I've been waiting for explicit bottom!Kuwabara fanart for decades now - but with Hiei. There's a serious dearth of explicit Kuwabara content on all fronts and I'll never understand why because Kuwabara is in fact the best character of Yu Yu Hakusho. Where's the smutty Yukina/Kuwabara content for that matter? Yukina is both canon and hot, where's all her fanart?. *continues waiting patiently in my horny corner of the internet*

I've never looked for it since whenever I looked for YYH smut, it was always Kurama/Hiei or Karasu/Kurama, but there's really no Yukina/Kuwabara?

If you're the anon who made a secret (or just a comment?) About Kuwabara and Hiei, nowthat I'm watching the show, I could see that dynamic working as a ship.

But Hiei is hilarious lmao he's so mean to Kuwabara!

(Anonymous) 2020-12-01 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh. I guess he's taller and "plainer", sure, but Yusuke's definitely the stronger of the two and routinely handed Kuwabara's ass to him even before they got into the demon/spirit world stuff, and his overall personality better fits the "tough guy" thing than Kuwabara (Eikichi comes to mind). I would have absolutely assumed top!Yusuke, by strict stereotypical dynamics. Their heights don't factor in for me at all.

OP

(Anonymous) 2020-12-01 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yusuke's more of a pretty boy, which combine that with their relative heights and builds he was basically destined to be the bottom in fandom's eyes unfortunately.

Yusuke definitely does have a more "tough guy" attitude too, I agree, but you see, when fandom decides they want a certain character to bottom that just becomes even more of an incentive. If fandom liked the idea of him topping they would claim his tough guy attitude means he's such a manly top, he could never bottom, but since fandom decided he's a bottom now it's all "uwu it's even hotter once he lets go of those inhibitions in bed and gets a good railing".

As with most BL stereotypes they're insanely arbitrary and make literally zero sense if you think about them for more than a half second, but it is what it is. :(

AYRT That's so dumbbbbb. I like a good seme/uke trope as much as the next shipper, but not at the cost of their actual characters.

(Anonymous) 2020-12-01 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't ship this pairing, but nearly everything about Kuwabara screams uke and I can't see Yusuke being an uke with anyone (well, maybe Keiko).

(Anonymous) 2020-12-01 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
100%. No one tops Yusuke but Keiko.

NAYRT

Facts

(Anonymous) 2020-12-02 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Anon who just started watching with the FS rewatch group always assumed Kuwabara would be a bottom. Mostly based on the fact he was one of my fiance's characters, and she has a type. XD At any rate if I ever write that pairing, yep. That's where I'm going.

(Anonymous) 2020-12-02 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
This isn't my pairing, but I definitely see where you're coming from OP, and I think you mentioned it up thread -- in any situation, Yusuke is definitely running the show. Kuwabara is a real sweetheart though, I didn't appreciate him as much when I first saw the show (doing the rewatch too).

(Anonymous) 2020-12-02 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
Kuwabara <3333

Recs?

Did not realize I was into this ship. Sounds like there isn't much out there, but if there is any well-written YusukexKuwabara, with bottom!Kuwabara that anyone wants to recommend, I'd be into it.
