Shiina won the 34th Hakusensha Athena rookie debut grand prize in 2009 for her work "Maria-kun of wonder." and is currently working on the series "The world is still beautiful"(in 2013).
Şimdi Sand Prince'e sevdim çok sevdim valla ama bir Livius değil ki bu volume için eksik olan şey buydu sen git koskoca Sun King'in karısına göz koy Livi uzaktan habersiz takılsın imkansız yani ilk volumelerdeki Livi mutlaka Nike'nin yanına korumadır ajandır falan koyardı böyle saldım çayıra mevlam kayıra göndermezdi ki Nike'ye de sinir oldum bu volume hep bir kafası karışık hep bir sevgi pıtırcığı ya sen kendine gel kendine! Neyse volume sonunda Liviuscuğum bir hışımla gidiyoruz dedi bakalım neler olacak Livi'nin psikopat tarafını görmeyi özledik
Un tome avec une intrigue assez simple, certains dessins sont plutôt jolis. Je lirais surement le suivant, mais j'espère que les choses évolueront un peu plus et que cela sortira de l'ordinaire, car pour l'instant ce shojo ne se démarque pas trop. Même si le début m'intéressait plutôt, j'ai l'impression que le rythme s’essouffle un peu et que l'histoire tourne en rond.
I love the depth of this manga in this volume, the conflict of saving a multitude versus quenching your own heart's passion or dreams is such a realistic and difficult one. I love the story and art.
This volume brings us the first real threat to Livius and Nike's relationship, and the thing of it is, you can see where this story could have been just as good, if not a little more heartwarming. But Shiina never lets us forget that Livi and Nike really do love each other, so it's more of a "what if" than anything. Also interesting is that Shiina's depiction of the Kingdom of Sand doesn't strictly rely on a single vision of the middle east - it's much more inclusive and totally devoid of harem pants.
After finishing all of the mangas. The desert prince is still my favorite, like yes Levius is the MC and the first 5 volumes establish him to be likeable but Desert prince isss...he's somewhat of a better version with reasonable motivations???
