Does anyone know anything about what could be trouble in this series? Everything I read said very positive things about it and some sources were quite enthusiastic. I really want to get it if it doesn't have any major problems.

Huh. I've never even heard of it. Who's the mangaka and publishing house?

I only read a short chapter of it in Newtype, so I can't really comment on appropriateness issues. It seemed promising though.

The manga-ka is Aoi Nanase, and it's been liscensed by ADV. I'm afraid it's shoujo-ai because the heroine supposedly falls in love with a character named Seraph, whose gender isn't given in any of the reviews, and all the art I have seen is only girls. If it's that, I wish one of the reviews would just come out and say so.

The main bad [girl] character, I've heard, her name is Lucifer.

It is considered homosexual by some viewers because (as far as I know) these "angels" make a 'covenant' or promise with new owners, in the form of a kiss on the lips. But I didn't hear it was anything romantic, I heard the story was more about a girl who wants to make up with a friend, and the "angels" are just in there too.

Did you visit any fansites?

Tried, but most of them were translations from German and Spanish. The Spanish site seemed to be calling Seraph a him, but I'm not sure.

The only thing I read up was that the main girl eventually starts to like the angel Seraph... *shrugs* not a whole lotta site on this to find pics of to actually comfirm it.

Either than that, it sounds somewhat interesting.

Hmm. I tried looking for reviews, and I read a few in french.

Most of the comments about this book were: "The drawings were beautiful but the story was weak. There was also too many girls"

Maybe, can you read this book before buying it? Then, if you're not bothered by it, you can spend your money on it?

... aha. maybe this website will help you. i thinkit has good synopsis of the chapters. http://www.angelfire.com/anime/Kurisutaru/angeldust.html

*bumps for question*

So I finally saw the manga on sale (haven't been manga shopping for a while) and it sure has an odd square shape to it!
Anyways, knowing it's out now, anyone NOW know if it does have that objectional stuff in it? I quickly flipped through and it didn't APPEAR to be... *shrugs*

Oh sorry!^^ Read your last post wrong cause you mentioned something about French reviews, so I guess I thought you were meaning that the link was a French site or something >_<

But I guess that kinda helps... I'll still have to think about this title.
