Let's talk about our favorite (or not? O.O) manga called "Black Bird" ^^
I find this manga kinda unique... dunno, haven't read many mangas, so if someone knows any that is similar to this, please share! as this kind of story seems interesting x3
Black Bird is cute and freaky at the same time lolz xD Poor girl suffers from that kind of "gift" T.T But fortunately, here comes a handsome Tengu in our play :shy: The artwork is also beautiful... Not to mention that smutty part <3
So, share your emotions!
P.s. Extremely glad that Trancsendence picked up this project!!! Thank you!~~~
i like this manga
but i stopped
Yeah, it's a pretty interesting manga. Its a nice 'fluffly'/light manga read. I really enjoy it (: I've always loved Sakurakouji Kanoko's works. All of them are good reads. :love:
:love: I love Black Bird!
Sagami is my favourite... even if he doesn't get a lot of screen time, he's pretty! :shy:
It's such an interesting concept, I can't wait to see how it ends!
:D Ahh. I'm glad Transcendence picked this up too.
ChibiHeaven's right. It's one of those light/fluff shojos. I'd recommend Hug/Kiss (since it's also adorable and the guy's a bishie) and it's complete (if you hate waiting for chapters like I do).
:swt: I can't think of anything else at the moment.
I like it too. Definitely got me interested in this group.
It's one of my all time favourites and I've been watching out for raws and translations of it for some time. Thank goodness transcendence decided to pick it up!
Yaay! More people who love this!! :love:
I have looked at the raws up until around volume 8. Phwoar, it gets even more amazing :D I won't spoil it for you :=D:
I'm really adoring Black Bird right now <3. (Definitely agree Hug/Kiss is amazing as well!). Though Misao's lack of action can be frustrating - provides good story opportunities but really why is she just standing there getting attacked? XD. Oh Tarou can I have you? :o_o:
its not really smut. at least not bad to where u cant enjoy the story. which is pretty unique and why i like it.
I love Black Bird! :shy: :o_o: :love: :donwan:
Black Bird just jumped in the ratings again (onemanga.com).... 584-227-110-91-65 almost in the fiftys and how long has it been out?
This has to be one of the best mangas I've read in a while!! It's really similar to Hana to Akuma, but the characters are completely different. I love that the chapters are so long too, it's so anticlimactic when there's only 10 or 15 pages.
:hi: yer, I'm happy to find so many ppl like Black Bird! I totally agree with you, ppl! I think is a very interesting story! :love: I can't wait for updates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm soooooooo happy when I see "Black bird---> updated" ohhh I'm beaming!!! *skip
I also liked Backstage Prince which is from the same mangaka... I strongly recommended, it's very short and it's completed! ^^ :bingo:
Yeah, I can't wait either, so I can finally do some work...
I love this manga more than Love Monster *skip. Even though the art is not as good as love monster, the content is the major element :love:. Vol 11 has been released in Japan :goodjob:, looking forward to see Kyou and Misao's first night :woohehe:
woahhhh this developed like that?!?!? :omg:
Well,
it had to come eventually.
Doesn't mean we can't go and faint from shock when it does comes out...
???
i have to say, i guess Black Bird was the reason why i found Transcendence anyway.
Awesome work done. :goodjob:
I like Misao! Ah, a really cute character though! Plenty reasons to ROFL when reading this manga :=X:
luv tis manga too... :love: Definitely one of my fav... :goodjob: cn't wait 4 the update...
*stabs Sync Scans.
HOW ARE THEY SO SLOW?!
ok fine... so we aren't that fast either, but----
Meh. :dignose:
*points above.
EGG CUSTARD PINEAPPLE BREAD! ZEOMG!
OMFG! *grabs bread away from Aya.
black bird, yummm. these series are the kind that don't leave you with a bad aftertaste. :goodjob:
when I saw the cover of the first volume, I automatically thought of yuu watatse.
somehow, its always her that i think of when i see smutty covers...or scenes. :love:
kya, nosebleed. :donwan:
My god, Black bird is the best manga i've ever read Oo ! And it's also the reason why i checked transcendence's website everyday xDDDDD
I live in France and i was praying for the first volume to be released and finally it will be in october *O* Now i'm praying for an anime announcement *O*
Zeomg! We're going out of business...
In October? Well Comrades, hustle hustle, we only have 80 days.
I don't think it'll be good material for anime. Argh, I haven't read BB in a while.
Editing ruins the fun out of reading anything! :crywithno:
Haha it's true ! XD
What a shame :=D:
xD I love this manga!! Kanoko Sakurakouji is awesome!!! :goodjob:

I miss love monster style:(
I'm glad the manga has been picked up again for I love this series. I want to know what happens in this manga.

