25. Blood types are like horoscopes. Generalizations that people put too much faith into.

36. People will always find something to bitch about. You should go for it anyway.

65. Regardless, he's still not "right" and anyone who feels that way is being silly.

69. When I'm bored, I watch those shows. I can't say I'm impressed much. I agree with your assessment really. I think the women suck.

72. Ha ha ha! <-- Me laughing with you.

OP RE: 25

It wasn't really about personality. The type I thought I was is more useful compared to the type I really am (I have a parent in the Red Cross, so I'm going by their figures), and I suppose that 'losing' the ability to help anyone on a larger scale was what bummed me out. :/

Sorry, but if you think anything by Ken Akumatsu is meant to be deep on any level, you're wrong and reading way too into it. The man writes the same story filled with every moe stereotype female characters he can find. The only thing new he did with Negima was instead of having a hapless dweep male lead, he made Negi a Harry Potter-esque shota bait to be the affection of his always prevalent Tsun-dere from hell female lead. Fandom wank defenses won't save any face that Akumatsu only writes the same kind of shonen harem fluff over and over. :D

Re: 28

[identity profile] floralcloud.livejournal.com 2008-03-15 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Agreed. Love Hina was one of the most crappy mangas I've ever read, and Negima! just perpetuates trite plot devices.

21. I hate secrets about how people hate shipping secrets. They're whiney as shit. Yeah, I know, they get a bit repetitive, but hey, scroll down! Isn't it amazing how the secret zooms out of the way of your eyes when you do that? I mean, god, sometimes the person who ships them wants to keep it a secret. Okay, you don't care. Great. They probably don't care that you don't care. C'mon, dude, get a life.

30. Same here. I mean, I've shipped friends before, but they're usually friends who constantly piss each other off. XD It's more fun that way, methinks.

53. You know, you're free to like/dislike what you want, hell, I don't even watch Doctor Who, but it just really irks me when people say that look down on others for liking or disliking something. Why is it any of your business what their tastes are?

65. Well, I don't agree with Raito at all, and still find him to be an insane, murdering dickweed, but I agree that his character was way overdone and kind of fluffed up in the anime to make him look a bit ridiculous. Course, that's more of a hit on the anime than agreeing with Raito, but whatever. I feel like a manga-snob, but it's true.

But by that logic, you should have scrolled straight past the "I hate shipping secrets" secret and not bothered commenting about it.

I suppose I should have scrolled past your comment about hating "I hate shipping secrets" secrets, but... I like bitching and don't particularly give a shit what people make secrets or comments about.

She must have been chosen for her looks, because her acting, while it doesn't suck, is pretty bad.

Not Bela bad, but still... its a shame she cant have talent with her hotness too.

I don't think Kristen Bell should have been her either though.

21. You mean that people are actually posting secrets that don't interest you? My heart bleeds.

40. Now that's a secret that I can agree with. Kenshin would be an awesome buddy to have.

50. I disagree. Sure, some of their stuff is pretty mediocre, but X/1999 will always be one of my favourite manga of all time.

53. I'm sorry that you're so shallow and judgmental.

65. I read the manga, and I still think that he's an evil, self-righteous, petulant douchebag.

Oh, and 55

I disagree with the sentiment that romance 'cheapens' a relationship. Just like I disagree with the sentiment that friendship is somehow 'less special' than romance.

36 OP

(Anonymous) 2008-03-15 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, yeah, of course -- but if it were just a matter of "some people" not liking it, that probably wouldn't bother me much. It's more that fandom as a whole seems to have a bias against professional translations -- not just the fanbrats, either, since some of the mostly sane and intelligent fans that I know do it too.

All that said, though, I know it's probably stupid to let that get to me at all.

It's called an opinion. You should be free to hate them just as we are free to like them. So what if they don't make masterpieces? So what if their writing kind of blows in a lot of cases? I still enjoy reading their stuff. Seriously, accept the fact that people don't all like the same things and quit bitching because not everybody agrees with you.

