I guess the pairing just doesn't fit your tastes then, because I saw plenty that indicated a romance just in the 2nd arc. :/ They had chemistry, they were happy together, there was mutual blushing, signs of affection, etc. And the scene of them in the cockpit at the end of episode 15 showed that they would probably continue to grow closer in the future.

THIS IS WHY I VOTED FOR JOHNNY BOY. SOMEONE MIGHT ACTUALLY DO THAT AND IT WOULD BE A HORRIFIC AND TRAUMATIC EVENT FOR OUR COUNTRY. (NOT NANCY, LOL, THAT BITCH HAD IT COMIN', BUT EVERYONE'S FAVORITE MESSIAH.)

104. I know it's comforting to know you have a character you can relate to like that, especially when it feels like most real people are difficult to trust. It's not easy (I probably don't need to tell you that); it can be difficult to reconcile living a life you think is genuine and also wanting to be happy. I don't know if it's really related, but somehow I'm reminded of a quote from the director's cut edition of JTHM:
"Dear Die-ary,: There's nothing terribly wrong with feeling lost, so long as that feeling precedes some plan on your part to actually do something about it. Too often a person grows complacent with their disillusionment, perpetually wearing their 'discomfort' like a favorite shirt. I can't say I'm very pleased with where my life is just now... but I can't help but look forward to where it's going."

Personally I've had some pretty okay experiences with therapists and the pills I'm on now for my own anxiety/depression issues help, but I don't feel doped up on them. Not that that's everyone's experience, just my own.

However you decide to proceed with your life, I wish you luck.


122. Hellz yeah, A Goofy Movie! God, I used to listen to the soundtrack of that every damn day.

164. Best Misa cosplayer ever. She inspired me for my own Misa cosplay, though hers is still much better.

I wish I could be sure it was, but I'm actually thinking it's on the level, just because you have to be more than casually interested to also pick on Reps Pelosi and Frank.

That's because Nia was the only living individual Simon was comfortable with.

109. Hoooo boy you're either a complete moron or really trying hard for the wankbait, huh?

In either case, I'm sorry you're so pathetically petty.

119. ...uh, sure. Because nobody EVER ships anything that doesn't reflect on their sexuality. As a gay hetshipper, I say fuck you.

127. It was once my deepest, darkest fandom secret, too. That was about a year ago. I totally, totally understand.

153. I'm stoked for it.

Simon and Nia watching together the new world, they talking happily on the phone about everyday unimportant stuff, Nia watching Simon quietly work on his Kamina statues, they enjoying their quiet company without the need to say a single word... that's what I consider romantic.

And that wasn't the real Kamina. That was the Kamina living in Simon's heart. It was the idealization of his beliefs. They couldn't feature Nia in the sequence since she wasn't dead.

Regardless, reading this conversation I see you finally used the words "to me". Perhaps we can finally agree to disagree instead of saying that our opinion is the only correct opinion in the world and that everyone else is wrong.

"chemistry"

Keyword. Chemistry is something 100% subjective. Chemistry is the key to romance. Chemistry is something that can't be measured objectively.

I think the problem I have with it, in the end, is that GL is ultimately too carefully constructed for me to buy the romances as romances. I mean, I saw visual cues, like you did. It's not like I was flummoxed that they ended up engaged, it's just...well, it was basically about the "idea of love" and less about love as it happens between two people, messiness and awkwardness that comes as part and parcel.

Nia and Simon were always slightly too compatible, slightly too "SOULMATE HAS APPEARED" for me to be invested in them. It came across as plastic to me.

There's a reason he liked to be alone thought the show. He was never with everyone else on the jokes(episode 12), he liked to watch the clouds by himself(episode 13), he liked to be in his office by himself rather than to go partying or hanging out with the rest of gang and after Nia died he decided to leave Kamina City because even if they were his dear friends he never felt any desire to be close to them.

If I knew how or had the time, I would start a comm.

This lack of SNL fandom needs to be FIXED!!

