End of this superb manga series. Noriko, the main character, has been captured by Izark, the most villainous character in this series. Izark's actions send shockwaves through the story. When Izark notices that Noriko has been kidnapped, he panics and immediately sets out to find her. His search leads him into a fierce fight with Keimos. In this book, Noriko undergoes a significant transformation. She realizes her true power and discovers the reason why she was transferred to that strange world. It's an epic moment that leaves readers on the edge of their seats. The story reaches its climax with this revelation, and fans of the series are eagerly awaiting the next installment to see how Noriko will use her newfound power to fight against the forces of evil.

This is a series reread.


Kanata Kara follows the journey of Noriko, a girl who is spontaneously transported into another world. She finds herself at the center of impending prophecies. Her initial traveling companion, Izark, has a fate that deeply intertwines with hers and that of the world. The pair embarks on a journey across the continent as they strive to understand each other, sort out their fate, and perhaps save the world from imminent darkness.


PROS:


- Stress on language. One of the remarkable aspects of this series is its focus on language. Noriko doesn't magically communicate with Izark and the other inhabitants upon entering the world. She has to observe, learn from others' speech, and apply it herself to assimilate. It's admirable to see how she copes when some concepts are difficult to convey in the language she's learning.


- The politics of normal people! Although the politics in Kanata Kara aren't overly complex, it敏锐地关注了压迫存在的原因,以及普通人如何被鼓励挣脱枷锁并反击。关于人们如何相互帮助,以及每个人在世界中都有自己的角色,无论这个角色对他们自己来说多么渺小或微不足道,都有一致的评论。


- The balance in Izark and Noriko's relationship. It's easy to have a power imbalance when pairing such characters. But their relationship is more developed than that. Izark needs Noriko as much as she needs him. He has moments of emotional vulnerability, while she has moments of emotional strength. They're flawed and balanced, truly complementing each other.


- The message about the world of light. Perhaps the greatest strength of Kanata Kara lies in the simplicity of its messages. In the end, there's an emphasis on looking within oneself to find light and understand the world, and the need for love, friendship, and goodwill to ensure its survival. The way this message is revealed is subtle and beautiful.


CONS:


- The lack of consistency in Noriko learning the language. While Noriko's language learning process is prominent in the first half, in the second half, her efforts seem forgotten. She appears to speak complexly despite only being in the world for a year or so. I would have liked to see her learning process as ongoing.


FINAL RATING: 4.75

The whole series

I have an intense love for these books. They offer a truly beautiful and profound representation of the nature of good and evil. It delves deep into how much of a role choice plays in the good and bad that occurs to us and that we ourselves do. Each page is filled with engaging stories and thought-provoking concepts that make it a very heartwarming read. The characters are well-developed and their struggles and triumphs are relatable. The series takes the reader on a journey through different moral dilemmas and shows how our choices can have a significant impact on our lives and the lives of those around us. It is not just a set of books, but a source of inspiration and a reminder of the power of our choices. I highly recommend this series to anyone who is looking for a good read that will touch their heart and make them think.

3.5/5 Stars

This rating of 3.5 out of 5 stars indicates a moderately good performance or quality. It suggests that the item or service being evaluated has several positive aspects but also has some areas that could be improved.

Perhaps the product functions well overall, but there might be a few minor glitches or不足之处. It could also mean that the service provided was satisfactory, yet there were some details that didn't quite meet the highest standards.

A 3.5-star rating is a balance between the good and the not-so-good. It gives potential customers or users an idea that while the offering has its merits, it may not be perfect. It encourages them to consider both the pros and cons before making a decision.

Overall, a 3.5/5 Stars rating is a decent assessment that shows the item or service has value, but there is still room for growth and improvement.

I truly relished this series throughout all of its 14 volumes. Among them, volume 7 held a special place in my heart as it was my absolute favorite.

The artwork within the series was simply lovely. Each page was a visual delight, with the illustrations bringing the story to life in the most vivid way. The hero was not only very dashing but also had a sweet side to him, which made him even more endearing.

As for the heroine, she started off with certain qualities and by the end of the series, she had become extremely determined and courageous. Her growth and development throughout the story were truly remarkable.

This is a great series for anyone who has a penchant for epic fantasy shojo mangas similar to Red River or Miriam. It has all the elements that one would expect from such a genre - a captivating storyline, well-developed characters, and beautiful artwork. It is definitely a must-read for all manga enthusiasts.

Lately, I've been experiencing withdrawals. I completed reading the entire series in just 3 days. Can you believe it? There are 14 volumes, people. 14 bloody volumes!

My heart aches whenever I recall Izark and Noriko and how incredibly cute they are together. Noriko is just so adorable.

I visited Mangafox and perused the comments that people had written about the series. They were all expressing how they have been rereading it because they love it so much. And that's when I realized it's okay to feel this way too. It's okay to reread the manga a whopping 10000000 times. It's okay to have an intense love for a story. It truly is.

I'm determined to reread this series. As many times as I desire. And I won't have any qualms or feel bad about it.

After all, when a story touches our hearts so deeply, it's only natural to want to immerse ourselves in it over and over again.

I read the entire series, but instead of adding them all to my list, I just chose the last one. ;)

I truly adored this series to the fullest!!!!!! ^_^ Even though it belonged to the Shoujo genre, it had the perfect amount of action. As you read through it, you can't help but fall deeply in love with the characters. ^_^ Moreover, the author is extremely funny. He inserts random comics about his life within the story, which provides a wonderful comic relief. ^_^ It makes the reading experience even more enjoyable and engaging. You find yourself not only immersed in the main plot but also entertained by these little snippets of the author's life. It's like getting two treats in one package. Overall, this series is a must-read for anyone who loves a good Shoujo story with a touch of action and a lot of humor.

This is one of those stories that I carry with me and have carried with me for so many years.

It's like a precious treasure that I keep close to my heart. Whenever I reach the end of the series, I feel an overwhelming sense of sadness, as if I am saying goodbye to dear friends.

"From Far Away" holds a special place in my heart. It is such a touching and beautiful story. The characters are so vivid and real, and their relationships are deeply moving.

The story takes me on an emotional journey, filled with love, loss, and hope. It makes me laugh, cry, and think. It is a story that I will never forget and will always cherish.

I highly recommend this series to anyone who loves a good story that will touch their heart and soul.

I read this entire series less than a month after finding the first book.

It was truly amazing and so incredibly cute!!!! I have a deep love for the main characters. As you progress through the stories, they seem to develop and grow, which is truly captivating.

I was so impressed that I managed to convince some of my friends who don't typically like manga to give these books a try. To my delight, they also fell in love with the series.

The ending is somewhat open-ended, but it's clear that Izark and Noriko are together and happy. Of course, it's true that they may still face some difficulties in life, but that's just the nature of life.

Overall, this series has been a wonderful and enjoyable read, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a charming and engaging story.