ooooo i read some too! it was i guess pretty good. i wanna know what happened next. ooo EBIL DUDES!
I like BB. i like those monster love storfies. nice..~
....O_O. Bibi? BB? this is a black bird thread.... *skip xD
BB - black bird, HELLO =_+
ah.... xD. black bird.........xD. well, personally, i think the art is ugly but the plot is nice....i guess
yeah agree too. the drawing wasnt that good.

i second that.... the art isn't that as perfect though... But awesome plot and characters!! *skip
personally thinking: the guys look a lot like each other...but with different hairstyles >:(
Yepye. Had that feeling too.
i love black bird!! :love: if it wasnt for it, i wouldn't join transcendence.!! :wahaha: *skip
yeah advantages of being a staff: Read all the raws, wahahaha x)
lolz...xD black bird is getting boring for meh...even w/ the smut -_-
disturby you're back! *skip
Still of a fan of this. I guess I just find it unique the plot. With vampire and werewolf manias going around, Tengus are a nice change, lol. :love:
I would recommend you to read Love Monster then.
It's a monster romance.(:
Disturbance, actually that I was one of the very first mangas that I read and I adore it!!!! :love: It's definitely part of my top favorites list!! :goodjob:
read the new chapter of black bird! D: i really disliked the chocolate part. cliche and kinda disgusting -_-
I've never read a chapter of Black Bird.... what's it like? If it's anything like love monster, I'm swearing off it right now D:.

It is.
Oh... well then >_>... time for me to fangirl else where!

LOL, actually I hated Love Monster, but even though Black Bird is only a bit different it's ahella more awesome XD
I definitely suggest you at least give it a try.
(For one, the heroine is much better, as is the art, and the hero isn't such a sadistic pig) :goodjob: Good times!

Haha, well Kyou is sometimes sadistic in his own way, but I find it hilarious though I feel so bad for Misao.

Well, at least Kyou's not an over-controlling pig, even if he's *kind of* a sadist >.>
Better something than nothing, eh? XD
I thought the chocolate part was funny. If i was misao, I probably would been like "you got way too much chocolate from other girls, so I'll just go eat this alone" XDDDD
I may or may not really like chocolate ok >>;;;
and I disliked Kyou pulling a jealousy stunt. =/ not cool. Misao kinda has enough to deal with.
Hello!!! :hi: I´m new here and all I have to say is thank you for the great job you are doing with Black Bird, in fact, I registered in this page because this manga and your AWESOME work!!! Keep going with what you are doing :love:
oh i love this manga!!! the explicit content is getting more & more at latter part :shy: i personally like Zenki...er.. no, sagami...no, buzen...no houki....argh!!! can't choose :noway: they are too hot!
It keeps getting more and more interesting! The demons look way more attractive in their demonic/winged-form; it reminds me of cowboy bandits in a way (cover nose and mouth with a bandana). Can't wait to get my grubby hands on volume 10 *skip
Yes!! I agree, they are very handsome... I can't wait for the next chapter!!!
What does the darn senka roku say?
;_____; It's so hard to choose out of the tengus D: Like I think Houki is my favorite in fashion sense. :woohehe:

