Customer Reviews
Yu Watase shines again!
Yu Watase comes through again with her new series, Ceres. The art is breathtaking, and the editor's review honestly does it no justice at all.
Ceres is a story based on a Japanese legend, and in this legend Ceres (A Heavenly maiden) is forced to marry a fisherman, and the story of Yu Watase's work is that the original Ceres grew old and had children, but always wished to go back to where she came from.
So, she inhabbits the body of a girl every generation, and at 16 each girl of the family is tested to make sure she's not possessed. The main female character turns 16, and poof. She's 'possessed'...I'm not saying what happens next, but the art is enough to make you drool.
Even non-Yu Watase fans will enjoy this Art book, and fans will find it just as enjoyable, even if not moreso.
