The site where I found it said it to be a romance but they didn't specify what kind of romance. Still I'm not against it. I'm a fan of yaoi and shounen ai so I read a good story when ever that is possible. And this one comes up with decent art and story setting (a bit common but it's okay). Only thing is that the chapters are really short ("pouts") and it may take some time the story really get going though there is already action so don't worry about that. I do suggest that if you ...

Japanese: シャドウラン Synonyms: Shadowrun: Tokyo Type: Manga Chapters: 4 + Volumes: 5 Status: Complete Year: 1996 Genre: Action, Comedy, Sci-fi Mangaka: Saiki Kazuma Serialization: N/A Synopsis: Based off of the roleplaying game of the same name, Shadowrun (also known as Shadowrun: Tokyo) is a manga following the exploits of the street mage Hashizou and his group of fellow Shadowrunners in the 6th world. Groups Scanlating Shadowrun Project Source: Baka updates Side notes: The art on this manga is on a really good level though it lacks a bit of emotion and has sometimes too much empty space that could have been filled up. The same goes for the story. As I said it the art has some emptiness involving its style and way the pictures are constructed - the same is true also for the plot. There is action but the logic and the reason are missing... and it makes the structure feel like there is only bones but no meat.  Still there is some fun moments inside...
