Hey you, who has read the final novel of Saiunkoku Monogatari, and who is in Japan (and therefore the best person I know to ask about the status of the manga) .... what is happening with the manga? Are they still coming out with more volumes? How many are out in Japan already? (hehe ... I hope you don't mind me using you as my walking reference for Saiunkoku Monogatari...)

Hello! Sorry for the late reply - I haven't been around the site for a while :S
For the manga, the latest volume out is volume 9, and I think they are still coming out. I don't know when the next release date is however.
And as for the novels, after the main series ended, a new hardback book based on the stories after Ryuuki's ascend to the throne came out - this book dealt mainly with the history and after story of Yuushun, Anju, Ouki, Ryuuki, and Shuurei. And about a month ago, a fanbook also came out, including a drama CD, which was the last ever drama CD for Saiunkoku. Very sad

Hey, no worries! there's REAL life outside of dA, I know!
Thanks for the info ... a group member asked for some info and I don't have the answer ... so now I can go inform her! I think group members would be interested in knowing too ... can I disseminate this info to the group? as hearsay, if you prefer ...
Hey, second contest just commenced ... deadline 20 March 2013 ... hope you can participate.

Disseminate away! If I ever get the time, I'd like to write a rough overview of the last book for anyone interested in knowing what happens!

Yesssh! Write! Please do write! Everyone will love you for it! hmmmm ... in fact, you can even blog it in the group, if you so prefer! I think I have set it up that any member can write a blog in the group ...

Welcome to
The group's gallery is experiencing some technical problems at the moment, and we are still waiting for dA Helpdesk to sort things out. My apologies. Once things are resolved, I will invite your deviations again, if that's ok with you?

ElspethElf In reply to pergamjee [2012-01-14 04:04:52 +0000 UTC]
Of course! I hope they get fixed soon (I didn't think I actually submitted an art >_< sorry!).
I'm so happy to find fellow Saiunkoku lovers! Reading the final novel in the series right now

ahhh, no no, it was I who sent you invitation to submit some of your deviations to the group!
But they all expired after a week or two ...
... so, I was guessing you either hardly come into dA, or you didn't want to join the group!
I was happy, and relieved, to see your name in the new members list.
Yes, indeed! Saiunkoku is such a small fandom, I'm always happy to meet another one. I haven't read the final novel, but I understand there are some shocks there ... don't worry, I'm not springing spoilers on you!

Aaah, I see. I must have not seen the invites then - up until now I used to hardly visit dA
No major shocks so far! We'll see how it goes
I wish they'd animate the other books too.

beautiful work, im angina from obernewtyn.net. Only thing i would advise is that you need to spend more time on your work making sure the light and shadows are all refined, i find that they have an unfinished feel to some of them. other than that amazing knowledge of anatomy and facial structure
