Living on the hype of magical girls series of the ’90s, Fushigi Yuugi was one of many that redefined the genre. Most of the magical girl series at that time featured either a team of super-powered heroines and/or magical items. Fushigi Yuugi featured none of that. Instead, it has a girl who became a priestess in story who could make wishes with the help from the god Suzuku. It seems at a glance that the main heroine isn’t powerful due to her ability. But
because of the nature of this ability, she is deemed important because others, including her best friend, want to use this ability for Earth-threatening causes.
“Itoshii Hito no Tame ni” plays on the show’s mystical and ancient sentiments pretty well...
I'm selling THOUSANDS(!) of items I've purchased in Japan. I've lived in Japan for 7 years and there's far too much stuff now. I'm selling my Fushigi Yuugi merchandising and the manga (Japanese):

I'm not sure how many people still check this community, but I'm currently looking for a potential beta/someone to just bounce ideas around for a fanfic I'm working on. It's more of an original piece than one that is based on the FY world Miaka and Yui lived in since it takes place several hundred years after the original story, but I do plan on bringing in reincarnations of the twenty-eight seishi. I'll be focusing more on Tenkyoku's story, and since I wanted to experiment with a few things... ^^; I decided to see what it would be like if the Priestess were actually a Priest and he starts out in Nyosei.
Without further ado... story info and link to what I have posted so far.

Hi! I've got a Fushigi Yuugi promo clear file and manga posters for sale at my journal. Take a look and drop a message there if you'd like anything. :)
I'm not sure if this is allowed but my old roommate and good friend is translating the Fushigi Yuugi game Suzaku Ibun on her livejournal (included with hilarious commentary.) So if you're like me and always wanted to play the game but don't have the time to translate or the computer to run it, stop by there and read. HERE'S a link to her F.Y tag. Enjoy!
Hi! I've got an Ayashi no Ceres card set for sale at my journal. Take a look and drop a message there if you'd like anything. Since a lot of FY fans are also Ceres fans, I thought I'd share the info here.:)
I have been trying to look for one of FY short story, called Aoi Hana no Densetsu but to no avail, can't find any information about it. If anybody is familiar to the story, would you kindly tell me what is it about?
If you have the scans that would be helpful as well as I would translate it for you.
So it's been a long while since I last visited this series. I finished Fushigi Yuugi back when I was in 6th grade, and it was one of my first ever manga series. Now, looking back at it, I've been trying to do some extensive research so that I could write a relatively accurate fanfic, but I came across a lot of universe details, so I thought I'd write up on what I've found and some conclusions I've drawn! I thought it'd be easier since I'm Chinese by descent, but Yuu Watase's world is much more complicated than imagined.
Quick note ahead of time that I've only watched a little of the anime series, and none of the OVAs, so my conclusions are based on the universe presented to us in Fushigi Yuugi and its prequel, Genbu Kaiden. I also haven't actually read any of the novels, though I tried reading available summaries. If anyone who has explored the mediums that I haven't or has actual interview logs or words from Yuu Watase-sensei herself, please let me know!
I watched all episodes and OVA's of the series and in the beginning if I am not mistaken when yui is first reading the book doesn't she say that who ever reads the book gets the same number as wishes as the priestess does. But who was the readers was it yui or miaka's brother and what were their wishes? For yui I think it was for her to be with Tamahome, so when miaka 1st left the book it was like the story ended because miaka might not have returned so yui was able to make her wish of beginning with tamahome and the book started the next story of priestess of seriyuu. But in that case then for yui's story miaka's brother and friend would have been the readers, so what were their wishes?
Any thoughts on this any one (please respond with opinions). I always found this very interesting, but maybe it was just something they forgot about as the series went on.
Also I was wondering at the end of the 3rd ova the one were miaka is pregnant, at the end of the ova the book returns to the library and ten their is something written on the screen in Japanese and it is not translated into English, anyone have any idea what it says. Some where a while ago I think some one said it translated into saying "Don't forget us" but I am not sure about that and I would love to know what the end says.
