FINALY... I gots Saiyuki Requiem.
At first I thought it was as confusing as HELL... but after a while my mind turned to mush and I didn't care that my brain hurt and just kinda enjoyed it.
Spoilerness...
Though Hakkai scared teh CRAP outta me when he lost his temper at teh fake Kanan. OOH was HE mad.
And Poor Gojyo... is it just me or was HE picked on more than teh most... I mean he got a cut on teh wrist from that girl... and then stabbed by teh fake Hakkai... then a fake of him got shot by Sanzo. ON teh good side... he did have that shower scene and spend more than half teh anime with no shirt on.

I REFUSE to let him turn into that THING! So there.

Yeah... that thing was kinda creepy... but he did have some HELARIOUS lines... or maybe its just teh way he said them. Actually now that I've seen it... I don't rightly know HOW to deal with Dougan... he's an enigma. I mean on one hand he SEEMED to be obsessed with Sazno... but at teh same time he was even MORE obsessed with outdoing Sanzo's "friends" (and I'm using teh term lightly). I think that if Sanzo had just "dissapeared" and Dougan had never found out about teh others then he may not have gone so far over teh edge. But does that REALLY make any sense? And if you go back far enough I Think it went even further back that that to when Sanzo said something along teh lines of "we have something in common, kid." That connection was teh start of it all.

And if you go back far enough I Think it went even further back that that to when Sanzo said something along teh lines of "we have something in common, kid." That connection was teh start of it all. Basically, I think Dougan has one of those kinda' "needy" personalities that has a tendency to look to others for both affirmation as well as self-approval--In other words, he sees his worth ONLY thru' teh eyes of other people. He probably woulda' "fixated" on ANYONE, it just happened to be Sanzo Genjo he chose, much to his undoing.....because Sanzo has a problem with self-worth, HIMSELF, po' boy, all having to do with what he sees as his personal failure to save his Mentor from a violent, bloody death. [What his problem in Heaven was, I'm still not sure, tho' I THINK it ties into a certain amount of guilt, again, maybe THIS time for not taking a more open stand against teh things that were happening around him...] Anyway, I feel that where Sanzo may have "failed" Dougan was that he didn't notice him ENOUGH to see teh hero worship that was going on--if he HAD noticed it, Sanzo would have reacted teh way he USUALLY does when someone gets too close--YELL at them to get a life and STOP liking him, ALREADY! Which, ironically, MIGHT have been JUST what Dougan needed teh most, BEFORE it had gone too far..... Of course, teh OTHER thing that Dougan needs DESPERATELY is to be LO-VED, but with a firm hand--which, ODDLY ENOUGH, is EXACTLY what I think SCHU, of all people, can DO for him! [NO, I DON'T mean like pedaphilia, people!]

Yeah, po' Goyjo DID have a hard time of it in "Requiem"--it actually made me HURT when teh fake Hakkai stabbed him, partly because for a very brief moment, Goyjo actually thought it was teh REAL Hakkai, and teh two of them have a special bond, having to do with Goyjo being teh one who found him immediately AFTER he "survived" his attempted rescue of Kanan......

Oh yeah... I forgot about that. THERE's a beautieful piece of Irony for you... "Hakkai" gave Gojyo a very similar wound to teh one teh REAL one has... though without teh guts needing to be "put back in" thing.

[And, if Goyjo HADN'T been helped, he woulda' ended up in much teh same "condition" teh real Hakkai did, too....]

Just wondering--How did you guys like teh voices in teh anime? If you're talking about teh English VA's for teh first "Saiyuki" series and teh "Requiem" movie-- LOOOOOOOOOOOVED them to BITS!!!! [Especially Goyjo, done by Illich Guardiola--now THERE'S an interesting name!] As for "Reload"--haven't seen it yet, but I suspect I will REALLY MISS Goyjo's previous English VA....... [Okay, so I'm FASCINATED by his slightly "odd' accent, and he sounds SEXY--so sue me! ]

Hey! Has anyone other than me listened to teh Comentary? It's not as good as teh one for Puni Puni Poemi, but its good... And you get to hear everyone's NORMAL voices... which surprisingly are ALOT like their characters... Except David Matranga, who sounds alot more relaxed than Sanzo. I was surprised how much like Hakkai Braden Hunt sounded... THAT was eerie.
