Manga Page -- D.N.Angel

Niwa Daisuke has just turned 14, and as a birthday present he is rejected by the girl he loves, Harada Risa. Getting home late, Daisuke has to run a quick obstical course just to get inside (his mother and grandfather's idea of training). Once in the safety of his room and greeted by his pet Wiz, Daisuke sits back and thinks about Risa. Suddenly, a strange feeling overcomes Daisuke and he transforms. After a few moments of drooling over her son's new appearance, his mother explains that Daisuke is the next 'Dark'. This is where I get confused, since I don't understand who 'Dark' is...for some reason people outside of the family knows 'Dark' well. From what I can tell is that he is a kind of master thief, since that's all Daisuke seems to do in Dark's form.

	Whenever Daisuke has feelings for a girl and his heart starts to pound, that is when he transforms. There is a catch to his transformation: Dark has his own personality. While Daisuke can sometimes remain himself in Dark's form, Dark usually takes over the body to Daisuke's dismay. But when Dark sees the girl he likes, Daisuke returns to normal...even if it's just when Dark is about to kiss her. Always there to get Daisuke out of trouble is his pet Wiz. While he perfers his eternally cute form, Wiz can turn into anything Daisuke wants him to. This ranges from a beast with wings to carry Dark, to an almost perfect copy of Daisuke (the big mistake is he calls himself 'Daisuki' aka 'I really love you'), to a double of Dark.

This is just one of those series I picked up because the artwork looked really nice, but I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I admit I'm rather confused about the plot, so don't take my word about everything I mentioned here. All I can say is the artwork has been done well, there are some great comedy scenes, and I like the two main characters...or is it just one character.
