Summary: The Mysterious Play...
Review: OK. I have to say that this is a very good series, but those of you who do not enjoy chibi-infested anime, beware, this is not the choice for you. I loved the entire thing, it keeps you laughing the whole time. It has good animation, but some of the english dubbed voices can realy get on your nervs. The Japanese version is much better, especialy with the translations. If you read the comic books, this series generaly follows it, but some of the the things that alot of people would consider important to the series are overlooked. This is definatly shojo(girls) manga, but guys would like it, too. I would say that this is for people age thirteen and up.

Summary: The First Half of This Series Needs a Debunking
Review: I like Fushigi Yuugi, but you know what? The first half wasn't very good. The second half is so much better despite the fact that Tamahome and Miaka are as prevailent as ever. The first half was mediocre at best. Weak animation and bland coloring, plenty of Miaka and Tamahome, and not nearly enough Seiryu action or enough Yui screentime. I don't understand all this Yui bashing Yui is wonderfully developed character. She's infinentely interesting to watch. While Miaka............ >.< When people point out her "good traits", they aren't very good and don't make up for her predictability. All the eating so much jokes are nice and dandy but it's old. REALLY old. It's not funny anymore. Just find a place to rent these tapes subtitled (its dub is bad and it sucks in the second half too) because it's necessary to see the first half for the second half to make sense.

Summary: Hope this helps
Review: I just can't help but write a review for probably one of THE best anime series on the planet (in my humble opinion). This series has everything that you could possibly want - humor, love, fight scenes, cross dressing, betrayal,...you name it, it's got it. I'm sure everyone else has written about the story, about how Miaka gets pulled into the book "The Universe of the Four Gods" and ends up making her dreams come true. But did you know that she also manages to cry, laugh, fight, die (almost), and still keep on fighting for those she loves? It's beyond good - the music, the story, the animation (ok, it's not as sharp as Oh My Goddess but it's not bad)...you gotta try it out!

Summary: Fushigi Yugi
Review: Comedy? Yes. Action? Yes. Romance? Yes. Horror? Let's just say the surprises are plenty horrific. Fushigi Yugi is a tale of a young girl who opens a mystical book, travels to a world of ancient time to discover adventure, friendship, love, betrayal, hatred, family, and the meaning of life. Boy, wasn't that a mouthful..and the girl is only fifthteen. But don't be fooled by the lack of age, this movie holds its own. With its unique characters, beautiful scenery, enchanting music, great belly laughs and heart wrenching scenes, each episode is as exciting as the first. Every minute you'll be out of your seat rooting and crying for them. And to be honest, there might be some cussing involved as well. But what is a good movie without getting a reaction from the audience, good or bad, right? Fushigi Yugi is at the top of my movie list along with Trigun and Rurouni Kenshin. This is a must-see people! Don't worry about the prices, you'll be too busy enjoying it. So my opinion? FIVE BIG STARS. No exaggeration.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Tamahome, Tamahome, Tamahome, Tamahome.......
Review: I forked out the money for this first set, relying upon it's merits from these reviews. Don't trust them unless you want to sit through hours of TAMAHOME, TAMAHOME etc.. The story is quite engaging hence the 3 stars, but be warned Tamahome the leading man is used at overkill.

I have been a fan of Anime for around 11-12 years and have seen many great and some rubbish shows. This one could be good if not for the 10,000,000 times Tamahomes name is said! Evangelion, Bebop, Lain, Jin Roh, Honneamise and many more great shows. See these before seeing this, but watch this before the devastatingly awful Nadesico!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It rules! SEE IT!!!
Review: You won't regret buying this movie...the basic plot is mezmorizing!!!!

Miaka and her best friend Yui, are one day in the Library! Miaka, after claiming she heard a bird, wandered into the referance room, and Yui followed. They found a book called 'The Universe of the 4 Gods', then they turned the first page, and the story began! It's The one of the best Anime I have ever seen. This set is only the first half though. The ending clifhanger will leave you begging for more!

For any of those romance lovers out thier: YOU WANT THIS SERIES!! The love between Miaka and Tamahome is amazing, then add in the problems with Hotohori, Yui, and Nuriko, and you've got the perfect story right there.

This is NOT a anime to say no to. It's wonderfully written, the design is beautiful, and the characters are very amusing.
All in all: GET THIS MOVIE!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The heavenly tales of the Suzaku!
Review: Fushigi Yûgi, also known as The Mysterious Play, begins when Miaka Yûki and her best friend Yui Hongo go to the Tokyo library after school. Near a drink machine, Miaka witnesses a beautiful red bird fly up the stairs and into a dark room of rare books reserved for staff only.

Miaka and Yui go into the room, where they discover an ancient Chinese book called "The Universe of the Four Gods". Yui, who could read the language, opens the book with Miaka and begins to read..

'This is the story of a girl who made her dreams come true after she came to possess the seven stars of Suzaku, and many powers were bestowed upon her. The story itself is a spell. The one who reads it through will be given the powers and granted a wish like the girl in the story. Because... the story begins and becomes real... The moment the first page is turned...'

The two girls get sucked into the book, which is is a fictional version of ancient China. This is were the adventure begins. Here, Miaka will soon meet Tamahome, and the emperor of the Konan Empire, Hotohori. She is told the legend of The Universe of the Four Gods, and accepts the role of the Priestess of Suzaku. She must collect all seven of Suzaku's celestial warriors to save Konan and make all of her dreams come true.

Fushigi Yûgi is a story filled with humor, tragedy, courage, and hope. But most importantly, it's about friendship, love, and the preservation of these relationships you share with others.

Rating: 5 stars
