A stinking monk, a monkey with a stomach instead of a brain, a water sprite who can't swim and a guy who acts like the mother; who would like to read about them? ME! Crazy you'd say but it happens to be one of my favourite mangas ^^

Saiyuki's story revolves around these four guys and the journey they are making, but as the story unfolds, you come to see that their 'field trip' Big Grin is not really what it seems to be. Sometimes, I even wonder if they will ever reach their destination but oh well, for the time being, I'm just focusing on what's happening :meow:

What I really liked about this manga is the feelings that are conveyed through it. It's all seems so real, even in a world of fantasy ^^ Nothing like what I've read before... The seriousness of the story is easily forgotten with the comedy that the manga-ka has included in it, and you are soon transported to their world... and... not to forget, the guys are HAWT!!!!!!

Hmmm... I'm going to try the first volume, but from what I saw I don't think it quite suite my taste. I just skimmed through it. I see Youkai, which I find interesting. Almost every manga/anime with youkai is instant interest, in my case.
I guess I need to read it thoroughly. Smile
Thanks for the download. I've been searching for Gaiden forever.
Aside from the plot hole wherein the guys are taking a really long time to get to the West when their enemies can get to them in, like, a day (seriously, they should just steal those dragon-things), it's a fun series.

You forgot about the little dragon that turns into a jeep. LOL.
@ Kakkou
You should really try it =) Worth it ^^

@ BBB
Yeah, I did forget about Hakuryu :| LOL, but it is a fun series =P Especially when Sanzo is trying to deal with Goku and Gojyo Tongue
Saiyuki!!! Yay! Thanks zush. *snuggles*

My fave is Cho Hakkai in the anime. Haven't read the manga though so thanks. :banzai:

edit: ey zush I'm having trouble with megaupload :cries:
Saiyuki is a manga whose art takes some getting used to. I know a lot of people who are turned off by Minekura's art. Something about the eyes and face shapes.

Much love for Kenren/Gojyo and Dokugakuji. Ever noticed how all the girls in this series have really big... assets?

@xng: If you're not a member of Megaupload, you have to wait a bit. I think I had to wait, like, five minutes for available bandwidth. Smile
@ xng
I'll try to upload it to the other hosts, but you might have to wait for some time ^.^ Bear with it for the moment *hugs*

@BBB
LOL... Yeah, Yaone :| Whoa, I wonder how she carries all that.. weight Tongue And the Goddess... Damn, forgot her name <_< She's decent in the anime but in the manga... Whoaaaaaaaa....

But it did take some time for me to get used to it, not much though. Maybe because I didn't read in on PC but got the manga itself. My favourite characters are Sanzo and Kougaiji... and Hakkai... and... well... I guess everyone Tongue
I think those ummm.... assets... were made for 'eye candy' or 'fan service and all that' and i wonder why I never thought they were drawn weird. heh. Mebbe coz I only saw the anime but never read the manga. :wai:
My opinion is that the anime's art is weird. Of course, they would try to copy Minekura's manga art, which is really nice, but in the anime, the face shapes, without the proper shading, just look weird. But still, gotta love everyone.

And, yes, eye candy. Exactly.

@bbZush: Goddess of Mercy, Kanzeon Bosatsu, if I remember correctly.

I didn't know Gaiden had gotten this far until you posted this, bb. Huhm.... So many things have happened, up to Ch. 30.

Sort of Spoilers for Gaiden (Click to View)
