Well,what Fushigi Yuugi website would be complete without giving a nod to that mother of all drag queens, that queen of cross-dressers, the most bent of the gender-benders... yes... the object of my obsess--er, devotion ^^; ...

Pssssst! This page contains Episode 30 Spoilers. If you don't know who Kourin is or her significance, maybe you should go visit my Nuriko character page instead -- it's spoiler-free.

Now, I can't really put into words why I think Nuriko is the coolest guy this side of the anime universe...
Maybe it's because of his annoying tendency (so like my own!) to tease the ones he loves the most.
Maybe it's because of how he matures and grows to overcome personal tragedy so that it no longer rules his life, and becomes a new, stronger person as a result.
Maybe it's because of how he unflinchingly made the ultimate sacrifice for the one he loved.
Awww...let's face it. It's mostly because he's so darn cute! ^_^

Yes, you can also find this on my Nuriko character page, but I thought it was important to put it on his shrine as well. *shrug* Full Real Name: Chou Ryuuen Seishi Name: Nuriko Birthplace: Eiyou, capital city of Konan country Age and Birthday: 18, born March 10 Family: Mother, father, older brother, younger sister Blood Type: B Height: 166 cm --> 5'5" Seishi Power: Superhuman strength Seishi Character: The kanji for "Yanagi" (Willow),    located just below his left collarbone First appears in: Episode 3 of the anime series Hair Color: Purple (my favorite color) Eye Color: Hazel

I got this picture from Ryen's cel gallery and made it into a (bad) transparent .gif

Several of the pictures pictures on this page came from Thea's Nuriko Shrine (the former Suzako no Webpage, now relocated and renamed to fushigiyuugi.com). Others are from the now-defunct Nuriko-chan's page. Still others are from Kristy and Priya's scans, and there's one from Suzaku's Roost. There's likely nothing here that you haven't seen already -- such are the trials of one with little merchandise and no scanner. Don't pity me, just send me money, thanks ^^.

This is Nuriko looking glamorous and feminine. As Hotohori said about him, "I don't believe it. There's another man as beautiful as me?!"

Gallant Nuriko! Um... I called the file "nurikosword" because I have bad eyesight and thought he was holding one ^^;

Nuriko gives Miaka and the other shichiseishi a hand ^_~

Miaka and Nuriko are officially very cute together ^^.

He's a guy! No, wait, he's a girl! No... "Nuriko wa...Nuriko da yo." (means: Nuriko is Nuriko)

Hmmm...I'm gonna have to make a separate page for these soon enough...
