Have you read this manga?
It's based on Gaston Leroux's book "The Phantom of the opera". The autor is JET. It's a Shojo-Horror manga. There is only one volume. The synopses: Based on the book by Gaston Leroux, JET has transformed the story of The Phantom of the Opera into a visual masterpiece. The Phantom, who has been haunting the opera house for years, take Christine under his wing and works to bring out her true singing potential. Once Raoul enters the scene, the Phantom forbids her from seeing him again and begins putting pressure on the opera house owners to let Christine be the star of the opera house. As the Phantom's warnings are ignored, he begins a reign or terror on the opera house as well as try to kill Raoul, whom he perceives as a rival for Chirstine's affections. At one point, the Phantom takes Christine away to his underground home deep in the Parisian aqueducts. He is hoping to woo her but his plans are set back as Christine's curiosity gets the better of her and she removes the Phantom's mask to get a better look at her Angel of Music. As all seems to turn against him, the Phantom gets more desperate finally kidnapping Christine to force her to marry him. Raoul is able to get a hint as to where they have gone and tries to save her. The Phantom traps Raoul in a noose and tells Christine that if he is to be saved, she must marry him. Christine says that she will, but the Phantom realizes that she will never love him as he desires. He frees them both and leaves to face the pursuing police and is killed.

I haven't read it myself, but I'm definitely going to suggest it to my cousin now, who loves the Phantom Of The Opera story.

Is this only in Japan? I haven't heard anything about it here. Seems like it would make for a cool manga.

Probably is, especially if it's a more recent thing. |
