FUSHIGI YUUGI CHARACTER GUIDE!

Sorry if it takes awhile to put everyone's stats. I just got the First Art book of FY and I can read in Hirigana and Katakana..... but almost alot of the writting is in Kanji so I have a hard time reading it.

KonanKoku ~Suzaku, The red Pheonix~

Suzaku No Miko To Suzaku no Shichi-sei desu!

Yuuki Miaka desu!

Birth date:12, Go-gatsu (may 12 '77)

Age: 15

Place: Tokyo

Heitht: 158cm

Weight: 48kg

Miaka is a regular Junior High student Getting ready for the Jonan entrance exams. Her strengths are her ability to try to understand and comprimise with people, Her purity, and her ability to scarf down all the food that is placed in front of her. Although sometimes she might seem naive, Miaka has the ability to set aside her fears and be brave..... although she seems to draw her strengths from other people (namely her seishi's) All her life it seems like Miaka's always been watched over.

Her interests are eating, trying to pass the Jonan exams (while eating) and TAMAHOME. (I think she'd eat him to if she didn't love him so much.)

Her weakness is her being naive, and ofcourse her Hunger!!!!

Oh yeah Miaka and Tamahome both get their wish and are reunited in her world, and surprise!!! He's still wearing the ring that they gave each other when they preformed a wedding ceremony by themselves! Also Miaka and Yui flunked the Jonan High School entrance exams, but they passes the Yotsubudai exams.

Tamahome desu!!!

Real name: Sou Kishuku

Birth date:28, Roku-gatsu(June 28)

Age: 17

Birth place: Hakkou village, Konan Country

Height: 180cm

Tamahome is Suzaku's main protector. His character appears on his Forehead. (charachter of the OGRE). At first Tamahome seems like a man who's only concerned with money. (well in a way he is) However he does have a good reason. Tamahome is always talking about money because of the fact that he has 2 younger brothers and 2 younger sisters. He has to provide for them because his father is ill.

Ever since Tamahome was young, he only lived for his family. But that all changed when he met Miaka. His love for her knows no limits and he continues to risk everything for her. (hey don't we all wish we had a guy like that?)

Tamahome's strength is his ability and knowledge of all the Martial arts, and His love for miaka, and let's not forget his love for making money.

In the final battle with Nakago, Tamahome.... well he died, Nakago (kawaii kojin) kicked his butt!!! (but that's just because Tama-chan was a mere mortal also Tamahome just found out that he was "created" that that he was "a character in the book" so you know that had to affect him. In the end, with the help of all his seishi friends (YES THE ALL COME BACK!) Tamahome, using their chi was able to beat Nakago. (You should've seen it his hand went throung him and everything!) But he was also able to see inside Nakago's mind, which he was saddened by Nakago's bitter expeiriences. Not only that but he knew he had to return to his world and leave Miaka to hers. (but hey they get back togther... atleast till OAV #1)

Hotohori desu!!

Real name: Saihitei

birth date: 2, Shi-gatsu (april 2)

age: 18

Place of birth: Somewhere in the palace, Eiyou, Konan country

Height: 182cm

Hotohori is the emperor of Konan country. He has all the characteristics of an emperor. He's tall, handsome as hell, kind, generous, rich and narcisstic. Although Hotohori-sama seems withrawn, he is actually a very caring man and constantly tries to deal with the affairs of his country and people. (That is when he's not being self absorbed or thinking about Miaka.)

Hotohori's strengths is his amazing ability to use the sword. He is said to be the best at it. (Hey what do you expect from a guy who sleeps with his sword?) His character appears on his neck.

However even with all the power, wealth and utter jelousy from people (both men and women....since he is more beautiful than them...) Hotohori feels as though he is a caged bird. He thought that Suzaku no Miko.... his ideal woman could help him with his loneliness. So from the first day he met Miaka he fell in love with her. Unfortunately for him she was in love with someone else..... although for awhile there it looked like there was a love triangle going on.

