It had a lot to due with it was the turn of the era for animation. There are like 7 other anime for saiyuki at this point now as well as movies and all of them have amazing animation. Its to bad the first series suffered this but animation wasn't up to snuff at that point. Especially since this was one of Perriots earlier projects.
@@derekbates4316 I think you need to see Saiyuki again, if that's crazy for you, then we can't talk about a series full of Power ups to destroy universes and solar systems, cyclopean screams that seem to be escaping him to go to the bathroom, Majin Buu who is a meme and etc. So nah, you got it mixed up with Z
@@fe6587 If you think a show about a bunch of guys road tripping through a demon infested hell scape to kill a man named God isn't crazy, then you and I have very different definitions of the word.
Goku is so cool without his limiter, but I still like the normal Goku and I hope he remember his past, I wonder what he's reaction will be when he learned what happened to his friends before...interesting.
"- Oh, shit! - I'll say..." I hate how they showed this on anime, it seems so shallow, but... I admit that few dialogues are just priceless. And everybody loves Goku's true form.
Son Gokou, Kid Buu, & Inuyasha in one person 1.gokou's name 2. kid buu's insane fighting style 3. Inuyasha's demon transformation that can't distinguish from friend or foe
Yeah why even his name is Goku?? He is not a monkey or some sort.. . Isn't Son Goku the Monkey King?? Like that dude on God of Highschool But He has elf ears instead.. . Am I missing something??
I remember finding this clip, being completely confused on why his name was Goku, and they even called him a monkey.... like a popular character we all know. Goku from the Dragon Ball series. But, now I understand why. Both characters are based off a character "Sun Wukong" which in Japanese, is translated as "Son Goku". Based from the series "Journey to The West" about a monkey named Sun Wukong who has to guide a monk to the west while keeping him protected. Along with him is a shape-shifting Pig named Pigsty, and a sand demon named Sandy. That's where Dragon Ball got Goku, Bulma, Oolong, and Yamcha from. Goku's Power Pole and Flying Nimbus came from that tale as well. There are several things out there inspired from the tale. There's more to what I said. But it's cool to see how certain shows grew popular based from the tale.
@Espeon804 Okay, I know this comment is 5 years old (& probably know some of this stuff now), but I still wanted to update some things! 1) Pigsy & Sandy's ACTUAL Names are Zhu Bajie/Wuneng & Sha Wujing, which in Japanese is Cho Hakkai/Gonō & Sa Gojō for both! 2) Zhu Bajie wasn't just a shapeshifter, he was a Giant Black Yao Pig with a Nine-Toothed, Spike-Rake & Sha Wujing was less a "Demon", and more a Sand Yaksa or Rakshasa! 3) Dragon Ball Son Gokū's Power Pole is actually called "Nyoi Bo" or "Nyoi Kinsō Bo", which is Japanese for "Ruyi Bang" or "Ruyi Jingu Bang", Sun Wukong's 8.5 Ton, Black-Iron Rod with 2 Gold-Rings at Each End!
SQUUEEE!!!! I just adore Goku!!! He's so sweet, kind and just to damn adorable! Then you have his true form which is pure Beast! And Greg's dub is so great, I'm a huge Grey Ayers fangirl! :D Saiyuki is my most favorite anime! ^,^ (GS Goku PWNS DB/DBZ/DBGT Goku! >:D)
@@Sly9192 Pfft right hahaha it’s a lil bummer Hakkai is not portrayed as a pig, but he’s a hottie here and we got a lil convenient dragon for a ride-all I’m saying is, I’m not mad. First DB is a bit acceptable as an adaptation of the novel but we all know it went far from that. Saiyuki is still better to be called as an adaptation of Journey to the West so farrrrr when it comes to anime and manga (that I know of)
@@robymessina1998 Just started watching. Last night when you said another Saiyuki was out. Honestly it feels like they are just doing the Hazel arc over. Still worth watching though.
One those good ol anime moments that compared to recent anime is pretty cheesy but at the time holy fuck this scene was great years ago when you bought anime 4 episodes at a a time lol
They did:) Saiyuki Gaiden is three OVA episodes that show goku's past along with random episodes of his past in gensomaden, which shows that happy moments. Gaiden, not so much. Then there is Saiyuki Burial, which focues somewhat on there past, but it's kind of tied into there meeting.
this is something ive thought of doing. punching someone hard enough to break their guard down as if their block is nothing but a giant weak spot. punch and break through their god damn arms and make them completely defenseless
Shinoa Yuki I'd argue you haven't seen Digimon if you watch the US version. They cut out all the deep drama the children were going through. Japanese version is the only way to watch it for me.
MrNarkthefirst I think you might just be put off by old anime dubs. Now Funimation have dubbing down to an art form and do an even better job than the originals.
this series was aired with a different name on the channel ANIMAX in 2006 and 2007s, the name was NOT SAIYUKI BUT CALLED SOMETHING else........plz can anyone tell me the different names this series may have aired around the world with
oh shit I feel extremely old... also the animation was so bad...but the manga is legendary and also I'm rereading it as an adult and that thing was lowkey shounen-ai lol
@9dragonkings actually the staff of the dragon king was given to the dragons by God, and the reason why Wukong is so powerful and different from other monkeys it's because God the Creator made him differently, God made him from stone, and like i said before Neza and them are praised by human like he's a king or God but he's actually not, he's one of the fallen angels that followed the devil..
@9dragonkings and the dude that sat at the throne that kept on sending warriors to go fight wukong is actually the devil and the sent warrior are the fallen angels
i’ve watched this saiyuki(sp?) but I haven’t watched it in awhile. Can somebody please point out which episode of which one of the seasons this is? I want to rewatch it.
@9dragonkings that's why when Wukong was born, the devil demanded his angels to see whats creating so much noise, the fallen angel told the devil that it was a rock monkey, created by God
@9dragonkings what ppl so called mid heaven when he created havoc wasn't actually the real heaven, and the what so called gods that kept on bothering him so he got mad and fought them were actually the fallen angels... the place where he went and ate the eternal life peaches was actually from the fallen angels, when God the Creator banished the devil and his fallen angels he threw them beyond the clouds and between the clouds became the place where they lived..
I really wish characters wouldn't state the obvious ... "he banished the fiend I summoned" ... really? So many animes would be 10 times better if they would stop doing this.
Saiyuki, Saiyuki Reload, Saiyuki Reload Blast. Most skip Saiyuki Reload Gunlock anime cuz it’s kinda non canon. Unfortunately most of the content from Saiyuki Reload manga was never animated.

