I'm talking about Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE, the manga. Yes, it is shonen just like the anime [ Tsubasa Chronicle ] but the manga is very different from the anime.

Lmao.
Besides, it may be labeled shonen but this is CLAMP we're talking about. I don't think they give a shit about what genre their stories get classified into. Besides, CLAMP couples don't generally have gender. I mean sure, the characters have genders but the love between characters has nothing to do with what they have or don't have hanging between their legs. Besides, in TRC they have featured many of their past homosexual/bisexual characters and homosexual couples. Seishirou and Subaru, Touya and Yukito, Kendappa and Souma, and Fuuma and Kamui have all been featured in the manga, their romances still intact. CLAMP's version of love is not held back by genre.

I've never seen the Kenshin OVA's so I can't really say much. But I always kind of liked Kaoru. But Yahiko was always my favorite.

I'm sorry, you're reading too much into it. There is no way that can happen. They are merely friends and that's that.

How much of Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE have you read?
Are you familiar with many other CLAMP works and how they canonize their couples?

If you said no to either of these questions than you have no room to talk. The way the relationship between Kurogane and Fai is developing in the later manga chapters of Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE is going down the road of CLAMP's version of canon.
Actually, Ryu's right. There's a thing called "fanservice".

With anime couples, for some reason... It's difficult finding an actual good pairing. In shounen anime, it's normally the girl seeming unfit or that they should remain friends, or the guy being too wimpy for the girl. In bishoujo anime, namely the ones based off galge, it's normally the guy being unfit for the girl (or any of the girls) or another girl would've been more suitable.

There are probably a few in the back of my head that I like and are not coming to mind now, but... I guess my favorite pairing would be Chikane and Himeko from Kannazuki no Miko despite how shitty the series was. Another would be Kenshin and Tomoe from the Kenshin OVAs, and maybe Kokonoe Rin and Kagami Kuro from Kojika, since that's just... really adorable.

How is Kurogane and Fai's relationship fanservice? Their relationship is not the least bit fanservice like. Fanservie is stuff like Legal Drug, but really, how can something as deep, raw and emotional like their relationship be fanservice, especially in such a dark and angsty series like TRC?

Meh, I'm not too fond of many shonen series, there's a few I like but otherwise I tend to stick to other genres.

<3 Chikane and Himeko were great, but I agree, the series was quite pointless itself. I'm not familiar with the other two. ^-^;

The title says all.
Just post your favorite fruit.

Watermelon.

Ah, I see. Well regardless, they sound like a very interesting couple/ship.
=D

Oh! And how could I have possibly forgotten this couple; Yuuri and Wolfram from Kyou Kara Maou!? Their relationship is just plain funny, but when it really boils down to it their romance is quite sweet.

And while I'm blathering, I can blab about Syaoran and Sakura from Cardcaptor Sakura and Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE. Their relationship is a classic for me, CCS [ along with Pokemon ] was my very first anime/manga so SyaoSaku holds a special place in my heart as does Touya x Yukito from CCS as well, their relationship was just as sweet. ^__^ And then from Sailor Moon, sheesh, Haruka and Michiru have been a favorite of mine for as long as I can remeber... <33

H'okay, so this game can be rather interesting but it is loads of fun and very easy to play. To play "In my pants" you simply type the title of a song, any song, and then add the words "In my pants" after the song title. Here is an example:

"Oops I did it again... In my pants!"

xD
See, rather odd but once everyone gets going and posts all those weird song titles we can all laugh like the lunatics we are! Enjoy!

Well I've got from now until the convention to work on it and the others, so I'll probably chose the splash page one. The one on the cover is really complex, and I doubt many people would actually recognize him as Fai. xD So I'll probably go with that splash page. But my mind is subject to change.

Kay, that's fine. My mind is subject to change so yeah. For now that works. Thanks! ^__^

-dances- I can't wait till my copy of CLAMP in Wonderland 2 comes in the mail!! I also can't wait for Tsubasa: Tokyo REVELATIONS to come out. =3 Ah yes, the joys of CLAMP. <3 -cough- Sorry if I'm drifting off topic... >>;

#40

As of now, I'm still undecided, however, I'm pretty sure I'll show off my Fai outfit at the gathering. But guess what, yet another problem! xD I'm now not sure if I want to do the volume nineteen cover art of Fai or the Fai from this splash. >>;

Decisions, decisions!! Anyone have any input? Which one do you guys think I should do?
