Desert Coral (デザート・コーラル?) is a manga series by Wataru Murayama. Desert Coral has been published in five languages: Japanese, Thai, English (although the English publisher, ADV Manga, has dropped the series due to unknown reasons; however this is possibly due to a poor sales or lack of interest by the fans), German and Spanish. Currently, there are five volumes in Japanese, four volumes in Thai, three volumes in English; five volumes in German and five volumes in Spanish. The last, and fifth Japanese volume was released May 2004.
The manga takes place on a fantasy world of Orgos. The main character, Naoto Saki, is a visitor to this world, summoned by the sorceress Lusia during a battle with her rival, Camu. Naoto, who had already visited the world many times through his dreams but only as an invisible entity, gains a body and becomes visible to everyone else in Orgos. Naoto, however, is not a welcome visitor among the rest of Lusia's group, which calls themselves "Desert Coral", although their aloof and unfriendly attitude gradually changes over time.
