Summary: A must-read for manga fans!
Comment: If you are a manga lover and have not checked out Fushigi Yuugi yet, let me recommend it. I am writing this review for book 3, but I am giving an over-all recommendation for the entire series. Maybe it doesn't have an American T.V. show yet (I stress yet because I dare to dream) but it is one of the best mangas I have read.
In this novel, more of the characters are introduced as the heroine (Miaka) searches for her "bodyguards" who will help her make a wish. Major plot twist occur (that I don't want to spoil) as she tries to stay alive in ancient China! I have totally just simplified the plot, and looking back, I didn't do it justice, but I swear that I don't want to spoil any of the story. Maybe I'm just strange, but I totally fell in love with this series and the characters in it (esp. Tamahome), and this book definitely met my expectations. Now all I have to ask is when will the next volume come out?
If you're looking for technical stuff, I would recommend that you get the first two volumes first, otherwise it'll be confusing. And, if you wonder about this kind of stuff, there is romance and a little harmless flesh shown. I wasn't offended, but I don't know about others. I recommend this series whole-heartedly, but I am admittedly biased. :) Enjoy!

Summary: Mysterious Play
Comment: Fushigi Yugi is a wonderful story. One of my friends at school read it and said it was good, so I figured, what the heck, I'll try it! They didn't have the first 2 volumes, just the 3rd book, so I got it. I followed the story amazingly well. It was excellent! It really pulled me into the story. I can't wait to get the rest! This story is about a girl who goes into the world of a book, and falls in love with one (more like most) of the character(s). In this volume, Miaka meets Chirchiri (no da?). Tamahome reveals how he really feels about Miaka. Also, Miaka finds Yui. But she's the Priestess of Seiryu! Yui turns on Miaka and insists on ripping Miaka and Tamahome apart.

Summary: Manga that's definately worth a look
Comment: Wow. If you don't have this manga, then there's something wrong with you! Whether or not you're a fan of the Tv series, Fushigi Yugi is a must have for the anime fan. Yu Watase knows how exactly to blend comedy with drama, so you can have emotional trama and kick [butt]fighting, turning into a laugh-a-minute when one of the charactes does something stupid. I particularily like the "Fushigi Auki, The Malicious Play" parodies done by the author every so often, taking a section of one of the chapters and turning it into a farce. GET THIS MANGA it is well worth your dollars.
