Synopsis

Benio is the heiress of the richest family in Japan, and tradition holds that she must marry the first person to kiss her. So that she can attend high school, Benio is assigned the ninja Tamaki as a bodyguard, but he turns out to be quite the player. It's not always easy for a strong-willed rich girl and a smart-alecky ninja to get along in this romantic comedy about a pure young lady and her smoking-hot knight.

It is very hard to say. I been more exited at the beginning to read.
All story is actually really interesting, but that later on was too many unfair ends, of course I understand that many situations in life are hard but hmmm I can understand this culture is more about traditions but this wasn't as it should be, maybe I am wrong, but this is in my opinion. Art and details are amazing, but there been some situation that I been confused of too many sharp ends of art that I really wasn't know what is going on lol maybe because he is a ...

I think overall both main leads are well written for what the length of the story is. This had me shook ...

Mixed Feelings
Hana to Shinobi. Or A springtime with Ninjas. This story started off good. It was engaging. AT FIRST. It really engaged me, until the relationship between Benio and Tamaki.

Characters (6/10): the characters are way too cliche. Benio the annoying MC who wants to learn about the outside world because she can’t leave. And then there’s ...
