Her mission: to hunt down demon-possessed paintings and exorcise the evil spirits! Too bad accomplishing this mission puts her into conflict with the authorities, who view her as a mysterious stranger vandalizing works of art.

So, Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne? To be honest, i adored this manga, and I reckon it was a LOT better than the anime; concidering the plot was slightly different, I preffered the manga's plot.
The story itself had me flowing tears the last couple of chapters, and I adored the "happy ending" {although... it... I dont know... it wasnt really THAT good an ending... if you only read until the last battle is finished... but I still adored it to bits}. I reckon it had a pretty unique, but not overly original, plot which a lot of people would enjoy ^^ Put probly girls more than boys... ^^
The art is adorable, like all of this mangaka's art is. I dont know what more to say? Flowy hair and big eyes, I suppose =O Very very pretty =)
The character development is amazing {in my opinion}, you got to know pretty much all of the main characters past, and you get an explanation as to why they are the person they are in the present day. {Except for maybe the main character, who seems like the toughest person there... yet the one with the harshest past.} Still you get VERY attached to each and every character, and you start to understand what brings them all to do what they do because of how they are developed.
Overall, I really enjouyed this manga, and its a very good cry =3 read more

it was a good manga but nothing out of the ordinary fantastic but i do recommend to read it does have a interesting plot/story and the characters are funny in alot of ways the romance needed a little more but all in all it was good.

Both are by Arina Tanemura, so: shoujo, romance, magic, comedy. Mitsuki and Maron are also quite similiar. Full Moon has much more drama and painful, touching situations, while KKJ is more light-hearted. KKJ is nice, but Full Moon is way better.
Both are magical girl-esque series by the same author.

Both series have a phantom thief who steals artwork, along with some romance along the way. However, they're not simple repeats of one another (even though they seem like it at first), so you can still enjoy both without getting bored.
Both main characters transform in to "phantom theif" who steal paintings which are possessed in some way or other, both of thier friends' dad is a detective out to catch the thief, so they friends also are wanting to be a detective,both are with a littlecreature/angel "DNAngel-Wiz and Karmikaze-Finn",both are also romance, comedy and fantasy.
