Snagged from a lot of people, That Meme Again

Give me a fandom (or a few) you know I know of and I'll tell you exactly what I think of:

1. The first character I first fell in love with
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer
7. The character I would shag anytime
8. The character I'd want to be like
9. The character I'd slap
10. A pairing that I love
11. A pairing that I despise


You can repeat the obvious choices I've done in other renditions of the meme, since it's been ages and there's a lot of new people around anyway.

1. The first character I first fell in love with: It's hard to say. Probably Sanji, but I did like Nami before him.

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Vivi ♥ And all of Alabasta, actually. Oh, and Robin, but I knew I'd like her after a while when she stopped being Miss All Sunday.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: I don't get the Lucci fans, as an antagonist he wasn't that interesting. Funny enough, when I first heard of Ace I thought I wasn't going to like him because he looked like dull fanservice meat, but I really liked him after his first appearance XD;

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: I don't know, who does the fandom hate? It's not a matter of love-hate, but there are some "annoying" characters I find amusing, like Buggy and Bon Clay.

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: I thought I was going to like Zoro better when I started reading, because he's a lot like Kurogane in Tsubasa, but then he didn't call my attention anymore.

6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer: It's not disliking, but I didn't get why all the OP fans I knew liked Tashigi so much. Now I'm more fond of her, after some rereadings, though. Coby at the beginning annoyed me, but he grew up so much.

7. The character I would shag anytime: Oh, I don't know. Sanji because he's good looking and he'd prepare breakfast :DDD I wouldn't say no to Kohza, though.

8. The character I'd want to be like: If I were half as awesome as any of the OP females... But if I had to choose, I wish I had Robin's wits (but without what it brought to her, that is)

9. The character I'd slap: I love to hate Crocodile.

10. A pairing that I love: Kohza/Vivi and Smoker/Hina.

11. A pairing that I despise: Anything with Chopper makes me cringe. Oh, and yaoi with Ace, because it's always either with Luffy or Smoker, and I really dislike any option.

Lol... dull fanservice meat XDD I dunno, was he that fanservice-y? He has acne :P

Oooh Kohza XD I think the scar does it for me XD

Yay for Robin! ♥ She's one of my favorite female characters.. ever!

If he's shirtless and has his back tattooed and dresses like a cowboy, he's fanservice meat XD (I dunno, my first contact with Ace was by rabid fangirls, so yeah, I'd say he is if he gets that reaction)

Kohza is really sexy when he's not abusing the hair gel XP And yup, the scar gives him a nice touch.

Robin is awesome! I wish I had a Robin icon, though.

Lol XD Gotta turn a blind eye on the acne eh? I mean, I like Ace. But I never thought he was hot :P

Robin needs more solo color spreads! She's always drawn really small or cut off by other characters :X

........... D:

*protects barrier against tomatoes*

1. The first character I first fell in love with: King Touya and High Priest Yukito! (...What?)

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Kurogane. He's pretty much, with the crossovers, the only reason I don't give up on the series' batshit.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Sakura. And the vampire twins. And any Syaoran. And any Tomoyo.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Kyle, ecause he might be a loser and a child-stealer, but he's pretty. And some people bash Soel, which makes baby Clow (...would that be Eriol?) cry.

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: I found façade!Fye amusing, and I liked his dynamics with Kurogane. Now I just can't stand his plot anymore, and if I say something nasty I get my flist to flame me because everyone loves it.

6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer: none.

7. The character I would shag anytime: Kurogane's dad, or Priest Yukito, or King Touya, or Fujitaka.

8. The character I'd want to be like: In that pile of angst? Kurogane. I wish I had his brand new patience to deal with all the batshit.

9. The character I'd slap: Fei Wang. He turns everything he touches in wangst and death. AND he has a lame personality for a villain. Learn from Crocodile, goddammit.

10. A pairing that I love: Clow!Touya/Yukito for gay, Kuro-papa/Kuro-mama for het, Amaterasu/Souma for yuri. One for each genre except asexual, but there isn't a lot of asexuals I like in TRC (well, there's Mokona, but the hell I'm shipping him with anyone seriously).

