her quest… to become human! But when to save Yakumo’s life Pai merges his soul with that of her immortal supernatural
familiar, the urgency of their mission becomes even greater as Yakumo fights to reclaim his own humanity. Pai and Yakumo discover

Commentary:
3x3 eyes, or Sangan Eyes, is a pretty hard manga
to find. I got the first one in Borders, but the rest I own were ordered from the publisher. I really like the plot, though
it can be kind of strange at times. The characters, Yakumo and Pai, are wonderful, and really do a good job of making you
want to root them on. The bad guys really don't come in till further on in the series though, so be prepared to have lots
of mini-plots till then.
