Sorry I haven't been around lately. I guess you can blame it on transitions into new fandoms [aka Operation Hello Naruto]. Also, Fruits Basket is particularly shiny.
On that note, Yuki/Tohru owns all of you. This is indisputable.
There are so many people on my flist I'd love to have a nice conversation with, but if I started listing, I'd never stop. I want to get to know all of you better. With 67 friends, it's kind of hard sometimes, but I really love all of you and I check my flist religiously.
I'm trying as hard as humanly possible to start writing again, but the process is slow and discouraging. I could use a beta for what I've got done so far.
[Dear
I miss you more than most things.
Love
Also, I think everyone should check out

And Naruto...hehe...Bleach too yah? And D.Gray-Man! If you need the chapters for Bleach and D.Gray-Man, I have all of them, including recent ones. ^__^ And music for Bleach as well. ^^ I will definitely check that out, I haven't read Miroku/Kagome in such a long time although I reckon

Yuki/Tohru is amazing. You are like my favorite person ever right now. I was expecting so many people to be like "No way, Kyo/Tohru 4 evah!"This means I love you.
And oh man! I've only been able to read the first four volumes of Bleach, beacuse I borrow them from my brother's friend that he never sees. It's so awesome. If you sent me it, you'd be my hero times a million and three. I'd probably have to write you some Yuki/Tohru in return ^_~.

Re: lovelovelove
No way! Yuki saw her first (like...really saw her first) and gods...I just like the pairing that I can't helped but cheer for them even though it seems inevitable Kyo/Tohru is gonna happen...just cause she likes the cat of the zodiac sign.Well, I have 183 chapters of Bleach being uploaded at the moment (manga-rain scanlations), I'll post it soon! ^^

*deflates*
I'm all better now not really.
I've only seen a few episodes of Naruto, and a couple of Fruits Basket. It makes me feel like a poseur if I write fic about fandoms I've barely stepped into, you know? Although, the few eps were enough to make me utterly fall in luff with Naruto, he's just the cutest thing evar.
d00d, I am all for nice conversations! Comments are good for that, I think.
*eyes the comm recommendation* Kagome/Kohaku? Sango/Kohaku? MIROKU/KAGOME? Where do I sign up?! XP
July 24 2005, 17:42:10 UTC 6 years ago
Naruto is so amazing. The manga is probably one of my faves. It's so heartbreaking and awesome in every way ever. And ninjas! As for the Fruits Basket anime, back away, don't touch it. The anime is a disgrace to the manga. They screwed the ending up so bad. UGH. [/rage].
Sometimes I feel like a poseur writing for fandoms that I've seen the entire series for. Like Cowboy Bebop and Trigun. Also, even though I've read all of the Utena manga, if I wrote for it, people would be like WTFBBQ because so much more stuff happens in the anime.
Anyway, check out that community, seriously, it's effing amazing. That girl is my hero!
July 24 2005, 20:18:36 UTC 6 years ago
Oh yes, ninjas are t3h funness. Ah, okay, stick to Furuba manga, got it. I guess I'll have to start reading these two series' manga on my next trip to the bookstore. <font size="-2>*waves teeny flag* Hurray for cheating by reading the manga in the bookstore instead of buying it 'cause so many series are hella long and I have no ca$h.</font>[/stinginess]<p>Ooh, yeah, I've seen all of CB but I'd never write for it 'cause I feel like I couldn't do justice to it. Same with Blade of the Immortal - I actually collect the manga 'cause the art is so amazing and the story and characters rawk, but I'd never write fic for it. I'm more willing to tear up shoujo by writing about it, it seems. *lol* I'm the same way as you about Utena! Got all the manga, never seen the anime ('cept for the movie), and can't write about it 'cause they're rather <i>different</i>. >_<

Gosh, THERE! Frickin' LJ, messing with my comment mojo....

