Do not move any names here! I am using the "TokyoPop" names. WhisperToMe 23:05, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)
How about moving the Gensomaden Saiyuki article to Gensomaden Saiyuki? —Tokek 14:56, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
This needs a serious cleanup. I believe this needs to be split up. --Penwhale | [[User talk:Penwhale|Blast the Penwhale]] 01:19, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
Move this article to Gensomaden Saiyuki. "Saiyuki" generically refers to the story of the Journey West and Monkey King. Put in some disambiguation link to your favorite anime article. Without the original, there would be no Gensomaden. The name "Saiyuki" is really for the original.--60.43.34.23 14:19, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, but only the first anime series is known as "Gensomaden". The title of the first manga series is simply "Saiyuki", and the series as a whole (both manga and anime) is known under that name. Perhaps the information should be reordered to bring the legend to the top, and have its adaptations follow it or be made into separate wiki pages. --Kakumei 00:07, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
How about a more detailed page on the anime/manga, with character bios, like the article on the anime/manga BLEACH? I'd love to do it, but I'm still new here, and don't really dare screw up the article...

[edit] Romanization
I changed it to "Gensomaden Saiyuki" as opposed to "Gensōmaden Saiyūki"—the Japanese best-of album uses that Romanization. urutapu 01:28, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Broken weapons
I was of the impressions that they actually created or summoned their weapons (a la goku's Nyoi Boi), as they aren't seen with them except in combat situations. Wether or not this is the case, however, I wouldn't know. The anime doesn't really discuss it. --Melissia 20:52, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "Food and Sanzo"
Is there any actual evidence as to that certain episode being added to "show that Goku's life revolves around more than food and Sanzo"? Did a director say this or is it mere conjecture? Denimcat 19:46, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Reload and Gunlock seperate entries?
Perhaps someone might want to start an entry for the second and third series of this anime, and link it to the main article. I did an extensive edit and rewrite for this entry, and have noticed that someone keeps inserting information about Hazel Grosse and Gato in particular. I can only assume this is because he/she is a Gunlock fan with a particular interest in these characters.
However, I feel this information is irrelevant to this article, as the idea is to describe the original series only. There are dozens of characters in this series, from Gensomaden to Gunlock, (and the movie) and there simply isn't room to describe them all in one entry, nor is it fair to include information on someone's personal favorites just because they can or want to. This is not a fan forum and an encyclopedia entry is not the place for trivia, bias or unnecessary information.
We're all passionate about anime, obviously, which is why we're bothering to edit these entries. I'm a passionate fan of Saiyuki, and wanted the entry to have some polish, clarity and professionalism in it's content and presentation. Yet Hazel and Gato are from *Gunlock,* a seperate series, and not relevant here.
If you feel passionately about Reload or Gunlock, or the Hazel Arc in general, then write up a seperate entry and give it the attention it deserves, rather than a brief and ambigous mention in the middle of this article.
