Those who are following my blog may have read the Fushigi Yuugi Gengu Kaiden up until Chapter 32.. am i right??? Yeah,even me,has felt hanged when i ended up reading until chapter 32 only.. The reason why it has been stopped publishing is because Yuu Watase (the author) has encountered some health issues. I don't really know what exactly it is.
During its hiatus, many fans were complaining for its release. And finally last year, chapter 33 was out in the market. What a great news..!
By the way, for those who didn't know and haven't read the story, well, you must read it and soon, you will find yourself get hooked to it...
Let me introduce you the characters of FYGK:
Takiko Ukuda
She was accidentally taken into the Universe of the Four Gods and was destined to be the Priestess of Genbu for the purpose of summoning the God Genbu in exchange for the 3 wishes he could grant to her. She was yearning for the love of her father who neglected her, and the love of her first love. In this strange world, she was about to meet the people who will change her life, who will give her the attention and care she's looking for, and LOVE as intense and great that she couldn't imagine :-)
Uruki/Rimudo Roun
The first person Takiko met. She, yes
she, was executed when Takiko met her. She was also the one who saved Takiko from evil monsters who are trying to attack her. Soon enough, Takiko found out that the girl she met was actually a man and revealed to be the a celestial warrior. His mark on his chest means "woman" and only he can utilize his power in a woman's form.
Tomite
He was an archer and has the power of ice. He chased down Uruki because of the bounty on his head. He likes Takiko and hate Uruki believing that the two have something special between them. Soon enough, he developed his feeling towards Hikitsu's little sister Aira.
Hikitsu