Oh well.... He can always have Nuriko!!!!

Hotohori also found a wife. Man the she looks like Nuriko, actually Tamahome and Tasuki where so scared when they first saw her, they thought that they were being haunted!!! Even Miaka thought it was Nuriko, that is until she saw that this Nuriko look alike had breasts!!! With a wife and everything, Hotohori's last words before he died was "I loved you...." "find happiness... Miaka" Yup he still loved Miaka. Infact, he died for Miaka. Nakago was already going to let him go. But not before he told Hotohori-sama that he was going to take over the Miko's world and in his words, "I'll say hi to Suzaku no Miko for you" well that did it and Hotohori just went berzerk! So he died. But not before he got injured Nakago a little.

Nuriko desu!!!

Real name: Chou Riyuuen

Birth date: 10, San-gatsu ( March 10)

age: 18

Place of birth: Capital of Konan, Eiyou

Height: 166cm

Nuriko is the third seishi. His character appears near his chest area. (yes I said HE). Nuriko is another "beautiful" man. His hobbies are crossdressing and Hotohori.

Nuriko's strengths is his super human ability. Yup that's right, this cross dresser can lift heavy bolders, and anything else without barely breaking up a sweat. With his powers and all he still is given a hard time by the other seishi because of his... (ahem) being attracted to Hotohori-sama. (But who the hell can blame him?!? Hotohori is sooo damn Beautiful, even guys like him! ^_^) But it still doesn't matter to the seishi and A lot of the Seishi had at least once addressed him as "gay boy".

Actually Nuriko finds himself in love with Miaka. (hey who wouldn't if Miaka was the only girl out of the group obviously all the guys would fall for her, even Nuriko) But that doesn't happen until much later in the series, where he gets a "hair cut". But even thought he is in love with Miaka he still is attracted to Hotohori.

*NOte* In the Manga, Hotohori's wife looks a lot like Nuriko mixed with Miaka. Oh yeah also, when they were saying their goodbyes Nuriko asked Nyan Nyan if he could borrow her body again so he could hug Miaka one last time.

Chichiri desu no da!!!

Real name: ?

birth date:21, Go-gatsu (May 21)

age: 24

Place of birth: unknown. (He's a wondering monk for crying out loud!)

Height: 175cm (although he can become less than 1meter...)

Chichiri is the 4th seishi of Suzaku. His character appears on various parts of his body. His strengths are his magic powers and the ability to make everyone laugh no da!!! And he is also somewhat the one who often gives advice (when he's not being funny).

Chichiri's character provides comedy relief for the show/manga, as well as Tasuki. He is very wise although it might not seem like it because of the smiling mask he always wears. (He always has a spare) He wears this smiling mask to hide the scar that keeps one of his eyes shut for good. Personally I think chichiri looks way cool with out the smiling mask. Chichiri wa kakkoi ne!!
*note* chichiri-kun got the scar at a fight he had w/ his best friend because the girl that chi-chan was in love with was messin' around w/ his best friend and well, all hell broke loose when chi-chan found out. So, he keeps the there as a memory of his best friend and what happened.

Oh yeah in the show Chichiri is one of the few people who doesn't get scared by Taiits-kun. (or atleast not that scared). This is because He trained with her for 3 years.... Damn that's a long time to train with SUNAKAKE BABA!! iyaaa... ano... Taiits-kun.

Tasuki desu!!!

Real name: Koushiyunu Genrou

Birth date: 18, Shi-gatsu (april 18)

age: 17

Birth place: Kou-shou, taito-shi, Base of Mt Reikaku

Height:178cm

Tasuki is the 5th seishi. I LOVE THIS GUY! Tasuki appears first when Miaka, Nuriko and Hotohori got captured. At first he seemed like a bad guy. But he really wasn't. He appearantly hates women. I think this is because he has 5 other sisters and he's the only guy. But he obviously cares deeply about Miaka. (I think he likes her too!! He does like her! ^_^ fool's in love w/ her. *sigh* Lucky girl that Miaka.) He also forged a strong friendship with the other seishi, namely Nuriko and Tamahome.

