Alichino

This is a very strange manga about creatures called Alichino who can grant wishes, but who extract a price "equal to the wish." The story starts off with a girl looking for al Alichino to see if she can get her brother brought back to life. There's also a male character, Tsugiri, who turns out to be quite interesting in his own right.

The artwork is somewhat unusual and good although, at least to me, the story seems somewhat confusing in spots and it's just doesn't seem to be a story that "grabs" me. Perhaps that's because there doesn't seem to be any character in the story that I am lead to really care for. It's interesting enough to keep reading, but is not among the manga I would consider my favorites.
