'Misao is the bride of prophecy whose blood gives power to the demon who claims her. But most demons want to keep her power for themselves - by eating her! Now Misao is just trying to stay alive...'

In the aftermath of the events of last volume, Kyo's attitude towards Misao seems to have change. She is worried his feelings for her may have changed. This volume also contains the introduction of Kyo's father, but not much is known about him yet. As well, there are fears of a traitor in their midst!...more

In the entire series, Kyo has been demanding that Misao become his bride so that the other demons will leave her alone once she is his. After the ending of the last volume, I believed the plot would venture onto something else, something deeper. Nay, Black Bird, Volume 9 opens up with Kyo claiming her virginity has no effect on her power so demons will still come for her. *face palms*

I'm not sure if this series is getting bland or that I'm reading too many volumes back-to-back an...more

Dear Kyo,
Why were you a jerk for most this volume? I shall forgive you, but don’t give Misao the cold shoulder after you two have finally done the dead. I hate guys like that, don’t be like that. Since you are insanely awesome and bring out the fangirl in me, I’ll let you slide.
Sincerely,
Me


They finally did it and now they are considered marry by demon law or something like that. Why is everyone always trying to break them up and eat Misao, they c

I think this book is good because you never know what is going to happen next. In this book Misao and Kyo have a weird relationship with each other. When they are together they always fight but they love each other. When they are apart they want to get back together. To me this is crazy because when you are with someone you love you don't fight you are suppose to enjoy the time you guys spend together. When a two guys were taken over by a demon they went after Misao. I got scared but then Kyo ca...more

Oh my goodness this was such a great installment, the weird thing though is that is was the bonus chapters that revolved around Jiro, Taro, and Sabaru that really made this volume amazing. Such a great telling of their time before Kyo became leader, and their relationship as brothers. Every page just made me go AWWWWWWWW!!!!

Seriously though, just so cute.

The main part of the volume was also really good. The drama has really picked up and the consequences are becoming real and bloody. The story...more

This is one of my favourite supernatural shōjo mangas!

Misao sees somethings that other people can't, and if they could, they would be scared to death! Normally, the monsters would do small harmless things, such as pull her hair or jump on her bac. But on her sixteenth birthday, the creatures take it farther by trying to kill her, as her blood gave improve their lives.
However, luckily she's saved by a lost childhood friend who has returned. His name is Kyo Usui, but he has a dark secret too. He...more

I was kind of wondering how much story would be left after they had sex. Don’t get me wrong, I know there’s more to the story than them having sex, but it seemed like so much hinged on their consummation. Like most teenagers losing their virginity, Misao gets clingy. Her emotions are all jumbled. She feels like everything should be different. They kind of are, but it’s because there are new threats in place.

Kyo and Misao have finally slept together, in order for Kyo to gain the strength to break a deadly curse placed upon him by Raikoh. Now, they have to face the aftermath, as they're not sure what will happen to Misao now that she's been taken as Kyo's bride.

Embarrassingly for Miaka, the other demon clans know this automatically (apparently - they wake up to a messenger sent by the Kitsune clan bearing a congratulatory gift). That doesn't mean they've given up, however. A series of attacks appear...more

This is a good manga, while most of the themes and characters annoyed me at times, I still read on. It's powerful in its own way, whether or not I enjoyed the romance. Most of it improbable, but it is a fantasy that escapes ordinariness. I like the blood and gore and the fight for being head of the clan. There is emotion and raw feelings. I can see why it's popular.

I love that the story is finally changing, it's full of passion still but it's not as repetative. I cannot wait to read more! There's tonnes of action and I think Kyo and Misao are SO cute!!
Starbubbles
It was slightly disappointing, but some interesting twists with the returning dad and new clan rumblings. The Little Black Bird stories were cute and honestly the highlight of the book.
dennis
pressure from the clans is heating things up, and misao & kyo's relationship is taking a weird turn. still good, but this part of the plot is going to be rough, methinks.
Ashlyn
After the excellent build up of the entire series up to this point it felt sort of anti-climatic and nothing gets really answered.
Jenni
I absolutely adore this manga! And would recommend it to all to read it, but do expect that it could be a little mature.
Keith Bryan
Not awesome. The extra story in the back is the ONLY reason this didn't get two stars.

I really enjoyed the bonus stories. Finally got an idea of what happened to the triplets and seeing some of the motives in the 8 Daitengu is interesting as well.

I absolutely adore Black Bird! The art, simply delicious. I definitely recommend it to anyone out there over 16. A wonderful shojo that screams yummy male characters through out.
Patricia
This is one of the first manga that feels like it could have been a PNR novel. I should read more of those manga, but I seldomly do because they tend to get too annoying too fast. In any case, so far I still enjoy reading this one despite its flaws, so. :)
Athena
WOW! And the story takes you on twists that you dont expect to come. You are left wondering if Misao will chose the human or demon side...I'd chose the demon side.
