Side notes: As you can suspect I saw the anime first and I've been thinking to read the manga when I get some time to do so... a good excuse to pick it up today.XDDD Well I thought about this manga already earlier when I added Kamisama dolls to my list... actually I's thinking to add this then but my theme was a bit different back then. The art on this manga is on good if not even great level (though the backgrounds need more polishing up). I also like the balance of the story and it's moving with good pace and it's not filled with fanservice on every single page. So keeping it on my list of readings.
P.S. About the age rating.... it bases on genre tag "seinen" though it's not restricted from younger generations from reading on manga reading sites.

Main characters
Raishin Akabane (赤羽 雷真)
Raishin is a survivor of the Akabane clan, a prestigious clan of puppeteers. He attends the Royal Academy in hopes to improve his skills and become the best in the world and with intent to avenge his family. Despite his poor examination results and lack of experience, he has excellent combat skills. His unique fighting style combines magic and martial arts.
Yaya (夜々)
Yaya is Raishin's puppet who takes the form of a raven-haired teenage girl. She is abnormal in the sense that her appearance and personality strongly resembles that of a human. She is deeply in love with Raishin and often teases him, so much that she leads other people to see him as a pervert. She also claims she wants to be a real girl so she can become Raishin's wife, leading her to get very jealous when he makes contact with other girls.
Yaya has two sister puppets: Irori the bigger sister and Komurasaki the little sister.
