Legacy of CLAMP's Masterpiece
The original Magic Knight Rayearth is a landmark shoujo manga series written and illustrated by the legendary creative group CLAMP. Originally serialized in Nakayoshi magazine from November 1993 to February 1995, the manga inspired a classic 1994 television adaptation, a 1997 OVA, and several video game adaptations.
Kodansha, which publishes the series in English, outlines the core premise:
Three girls who couldn’t be more different meet on a school trip to Tokyo Tower—and find themselves beamed into a parallel world called Cefiro, where the mysterious Pillar has recruited them to avert a calamity! With the help of a motley troop of rogues and wizards, they will unlock the power of three transforming giant dragons known as Rune Gods and rush to the Pillar’s aid…but there’s more going on at the heart of Cefiro than they know!
