Fushigi no Umi no Nadia is a digital comic featuring Nadia
and Jean, two kids and hero characters of a famous japanese animation series.
The story of the game follows the anime series, however it seems to be
happening right in the middle of it.
Most of the game happen on Lincoln island after the Nautilus, a powerful
submarine, is destroyed by Argon, the baddy of the story. Like any
digital comic, the player only pick choices (all in japanese) from a
menu and the story unfolds depending what option was selected. The
game also offers a short quiz game where you can either play with
the good or bad guys of the story.

Once again, even if my knowledge of the japanese language is getting
better every week after all the time I spend learning Kanas and Japanese grammar,
I still can not enjoy a digital comic in full. However, I must admit
Fushigi no Umi no Nadia is not that complex if you already know
the animated series. The amount of choices, compared to other digital
comics, is poor and do not really stop your progression. Graphics are
nice but could have been better I think. All in all, it is an interesting
title for any fan the animated series who has some knowledge of Japanese.
