Koge Donbo

She is your typical girl-next-door type, if the girl-next-door were also a goddess! Having a magic ring gives Karin the power to do anything she wants. Her greatest wish, though, is to be able to spend her entire life with Kazune. As she discovered, magic has a way of complicating things as well. Being a goddess and in love isn't easy!

In retrospect, I forgot that Kamichama Karin Chu was the sequel to Kamichama Karin. Though Kamichama Karin is not a perfect manga, it is charming with lovable show more characters and a wacky plot that makes it easy to get sucked into its world. Despite its attempts to be more serious, this sequel fails with its otherwise cute art and sugary cliches. Because of that, I thought Kamichama Karin Chu was a separate series.

There is no charisma to the characters - Karin and Kazune have lost all their old spark, and they are just your average shoujo couple who pine for each other despite already being in a relationship - a lot of pointless drama.

Karin is the only notable female character surrounded by guys who appear to be in love with her, despite knowing she is in a relationship. Karin is not a bad character, but she is so different from what we see of her in the original story, and there is no setup to explain why others suddenly want her.

While I wasn't expecting it to be as good as the original, I do hope it makes up for some of the things the original left out. My disappointment is that this takes on a completely different route that screams clichéd magical girl. It's frustrating to see a sequel stray so far from what made the original compelling. The lack of character development and overuse of tired tropes make it hard to stay invested. A more cohesive story could have redeemed it.

To better align with the original, the sequel could focus on deepening the existing relationships and exploring the characters' growth. By reintroducing the original's unique charm and humor, it would create a sense of continuity that fans would appreciate. Additionally, addressing unanswered questions from the first series could provide a richer and more satisfying narrative.

In conclusion, the sequel falls short of expectations by deviating too far from the original's charm, lacking character development, and relying on clichés. A more cohesive story and deeper exploration of relationships and growth could have made it a worthy continuation. show less

This series is very cute and have a good story plots. It is very entertaining to read. I love the drawing of Koge-Donbo and she did very good job on creating the story. I also like her catch phrase “I am God” whenever she turn into goddess and find her catch phrase funny.

Really cute characters. Really pointless stories.

I really liked this book because it was really funny from the beginning, also it was very cute, and it was a fantasy. I think a lot of people who enjoys reading manga, like me, will really enjoy reading this book
