Information: Nuriko is definately one of my favorite characters in Fushigi Yuugi, of course I love them all. First introduced as a princess in the royal palace, Nuriko quickly admits a love of Emperor Hotohori and must be "forced" to become a seishi for Miaka as Miaka is an obstacle in the way of Hotohori's love. Of course Nuriko sees the good in Miaka eventually and joins the ranks of Miaka's seishi willingly. A person of remarkable abilities and a strong sense of self and duty, Nuriko is the COOLEST of the cool. Best friends with Tasuki, shoulder for Miaka, and general friend to all.

Kit's Comment: Nuriko is not...as you could say "gay". It's just that when he was young his little sister died tragically and he couldn't get over her death. Soon, Nuriko dressed like his little sister and "became" her. But later on in the show, he found that he had to let her go so he started acting more like the guy that he is.
