Fushigi Yûgi: Byakko Senki

Ten years after being sucked into The Universe of the Four Gods, Suzuno leads a quiet life as a high school student in 1930s Tokyo. Just when she decides to get serious about her future and think about marriage, the book mysteriously reappears and throws all her plans into question. She resolves to return the book to the library, but a harrowing encounter on the street leaves her with no other choice but to return to The Universe of the Four Gods!

Just as Suzuno reunites with Karm and Kasal, the brothers she met on her first trip into The Universe of the Four Gods, false priestess Ning-Lan unleashes a brutal attack that leaves Kasal mortally wounded. In the aftermath, Karm must come to terms with stepping into his newly awakened powers as a Celestial Warrior. But as the group begins their search for the other Celestial Warriors, something sinister awaits them out in the desert…

After a clumsy rescue by Tokaki, Suzuno and Tatara escape their imprisonment by the Crow People. As they’re fleeing, they quite literally stumble into their newest Celestial Warrior—the graceful and wise Toroki. Upon learning Suzuno is the true Priestess, the Crow People celebrate her with a feast. Tatara chooses this time to tell something special to Suzuno, but she can hardly catch her breath amid all the excitement before Ning-Lan reveals her next murderous move… Also includes “Byakko Ibun,” the story of Nirsha and Ning-Lan!

With Durin headed off to the Imperial Palace as a consort candidate, Suzuno agrees to dance with Durin’s troupe at the Vihara, where she can learn more about the Sangha and their alliance with the False Priestess. Along the way, Suzuno navigates her feelings about Tatara’s confession and her engagement to Seiji. When the dance finally begins, Ning-Lan and Nirsha choose this moment to attack—with dire consequences for Suzuno!
