ふしぎ遊戯 -永光伝
Synopsis
Miaka and Taka's peace shatters when Mayo opens the cursed book, reigniting peril across two worlds.
Years after their legendary adventure, Miaka and Taka have built a peaceful life together. Their quiet happiness, however, is about to be tested once more. When a troubled high-school student named Mayo discovers the ancient book that once pulled Miaka into its mystical world, she finds herself drawn to its pages—and to the power they hold. As Mayo’s fascination with the book grows, strange disturbances begin to ripple through both the real world and the realm within the pages. With the boundary between the two worlds once again at risk, Taka must confront the possibility that the story he thought had ended may have only just begun. A new chapter unfolds in the tale of The Universe of the Four Gods, where love, destiny, and the fragile threads that bind worlds together are put to the ultimate test.
