100 Questions for X
Translated by Jeldi
(original listing from S-PLEIADES)
1. What is your handle-name?
Kirisame
2. What reason did you pick that handle-name?
Japanese for drizzle. It's got nothing to do with X O_o
3. What would you say of your enthusiasm for answering these questions?
Erm...
4. How far along is your X calendar?
I have scans for the 2003 calendar *gets shot*
5. How long have you known about X?
Since... 2001, I guess. I found some scans and drooled.
6. What occasion started you reading X?
It was CLAMP and I was just downloading CCS. It looked nice and creepy, so it was appealing.
7. What volume of X have you read up to?
18. Some of 19.
8. What volume of X are you waiting for?
*sobs* Stupid Mokona! Draw more!
9. Do you buy Asuka?
No. Where could I? And besides, I could only follow DNAngel from there...
10. Of the Ten no Ryuu, who is your favorite?
Kamui. But I love them ALL ^__^
11. Of the Chi no Ryuu, who is your favorite?
Kakyou ^o^ He's the only one who's not a psychopath XD I like Nataku, he/she's sweet.
12. Excluding the Ten no Ryuu and Chi no Ryuu, who is your favorite?
Can I say Hokuto? Hinoto is creepy, Kanoe is a ho and Kotori... well, bleh ><
13. Out of all X, who is your favorite?
Don't make me choose ;_;
14. Which two characters are your favorite pairing/couple?
Hmmm... Kakyou x Hokuto, Sei x Subaru, Karen x Aoki, Sorata x Arashi. Yep.
15. Which is your favorite volume?
8 was good. 15 and 16 were sad.
16. Which scene was the most memorable scene for you?
Seishirou's death, Nataku's death, that flashback explaining Hokuto's death. little!Fuuma licking his fingers from his mom's blood (yuck, traumitized).
17. Which short line was the most memorable line and who said it?
Hmmm... "I choose you, neechan" from Sora was cool. "I'm your twin star" from Fuuma for shock factor. And of course, "The future is not decided" bybimbo girl Kotori.
18. Which volume's character story was your favorite?
All of them are special and great ^^
19. Have you seen the movie? Feel free to tell your impressions.
Tsk... It's too fast. And that was butchery, and I'm not only talking about plot. Everybody but Kamui dying? Dear God, not even South Park does that. Thank God I met Kakyou after watching it, or I would've complain a lot. Oh, but Forever Love as ending... <3
20. Were there any cast voices in the movie that you though were sharp/perfect?
I saw it dubbed O_o I do have it fansubbed, so when I watch that version, I'll let you know. But I bet I'll love Kamui's voice since I love the seiyuu XD
21. If you had made the movie, what kind of movie would it be?
Pst, I'm not the right person to think about that XP Maybe introducing Subaru and Seishirou before they kill each other? ¬¬U
22. Have you seen the TV anime? Feel free to tell your impressions?
I like it. Character designs are weird for my taste, though. And the ending was better, but a little cheesy.
23. Were there any cast voices in the TV anime that you though were sharp/perfect?
All of them are perfect the way they are. Kamui's is not that good, though.
24. If you had made the TV anime, what kind of series would it be?
More Subaru scenes. C'mon, you know you want them ^_~
25. Between the original work, the movie, and the TV anime, which is your favorite?
Manga ownz j00.
26. Are there any other X fans around you?
Some of my MSN contacts are rabid X fans. And besides, I moderate a X forum in an otaku board ^____^
27. Have you told anyone you know that you like X?
I've told anyone I like CLAMP. Does that count?
Cast and Characters
28. What was your first impression of Kamui's first statement "Only him, I will kill".
O_oU Well, his eyes are cute ^^u
29. Actually, did you notice that Subaru from TB is in the above scene? Furthermore, how long did it take you to notice?
I knew he was gonna show up before I saw him, so I got spoiled.
30. What do you say to the fact that the end of the century's "Promised Day of 1999" was quite a while ago?
They started in 1992, so it's not like it had passed anything in that moment.
