1. 95% of Death Note fans only like it because it's the cool thing to do.

2. Dominant Uke? That's an oxymoron.

3. That's why I haven't finished Xenosaga 3 yet-- it's too good to end. ;__;

12. LOL

[01] I'm afraid to go and read fan fiction for the series; I'm slowly reading the whole thing and I'm loving it for how it is. bad fan fiction will kill it for me.

[02] Now that would be an interesting sight to see with ukes and semes.

[12] -snort- XD ♥

4. Ieyasu was AWESOME, holla. :D

[nosferatu-blue.livejournal.com]

2. Yeah, it can get so boring after a while when every new "original" story fits in with the predetermined archetypes of seme and uke. Personally, I like beefy, where it's the little mannerisms of their characters that determine top & bottom vs. who is taller. (Reversibles are love!)

3. Oh wow, so THAT'S why I've never finished reading a manga series I like! Yeah, it's better when it never ends (if only in our imaginations!)

4. Seems like most can't get past the "pretty" factor when it comes to those two. "Who cares about his personality! He's fucking HAWT! DROOLZ" "Zomg, so ugly! Do not want!"
WTF?
Of course, looks can only get them so far. Their characters will carry them (or not) the rest of the way.

10. Rabid BNFs are fucking scary. Heaven forbid someone oppose them. My sympathies. (There should be others who share your love of ships. Don't lose heart. ♥)

11. Oh god, I'm going to hell but I AGREE! It just seems so much more interesting and gritty than the NOW time.

2.) Dominate ukes or uke that fucking look like men.

4.) Preach the gospel, my brother/sister! Ieyasu Tokugawa ftw!

9.) Yeah, that shit pisses me off too. It's always the good artists/writers that are ignored. Half of it is because of obscure fandoms or because they don't 'ship what the vast majority does.

I can draw.... erm.... kinda. _{if you can call what I scribble out art} But I can't write worth shit.

And half the time, I think 90% of the twits in Y!G are underaged anyway.

2. That's why I like Hiruma uke. *dies* Everyone is like noo Hiruma semes everybody look at how bossy and dominating he is and I'm like EXACTLY! D'you think he'd give a shit what anyone else thought about whatever position he plays where no matter -what- he's doing as long as it's what he wants? *DIES* "I will have you in my ass at gunpoint, fucking seme." Hiruma ♥

9. You kinda do sound full of yourself. >>"

10. Go champion your ship and become a BNF and fight back! :D :D :D Okay, yeah, probably a bad idea, but it'd be funny.

12. For me, I have more of a problem of how they connect Axel in CoM to Axel in KH2. 180-degree turnarounds in character from "lol i backstab u" to "WOXAS I NEED LOVE IN THE BUTT NOW" don't sit right with me.

Word to number 12.

10, I feel your pain.

[liltigre.livejournal.com]

2. PREACH ON, BROTHER! (or sister, or whatever)! A masculine uke and a feminine-yet-aggresively-male seme? Oh hell yeah, bring it. Real men take it how they want it and screw the rest of you. >3

3. That happens to me a lot. Haven't finished SMT:N, haven't finished SRWOG, haven't finished Katamari... the list just goes on.

7. It's understandable. It's perfectly possible to feel lonely in a crowd.

9. The laws of popularity, I guess? I dunno, I don't trawl a lot of y! outside of my fandoms and I very rarely ever know what kind of drama's going on because I just don't CARE. Sure, it stinks that lousy artists/writers are popular, but that makes those who choose to read/look at/review the really good stuff all the more precious and special. :3

10. I don't know any BNFs in my fandom per se, but there are some scary damn groups out there that'll bash you if you look at them funny or do something with a ship they don't like. X_x Whatever happened to 'live and let live'?

[shahni.livejournal.com]

1. The most amusing thing I faced in the Death Note fandom were people who had 'their own interpretations' as to why the Wammy boys were the way they were. One of the amazing explanations were that L would get sold out to 'renters' and would be rewarded with sweets for 'a job well done'. And it was a habit that never left.

