Rahzel is a young girl who is thrown out of her house by her doting father with instructions to go “see the world”. And so her adventure begins, however, she won't be doing it alone. Rahzel quickly befriends an albino man named Alzeid who is seeking revenge for his father's murderer (who, coincidentally enough, looks similar to Rahzel herself). The two strangers are drawn to one another, even though they don't get along. This may be because of their shared magic powers –or it may be because of his mysterious past. The reluctant allies soon meet up with Baroqueheat, a self-proclaimed womanizer who is also deeply tied to the person known as “Alzeid”. The three strangers come together, travelling from town to town, using their powers to protect the weak, while discovering themselves along the way. Unbeknownst to Rahzel, the beginning of her so-called “adventure” sets the gears in motion for something much greater. It seems as if someone from the shadows is manipulating the events of the present for a reason yet to be understood...
From Aarinfantasy A poignant manga, portraying the story of the movie with the same title. The movie tells the story of Taishin Mamiya, a magazine editor who meets and interviews a young model, Noeru Kisaragi, and becomes sinfully attracted to him. Their love, however, is forbidden.
This work is set in the Showa era during the mid-1960s and early '70s. Yukinojo, the protagonist, was abandoned on the grounds of a Tokyo temple soon after his birth. He meets and marries Asahi, the daughter of an Aomori apple farmer, and after being adopted into her family, moves to the deep, snow-covered apple country of northern Japan. Far from the social turmoil of the period, Yukinojo lives a quiet family life that warms his heart and fills the void of never having known his parents. But one winter everything changes when he brings his wife, who has fallen ill, a forbidden apple. Reviving a rite that should have died out some 60 years earlier, Asahi becomes the consort of a local deity known as Obosuna-sama. Delicately yet boldly, with richly expressive touches, this continuing series depicts villagers who hold fast to the traditional customs they have inherited and the natural environment of a bygone Japan. Note: Won a New Face Award from the 16th Japan Media Arts Festival in 2012.
