Anti-recommendation: Magical Girl Site - worst manga ever?

Ever wondered how a magical girl series written by Garth Ennis would look like? Look no further.
Warning: I will talk about death and sexual violence against teenagers a lot, as well as incest and violence against animals. Also, spoilers to the ending of the manga. Seriously, this series required ALL the trigger warnings on Scans Daily, proceed with the utmost caution.

Repost: Spotlight on Nuriko from Fushigi Yuugi

A long time back I posted a spotlight on Fushigi Yuugi's Nuriko. Just recently found out that Yuu Watase came out as X-gender earlier this year (https://twitter.com/joseinextdoor/status/1164697317041168384?s=19 https://twitter.com/wataseyuu_/status/1130461270358908928). So I think let's take another look at Nuriko.





This is a little spotlight on Nuriko from Fushigi Yuugi, with some major spoilers

When introduced she's part of the ignored harem of the Emperor of Konan, and she's deeply in love with and devoted to the Emperor. She is also one of the seven chosen guardians for the Priestess of Suzaku (as is the Emperor), and she has the gift of super human strength. We later discover she's Assigned Male at Birth... And the characters after this point vary in how they treat her.

Presented here are some early scenes dealing with her outing... the reason behind her feminine presentation, and her ultimate fate... warning for some homophobic, and transmisogynistic content.
