Ligah I cannot help but agree with you. I'm not exactly a very good analyzer. Even during school I can't analyze well. (For some weird reason I'm an honor student) I guess we're so used to seeing their 'Masked selves' that we have fallen in love with the masks, no matter how great their real selves are. Another opinion is that I think that since they're so used to wearing their "mask", it's now infused into their personalities. Sanzo's now a (psychologically) immature, grumpy kid (in case you didn't catch me the first time, PSYCHOLOGICALLY.), Goku's eating and acting like a goofy kid to make up for 500 years of never growing up, Gojyo... well, I don't want to explain it, and Hakkai now has a smile plastered onto his face with a gentleman attitude. Oh well. *hits myself for so-called bad analogy* If your analogy was about the masks... then it wasn't at all bad. Everyone wears a mask. People will ask "How are you?" and for the most part we automatically respond with "I'm fine" even if we aren't. And as i think back to my earlier statement, Hakkai wanting to be 'dominated'... sounds a little kinky. xd Who knows? Maybe Kanan was a little dominatrix behind closed doors! ...It's always the quiet ones... *sigh*

That leads us back to the first question... Who IS the best?
In terms of strength...
1st: Goku (For more reasons than two.)
2nd: Gojyo (It's not as easy as it looks to lug around the shakujou...)
3rd: Hakkai (Pretty magic... Wait, that's cheating!)
4th: Sanzo (Relying on a gun and holy paper, Eh? Hmm...)

Terms of Strength: Goku (physical and mental, considering his past) Terms of Wit: Gojyo (believe it or not, with all his jokes) Terms of Smarts: Sanzo (he was smarter than all the other priests without trying!) Terms of Keeping Everyone from Dying of Food Poisoning: Hakkai ... ... ... Okay, in terms of frightening the crap out of enemies... Hakkai. I wouldn't want him angry at me, considering he keeps his cool in the most upsetting of situations. If something pisses him off... I'd be a million miles away.

He breaks your arm. 3. He starts sprouting cool sentences. (e.g. "Someone ought to teach them a lesson, Don't you think?") 4. He's smiling, but his eyes (and sometimes eyebrows) are twitching. 5. He makes a terrible joke, laughs at it, then suddenly looks serious. 6. If he takes off his limiter, run away. Run away quick. 7. Watch out if he does the "Son Goku DBZ" pose. And there's a pretty white ball of energy in his hands. 8. He looks at you with his hair covering his right eye, his monocle reflection covering his left, and he's either smiling evilly or his mouth is expressionless. 9. You don't see his face, but there's one of those vein thingies again at the back of his head. 10. Chain Reaction principles say that if you irritate someone, someone will be irritated. Don't irritate Hakkai. rofl

You don't see his face, but there's one of those vein thingies again at the back of his head. 10. Chain Reaction principles say that if you irritate someone, someone will be irritated. Don't irritate Hakkai. rofl ABSOLUTELY TRUE! After all, don't piss off the guy that drives/cooks your food/keeps your clothes clean (really... do you think Gojyo or Sanzo are washing their own clothes)/etc. Sanzo knows better than to harm Hakkai because he knows how much of a frightening guy he is... Actually, Hakkai's a lot like me. I usually have a very laid back personality. If something irritates me, I usually let it slide for a long time. However, when I snap, I get very loud and on the verge of hurting someone. But once I calm down, I may or may not apologize but you know that I'm over it and have chosen to put it behind me. Besides, I've taken so many character tests and they all say Hakkai with the occasional Sanzo readout... But those reasons you gave, Here they are in order most minor to major scaryness of Hakkai's anger: 10. He speaks/acts normally, but there's a certain tone to his voice that warns you. Especially if he is repremanding you for something.9. He's still smiling plesantly, but his eyes (and sometimes eyebrows) are twitching. 8. He starts sprouting cool sentences. (e.g. "Someone ought to teach them a lesson, Don't you think?") ("I have plenty of experience in juvenile behavior" -speaking to Kami-sama in manga... He was getting rather annoyed with the man.)7. He makes a terrible joke, laughs at it, then suddenly looks serious. 6. You don't see his face, but there's one of those vein thingies again at the back of his head. 5. He breaks your arm. (but still has smile on face)4. Watch out if he does the "Son Goku DBZ" pose. And there's a pretty white ball of energy in his hands. 3. You see him NOT smiling, with one of those anime-vein things on his head. 2. He looks at you with his hair covering his right eye, his monocle reflection covering his left, and he's either smiling evilly or his mouth is expressionless. Or his eyes are shaded and he's not smiling. That is foreboding in a way you cannot believe cause all you can think is 'this isn't good at all'.1. If he takes off his limiter, run away. Run away quick. Or stare in awe if you aren't the one he is mad at. wink THEREFORE, Chain Reaction principles say that if you irritate someone, someone will be irritated. Don't irritate Hakkai. ...The chain reaction thing was more of a therefore statement anyway... Stuff I added is in red.

