No beloved pairings or least favorite characters?

/grins Not a fan of trains?

I can sort of see crazy!Edea/Seifer. It's squicktastic for me but I think it could make sense in canon.

How about Rurouni Kenshin now? (I will totally keep going as long as you're responding!)
nagia: (rk; a/m; catch me on the ground)

[personal profile] nagia 2010-02-22 03:48 pm (UTC)(link)
(Thank you so much, you have no idea how boring this is. ♥ )

Trains are okay, I guess? I'm a bigger fan of boats. And I can't really get into ZOMG BELOVED OTP territory with this game, and I only have two least favorite characters: Seifer and Cid.

And yeah, crazyEdea/Seifer is definitely squicktastic.

1. The character I first fell in love with: Sano.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Kenshin!
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Uh, no idea. I kind of love them all!
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Misao, naturally. Everybody hates the genki girl.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: Nope, haven't fallen out of love with anybody.
6. The character I would shag anytime: Dear god, it's like a five-way tie between Misao, Kaoru, Megumi, Saitou, and Aoshi.
7. The character I'd want to be like: I do wish I could be as subtle and cunning as Megumi.
8. The character I'd slap: Shishio.
9. A pairing that I love: Besides the obvious, I do really like Kenshin and Kaoru for each other. They are like the Cecil/Rosa of RK.
10. A pairing that I despise: Aoshi/Kaoru. (Aoshi/Megumi makes a level of sense, considering that there is a kind of tension between them, even if it's not the right kind. Aoshi/Kaoru? Seriously, dude, wth? WHERE DID YOU COME UP WITH THIS IDEA? They rarely speak, and when they do, Aoshi is basically like "[PLOT STUF] kthxbai".)
11. Favorite character: Oh god, three-way tie between Misao, Sano, and Saitou.
12. My five favorite characters: Misao, Sano, Saitou, Aoshi, Hannya.
13. My five least favorite characters: Shishio, Soujirou, Kanryuu, Pirate Queen Shura, and Gein
14. Which character I am most like: Flip a coin: Misao's energy and expressiveness, Kaoru's ability to angst.
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: I have a really in-depth headcanon built up for the Oniwabanshuu.

I think I dislike Aoshi/Megumi more because I think a lot of it is entirely unkind to Misao. It's the Vincent/Tifa or Auron/Lulu of RK. Because the genki girl is too immature to be in a relationship or some bullshit like that. I see it more of a backlash pairing than people actually liking it for what it is, I guess.

Mm. FFVII.

[personal profile] nagia 2010-02-22 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Hurm, you know, that honestly never occurred to me? Then again, I've never tried to read an Aoshi/Megumi fic.



1. The character I first fell in love with: Yuffie.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Tifa.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Reno. Or Shelke, if you count DoC.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Yuffie.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: Haven't fallen out of love with anyone.
6. The character I would shag anytime: Tie between Yuffie and Shalua.
7. The character I'd want to be like: Either Shalua or Aeris.
8. The character I'd slap: Lucrecia. Lucrecia, Lucrecia, Lucrecia.
9. A pairing that I love: Vincent/Yuffie!
10. A pairing that I despise: Vincent/Tifa. It can send me into incoherent rages, especially if it's surprise VinTi.
11. Favorite character: Yuffie!
12. My five favorite characters: Yuffie, Cid, Rex XIII, Barret, and Shalua.
13. My five least favorite characters: Lucrecia, Sephiroth, Hojo, Gast, Reno.
14. Which character I am most like: Stict OGC Yuffie.
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: I didn't like Aeris on my first playthrough. Or my second. And to this day, she always ends up dying with my damn Dragon Armlet equpped.

A lot of the justifcation I've seen for the pair is that Aoshi needs someone as ~mature~ as he is. Which aside from the lolarious idea of Aoshi or Megumi being such incredibly ~mature~ people, is saying Misao isn't good enough because she isn't serious all the time, like good ~mature~ adults. (Fandom has sort of made me hate the word mature.)

Hm. Gungrave?
nagia: (gungrave; brandon; night been unkind)

[personal profile] nagia 2010-02-22 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
God, yeah, that's a total load of tripe! Okay, now I'm beginning to despise that pairing.

Jesus. Yeah, fandom needs the word "mature" taken away.



1. The character I first fell in love with: Brandon Heat.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Harry McDowell.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Not really sure of the fandom darlings, but I have a real love/hate relationship with Brandon.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Not really sure who's popular or not.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: Maria.
6. The character I would shag anytime: Mika, if she were a bit older. Bear or Sherry Walken.
7. The character I'd want to be like: young!Brandon.
8. The character I'd slap punch: Harry McDowell
9. A pairing that I love: Grave/Mika.
10. A pairing that I despise: That entire Brandon-Maria-Big Daddy triangle. What the hell, everyone.
11. Favorite character: A toss-up between Brandon and Mika.
12. My five favorite characters: young!Brandon, Mika, Harry McDowell, Sherry Walken, Bear Walken
13. My five least favorite characters: older!Brandon/Grave, Harry, Bear, Balladbird Lee, Bunji.
14. Which character I am most like: I don't think I'm very like any of them. Maybe younger Brandon?
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: I only love Harry because of the tragedy.

[personal profile] leviathanmirror 2010-02-22 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, yes it does.

I'm sure I'm going to hell but I pretty much started shipping Grave/Mika in the first episode. I thiiink I got halfway through. I was at the point where Brandon and Big Daddy were becoming friends maybe? I remember them going fishing.

How about Resident Evil (entire series)?
nagia: (ffxii; basch; viva la revolution)

[personal profile] nagia 2010-02-22 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
That's only the first quarter, really. There's something like 27 episodes, and Brandon becomes Grave in... episode 15/episode 16, I believe. Somewhere in the teens.

But yeah. For some reason I ship sweetyounghappy!Brandon/Maria, olderwisercynical!Brandon/Harry, and Grave/Mika. I don't even... It's kinda insane.



1. The character I first fell in love with: Leon Kennedy back in RE2.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: ....Ada Wong.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Ada Wong.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Ashley Graham.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: As of Resident Evil: Degeneration, my love for Leon and Claire has diminished liek whoah. Especially Leon.
6. The character I would shag anytime: Oh dear lord, I have to choose one? Toss-up between Claire Redfield and Ashley Graham.
7. The character I'd want to be like: Ada Wong. She might be vicious and cutthroat and backstabby and secretly attached, but she is also unleaded kickass in a can.
8. The character I'd slap: Albert Wesker. And Dr. Birkin.
9. A pairing that I love: Leon/Ashley.
10. A pairing that I despise: Leon/Ada. It's just really not good for them, I don't think. Then again, I don't have much patience for super complicated are-they-or-aren't-they sorts of deals, and when you throw in five kinds of betrayal and six years of one believing the other is dead... Bleh.
11. Favorite character: Toss-up between Claire Redfield and Ashley Graham.
12. My five favorite characters: Claire Redfield, Ashley Graham, Chris Redfield, Leon Kennedy, Rebecca Chambers.
13. My five least favorite characters: Ada Wong*, Albert Wesker, Ramon Saddler, Dr. Birkin/Nemesis, and Jack Krauser who is a CREEPY CREEPY MAN.
14. Which character I am most like: Oh god. In a zombie situation, I'd be very like RE2!Leon/RE4!Ashley, though in day-to-day life I'm probably a lot like Claire?
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: I simultaneously ship Ashley/Leon and Leon/Claire. Hardcore. I don't even know how I manage it, because most fans usually pick one or the other.

*Just beause I love Ada the least does not mean I do not love her at all.
