Fushigi Yûgi: Genbu Kaiden, Vol. 05

Today's manga post is on Fushigi Yûgi: Genbu Kaiden, Vol. 05 by Yuu Watase. It is 192 pages long and is published by Shojo Beat. The cover has Uruki and Takiko on it. As it is the fifth in the series, you need to have read the first four volumes to understand the story. There is no foul language, no sex, and mild action violence in this volume. The story is told from third person close of Takiko. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the manga- In the midst of a heated battle, Takiko is transported back to her own world. There, all the problems she escaped through her father's book are waiting for her: her mother's funeral, her father's disapproval, and her reunion with Mr. Ohsugi, her first love. But with the wisdom and strength she's found as the Priestess of Genbu, Takiko knows what she has to do. And when she discovers that the wishes of the Priestess really do have power in her world, she realizes that she must find a way to return to the Universe of the Four Gods!

Review- Takiko is back in her home world but she wants to get back. She wants to finish her mission as the Priestess of Genbu and bring peace to the kingdom. Of course when she returns, she has to deal with her feelings for Uruki and his for her. They decide to put them aside until after the mission is done. They also find the next Warrior and she doesn't want to go back and help. The plot continue to move forward at a good pace and the love story is becoming more important. I look forwarding to seeing why the next Warrior doesn't want to help and what trouble is coming next. 

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.
