A decent end to the series, marred by some dubious gender stereotypes and a lot of deus ex machinas machinas in the face of plot issues. Sapphire is still awesome, tho. ( ) no reviews | add a review
Belongs to SeriesPrincess Knight (4-6)
Osamu Tezuka's beloved heroine Sapphire, known across the globe as the Princess Knight, returns in a two-volume release by famed manga publisher Vertical. Heavily inspired by Disney in its design and tone and considered by many as the first major shojo (girls) works, it has long been one of Tezuka's most acclaimed works. In a medieval setting, Sapphire must pretend to be a male prince so she can inherit the throne. Women have long been prevented from ascending to this position but, undiscouraged, Sapphire fully accepts her role, becoming a dashing heroine. No library descriptions found. |
