Magico review

As the title state's I'm doing a review on a manga called "magico"

now I'm keeping this in manga section because I've looked everywhere i could, and never could find magico as a anime

It is a completed manga there are only 66 chapters (the author is Iwamoto naoki)

In my opinion they could have made a second or third series with the story line they have (I'll warn you now if you do not like romance do not read this manga)


I personally love the plot a girl forced into a magical ritual for 16 years only to find out she's (to not spoil anything I'll say) cursed and the main character Shion has to perform the ritual to rid her of her curse *giggle's* the ritual she has to undergo is marriage.

To me the plot line is simple and direct:

Description (for those who are curious)

Sixteen-year-old Emma finally arrives at the capital city Hawk Eye after escaping from being held captive for her entire life. But as soon as she arrives, every man in the city, including the king, falls madly in love with her. She is about to be forced into marriage, but is saved by a sorcerer. The sorcerer identifies himself as Shion, one of the youngest and most talented in the nation. They have met before, but Emma has no recollection.


Shion explains to Emma that she is cursed with the Ekidna, a mysterious magic that happens every 500 years where a girl is born with her heart packed with such powerful dark magic that it has the potential to destroy the world. With such power, one could rule the world, and Shion explains to Emma that people are going to try and hunt her down to get her heart. However, Emma is told that there exists a ritual that will rid her of the Ekidna curse but doing so will require a long and arduous process. The first of that being Emma and Shion will have to marry each other...
 
Looks like an anime of romance genre.
Not my type.

I am into shonen or seinen.

Magico is action, adventure, comedy, fantasy, romance, shounen
 
Witches and magic?
I am not into such things.
If that's not the case, I would have picked up this manga.
 
What is the curse exactly?
Does it threaten her life in anyway?
Sometimes even superpowers which are fearsome are considered as curses.

well i'll give you a rough idea without spoiling anything

"the first two people on earth who summoned magic power from the hatred they had towards the slave masters took a new turn and wanted to purge the earth of all life but the loved one of the first male was set to be executed and hence started the curse "echidna" every 500 years echidna's body would find a new host and develops into a powerful magical being but there is only one way to stop this from happening "magico" the ritual rite of marriage"

to sum it up yes her life is in danger as well as the others around her

Sounds a bit ordinary.
Anyway, thank you for explaining all that to me, clearly :D
