Black Bird vol. 1 - 3 stars I'm pretty sure this is one of the very first manga's I ever read and pretty much a lot of my rating is due to the fact that it was very nostalgic to read. On the other hand, some of the elements of this book can be very problematic to read about. Misao is only 16 and her love interest is a 20 something year old man. It's never clarified how old he is, but he also acts as a math teacher so he has to be at least in his 20s anyway. The other problematic part is that Kyo touches her without consent multiple times and it's usually excused for plot reasons. In fact multiple demons touch her without consent and I get it because they're demons, but it's very hard to read about.
