The book was archived before I had the chance to download it. I didn't write a review because of it.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me this eARC to review.

The art on the inside is better than the cover in my opinion. The story is very basic and feels like it was inspired by Inu Yasha but not done well in execution and the main two characters are very annoying in my opinion. Maybe it would come across better in an anime rather than a manga? I had to DNF this about 3/4s the way through.

I really enjoyed this manga I thought it was unique and cute! It did remind me to other anime’s like a lot of people mentioned but also different in its own way it was not bad!

I enjoyed this volume 1 manga story with all of the characters. The two main characters were Koharu and lori.

Koharu discovered that she has the same power that her grandmother had after touching a young guy that look like a fox. After healing the fox demon it won't leave her side.

Iori is a powerful fox demon that is hurt. When a human girl touches him and heals him. He decides to stay close to her.

This was a fun first volume to read. It had action and adventure throughout. It had a few giggles within.

I received a complimentary copy via Netgalley. This is my honest unbiased opinion.

This is a very cute manga that has a swoon worthy romance and interesting characters. The plot is thrilling and the setting is very imaginative.

This was such an interesting first manga. It was as shoujo as shoujo gets but there is nothing wrong with that. I particularly like the artwork and characters!

I really loved the artwork. The colors were beautiful even in my digital copy. However, the story was lacking. There were several parts that seemed to jump around, maybe I missed something? Either way if it's about the art for you it's a beautiful work but if you're looking for some plot, your may want to look elsewhere.

There are tons of manga featuring demon spirits (especially fox spirits) and the young women who care for them and eventually fall in love. I am not disappointed with this fact. As long as they keep being published I will continue reading them.

Koharu, our main character, develops the power to heal demons (a family trait) and a mischievous but spirited fox demon attaches himself to her. Shenanigans ensue as the two begin living together and learning more about each other and their feelings.

It's a cute fantasy romance! I loved the story and the art style. Very reminiscent of Kamisama Kiss. Which isn't a bad thing. I look forward to future volumes!

Unfortunately, I had issues loading this one. Hopefully, later on I can give a better review and rating for The Fox's Kiss.

Always a fan of cute, and fun manga books, and this was no exception. I enjoyed the story and the interactions between the characters. I can't wait to see what happens in the next volume.

3 stars ⭐⭐⭐

A good read. Something new for me to try. So thank you NetGalley for providing an arc of this book in exchange for an honest review. ☺

I like this first volume but I have not much to say about it. Indeed, I can confidently say that in a few weeks, I won’t really remember the story. That doesn’t mean that it was bad though; it’s just that I think it is very classic and doesn’t have any elements to make it stand out of the shojo crowd for the moment. However, I will read the other two volumes in order to judge the series in its entirety.
Koharu, the main girl, is sweet and she likes helping others and I liked Iori most of the time but things happened quite quickly and I am not yet attached to them. Especially since Iori kissed and slept next to Koharu without her being okey with it. I liked the use of fantasy and that there were all different kinds of creatures though.
I recommend to people looking for a short romance.
2.5/5

Another one of those 'let's start hating each other to then fall in love with each other' 'shojo' manga, "The Fox's Kiss" is an acceptable effort that, nonetheless, fall shorts in the originality department, meaning that it doesn't have anything special to make it stand out of the pack.

What we have here is your typical 'full-of-himself-but-really-soft-inside' masculine character (which in this case is a fox demon) and your female 'I-just-wanna-fall-in-love' one. If you like this kind of stores, "The Fox's Kiss" seems (by this its first volume) to be able to fulfill that desire. However, for me, it just felt stale: how many male characters can go around treating the female as a servant (even if it is just a plot development to show that she is playing a role in them changing their personality?; not that this recourse is a good one at all). And how many female characters can you have actually falling for this kind of 'bad boy' type? It reinforces silly stereotypes and I will never understand why so many 'shojo' manga artists (readers) seem to like this kind of possessive, dominant, mean male characters. Even if, like in this case, the characters are enjoyable enough (the relationship seems to be evolving quite fast, though).

The art style, even if simple and following also the 'shojo' standards, is cute and expressive (some strips are a little bit simple).

A pity the 'love' story offers so little, because the background (demons, powers, etc.) could make this a very entertaining manga.

One of the most wonderful manga I have read recently. A story full of humor, compassion and secrets, and a pinch of magic. Koharu is the second Tohru, only instead of Kyo, she has her Tomoe. I would love to be able to read it in English, not just pdf. I hope that one day this dream will come true. If you like Fruits Basket and Kamisama Kiss, this is the manga for you.

5 stars. I haven't squealed over a manga in a long time, but this one brought me back to the same feels I had while reading Black Bird (which I never finished). So good! Review to come.

We've seen this premise so many times and also done better. The Demon Prince of Momochi House or even Inu Yasha provided unique takes that made them far more read-worthy than Fox's Kiss. The art here is fine but lacking the scope and sheer beauty of Momochi House. The story is straight forward and greatly missing the humor and zeal of Inu Yasha. What we are left with is a bog standard story of a rather stupid and insipid girl and an obnoxious and rude demigod. Cue inexplicable and illogical mutual attraction.

Story: Kohaku stumbles through life until one day she discovers that her grandmother's tale of healing yokai was actually true - and that she inherited this power. This makes her a target for both good and bad yokai and one especially annoying fox-creature. Will he save the clueless girl from the evil demons (and herself)?

The usual cliches are here: unique snowflake with no other redeemable qualities suddenly finds she has a skill that is dangerous yet no one seemed interested in her family in telling her how to use it (or even that she would inherit it). Love interest comes along and saves her continually while she levels up her skills.

The artwork and illustration work is about what you would expect from this type of shoujo manga. You likely won't be reading it for the art and I think impressionable young girls may find this title most entertaining.

So yes, we've seen it before and there are better titles out there as a first resort. Reviewed from an advance reader copy provided by the publisher.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I wanted to read it for a time now. I liked this first volume, it's clumsy cute and funny. I've read a lot of mangas with a girl and a demon kind of romance and I always find it enjoyable. I'm happy to start this one and I entend to read all the volumes. I've already read some of Saki Aikawa's shojos some years ago and I forget about them until I read this manga and remembered thanks to her special art's style.

Koharu's late grandmother was special, she used to tell her that she was able to see and heal demons, so after her death, our heroine discovers that she has inherited those powers when she helped cure by accident the fox demon Iori from his wounds, what she wasn't ready for is that Iori took a liking to her and decided to make her his bride and with a kiss they were engaged!

Fun and quick to read! The characters were smart and kept off the page at you and pulled you into their story! Will be looking for more!!!

This is a sweet little story that would be perfect for fans of Inuyasha or Noragami who want just a short, quick read that's not as intense. It's a fun story with the classic manga trope where the secret world of demons meets with the world of humans and they clash with bouts of witty banter and hilarious culture shocks. This volume has the perfect set up for future volumes, leading into the story with Koharu's inherited healing powers and steadily building to some kind of relationship between her and Iori that she hasn't quite figure out and he seems willing to change on a whim. Leading with a cast of interesting characters, like Koharu's sempai who promises to be a rival for Iori, and a myriad of lesser demons drawn in by Koharu's king nature.

It was fun and cute story! I feel like I read this story already but it didn't feel bad because of that fact, I still enjoyed very much and the drawings were cute. Also, I appreciate a manga where the couple doesn't take too long to get together when they clearly like each other.
