Summary: A young surgeon named Shuichiro saves an angel named Kohaku from a crow. When Kohaku thanks him, he has difficulty believing "she" is real (note: I'm putting "she" in quotes because technically, angels don't have genders)and refuses to give her a wish to grant to repay him. Instead, she diecides to help him around the house. Kohaku also has a mission: the angel who is master of the wind has left Heaven, and Kohaku must find out why. Making things worse is a demon named Koryu, who causes "her" no end of grief.

The Good: The quartet manages to get some things right while taking liberties of their own, such as having Kohaku shrink to a cute and powerless one-inch tall version of herself. The artwork is very cute, even on Koryu. The story is very written and has a charming appeal.

The Bad: It may be a little cute for some. Not recommended for action lovers, especially since very little action occurs.

Offensive Material: Some mildly bad language. Kohaku mentions that she uses spells and there's also talk of nature spirits. Shuichiro says something about making love.

Overall: For a society not grounded in Christianity, this is a great story about angels. I love the cute art and I highly recommend it.
