Fushigi Yuugi is a Japanese manga (and then anime) series originally written and illustrated by Watase Yuu, famouse for other series such as Ayashi no Ceres and Zettai Kareshi. The manga started serialization in Sho-Comi in May of 1992 and was completed in June of 1996, spanning 18 volumes in total. The anime series, which was 52 episodes long and including a number of OVAs, originally aired in April of 1995 through March of 1996. There were then 13 light novels about the various Suzaku and other seishi's lives, which were illustrated by Watase.

Clearly, there is a lot of canon for the original series. Then, in 2003, quite a number of years after the original series' completion, Watase started the series that Rimudo belongs to: Fushigi Yuugi Genbu Kaiden, a prequel to the original series.
