Wow, thank you! The novel was published in 2003 and completed in 2012. A whole 9 years. That's really impressive :0

You're welcome! The novel/anime/manga was quite famous in the Shoujo lovers community way back then. I hope the series will follow the central plot of the original story to attract more people to the community and vice versa.

Just wow.

Thank you for the link pips.

OK, given the Chinese live-action drama's imminent release.  I hope the anime get re-license in the US since Funimation let it expire in 2011 (despite I can watch it on Retrocrush and Amazon Prime Video, makes me wonder who has the license now).   I wonder if Netflix (or which streaming site can get the US license) to stream the live-action Chinese dramas for people who are watching (or have watched) the anime.

Also speaking of animation, and given that Chinese animation has done OK.  I wouldn't mind if The Story of Saiunkoku would get a Chinese animation remake alongside the live-action adaptation.  I mean after watching the Chinese animation, Heaven Official's Blessing (which itself is also being adapted into live-action too) and The Daily Life of the Immortal King, I thought why not give The Story of Saiunkoku a Chinese animation remake/adaptation.  The Japanese anime was interesting, but the light novel was finished in 2012 when the 2nd season of the anime was done in March 2008 meaning a lot of material was never adapted into the anime.  I wouldn't mind if the Chinese animation can start over fresh and finished what the 2-season Japanese anime couldn't.
