Ark Angels is another example of why Korean Mangas (Manhwa) are some of the best on the market today. A beautifully drawn, extremely funny shojo. In an a deal to save the human race from being destroyed by beings from another dimension three girls from the other dimension are instructed to go to earth. Their mission is to save at least one animal from each species and place them in a "Noah's Ark" within a time limit. Taking cover as high school students the three cope with school life whilst trying to save the animals. For those who have already read the excellent Pet Shop of Horrors series, you will be pleased to know that animals are also shown in a "human" form in this series as well. In this volume the girls go after a timid fruit bat who has a tendency to break out in song, his senile mother, and a beautiful but vain crane. Featuring laugh out loud moments, bishonen guys, a sub-romantic plot, cross dressing, and beautiful detailed drawings by Sang-Sun Park, this series deserves to be on every manga fan's shelf.

Ark Angels is a lovely installment from Sang-Sun Park. Since Saint Marie, I believe, (another great series you should buy) has been cancelled, *sob* I've been eager for another manwha. This one fits the description perfectly, as it's also slightly spiritual in tone. Three sisters, Shem, Hamu, and Japheth are charged to put some of Earth's endangered species in Noah's Ark, and then when humankind learns to respect them they will return all the animals. This series is great because:
1) Fabulous art - I love the way she portrays the animal's souls.
2) Awesome storyline.
3) JAPHETH IS SO KAWAII! She is the absolutely most cutest (not correct grammar, I know) character in manwha I've seen so far...I just love her so much! Her facial expressions are to die for!
I highly recommend this series. Pick up a copy and enjoy!

I HATED this manga. It was Horrible(to me) but i am almost 18 and this was geared to younger children and that might be why.

Three girls come from another dimension and are collecting all the endangered animals and putting them on an ark because we don't respect the animals...

You get to see the animals souls and how the animals live...But they always have to go on a mission because the give the animals one last request, like saving thier mom, or helping them find a true love...

It's cute and educational...It reminds me alot of sailor moon and card captors....

If you like cute innocent storylines then this is for you.
