Manga Question @.@

[Goddess Ace]

I'm making a list of the manga I want to purchase and then this hit me...

What's the difference between Fushigi Yugi and Fushigi Yugi Genbu Kaiden?

And anyone else have any suggestions?

BTW, I'll move this later.

I found it on Wikipedia :B

The original was on the lines of a romantic comedy while the other is more serious.

Genbu kaiden is a prequal and follows the storyline of the priestess of genbu

Hi, I read a lot of manga and I have read fushigi Yugi but I've never heard of the other one.... Its probably a series sequel or prequel or something...

I recomend Ayashi no Ceres (Also Called Ceres the Celestial jerney in the translation)
It is made by the same person who made Fushigi Yugi

You know.. I've been wondering where the hell Ayashi no Ceres had gone.. I heard about it from a friend, and never once realized that Ceres: The Celestial Journey was what it was 'translated' to.. *hits head* XD Thanks for telling us that. ^^

No suggestions, though.. unless you haven't already got X/1999 or aren't already collecting xxxHolic.. XD For a short collection, go for Sister Red. I've got both the Volumes it spans over, and its quite an interesting story..
