  Tenchi wo Kurau is a Japanese manga series by Hiroshi Motomiya. The storyline is set in the Three Kingdoms period, when Western Shu, Northern Wei and Eastern Wu battled to conquer all of China.
  
  ## Plot
  
  Liu Bei is a descendant of Liu Sheng, prince Jing of Zhongshan of the Han Dynasty. Cao Cao is the adopted grandchild of Cao Teng, a eunuch in the palace. Sun Jian is the governor of Jiangdong. The three show their marvelous leading-role to divide China to three states: Shu, Wei and Wu.
  
  A significant difference is the use of fantasy elements; for example, many villains in the beginning are monsters as opposed to humans. Liu Bei meets a beautiful giant heavenly being in heaven, and she gives him the power to conquer the country. He meets and swears to be brothers with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
