Human and his other half an angel. In this story the main character finds out that he is this famous art stealer. But not just that when his other half sees his crush he turn in to his Angel half. This manga is full of romance and interesting plot and characters.

D.N.Angel was one of the first manga series I ever read, and it was so much fun to revisit with my nostalgia goggles firmly on. The story is about a boy who finds out his family secret on his 14th birthday; that the men in his family transform into an infamous art thief whenever they experience romantic feelings, until they get their first crush to love them back. It's such an adorably absurd premise. I just wish the two love interests were more fleshed out as characters, as they come across as really shallow in this volume, and the intro to one of them is really cringey. I love Daisuke's mum though! She's so proud of her kleptomaniac son and she makes him pyjamas and is just the best.

Actual rating: more dipping into a 2.5 stars, but on the higher end of the spectrum (2.75?? If I did my ratings like that xD)

This was such a weird story... I mean its basically about a 14 year old boy who turns into a slightly older boy when he's turned on ("in love" apparently), and steals art too... When you break it down like that, its pretty silly and strange. It can be pretty funny though, so I am some what intrigued to see what else happens.
The transformation of Daisuke really reminded me of Rosario+Vampire, and his little side kick, Wiz, looks like Pikachu....
I really quite liked "N" is for Nishiki. I was confused at first because I didn't understand that it was a separate thing but I really enjoyed it. I wonder if the story was ever continued.

Overall, I would say that I'm somewhat intrigued by where this story goes, so I'll probably check out another few volumes before I decide whether or not to dnf the series.

Pick it up, give it a go and enjoy! >(^_^)<

This was such an interesting but strange series. I'll have to do a re-read, but I don't remember understanding exactly what happened in the end...lol
I loved all of the characters, but while the plot was interesting, it seemed to add some twists that didn't make much sense.

Interesting premise: The men of Daisuke's family all become Dark, a suave dark angel, whenever they see their first love until the boy finally wins a kiss. This is really awkward since Daisuke has to go to school with the girl... A fun read.

Entretenido y con un buen dibujo, pero en realidad no aporta nada nuevo al mundo del shonen.

Not written for me! A cute premise and an attractive characters, I didn't really enjoy but it would be churlish to rate lower.
