So yeah, I bought the first volume of this manga at a school book fair today. It's called Anima, and it's good!
<3
The summary goes a little something like this...
The Anima are beings who posses animal-like powers. In this alternate universe, they walk among us, shunned by society as they search for others who have similar traits.
Cooro is a crow-like boy who is on a quest to find other Anima. When he meets Husky, a disrespectful boy with a past shrouded in mystery, he finds a kindred spirit who also possesses animal-like powers. Together, they try to gain acceptance in a world cruel to anyone or anything that is different.
So far my favorite character is Senri. The fierce bear anima who's otherwise shy, quiet, and has a love for small flowers. Thats right. Flowers. Plus he's often confused, pouting, or just plain happy looking. His facial expressions are just, well, cute. He's just... adorable!
He doesn't talk much either. He only says one or two words every now and then. This adds to his cuteness in a big way, I think.
=D
The little bat anima, Nana. She's adorable too. And Cooro... well he's just a goof. Heck. They're all cute. Husky too, even though he's a brat.
Senri is still my favorite though.
So, yeah. It's an awesome little comic. I want to find volume two now. If I can..

Cooro - the crow anima.
Husky - the fish anima.
Senri - the bear anima. [ cuuuute! ]
Nana - the bat anima.
