   Fan Service? Oh Yes...
I started watching Saiyuki in November. I finished watching the last remaining episodes of a 50 episode 1st series and 26 episode 2nd series a week ago. I finished reading the 55th chapter of the first manga series last night... and I'm now almost done the RELOAD series, currently available fan translated from MangaCity. The Second Volume that's listed but not available on that website is available from Silent Moon, right here.

A-hem.

I feel I owe all womankind and - specifically Kazuya Minekura, who draws this incredibly beautiful stuff - an apology for saying this... but it's still pure, refined estrogen crack.

The manga has detail and continuity that the anime doesn't. It's astoundingly beautiful in so many ways, and gut-wrenchingly sick in so many more, and ...

ah, who am I kidding?

They get tossed in a river at the beginning of the "Against the Stream" storyline, and for the next 6 volumes they wander around soaking wet with no shirts on.

I'm sorry everyone. I don't listen to "boy bands", my wallpaper is a tropical island with no people visible, my calendar contains pictures of kittens...

Curse you, Kazuya! Curse you and your Marlboro-smoking monk!

So I made some wallpaper for it. Should be up under Saiyuki wallpaper. And if you're silly enough to want another addiction, go get some at those links.
