From the creator of Fushigi Yugi...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Brought to you by Yu Watase, creator of Fushigi Yugi and Ceres: Celestial Legend, Alice 19th has some pretty big shoes to fill... Luckily, it does just that and more.Out of all of Watase's works, Alice 19th is my absolute favorite. The art is beautiful (as always) and the plot is pretty much your classic fantasy/shojo yarn.While browsing the manga section in a local bookstore, I came across Alice 19th volume one. I started reading just to kill time, but by the time I was finished, I was totally eager to get my grubby paws on the second volume.All my friends read this and they totally love it! If you are a fan of Yu Watase or you like works by Rumiko Takahashi or Clamp, then I totally encourage you to try this manga!
Terrific!

Alice 19th: Inner Heart, the second book in the newest manga series by Yu Watase, creator of Fushigi Yuugi and Ayashi no Ceres (Ceres: Celestial Legend), is one manga that you don't want to pass up!In this volume, Frei enters and exclaims that he is in love with Alice and wants to marry her. WHAT!? Though Alice and Kyo (who discovers that he, too, is a Lotis Master) don't favor Frei all that much, they realize that they need him in order to rescue Mayura from the Mana. This second volume is much better than the first, and, thanks to Frei, much more comical and entertaining. It has classic Yu Watase artwork, and of course her well-known love triangles, as were in her two previous works FY and AnC. If you're a fan of Watase, pick up this book as soon as you can!
Masterpiece

Enter Frei, another Lotis Master who has come from Northern Europe. He falls deeply in love with Alice, and wants to take her back to his country... to MARRY Alice?! As Frei carries Alice back to her house, the two are transported BACK into the Inner Heart, of Alice's mother, along with Kyo. Kyou finds that he is a Lotis master as well, and all three vow to save Mayura. Can they save her?This volume is FAR better than the first one! Th art work is just as good, the comedy is over the top, and a few horror elements are thrown in. For some reason, VIZ decided to change Frei's name to "Frey," not that it matters, though. The price is reasonable at ten dollars, but it's only 190 pages!!! ((.))This is a good read, so pick it up if you have the money!!!
Awesome!

This manga is Yu Watase's masterpiece. The story describes relationships, love and rivalry between siblings in a subtle manner. It is about relationships mainly. Unlike other mangas, it is both touching and funny. Everybody can relate to the main character (Alice) who has trouble expressing her feelings and bottles everything up. Because of that, she lives in the shadow of other people (mainly her big sister)and is a social outcast at school and at home also. She discovers that her words have true power and can hurt or heal depending on how much she means what she says. I've read a lot of Yu Watase's mangas (Fushigi Yugi, Ayashi no Ceres) and I enjoyed them. But this one is her best work until now.
