11. awww I love misa misa!

13. ♥ HINAMORI IS MY FAVORITE~ I think she's fantastic, she isn't weak, just dedicated. And uh....Ichigo doesn't have purple hair? I'm so confused.

14. OKAY FIRST OF ALL. You just insulted Kaori Yuki's art, no no no no. That woman is what inspired me to start drawing in the first place, she's pretty much my hero. While it might not be 'Victorian' it's still beautiful.

19. hrm~ While I agree, I still love fandom to pieces.

13. She means hating Hinamori because she's spineless is like hating Ichigo because he has purple hair. So, because Ichigo doesn't have purple hair, Hinamori isn't spineless.;D

ah~ I get it now. I was like "WHAT?" for a few seconds.

13. Um, what the secret maker meant was that hating Hinamori for being 'weak and spineless' is like hating Ichigo for having 'purple hair.' There both stupid.

14. ...And? If everyone agreed, the world would be a boring place.

This is true, but I don't understand how anyone could say the art was bad. I just get sort of worked up when someone insults something that I respect so much that it isn't even funny.

Eh, I can, especially if they're the sort to enjoy more simplistic art or very masculine men. And I can understand that; There are things that I get hair-triggery about too (for example, if it even looks like someone's getting dog-piled over a difference of opinion.)

Agreed.

Art Secret Poster Doesn't Personally Happen To Like ≠ Bad Art.

To give a personal example, I don't much care for Tolkein's prose. I wouldn't claim it was bad prose just because it didn't do anything for me. It's not bad prose and The Lord of the Rings is not a bad book just because I personally didn't get on with it. By the same token, I cannot believe anyone with eyes in their head could call Kaori Yuki a bad artist. I can, much as I love her work, understand that her art style isn't going to do it for everybody - but to claim she's a bad artist is frankly ridiculous when she is very obviously nothing of the sort.

And anyone who gets their ideas on Victorian society from Count Cain needs to borrow a clue. No, it's not an accurate portrayal of life in Victorian London, but that's because it's a Gothic fantasy and is therefore not even trying to be a realistic portrayal of Victorian society. What next, slamming Angel Sanctuary because it doesn't accurately reflect the Christian faith?

Especially after reading down where you said that you got worked up over it. Least I'm not the only one. ♥

But really, a reasonable amount of Kaori Yuki fans have struck her down it seems. ^^
