Synopsis

Spirits known as kamui are thrown into chaos when the sacred spirit
Okikurumi is taken from Atsuma's village, and the imbalance threatens to destroy Earth. Infused with the spirit of an ancient sword, Atsuma must leave his village to reclaim Okikurumi.

He encounters NOA, an organization of youths who wield the power of the kamui, and who may hold the key to Okikurumi. Atsuma is recruited into NOA by Sumire, a young woman with an empty soul who yearns for a miracle. Atsuma and his new companions must work together to find Okikurumi before the world is destroyed.

"Whoa talk about complicated" was the first thing that came to my mind as soon as I finished this manga...Its one of those mangas that have too much going on that by the time you finish it you can no longer remember anything that happened throughout it.But its also the type of manga that once you start you get hooked and you won't leave until you finish it even if its 4 am and your head is dropping from sleepiness..Like me right now

The characters were good and I was constantly striving to find out what will happen next. Although the manga focuses on destruction, it also shows the bonds that can't be destroyed.
There are unexpected points and the story is good, unfortunately it did become a bit of drag near the end, and I was asking myself why is this still happening, isn't it going to end soon?
