Daily Manga

As promised the daily's have returned! So to start out I think I'll go with a mystical, adventurous, realistic manga to get back into the mood. I'll give you all the craziness in the BL. ;D As for this manga, I found it slightly disturbing but extremely beautiful. I'm not a fan of the translation but~ It's good enough if you don't mind a "professional" translation. The art was good and the stories great. Enjoy.
