[more Basara nonsense]

reenkaI fully understand none of you care about this, however... I can't stop myself, so.
You know, I actually tried to stop reading `Basara' when I ran out of licensed releases, but I just couldn't. I tried reading other mangas, but they all seem pretty 'bleh' and not as good in any way. My motivation to read pretty much anything else is zilch, though I did write a bit of my own H/D hug!fic. So scanlations it is for me....
Okay, so there's this boy and his best friend, and they're both rebel 'gang' leaders in a mountainous rural region, right, and one of them is a complete feral crackhead whale-hunter slash future priest (that'd be Nachi), and the other is the son of the local leader, also expert in Japanese sword-fighting (that'd be Hijiri), and he's all cool-headed and practical and caring and competent (and he has this cute gang tattoo on his face...). They're sort of adorably doting with one another, it's just almost painful to watch. It's the sort of thing where it's not like I want to improve/liven it up with sex or anything, it's just that they're already so married, it's not even funny. I mean, when you're married, you might as well go all the way, right?
I almost had a small coronary 'cause I thought Nachi was about to die (I literally cried... I never cry during books or comics, never, and I was seriously about to lose it because she could've killed -anyone- but my happy-go-lucky wildcat boy, ahhhhh *fawns over*). Actually, I'd really rebel if she killed Ageha too, but it wouldn't be as -wrong-, 'cause Ageha isn't so innocent and crazy and darling, I dunno. Basically, what it comes down to, for me, is not Nachi, and he's not even my favorite. Well, everyone's my favorite except the stupid Blue King, who annoys me and sometimes reminds me of Draco a bit, but not in a good way, except when he's being a brat and not a psychotic manipulative asshole. *sigh*
Anyway, my point was... my point was....
Hijiri thinks Nachi is about to die from multiple sword-wounds on enemy territory, and he's losing a lot of blood, right, and weakening/conking out and so on... and he... and he....
HE TEARS OPEN HIS ARM AND TRIES TO FEED NACHI HIS BLOOD. With his teeth. And Nachi's like, 'um... not a vampire, kthnx', and Hijiri's like, 'I DON'T CARE, I WILL MAKE YOU A VAMPIRE!!!' (...Neither of them are vampiric, obviously.)
...
...
I JUST WANTED YOU ALL TO DIE RIGHT ALONG WITH ME NOW (...though I know, that's prolly not possible.) STILL THOUGH!! STILL!! >:O

Date: 2005-08-26 12:01 pm (UTC)Now I just convinced myself that I don't want to see that though, coz it's too boring *rofl*
PS: Knowing manga, it will be a totally frustrating non-ending with things staying just as they are.

I don't even like Atlantis, but your icon is adorkable.

Date: 2005-08-26 12:26 pm (UTC)Heh, Momo is actually more devious than Hasumi, which is interesting to think about, coz it would be so much more black/white if Hasumi had another love-interest or saw her just as meat. But he actually tries to get to know her, and it's more in her own mind that she cannot be herself than in his behaviour.
The thing is that she'd need another pet then! She needs that a-sexual cuddling. Oh no. I hope they don't solve it by giving her a child to fill that need?
Thank you, it was my first J one and remains my favourite.

And...and... MOMO'S CUTER ANYWAY!

The yaoi ones currently published are so boring - stories like old-fashioned Harlequin romances, and no sexy images let alone actual sex, despite them coming in wrappers. I don't think I know Heaven's Door.
