Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

2: I still think Saiyuki is made of true awesome, deeper than most manga that resembles it, and the Goku plot development in vol. 8 was made of win. There really was a sort of a turning point at the end there, but I'm also extremely frustrated by the wait...

8: I've never understood how friendship could be somehow diminished by romatic love. I mean, friendship love + romantic love should logically mean more love, not less, shouldn't it?

22: NOIN! She was very cool indeed. And the only character in that anime that wasn't completely insane, I think. And I say that with the deepest affection.

27: I agree that the term is thrown about a lot, but I challenge you to make that statement after reading Elizabeth Hayden's Rhapsody. It's truly awesome. And by that I mean terrible.

41: No, they haven't. None of the sane (every part of every fandom has its crazies) yaoi fans online that I've seen have ever stated anything of the sort. If it's not your thing, then it's not your thing. Now, if you've argued that it's bad, OOC and disgusting for the sole reson that it's yaoi, then your venturing onto thin ice, my friend.

46: B.A. was totally the coolest member of the A-Team. My brother and I worshiped him.

52: Truly, this manga has been a joy to read, and I've loved all the characters. It doesn't seem to be the parody I thought it was though, which confuses me greatly. I thought the mangaka was making a sarcastic observation with Tamaki's statement that he and Haruhi were the romantic leads in a love story, but it seems the joke is on us after all. Oh well, I suppose that's what AU:s are for!

Well, it depends on your perspective. Personally I think the fact that it's a dynamics of 3, having exclusive relations between any two would definitely to some extent compromise/isolate the remaining guy.

Many people see romance differently because of the experiences they have in life. For most of it, I've had stronger platonic friendships more than I do relationships that is based on sexual attraction, so maybe that's why I'm inclined to see things more that way. :)

Well-you have a point.

The author of Ouran is an Shoujomanga writer, it was never said it was only a parody what I know. It's wierd to except just a comedy.

It's just that a love comedy is easy to mix with parodies.

Besides, the author more or less stopped with the parody thing with Tamaki and Haruhi after a while. I guess she became more used to writing Ouran by then.

I myself luckily don't need AU:s

I really should stop with the shoujo, shouldn't I? They often start out so well, and then sink down into the swamp of triteness, and above all, heteronormativity (I'm looking at you, Fruits Basket!).

it was never said it was only a parody what I know

Well, of course not. It's not like manga is marked down by those sort of genres. I just thought the way every shoujo cliché was joked about was a hint of some4thing different...

It's just that a love comedy is easy to mix with parodies.

Really? I think it's quite hard, actually.

Besides, the author more or less stopped with the parody thing with Tamaki and Haruhi after a while.

More or less. Haruhi was still as annoyed by him as ever, right up to the latest chapter. I really have trouble seeing her falling for him (though his feelings have been obvious from the start).

I still think making fun of a certain type of storyline, and then using that storyline in the same manga is a little... strange.

Well-you have a point.
