Sainunkoku Monogatari is suspended

July 27th, 2009 by Author

The suspension of Saiunkoku is exactly the same thing that happened to 12K. The opening segment was great, but as the show plateaued, I searched for an escape.

Don’s foresight was spot on:

I don’t think that there is likely to be any real in-depth consideration of the challenges of governing an empire. … Instead, I expect that the remaining 36 episodes will focus more on court intrigues, treachery, assassination attempts, bromides and whether Ryuuki really does prefer guys.

Ana-sempai says that, based on fanfics at least, they aren’t yet married a few novels down the road. Meh, been there with Ranma, not interested.
