Her real identity is Maron Kusakabe, a 16-year-old rhythmic gymnastics enthusiast and student at Momokuri Academy— something unknown to all, even her best friend Miyako Toudaiji, who is in charge of the police chase for Jeanne.Hidden inside the paintings Maron steals are demons sent by the demon lord, who plans to weaken God's power by having his minions possess human hearts. Assisted by the minor angel Finn Fish, it is up to Maron as the reincarnation of Jeanne d'Arc to assume her alter ego, hunt down the cursed paintings, and seal the vile demons away. However, the tough job of balancing this duty with her lonesome high school life only proves more challenging when a mysterious new phantom thief makes his appearance—Kaitou Sinbad.[Written by MAL Rewrite]Background_Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne_ was published in English by CMX Manga from November 1, 2005 to January 24, 2007.

The love described is an ideal love. It is adorable and capitvating, just like the plot itself.Art 10:The art is beautiful, expressing perfectly the emotions of the characters, which are moving. Characters 9:The main character, Kusakabe Maron, has a complex personality. Throughout her adventures, she becomes a model for the reader, due to her courage and pure heart. Maron herself teaches the reader a... lesson of life, of how to think and act in order to protect the ones important to you. I read in a book that in order to be able to become virtuous, you must follow someone's example. She is realistic, she is not perfect and that's what makes her an ideal character. Why didn't I give a ten at the characters section? Well, despite Maron being very well portrayed, I was a bit disappointed with the other characters (except Chiaki). In some cases, they suddenly change their attitude, so it doesn't seem that realistic. Also, in order to keep the optimistic feeling, it doesn't completely show their reactions, which in my opinion should express more sadness.Enjoyment 10:The entire manga gives an unique feeling of optimism and happiness. It is heartwarming, combining serious scenes with comic ones harmoniously. Overall: 9 Okay, it got me laughing, but in some cases comedy wasn't put in the right place.(It's my opinion, especially because I'm not fond of comedy)However, I believe everyone needs such a story from time to time, in order to give them some more courage and optimism. If you are looking for a lighthearted story with cute romance and optimism, I suggest you to read the manga. And, if you want something deeper, with intense feelings and "darker" characters, the anime is for you. Don't worry if you think you miss some details which the anime skips. You can always read the manga (or the last chapters) if you really wish yo know everything about it. Reviewer’s Rating: 9 What did you think of this review?

Not too good. I think I liked it more at a younger age than now when I am older. Some cute moments here and there.The story in itself ain't the best. Characters: I'm loving Fin and Access alot. Mostly Access. He is just too adorable. Can I keep him for myself? I like when the main characters are transformed. It's worth reading if you like Arina Tanemura's art style. ... I can recommend to at least read it through. The story about Fin and Access is very touching. Reviewer’s Rating: 6 What did you think of this review?

It's unbelievable but they're all lost and hopeless assholes. In addition, the way of dealing with romance made me tedious. Well, personally, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, but if you want to give it a try, go there.PS: It bothers me a lot to give him a two because I don't like to give... bad grades and I didn't give him so little even to tantei wa mou shindeiru that was bad as fuck.A ver en mi opinión influye que le tengo un odio desmedido a este manga sin ninguna razón concreta pero es que no puedo evitar pensar que en este manga todos los personajes son tontísimos. Es increíble pero todos son gilipollas perdidos y sin cura. Además la forma de tratar el romance se me hizo tediosa. Bueno yo personalmente no lo recomendaría a nadie pero allá cada uno si quiere darle una oportunidad.PD: Me jode mucho ponerle un dos porque no me gusta dar malas notas y no le di tan poco ni tantei wa mou shindeiru que mira que era malo de cojones.