Maybe we should FIX IT.

1. DIW2-Wow. I used to LOVE those books. I guess I'm glad that was before my slash days, but now I'm tempted to go back and re-read just to see how it looks. On the other hand, I'm thinking that if I go back and re-read Charlotte's Web, I'll start slashing Wilbur and Templeton and that wouldn't be good at all.

109- You are one fucked-up loser. And if there's any kind of justice in this world, you're going to be a very unhappy one eleven days from today.

120- SIGH! If you really do have a House in your life, you need to protect yourself, but I'm not sure saying anything as painful as Wilson did is a valid way to do it. And of course in Wilson's case---SPOILER----it didn't stick anyway.

125-I'd read that. Especially the noncon stuff.

130-Yay Shaz secret. A2A is no LOM, and I loathe Alex, but Shaz is a fun character and deserves more love.

147-LOVE QI secrets. Where's my Jimmy Carr/Phil Jupitus smut?

159-I don't care how it ends, as long as it causes the maximum pain to the fandom, preferably in a way that shuts it down forever. *laughs maniacally* I will outlive this blight!

Re: OP

[identity profile] jimmyrabbitte.livejournal.com 2008-10-24 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Now here's the conundrum: do those of us who actually want a fandom join up with that infrequently-updated SNL community that's already up on LiveJournal, or do we start a new one which will be more awesome?

(BTW, your picspams are a perfect Friday pick-me-up.)

OP of 117

(Anonymous) 2008-10-24 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I thought they had messiness and innocence going on. They valued their time together and it worked because enjoying each other is what love is all about. The scene in episode 27 after they defeat the Anti-Spiral where they are content to just lay together without doing nothing other than being with each other is to me what epitomizes their relationship.

Re: The rage is strong with me today

[identity profile] csakuras.livejournal.com 2008-10-24 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I will agree that Nia wasn't given much screentime in the second half of the show, which I found disappointing. But all the emphasis given to her character in the last episode made me forgive that a little.

To me, a single moment of Eureka and Renton doing the dishes together had more love than anything else in the entirety of Gurren Lagann.

Eureka Seven had 50 episodes. Gurren Lagann had 26 (not counting the recap which wasn't originally planned), and crammed two epic storylines into that length of time. I'm surprised they even had time to show Simon & Nia having fun at the beach together or Simon enjoying Nia's food. As it is, they still managed to get the themes across and give many people enough to love about the pairing.

N!S1 I know this is just your opinion but you are so wrong. Original Gundam is superior. I mean, anime fandom in general wouldn't even exist in its current form if that anime was never produced. It's the first of the militaristic mecha shows in general. Not to mention that the characters are so much more compelling and enduring than any character from Seed. C'mon, CHAR? THE anime villain? Hello?

152 Oh god, I think he looks creepy! I hadn't seen a recent picture of him... eeeh!

Re: OP of 117

[identity profile] musouka-manga.livejournal.com 2008-10-24 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Simon and Nia watching together the new world, they talking happily on the phone about everyday unimportant stuff, Nia watching Simon quietly work on his Kamina statues

Yeah, those were the "few scenes" I was talking about in my initial post. Very romantic, but they still felt pretty hollow to me.

Perhaps we can finally agree to disagree instead of saying that our opinion is the only correct opinion in the world and that everyone else is wrong.

I didn't think I needed to add a disclaimer to everything I wrote to make it clear that it was my opinion. Or that I advocated reprogramming Nia/Simon fans to the "right" way of thinking.

103. I approve of everything about this secret. :|b

107. I'm kinda tired of the whole whole "MC-of-a-shoujo-series-is-a-Sue!" argument anyway, since in a lot of cases, that is a trait of shoujo manga. Not always, of course, but it's a common trope itself. That's just the way some of the series work, so any complaints about it or arguments to the contrary are totally missing the point.

