Book Description

Publication Date: May 20, 2008

MAGICAL FRIENDS

Kokuyo and Harika are a little unusual–and not just because they’re sorcery students. They’re Obsidians, wizards who must use enchanted swords to help them cast spells. Their fellow students think Obsidians are inferior to “normal” wizards. But Kokuyo and Harika have something that their cohorts don’t: the power of friendship!

4.0 out of 5 stars Haridama, magic Cram School gets passing grade, May 21, 2008

The story of Kokuyo and Hakira is entertaining. Someone always looks down at them because they are Obsidian wizards. Together, they must rely on their collective strength to dig deep and discover that true power comes from within, not based on externals.

This is one of the most unique takes on manga that I have seen for some time. Enjoy it at your leisure. Atsuchi Suzumi is wonderfully talented!

This is a one-shot manga that has a very soft nice art style (and a great cover :]) and has a great plot line concept that could go very far...unfortunately it doesn't...that's the only down side, it is a one-shot and has no definite conclusion. Similar to 'mugen spiral' you just want so much more =^^= i would still recommend it for a short good read for any age i believe.

The manga is about two kids who are magically gifted. There are two ways to be gifted with magic in the world-on your own with both yin-yang or with a jem called a obsidian with just one of the yin-yang. The plot goes through the two's challenges of being wizards with the disadvantage of using an obsidian.
