Fifteen-year-old Miaka Yuki is transported into an ancient Chinese kingdom by an old library book, The Universe of the Four Gods.

Fushigi Yûgi, the best-selling series from beloved creator Yuu Watase is now available in a VIZBIG Edition--three of the original graphic novel releases collected into one volume, including colour artwork and new bonus content!

A Collection of Volumes 1 - 3!

Miaka is a junior high school student studying for entrance exams for Johan High School, the top school in the city. Not academically inclined, Miaka would rather forget studying and spend more time eating snacks--her favourite pastime--but she's cramming for the exam to please her mother. While studying at the library with her best friend Yui, she finds an old book called The Universe of the Four Gods. Upon reading the book, the girls are transported to a land resembling ancient China. Immediately on their arrival, a pair of bandits attempts to abduct Yui!