11. A pairing that I despise: Fye/Chii because the fans normally fail to see it's a creator/creation ship and only see the KAWAII!!1!!ichi. Kurogane/Tomoyo because it usually feels like the E/T of Tsubasa, and I really prefer his devotion to be bushido and gratitude and not Tw00 Wubb.

1. The first character I first fell in love with: Probably Aang because he was really cute in the first episode, with the hyperness and the penguins.

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Oh, that'd be Sokka.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: I've seen a lot of Azula fans, so probably that's it. And Yue, because I find her a bit plain for a character.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: I've seen Toph-bashing when she first showed up, because OMG she was so rude. DUDE.

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: I liked Katara better at the beginning, but then other characters called my attention more. I still find her cool, but her fans make me want to hang myself the few times I went to the main comm. I prefered Zuko at the ending of book 1 and beginning of book 2, but then he went back to be a bit pratty.

6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer: Probably Jet.

7. The character I would shag anytime: Like you said, but they're all teens or old people!

8. The character I'd want to be like: Iiiiiiiiroh.

9. The character I'd slap: Azula.

10. A pairing that I love: Sokka/Suki

11. A pairing that I despise: Zutara. Although the ship wars is turning me off Aang/Katara as well because they're also pretty wanky themselves.

Please keep in mind I have to rewatch the whole series, so I don't really remember a lot of minor characters.

1. The first character I first fell in love with: Lina. I mean, it's Lina!

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Probably Gourry. He's a dear.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: I don't know. I like all the main characters, and I don't remember well the ones that annoyed me. Probably Naga because I haven't seen the parts of the series with her, so I don't know how she's like.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Gourry again, who's bashed as stupid just because his anime version is absent-minded. Do people hate Filia? I thought she was neat for an OC.

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: None.

6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer: Martina was annoying at first, and then somewhere in the way she amused me.

7. The character I would shag anytime: Damn. Probably Gourry or Zel.

8. The character I'd want to be like: There are some things in Amelia I'd like for myself, such as the enthusiasm. But I'd also want Zelgadis' perseverance and Xelloss' cunningness (except I'd use it for less evil things)

9. The character I'd slap: Rezo, perhaps.

10. A pairing that I love: Lina/Gourry

11. A pairing that I despise: Lina/Zel

Uuuuuuuuuh, but there aren't really TRC plotholes that affect my views on CCS characters, because they normally don't have to do with them. Why would it matter TRC!Sakura's doings on CCS!Sakura? They're all different characters, even Rekort!Naoko reading in the library or Piffle!Yamazaki with his race commentary. The only CCS person who gets involved in this shit is Clow, and CLAMP hasn't talked about his involvement with details yet.

1. The first character I first fell in love with: Yue. Before the final judgment, I was a casual watcher. Then I started watching the anime every day so I could see what happened to him. Yeah, a bit shallow.

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Eriol, followed really, really close by Clow. Before his intentions came out, he amused me because he reminded me of Xelloss from Slayers for some weird reason. Then I liked him better, and after rewatchings and rereadings I slowly became obsessed.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Tomoyo. She's too flawless to me to feel sympathy or interest in her.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: The fans either hate or love Kaho and Nakuru for the wrong, biased reasons. I think they're adorable in canon, so I'm probably one of the 5 persons in the planet.

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: I liked Syaoran better in the Clow card arc. I still think he's cute, but between the fangirls and his role and personality becoming more focused on being the love interest, I kinda backed away a bit.

6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer: Kaho. I think the aloof characterization of her in anime and the manga spoilers made me loathe her in an irrational way. Then I reread the manga and I fell for her.

7. The character I would shag anytime: Clow, and Eriol with an adult body (...which is kind of Clow again), Fujitaka (...ditto, but brown-haired). From people closer to my age, probably Touya.

