The Geography of Saiunkoku: some notes

I wish they would include a map of Saiunkoku in the novels. In the anime they did, but they change some things in the novels, so I don’t know how ‘accurate’ it is.

Anyway, I thought I would make some notes on Saiunkoku’s geography. There are SPOILERS here up till book 12.

Saiunkoku 12 (2/2)

Well, looks like I managed to finish this summary before the new Gaiden comes out on November 1st. Yay? I uh… will probably get that one done in a more timely fashion, as I plan to split it into two parts, first the new material and then the old stuff.

Saiunkoku 12 (1/2)

And now for the latest volume… BTW, this book is long; the author herself says so in the afterword. XD