109. Oh, than you're a shithead! Congratulations! I think McCain and Palin are running the most disgusting campaign in history and are in many ways very bad people, and even I wouldn't wish for them to die. It's fuck-ups like you that are a danger to human life, congrats on being exactly the kind of retarded audience McSame and the Bitch are trying to reach with their hate-speech.

114. Dude, he... doesn't really look at all like a chick, actually. Sure, wouldn't have to change much to make him arguably a her, but he's definitely not there yet. O_o

117. *sigh* People. You need to learn not to say "ALL _ SUCK FOREVER BLARGH," because that's only inviting yourself open to feeling like an embarrassed, secretive hypocrite when/if you ever do find the exceptions to your personal rule. Grow up some, and feel free to like what you like.

119. Teasing is teasing, genius. They probably do not actually think you're gay just because you like rainbows, but rainbows (and to some degree, the color purple) are associated with gay culture to some degree, so you might get teased.

And sorry, guess what? Just because I write, read, look at, and love het and slash, doesn't mean I want to get in any male's pants, sorry. The idea of having sex with a guy is just... ew. Not a turn on. At all. So I guess I'll just stick to being one of your Impossible Lesbians, since obviously slashing males means I just want a good hard cock, by your argument.

121. So much this forever and ever and ever and ever. *A* ♥ Also, that is the cutest Nia pic I have ever seen. Link to original if you have it pleaaaase?

128. I'm willing to bet that they're not "all just fucking batshit," even if the louder ones are (I don't know, I'm not in the fandom). And by painting everyone with the same brush, you just managed to make them look persecuted and yourself look like a dick. Just wanted to warn you about the really bad phrasing.

131. ... You know, I think that show might have had something to do with lessening my emetophobia, too. (It used to make me cover my ears, close my eyes, and cry.) That said, I approve of this secret too because oh my god FARSCAPE FUCK YEAH. ♥♥♥

142. It's not really just respecting the creator's background, you know. They all do tend to have different drawing styles (I can, for most series, tell a manhwa on first glance), and a lot of them have slightly different tropes because of the cultures. And, sorry, but comics =/= graphic novels =/= manga, manhwa, OEL manga wtfever. Not in the industry, anyway; there ARE clear differences between them, and manga are nothing like most comics, comic books, or graphic novels, so filing them all under that heading would be confusing at best. =X

146. Oh, wow, she's not the best of Asia, you personally don't like her, and her personality may or may not be the best! (Sorry, not gonna take one unsubstantiated opinion as gospel. I may do research, but mostly I don't care enough to.) I'm just gonna go ahead and go back to enjoying BoA's song anyway, along with a ton of other Japanese artists who I also don't care about other people's opionions for.

152. ... omg he grew up adorable. |D Wao.

155. The label to this one made me choke. XD As for the OP... I don't quite get exactly what your secret means. What do you need help with? Being yourself more or becoming more driven and outgoing, or what...?

164. Sob @ state of fandom. Since when does any character have to be a great person, a perfect role model, and someone we would like to be bestest best friends with in real life for us to love them as a character, anymore? That said, that cosplayer is smokin' so I can definitely get that end of the secret. :>>>>>

When did Nia and Simon's love ever cause personal problems between the two of them? When did they ever "misunderstand" one another, or hurt one another? Those are part of being in love with someone.

107, 121

[identity profile] implication.livejournal.com 2008-10-24 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
107. Were we watching the same anime? o.0 Sure, Princess Tutu is pretty perfect, but Ahiru sure isn't. How many times in the series did she lose faith in what she was doing and give up (albeit only for short periods of time)? And let's not forget about how that temper of hers kept her and Fakir from getting along for about half the series. Sure, she was well intentioned for the most part, but she didn't always act selfless. Ahiru made mistakes (like trusting a creepy guy offering a weird piece of jewelry...). Anyway, I don't like using 'Sue' in reference to a canon character, and that includes the category of canon!Sue.

121. You have my approval JUST for using Nadja. That series needs more love AND SOMEONE NEEDS TO FINISH SUBBING IT ASDFJKL;
