Couple rant meme, part 1

You're still on time to ask for one, commenting here.

For [livejournal.com profile] elihice:

Eriol/Tomoyo. Their love doesn't exist, get over it.
Ugh, where do I begin. What I hate about this ship is the fact everyone takes it for canon. Even worse, almost every fanfiction about them is so OOC I want to cry. And people tend to forget Tomoyo likes a girl. Yeah, sure, she could be bi, but she doesn't bloody notice the guy who sits behind her, so she's not interested!
Besides, most people just do that for the "let's pair the second important bishoujo up so she won't end up alone" trend. And what is fucking wrong with not being in a relationship, I ask the preteens?
Because you know, there should be real chemistry around the couple. "OMG their rich and smart and their hair color is teh same!!1!" is not a good excuse.
And Sonomi would kill him if he lays a hand on her daughter. Because, you know, he's half Fujitaka.

Ishida/Orihime. The dorky way is better than the heroic way.
You ask me if I like it or not. The truth is, I'm not sure. My first reaction to it was "greaaaaat, they're pairing the left, unloved bishoujo with the spectacle dork! Where have I heard this before ¬¬?"
But then Kubo pulls the Orihime speech about Ichigo's happiness. Man, I admit I wanted to hate Orihime like I do with every cutesy, fanservicey girl. But I discovered then I won't be able to, ever. She's like Tohru Honda with boobs, dammit: I can't hate her. And Uryuu's face! It killed me! It was so obvious, so canon; she fancies her and wants to see her happy.
I truly want to see my dork happy. So yeah, I... wouldn't mind if they end up together anymore. And I've thought hard. She's a klutz, sure, but she's not a bimbo; she's the third on their class! She's hard-working and kind, also. And her imagination... yes, it IS dorky. She's also a dork!
Aha, she's good enough for my King of Dorkiness. I approve it. I'm not sure it's an OTP yet, but it's... sort of cute. Um, forget I said that, I'll deny it.

For [livejournal.com profile] nienna_m:

Harry/Luna. They'd need a lot of therapy.
Well, I don't know. It's just I don't ship Harry, period. I believe he's too emotionally unstable to get into a relationship, the poor thing. But anyway.
I adore Harry and I adore Luna. They're my male and female favorite characters. Still, they're just getting to know each other, so it's too soon to tell if they're meant to each other. At least, they should be good friends, after that OotP infamous scene. They need more interaction so I can make up my mind.
So far, I'm liking it more (way more!) than Harry/Hermione but a bit less than Harry/Ginny (which sort of convinces me, sort of).

Tomorrow: Royai and Clow/Yuuko. And anything else you suggest me.

Supiez: What is up.

I thought.. from your post on TAFL, that you liked HP! '..is for fandom rants and memes (my fandoms are normally CLAMPverse, HP and Bleach, just so you know)..'

;x Either way, we both adore Bleach & CLAMP, ^^

Yeah, but with so little news, I won't be able to talk about HP until... um, August?

That's what happens when you live in a town where you have no idea how to get books in English.

Sure, I do talk a bit about my several fandoms. However, Tsubasa and HOLiC take most of my fangirlish time.

I'll add you now.
