I think I shall call him Chaz. Or Gareth.

Or Gavin!

See, that's why I like Shirosaki. It even plays on KT's SUPER INSANE color-meaning fetish. XD

[jaina.livejournal.com]

I don't mind Shirosaki, but even that has a faint undertone of "ho ho ho aren't we clever for using this?" that grates. But I'll take it over Ogihci, that's for damn sure.

Waitaminute, you mean KT's usage of color theory *isn't* "OH HO HO HO I ARE SOOO KLEVAR!!!"? *snorfle*

Either that or "OH HO HO HO I ARE A ARTEEST!"

*grins* It's not quite THAT bad. (TouSHIIROU and JuSHIROU YES WE GET IT KT) But a lot of his symbolism comes in the name kanji, which is actually fairly subtle since depending on your level of reading, even Japanese readers might miss things.

If Japanese readers (or, hell, the human race in general) missing things were an indication of genius, then Kunihiko Ikuhara is giving God a run for His money. XDDD

Kunihiko Ikuhara IS a genius. A mad genius.

I want to respond in so many ways to the Ikuhara vs. God thing, but any way I go at it, I end up converting to Kunihikism. *sigh*

Also, Ogihci gives me hives. Just sayin'.

[jaina.livejournal.com]

Then you shouldn't have slept with him.

*snort* Well, it's better than what Aizen gave your mom...

[jaina.livejournal.com]

Man, Aizen could really be a good time in bed, I bet. Kyouka Suigetsu could let you live ANY fantasy like it was real.

Truefax. I'd brave quite a lot of VD for that.
