I never said anything about Touya/Yukito and neither did the OP. Though having just read CCS the other day, I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that Yukito/Touya is canon. But that's not what the secrets were about.

Honestly, I've felt like that myself sometimes over other pairings. There's romantic love and there's platonic love and sometimes people just mix the two and call it a day. Yes the wording on 41 is rather all inclusive, but only when viewed as such. Jumping on the OP's case is only going to perpetuate that opinion.

It's one crap anime compared to another crap anime, it doesn't matter that one had a manga to precede it. Why can't Tsubasa be the OP's favorite anime despite it's crappiness? Sure, it sounds like they haven't read the manga, but maybe they have and still appreciate the anime. It's like when books are turned into movies. People get themselves all wound up over how the movie doesn't live up to the book. The movies can still be appreciated separately, crappy as it is.

I know it is. But if you see, the OP is also the OP of secret #4. And they're saying Yuki/Touya are canon. When they barely show up in Tsubasa, and DON'T have a canon declaration in CCS.

I'm not saying it's not canon - I'm pointing out how in CLAMP-verse, you can't go with the same rules as in other mangas. You won't know that a couple is in love because they actually say it out loud or because they kiss each other, most of the time, which is something you would be able to see in other series.

If #41's OP had just said 'I prefer them as friends', then it'd be fine. But they worded it as if everyone shipping it was a stupid fanbrat who only ships them 'cause it's two boys.

It can be their favorite anime, but they can't make a judgement on Kuro and Fye's relationship - not an accurate one. Most of the important stuff regarding all five main charas happens AFTER the anime timeline, so it's ridiculous. It's like saying you ship Harry/Hermione because Ron is a moron in the movies - you can like the movies, but it won't mean that a judgement based solely in them will be way less informed.

Ahhh, I hadn't noticed that. The text was far too small for me to read.

I agree with you there, especially with how CLAMP loves to mess with us. I mean, the last chapter of TRC? FTW CLAMP?

Yes, it was worded badly. Sticks and stones. If someone throws something at you because they think you're mean you're only going to reinforce it by throwing something back.

So their judgement is inaccurate and less informed. They're not going to be convinced otherwise by being jumped on.

*shrugs*
I'm still not exactly sure why it was so badly worded...i got called an elitist in another reply. heehee, i jsut don't ship KuroFai. sorry? Tut mir leid? anyway, i like your opinions on all this, since so far it's the most levelheaded. this is what makes this comm fun though...the wank.

You don't need to apologise for not shipping it. It's just, I do agree, the way you worded it was a little...off. It sounded like you were saying 'Anyone who ships Kurogane/Fai is clearly just doing it for the buttsex'. Maybe you didn't mean it that way, but I think some people may have taken it that way. (I like the pairing, but I'm not shipping it because of buttsex potential. I think it's a really touching relationship, however you look at it and it makes me smile.)

I also have to agree with jlarinda's opinion on the anime. It is quite poor. I mean, if you enjoy it, then enjoy it, but it's not the best quality and Season 2 is just...well, they created a lot of plotholes for themselves by running away with the fillers. (Which was amusing in itself.)

I do recommend, however, if you enjoyed the anime you give the manga a go. It's not the most fantastic story in the world (whilst I'm at it, I'd recommend xxxHOLiC. That's really good.), but the manga is lot more detailed and involving than the anime. Also, you may get to see the KF shippers pov, as in the manga there is more emphasis on their relationship (however you see it.). I'd recommend reading it if you like the characters more than anything, because they get so much more development in the manga. <3

(Sorry, I rambled.)
