Booklist - 05/15/2022 Saigami is an action-packed adventure-­fantasy manga that features a trio of teens on a quest to master the innate powers they discover. Hanasaki Ayumi receives a mysterious letter from someone claiming to be her father, a man who abandoned her when she was still a child. While on her way to meet this stranger, she is accidentally teleported to a strange world where she meets Sean and Reyji. She learns about saigami, a special sect of people who are born with the ability to control certain elements. Together they set out to find how she got there and the secrets her arrival holds. Seny’s engaging story will easily hold readers’ interest, thanks in no small part to her skilled manga artwork. The characters are playful but serious when they need to be, and they mesh well together as a team. Saigami is a great introduction to the manga format for readers looking for a welcoming entry point, but long-time manga readers will also likely find plenty to enjoy. - Copyright 2022 Booklist.