Needless to say, I boycotted any associations with fans of L/DN after that and enjoy it with just one or two people at most now. But I guess, you have to expect it.

2. Posessive/Playful/Naughty uke is my preference if I have to play with 'em. I write Mori Ranmaru, and I find it -annoying- when people are all like 'he's such an uke, he's so pretty' Uh. No. While I don't play for the sexual situations, if he's ever in one, he's not going to just lie (lay?) there and take it. And wow, that secret sounded so much like me. I dislike Takaba too. I don't think he has much of a personality, but neither does Asami (Yan and Fei all the way!)

4. Wut. People BASH Ieyasu?? WHY? The guy kicked ASS. WTF. Long live Ieyasu! ♥ What, he's coming between your sexy Mitsunari assrape fests? Sheesh. /bitch

5. I agree, kinda.

6. Done this so many times. I wish I could say that without sounding self-centered. ._. But like.. I recently picked up a character I -detest- to RP, simply because someone was BUTCHERING him beyond belief and I was like I'LL DO HIM RIGHT GRAR. >>"

7. Agreed. ._.

8. This is so sweet. ♥ I could say the same for some friends too. But I know one's always going to help with plots and make them wonderful. ♥ Until we both get bored and like.. do them later. *dies*

9. No comment, other than the fact that I'm used to it now. (I'm not that great in writing or as great as some of my artist friends, so I don't like expecting too much on my art. C'mon, sheesh, it's just artistic release and self-satisfaction.)

11. ♥

12. Hehehe. Whatever you say. You still have to agree on the fact that Axel in CoM was totally different from KHII!Axel. Though I'm sure explanations could be made (and no, Roxas is not an explanation/reason.)

[stamina.livejournal.com]

5. - WHAT, DID I MISS SOMETHING? AHHA, I never finished the game, but let me tell ya: I like Mitsunari for his personality more than his looks--it's a dominant coverage to mask his feminine looks. I LIKE THAT--so I roleplay him here and there for his personality alone. Ieyasu is WIN x359016136 though. I LOVE HIM. WHY DO PEOPLE HATE HIM? Just because he's a REAL man doesn't mean he doesn't deserve appreciation. Just gtfo those haters. :(((

As a Mitsunari RPer, I completely agree to with those comments above (that's how I play him; ohoho)!

3. I don't finish most video games, simply because I have a -lot- of them and a very short attention span. >>

[sanje.livejournal.com]

3) I'm just like you. D: I end up finishing them eventually (in most cases), but it usually takes me a few months longer to complete the game or series than it should. It's not that I don't want to know the ending, it's that I just don't want it to be finished already.

9) Well, at least they're trying. :[ I guess they just update their stuff so frequently it gets seen more than the people who spend a lot of time and effort on their own stories/drawings, and their material appeases the rest of the fanbrats. There's a lot of Naruto and KH2 fanart floating around DA lately that really isn't that funny, well-done or even in character but pops up in the most-favourited section anyway.

The thing is, when you do something constantly you tend to improve a lot faster. So they might not have anything worth your time now, but they might someday. I know I wasn't what you'd call a mature and respectable individual when I first started drawing stuff either.

I'm not totally sure if I sound like it, so I'll say I actually agree with you that this isn't fair to the people who draw beautiful art and aren't recognized enough for it.

[infringe.livejournal.com]

3. For me, it's only when they suck. xD Like KH2. Totally not worth the four-year wait. :E It's been gathering dust since I bought it.

12. Oh, we know that. We just like the CoM-side of Axel more. ):

[infi-inficio.livejournal.com]

1. Argh I never write Death Note fics in case I'm not smart enough @__@

10. What are BNFs? I think I have an idea of what they are, and if I'm right... I agree. D:

[(Anonymous)]

♥ 8. I know who I am. :)

[x-of-greene-x.livejournal.com]

12. I agree with Case, Shagni and Espada on this one. He just changed a lot... it's kinda like kid!Michael Jackson and adult!Michael Jackson, except for the fact that Axel=/=Michael Jackson.
