☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis third volume of Tokyopop's Sakura Taisen manga adaptation continues the steampunk adventure of the Imperial Combat Revue, as the all-female Flower Division defends Tokyo from demonic threats. Based on the popular Sega video game series, the story follows Sakura Shinguji and her teammates as they balance their stage performances with their secret battles against evil forces.
In "After The Turmoil," Kanna reclaims her place within the unit after a difficult journey overseas, while Tenkai quietly prepares for his next move and General Yoneda receives a troubling update from a hidden informant. Written by Ohji Hiroi and Yuko Fukami, with art by Ikku Masa and inks by Ikku Masa and Fawn Lau, this 2006 Tokyopop issue delivers a tense, character-driven chapter in the Sakura Taisen saga. The cover, a striking collaboration by Ikku Masa and Jorge Negrete, captures the story’s mood of quiet intensity.
In "Take Off! Shogei-maru," the Imperial Flower Division races against time to stop Great Bishop Tenkai from destroying Tokyo's main radio transmission tower, their steam-powered tanks roaring through Shiba Park in a high-stakes battle of wills and steel. The story blends pulpy sci-fi action with the weight of duty, as the team faces a threat that looms over the city’s very voice.
In "Kanna's Return," the tension mounts as Kanna comes back to the unit after her time away, her presence stirring quiet shifts in the group's dynamic. With Tenkai already plotting his next move and General Yoneda receiving a crucial report from a hidden agent, the shadows grow longer—though just how deep they run remains unknown.
