Yes, when he's Kenren in Heaven Nah, not then! During when teh four first met. Goyjo grew his hair out to hide teh scars him mother gave him, but decided to cut it because he no longer had anything to prove.

Tho' teh explanation in teh anime is slightly different--he cuts his hair in protest to what he THINKS is Hakkai's death as punishment for killing all those demons, then lets it grow back when he finds that Hakkai is still living, just has a new name. I, myself, PREFER Goyjo with teh long hair, tho' it IS true you can see those pretty eyes much better when it's short. *sighs dreamily--"Ahhhhhh.......water sprite....."*

My extremely overactive imagination added another character in my mind to go along with them. Not really self-insertion, but kinda... But I find myself doing that with a lot of series, though...

Well, that's why we all ended up here, right? But I never did that with Saiyuki. Nor have I done that with a bunch of other things I liked just fine teh way they were (i.e. FMA).

But I find myself doing that with a lot of series, though... I don't do that as often as I used-ta'--for me, it's really MORE like I wish they were "REAL" people, because I like them so much AS people [Yes, EVEN Sanzo!], sorta' like teh way I feel about Mario from "Gene Shaft" or Hughes from FMA.... [Bounds up to Sanzo and gives him a CRUSHING BIG HUG, in SPITE of his strugglin'! "Get OFF of me, you DEMON WOMAN!!!" yelps Sanzo, tryin'-ta reach his gun-- "Yeah, and I wuv you ,TOO, Mr. High Priest!" I snicker happily, leaving BEFORE he can get a "bead" on me with his Banishing Gun--"Ta-ta!"]

Hey, I like both looks!!

Besides--I REALLY liked teh irony of Goyjo being teh FIRST [and maybe only] of teh four to get married [not counting Hakkai, since he's now a widower, technically], and to MIHO, of all women......I think it works [Besides--there is NOTHING more pathetic than an aging "lady's man" who refuses to "grow-up"! Witness Capt. Kirk--*BLEAH!*]
