From Publishers Weekly
With more self-awareness, this magical historical romance could be a parody of goth-styled fantasy manga, but it's played all too straight, and the result is flat and incoherent. During a train wreck, Sekai and a mysterious cherub-like boy clutching a doll are thrown back in time. There, a version of her school crush tries to rape her, after saving her from mysterious forces who want to burn her as a witch. The layouts are poorly constructed, leading the reader to wonder which balloon or caption comes next, and Sekai is all staring marble eyes, short petticoats and frilly garters. It's sub-par fantasy fulfillment, with the girl dueled over by a variety of boys who want to claim her in exotic, historical settings. Sekai is a pawn, not knowing what's happening to her or why, desired by the boys because possessing her (in one way or another) will grant them power. She's got a magical gemstone somehow welded to her body and every so often, faux-poetic folklore is dropped in to hint at a backstory that's trying to impart some amount of meaning to this adolescent daydream.

Book Description
Once upon a time, the source of the devil R's invincible powers was The Book of S & M. But one day, a young man stole the book without knowing what it was, cut it into strips and used it to create a girl doll named "S" and a boy doll named "M" out of papier-mache. With that act, the unimaginable power that the devil held from the book was divided between the two dolls! While on a class trip in France, Sekai is rescued from a terrible accident by a mysterious young man and the doll known as "S." Soon, however, Sekai discovers that she's not only lost in a foreign country--she's also lost in time! From the creators of the manga classic that inspired the anime Revolutionary Girl Utena comes a dark and gripping Gothic fantasy.
