Synopsis
Travel back to the mystical Universe of the Four Gods in this prequel to the hit series Fushigi Yûgi!
When schoolgirl Takiko Okuda attempts to destroy her father's translation of The Universe of the Four Gods, she is instead sucked into the story, becoming the Priestess of Genbu in an epic journey to find the seven Celestial Warriors!
In her first encounter, she meets the mysterious outlaw Limdo, a Celestial Warrior with a tattoo of the Chinese character for "woman" on his chest. Limdo can not only summon the wind as one of his special powers, but he can also transform into a woman!
Takiko meets up with the bowman Chamka, who is hunting Limdo. It seems Chamka is one of the seven Celestial Warriors as well...
