In the beginning, there was a demon in a cave: Blood, trapped in ice for many decades. In order to break the curse that bound him, he searched for the "tear jewel". One day, a youth called Ishuca appeared before him. He was suffering from an illness, and had come to the cave to die. Blood was touched by Ishuca's kindness, and began to feel drawn to him. However, death soon came to Ishuca, and, saddened by the death, Blood began to weep. His tear became the "tear jewel", and Ishuca's life was saved through its power. The two set off on a journey. On the way, Blood was reunited with some old companions, but - since the demons wanted him to return to his old self, and Blood wanted to continue to travels with Ishuca - his former companions became his enemies. Upon confessing his own past to Ishuca, Blood promised never to kill another human. Having completed their journey - and with the aim of finding the jewel that Wild, the jewel-dealer, had asked for - they find themselves at the Toei Cliffs . . . !?

Totally worth reading!
This bittersweet manga is one of my favourites!
The art and the scanlations can't be judged by the first volume, both get better! What does not get better (for those who find it disturbing/lacking) are the pace of the story and the love scenes. The strong point of the manga sure is the story, concerning (as the volumes go on) two couples in love with all their hardships and good times. You won't see many kisses though as the hints are small and well hidden.
Another good points of the manga are the humor and the sweetness when the characters are interacting.
Most of their background stories get told, the character's actions are understandable and their different personalities are all lovable.
...hmmm, maybe apart from the "bad ones" ... and rest assured, there are some!
To sum this all up: This manga is a masterpiece!
Only negative point(s): Lack of obvious BL-scenes/kisses and a rather slow developement.
(And it's not fully scanlated 'til now, though SiH are working on it.)
