Ahh I read this after reading the reviews about how awesome this manga was and honestly it seriously is a freaking awesome manga.

The storyline starts off with a girl Sarasa living in the shadow of her twin brother who is the "chosen one." Shit goes down and eventually Sarasa lives out her tale. The pretense of the storyline is definitely unique but nothing too out of the ordinary. It takes place in historical times with emperors and kings and all that jazz. (Reminds me of Akatsuki no Yona but less shoujo-y) The only big miss for me is that the author includes so many people and so many places that sometimes I couldn't follow up on what was happening. And if you're anything like me and can't remember characters names, you will probably get hella confused while reading. I got the hang of it once I got more than halfway through. Other than that the plot and storyline were very enjoyable. But I have to say now that I've finished reading I understand that each location and each encounter was vital to the plot so yeah. I mean the mangaka could've excluded some things but I'm glad he/she didnt. If you start reading and you get frustrated please continue because you won't regret it!

The romance is very prevalent throughout this story. All I'm gonna say is that it seriously reminded me of Romeo and Juliet. I can't say more or else I'll spoil it for you!

The characters, although many, were very well developed and lovable. You get a taste of each character and because of this you will get attached. God I grew so fond of so many characters. At the end the mangaka also includes a little series of chapters delving into the lives of the characters after the whole story. If you like that sort of thing then yeah that happens here.

The art is pretty old fashioned but I really like old fashioned mangas so I didn't really have a problem. The only thing is that some panels would be drawn weird so I couldn't understand what was happening. The art wasn't coherent at times but it happened very rarely so yeah you'll be fine.

Overall I would give this an 8/10. Just for some minor flaws here and there but I seriously enjoyed this story. The plot wasn't shallow and the whole time I was pretty captivated into reading more. I would suggest giving this a shot!
