Review* Fushigi Yuugi by Sean Russell (Naruto) |
||||||
| [Synopsis Source: Animetric.com] Miaka Yuuki is an ordinary girl with an ordinary life. That is, until she and her best friend Yui stumble upon a book entitled "The Universe of the Four Gods". In a flash, the girls are literally drawn into the book and become part of the story. Miaka finds herself in the midst of Konan, a country in turmoil. In Konan, she is revered as the legendary "Priestess of Suzaku". Suddenly, the neighboring country wants her dead. But not to worry, Miaka's got the bravest and most dashing men protecting her all the way. She then agrees to take on the responsibility of finding salvation for those who believe in her, and thus the story unfolds... to reveal any more would be to spoil it for those who've never experienced Fushigi Yuugi for themselves. One thing is certain, Miaka's life isn't going to be easy from thereon. Review Fushigi Yuugi is a love story with a number of different elements. It can be considered a drama, fantasy and comedy series as well. Its creator carefully constructs a story that's as unpredictable as some of its major characters. Each couple of episodes drops a new twist in the story that reaffirms the series as being among the best. I enjoy the animation and character design of the series. It resembles Rurouni Kenshin and Sailor Moon. The dialogue and soundtrack are similar to Yu Yu Hakusho. The action of the series isn't as vivid as other Anime series. However that's not the attraction of this series. Overall, it's just a good story. You become attached to the characters and eagerly await the addition of new warriors. Each new warrior adds another layer to this series. It also holds some of the most original characters I've ever seen in an Anime series. Lesaruss Reccomendation: Yes Score: A - |