Oh yes!! They are all so pretty!!!
OMG OMG OMG OMG finished VOLUME 11 ch 44. I LOVE MY LIBRARY!
Misao looks annoying as heck still.
I checked out about 30 Jpns language books and im doing a self-study next year to become more fluent (one of my new year's resolutions) along with learning spanish. When im done with those 2, tagalog and chinese are next. Maybe even Russian/Ukrainian languages...
Boy oh boy oh boy am I excited lDDD
Not a bad manga, typical of shoujo manga that has smut in it.. BUT, the real difference is for this manga is, it has a story to tell, don't let all the smutty images and the weak girl-possessive lover get in the way or the corny cliches get in the way, there is a reason why this manga was awarded and not so many others with the same ingredients cook up ala Monster Love, or even Twilight (ok, ok, Twilight is different as well but somewhere along the line, Black Bird was made to be a Japanese Twilight... ) Anyhow, I believe the mangaka puts a lot of effort into her storytelling, and I truly applaud her hard work, go, support her by buying her tankoubon. :)
This is definitely one manga that I really enjoy. I just hope there isn't like some huge love triangle and her "feelings" start wavering and she doesn't know what to do. I just want a manga to stay consistent. I don't want their to be any type of "I'm leaving you because it's for your own good." type of thing. I just want the people who are in love to stay together...forever...no if's and's or but's about it! Misao cries a lot for my taste but hey it's ok. She doesn't come as really whiny to me or anything so I can deal with it. I hope it stays on the track that it is on. The story is good so I give kudos to the author for her work! Keep 'em comin guys!
aawh!! black bird :shy:...i just love this manga...talk about funny ,action, intrigue and just entertaining. i have read quite a few mangas but this is top favorite. Kyou & Misao relationship is just awesome and i believe they will definitely stay together no matter how much shou tries to rip them apart. ain't happening see :=D: although i do think he is in love with Misao and he is probably in denial or just don't know how to deal with it but nonetheless Kyou is the right one for her; though he can be a bit perverted at times...but i still love him. Great manga!! Awesome job Transcendence !!
xD I'm...starting to get tired of BB's plotline. and the art.
Well, I never really liked the art from the beginning...so it was really the plot that hooked me on.
BUT NOW...I'm becoming slightly bored... :swt:
To the people i charge, i just want to know when will the black bird be completed and how many more volumes are not yet released. thanks for entertaining this. :o_o:
Currently in Japan there are 15 volumes released but there will be more and nobody knows at the moment how many. ^^
I reckon there will be about 20 volume, as the characters have begun to appear individually on the front of the tankoubon, and so far they've done Kyo, Misao, Sho, Zenki and Hoki- they still need to do ones for Sagami <3, Buzen and the lickle kids. ^^ That's what I think, anyway. I think it's a beautiful series, though.
i luv this manga!!! and i am waiting in excitement for the new volumes!!! *skip
:touched: Black Bird :touched: has always been my favorite manga. I REALLY think they ought to make an anime for it!
Ok I'm super new to the world of manga. Actually, the only reason I got into it recently was because during this summer I got bored and I re-watched some of my childhood animes, Dragon Ball (Z) and Cardcaptor Sakura, and they brought back so many happy memories and feelings. I couldn't get enough of CCS, so I actually went and read the manga for it. So that would be my very first manga, and that happened about three weeks ago. So I think I actually like reading mangas and someone recommended Black Bird on Yahoo answers. So I looked it up, and I LOVE IT SOOOOOO MUCH!!! :o_o: I read all 54 chapters in one night. So I'm caught up. I don't want to sound like a pest, cuz I'm actually patient and extremely thankful for all of Transcendence's hard work, but I was just curious of when the next one will be released? Again, I'm not trying to be pushy what so ever. I'm new to this site, let alone manga. I'm just not sure if this is an old project, or if its been updated recently, or if there ever will be an update, I simply don't know and I was just curious. If there was anyway I could help I would, but I don't understand Japanese so I wouldn't be much use. But if anyone can find me a job to do I would gladly, and happily do it.
I'm really fell in love with this manga.. Wanna find someone like Kyou~~
Thank you for translator that translate a good manga to us...
So is his name spelled "Kyo" or "Kyou"?
:=X: Aah you newbies are so cute~
Generally it is very impolite to ask when the next chapter is coming out unless there hasn't been a release in a year or so. It's kind of spamming your friend with 'Are we there yet?' on a roadtrip.
We are rather short on staff, so if you want faster releases and you can proofread or translate or you have some photoshop experience you're more than welcome.
It's spelled ??? (ki-yo-u) so we tack on the extra U to stay faithful to the spelling, plus I think it looks nicer.
Agreed. Also, if you're calling me a Newbie in reference to BB, please know that I am hardly a Newbie in that aspect. I've been with the manga since early this year, and it's what made me an Otaku. Not meaning to be rude. :=X:
The newbie ref was a blanket statement, though Lin was the one who made me think it. ^^
I just want to say that the reflection of Kyou's face on pg. 13 of chapter 54.1 (the "Taxi" special) cracks me up.
But not nearly as much as Misao's face when she sees Buzen's "ICBM" on page 21 in the "Bath" special.
And also, Ayame's face when Sagami proposes to her on page 35...
BAAHAHAHAHA! :wahaha:
I LOVE this manga so much!!! <3
At first Misao annoyed me because she kept getting captured so easily >:(
But after reading all of the chapters (and finally catching up!) I wuv everyone in the story ^.^
*skip
the artwork in this manga is outstanding, and the story as well!
Heh, the ICBM reference cracked me up- as did the later reference to explosion... all I could think was "nuclear detonation"
wouldn't it be nice if disarmament was that easy? :=D:
This is one of my favorite mangas! <3333 It's so cute and fluffy, and don't get me started on Kyo :shy:
Can't wait till the next chapter comes out! *skip
I dropped it. Misao annoys me too much.
the story is too stereotypical. Cute girl that is weak,strong boy with a mischievous touch, they fall in love, overcome obstacles together, which includes her getting insecure, and so on and so forth, they live happily ever after.
I don't like it when it is too predictable.
