Utena_Tenjou Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 First I would like to clear up a few things- [B]Yaoi: Explicit sexual relationships between men Shounen ai: Translates into 'boys love.' Love stories between men. Yuri: Explicit sexual relationships between women Shoujo ai: Love stories between women.[/B] I did not make this thread to offend anyone, I just want to know if anyone else is a fan. Oh and, please shre the yaoi animes you've seen ^^ I've seen: Gravitation(Shonen Ai) Yami no Matseui(Shonen Ai) Fake(Yaoi) Utena the Movie(Yuri) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Def_Kun Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 I personally don't like much of shounen ai types of anime. I still feel uncomfortable when watching them. But gotta agree with Yami no Matsuei. Gawd the plot was so dark and twisted that it kept me interested for the whole series (even though it's just 13 episodes). Muraki's character is so twisted that he should be nominated as the best villan of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muraki..creeps me out, I don't like him >_< I still say Tsuzuki would go much better together with Hisoka n_n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 I've seen Utena but I wouldn't watch that again...as on the subject of Yuri and Yaoi, it depends....but I'll probably watch it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen Asuka Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 [color=crimson][size=1]I only like guy on guy, and only to a certain extent. They both have to be really SEXY anime guys. Like, um, Shinji and Kaworu, or Hotohori and Nuriko, or Heero and Duo, or...um, I don't know, I could make up some interesting couples. Oh YES, and Touga and Saonji.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me rephrase that. HE IS THE SERIES!!! hehehehe..... But I didn't like Tsuzuki and Hisoka's relationship. Besides the point that they're yaoi, neither of them has that strong presence. If Tsuzuki's gonna get hitched with a man then I'd prefer him going with the secretary (forgot his name. The one with the eyeglasses). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VP-Master Posted September 19, 2002 Share Posted September 19, 2002 I just find those kind of anime sick. There are quite a lot of people who watch these anime genres so my question is Why do you guys like these kind of shows? Maybe there's something good about it that I haven't seen or heard of...

Queen Asuka Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 [color=crimson][size=1]Well I really like Angel Sanctuary and it's got a brother and sister who are in love with each other. *Points to her avatar*[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hikaru Ichijyo Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 :rolleyes: Sigh, sorry those type of genres really don't interest me at all. Its very hard to watch an anime with those elements in it. I'm not one for explict content and some may argue its art. But I find that if any anime wether it be Yaoi, Yuri or hentai is not art but smutt. Sorry if I offend anyone by that comment. I just don't like those type of things in my anime shows/movies. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] \ Like I said earlier, I didn't make this thread to offend people, it's pretty much the storyline that usually attracts people to the anime isn't it? To me, it doesn't matter what gender it is, as long as it's got a good storyline, and so far, all the shonen ai/soujo ai stuff I've seen has had an excellent storyline.(Especially Yami no Matsuei) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.D. Ryoko Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 I never saw those kind of anime but I heard some were kind of sick. However I don`t mean to be rude or anything but is it true what they say about Quatre and Trowa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people like to argue things like yaoi and whatnot are not hentai because they belive there diffrent in some way, but we won't get into that.) can be very sick. The Quatre and Trowa thing I'm pretty sure is just generated from fan girl's doujinshi. Though,the closest thing I've seen is Junk Boy which is a corny,soft hentai comedy. (Or at least it kept me amused ^^;) (And I wont count all the times I've mistakenly come across hentai/doujinshi pics :rolleyes: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eleanor Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 Shinji+Kaworu is so cute...^o^ In in the GW series, I like 1x3 instead or 3x4. People make them looks like they're too perfect together...it's just..bleh. Gravitation-Tatsuha/Ryuichi is a nice couple me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillieFan Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 I really don't want to be seen as intolerant or anything, but how would you feel if I started a site depicting the guys from Gravitation going straight? My point is that I personally oppose the GW yaoi sites, especially the ones that are so sick it would be considered utter sickness if it wasn't yaoi and therefore allegedly "tolerant." For example, the yaoi orgy site and the one where one character is raping the other. One more point for you HeeroXDuo fangirls: The series writers have repeatedly stated that no such relationships were originally intended in the series. Enjoy your copyright infringement if you want to, but don't tell me you weren't warned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillieFan Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Imsirion [/i] [B]Hentai (thats what your refering to right?

The Quatre and Trowa thing I'm pretty sure is just generated from fan girl's doujinshi. [/B][/QUOTE] IMHO, yaoi/yuri IS hentai. The only main difference is that the pairings are same-gender rather than opposite gender, and even that difference isn't always present: in some henyaori, the characters are depicted as bisexual. You're absolutely right: the QuatreXTrowa thing was from exactly that source. Again, the writers said no such relationship was intended, and if I have to choose who the more reliable source is, I go with the source closest to the original work: the people who wrote it. [off topic] Oh, by the way Imsirion, is your avatar Millie too? It looks a LOT like her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