@@gintokisan5171 no. Son Goku is inspired by sun wukong and i believe him is the first anime reincarnation of sun wukong. Basically DBZ goku

1) Pigsy & Sandy's ACTUAL Names are Zhu Bajie/Wuneng & Sha Wujing, which in Japanese is Cho Hakkai/Gonō & Sa Gojō for both!
2) Zhu Bajie wasn't just a shapeshifter, he was a Giant Black Yao Pig with a Nine-Toothed, Spike-Rake & Sha Wujing was less a "Demon", and more a Sand Yaksa or Rakshasa!
3) Dragon Ball Son Gokū's Power Pole is actually called "Nyoi Bo" or "Nyoi Kinsō Bo", which is Japanese for "Ruyi Bang" or "Ruyi Jingu Bang", Sun Wukong's 8.5 Ton, Black-Iron Rod with 2 Gold-Rings at Each End!

Long-Haired Goku looked pretty cool until he started laughing. :O
Such a good episode
What episode is this?
I don’t know that I could rewatch this anymore
why!! I don't understand people that watch anime dubbed...
Because once in every blue moon you get a really good one. Yu Yu Hakusho was much better in English than its Japanese counterpart.
Alphasnowbordergirl that is absolutely true :>
I like Digimon in english dub better than the japan dub
Shinoa Yuki I'd argue you haven't seen Digimon if you watch the US version. They cut out all the deep drama the children were going through. Japanese version is the only way to watch it for me.
