Too much time, too much talent, too much imagination, not enough real life to keep them too busyShatteredFlame wrote:So they're saying that everyone in the anime should have a sex change O.o. WTF is wrong with some of you anime nerds? XD

Like I said earlier, I have no problem with either yaoi or yuri. I just prefer the anime or situation be written as yaoi or yuri in the first place. It makes the stories make sense on the first go.
They for instance, had to bust a brain cell justifying why or how a peculiar boy would be able to strong arm female computer geeks out of a free computer.
In the original anime it was simple.
But all you get from a male making a forced concession from a girl through employing anything sexual in situation is a rape, or at least sexual harassment charges. And the guy doesn't get the computer.
It was funny in the actual anime, and worked because those guys were terrified of being charged with the same charges. And the courts rarely believe the guy.
Sometimes creative fiction simply doesn't work because it's illogical.
Yeah I know, most of anime is illogical

But there's a limit on suspension of disbelief in some things

Anime, one of the few things about the internet that doesn't make me hate the internet.

This scares me because nobody mentioned beating off to anything o3oIshbalan wrote:I would have problems beating off to a person who was once a man. :/
Also, gender bender Hare Hare Yukai?

Also, after seeing a picture of Haruki in a slightly less manly form, I can't decide which would be more appropriate:


I think for the most part all the fan artists have agreed on the second Haruki as the "official" way to draw him, but who knows?
Also, I read through a few of the stories they've translated, they are doing a good job of keeping faithful to the original script, but it also feels a lot like it's just replacing all the "hes" with "shes" and vice versa. Some situations with reversed genders would be pretty funny though.

I would concur, that selection two wins, and three is plain right out of the running.
But a question... is the yellow ribbon just a device to aid in identifying the Haruhi replacement, or are we to assume a guy actually would wear a yellow ribbon like that, or is it already planned he would be queer?

It's supposed to be a headband, but yes, I was thinking that as well... We know Haruhi is already a weird person, but wearing a headband as a guy is not something I see him doing.lestheanimesarge wrote: But a question... is the yellow ribbon just a device to aid in identifying the Haruhi replacement, or are we to assume a guy actually would wear a yellow ribbon like that, or is it already planned he would be queer?
