Written
and drawn by You Higuri, this manga was published by Asuka Comics
DX and is 10 volumes in length. It deals with battles of love, magic,
good and evil, and has the charm of fantasy literature. The story allures
the reader with dragon lore and myths, bloodshed, wicked so-called friends,
confused heroes, sad angels, beautifyl women, dangerous love affairs, cruel
leaders, and angry daemons.
Seimaden
is a story fantasy collectors and manga art lovers wont want to miss. Once,
when I started this shrine, You was quite obscure, but now she is extremely
popular. I collect various of her works, but still Seimaden remains
a favourite. This shrine offers fiction, art, images, and information
on this manga, such as manga reviews. I am sure that after visiting this
small shrine, you will want to get these books and have a bigger appreciation
for You's work.
I hope you come to love this manga as much as I do.

Introduction
Irashaimase, and welcome
to Feather's Dream, Team Bonet's Seimaden shrine. It is a pleasure
to find you as our visitor.
Among You Higuri's work,
Seimaden, The Legend of the Sacred Emperor of the Demons,
continues to be my favourite. It is sad that volume ten marks the end of
this story, but I am glad it is coming to a conclusion. Some other mangas
receive a speedy end, or what is worse, go on forever. I am thankful that
this story saw a resolution, even if I may never covet another issue again.
I believe the most beautiful aspect of this manga is its drawings, the
beautiful sad faces. The story each of the characters embody is also an
important element, all of the inner troubles these characters face. In
1997, when I first came across Seimaden, I fancied Rauresu to the
best character of all, and I almost ignored everyone else. I seemed as
obssessed with him as the author herself. Today, I find myself a steady
follower of most of characters, especially Teteiyusu and Zadei. The story
behind these two, with its tragic romance, is one I find close to my heart.
Over the years, I've connected with Teteiyusu in a very deep way, finding
beauty, and a sense of being in the angelic demon. In their honor, these
room received the title of Feather's Dreams. Please enjoy what they have
to offer.
