Summary: Better than I expected
Comment: When ever I go looking for a new manga series to start reading, I like to read Amazon.com's reader reviews to help me decide if they're worth buying. In the case of Fushigi Yugi, that back fired. Most of the reviews say something along the lines of 'if you liked Sailor Moon, you'll love Fushigi Yugi!' Well, since I really don't like Sailor Moon, it really turned me off. I am glad to say, though, that Fushigi Yugi is really much better than SM. Number one, the characters are more realistic. Even though we are dealing with that old chesnut of 'magical fourteen year old girls,' Watase sensei manages to pull it off better than most (it's no Inu-Yasha, but few authors/artists compare to my idol, Rumiko Takahashi). Also, I the plot was very engaging; rather like a fairy tale. The artwork was pretty good, too. My only complaint would be that the boys seem too pretty at times(it's time for androgeny, here comes Hotori!), but other than that I liked it.
My final analysis, is that it's worth the money. That may sound like sparse praise, but I'm a big cheapskate, so the fact that I have ordered Fushigi Yugi vol 1 & 2 says a lot.

Summary: Vol 1Priestess review
Comment: This is an awesome book! It has beautiful art and a wonderful and hilarious story line. Not only is it comical but full of action and romance. The main characters Miaka and Tamahome have there flakey moments but I love when they show how much they feel towards each other. The most gorgeous character has to be Hotohori even thought Tamahome is very cute as well. Nuriko is well..mean and a little...in this comic but maybe his/her whatever attitude will change throughout the series. Well, I totally recommend getting the Vol 1 Priestess let alone the whole series. I have defiantly added this manga series to my collection. It is worth every penny! Make sure you don't buy them one by one because once you finsh reading the book then you will be dying do get the next one because they always stop at a very dramatic part. Believe Me!!
