Disciple by Yuu Watase

Oh, boy. “Disciple”, third in the “Fushigi Yugi” series, is something that was conceptually fine, but I really didn’t like in practice. Tamahome’s backstory comes out in this volume and it is very classic, basic and not particularly good or bad. We mostly focus on finding Yui, Miaka’s friend, who has entered the book and been lost for multiple months. While Yui’s plot is fine in concept, I really hated how it played out and what motives we get. I’ll continue the series for another volume or so, but I really was turned off by where Watase took Yui and how she go there.
