Beauty and the Beast Girl (rank 2.5)

Publisher: Seven Seas
Volumes: 1/1 (Complete), In Print
Yuri
Genre: Romance



Summary: One day the lonely half-monster young woman Heath, who has given up on having relationships with humans, gets an unexpected second chance when a blind girl, Lily, wanders into the deep woods.

Review: The first half of the story is a very sweet story about the blind girl Lily who accepts the half monster girl Heath as the way she is. Their growing friendship eventually turns into love. It's a very sweet story about acceptance, both accepting others and accepting yourself, even if you are a monster. Even if you've done something wrong.

The second half of the story got a bit clunkier as the mangaka tried to introduce other characters to cause conflict between the couple- namely Lily's protective servant and her father. This part of the story was alright, but it could have been done better.

Recommended: Overall, a sweet short Yuri story about acceptance

LGBT score: 7/10: It's a bit clunky of a story, but the themes of acceptance really make this one more something that might resonate with general readers looking for LGBT stories.

Age Rating: PG13: some kissing and making out, and some mild non-explicit nudity in the bath.
