Did Saiyuki Reload: Gunlock just have Gojyo make his staff-thingie disintegrate into light or somesuch?  Not that I really have a clue where he keeps that thing, but "summons it from a pocket dimension or something" probably wasn't my main theory.

Unless, of course, this is some sort of manga canon that I've forgotten about.  In which case, I'm shutting up now.

Aaawww.  DVD is paused on sleeping Lirin curled up in a ball.

ETA:  Confusion has been cleared up!  It was just that the disappearing into crackling light confuzzled me!

For once that isn't a Gunlock screwup -- it's semi-obscure manga canon from Petit Burial that didn't get an official English release until Reload 8. Nyoi-bo and Shakugetsujou are weapons possessed with demonic power that had been sealed away in a jar in Keiun Temple's treasury; Gojyo and Goku broke the jar horsing around when they were supposed to be cleaning, and now the weapons are bound to them for life. (Which sort of josses the common fanon that all youkai can summon weapons from hammerspace, but at the same time that now makes the earlier scenes where Goku and Gojyo are fighting bare-handed in situations where a weapon would have been handy a bit more understandable...)

Ah. I vaguely recall that now. I think I was busy pouting at no Kougaijitachi when I read it.

It's really more like...well a mist effect, I suppose you could say. In the manga, he's able to summon it, and it just sort of gathers like particles in his hand...

I think it was the disintegrating into crackling light that threw me. I'm used to it just appearing and disappearing.
