More about Kamikaze Kaito Jeanne
Kamikaze Kaito Jeanne is by Arina Tanemura and ran from February 1998 to July 2000 in Shueisha’s girls’ magazine Ribon. The chapters were collected in seven volumes. Toei Animation adapted the series as a 44-episode anime that aired on TV Asahi in 1999 and 2000.
At its centre is the schoolgirl and gymnast Maron Kusakabe, who steals paintings by night as the phantom thief Jeanne. Demons are lodged in the pictures, and she has to seal them before they devour human hearts. Maron is regarded as the reincarnation of Jeanne d’Arc; before long a second thief appears, a rival.
Besides the regular volumes, there are reissues as Perfect Edition and Luxury Edition, as well as an artbook.
