Saiyuki.

About Saiyuki

Saiyuki is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kazuya Minekura. It was originally serialized in Enix's Shōnen magazine Monthly GFantasy between February 1997 and November 2001, with its chapters collected in nine tankōbon volumes. It was later republished by Ichijinsha, which released a nine-volume edition with new covers from October 2002 to June 2003, followed by a five-volume bunkoban edition from April to August 2015. The story is loosely based on the 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West and follows the Buddhist priest Genjo Sanzo, who is tasked with traveling west with three yōkai companions to prevent the resurrection of Gyumao, an evil god.
