Talk:Guin Saga

longest continuing single-writer's work in the world
how can that be "Nabil Farouk" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nabil_Farouk with 157 for each title he have "Ragol_Al_Mostaheel" and "Malaf_Al_Mostakbal" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ragol_Al_Mostaheel http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaf_Al_Mostakbal —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.22.23.62 (talk) 12:30, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Don't you think this article should mention the change of style over the series? Didn't it go from sci-fi adventure to gay slash? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.21.219.60 (talk) 07:40, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


 * The plot section mentions the change: "Later volumes introduce elements of the yaoi genre." Extremepro (talk) 08:18, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * There is nothing in the link sited to indicate the claim of slash. I've read elsewhere that a single character develops an interest in the same sex( a woman), but that is not yaoi, and neither is it a change of genre. I'm removing the comment because it appears to be untrue, at the very least it is not supported by a reliable source.58.110.139.108 (talk) 13:56, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
 * EDIT: I missed it sorry. I'm still sceptical of the truth of that, as many of the websites have claimed the main character, Guin, is/becomes gay, which is untrue. 58.110.139.108 (talk) 14:06, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

Other articles to translate
In addition to the main Guin Saga article, other articles that could be partially translated to supplement this one include:
 * Leopard Head Mask (Book 1)
 * List of Guin Saga characters
 * The Seven Magi (the side-story that was adapted into the manga - was also adapted into a musical)
 * Pirates of the Magnolia (another side-story, adapted into a musical)
 * Trial of the Leopard Headed King (some kind of anniversary special book)

Putting them here for handy reference. --Malkinann (talk) 11:18, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

More books to come (even after author death)
From Yomiuri Shimbun website. The author finished book 129 and was working on book 130 when died. The publisher will release book till vol 129. --KrebMarkt 17:05, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Characters section is lacking
Who is Shido (Sid) tailed daemon, which prays to Yandalzok (Yandaruzoggu) before he dies? 95.27.116.120 (talk) 19:14, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Too true, the character list is incomplete. How about adding in any other major or secondary characters you're aware of?  It would help the article a lot, and if you're not sure on how to format things, don't worry about it, as others can help with the formatting.  Please be bold and share what you know about Guin Saga with everyone. :) --Malkinann (talk) 04:37, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