Tasuki's strengths are his abitlity to weild his TAISSAN (iron fan that spews out fire to incinerate people), he is also a good brawler, almost equal in strength to Tamahome.

His weakness is his bad temper, not to mention his foul mouth. ...then again, those can be considered strengths. heh heh. (his foul mouth iz due to hiz total Kansai dialect if you ask me!! Most peepz I know In real life who lived or lives in Kansai prefecture pretty much has the same dialect.)

Oh yea one more thing, when they were saying their goodbyes to Miaka, Tasuki said "I have nothing to say, sorry.... except that I no longer hate women, I just hate everyone!!" (ofcourse you know he was just kidding! ...*g* actually that translates to, "I'm really in love w/ you Miaka, but Tamahome got to you first." )

Mitsukake desu!

Real name: Myojuan

Birth date: 7 Go-gatsu (may 7)

age: 22

place of birth: North Konan. Somewhere in Sou which was near Choukou

Height: 199cm

Mitsukake is the 6th seishi. His character appears on his palm. His ability is healing.

Mitsukake's strengths are his good bedside manner. His devotion and care to animals, sick people and children. This man would actually give his own life to save someone elses. Unfortuantely he couldn't save his love's life. Shoka-san who lived in the near by village Choukou died of a disease. Mitsukake was unable to cure her because at this time he was asked to visit a far away village, and when he came back it was too late for his love was dead.

To this day Mitsukake still thinks of Shoka-san. His dearly beloved.(Mitsukake's death TOTALLY sucked though! He died cuz he was trying to cure this kid... urgh! and they didn't even show any pics of him... I mean, Hotohori and Nuriko got like flash backs... errr.. flash forward in Nuriko's case. Both Hotohori-sama and Nurkio got a song... even Chiriko got a song when he died for crying out loud, but Mitsukake got NOTHING! ZIP! ZIPPO! NADA!... otay, I think u get the point!)

Chiriko desu!

Real name: Ou-dou-kun

birth date: San-gatsu, 19 (march 19)

age: 13

Place of birth: West Konan, Jouzen-shi

Height: 148cm

Chiriko is the last seishi. (I hate this guy!) His character appears on his foot. He arrived late and saved Suzaku no Miko and her Seishi's from impending doom. This is when they thought that one of seiryuu's seishi Amiboshi was Chiriko. (I like amiboshi better than chiriko!!)

Chiriko's strenght is his intelligence. (if your asking what else that's it. THAT'S ALL HE CAN DO!!) I don't really particularly like chiriko. I think the only things he ever contributed to the group was when he saved them the first time he appeared, and when he died. Oh yeah, and his song sucked too! :p

Kutoukoku ~Seiryuu, Blue Dragon~

Seiryuu no Miko to Seiryuu no shichi-seishi desu.


Hongo Yui desu!!!

birth date: 26, Juu-gatsu (October 26) *same as my brother.*

age: 15

birth place: assumably same as Miaka which is in Tokio.

Height: 162cm

Yui-chan, is.... or was Miaka's bestfriend. They been together since Kindergarden and it seemed that no one would've been able to split these two up. When They first stumbled upon "Shijin-ten chisho" ("Four Gods Sky and Earth"), they were both pulled in by Suzaku's light. (well ofcourse this was accidental because Yui was destined to be Seiryuu no Miko.). Anyway as it turns out Yui is pulled back to the Miko's "world" and later on while trying to help Miaka come back is pulled back into the book by Seiryuu. When Yui first came to Kutou country she was attacked by inner city thugs. (Damn, they got gangbangers everywhere! *_*) Thinking she was raped she tried to kill herself..... the truth of the matter is she wasn't raped. Nakago got there on time and killed the thugs. (by the way if I haven't mentioned it before, the Mikos attract their seishi all the time. An example is Tamahome never left his village before Miaka appeared..... and Nakago just "happened" to be passing by when Yui came about....etc.) Anyways.... thinking she was raped (Nakago went ahead and let her believe she was!) Yui was susseptable to all of Nakago's suggestions about Miaka not caring about her. She tried not to believe what he was saying... but as always the smart ones are always stupid, (Yui is the "brainiac") well she actually believed that sweet Miaka who cares so much about her would betray her. So she accepts the duty of being Seiryuu no Miko. Also Yui has a thing for Tamahome so....