What the Sanzoikkou would be without...
Sanzo: Goulash, do I even need to tell you? No monk, no journey.
Goku: A lot less fun road trip, a little less grumpy Sanzo, and practically no line of defense and half the righteousness. (The other half comes from Hakkai)
Gojyo: A lot less fun road trip, a little less grumpy Sanzo, and less 'girl noises from the other room'
Hakkai: They'd all be sick. And half as far.

rofl Gotta love having 'mummy' along! Otherwise the kids will never get to soccer practice on time!
And in reference to family:
Mom is Hakkai
Dad is Sanzo
Big Brother is (duh) Gojyo
and Baby is Goku
eek ...that's certainly a scary image of Sanzo. I mean... he already wears the robe, but what if he started wearing floral print?

Even if I am a yaoi hater, I will, just for the sake of it, not interpret your Hakkai as mom and Sanzo as dad thing as yaoi. (In most cases, I would. *shudders* I hate my toilet-bowl mind.)
In my opinion, Hakkai is both the mom and the dad. I mean, Sanzo isn't exactly the kind of dad who's... dad-ish.

I remember in the manga this bit (roughly):
Goku: "Sanzo, can we get some?!" (points at meat bun stand)
Sanzo: "No."
Goku goes to Hakkai and goes into crocodile tears mode.
Hakkai: (comforting Goku) "What's the harm in getting some?"
Sanzo: (says seriously) "A spoiled child develops bad habits, Hakkai."
Gojyo: (comes up behind him and grins) "Spoken like a good mommy."
Sanzo: "Do you want to die?"

Impulsive Priestess LOL yes Hakkai is like a mom. After thinking about it I remembered reading in the Gaiden manga I have they call Kenren and Tenpou husban and wife.... and I think Tenpou was the wife so would that make Gojyo the dad? (Man I love Gaiden, I love how Tenpou always falls alseep xd ) Kenren and Tenpou are referred to as husband and wife, I think, after reading several manga scans of Gaiden, because I guess both of them are always there for each other, like best friends (and most marital couples) would. Kenren is an adulterous one, so I doubt that he'd be a good husband. 0_0 I think it's better to call them best friends. You hear the husband and wife thing... like less than five times... And yes, Tenpou asleep is as funny as it is cute. (My Gulay, I suck at explaining.) Jippu I haven't read that yet... so I'm a bit illiterate in that field. Is it out in America? I don't know, But I know you can find manga scans at mangacity.net or mangacity.com (I forgot... But I know I also have all available Gaiden manga scans in my computer.)

Okay. In terms of magic, who is the best?
1: Hakkai (Think. If that stuff can blow up buildings, and he's not even trying hard, what else could it blow up?)
2: Sanzo (He's a monk, after all. A monk who can magically make papers fly!)
3: Goku (Hmmm. What else explains the 500-year-old stomach?)
4: Gojyo (The only magic you see there is the summoning of the shakujou)
Honorable mention: Yaone. (Healing! Whee!)

I may be biased, but I think Hakkai's are the best. Simply put, it's the most versatile. It blows s**t up, heals people up, and can be used as a nifty flashlight that doesn't need batteries (other than the user...)!
