From the back of the book- In the first adventure in the historic series, Utena faces a sword duel, an unwelcome engagement, and a mandate to revolutionize the world!
Review- This is a classic shojo manga that set a standard for the genre. The story starts with Utena dealing with the loss of her parents and being rescued by a mystery man who tells her to never lose her noble heart and gives her a ring. Fast forward Utena discovers that a private school has the same crest as her ring and she knows that she has to go to that school. From there everything goes very fast and the plot just gets bigger and more complicated. There are secret duels, a girl who can magically produce a real sword and she belongs to the winner of the duels. Utena is in over her head but she just keeps going forward. There is so much to like about this manga from the art to the intense story, I cannot recommend this series enough. I look forward to unrevealing the story and discovering all the secrets of this world.
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.