Yeah some animes are so good that it's like they're fine on there own. Like with Inuyasha, I think I enjoy writing for it so much because I'm fixing everything that's wrong XD. Is Blade of the Immortal good? I've heard it was. Would you recommend it? And lolz about Utena. I got so confused when I talked to people who'd seen the anime because I knew I'd read all the manga
and don't you just think Miki is the cyootest thing?.And eljay is teh ebil at times. S'ok, I still love you.

*lol* Yes, fanfic writers everywhere correcting the tiny errors in Inuyasha. Such as, oh, not putting Miroku and Kagome together, etc. XP
Oh my gawsh I soooooooooo recommend Blade of the Immortal! The manga is rather expensive at $15 a pop, so I wouldn't blame you if you read it at the bookstore, but I love owning it. Hiroaki Samura's art is ineffably gorgeous. He draws these amazing fight scenes and gore and cool weapons. Plus, the protagonist is kinda an anti-hero, which I like a lot. He is so badass. Furthermore, the most kickass kenshi in the series is a woman! She's pretty tragic, but when she's fighting she don't mess around. And even the main sort of "bad guy" in the series winds up being someone who I, at least, think of as cool. He's not evil, per se, just has no qualms about killing people. Otherwise, one can understand his reasons for doing this and that. The characterization and development and plot are all perfect, it's seriously one of the best manga I've read.[/rambling]
Yeah, I'd recommend Blade of the Immortal to anyone, really, even someone who wasn't into other manga or anime. If you don't mind blood and guts and the occasional complete psycho, absolutely read it.
Kyaa, Miki! I'd so be friends with him and then squeal to myself about how utterly adorable he is.
July 25 2005, 19:35:12 UTC 6 years ago
That Blade of the Immortal sure sounds like something. A while back someone on my flist was infatuated with the series. I'm pretty sure it was
Miki ♥.

Tohru/everyone is pretty fun, too, though. XD
July 27 2005, 05:01:08 UTC 6 years ago
I'm also a really, really big fan of Kyo/Uo [cyoot!].
Kyo/Tohru can bite it. I'm so sorry I don't think him making her bleed once a volume is KAWAII!!!!111LOLZ. Whenever he calls her stupid or moronic or something like that, I'm just like "TOHRU, LISTEN, THIS KID OVER HERE, YEAH THIS GORGEOUS ONE, HIS NAME IS YUKI AND HE WOULD BE CONTENT TO GIVE YOU RIBBONS EVERY DAY FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE."
[Ahem]. Anyway, yeah, Tohru is the fandom's bicycle... and that's just the way I like her! Shigure/Tohru, Haru/Tohru, Momiji/Tohru, Hatori/Tohru, Yuki/Tohru, Shigure/Tohru/Hatori, Yuki/Tohru/Hatori. I like her with basically everyone except Hiro [he's mean O_o;;] and Ayame.

Admittedly, I'm rather fresh to Fruits Basket, so I don't know much. But from what I have seen so far, Kyou/Tohru really has no appeal to me personally. It strikes me as this 'Tohru loves him because he's an outcast in pain' sort of thing. They remind me of Izumi/Meroko from Full Moon wo Sagashite, although that coupling is slightly better. Or maybe a better comparison would be Inu-Yasha/Kagome? Yeah, there we go. -_-
Ayame and Hiro don't get to ride da bicycle? Not even for fun? ^^ What about Akito? I used to like Akito/Tohru before...well...um, spoilers so I shut up. Akito/Tohru is still kind of sexy. XDDD
July 28 2005, 05:31:36 UTC 6 years ago
I'm so glad
And eff Kyo/Tohru. Abusive relationships aren't cute in real life, so why would they be cute in manga? Looz3rz. Hiro doesn't get to ride any bicycle until he stops making people cry. Ayame may ride the Mine bicycle. I've always thought Ayame/Mine was cyoot.
And as for Akito/Tohru, well, I'm not really into yuri XD. Okay, yes, I am. Shutting up now :3.
July 28 2005, 18:06:58 UTC 6 years ago
I would have been satisfied if Mitsuki had actually died at the end. Not that I hate her or anything, but it would have made the ending more interesting. Bold move and all that crap.
FMwS CLAMP style!Ayame/Mine = awesome
LOL. XD
