A great historical romance. Although the story could have ended at several points, it is still interesting enough to keep reading. The main character does not seem to have a big conflict between "modernity" (modern technology and politics) and the historical setting, so the fact that she is from another world seems pretty pointless. Still, a great read!
THUMBS UP!

Because there's no such manga that I yet to call as "perfect manga" or I doubt it would even exist..maybe in heaven? However, because Anatolia Story is one of the very good mangas I've read!! I love it..but as I said I can't give 10 to it even if it's one of my most favorite mangas!
great manga

I started out liking this series quite a bit, regardless of its flaws. Now, after having read 13 volumes I feel it skipped 4 possible endings due to popularity. It simply feels drawn out now, the next plot and twist feels like the last and nothing has been resolved.
Not to mention the extreme stupidity that they use in many cases, as well as the lack of proper education the main girl has. If you know how to make one modern day thing from beginning to end you could totally change the position of your country, but does she know something as simple as a bellows? No...

The best historical romance you'll ever read , worth every penny, and i'm really happy that it's sooo long , i can't wait for the next volume to come out from Viz
i love this manga. actually this is the only manga series ive bought and I'm going to collect all of them <3 but i think it is getting a bit off topic and now the queen only wants the girl dead now. =_= no real point.
