There in the capital city, Akane learns that she has been foreordained to lead the people as the Priestess of the Dragon God! As Akane lays plans to find the remaining two of her Eight Guardians, she stumbles onto a mysterious instrument that sends her into a deep, paralyzing sleep. Unfortunately, the only one who can save her is one of the two Guardians she hasn't yet met!

Haruka: Beyond the Stream of Time, Volume 4 Reviews

  • Kati

    This volume contains three stories.

    - In the first one, the readers meet a little tengu that's under Yasuaki's spell. It's a really funny story too.
    - In the second part, Eisen is introduced. But I think that his character is rather lame, too kind, too bland, too puppy-ish in his immediate love for Akane.
    - The last story is a filler about two young people in love that the Hachiyou have to help get together.

    Overall, it's a good, solid addition to the series. But maybe because I saw the anime first and I know exactly what will happen and how it'll happen - the anime followed the manga quite faithfully - this manga lacks suspense for me. It's still very much worthwhile buying though and I will definitely collect all the volumes.

    I absolutely adore reverse harem series (maybe because I secretly just want to be the center of attention). The character personalities varied for the boys which I liked and their stories were really entertaining.

    Having a hard time with this series. Characters are undeveloped so much so that I forget them and then when they reappear, wonder when the appeared in the series. Please get better..(fingers crossed).
