This looks like a really cool action shounen. Seems generic and nothing too out of the ordinary but it's got cool dudes doing cool things and I daresay am a sucker for that. Time for me to watch the other two series before this

*Josei. And it's far from generic. Also I would rather recommend reading the manga instead, as they butchered the story in the previous adaptations(except for some OVAs).

Forgive me for my error. Since it was Pierrot that animated the previous works I'll take your recommendation and read the manga so I can see for myself (besides, can't go wrong favoring the source material lol)

No you weren't entirely wrong, the franchise started off as shounen as well since it was serialized in Gfantasy, which is a unisex magazine. That's great to hear, have fun reading it.

Saiyuki will always have a special place in my heart as the first anime to really get me into anime outside all the big popular shows in the early 2000s. I think it is also the first manga series I ever read. I know it has its faults, but I just love it so much. But being the pessimistic person I am, I wish they had started at the beginning of the series instead of starting at the authors current series that only has 2 volumes release. There are 23 volumes (Saiyuki Gaiden, Saiyuki, & Saiyuki Reload) that take place before Saiyuki Reload Blast and they didn't have the best anime adaptions. Just do the HxH thing and animate it from the start.

Wow this show has so many entries, OVA, TV re-adaptation, TV sequel, OVA sequel, OVA prequel, Movie etc. If I can find a torrent I will watch it from the beginning, so I probably won't see this until after it has finished airing. .

That was unexpected. A new Saiyuki anime.
In related news, i wonder if the author will finally finish the story since the Saiyuki gang has been travelling West for a "very" long time.

I"m so, so, excited!!
I was recently watching the original anime from 2000 and the new trailer's animation, character designs and backgrounds are like night and day compared to the old one.
And just maybe...this might cause the manga license to get rescued from Tokyopop's corpse and we can finally get the 10th volume of Reload in print...

All that matters is that the original VA return because none of them will sound the same without their voices. I breathe a sigh of relief and dance the dance of victory.

Pierrot's adaptation was not bad. That is why this new production decided not to do it from the beginning.

HxH of 1999 is better than the one of 2011
