About the series
In the mid-2000s, Egmont published an 18-issue comic series adaptation of Fushigi Yuugi, bringing the beloved fantasy adventure to a new format. This edition follows the story of two schoolgirls transported into the pages of a mystical Chinese novel, where they are drawn into a war between gods and mortals. While the original manga creator, Yuu Watase, is the name most associated with this universe, this specific 2005–2007 series offers a compact, accessible entry into her epic tale of romance, sacrifice, and celestial magic. It stands as a faithful, self-contained version of a classic shōjo saga for readers discovering the story in a new era.
