I really like this series concept, art style, characters etc. I love the magical ninja, spirit-fantasy, action comedy story and setting. Really plays into the whole boy changed into girl part of the story, we see we get Matsuri’s side effect/ability of sometimes being able to change back into a boy, for a limited time. I personally like the female version more because the design is cool and attractive, even though technically he’s a boy inside the mind. I like it when a series can get me at the fanservice level but also really make me think and almost makes me uncomfortable but in a good way. (Raw Hero by Akira Hiramoto was another that was similar in the boy to girl department but less magical lol in overall I like this one more but that one’s worth checking out only 6 volumes)

I wish there were more female magical ninjas or some more female MCs. This series has an issue with being able to have a set point to look forward to. The arc we are in is murky and not easily definable other than Suzu’s growth/Matsuri’s boy changing/Ninokuru’s sexual identity arc’s? Also if the end goal is to get Matsuri back into a boy and that truly happens I’m not sure I will be happy. I prefer the female Matsuri so that’s another thing that slightly worries me.

Still I am excited for this series to continue and to possibly see an anime adaptation like their other series.

Every week I expect this series to get canceled but it never does. Thus my feeling of "I've already read this far, I might as well keep spending the three or so minutes to read new chapters each week." continues. I'm still not even sure what the point of this series is.

I liked this last book. The monster battle was nice, and I honestly thought it was an ending volume. I like the combo fight move.
The series so far has been lots of fan service, with an average plot. But the art is really nice!

4/5 My favorite volume so far. We get some fun action with a new Ayakashi that has evolved from eating other Ayakashi. Some character development and some laughs as well. I really enjoy the art and ladies in this series.

Matsuri, Suzu, Yayo, and Lu on the cover of volume 3.
