Synopsis: We all know that a lot of the booty of the golden age of explorations made it into museums. The British Museum in the C.M.B. story, which had custody of the recondite scientific curiosities and artifacts collected by explorer/adventurers and stored in a Wunderkammer, decided to study the dusty arcana in the 19th century. Three investigators dubbed the "Magi" were appointed to do the research, each given a ring embossed with the letters C.M.B.

Fast-forward to present-day Japan where Sakaki Shinra is the curator of a museum of oddities. He now has possession of the C.M.B. rings, indicating that he has been granted the status of guardian of knowledge like the Magi that preceded him.

Side notes: This is a long series as well as its counterparts.^-^ Art is really good and clean which is a little surprise but not bad at all. As this is a loo-ng series I've done only a tiny bit of it as I'm not fastest reader in the world. But I plan to catch up with the translation... in year or two.XDDD But anyways, it's pretty good shounen manga and stays true to the genre so if you got time take a look around for this one if you also like mysteries and detective stories with a bit of magic.^-^
