7. Maybe people would take it more seriously if Kouga Yun wasn't completely batshit insane.

Curious. Why is she batshit?

[identity profile] moebot.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Her page layouts are on crack and hurt my eyes, she has a lot of really annoying and viciously obvious continuity problems that make everything even more confusing, she has the lamest "not gay rly!!!!1" cop-outs for a lot of her characters, she seems to think that being 'deep' and giving her characters lots of issues are the same things, and she has a lot of problems finishing her series' and with deadlines in general.

Of course, I fully admit to loving the manga BECAUSE of these very reasons.

[identity profile] a-white-rain.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I think that she's doing a really good job with Ritsuka and Soubi's issues.

THOUGH I AGREE WITH THE LAYOUT PROBLEMS IN THE MANGA. Though I'm not sure how that makes her batshit insane.

[identity profile] moebot.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I disagree :<b She is getting better, though. The most recent arc is probably the best thing she's ever written.

I guess I just don't get to see writers write a kid who is abused like Ritsuka with any sort of honesty.

[identity profile] a-white-rain.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Ritsuka's abuse from his mother, his reactions to it, are something I find fairly realistic. And I like that while his mother is clearly wrong, she's also not evil.

[identity profile] a-white-rain.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
So I disagree with having issues makes a character less deep. It's how the writer handles it.

Ahahahahaha, oh, me too.

Though I think Loveless is pretty coherent and non-batshit compared to her other stuff. And that's saying something. I should catch up.

YOU HAVE TO SPILL IF YOU SAY THAT.

DO YOU KNOW ABOUT KIO'S WIFE?

[identity profile] moebot.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
WELL NOW YOU DO.

According to Kio's official character bio, he has a wife and kid. ...an actual wife and kid.

[identity profile] a-white-rain.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
LOOL. I DON'T THINK THAT ODD, REALLY. He's Kio. But I can see why that'd drive people nuts, even if I suddenly love him lots more.

GOT A WIFE AND KID AND HITTING ON A DAMAGED SUB WHO LIKES PAIN A WHOLE LOT?

[identity profile] moebot.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
I have no problems with the Invisiwife, I just think it was an incredibly lame "he's not gay rly" cop-out on Yun's part. Because... she does that a lot.

[identity profile] moebot.livejournal.com 2007-08-23 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
It strikes me as Yun being largely "I think this is hot but I don't want to go all the way with it OH LOOK HERE'S AN EXCUSE" since... like I said, she does it a lot.

And then just stared at the pic a while :(

........He looks like he's doing an interpretive dance. Of Swan Lake.

Bondage version.

Nonononono, you need to find the halter top with the pink go-go boots where he's on Soubi's lap =D

*giggles so much* I <3 her art, but seriously, the things she draws Ritsuka in make me LOL more often than not.
