More unsourced fictography and cruft. Is this an encyclopedia or an anime fansite? Just Another Cringy Username (talk) 22:28, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Fushigi Yûgi or delete unless sources indicating notability for the grouping can be provided. Similar to Fushigi Yûgi: Byakko Senki and Fushigi Yûgi: Genbu Kaiden, the very core characters should be briefly described in a few sentences each, while everything else is cut. It really depends on if the current content can be salvaged, or if it should just be redone from scratch. TTN (talk) 16:00, 23 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: An AfD for a similar listicle over at The Story of Saiunkoku resulted in the character list being redirected to the main article. A much shortened character list has since been added. Just Another Cringy Username (talk) 03:48, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Fushigi_Yûgi#Plot. The list is 100% fancruft, poorly referenced, but a short list of key characters does belong in the plot summary of the main work (which currently has nothing on this). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:24, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