Yui's strengths are being super-duper smart. (but if she was really smart then she shouldn't have been deceived by Nakago, or she should've realized that Suboshi loved her dearly.... that makes me wonder if she really is smart). Her weakness is being susseptive to Nakago and falling for the wrong people. She is also envious of Miaka's good fortune. That being that she always has bad ones.

Oh yeah her other weakeness is being jealous of Miaka!!! In the end Yui (while being consumed by Seiryuu) realizes that Miaka was telling the truth and that she knew that Miaka was but she was too jealous of Miaka to see it. She makes her last wish to Seiryuu to unseal Suzaku's powers so Miaka maybe able to call him. After that Seiryuu consumed Yui but she was saved by Miaka. Miaka's first wish to Seiryuu was, "Yui-chan wa kaishite, KAISHITE!!!" losely translated it means "give me back My Yui-chan" (here's an intersting fact, to call the Animal Gods you have to say Kaijin)

Nakago desu!!!!

Real name: ?

Birth date: 17 Juuichi-gatsu (Nov 17)

Age: 25

height: 193cm

Birth place: The West Hin Tribe.

Nakago wa Seiryuu no Miko no ichiban shichisei. (he is Seiryuu no Miko's 1rst seishi). Kochira wa "kojin" totemo hansamu desu!!! What to you expect from a bad guy who has blonde hair and blue eyes??? (Love those blone dudes! heh heh) His goal is to have ultimate power and if it means manipulating everyone and using them as a stratigic pawn. (actually i think he's just misunderstood.)

Nakago's strength is his abiltiy to control his chi and turn it into telekanisis he's very strong and is a good millitary shogun. Also one of his best strengths if I do say so myself is his ability to manipulate and controll people. Makes you wonder why his symbol is "shin" doesn't it? "shin" means heart by the way. His character appears on his forehead.

His weaknesses.... I don't know.... I guess it would be that he thinks Suzaku's seishi are cute????

Oh yeah now that I have all the FY volumes on VHS and Manga, I know why Nakago is the way he is, His race, the "Hin" race was hated and exterminated. He is the last survivor but only because he is a seishi. When he was 11, he saw his mom being raped and couldn't take it, he screamed, his sign came out and fried the gaurds raping his mom, unfortunately he fried his mom too. (Kawaii sou,{poor thing} ) What he wanted from Seiryuu was to be a Diety. To have absolute power and controll the world. This was his revenge for his race.

Amiboshi desu!!!!

Real name: Bu Koutoku

birth date: 26, hachi-gatsu (aug 26)

age: 15

birth place: Kutou country, Sanuu-shou, tenryou-si

height: 168cm

Amiboshi is the Seiryuu shichisei who should've been a Suzaku Shichisei. He's really kind hearted (and cute!) and doesn't like war. But if pushed enough Amiboshi proves to be a worthy fighter. Using his chi he foucuses it on his flute and sends it out so that enemies perish. (that's his strength) Also he likes to compose music and make people happy. He hates wars because he feels like if there were no wars then there would be no little boys sad because they lost their family. Amiboshi and his brother Suboshi lost their parents when their parents were killed int the war.

His Seiryuu character appears on his right shoulder.

by the way Amiboshi is one of my fave characters..... but Tasuki is my most fave along with Miaka and Nuriko!!!

