It started out more interesting than it's gone on. Still, it _is_ only volume 3. I will keep reading and give it more of a chance. After all, this is the woman who created Fushigi Yuugi!We get to see what the transplant into our world is up to and how he's coping. He goes to school. Which is interesting as a nice break, but really, is not that terribly interesting.And then she reveals her Highlander plot to us all.I find it all a little confusing, in that there are a lot of terms she's created for the people and objects (and really, why do weapons of any sort need freaking names?). I expect if I was a Japanese speaker, I wouldn't be as confused. Not that I want the translators making up English-y words for the things either. So I have no solution.
What if a modern boy, Hinohara, and a mystical Japanese warrior god, Arata, were to trade places? Such is the premise of Arata. In this installment, Hinohara attempts to cross the evil Kannagi’s territory in order to fulfill his destiny. When his trip takes an unexpected detour and he becomes the unwilling guest of one of Kannagi’s chief servants, his true identity is certain to be discovered. Meanwhile the mystical Arata, still trapped in Hinohara’s human form, begins to adjust to his now-mortal life. As he attempts to learn how to put on a tie and pay attention in school, he also may accidentally solve Hinohara’s bully problem with his impressive array of martial-arts talent. Clever and silly, Arata is pure fun in both story line and art. Characters go from serious to exaggerated, expressing intense emotion from panel to panel of black-and-white illustrations. While a delight for fans of the first two volumes, new readers might find themselves lost in a complicated tale; it involves a menagerie of confusing characters woven into an overly sophisticated plot of magic vs. the real world.

"Hinohara manages to escape his captors, and now he must make his way back to the Amawakuni capital. In order to get there, however, he has to first cross the region ruled by the treacherous Kannagi!" -- from publisher's web site. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Fushigi Yuugi - we can START with Nakago, but that doesn't even begin to touch on Miboshi or Tomo (neither of who seemed to suffer the same horrific childhood that Nakago so they can't even claim trauma, not that its an excuse)
Ayashi no Ceres - Mikagi, who can forget MIKAGI?
Arata - Akachi. Just. This guy.
I suppose it says something that only her fantasy series seem to suffer from truly awful bad guy syndrome (her contemporaries or "light" fantasy like Absolute Boyfriend or Alice 19th, don't suffer this).
I'm enjoying this so very much. I forget why it took me this long (16 vols) before I started reading this (I was buying the volumes...that would have been an expensive lesson to learn that I didn't like the series!). I think I like Arata's story in modern day japan a tad bit better, just because he's freaking hilarious, but I feel so bad for Hinohara. People just keep TRUSTING him to do the right thing and he sort of feels obligated to.
And if I want to wear Kotoha's outfit all the time no big deal right? ( )
