The story was a Japanese manga series created by Fukutomi Shichiyuki and started in 1992. The story was about the swordsman Hua Wuque and his companions who lived in Japan during the Edo period. They fought a series of battles to protect their homeland. Hua Jiang Lou had a wide audience in Japan and Asia and was considered a classic in Japanese comics.
Well, a scentless flower in manga might have various meanings. It could imply hidden beauty that's not obvious at first glance. Or it could contrast with other fragrant flowers to show uniqueness or isolation. Sometimes, it might just be a visual element used for aesthetic purposes without a deep symbolic meaning.
This question involved a classic online novel, Journey to the West, but the novel was not consistent with the movie.
Journey to the West was an ancient Chinese literary work that told the story of Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Monk Sand helping the Tang Monk to go to the West to obtain scriptures. In the novel, Sun Wukong was sealed in a lotus flower by Buddha because he was mischievous. Tang Sanzang came to the lotus flower to save Sun Wukong and finally plucked the lotus flower to save Sun Wukong.
Although there were similar plots in the movie, they were not the same work.
I don't think there's a connection. 'Does the Flower Bloom' manga might have its own independent distribution and availability, separate from Manga Rock.
Maybe the manga tells of how the princess discovers the flower and how it changes her life. It could also be that the flower grants her special abilities or leads her to meet important allies.
It often symbolizes purity emerging from impurity or strength in adverse conditions. The lotus flower's presence in the mud can add depth and meaning to the story.