Suboshi desu!!!

Real name: Bu Shunkaku

birth date: same as Amiboshi

age: same as Amiboshi

birth place: same as Amiboshi

Height: well duh!! same as Amiboshi

Suboshi is Amiboshi's twin. (as if you haven't figured that out!) Although he is the exact mirror image of his brother (who is older then him by a few minutes by the way), He is totally opposite of Amiboshi. Suboshi is more immature and is very vengeful and is ready to fight whenever. He is very protective of his "aniki" (older bro) because Amiboshi has been taking care of him ever since their parents died.

Amiboshi's strength is his ability to foucus his chi into his weapons the "ryuuseisui" which he used to slaughter Tamahome's family. And to kill Tomo as well. The killing Tomo was in part because Tomo was trying to kill Amiboshi.

Suboshi hates Miaka and her Seishi because he thinks that they caused Yui all her pain. Why should he care you ask? Well that's because this boy is in love with Yui-chan. Too bad she doesn't realize it until it's too late. (See, told you Yui was a dumb broad! j/k.)

His character appears on his left shoulder.

Soi desu!!

Real name: Haku kaen

birth date: 30, juu-gatsu (oct 30)

age: 19

birth place: West of China. Nei clan, Gen village. (part of kutou)

Height: 170cm

Soi is Nakago's hooker... *ahem* I mean lover.... ofcourse this is a "down low" thing. There relationship is actually quite uncertain but Soi would do anything for the "kojin" (Nakago) she even said this to Miaka and Tamahome on ep #44: "personally I don't dislike you. But I'm doing this for someone..... I'd sell my soul to the devil for Nakago" Soi's strength is her ability to controll lightning using spells. Also she has that "bouchuu" thing... the ability to controll men with her sex powers. (eh? personally, I think all chics have the power to control men with their "sex powers" *L* See guys have this thing called testosterone. It's actually a great equalizer since it makes just about all guyz become bumbling morons! ) Soi's character appears on her left thigh.

Okay, soi met Nakako when she was only 12. He rescued her from the man that her parents sold her too. After that Soi has always wanted to see Nakago. She truly loves him.... she loved him so much that she died for him. (She shielded him with herself when Tasuki threw a sword at him.)

Ashitare desu!!!

Real name: ?

birth date: 21, juuichi-gatsu (nov 21)

age: 34

bithplace: unknown...

height: 213cm

Ashitare is the "side show freak" of Seiryuu. His abilities are increadible strength and agility. Also he has animal insticts that have no remorse what so ever for any of his prey.

Because Ashitare can't really think..... other than "oh Suzku no Miko and Nuriko look delicious today." Nakago often taunts him and whips him. (Nakago like his whip... thatz his fave toy! ^_~)

Ashitare's character appears on his right hip.

Tomo desu!

Real name: Ruo Chuin

birth date: 13, juu-gatsu (oct 13)

age: 21

birth place: ?

height: 184cm

Tomo iz the clam dude. He has the clam which he focouses his chi at. He has the power to make and controll illusions that are deadly. Tomo is always dressed regally and is said to be a homosexual. (he has a thing for Nakago possibly for Hotohori as well). He like to tease and taunt people who are misfits (because they probably make fun of him and his "kabuki" make up.) Every time he places someone in his illusions he says... "this is my kindness to you" (Geez what a perv. Hentai desu ne?)

His chararcter appears on his right abdomen.

Miboshi desu!

Real name: ?

birth date: 12, juuni-gatsu (dec 12)

everything else is unknown....

Miboshi is probably a really old spirit who takes over bodies when necessary. (So why couldn't he just choose a better body instead of this bald-headed ugly looking thing?) His powers go as far as black magic goes mainly taking over peoples bodies and releasing monsters. (That are possibly cuter than him because he iz way over barney looking!) I have no idea where his character appears.... all I can say is Chiriko showed him who was boss. And then, Chiriko died! (Double Yay!)
