Manga Fox: Cinema Empire Manga Series

I'm a fan of Japanese Manga especially the Shoujo-Romance genre and trust me this is a must read for fans alike. Love can never be this complicated and yet so cruelly seductive, you just can't put it down! The plot starts with a Love Triangle that evolves into siblings rivalry for success in show business as well as the love and affection from Kaori, a sought after lady with supernatural power. The plots thicken when a will left by their late father that whomever Kaori chose to marry will not inherit the Hakuto's Cinema Empire. The shock was a heavy burden for the lovers who have been keeping their relationship under-wrap, without themselves knowing that Youhei, the youngest brother had known it all along. Seiya, a cutthroat businessman in my opinion was too ambitious and an idealist he chose to betray Kaori's love. Pushed in a corner Youhei stepped up and took Kaori as his wife and confess his secret obsession of undying love for her. The forlorn Kaori and Youhei a struggling independent director sets their journey into show business with much less with nothing but with advantage of Kaori's left eye.

Seiya's character change after realizing that Kaori is no longer at his expense and all this while he had never stop loving her. It was totally by fate that the brothers was meant to compete, the movie written and directed by Youhei was stolen and plagiarized by his own friend. The same movie his brother is producing. It's all due to Kaori's 'gift' and hard work that they were able to finish the movie and put it on screen regardless of the obstacles that they have to face. Meanwhile, Youhei's and Kaori's relationship starts to shake with a third wheel on board the immature and childish actress Sarina. Kaori tried to love her husband but in the same time still holding a torch over Seiya. The night the filming finished Sarina confess his one-sided love, Youhei spent the night coaxing the devastated actress and regretfully lead to drunkenness night well spent in a cheap hotel. Meanwhile, Kaori who was struggling to promote the film with yet another cinema empire equal to Hakuto's level met a minor injury during a forceful confrontation with Seiya. She was admitted to a hospital and indirectly later announced pregnant.

living a life as celebrities and under public scrutiny made Youhei's a target for scandals and threaten his marriage with Kaori. After winning the bet from Seiya, Youhei's movie ranked no. 2 nationwide, he was happy but he can't help feeling that Seiya is after his wife. Once again, Kaori had to face yet another betrayal from her lover-husband who scandal made public of his infidelity with Sarina. The gossip when national and affected the movie ratings, Sarina stupid declaration of love to Youhei pushed Kaori to divorce Youhei in order to save him from Sarina's angry fans. However, the overemotional Youhei wouldn't accept the turning point of event and took matters in his own hand by trying to commit suicide. The public and Sarina's fan-craze injured Kaori mentally and physically she end up in the same hospital as Youhei. Seiya learned that the baby was his and plead Kaori to choose him. He vowed that he had never loved or will love anyone else beside her. Meanwhile, Youhei is on the verge of dying.

In the final chapters, Kaori stayed by her husband's side and nursed him to health. Meanwhile, the movie went international, it won an award and gain numerous accolade by movie critics. Sarina made her debut as a sought after actress of the year and left Youhei, due to show business pressure (BITCH!). Kaori refuse Seiya and Youhei woke up from his coma. The first thing that came out of his mouth is that he has another script on his mind (a true artist!) He let Kaori go and said his work is his life, he will strive in them from that day onward (WTF!!). After three years, Youhei became a well known director and Seiya left Hakuto to search for Kaori who had been missing ever since. In the last pages, Kaori sitting in a living room with her three year old son facing the sun, when Seiya appeared and said "I finally found you" (waaaaaaa huhuhu *LOVE in the end sighhhh)

I feel angry and disappointed with Seiya who followed his father's wishes blindly and hurt Kaori by inviting her to the hotel which he spent with another actress. He coldly suggest Kaori to choose Youhei and he can't possibly let go of the Business. Meanwhile, Youhei's regardless of his undying love confession for Kaori made me question who is he trying to convince? I agree with his friend when he question him that and left him dumbfounded. He made a huge blunder by having sex with his own main actress due to drunken mistake. He even try committing suicide when Kaori who tried to save him through divorce. I lost all respects even though he was a very driven and ambitious director with natural talent. I REALLY HATE Sarina, who didn't realize it was Kaori who spotted her with her left eye on her talents. She stole her man and made it as if it was Kaori's fault why Youhei committed suicide. She was the true villain because 1) she seduced the vulnerable Youhei 2) she made a childish declaration that ignite the publics wrath on Youhei and alienated his move 3) she had the nerve to say it was Kaori's fault when she didn't even know the roots of the problem to start with 4) In the end she left Youhei for her career instead, such a BITCH!
