Inusaki, a detective and unwitting jack-of-all-trades for his neighborhood, has the unenviable ability to communicate with birds...and hates it. Yet when he runs into a crow that knows his name, he can't help but befriend him, naming him "Kuro." Later, when Inusaki seems to hear Kuro's voice, he finds only the landlord's son. Why do they sound so similar, and why can't Inusaki stop blushing whenever Kuro the crow crosses his mind?!
For older teen audiences.
The slow nature of this story is essential to what makes it so heartwarming, funny, and a must-read. That said, the only issue I have with Toritan: Birds of a Featheris that volume 2 isn't slated for release until March of next year. Read Full Review
The first volume of Toritan is a fun read and a good introduction to Kotetsuko Yamamotos work, showcasing her sense of humour and her gift to create attractive yet believable characters. Read Full Review
