What's New?

| Kakan no
Madonna (= The Flower Crown Madonna) is a shoujo manga written and drawn by Chiho Saito. It consists of seven volumes and is loosely based on history of the High Renaissance, Italia, around the beginning of the 16. century. * Story * The main character is Leonora, the daughter of an inpoverished noble of Padua. She is a beautiful silver-haired, emerald-green-eyed girl and very good at fighting with the sword. One day, she is forced to marry an arrogant young noble, but she discovers on the day of their wedding that this man intends to use her to become king of Italia because she is involved in an ancient Italian legend: Leonara is the girl shown on "Kakan no Madonna", a famous painting drawn by Leonardo DaVinci. There exists a legend that tells whoever gets the legendary sword "Emerald Lion" will unite and rule over Italia. And the secret hiding-place of the sword can be found with "Kakan no Madonna" - Leonara... In order to find out the truth of the portrait's secret related her and to hide her identity as Kakan no Madonna, Leonara disguises herself as a black-haired boy, Leo, and sets out to find DaVinci. On the way she meets Falco, the blond-haired handsome prince of Napoli, who is unaware that she is a girl , and becomes his servant. When she finally finds DaVinci, she hears with surprise that she - the girl portrayed in Kakan no Madonna - is destined to possess the legendary Emerald Lion and therefore to become king of Italia.

About the use of my web pages
:
|
I scanned all manga and anime pictures and some
other pictures ( except the ring logos) from my manga books, artbooks and
other sources, and I have spent much time on working on them and
on the design of the web pages. So my web pages and the pictures in
my pages are unique, and most of the motifs of the pictures haven't been
on the Internet yet.
Please do _not_ use my web page design, and if you want to use any picture from my web pages on other web pages, please ask me before. |
You are the . since Dec 28,
1997 who wants to find out
the secret of the legendary "Kakan no Madonna".
