Today's post on Fushigi Yûgi: The Mysterious Play, Vol. 16: Assassin by Yuu Watase. It is 191 pages long and is published by Shojo Beat. The cover is Miaka and Take with Suzaku behind them. It is the sixteenth in her long running series and you need to have to have read the rest of the series to understand what is going on. There is no foul language, mild sexuality and mild violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close of the main character Miaka. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- Assassin
As enigmatic exchange student Lian slowly takes control of the minds of everyone in the school, his agenda becomes clear: he is training an army of assassins to kill Miaka! Even if Miaka is able to escape the attempt on her life, will she be able to thwart a mysterious vixen's efforts to tear Taka from her arms?
Review- With everything starting to come together Miaka and Take are unknowingly racing the clock. The bad guy is getting more powerful and it is not worried about them getting all the memory stones for some reason. Lian and his sister are trying to stop them and win but Miaka and Taka are very resourceful so in this volume we get another stone. I am annoyed with Miaka's family especially her brother because he knows about the Universe of the Four Gods and yet he believes the bad guys about Taka. But Miaka and Taka believe and finally trust in each other so it does not do anything to effect them. With only two volumes left I am very curious about how Watase is going to wrap things up.
I give this volume a Five out Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
