105. Except their "excuse" is "I don't enjoy reading subtitles." Since when should their hobby have to adhere to your standards? Since when do people need an excuse when it comes to what they prefer for their happy fun time?

You prefer subs? Your dyslexic friends prefer subs? Great! You choose to watch them that way. Gooood for you -- it's your preference. Saying "BUT YOU DON'T GET TO DECIDE WHICH YOU LIKE BETTER" is pathetic. And don't even try to play up the "I have dyslexic friends!" card. I'm pretty sure we can all tell that, if your dyslexic friends dared to prefer the dubs to the subs, you'd be getting uppity with them too.

If someone doesn't enjoy subtitles in the shows that they're watching for THEIR own enjoyment, THEIR own entertainment? That's their choice. Because, you know, they're doing it because they enjoy it, so they shouldn't have to shut up and watch something subtitled when they don't enjoy it as much as the dub just because you've decreed yourself to be the authority on what's acceptable or not when it comes to watching a goddamn anime. Seriously, think about this: you are getting bitch over whether people feel like reading subtitles while watching a goddamned cartoon or not. Take a few minutes to fit that into the "perspective" part of your brain and maybe you'll realize how absolutely ridiculous that shit is.

131. Just the way you phrased that, that is my favorite I'D TAP THAT secret ever. XDDD

136. She was always a girl, though? The audience always knew she was a girl. I mean, I guess you could say you found it much less sweet once Shang found out she was a girl, but I thought they showed pretty obviously that he wasn't attracted to her until he found that out -- until a while after he found that out, even, since he was so angry at first. :x Sorry, I just don't get the secret.

137. I will never love a Rival more than the red-haired bastard from Gold/Silver/Crystal. :| That is all.

147. ... Holy god she's beautiful in that shot.

149. Why don't you and the people who don't enjoy porn write something that isn't porn, and you all can enjoy it, and the people who enjoy porn can write and enjoy their porn? There'll even be a hell of a lot of overlap, as some of the best porn I've read has had awesome writing and occasionally even plot (or at least character study/development).

152. See, watch this be replied to by dozens of people insisting that no, you're wrong and stupid and pathetic, Twilight is horrible and one of the worst things if not THE worst thing ever written. And I am starting to become convinced that at least half of those people haven't even touched the books. :|

153. Fuck I hope that movie's awesome. *A* It deserves to be.

154. Put me down as the same for Takehito Koyasu, Akira Ishida, and freaking Mona Marshall, man. (And Crispin Freeman to some degree!) Seriously ♥♥♥♥♥

136. I dunno, I'm kind of in love with the idea that Shang was attracted to her before finding out she was a girl, and that he spent the entire movie confused about his sexuality. It makes his character that much more amazing.

Ooh, I can actually see the appeal of that idea -- I can even see being able to work with it (his anger at finding out she's a woman stemming partially because of his confusion at having been denying his attraction all this time when now "he" is a she and attainable) pretty easily! I guess I just got confused because the OP seems to be talking about the canon itself, as if there was an actual straight-out love story blossoming between them while he thought Mulan was a man, and that confused me. XD

I've never thought about something like this idea of yours before, but I'd buy it.

The way I've always read it is that he had come to see her as a "kindred spirit" (not a fan of the term, but it gets the idea across) and that learning she was a girl (once he realized that he could see a woman as an equal) made it possible for him to consider her in another way. I don't think he realized that he could be attracted to her until the emperor gave him a figurative whack upside the head.

Thank you! This is so what I meant. Now that its up and i'm getting responses i realise my secret was worded very poorly. I meant from his POV that she was a boy. I just thought their relationship was so much better than it would be once she's a girl. They were so equal and now even though that's obviously what he wants in a girl, she has to comform to societies expectations and cos she's a 'girl' again. And I do totally think that if he was attracted to her once he found out she was a girl, and nothing else about her changed...he had to have been having those feelings man. I think they were just very suppressed feeling. :D

I'm rather proud of that one XD
