Fushigi Yûgi: The Mysterious Play, Vol. 4: Bandit by Yuu Watase

4.0

How exciting was this volume! There were literal zombies... I just was not expecting that kind of action (not really sure why tho, it fits pretty well). Plus two more (harem) guys were added, leaving only one more. Has me curious what'll happen after Miaka finds them all, because we still have a lot more to read.

We got some really good character moments too. Miaka's attitude and perseverance was quite commendable here, because she was going through it, and she still refused to give up and lose her positive and hopeful attitude. It did a lot to make me like her and appreciate her as out heroine.

Yui was quite irritating though. She still refuses to consider that Miaka came back for her andTamahome, not one or the other, and that it's not her fault that Yui suffered so severely. It just makes her super unlikable.

Tamahome was still good, but we didn't get to see him as much, so he didn't get to have as many humorous or heartfelt scenes (the note wa so sweet though).

And Hotohori is vying for my heart, severely so. Honestly I really think I might prefer him and his overall disposition to Tamahome's. Plus his narcissism is really funny.

Can't wait to read volume 5!
