Warning: there are some spoilers in this review.
Fushigi Yugi is about a girl named Miaka who reads a mysterious old book and is sucked into a magical other dimension. First off, the whole sucked into an alternate dimension thing is a little used, but there are a lot of plot twists in this series that make it interesting to watch. Personally, I thought that Miaka was a bit annoying. She isn't the brightest crayon in the box and it seems like she always needs to be saved by one of the many physically attractive male characters, and said male characters are in love with her. Also, Miaka is one of the only female characters in the series. In one of the episodes another female character is introduced, but we later find out that she is not a woman after all. Miaka isn't entirely unlikable, however annoying she can sometimes be. Occassionally she shows some guts and selflessness. I would recommend that you watch the sub, some of the the voices, for example the narrator, are a bit annoying, kind of like Miaka.
In future volumes I would like to see more development of male characters (there's got to be more to them than looks).
