A few things got changed in translation, which may disappoint fans of the original. The genders of many of the angels have been changed, so what was once a sweet boy-boy love story is now heterosexual romance. It's a small thing, but for a story that used to be one of my favorite gay books, it's now just one of many boy-girl romance stories.

Still, it's a very good story. Very sweet, with nice art and a nice story. If you haven't read the original, or an alternate translation, and this is your first time, you'll probably enjoy it more.
