I really like Saiyuki, I think it's got a great story line and really in depth characters, plus all the main guys are Bishonen material ^_~
Yeah, so does anyone else watch Saiyuki, it would be cool to see, tell me who your favourite character is. Mines Sanzo.....he's cool! ^^

The name does ring a bell, and if I'm correct, my favorite character is Goku.
I saw a couple of episodes once, though I don't recall that much of them. Saiyuki hasn't been on tv here, but I think one of my friends has some stuff about it...anywho, I must say that it's a real nice anime. I love the way it's drawn and you're right, all the guys are bishonen. :)

Yay! Someone agrees!:) Yeah, I think Goku's pretty good too, he's funny ^^

Goku is also my favourite char, he is really cool in GT, thats why I startet the DBZ thread. ^_^

I wish I had more anime though

There's a character in Saiyuki called Goku....completly different from the DBZ one....except for the eating! ^^

Yeah. True, Goku from DBZ is pretty cool too. Though he's the perfect exemple of a brainless jock, if you know what I mean. But he's sweet.

Anywayz, Goku from Saiyuki is someone totally different. Except for, like Imi said before, the eating. This Son Goku (even the last name is the same) is an entirely different one.

The story of Saiyuki is loosly based on a Chinese novel,"Xiyouji" or "Journey to the West" by Wu Cheng'en. You might have read it, it's fairly known. The story is pretty complicated, and since I don't know that much of it, it sure is hard for me to tell. So here is something I copied from a website.
==>Saiyuki’s tale follows the perilous journey of an unorthodox, pistol-packing monk by the name of Genjo Sanzo-Sanzo being the title bestowed upon the highest order of monk who guards the Holy Scriptures of Heaven and Earth. Genjo Sanzo and his three wise-cracking demonic companions must journey to India from China in order to stop the resurrection of a sinister demon of tremendous power known as Gyumaoh, whose rebirth could tear the already chaotic world asunder.

Oh damn...That last post was mine, by the way. Stupid computer. ::wacks it with a mallet::
Oh well, guess I lost that point.:sheep:

Man now I feel really stupid, time to commence with the putting of my shoe in my mouth, and just keep quite, since I don't know anything>>>....

Goodbye

Don't be silly, JWalt. You know perfectly well that your opinion is respected and appreciated. Everyone makes mistakes.
Besides, I would've made the same mistake if I didn't go "Saiyuki"-hunting on the web. So there. :P

Big kiss! :kiss:

Wow, hadn't checked on this thread for a while, Saiyuki sure did kick up a fuss ^^
And yeah, don't worry JWalt, when I first heard of Saiyuki and it's Goku I immediatly thought of the DBZ one, no worries ^^

I'd heard of the legend/play"?" before and you can find references to it in other manga/anime series. Like um. Love Hina. lol
one of my other fav. series. I have seen some of the Saiyuki episodes though. The world used to have humans and demons living next to each other peacefully then the demons went postal. lol

*nods* Cool, other people know it too. I'm not alone ^-^

How many seasons are there for saiyuki recently?

*thinks* I'm not too sure...there was Gensomaden Saiyuki, Saiyuki Reload and Saiyuki Gaiden....and the movie...I've seen something on the internet called Saiyuki Reload Gunlock but I'm not sure what that is *shrugs*

I once played Saiyuki in Playstation. I don't like it because of the battle type(tactics). But i think the story is good.