31. How long do you think Hinoto's hair is?
Past her ankles, I guess. I remembered the main character from Garcia Márquez's "Del Amor y Otros Demonios" with this question.
32. Where do you think Arashi's sword always exist?
In her soul? In a parallel universe? O.o
33. After their father died, from where do you think Fuuma and Kotori were being supplied their living funds?
Erm... temple donations. Or maybe dark!Fuuma became a kaitou XD
34. What do you think Inuki is made up of?
From the same substance of a shikigami. Ha!
35. The sakura tree holds a presense within Seishirou but from where do you think all of the sakura blossoms come from?
From the same place the flying, symbolic feathers come from XP
36. What did you say when Fuuma went evil/mad?
"CLAMP surprise factor! Yay! Kill her!"
37. What did you say at Kotori's death?
"Yay! Kill her!"
38. What did you say when Kamui's personality changed?
*shrugs* Dunno, but now I'm saying "dude, you're becoming Harry Potter, but more useless."
39. After that (Kamui's decision), do you think Fuuma continued to go to school? Furthermore, where do you think he is living now?
He's too cool for school B) He lives under Kanoe's bed, reading Yuuto's porn magazines XD
40. Fuuma before or after his awakening (as Dark Kamui), which do you prefer/like?
After. I don't really fancy dark!Fuuma, but normal!Fuuma is boring.
41. What did you say about the enshrinement location for the Shinken?
"OMGBBQ CLAMP mangas are pasted on!!11 Yay!". Jokes aside, the pedestal looks like the Master Sword one in Zelda OoT.
42. Who do you think pays the rent for the place where Kamui's group is staying?
Nokoru? Or maybe Subaru's got some money from his onmyouji jobs.
43. Why do you think Sorata wears his own clothes (not a uniform) around CLAMP campus?
He's a wacko with Osaka accent, don't question his ways.
44. Say something about Saiki-kun.
Poor guy.
45. Inuki or Ko-inuki, which do you prefer/like?
They're both cute.
46. Do you really think that Fuuma and Seishirou went on a gourmet tour through Tokyo?
I can see that XDDDDDD
47. Kusanagi said that "Fuuma looks like everyone, and yet he also looks different than everyone" but, who do you think he (Fuuma) looks the most like?
Touya Kinomoto? OK, I'll shut up.
48. Furthermore, who do you think is the one he looks least like?
Kusanagi, hands down.
49. What do you think Seishirou said to Subaru at the very end?
"I wanted to be killed by you". Dunno. But my theory would imply he had feelings for him, ne?
50. When he becomes a Chi no Ryuu, the hair style, etc are similar to long ago (TB) Subaru, but which (style) do you prefer/like better?
Don't make me choose. I just drool by the mention.
51. How did you feel about the kissing scene suddenly turning to the bed scene between Sorata and Arashi?
O_o Aren't they going too fast? The guy is *hurt*, he's *bleeding*.
52. Up until now, how many hotels has Yuuto gone to do you think?
Hotels or motels? XDDDDDD
53. What did you say at Nataku's death?
;_____________________; <---
54. Who do you not want to die (or didn't want to die)?
Karen T_T CLAMP is so going to kill her... someday.
55. Do you think that Kamui's father will show up?
This is *not* turning into Fullmetal Alchemist, kthnkz.
56. Where do you think that Kamui had obtained his recent jacket from? Furthermore, now what is he going to do (about getting another)?
A birthday present from [insert TnR here]? I can't picture him going shopping.
57. Where do you think Subaru and Seishirou got the coats they are wearing?
Shhh! Don't ask, that's actually a onmyoujitsu secret!
58. Out of all the Ten no Ryuu and Chi no Ryuu, who do you think has the most money?
Maybe Subaru, the Sumeragis are loaded. But don't understimate Kanoe's ho incomes working in the goverment.

Fuuma. Nobody can match him.
60. Who would you poke fun at? (very loose trans)
Come again? o_o
