 This one you gotta read!Oct 29, 2007
By Gamera-X
Muhyo & Roji's Bureau of Supernatural Investigation is without a doubt one of the best manga's I have read it involes Ghosts, Demons, Magic, and Law Inforcement (of the spirital kind). Not only that but it keeps you entertained with it's brilliant story lines and comic relief. This is a series that I would recommend any body who likes storys like Yu*Yu*Hakusho or BLEACH that invole spirts and such. And so this is a really great manga to fallow through (Volume 2 comes out December 4, 2007)
Interesting new Shonen Manga--great ideas--worth a tryOct 06, 2007

"I need money"
Muhyo and Roji is a great concept for a Shonen Manga. Instead of teen ninja's or shinigami this features a pair of Teen or Young Adult (I personally think it's the latter hence why the artwork is more cartoony than the typical shonen) Legal Exorcists who attempt to stop out of control ghosts from wreaking havoc beyond their normal means. This is a refreshing volume as the trials and tribulations are unique for each monster that muhyo and roji take on--one deals with lost friendship, another is about possession and the best (the last story) is the creepiest featuring a young stalker. There is no heavy horror here..think more like Goosebumps. That said, there is plenty of room for unique storytelling as the situations do get tense and frightening while Muhyo and Roji both have very shonen character traits as a mean-spirited loner and good-hearteded dunce respectively. There is a hint of a larger conspiracy to come which is good news as this series in Japan is up to 12 volumes and we all know SJ series start to get serious around volume 7. That said, this isn't a particularly funny manga..unlike Gin Tama which is hilarious and allows readers to enjoy it on so many levels. Definitely worth checking out and a great read for fans of shonen style manga but who are tired of pirates, ninja and shinigami.
