I was always rooting for Kyo, but after ready that 10th volume I think it would be nice to see herend up with Yuki. I usually wait two or three months before getting the other books that way I can pick up three in a row that hold me out for two days. The other character they didn't introduce in the anime was the horse.

The horse was the sea-horse docter Hatori. Unless you missed episode 8?
I only missed the rooster int he anime, all the rest were shown. One episode specials for them then they never show up again (kinda found that very annoying).

Actually, the dragon in the zodiac was the sea-horse. The horse doesn't show up in the anime, but she does in the manga.

Hatori is indeed the dragon. One of the names for a seahorse in Japanese translates as "baby dragon", and this is why he turns into a seahorse.

The horse is a normal (land) horse when she transforms.

The horse is named Rin. She isn't in the anime at all

Disapointing for me, since I am the year of the horse.

I think the anime and manga is very similar up until the end of the anime. It seemed like they wanted to keep going but the manga wasn't there and they ended it to keep from making stuff up. That's my opinion by the way.

I can say...things are getting weird in the manga....(ones coming out in Japan)

And necroposts show effort :p Instead of making a new post, they actually had to have searched for the topic they wanted to talk about.

Yeah, and it prevents saying the same stuff twice.

I didn't like the end of the anime. It just left me hanging. None of my questions were answered.

Must--find--manga!

That's exactly what happened.
