yaoi is hotter to us because of looking men!!
utenea [sigh] .. just watched the first eppisode and i want to look the next but i'm having a lack of space problem right now.

sugahcat is right, there is more content of yaoi to read and watch, like in the anime of sakura the relation of sakura and tomoyo was only friend ship :(.. we have to read the manga to know what is the real thing that tomoyo was feeling to sakura.

Jeannette:
Revolutionary Girl Utena is an absolutely fantastic series, and well worth seeing. Strangely enough, the Utena and Sailor Moon animes were directed by the same man- Kunihiko Ikuhara; he started on Utena just after the SM anime ended. The Utena manga isn't nearly as good as the anime, which is odd- usually the manga is better than the anime. And Tomoyo/Sakura is very sweet and beautiful, even if it will be forever unrequited. I've never seen the CCS anime, so I didn't know they cut out Tomoyo's love/crush on Sakura. Kinda seems strange, since they left in Touya/Yukito.

(/jk) Actually, in all seriousness, I've never really seen Usagi as being in a lesbian relationship. It just doesn't seem to fit her character at all, but to each his/her own.

Oh god. *dies* >< I hate Sailor Moon canon when it's not Haruka/Michiru. Especially since the whole romantic energy of series seems focused on how perfect a couple Usagi/Mamoru were. *shrugs* And for some reason I always tend to dislike the main coupling of a series (with a few exceptions), anyway.. (Usagi/Mamoru, Ichigo/Masaya, Miaka/Tamahome,... I won't say Sakura/Syaoran for fear of getting mauled, but they've never been my most favorite... not when I have Touya/Yukito and Kuro/Fai at least. ^__^) But getting back on topic.. I'll be first to admit there's way too many bad out-of-character fics for Seiya/Usagi, but I like them anyway.... and it doesn't seem quite as strange for Usagi to me since Seiya is very guy-ish anyway.. already having experience as one due to her.. weird circumstances. XD Not that that makes her any less girl, though, really. (And yeah.. anime Seiya only even if it was screwed up - she's not the same character in the manga.)

Oops.. and I'm rambling. And what about Kaede and Sai from Angelic Layer? They're so together, you can tell.. and another really cute couple. ^^;;

Jeannette:
Er... I only read AL once, a few years ago. I don't really remember anything much from it, except that I loved Icchan. When I get money, I'll probably buy it and read it again, but it's not at the top of my list. Right now, I'm just trying to round out my Tokyo Babylon and X collection. (Subaru/Seishirou is love. Twisted, creepy, tragic love, but love nonetheless.)

I see your point about how guy-ish Seiya is. If Usagi were to be in a lesbian relationship, it would be with Seiya as opposed to Rei, the other character Usagi is consistently slashed with. I'd also say that Usagi might end up with Haruka since Haruka is also guy-ish, but that would violate Haruka/Michiru. And they are inviolable.

And Seiya, Taiki, and Yaten do have... unique circumstances.  It's all Seiya's fault, I'm sure. She's definitely the one who convinced the other two to go trans. Personally, I like Seiya/Kakyuu and Yaten/Taiki; (after all, remember, Seiya pretty much fell in love with Usagi because Usagi reminded her of Kakyuu.) And I do like Usagi/Mamoru. (shrug) They're cute together, and the whole star-crossed lovers in a past life thing appeals to my romantic side. And I've always been a bit of a canonslut; you have to give me a pretty big reason to violate canon for me to support a non-canon coupling.

I also do not see Tomoyo and Sakura actually being together; half because Syaoran and Sakura are very cute together and, after Tsubasa, are as inviolable as Haruka/Michiru, and half probably because Tomoyo rocks my world and I would so date her if she were older... and actually real... (Geez... )

The coupling that is... not the fics. -__-; I just read that and realized how bad that sounded. I actually like Seiya/Kakyuu, too. It's interesting to theorize what their relationship really was (or could be). As for the others... well, its been so long since I've really been into the fandom it doesn't matter anymore, and I used to like all kinds of pairings. I do have some Taiki/Yaten doujinshi that are really nice. And just can't see any of those three with anyone that's not completely girl.

Hmm.. and I still want to see the Utena movie, despite all the weirdness I've heard about it.
