Yeah, it looks like there's only going to be 45 eps for a while. You should definitely watch them though, 'cause 45 will probably be the end of the current arc (so you won't be left hanging). :D

Well, if the current topic is to be believed (although it's been known to fluctuate randomly), tomorrow's release day.

I know this might be a stupid question...but i'm just too curios....

When they showed Taiki back in Hourai he was around 14-15....so when he comes back to the 12 kingdoms he should be around 17-18(?).
Will he apear as a older looking Taiki or will he be the 10 year old we seen bevor.
I think Enki mention'ed when a kirin matured he won't change his aperance anymore,but was Taiki already matured when he choose his king? :?:

The only reason why Enki was able to find Taiki in the first place was because he sensed a kirin. After Taiki disappeared the second time Enki mentioned that he couldn't sense a kirin in Hourai. This is probably related to why Taiki is aging, even though he was a matured kirin. Of course, this is not an explantion. . . :(

*spoilers*
*i was spoiled by a certain "somebody" with the novels ^^*

The fact that enki didn't sense Taiki during the second time in hourai is because Taikis horn was cut off T_T. which you notice in the anime when he returned to japan naked he also had blood on his forehead and lost of memory. ( watch ep 15 ) :P.


However i don't think he ever returned to the 12 kingdoms yet whoever said that spoiler prob fabricated it. But yes indeed Gyousou also has disappeared.....

*cough cough* Actually, Taiki did manage to make it back in the latter part of the second Tasogare no Kishi, Akatsuki no Sora novel. What I'm not sure about is what happened to Sanshi.

Sure do - and a sense of humor. Among other things, that was what made them unique over beasts.

humor is what they need once they become Shirei and serving a Kirin :twisted:
