If you think Saiyuki is the best anime you've ever seen, than you need to watch other animes beside Saiyuki.
Paranoia Agent? Fighting Spirit? Samurai X OAV?

Ya I have the entire 1st and 2nd season of Saiyuki and am starting the 3rd. I think it is a pretty good series, but it deffinately isn't the "best" out there.
Like darkhunter said, try to watch some other animes, you might be suprised that there is a lot of good anime out there besides Saiyuki.

Saiyuki's definately not the best (regardless of whatever crazy publication ranked it pretty high in the all-time best series category), but it's not the worst, either.
And I'm not talking about Reloaded, or Gunlock, I'm talking about the original Gensomaden series when animation ethics still applied. I can barely stand to watch the follow up series because the animation is so terrible.
Saiuki is one of my favorite anime's, mostly because of the refreshing characters who don't pull any punches and because it was the first series I ever watched in completion and ran out and bought on DVD. The manga is very nice, as well, although in the beginning it's not as lovely as it eventually becomes. I highly recommend Saiyuki Gaiden for anyone familiar with the storyline of the anime series and wanting a taste of M.K.'s wonderfully artistic hand.
