I have Saiyuki vol 9 in my sweaty little paws. I think it's my favourite. Watch me do a happy little dance. *does happy dance*

Yay!

(I don't know if I've read that one...eek, I am remiss in my bookstore-reading!)

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Quick, read it! You must. It has half-naked Sanzo wrestling!

[lisa-bee.livejournal.com]

...half-naked Sanzo wrestling? Wha?

Okay. I must find this, soon.

[mistressrenet.livejournal.com]

Goku! Saves the day! With mah-jong!

[marith.livejournal.com]

Yes! Smart Goku! I can't wait for coffee_and_ink's visual analysis of this one.

[kintail.livejournal.com]

Ooo so lucky! And hooray for mah-jongg!

[ninhursag.livejournal.com]

It's out? Hooray! Now I need to track down a copy.

[daegaer.livejournal.com]

Oooh! Yay!

[scribblemoose]

Ohhh... I know United Publications are sending me something tomorrow but it could be Saiyuki, or Descendents of Darkness, or Whistle...

*hopes very hard for Saiyuki*

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Mmmmmguh. Vol 9 is fabulously gay. I hope you get it tomorrow.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

And manipulates them all beautifully! Hurray!

[aqua-eyes.livejournal.com]

*_* I just got it today and read it on the bus home.

So fantastic. :pets them all regardless of limbs lost inthe process:

Saiyuki 8 was only stocked the week before as well!

[cicer.livejournal.com]

*squeals* It's out?! *runs to barnesandnoble.com*

[akisawana.livejournal.com]

I only have it bootleg...I wants it now, precious, that I do!

KAMISAMAKAMISAMA~

Ahem. < 3

Bunnybear! Eeeeeevil little Frankentoy. I loves it.

[faemovana.livejournal.com]

Is it anything like the chibi-Gojyo dance? :P

Hakkkaaai~~

*waits impatiently for Vols 1-3 to arrive at my bookshop*

*twitches*

*Reads Vol 2 of Samurai Deeper while waiting*

[mistressrenet.livejournal.com]

That was, like, Hakkai-level brilliance. It's the big reason I roll my eyes at all the "Goku's so immature" people. Bitch, please. Simple does not mean stupid, kthks.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Exactly. And all the stuff in vol 8 about him knowing things were wrong without Gojyo. He works on instinct more than thought, usually, but he's pretty much always right.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Me too! The art in the first chapter is amazing.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

*licks vol 9*

XD

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Tokyopop must've decided to bump up the printing schedule or something- it's out at least two weeks before the date on thier website. Hurray, I say.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

*continues doing happy dance*

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

It's *exactly* like that. How did you guess? *g*

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Vol 9 is just amazing, and with lots of gratuitous semi-nudity. I'm so looking forward to you reading it. I hope you like it. *bounces*

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

I love it what he does in vol 9.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

*pets Bunnybear*

[shirochan.livejournal.com]

the thing he did with Sanzo? or something else? *tries to search brain for the events that took place in vol 9*

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. I meant when he stands up and protects him from Kamisama. It's just amazing.

[shirochan.livejournal.com]

is that the scene where Sanzo shoots Kamisama with Hakkai in between them? I loved that scene so much T_T scared me half to death too at first >_>

[thawrecka]

I had to rush home to read it and it is so fantastic. So much cool.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

It feels like such a bonus to get it so soon, especially as there was that two month wait for vol 8.

Yay! It's such a good one too.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

*drools over your icon*

Yay - early printing!

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Heee!

The bit at the end with Ni is actually very sad to me now, because he doesnt want to hear that Kamisama loves him. I don't know if Ni is so evil to Kami sama, or just really seriously committed to 'holding nothing'.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Yes, you need to get it-- it's so good! XD

[aqua-eyes.livejournal.com]

:nodnodnods: Oh yeah. *_* Hope Reloaded doesn't take too long.... :crosses fingers:

Fantastic! Goku! Who would have known! Lol. He's growing up... XD!

:trawls through icons:

:goes off to find a Saiyuki one: XD;

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

There's so much good stuff in it and not a single scene that feels like a filler. And I just love where the plot goes with Ni Jianyi, even though I knew already. It makes a difference to read a good translation.

[cicer.livejournal.com]

I have ordered it! Mwahahaha! *sits outside to wait for UPS*

[faemovana.livejournal.com]

hee I don't know...it just seemed the dance to fit you. *g*

[thawrecka]

I hadn't actually read any scans of it before so I was completely unspoiled - and that plot point just blew me away.

And Goku! With his general fabulousness!

[akisawana.livejournal.com]

I have it now, it *is* so good!!

[mistressrenet.livejournal.com]

Everyone who draws parallels between him and Koumyou is, I think, dead on.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Yes! Ah, it's a wonderful moment when you realise that it's Ni.

Goku is growing up-- he manipulates them all wonderfully.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

*is hit with the clue stick*

Goku and Koumyou-- ohhh. They both tell Sanzo to be strong, don't they?

[mistressrenet.livejournal.com]

telophase I think cemented it for me, talking about that scene with Hakkai's lifeline. I could totally see Koumyou doing that.
