Ok so I started this book because the concept intrigued me (felt a bit overdone, but still a favorite of mine). The main character dies and ends up chained to a shinigami (who's pretty attractive, by the way). However, the female lead can be somewhat annoying at times, characters are introduced but not developed much, and the ending is really unsatisfying—it leaves you thinking, "Is that it?" as another review mentioned.

    The story seems to be leading up to some kind of romantic scene or big confession, and I was genuinely let down.

    Overall, it was decent, but I think it could have been much better. I still recommend giving it a read, just don't expect too much from it. <p>
