( 86. The Foundling. First sentence: When the young gentleman strolling through the park with his gun on his shoulder and an elderly spaniel at his heels came within sight of the house it occurred to him that the hour must be farther advanced than he had supposed, for the sun had sunk below the great stone pile, and an autumn mist was already creeping over the ground. )

Kiichi and the magic book #3 badtzphoto November 26 2008, 06:27:26 UTC

Written and illustrated by Taka Amano

from CMX website:
With various groups linking him to all sorts of prophecies, it looks like it's open season on Kiichi! Saku's ready to turn him over to the Researchers and Saame believes his own clan will regain their legendary wings with the help of an Oni. Meanwhile, all of Kiichi's companions seem to be gaining extra powers. And speaking of "extra," how will Kiichi handle three horns instead of one?

Some points:
- Adventures continue with a new companion/protector Saame.
- Kiichi is too naive at times, but he learns his lesson.
- He seems to care for his friends very much.
- Mototaro reminds me of Chiaki - they are accidental heros of the story and abused right and left by the authors or so they claim :) Glimpses of Mototaro's power.
- Apparently, we'll get to meet Mototaro's father in #4. Can't wait to learn more about his past.

Bottom line, being an Oni isn't easy.
