Synopsis

Yoshifumi Nitta, a mid-level yakuza, finds his life forever changed when a strange capsule appears and rams into his head. Though he believes the curious event to be a dream, he finds the capsule still there the next morning; from within it emerges a young girl. She remembers nothing but her name, Hina, and uses psychokinesis to coerce Yoshifumi into buying her clothes and toys. Unable to get rid of Hina, Yoshifumi reluctantly becomes her guardian.

The pair's peculiar life is just beginning. As Hina lazes around the house, Yoshifumi quickly rises through the ranks of the yakuza with the help of her supernatural abilities. Hinamatsuri follows the comedic duo as Hina drags both new friends and old acquaintances into her antics, while Yoshifumi juggles between taking care of Hina, hiding her powers, and managing the yakuza business.

Hinamatsuri 10/10

So that's it my friends ... Hinamatsuri came to an end ... I am very happy to have accompanied this wonder ... Thank you Ohtake for the wonderful story and for the wonderful and captivating characters ... Anzu, my favorite character from Hinamatsuri, melted my heart since she appeared ... Her growth as a person was sensational ... she was the main reason why I read the manga ... she is so captivating and leaves us so moved that we think she carries Hinamatsuri on her back, even that the other characters are also captivating. There's not much to talk about, it's just pure ...

Mixed Feelings
If I had to sum it up: Hinamatsuri is the art of spending 19 volumes with almost no story, like a huge slice-of-life manga, and letting most important moments happen off-screen. It's a frustrating read, because all the ingredients for a great manga were there. But the art is beautiful and expressive, and a few of the characters are really admirable (not the main, though).

The background, explaining where some of the main characters come from? Completely glossed over, just a few words near the end of the story, to provide motivation for the finale scene. No character is ever curious or asks questions.

The reason for ...

Despite the inclusion of yakuza, this is pure comedy without drama or anything

Story: 6/10
The side stories redeemed this manga, the growth of Anzu was great and Hitomi's gradual build up was bloody hilarious. The final arc was stupid in the best of ways and I loved it.

Those are the manga's only redeeming factors to be honest. There is no growth for anyone else (except Mao becoming not insane). Hina has her moments but is essentially the same, even in the 2-part final. This is a death knell for a comedy series, it gets repetitive and hearing the same joke twice is never funny. Nitta never ...
