If you don't like the original Shakespeare play, you wont like the manga. I never really liked the Tempest, but I figured maybe reading a different interpretation of it would allow me to see it from a different perspective and maybe like it more. While this was an interesting interpretation of the Tempest and the artwork was great, it is essentially the same story and I still didn't like it. Of course that wont stop me from giving the other manga shakespeare's a try. ( )