8. The character I'd want to be like: It's gonna be so weird, but I wish I had Yamazaki's imagination.

9. The character I'd slap: Fei Wang Reed Wait, wrong fandom. I don't think I'd slap anyone in this series.

10. A pairing that I love: Touya/Yukito

11. A pairing that I despise: Eriol/Tomoyo because the fandom turned me off in an awful, bad-touchy way.

Kaho. I think the aloof characterization of her in anime and the manga spoilers made me loathe her in an irrational way. Then I reread the manga and I fell for her.

I think part of anime!Kaho's problem is that, for all the extra screentime she gets in the anime, she doesn't get fleshed out as much as in the manga. In the anime, almost all of her scenes are "I am IMPORTANT and I KNOW about the Cards" or telepathy with Touya. The manga has more variety for her scenes, so you get to see more of her personality.

1. The first character I first fell in love with: Ed. I like teen main characters the best when they start grumpy.

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: The Xing characters. Which reminds me, I HAVE to apply for Ling's fanlisting D:

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Besides Envy, who's normally my answer here, Kimbley. I agree Kimbley's sly ways are amusing, but I can't get over his psychopathy in Ishval.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: I love Winry since the beginning, and the bashers tire me so much. I'm amazed Lan Fan isn't more bashed (she was when she said she'd get better in half a year, but not because she might be in love with Ling, whut)

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: I can't think right now in one.

6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer: Scar. I've grew attached to him.

7. The character I would shag anytime: manga!Scar's brother, without question. I wouldn't say no to manga!Hohenheim or a manga!restored!non-jailbait!Al (not Mei's vision, though XD) either, but my Ishval boyfriend is so nerdy and sexy!

8. The character I'd want to be like: Izumi XD

9. The character I'd slap: I love to hate Bradley, but I'd still slap Envy because Bradley is just a better antagonist, and he has OMGWTF PRIDE on his side.

10. A pairing that I love: Ling/Lan, EdWin, Al/Mei

11. A pairing that I despise: Elricest, because it's not my kink and it cheapens Ed and Al's dynamics.

1. The first character I first fell in love with: Watanuki because he's the first one to show up ^_^

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: From the main characters, Yuuko, but I kinda knew I'd love her anyway. So perhaps the warashi girls and the kitsunes in general.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Doumeki. Don't get me wrong, he's a nice guy and all, but he lacks something for me to like. That, and some of his fangirls creep me out.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: I think a couple of people bashed Zashiki Warashi for having more screentime on the anime, and that P.I.G were saying pushing for het. I call bullshit.

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: Nothing in this fandom.

6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer: Himawari. As soon as she got backstory and backbone (no pun intended), she became awesome.

7. The character I would shag anytime: I want Watanuki as my husband/wife/whatever. But for a one night stand, I'd be a lesbian/bi for Yuuko any day.

8. The character I'd want to be like: Some time ago I would've said Yuuko, but I don't want to anymore. She has enough shit in her life to handle, and the recent CLAMP chapters confuse the crap outta me. So I pick Ame Warashi, because she's a really cool spirit, or a young Haruka.

9. The character I'd slap: ...Fei Wang Reed? Sometimes I want to hit Watanuki in the head slightly, but in a good sense.

10. A pairing that I love: Clow/Yuuko. Yeah, it totally counts.

11. A pairing that I despise: Yuuko/Watanuki, because I'm not into mentor-disciple, and personally I can't find it even hot. He's like the son she never had or something.

1. The first character I first fell in love with: ...Link. But really, he's so pretty as an adult in the official art!

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: I'm not sure. I'm fond of several characters, but I didn't grew attached to most of them.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: No fucking clue, I avoid fandom like the plague.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Same.

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: I liked Saria better at the beginning.

6. The character I used to dislike but don't any longer: I stopped disliking Mido after reading the manga.

7. The character I would shag anytime: adult!Link, duh.

8. The character I'd want to be like: Sheik, because s/he's so ninja and cryptic.

9. The character I'd slap: child!Ruto, because she was so prissy and annoyed me a lot inside Jabu-Jabu's belly.

10. A pairing that I love: Actually, I slashed Link with Sheik before I knew who s/he was and the fact it's a girl in disguise XDDD

11. A pairing that I despise: I was never so fond of Link/Saria, especially after understanding that Saria most probably is decades or centuries older.
