To do that, they must awaken three mashins - or rune gods - and learn magic. At least, that's what the strange looking kid (who claims to be over 700 years old but looks roughly about 10) tells them when trying to explain what they are doing in that strange world.įuu, Umi and Hikaru have been summoned to Cephiro by the princess, to become the legendary Magic Knights and help save the world. A world that is in a lot of danger since the high priest Zagato kidnapped the ruling princess of Cephiro, Princess Emeraude who is literally the Pillar of the whole world, her will and prayers what kept the world glued together. They have arrived to Cephiro, a world where the will and strength of the heart rule everything. Oh, and they are catching a ride on the back of a huge flying fish. Next thing they know, they are flying over a strange ocean, looking at big volcano and floating mountains. Once there, they hear a strange voice asking the Magic Knights to Save Cephiro, before a blinding white light iluminated the sky. Though they have a long way to go, Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu will show that they have what it takes to live up to their titles as Magic Knights and bring salvation to Cephiro.This week's retro friday is going to be a little different, as I choose to review the manga of Magic Knight Rayearth by CLAMP which was re-released last July by Dark Horse Comics.Īt First Sight: Fuu, Umi and Hikaru are three Tokyo school girls, who go to different middle schools but happened to take a class field trip to the Tokyo Tower on the same day. As Clef grants the trio armor and magic, one of Zagato's servants attacks, forcing the guru to send the girls away to the weaponsmith Presea and the rabbit-like guide Mokona, who can further equip them for their journey. To stand a chance against him, they must revive mysterious beings called Mashin. In order to do so, they have to rescue Princess Emeraude from the clutches of the powerful Lord Zagato. Unfortunately for them, Clef explains that they cannot go home until they have saved Cephiro and banished the monsters plaguing it. While Hikaru finds the prospect exciting, Umi and Fuu simply want to return to their own world. They are soon greeted by Guru Clef, a youthful-looking man who informs them that they are the legendary Magic Knights summoned by Princess Emeraude to save this magical land known as Cephiro. Three high school girls-hot-blooded Hikaru Shidou, haughty Umi Ryuuzaki, and gentle Fuu Hououji-have just met at Tokyo Tower when they hear a call for help that pulls them into another world.
