Fandom Laws, Irasto Corolary:
If a book series is big in Japan, there will be at least one union/webring. If you're lucky enough, after a lot of surfing, you'll get to at least one Japanese site with *good* fanart (not only doodles in oekakis, pretty stuff that makes you drool and stare.) And chances are, the links section will have a 70% of nice links.

Guess what I did today. Not study that much (it's not my fault, my concentration falls down with PMS synthoms!) I almost finish the Howl/Sophie fanlisting, and I had a urge for Japanese fanart hunting. My findings for Howl's Moving Castle:

Ruthia
Memewo
Pingos
Piece

Some of them are book-only, and others are both book and anime-based. I like the book ones better, since there Sophie is red-haired like she should be XD

Hmmm, I need to make Howl icons.

Edit: seen today in a community...
Person 2: "Yeah it is!! My fav couple is Sakura and Syaoran, but who doesn't like them?"
Person 1: "Yes!! Everyone love Sakura x Syaoran. They're just SO cute together that you can't not like them. ^_^ *squeal*"
Me: *raises hand* I do not love them... And besides, I don't think it makes grammatical sense to write "can't not", but that's just a hunch.

Of course, I didn't post that as then I would be the wanker. Again.

Eriol/Yamazaki is more plausible

I am SO glad I didn't have to be the first one to say that. XD (I was tempted to say that to a couple of E/T rabid shippers once, but I was afraid they'd take it as a challenge...)

I do love S/S, though. In canon (the real one, not TRC). But I can't stand 1)the badfic 2)the fans who think CCS is only about that. On the other hand, I have nothing against the cuteness and the sugar. ^_^

I was fine with the cuteness at first... I don't know, maybe I became more cynical? That, or the fandom got worse and I started hating the cliches. Quién sabe.
