Still, I picked up the first volume of Genbu Kaiden, expecting it to be a sad shadow of its predecessor and maybe just a way for the mangaka to reconnect with what is probably her most well-known series in America (I'm not sure how her titles rate in her home country.) I've really been enjoying Arata, but otherwise, any other Watase titles I'd tried to read had been sort of a let-down after Fushigi. Seeing Genbu Kaiden a few years ago, I'll admit that despite my Fushigi fangirl status, I was a little leery. It's been fifteen or so years, and it still, and probably always will, holds a special place in my heart. The original Fushigi Yuugi was the first anime I ever watched, and it's been one of my favorites ever since. If you want to know more, read it! Highly recommend 🙂 There are twist and turns in this story which is very interesting. Unlike Miaka who is kinda childish ,Takiko is a fighter, she is charming but she’s mature woman, she thinks of the people who need her and she is convinced to save them all. This is also interesting as it shows the history of the book “The Universe Of Four Gods” and the author which is Takiko’s father in the Taisho era. GK is something that is unexpected, there are many challenges, obstacles and it is always hard to look for new celestial warriors.
I am now 28 yrs old grown up working woman and I still love FY, I dont want to make this review long, Genbu Kaiden is more darker, kinda hardcore than the orig FY Miaka/Tamahome, I also believe that GK has the most strongest celestial warriors (they are all unique). I love the FS “mysterious play” it was one of my favorite anime back in the day.
I was reading this when I am on my trip in Brazil. In Chuang Yi's English-language versions of Fushigi Yugi (spelled without a macron or circumflex), her name is romanized as "Yu Watase".
Her name is romanized as "Yû Watase" in earlier printings of Viz Media's publications of Fushigi Yūgi, Alice 19th, and Ceres, The Celestial Legend, while in Viz Media's Fushigi Yūgi Genbu Kaiden and Absolute Boyfriend her name is romanized as "Yuu Watase". In October 2008, Watase began her first shōnen serialization, Arata: The Legend in Weekly Shōnen Sunday. Because of her frequent use of beautiful male characters in her works, she is widely regarded in circles as a bishōnen manga artist. Since writing her debut short story "Pajama de Ojama" ("An Intrusion in Pajamas"), Watase has created more than 80 compiled volumes of short stories and continuing series. She received the Shogakukan Manga Award for shōjo for Ceres, Celestial Legend in 1997. She likes all music, except heavy metal and old traditional music. She is known for her works Fushigi Yūgi, Alice 19th, Ceres: The Celestial Legend, Fushigi Yūgi Genbu Kaiden and Absolute Boyfriend.
