15. Longshot, but if you're the person who translated Beautiful Wings of Light?

LOVE YOU FOREVER <3 <3 <3

I've been looking for those ever since I first heard and only found them by chance looking for Time Diver lyrics. Yay!

24. I hate it with the passion of a thousand suns. >:

[identity profile] asgaja.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 10:19 am (UTC)(link)
12: ILU! Really, it's an awesome series and more people need to realize that. I just wish there was a way to get that without inviting all the drama and wank and crap that always occurs when a fandom grows.

24: Apparently not. Maybe I'm around the wrong kind of people because all I ever hear is of hate for that movie. It's even to the point of me wondering if I'm the only one who actually liked it.

30: IAWTC! ...and am surprised at the lack of wank at the mentioning of Doctor/Rose. O.o

33: Honestly, they're the reason I even considered watching the movie a second time.

40: THAT HE IS!

[identity profile] hineko-eloriel.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha. I was surprised at how much I agreed with this comment and then I saw that it was just you. XD

12. I think I prefer the fandom as it is now, actually. But yeah, it would be nice if more people could discover how great the series is.

30. How you know that your fandom is way too big: you get surprised when there isn't any wank over certain subjects.

33. But...but... The eye candy! T_T

40. I have only one thing to say: INDEED.

(Using this icon because it's still the only PSoH icon I have uploaded. ^_^'')

As attentive as usual I see. *pat pat*

I LOVE YOU HI.

OH SNAP. Yup, HOLiC is definitely better than Tsubasa.

I WAS a major Tsubasa fangirl, then the Infinity arc/Fai's past came along, and I got so bored with it I decided to catch up with the 5+ volumes of HOLiC I'd neglected. It was then I realised HOLiC was actually a lot better, and I get annoyed too when Clamp neglect it for Tsubasa.

Also, I agree totally with Kurogane being Tsubasa's saving grace. I do like Fai; I liked him more when he was being a fruitcake nutter though, and I do love his relationship with Kurogane (platonically and non-platonically), but...yeah. Kurogane brings all the awesome to the yard. I'm voting him as God in the next elections D:

It seems a lot of people that I've been talking to OL and IRL have caught up on HOLiC through similar means XD.

I won't lie, I was guilty of diving into TRC with full enthusiasm while giving HOLiC the brush-off, mainly because I had heard that Xiaolang and Sakura would return. During Hurricane Ivan's power-down in 2004 I was given the chance to catch up on the Del-Rey volume releases and ended up loving it more than I thought I would.

Most of that rant secret of mine was worded a bit poorly, as hate's a bit too strong for my case. As I've said I still read it, I just prefer HOLiC over Tsubasa and honestly haven't seen an impressively active fandom for it. I know people are always bitching about how they don't want their fandoms bigger, but I'd really like if HOLiC were as active and large as Tsubasa so there'd be some variety instead of the same old thing and more people to share a common love with.

I guess when it comes down to it, I don't hate Tsubasa for the attention, I'm jealous of it.

And that's what I think is funny when shipping wars start and people say they hate a pairing or even a friendship between two characters because they don't like one of the characters involved, I like Kurogane and Faye's dynamics, I just don't much care for Faye (and that's largely because I dated a girl way too much like him).

37, you're not alone.

I miss those days with all of my dried out little fandom heart. ;_;

38. I like both really but I've always preferred Tsubasa over Xxxholic.
Yes, I know Tsubasa has it's flaws, can be long and drag at times.
But I love it anyway.

Though I did feel bad for the fans during that monster break.
I almost forgot Xxxholic exsisted during that time. D:

I know it's irrational of me, but I can't help that I feel that way. Anyway, most of this was worded a bit poorly, as hate's a bit too strong for my case. As I've said I still read it, I just prefer HOLiC over Tsubasa and honestly haven't seen an impressively active fandom for it. I know people are always bitching about how they don't want their fandoms bigger, but I'd really like if HOLiC were as active and large as Tsubasa so there'd be some variety instead of the same old thing and more people to share a common love with.

8. Wow. You are made of total, unbelievable fail. There's gay Heroes fanfiction so that automatically makes the couple canon?

What?

10. No it doesn't make you a bad fan. Just a dishonest one.

12. Me, too.

13. I'm getting really tired of this martyr attitude that "OMG MY FRIENDZ WILL H8 MEEEEE" for admitting you like something. Grow a pair and realize that if your friends will hate you or burn you or crucify you or whatever melodramatic bullshit you seem to want to happen so you can be validated in your victimhood, they aren't your friends and perhaps you really WANT to feel that way.

17. Most people don't like hurting others, but if she couldn't hang with the criticism she asked for then it's her problem, not yours.

18. I'm tempted to de-anon myself just to offer you marriage options.

19. See 13.

21. There's nothing wrong with getting a spine and admitting that you've changed your mind about her art and maybe even apologizing to her for being a jerk about it. It might actually make you a better person.

23. See 18.

32. HYPOCRITE!

33. Cue wank from hardcore FFVII, compliation hating fans! Thanks for reinforcing the hate that many of us compliation fans suffer under since most compliation haters don't even take into consideration that we have PLAYED THE FUCKING GAME AND STILL LIKE THE COMPLIATIONS.

41. Let me get this straight, you think less of your friend because she doesn't have the same sense of humor you do?

21. Only problem with that is, she's made me eat my words in the past so I'd better just let her think I don't like her lest she prove me wrong.

And while we're talking about spines, lol @ your anonymous post. You're no better than me.

Oh my gosh, I agree so hard. Especially about the Digimon fics.

(Anonymous) 2007-11-19 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
24.) I've always found that movie incredibly dull and hate being forced into watching it. And since my roommate LOVES it, that happens a lot.

Slashing Othello is the only thing that makes my English Lit lessons bearable!
I hope I get an A* too

Running With Scissors was, IMHO, Al's weakest offering of the last 10 years. I'd worried he'd totally shark-jumped hard until Poodle Hat came out to make me smile again.

2. Writing one. Might not be up to your standards for 'good,' but I am writing one... Eventually. ^__^

28. I... hadn't intended to read that book ever. It sounded so depressing. But now I'm going to have to, JUST TO SEE THIS.

4.wait what. i think i know this person

We must write fic together. Othello slash is automatic win. Cassio should get dragged into it somehow. >D

12. Oh, hell yes.
