About this series
Many years ago, humans and demons lived in harmony. But that unity ended when demons started attacking humans and plotted a mission to unleash Gyumao - an evil demon imprisoned for thousands of years. Now, Genjo Sanzo, a rogue priest, must team up with three demons - Sha Gojyo, Son Goku, and Cho Hakkai - and embark on a perilous journey to the west to stop these demons from resurrecting Gyumao and restore the balance between humans and demons on Earth.

Product Description
Contains 8 complete episodes on 2 DVDs!
The road west is marred by the potholes from the past - Sanzo's adoption by Buddhist monks, Hakkai's life in a Catholic orphanage, and Gojyo's troubled relationship with his brother. But was it these childhood burdens that made them into the only men who could undertake this incredible journey? Or was it their previous stint in paradise that forged their eternal bonds?
After all, when an bored bureaucrat of the gods takes in a heretical monkey, and joins forces with two other rebels of heaven, those are the kinds of things that keep friends together. Forever. (For better or for worse.)
