I agree with Este: too fucking soon
I started watching Gurren Lagann. Then I stopped at episode 3 when I realized my favorite character was... yes, the one who dies early. NOT ON, MAN. Because I obviously know what happens, and I don't want to see it. Bleagh. I pass, not because of what happens itself, but because in my (perhaps bad) experience with that kind of event and that kind of dynamics with the main character sup HikaGo I never, ever, ever can get into the rest. And that's pretty much all the anime.
Man, I know I sound like a prat. But see, that's the only character I like so far. So unless I can be sure a character that I can dig will pop out...? I'm doubting I can enjoy it as much as you rest do. No, I also doubt I can like post-timeskip!Simon, or how the plot advances afterwards.
Sorry for sounding so bitter D: I really tried. I will watch the rest just to see how it turns out anyway, but ugh.
A meme I snatched from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
haro.
List the first five OTPs that come to mind and then click the link to answer the questions:
Okay, from the top of my head.
1. Clow/Yuuko (CLAMP)
2. Touya/Yukito (CLAMP)
3. Ling/Lan Fan (FMA)
4. Howl/Sophie (Howl's Moving Castle)
5. Lina/Gourry (Slayers)
1. When did you first fall in love with ship number 1? (Clow/Yuuko)
It started as a crack pairing when reading volume one from her faces while talking to him, in this "LOL maybe she was his ex XD" kind of way. Then volume two showed they worked togetherand had babies and it kind of made lots of sense. But the real turning point was the Soel and Larg stories: it all went downhill because the crack was as canon as it can get! :D
2. When did you fall in love with ship number 5? (Lina/Gourry)
Episode 1, baby. Even if he was all "awww a little girl, let me prote-- holy crap, you just destroyed the whole town O_o". But the thing is, even if he knows Lina doesn't really need a bodyguard, and that sheis batshit crazy wanted to snatch his sword? He sticked around.
3.What is your favorite moment of ship number 3? (Ling/Lan)
When they faced Bradley. But I also liked when they were against Gluttony and Envy, and the time he made her thank Al for her new mask because it was cute.
4. What will the ship be if you take the boy from ship 2 and the girl from ship 1 and mesh them? If one or both of the ships are slash, then pick and choose.
Yuuko/Touya?! That-- that's wrong. In any dimension, that's wrong. I could only like Yuuko/Yukito if it's Clow!Yukito. Actually, that would be kind of nifty~ They already know each other, and both are moon-based magic.
5. Vice versa.
DO NOT WANT! THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH D: FACES TO EXPRESS HOW DO NOT WANT THAT IS. IN ANY DIMENSION.I suppose Clow/Yukito is the least worse, but still, no thanks.
6. What's your favorite moment for ship 4? (Howl/Sophie)
Are you kidding me? The whole book is gold. The green slime wars, the weed killer wars, the suit wars, the bantering... All. Gold. And there's also the honest wind part, which I weirdly find more romantic than the ending. There's also the scene in Castle in the Air when they reunite: it made me so fucking happy, and it was pretty much dysfunctional if you think about it.
7. How long was there between the time you got into the fandom and the time you started shipping ship number 3? (Ling/Lan)
Um. YEARS. Because the characters didn't exist yet and shit.
8. When did you start shipping ship number 4? (Howl/Sophie)
Um, I think it's pretty obvious they were gonna be canon, but the green slime scene at the movie probably did it for me. (Although I think that, if book!Sophie had to deal with nekkid Howl like anime!Sophie, she'd be less flustered and more CONFOUND IT HOW SHAMELESS IS THAT HAIR ON HIS BUTT?!)
9. Take three random people from three of the ships and create an OT3?
Let's see... Yuuko/Lina/Sophie would destroy entire worlds XDDD Shit, how scary. And I'm not sure Lina could stand the sight of Yuuko's boobs without blowing shit up. Let's try again with less doom.
Lina/Gourry/Yukito, because it'd only bring doom to restaurant owners. Yue wouldn't like it much, but his powers could be cool to have in an Epic Battle Against Evil, and he could be BFF with Zelgadis or something.
And I'm cheating and including someone who's not in the list, but Clow!Touya/Ling/Vivi (from One Piece) would be extremely made of awesome.
10. Rank your OTPs in order.
Oh. They already are in order.
