So, I started by comparing Saiyuki to the Wizard of Oz in this thread over here, and it was a good joke. Also, knowing Minekura-sensei, not entirely impossible. I can totally see her letting the rest of the ikkou make their reappearance that way. Not necessarily smushing Ukoku, no, but definitely driving off a cliff and SURPRISE! There's a Sanzo! :D Or something.
But now... now the Saiyuki/Wizard of Oz thing is IN MY HEAD! It won't leave! I mean, Hakkai is totally searching for a heart, and if Gojyo only had a brain, he'd be set... Unfortunately, since Sanzo is, naturally, Dorothy ('oh, Auntie Koumyou! I had the most awful dream! And you were in it, and you.. and you...'), that leaves Goku as the Cowardly Lion. Which doesn't really work, but meh. No crossing like this comes out exact, so I shall call it good.
...Of course, you realize this means the Kou-tachi are flying monkeys. Just sayin'.

And now the anthology is going to make me late to work. -_-;no subject

Date: 2008-03-31 11:55 pm (UTC)*snickers* I have no idea what was going on in the Saiyuki doujinshi, either. But it was very cute in a "what the fuck is this shit?" sort of way.
The chibi theme was not intentional, it just sort of happened. In fact, I didn't even think of it until you said something.
Being late for work is bad! I actually have no idea whether there's anything pretty in that doujinshi - I didn't look at it before I sent it to you- but there are a couple of good artists represented, and I don't see how 100+ pages of uke Kanda could be bad.
