Product Description

Gods and demons wage a never-ending battle with the mortal realm as their battlefield. As with most long-standing feuds, the reasons are no longer important--hatred is a way of life. But it is foretold that one will arise who can restore harmony between gods and demons. Enter Raenef,heir to a set of demon royalty, he is hardly courtly material. The demon king assigns Eclipse to be his tutor, to mold Raenef into proper demon shape. The two begin a journey of discovery, and are soon joined by a human knight and a god-blessed priest.

Review
The cover looked pretty interesting, but that was nothing compared to the brilliant stories and art inside the cover. -- Sheena McNeil - Sequential Tart

Pale beginning (but does get better in later volumes)3
Chi-Hyong Lee, Demon Diary, vol. 1 (Tokyopop, 2000)

Demon Diary has a great premise, but it suffers from that ailment some manga have of the characters looking do much alike that it's often hard to tell them apart. That said, it's a bang-up story (young, happy demon with "traditional" human values-- consideration, sharing, naivete, etc.-- has to be trained to be a great demon lord), packed with humor and action in roughly equal doses. With such great ideas, it's hard to see this one not improving as Lee gets a firmer hold on the characters and story arc. ***

Demon Diary5
Demon Diary introduced me to the world of graphic novel. I would have been lost otherwise. The characters have unique personalities and the story is one of a kind. For those of you who are art lovers it is time to rejoice. This artist will blow your mind away. The characters are beautifully drawn and rich in detail. The sceneries are fitting to their settings. The plot is quite simple, but with a twist in the ending. It is a pleasant read. You will find a mysterious love affair, a brief father son moment, and a lot of comedic relief. Just sit back and enjoy.

Not bad at all...4
This is not death note quality but if you like Rave master or db, etc., it is one worth collecting. Funny and still some noteworthy fights, it is good.
