I am actually kind of disappointed that the second series of Saiunkoku Monogatari didn’t conclude with what happens with Shuurei and Ryuuki. I know it couldn’t be helped since the novel wasn’t completed yet but I would have preferred it if the author finished Shuurei’s and Ryuuki’s story arc first and made them secondary characters like how it was done in the Twelve Kingdoms. It just made me feel like the whole second series was quite pointless especially with the slightly anti-climatic ending. Still, the series on its own is worth watching because of the character development and intricate storyline. Just didn’t quite get the focus on Shuurei and Ryuuki I was hoping for after watching the first series.

I think most of us fell in love with the series bcoz of the Ryuuki-Shuurei pairing. So, I do not think that the producers/writers et al would want to risk the wrath of the SaiMono fan legion if Ryuuki & Shuurei do not get together at the end of all these. To answer Kena on what Ryuuki whispered to Shuurei at the end of season 2 series, I believe we were not supposed to know what was actually said; but through some other blogs, there was one good guess that it is Ryuuki’s favourite word to Shuurie which is…”forever” ; )

Machi: I hadn’t thought of it that way before but now that you mention it, I see exactly what you mean. Who knows, maybe we’ll have 108 named characters by the end, if we don’t already.

As I watch Saiunkoku Monogatari I just can’t help but think that they’re really going after the old Chinese epic novels format. Wherein it really is injected with tons of characters and constantly riddled with issues popping up. Only real difference is Saiunkoku takes its time to develop most of its characters when possible.
