Loveless

--- Quote from: Ando on October 09 2006, 12:12 am ---Personally, I have only watched the first episode of Loveless, so I might not be qualified to speak in the matter, but I can't understand why so many think of Soubi as "hot" and "awesome". Sure, he's a bishie, and maybe he develops into a much nicer person as the series progresses - I wouldn't know - but judging from the first episode, I would say he is extremely creepy.
Ritsuka is, what, twelve? Moreover, as if that wasn't enough, at their first meeting, Soubi kisses him despite having promised not to do anything, and doesn't stop even though the kid tells him to. And, at least to me, all this is presented in a way that wants us to see Soubi as a cool seme, which is why I gave up this anime.
Did I give in too early, perhaps? Should I give it a second try? What do you people think?

For me Ritsuka/Soubi is a lot like Seishirou/Subaru- really really creepy but still worth reading. They're both very messed up people and their relationship with each other is about the best thing in their lives. I would say give it another try.

giver it another try. its a very good series. moreover even tho its creepy, i think the way soubi tells ritsuka "sukidayo" [which is the freindly way to say i love you] andk sses him all the time is more of a binding spell because their "true names" are diferent. he starts out somewhat distnt from ritsuka. a bit coolish...but as the series progresses he warms up ^^

Soubi is far more healthy for Ritsuka than his own mother. He even eggs Ritsuka's teacher Hitomi into confronting her about the abuse. Creepy on some levels, yes. But far less creepy than how Seimei views Ritsuka (I'm not even going to go there >_<).

ew yes. Show contentseimei is sadistic. for how he treated soubi, for the way he talks about his own brother, for what he DI to the both of them by faking his death, and even how he treats nisei (i loath nisei, but still. seimei is just going to let him get killed XP) i dont HATWE seimei, i just severely dislike him. (if he hadnmt ordered soubi to be with ritsuka...where would we be? ^^;;;)

Upon reading that, I realised how inconsistent I am, being creeped out by Soubi/Ritsuka but looking forward to the point in the X manga where Show contentFuuma goes evil (although that's mostly because I find his good version so utterly boring)... But I shall heed your advice and give it some more episodes. The overall plot seems fairly complicated and interesting, at the least.
