310 - Saikyo Selections 13 - Fushigi Yûgi

The wonderful manga letterer Sara Linsley is back to help lead this Saikyo Selection on Fushigi Yûgi! We dive into Yuu Watase's beloved shoujo series along with the newest Fushigi Yûgi: Byakko Senki which Sara lettered! We praise Watase's amazing art, appreciate the 90′s pretty boys aesthetics, discuss the often dark drama, and explore the criticisms of certain cross-dressing characters!!!
