Fushigi Yûgi
Over a series of five years, wrote thirteen Japanese light novels based on "Fushigi Yûgi". Illustrated by Yuu Watase, "Fushigi Yûgi Gaiden" primarily explores the lives the various Celestial Warriors before they are seen in the manga. The only two novels to be set after the manga, "Eikō Den (Jōkan)" and "Eikō Den (Gekan)", later became the basis for the third "Fushigi Yûgi" original video animation, "Fushigi Yûgi: Eikoden." Originally published by Shogakukan, none of the novels have been licensed for English release.
