Description
This is one of the most well-known titles by Yamagishi Ryouko. It shocked the public immensely when first published, because the story depicted how the legendary regent of Japan, Prince Shoutoku - who also supported the spread of the new religion; Buddhism - fell in love with a man, suffering because of it, and acting on his unrequited love. This is no ordinary shounen-ai manga, but its homoerotic theme is the biggest motivating force behind this convoluted story with complicated language and plot-line. 'Hi Izuru Tokoro no Tenshi' is regarded as a masterpiece in the manga world.

------------------------------------------------

Historically, Prince Shoutoku Taishi lived from 574-622 AD and united Japan under the centralized government of an emperor. Known by his real name in the manga, Umayado, he is a cold and calculating politician and mystic that uses his beauty and cunning intellect to manipulate those around him. Umayado's only weakness is Emishi, the son of a rich family who Umayado finds himself hopelessly attracted to.
