Pre-heart’s day ala Anime

As the godawful Heart’s Day closes in, yours truly feels obliged to join the pseudo-holiday celebration. In commemoration of the god Eros, this blogger presents pairings which I have shown partiality in the recent months. Some unlikely, some are not.

Black Cat. I have previously suggested SvenxTrain but I think it’s pushing it.

• Creed x Train. S&M romance in the making. Do I sense eyes rolling? Ah, but gentle reader, psycho rose dude’s obsession over his former lover colleague is not only a great source of amusement but also brings color to my otherwise uninspired commentaries.

• Sven x Eve. Six Million dollar loli meets psychic pedo. The uncomfortable nature their relationship leaves room for slight worry. Yet the comedic results of their interaction cause much enjoyment. Go figure. Plus, they are such easy targets. ;p

Glass Mask. I would have liked to insert Ayumi x Maya for the handful of fanboys who enjoys the show. But yuri overtones between the two is severely lacking.

• Maya x Masumi. Oh, angst. Oh, drama. Oh, unrequited lurv. If you have been keeping up with the anime and have not read through the latest manga volume, believe me, their dance only gets better. Squee for Purple Rose dude. Unfortunately, Masumi has the tendency to chicken out at the last minute. *cough*sissy*cough* I’m saying this with much lurv.

• Hijiri x Masumi. Your wish is my command, dear master. Yes, my allegiance is in Maya and Masumi. However, fangirls might understand the great potential in the Hijiri-Masumi ’shipping. Heck, I am almost certain that the slave, erm, I mean Hijiri, is completely smitten over the Daitou prez.

Major. Komori x Yamane is up for nomination. I can almost see the sparks flying by. Then again, Mr. Bad Hair day and monk head together… *cringe*

• Goro x Toshiya. Insert own Baseball-BL line. Mine is too crass for public viewing. Forget Shimizu. Has anyone seen the smoldering exchanges between the two almost-bishified rivals? Most sane people interpret these looks as merely the intensity of a sportsman. Nay, I say. It is passionate desire. Ahem. Erm, did I just lose male readers now. ^^;;

Noein. I’ve considered the Haruka x Yuu. But, nah. Yuu’s teen-angst plain annoys. As for the suggestion of a friend on Karasu x Yuu? HELL, NO!! It’s just wrong in so many levels and it could be, erm, confusing.

• Karasu x Haruka. Tall, dark, and broody, anyone? Karasu oozes much uber-angst that venturing towards mockery-land seems almost a sacrilege. So my blogger self will play nicely. But think on how we have a slightly loli-fied chibi in addition to the master-brooder. They are ripe for the picking. The temptation… Still, this duo captures this audience’s attention with their sci-fi lurv affair, not to mention their googly eyes with one another.

• Atori x Miho. Match made in psycho heaven. While I concede that this veers towards another not-so-comfy zone, the mere thought of the former psycho dude and the supernatural freak playing house induces massive giggles. With their sanities not quite intact, an unlikely romance may bloom… If not for the sis-con complications. Erm, am I veering towards Stripey’s domain? ;p

Whoa, aside from the Maya-Masumi and maybe Haruka-Karasu, the other pairings are sort-of effed up. I only noticed this after completing the list. *scratches head* Does this speak volumes on the development of my anime appreciation? Scary.
