Description

Blurb:
From a dying planet shall come the children of light...While on vacation on a small island, young Shiina Tamai dives under the water near an old shrine and discovers an unearthly starfish-like creature. She nearly drowns but is rescued by the silent, wide-eyed little animal, who Shiina befriends and names Hoshimaru. To Shiina`s surprise and delight, the creature changes shape, lets Shiina stand on him, and the two fly off into the clouds. But what looks to be a young girl`s ultimate fantasy soon takes a darker turn as Shiina and Hoshimaru become entangled in a struggle between rival extraterrestrial factions who battle in the skies upon huge alien beasts called Shadow Dragons, with the fate of Earth hanging in the balance.
Die junge Schülerin Shiina Tamai besucht im Sommer gerade ihre Großeltern, als sie ein seltsames, sternförmiges Wesen findet. Sie tauft es Hoshimaru und nimmt es mit nach Hause. Kurze Zeit später trifft Shiina andere Kinder, die wie sie ein »Drachenkind« besitzen, aber im Gegensatz zu ihr wissen wie man diese Wesen kontrolliert. Und anscheinend wollen sie die »Drachenkinder« dazu benutzen, um die Welt in ein Utopia zu verwandeln und dabei nehmen sie selbst den Tod vieler Menschen in Kauf.
Testo della bandella:
Shiina Tamai è una ragazzina come tanti altre. Finita la scuola, va in vacanza nell’isola in cui abitano i nonni, e in seguito a un’apnea forzata in mare, annega. Mentre le ricerche del suo corpo diventano sempre più disperate, Shiina si ritrova sulla terraferma senza sapere come ci è arrivata. Ma durante la notte le appare una piccola creatura mutaforma che – dopo qualche istante – ricorda di aver visto sul fondo del mare, scambiandola per una bizzarra stella marina. Fra i due si instaura un bizzarro e inspiegabile legame mentre nei cieli del Giappone iniziano ad apparire strani oggetti volanti di natura completamente ignota…
