☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis first volume of Viz's 2003 edition of Fushigi Yugi introduces the classic shojo fantasy series by Yuu Watase. It follows middle schooler Miaka Yūki and her friend Yui Hongo as they are transported into the world of a mysterious book, The Universe of the Four Gods, where Miaka is chosen as the Priestess of Suzaku. The volume collects the beginning of her quest to gather the seven Celestial Warriors and save the kingdom while navigating the dangers of both the story's world and her own.
"Chapter One: The Young Lady of Legends" introduces a tale rooted in ancient China, where meticulous research meets imaginative departure—Yu Watase’s distinctive storytelling weaves history and fantasy with care. With her own artwork adorning the cover, Watase sets the tone for a journey that honors the past while boldly shaping its own myth.
In "Chapter Four: The Seven Constellations of Suzaku," Miaka continues her quest to return home by seeking out the seven chosen individuals tied to the celestial Suzaku. This chapter brings her to Nuriko, one of the seven, as she and Tamahome navigate the growing mystery of their fated roles.
