I'm impatient so I'm just completing this meme now. Hee.

1. Trigun
Pairing: Vash and Meryl. Guessed by, let's face it, everyone.
Character: Totally Meryl. Also totally transparent.

2. X-Files
Pairing: Mulder/Scully. Hey, they work, even if I do have a passing fondness for Scully/Doggett, because much as I love him, Mulder will always be a Punk. [livejournal.com profile] offscreen got this first cuz hey, she was there!
Character: Scully. It's in my OBSSE roots. Drama notwithstanding, I defy anyone to find a fan group that did as much cool shit.

3. Get Smart Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] buttercup022
Pairing: Max/99, of course! Or maybe Max/That King Guy he looked just like if I wanna get kinky.
Character: Max so funny.

4. Veronica Mars
Pairing: I don't ship much for this show, but Veronica/Weevil is fun. I don't really get the Logan/Veronica lust, but I really hate the cheesy "LoVe" ship name. Death.
Character: Everyone. Lilly?

5. Utena Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] chaosblue

I've never seen that ship name. OMG. DEATH.

"Ironic" cheesy is okay, but this is like months-old moldy skank cheese rotting in a broken refrigerator.

Seriously. Ugh.

yay! It seems like so few non-stupid fans like Touga, and that makes me sad. It's all "omg hes hottiezzzzz!!!~!" (actually...just like his in-series fangirls, how about that?) I'm embarrassed to admit that I like the smarmy bastard, they're so irritating.

...but then I like SKU het, so I'm kind of um, on the wrong channel here.

If any of my fandoms had a shipping name THAT irritating I'd kill them. Urgh. (That show looks good; I hope it'll be out on DVD eventually.)

As much as I love Touga in the anime, and I do, I have to admit it was the manga version that kickstarted my love. Because the thing--when he's following her aruond and--HAHAHAHAHA!

And I'm not a huge shipper for Utena but I do kinda like Touga/Utena because it's so unexpected for him.

I've heard conflicting things about the manga, so I haven't caught up past the first book. I've heard it's good; I've heard the mangaka is terrible; I really shouldn't listen to the fandom because many of them are idiots. Eh.

But it's an exceedingly rare anime fandom that doesn't treat its manga like the Second Coming, so that seemed like a red flag. I should catch up, though. :/ This is a mark on the "yea" side. Innnnteresting.

The manga's not that bad. It definitely helped me understand a few more things about Akio and Dios b/c I read the end before I saw the end. The artist is where I think it breaks down. Pretty but blah, and not a lot of variety in facial expression. In general I prefer the anime but I certainly don't regret buying the manga. Often I'm someone who likes the anime better anyway.
