The Water Dragon's Bride Special

The Water Dragon's Bride Special


I read the special chapter of the water dragon’s Bride.
This is not contained in the final volume of comics.

After reincarnation of the water dragon god, he stayed at Asahi’s home, 
Asahi’s parents both can’t see the water dragon god, whereas the little brother can see him.

It was a relief that I see both Asahi and the water dragon live happily ever after.

The Water Dragon's Bride Vol.11

The Water Dragon's Bride Vol.11

In this 11th volume, the power of the water dragon god has weakened. Before the death, the water dragon god sent out Asahi with the last power.

The water dragon went to reincarnate in the world in which Asahi lives. The water dragon wants to wait until it becomes free water and meets Asahi.

The water dragon god is alone in the world of Asahi, from the time before the Kofun period to the present day, it is a long and daunting time. Having dreams of only memories with Asahi, he was awaiting for her. During that time, when he first met Asahi, he regret that he had deprived of Asahi's voice and that he was merciless.

 I wonder whether the water dragon god became human at the end.

I'm glad that Asahi was able to reunite with the water dragon. But I wondered what happened to the two people later, whether it was a bit of digestive problems. Can water dragon live in the present age? The water dragon god did not become human. What will he do in the future?

The Water Dragon’s Bride, Vol. 1

This is a cross-world fantasy by Rei Toma.

I was expecting a sweet shoujo manga romance, however, this series isn't actually. This story is a lot more serious than I expect.

Asahi is living a normal, sheltered life, but she has suddenly got pulled into a pond and been flung into another world. The new world looks like an ancient era in Japan. There Asahi meets Subaru, the son of the most prominent family in the village. Subaru helps Asahi and brings her home. Subaru's mother dislikes Asahi, however, and plots to sacrifice Asahi as a bride to the water dragon god in the Great Lake...

This manga is sometimes sad, serious and cruel, but it focuses on Asahi's personal growth as she is forced to overcome nearly impossible odds in order to survive. Asahi is able to get up and continue onwards and not let herself be defeated by these experiences.

I find the artwork to be beautiful and the characters to be wonderful.

I love Subaru's determination and kind spirit. I am very interested in seeing how Asahi and the water dragon god change throughout the entire story.
