CMX's release of the manga was heavily censored and edited to receive a Teen rating in the U.S. Yea a Adult manga gets cut up and covered up to recieve a teen rating. Good job CMX, won't be buying from you guys ever!

Hoping that some of the uproar over editing this book caused CMX to rethink their standing about the edits in this book... and sad to see that nothing has changed.

If you are at all interested in reading "100% pure manga" then CMX is not the outlet for you. Do not buy this for yourself or as a gift, you are wasting your money. It is censored, edited and removed of meaningful context. You will find it difficult to understand the story or the character's motivations. Do not buy this even as a curiousity, because it will only encourage CMX to continue to release censored, edited work that is unfit for their blurb of "100% Pure Manga"

That blurb is clearly advertising misrepresentation, and CMX should be called on it. The contents within are assuredly not "100%", more like 65%... and for $10 of my hard-earned cash, if it's not "100%" then it gets a 0% from me. I wish I could give this title ZERO stars.

Well, despite all the venom and controversy by the fans, *I* do not mind that the edits are there. Like I need to see all the naughty bits -- it doesn't change the story. Wish they could do it BETTER than they do, but Oh Great's art is still wonderful. The story is still fun. The nature of CMX's changes are to widen the audience. Oh Great's story still comes through...a good mix of drama, comedy, and high octane action. And, despite the art changes, beautiful art -- for both male and female fans alike!
