Translation of the Saiyuki timelime from the Saiyuubito book. (Gojyo's parents commited suicide for love? Really? Wow! AS IF HE WEREN'T TRAUMATIZED ENOUGH ALREADY!)

I don't think 'traumatized enough' is in Minekura's vocabulary. fortunately neither is 'hot enough'

Holy shit, yes. Gonou is abandoned by his mother? oh, man, so much is explained.

So both Hakkai/Gonou and Kanan were jeeenyuses to be at college at fifteen! Oh, man, I pity their roommates.

I'm still curious about Kougaiji, Lirin, and Yaone's ages.

No, it makes him less traumatized! Because you see now it's not his real mother who was abusing him (also his real mother loved his real father VERY MUCH).

We always knew it wasn't his real mommy, though. Just, you know, the only mommy he ever knew or remembered. GREAT JOB, GOJYO'S PARENTS.

Man, what I wouldn't give for a complete translation of all of Saiyuubito. So much of the elements missing from the manga could be explained. Plus it would be a godsend for getting the details in "Chasing the Sun" right instead of me just conjecturing about them on my own.
