I got stumbled at this manga, because of it's amusing name and lovely art style. I'm really glad that I start reading it. I can't even express in words how amazingly great this manga is. I read only 13 chapters, but I love it already and at the moment it's my favorite manga. Now I'm waiting for other chapters to be translated. This manga has some of my favorite characters too.
So much from story plot feels fresh and unlike to other manga I have read so far. It's pretty interesting, about boy who searches for his brother and accidentally encounters with young thief named Gareki. From that meeting their fates are related together and adventures can start. I love relationships between them, they're so touching. Sometimes you will find yourself laughing. "Karneval" has a good humor too and some mysterious air, because of oganization named Circus and Nai's past.
The art is lovely, no, it's amazing. I hope "Karneval" won't be the last Mikanagi Touya's work. I love the character designs, expecially clothing, it's really georgous ♥
The characters fit very nicely into the story. Nai isn't some typical male lead. He is innocent young boy, who doesn't know much about outside world and often ends up in trouble or headache for Gareki. And then there's Gareki. At first he's acting somewhat cold and antisocial, but it's just a mask, actually he's caring, all time he's protecting Nai. Later there will show up other important characters like Karoku, Yogi, Hirato and Tsukumo.
I don't have any character, which I would truly dislike there. They are all adorable and I want to learn more about them.
I got very much enjoyment while reading "Karneval" and I hope I'm not the only one who was excited over this manga.

Both have lovely art style, involves organizations, Black Order kinda reminds of Circus, both main characters are confused about their past, Mana reminds of Karoku...
The similarities are crazy. In DGM the Black Order and the Noah fight each other. The Order fights to protect while the Noah fights with ill thoughts in mind. In Karneval, 'Circus' fights the Kafuka (a dark hidden organization that does illegal genetic research) . 'Circus' being the good guys. The way the Noah makes their akuma is in a way similar to how the Kafuka make their Varuga.(Post-humans with special abilities.) The Millenium Earl takes advantage of his victims when the are weak and turn them into his pawns. The Kafuka gives their victims a pill that modifies poor humans into Varuga. To identify themselves, the exorcists have the emblems on the uniform and let the people and akuma know who they are. For 'Circus' they have braclets, that act as both a I.D and a significance to the public.
So if you absolutley love DGM but could go for a little difference in scenerio then Karneval is for you. The art is great and though the story needs to fix up a few loose ends, this manga goes for a good read. It's funny, mysterious, and though not as addicting as most manga, still nice to take a look at.

In both the storyline happens in an alternative universe where the main character almost dies, only to be saved by a character that decides to help him for personal gain, not kindness. Both main characters are trying to meet and help someone dear to them, while avoiding bad guys that are after them. Both have a bit of fighting and a strong focus on the relationships of the characters. Also, both main characters were secluded from normal life (one in a forest, the other in a castle) and need help moving around. Both are definately recommended XD
