Today's post is on Fushigi Yugi: The Mysterious Play, Volume 2: Oracle by Yuu Watase. It is 189 pages long and is published by Shojo Beat. The cover has the two main characters on it facing the reader. The intended reader is someone who likes historical fantasy, high fantasy, romance, and shojo stories. There is mild foul language, mild sexuality, and violence in this story. The story is told from third person close of the main characters. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- During a pilgrimage to the oracle Tai Yi-Jun, Miaka is trapped inside a cursed mirror while her evil reflection goes free! Can Tamahome, Hotohori, and Nuriko save the real Miaka? Can Yui, now back in the real world, help her missing friend come home? When Miaka does make her way back to Tokyo, things are not as expected.
Review- Lots of plot and character development happens in this volume. Miaka decides that she needs to go home to fix things there before she can do her job as the Priestess of Suzaku. So her friends on both sides of the book help her get home but Yui get sucked into the book and is currently missing. Miaka and Tamahome are starting to deal with their feelings towards each other and is cute and a little funny. Of course there is a love triangle with Hotohori falling for Miaka too but I think that has something to do with her being the Priestess of Suzaku because all her guardians are very drawn to her. I am very interesting in what happened to Yui and where the plot is going to head from here.
I give this volume a five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
