The Twelve Kingdoms



The Twelve Kingdoms (Japanese: 十二国記 Hepburn: Jūni Kokuki?, also known as "Record of 12 Countries" or "Jūni Kokki," a common alternate reading) is a Japanese series of light novels written by Fuyumi Ono and illustrated by Akihiro Yamada. The first entry in the series called "The Twelve Kingdoms: Sea of Shadow" was published by Kodansha in Japan in 1992; the last Kodansha volume was released in 2001. In 2012 the series was resumed under the Shinchō Bunko line from Shinchosha. Shinchosha has also begun reprinting the older volumes with new cover and interior art from Akihiro Yamada.[1]

The Chinese mythology-influenced books were adapted into an animated television series in 2002. The Studio Pierrot production aired on Japan's NHK from April 9, 2002 to August 30, 2003, totaling 45 episodes.

The novels were licensed in the United States by Tokyopop and the first four volumes were released between March 2007 and November 2010 as part of their Pop Fiction line. Subsequently, the English license reverted to Kodansha. The entire anime series has been released on DVD and Blu-ray in the United States by Media Blasters.

The Twelve Kingdoms is a series of novels that focus on a world inspired by Chinese mythology, where twelve different kingdoms exist under the rule of an individual chosen by the Tians. The series does not exclusively focus on one character, though the stories of Youko Nakajima, the protagonist of the first novel, and Taiki, the protagonist of the second book, are most prevalent in the series.

Do you know up to what volume does the anime adapt?

I'm also making epubs for this as I get around to reading them. I'll post them here as I finish them (might not remember to update this post). I'm scanning the novels of both editions too so they'll have all the art. I'm no graphic designer, so I'm just putting the text over the cover art.

Volume 0 -- The Demon Child [Worlds in Translation] (didn't scan the reprint of this one since it only has one illustration, not really interested, but I used the existing artbook scans)
EPUB (MEGA)

The links don't work... could someone update or repost the volumes? Also, is this novel licensed? If so, could anyone post the official volumes?