Liking something = / = thinking that something is Godlike.

And also, tons of people don't like Clamp, it's not really that unique or daring to say such a thing. :\

1. It's alright. Even I, as a Christian, feels no one feels how about Jesus the way I do. Maybe that's the reason I never got into the church thing and honestly think I would ever will (especially when I fall asleep everytime I go). Maybe one day you can find someone who will understand. I understand why people believe and don't believe, but don't let that people believe differently than you get you down.

6. Yes, they would be awesome brothers! The brotherly moments would make me go D'AWWWWWWW.

10. PROTIP: Meteor Garden was a ripoff of the Hana Yori Dango manga which came YEARS before MG and the Hana Yori Dango J-Drama.

14. I think most people don't bother since they can get their gen fix reading the official sources. Fanfiction and fanart exist for exploring something that not exist most of the time. Frankly, I don't feel sorry for you since you're most likely aren't doing the things you want people to do. Write/draw more, rally up. Don't expect people to do it for you.

24. LOLWUT?

28. I like Negima but it's not that spectular IMO. It's entetaining although School Festival Namek is sooooo long that I stopped it. But I think the fanservice hurts the title IMO.

29. I know the feeling. LMAO.

50. Oh well, your opinion. While I don't think they're the best since slice bread, they do delieve quality storytelling compared to most in their field.

55. Why do people think romance CHEAPEN anything? That irritates me the most of secrets like this.

65. Seconded. The anime really overdid the series and it's characters to the point it was a parody of the manga at times. And that it really cut out good portion of the second arc.

Not!Secret #2: Ditto.

Not!Secret #5: MOTHERFUCKING SECONDED. Fandom is not SERIOUS BUSINESS. Honestly.

5. *rolls eyes* or maybe you're like other fans who don't always like what the 'canon' gives you. stop martyring yourself to be so victimized and just enjoy what you enjoy.

9. so your wikkle muses get their feeewings huwt because their stories aren't finished? LOL how very cool and edgy of you.

14. but since we're not going to GET the sex in the source material, people exercise their fantasies and their desires through writing it. yes, people really do know there is more to a story/life/characters than the sex but where's the titillation in that?

write it if it means that much to you. sponser fic memes and contests, offer to help the comms, spread the word. I'm getting a little sick of people trying to sound so superior because they LOL LIEK GEN AND THERS MOAR TO LIFE THAN SEXXORS. yeah. we get it. get over it.

16. or you could get over yourself and just do what you like. seriously, people. I'm a male in the fandom and not ONCE have I felt OPPRESSED because simply I don't let people try.

then again, I don't let fandom/the interwebs dictate my fun for me.

hint: it's not serious business, ya know.

21. good lord thank you OP!

22. leave?

29. and we all know he would know it and boot people out of the fandoms for writing it instead of exercising tolerance and allowing people to grow.

34. because obviously people who don't like what you like are retards. *nod*

36. this secret makes me sad. don't give up! please?

37. Rule 34. enough said.

42. another ooooh so edgy and cool to be bothered by something secret. *yawn*

44. trust me, there may not be a huge following but someone will miss it. really.

50. and we all know our own opinions are right and EVERYONE ELSE IS WRONG FOR LIKING SOMETHING WE DON'T!!!

53. oooo, another 'think less of the for it' secret. *yawn*

56. *goes to check the Name the Fandom because that looks interesting*

60. ...I'm not even going to say anything about how idiotic the 'I'm gonna buuuuurn' shit is.

65. the anime is canon in its own right.

67. word to the nth degree

72. word to the nth degree and taken to infinity.

Hey, you're not being silly. That's a valid issue, and it's good that you're concerned about it. Still, if you're concerned about it, you're probably not the kind of person who's gonna be a problem. A fanfic isn't a limited commodity; you can't use it up on the wrong people. You can't hurt anybody just by reading. As long as you're not trying to influence people's tastes, and as long as you can stay respectful of them during discussion, you're fine.
