Plots
One of the things I really liked about this manga is the detail they gave about how Heaven and Hell. It's great if ya interested in angels, demons and love and has cute little interesting stories that actually have originality in it. I highly recommend it. The art work isn't bad either.The story centers around the lives of Kohaku, an angel, and Shuichiro Kudo, a mortal doctor. While walking home from work one day, Shuichiro notices Kohaku stuck on a tree while being attacked by a crow (who was actually sent by Koryuu the demon). He rescues Kohaku and in return, she offers to grant him a wish. However, Shuichiro is satisfied with his life - he has a decent home, money, good looks and job - so he does not want anything. However, Kohaku is honour-bound to grant the wish, so she stays with him. The theme of the manga, as stated several times by Kohaku, is that "There are some wishes that can't be fulfilled by oneself."
Kohaku stays at Shuichiro's house because she still needs to grant his wish. She helps with the chores like cleaning, and usually, watering the trees.
Throughout her stay, another angel, Hisui; two demons, Koryuu and Kokuyo; and the two servant demons of Koryuu, Ruri and Hari, come to live in Shuichiro's house too.
Kokuyo is the son of Satan and is in love with Hisui, who is one of the four Angel Masters, who control the four elements: earth, wind, fire, and water; with wind being her element. Kokuyo has admitted that he made love to Hisui and that's how they ended up together.
Despite his new housemates, Shuichiro remains as stoic as ever, and still not yet deciding on his wish but, without him knowing, grows attached to Kohaku.
Kokuyo realizes that Koryuu, Ruri, Hari, and himself feel good around Shuichiro. He tries to tell Hisui but is always interrupted by God in one form or another.
Then Kohaku is suddenly forced back to heaven against her will by God because she has the important task of hatching the eggs from the Tree of Life by singing to them. However, Kohaku deeply misses Shuichiro and realizes her feeling for him.
Shuichiro also misses Kohaku. He holds on to the earring he managed to get, trying to prevent Kohaku from returning to heaven. He realizes his feeling for her also.
Kohaku couldn't take the pain of being away from Shuichiro so she goes back to Earth without God's permission. Both of them are happy to be reunited.
Shortly after, the three remaining Angel Masters come to Earth to reveal God's punishment for both Kohaku and Hisui. Hisui's punishment was that she was stripped of her Angel Master status and is banished from heaven. Hisui was joyful and thanked them.
However, Kohaku's punishment was that she would not be able to use her powers and will remain in small form for a hundred years. Kohaku was devastated that she could not grant Shuichiro's wish. But his wish was for Kohaku to stay with him forever, a wish that he could not fulfil by himself.
Shortly after, Shuichiro suddenly drops dead while tying his shoes on a walk with Kohaku. Kokuyo explains that he died because Shuichiro's soul was leaking out and that was why the demons felt good around him, because they were consuming his soul.
Usyagi, God's messenger comes down and gives Kohaku a message in the form of a flower. Kohaku was to slumber for a hundred years and by the time she wakes up, Shuichiro will have been reincarnated. Kokuyo and Hisui are sentenced to look after Kohaku while she is sleeping.
A hundred years later, the reincarnation of Shuichiro, now 16, passes by his old house and Kohaku wakes up. Shuichiro has no memory of Kohaku and their relationship starts all over again.
