Discuss about anything related to the Twelve Kingdoms, also known as 十二国記, Juuni Kokki or Jūni Kokuki. Talk about the novels, the anime, the writer Fuyumi Ono or illustrator Akihiro Yamada, but beware for spoilers!
omg...those are the best fanart pieces I've ever seen! I notice that the artist's guys tend to look more like the anime than the women...but who cares! Thanks for sharing!

anybody know what happened to http://xenosaga.cool.ne.jp/ ? The artwork doesn't seem to be posted any more And I can't read what s/he says in japanese either.. I'm wishing I saved those pics to my hard drive earlier
Yes I translated what they put on their weblog, they're taking a break either they don't have the money to keep the pictures up or they haven't got time or something but they should be back by spring, I do believe.
Thanks for all those great links!
Now the ones I found. Not my favourite fanart, but some of the images are cute (Enki, for example ^_^). Just have a look on them:
And here there is some beautiful artwork plus some comic strips which are in Japanese, so I don't know if they're funny, but some of you may understand them: http://www.geocities.jp/futaribiwako/12top.html
Did anyone actually save any of those pictures from Xenosaga because it looks like the site isn't coming back up and I'd really like to save some of them to disk like Hazel, please please put them up or send them somehow!!!
yukina_raven from sharp_pastels makes some rather lovely Twelve Kingdoms icons on her livejournal blog. I recently discovered it myself, so you may already know the site, but I thought it was worth a mention, just in case. Most recent post: yesterday, which mean it gets updated regularly, so keep an eye on it.
