Ceres, Celestial Legend

Horror, Comedy, and Romance made in Heaven Yu Watase, the immensely popular writer/artist of the shojo (girls') fantasy smash Fushigi Yugi: The Mysterious Play, has turned her creativity and wry sense of humor to the horror genre with her anime/manga hit Ceres: Celestial Legend. Aya thought she was a normal teenager until she discovered that she can transform into a vastly powerful "heavenly maiden" named Ceres...but Ceres is furious and out for revenge! Monster Their search for the celestial robes or "hagoromo" resumed, Aya and Yuhi transfer to (yet another) new school. But, here, their problems are more serious than just making new friends. Aki-or, should we say, the "Progenitor"-is on campus and making Aya's life hell. And then there's a kind of actual hell itself, in the form of a beneath-school passageway, where a...creature...is said to roam. Is there any truth to Aki's claim that the monster is the daughter of a priest who made the grave error of angering a celestial maiden or "ten'nyo" hundreds of years ago...' Speaking of ten'nyo, Aya has vowed to never release Ceres again. But Aki has made his own vow...and he will claim Ceres-his woman-one way or the other....Watase, Yuu is the author of 'Ceres, Celestial Legend ', published 2005 under ISBN 9781591162629 and ISBN 1591162629.
