Description

Shurei Hong, destitute but of noble birth, has always dreamed of working as a civil servant in the imperial court of Saiunkoku, but women are barred from holding office. The emperor Ryuki, however, refuses to take command, leaving everything to his advisors. Shurei is asked to become a consort to the emperor to persuade the ne’er-do-well ruler to govern.Shurei enters the palace as Ryuki’s consort, but he has yet to seek her out. It is rumored that men, not women, share the emperor’s bedchamber. Shurei must think of a way to stop the emperor from shirking his responsibilities, but she has to find him first. (From Viz) 3c605r

Lost interest after a few volumes

First two volumes were interesting, then the story started dragging and became boring. I read 5 volumes, after that I couldn't convince myself to keep reading, as I felt bored.

only 9 volumes?!? and it's complete already?!?
I hope they finish until the last volume of novel!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!
So, we could have a proper ending at least on manga. If they don't adopt the rest of novel into anime.

Shuurei did end up with emperor. But only in the novel. Since the manga ended abruptly in Shuurei ing barely for government position exam. While the anime in s2...I can't recall but it's still incomplete too.

I'll honestly collect all of the volumes a.k.a. purchase them officially (online), IF it will cover the rest of the novel until the "real ending" or even at least a "better alternate ending."

i think it has good art and the plot's interesting at its start, but i don't like the reverse harem (i think it's irrelevant) and somehow there're too many ing characters that i can't all of the names.
to sum up, i like the way the author build the background and the mangaka's art work, but i don't like the plot

can't get enough of this manga and anime. love how some of the characters have 'hidden' personalities. and I agree, the character and plot twist build ups are awesome!

i really hope they make a season 3 for the anime and make the other light novels part of the manga

My opinion

I've watched the anime, and the ending of THAT series dissapointed me.

You'd think that Shuurei would accept his feelings and they'd end up together, but it just drags you on. There was more romance between her and that bad guy, but she like doesn't show much love to the emperor. >: ( poor guy.

I am a lil hesitant on reading the manga, cause i was pissed off about the ending of the anime. I know they are usually different, but still.

awww the characters are all so cute. they all have their own presonalities that make them special and unique. especially the majesty. hes adorable so cute. I havent seen the anime but i think the manga is not as bad as the people say it is. I also think its best to read the manga then watch the anime always best to do that.

Loved the Anime

It was one of the best things I've ever watched/read, and I'm not saying this lightly. Sigh....there are so many good things about the story, especially all the political intrigue and ongoings, which I love. All the characters are likable, and each have their own distinct personality. There aren't many extremes personality wise. My current favorite characters are Shi Seiran, Yougetsu (love this guy), Ensei, and Ran Shuuei along with Kou Shouka and (minor character) Kijin Kou, the treasury person. I would have liked to call Shuurei one of my favorites as she is the main character, but I felt that she was too naive. Her personality was real enough, but I guess I just like the extremes anyways. ^.^'

Personally I like Seiran better than Ryuuki. Ryuuki is just too childish. Sure he might play on some maternal (and I'm assuming that most of the people who read this are female) feelings, but it gets irritating sometimes. Seiran is much more mature and (most of the time) reserved.

This is most interesting josei I've read/watched so far. Interconnecting plots, intriguing backstories, along with an fascinating universe make it a definite read/watch. But those that are just hung up on action stories wouldn't like this genre. Don't read it if you don't like politics (and I use that term loosely).

EDIT:: Never mind, my favorite character has become Sakujun. Curse you episode 35!!!!!

I agree, it rocks, shame that the manga is so far behind the anime, but it actually is much truer to the novel than the anime is. The novel is still ongoing and is past the anime now (by a couple of volumes). I like the art, the backgrounds are so detailed.

I'm very happy that a lot of people really like Saiunkoku Monogatari. It's such an interesting story and it's not like the others.It's really a josei, Fave_chan? I thought that it was also shoujo. So sad. Until now, it still isn't updated. I hope that they will continue the anime. Well, my favorite character would be Seiran, because he's so ionate, don't you think so? Especially at the time when he slammed his fists after getting really pissed off with Sa Sakujun. Anyways, you're all really cool!
