Fushigi Yugi: Genbu Kaiden
Short Summary: The story revolves around a chinese book translated by Einosuke Okuda. This book has magical powers that pulls any girl who opens the book into it. Einosuke Okuda's daughter, Takiko Okuda, is the first girl pulled into the book and into the mysterious land of the ancient China. She finds herself in Genbu as the Priestess of Genbu, with the task of finding the seven warriors of Genbu so as to summon the beast god to save the country.
Long Intro:The story revolves around Takiko Okuda and plays in the year 1923 in the north of Japan in a town called Morioka. Takiko lives with her mother and her grandmother. Her father is an author but seldom at home.
Takiko cares for her ill mother. She has no friends at school but is a good student. Her only friend is Takao Osugi. He is an old friend of her father. When she saw him the first time ten years ago, she fell in love with him.
In a suprising moment Takiko's father returns gome. He is terribly exhausted from his journey, but barely takes a break. He starts working on the translation of a book that is written in Chinese. It's the Shijintenchisho, the book of the four gods of heaven and earth.
Takiko doesn't like her father because he never seems to care about his family. When she returns from a meal with Takao Osugi she is told that her mother died. Even more than her mothers death she's pained by her fathers (non-existant) reaction to it.
She runs out of the house followed by Takao. He hugs her to console her, but she suddenly confesses that she loves him. She wishes for him to be by her side, always. He cannot fullfill her wish since he is already married and has a family. She gets herself together and says that she's a strong girl. She then says farewell to Takao.
Takiko returns back home and together with her grandmother she prepares her mother for the funeral. During that time Einosuke finally finishes his translation. His daughter storms into his room, angry as hell, because even now he isn't helping them. She takes the book out of his hands and runs away with it.
She confronts her father, but he keeps evading her questions and when he asks her to return the book she tries to rip it apart. Instead the book opens and Takiko disappears in a bright light.
She finds herself in a hill land covered with snow.
