Why did no one tell me how good this show was? Probably had the most lackluster ending I've ever seen, but god damn the characters were refreshing.
Dropped it because the characters were too weird
>>140740586
weird how so? as in they make stupid decisions and don't always develop in a positive way?
The only part I didn't like was how every character from the human world turned out to be a shit and the only good one turned out to have been from that world all along.
Or at least that's what I remember from seeing it years ago.
>when yuko found out youko was the queen
>when yuko exiled and held hostage in barren wasteland

The two human world characters were anime only stuff.
The guy doesn't exist in the novels since the MC goes to all-girls school. And the book girl doesn't even go to the twelve kingdoms.
That means that in the novels all that thieving and morally questionable shit is done by MC herself whos sanity points are dropping with alarming rate.
also
>you will never hug Rakushun.
>>140740663
youko and yuko were both shit, but they grew out of it. asano was the only truly shit one, literally abandoning everyone he comes across and killing innocent people. the point wasn't that all kaikyaku are bad, because we meet suzu later
>Incomplete series
Don't remind me. I'm still buttblasted they never animated the other novels and that we'll never get a proper remake.
>>140740663
That's because only our dear empress exists in the books.
>>140740860
what happens chronologically after the anime? after the series ended with a god damn flashback to one of king en's buddies?
>>140740546
She saved the show.

I wished I could finish this story. I love chinese theme and also liked the music. Are all the books translated?
>>140741101
Yes but there is still no point to it.
Author went into an infinite hiatus and isn't going to finish the story properly.
>>140740663
You would be too if you're transported to Chinese Narnia where you don't speak the language and everyone treat you like shit.
>>140741101
>Are all the books translated?
Fuck no they aren't. jewkopop got the licenese, went to 4 volumes, and stopped.
Best girls.

OH MAI GAWD.
You will never own your own spider dog creature that plans to eat your body after you die.
>>140741101
author got lazy for many years and just didnt complete it. then i google her a couple months ago and found out she started on other projects. the bitch.
>>140741144
>Chinese Narnia
I never thought of it that way until now.
I think it would be worse for normies though, at least I have the cleverness and will power to pretend to be a deaf-mute or something.

>Why did no one tell me how good this show was?
Plenty of people sung this show's praises over the years, anon. You were just too busy jerking off to Naruto-porn.
>>140741283
>>140740546
Because the novels will never have an ending.
Welcome to hell anon, we make good company
>>140740546
read the novel, the anime jump the plots

I think it was Gyousou and Taiki?
It's a lot, but the author apparently enjoys blueballing her audience.
But spoilers from the top of my head
>Taiki gets focus and we get to meet the king of Ren and Renki. Gyousou and Taiki improve their relationship.
>Coup in Tai with both Gyousou and Taiki gone missing. I believe this was talked about in the anime.
>Risai is found with an arm missing. She talks about the coup. Youko agrees to help them.
>Taiki is found in the human world (also covered in the anime). Youko makes a search&rescue party with the other emperors to bring back Taiki to the 12K world.
>Taiki is returned safely and talks about how he was attacked by one of the generals(?) from Tai and managed to flee to the human world where he lost his memory. He also grew up and is in highschool.
>Also his guardian spirits/animals where going bonkers and attacking/killing people who got too close to Taiki in order to "protect" him.
> This particular novel ends with Risai and Taiki going back to Tai to search for Gyousou, who managed to send his bloody belt to some king or kingdom (can't remember who) and is hinted to be alive.
Sadly the series remained incomplete because they where waiting for more material to come out.

the guy human world character was pretty based
too bad he got a shit end
>>140740801
>human characters didn't exist

Isn't this supposed to get a new novel this year?
Hopefully that one dude is still interested in translating it.
Man, I totally forgot that I had actual copies of these at home.
Time to read.
