Line 10: Except Pai isn't about to allow that to happen... as a third eye opens in her forehead, and Yakumo's soul is sucked out of his body and into hers, turning him into her Wu, or "undead" protector and slave. Now, their fates inextricably bound, Pai and Yakumo must navigate the perilous occult underworld in search of a way to change them ''both'' into true human beings... and to foil the world-conquering plots of [[Big Bad\|Kaiyanwang,]] "Demon-Eye King" of the Sanjiyan, and his own Wu, [[The Dragon\|Benares]]. Not to mention the [[Eleventy-Zillion]] or so other demons and monsters seeking to gain immortality by drinking Pai's blood. Created by Yuuzo Takada, the author and artist of ''[[Blue Seed]]'' and ''[[All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku]]'', ''~~'''~~[[3×3 Eyes~~'''~~]]'' (pronounced "Sazan Aizu") ran in ''Young Magazine'' from 1987 to 2002, was collected in forty manga volumes of which nine were translated by Dark Horse Comics, and spawned an OAV series adapting the first five. Plans for a 2003 TV series were scotched by Japanese censorship laws. In 2009, Yuuzo [[Revival\|revived]] the series, making '''''3×3 Eyes Gaiden: Yggdrasil no Yadorigi'''''. Despite the ''Gaiden'' title, it really is a sequel set 7 years after the original ending,<ref>Parallel with the time the original manga ended publication and started with this one</ref>, the series still is ongoing and details are scarce, as Yuuzo pretty much made only 3 introdutory chapters and put the series on [[Series Hiatus\|hold]], no bigger plot was introduced aside Yakumo and Pai helping a girl from her [[Power Incontinence]], it just showed a little bit of the characters life-style now after 7 years. Although Dark Horse's official translation has been canceled, a complete [[Scanlation]] project may be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20140418055201/http://www.sazanquest.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1 here]. Line 42: * [[Cute Little Fangs]]: Pai, very much so. * [[Cute Monster Girl]]: Pai, Hua Shi, Uukai, and plenty others. * [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Happens a lot, but the results are ~~haphazard—there~~haphazard -- there's no telling whether the foe will do a [[Heel Face Turn]] or a [[Redemption Equals Death\|redeeming]] [[Heroic Sacrifice]]. * [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Parvati. * [[Designer Babies]]: the God Citizens of Amara. Line 66: * [[Magikarp Power]]: Kuuyon, Yakumo's cutest and most useless looking summon, also happens to have the ability to ''eat any kind of magic''. In a universe where magical stuff forms a large part of the action, this ability tends to be extremely useful. * [[Masquerade]]: subverted; demons and monsters hold humans in utter contempt, and have been in hiding only because of Kaiyanwang's orders to that effect. The masquerade begins to break down when Kaiyanwang is believed to have been killed, and by the end of the series the situation has devolved into a worldwide supernatural war. * [[Meaningful Name]]: The Sanjiyan are all named after (or, seeing as how most of them are many thousands of years old, probably inspired the names of) Hindu ~~gods—Parvati~~gods -- Parvati, Shiva, Ratri, Ushas... ** Sanjiyan can be translated into 'three eyes' in Mandarin. One of the opening chapter arts also refers to Pai as a Trinetra, which is Sanskrit for three eyes. * [[Mons]]: Juuma (Beast Magic) creatures, apparently created by Benares as combat familiars; however, they're mindless servitors rather than fighting "partners". Bonus points for actually being able to show up as cute little critters in certain situations.
