''Maoh: Juvenile Remix'' is a manga published in Shonen Sunday (the same people that licensed {{Flame of Recca}}.) The original story was written by Kotaro Isaka. The art and current story are done by Megumi Osuga.

The story takes place in a fictional Japanese city. Recently, the [[MegaCorp Anderson Group]] has moved into town and has been launching a bunch of big building projects. The only problem is that they're taking away a lot of the locals' jobs. To top it all off, there's quite a bit of gang violence in the city. But to the people's joy, someone steps up to the plate to stop them: Inukai. He and his vigilante group, Grasshopper, want to clean up the city and put an end to the Anderson group's tyranny once and for all.

You'd figure that the story would be about Inukai's exploits, right?

'''WRONG!!!'''

The story is about Ando, a high school student who has the power to make others say out loud what he’s thinking. Initially, he thinks that Inukai is really cool. When he thinks that Inukai is about to be attacked, he follows him and tries to help. It's then that he sees Grasshopper's dark side. He then notices that Grasshopper is easily manipulating the people of the city and changing his friends. When no one else will, Ando decides to take matters into his own hands.

'''This series provides examples of:'''
* BlackAndGrayMorality: The Anderson group is shamelessly taking away peoples' jobs in order to expand, but Inukai is manipulating the people and making them perform brutal acts to stop them. 
* DudeLooksLikeALady: Inukai. 
** Ando falls under this trope at times as well.
*** Semi also falls under this trope sometimes.
* DreamingOfThingsToCome: Ando has several strange dreams that seem to nod towards future events.
* FoeYay: At first, Inukai shows a strange obsession with Ando.
* LocalHangout: Ando, Inukai, and several of his closest followers often frequent an unnamed bakery.
** It's called the Duce
* ManipulativeBastard: Inukai definitely counts.
* PunchClockVillain: Semi seems [[AffablyEvil very nice to Ando when he is off work]]
* PsychicNosebleed - Much worse than a nose bleed... 
* RousingSpeech: Is actualy used to stop a riot... [[XanatosRoulette by starting a riot...]]
* ShamingTheMob: Ando turns a RousingSpeech into a [[DopeSlap bucket of cold water on those peoples faces.]]
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Everybody LOVES Inukai!
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Inukai.
* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: Ando's ability is to make people say things he wants them to say. [[spoiler: and if he overuses it, he could collapse, or possibly die.]] 
** It's ultimately averted, though. Ando winds up getting out of quite a few pinches with his powers despite their limited nature.
