I got into the series because of the ensemble cast, but it felt like it might have been too big for her to not end up writing herself into corners. The sudden "deep and tragic" backstories, and the truer love of MIAKA!TAMAHOME! overcoming everything at the expense of worthless sacrifices for the sake of angst got a bit much to swallow.

That and, like you said, Nakago who is so a Gary Stu with an apparent shot at redemption.

That's all true too!

I always wondered why ALL of the Seishi on every side had a tragic backstory. I always wanted to write a sequel parody story about a new Byakko no Miko who had just a bunch of regular random people as Seishi.

"So what's your tragic backstory?"
"A kid knocked over my cabbage cart by accident and I lost my day's work, but that's okay, because I have more cabbages to sell tomorrow."
"Cool."

That's what I was thinking of :P

Basically Fushigi Yuugi would be cooler if it had Avatar's caliber of characters. I don't want all this depressing shit in my escapist reverse-harem fantasy, I want relatable/fixable sad backstories D:< *fistshake!*
