Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu are once again summoned to Cephiro. The second story arc deals with the complications caused by the first season’s climax: three warring planets, Autozam, Fahren, and Chizeta, have begun their attempts to conquer Cephiro and a new Pillar must be chosen before the whole planet is destroyed. After a short defensive fight against Emeraude, the Magic Knights had no choice but to kill her. Her dark side then took over, seeking to destroy the Magic Knights for killing her love. After the girls find and destroy Zagato, they finally reach Emeraude, but they learn that she had fallen in love with Zagato, hindering her ability to pray solely for Cephiro’s well-being, Zagato had attempted to solve the problem on his own terms by stealing and imprisoning Emeraude, but feeling responsible for her actions, she summoned the Magic Knights to kill her since no one on Cephiro could harm the Pillar. They are given a bizarre creature named Mokona to guide them on their journey. The three girls are charged with the task of saving the Princess by activating the three Rune-Gods (魔神 Mashin). In the first story arc, the current Pillar, Princess Emeraude, has been captured by her high priest, Zagato. One person, the Pillar, whose will is stronger than anyone else’s, is responsible for maintaining through her prayers the well-being of Cephiro.” The dark fears in people’s hearts become monsters, while a well-intended wish can do miracles. Clef explains, “, one’s will has the ability to change reality for better or worse. They fall through the sky into another world, Cephiro. The girls are blinded by a flash of light and hear a voice calling for the Legendary Magic Knights to save Cephiro. Hikaru Shidou, Umi Ryuuzaki, and Fuu Hououji are on a field trip to the Tokyo Tower with their respective schools. So I’ll leave you with a summary of the plot from my friend Wikipedia, and a link to the character profiles, also from Wikipedia. And why? I can still appreciate some much deeper things in the series, and I just can’t help but love the characters. It’s aimed at teenage or pre-teen girls and it’s quite wholesome and fun, but I’ve loved it for all these years. Yes, Magic Knight Rayearth is a magical girl anime, a little like Sailor Moon. Or rather, my terrible rambly 20-chapter alternate universe fanfiction brought us together.

We’ve been friends for aaaages, all because this series brought us together. And then when I was perhaps 14, I met my best friend, Jade, on. Then I got the manga from Tokyopop, and suddenly everything made a lot more sense, including the whole Fuu/Ferio thing. “What’s going on, Hikaru, Eagle?” Lantis asked, “Are you thinking of staying here? You need to be more careful, like Eagle says, before you get permanently stuck here against your better judgement.” NaNoWriMo – Day 21

This was exactly what Fuu had said earlier without thinking. Hikaru looked surprised and covered her hand with her mouth in realisation. You are speaking as if you have decided to stay here, and I’m sure you wish to return home to Earth at least a few more times before making that kind of commitment.” “ New Cephiro, Eagle, we did tell you,” Hikaru corrected, looking up at Eagle’s mirror, “Our country is so beautiful, I’m hardly surprised that it has helped you so much, so soon.”Įagle raised his eyebrows and looked a little sad, “Hikaru, please be careful how you speak about Cephiro – New Cephiro.

At some point in the recent past, Clef had conjured some kind of magic mirror so that Eagle could see whatever was going on outside the window at Ferio’s end of the castle – it was the best view of Cephiro for miles around, after all. “So, the beautiful land of Cephiro has healed me,” Eagle mused, looking up at the ceiling. Pretty much covers their current predicament.
