I know Rinne is supposed to be a comedy. I just don’t fine it to be particularly funny. The joke fall flat more often than not for me. The jokes in the battle were more entertaining than the ones in the stories. But that’s just me.

It starts out spoofing Bleach, then goes on to spoof many popular manga and anime trops as well. The fact is, if this series is read with this in mind, it is hillarious. Rinne is basically Inuyasha with short red hair and a better grasp on his temper as well as being a dead pan stoic, Sakura is Kagome with braided pig tails and without the whiny-ness, Rokumon is apparantly Shippo after he grew tired of being a fox.

Please read this as a comedy rather than an Inuyasha-esq action series. It is far more enjoyable this way. Also, this is not your typical Shonen manga. If you are looking for the next Inuyasha, you will be disappointed. If you are looking for a funny as heck comedy, where the poor kid/chew toy gets most of the laughs without realizing it, then you will not be disappointed!
