I read on http://www.animenewsnetwork.com that there are 3 Saiyuki series and a movie:
Saiyuki (50 eps)
Saiyuki Reload (25 eps)
Saiyuki Gunlock
Saiyuki: Requiem (movie)
Yes, and I have them all on HK and have watched all but the last disk ( 9 epi.) of Reload.

Saiyuki Reload and Saiyuki Gunlock have been licensed by Geneon Entertainment (USA) Inc. and Saiyuki: Requiem has been licensed by ADV Films. This is good news! It means that sooner or later all Saiyuki series will be on sale in the US.
Yes, but that still doesn't change the fact that whoever licensed it has seriously altered the character Hakkai in the dubbed version. They had the first episode on a New Type disk and if you read in the anime newsgroups you'll see how many people were rather upset about the change of character... Now as to whether or not they changed his character in the subbed version I don't know for sure, but I would like to know before I pick up any R1's since I definetely won't be watching the dubs...
