Synopsis
Aijin are beast-like beings that, despite their extraordinary abilities, are subjugated by humankind due to their smaller population. While male Aijin are required to serve in the military, their female counterparts are forced to work lowly jobs.Edit
Born as Aijin, Rangetsu Ko and her younger twin brother, Sougetsu, fend for themselves. Rangetsu is soon devastated when Sougetsu's powers are awakened and he is taken away to become the prince Tenyou's beast-servant.. Not long after, she hears rumors that her brother has been killed by Prince Tenyou himself. Brimming with anger, Rangetsu disguises herself as a man and enlists in the military, eventually becoming Prince Tenyou's next beast-servant.
Although her opportunity to exact her revenge is within reach, Prince Tenyou defies Rangetsu's expectations, and she begins questioning the circ*mstances surrounding Sougetsu's death. Pursuing the truth leads Rangetsu into a political game far more dangerous than she could imagine.

This is my first review of a manga, and I don't know how much to write so I will make it short :)

Okay listen up. I suck at writing reviews and making critical or thoughtful analysis on the things that I like. So this is all just stuff that comes from the heart. Also, I'm not writing a plot summary cuz you can find that on google.
GUYS. G U Y S. This manga is so good it makes me absolutely feral. What really stuck out to me from the very beginning was this artist's god like art style.

I originally rated this series an 8 and would maintain that had the series just ended when the driving plot device of revenge was resolved.

Everything has become predictable and oh so preachy. I originally waited eagerly for new volumes to come out, and now I've stopped reading it somewhere in the most recent volume.
I mean, if you love things that beat the drum over and over about racism and oppression you'll probably like it after the first few volumes ...
