Date: 27 December 2005 11:09 pm (UTC)1. The first character I first fell in love with
I think I fell in love with Hughes before I did with Lust, so here. Hughes belongs to that archetype of adorable father I adore and he's one of the best. At the same time he's wonderfully manipulative in a teasing, low key way, and that's another thing I love. Add tragic death, wonderful friendship, cutest family ever... there's nothing I don't like about him ^^
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Greed. I didn't much like when he first showed up. He looked borringly show off and flatly evil. Then he started kicking ass, being cutely show off, and having this whole rebellious, Carpe Diem attitude which i can't do anything but love. By the time he was killed, I was quite fond of him ^^
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Envy. Despite that at the very end of the anime (say, two, three last episodes ?) I started liking him a little bit, I never understood why so many people worship him, as a willain I find him quite boring. However his... relationship ^^ to Hohenheim did redeem him and made him interesting in my mind.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
I never hated Roze who seem the get the most hatred in that fandom. Nor have I liked her or anything, but heh.
Oh, and Winry, if anyone does hate Winry.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
I feel ambiguous about Scar. That's a character I like for many things, but at the same time, I can't let myself fully love for other. I think the ending of the anime, and the way they simplified the way they dealt with his moral ambiguity might be partially the reason for that so I can't wait to read the manga to see how that unfolds.
Oh, and the Furher. What they did with hiwm at the end of the anime was boring and flat.
6. The character I would shag anytime
Huh. LustHughesRoyRizaIzumi. What do you mean I should just pick one ?
7. The character I'd want to be like
I did a a quizz once that said I was like Chezka. As if that wasn't obvious XD
Lust, I guess. I have that kind of crush-want-to-be-like-her with her. She's such a wonderful femme fatale, with just enough of actual lustfulness, but pretty low key, all things considered. I love her voice in the anime, the coldness, the loneliness and the unaknowledged sadness. And the ruthless year to be human. She kicks a lot of buttons that I, strangely enough, relate with.
8. The character I'd slap
Ed. Because it's fun :p
9. A pairing that I love
RoyxRiza, because I don't do ship in FMA, but those two are just adorable.
10. A pairing that I despise
I kept too much away from the fic side of this fandom to know of those there to despise any, even though I go googly eyed and "huh ?"-like anytime I hear mentionned "elricest" or "lustxsloth" or even "RoyxEd"
But right now, nah, I don't despite any.
no subject
Date: 27 December 2005 11:56 pm (UTC)There is a ton of Winry hate out there. Three comms dedicated to it, at least. Poor Winry.
Roy/Riza is awesome. I love the UST. I'm not a big shipper in FMA, either, though I do admit to liking Sloth/Lust for the hotness factor and to being a fan of non-graphic Elricest. Because with how close they are, how could either of them ever find anyone who understands them?
no subject
Date: 28 December 2005 12:32 am (UTC)I'm like you with Envy, but for the most part of my watching the anime I didn't like him at all. And I don't feel that's why most fans of the character love him so.
Urgh, I knew they would be. Female characters always get such a bad rap. Even in FMA where most female character kick ass Phenomenally.
I know someone else who likes LustxSloth, it's just that for me they have such a non dynamic interaction, I can't imagine anything even for the sake of "yay pretty girls together" Even Gluttony would make a better partner ;)
I warmed up pretty late to sibling incest in general, maybe I'd like it now if I tried, but at the time when I was watching the anime it just... well, I don't sexualize character like Al. Even if he's got some amazing interaction with a great many characters, starting with Scar... they should be a name for non-sexual shipping.
But yeah, I see what you know about their closeness. It's sweet.
no subject
Date: 28 December 2005 01:56 am (UTC)I love all the FMA females. It's why I was so glad I could sign up for FMA over at
I like the power struggle aspect of their relationship, and playing off of that. Because they do have a bit of a power struggle going on, and I like that. Gah, no Gluttony! ;)
I am very, very picky about my siblingcest. For Ed and Al, I like it a certain way. Mainly, Ed develops vague romantic notions for Al and freaks the fuck out over it. I don't know, I just really like that. And the struggle to come to grips with it and face it and deal with it.

Date: 27 December 2005 11:11 pm (UTC)I started FMA by reading the first four volumes of the manga that were available in scanlation at the time. Then I started watching the anime. That's what I'm basing myself on.
I'm now waiting for thr French official translation of the manga to pick up from where I left to continue ^^

Date: 27 December 2005 11:24 pm (UTC)Sirius Black !
I read the books when GoF came out and it didn't impressed me much. Years later thinking back, all I could think was "but that guy Sirius Black was pretty hot"
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Regulus Black. Because WTF, he's not much of a character in canon, yet somehow he wormed himself into my affection. And I was jumping with glee at RAB's not.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Bill Weasley ! I don't get why he gets so much love in fandom. As soon as Harry had described him and how utterly cool he was, with his piercing and his Indiana-job, I thought "uuurggh, how utterly boring". I think him and Fleur are pretty well matched.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
Gilderoy Lockhart ! I can't help me, he's so funny ! And so utterly gay !
Oh and Percy, though we are quite a few people to love him, thankfully. I love every bit of his pompous, anal, awkward ass ^^ I think it's mostly because he reminds me of Tastumi, weirdly enough.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
Nah, i can't think of any. Tonks maybe, but I still like her, I give more slack than that to characters.
6. The character I would shag anytime
See Sirius Black and Percy.
Strangely enough I'm a rabid SnapexLupin shipper who wouldn't want to shag either of them.
7. The character I'd want to be like
Rita Skeeter *smiles*
8. The character I'd slap
Hermione. She annoys me because she's got all the flaws that I loath in myself.
9. A pairing that I love
SnapexLupin, no sense whatsoever canon wise, but boy do they have the most amazing dynamics when well characterized in fanfics !
10. A pairing that I despise
These days I'm finding myself more and more adverse to SiriusxRemus for some reason, but i think that's just my contrarian sense speaking.
Oh and RemusxTonks *shudders*
no subject
Date: 28 December 2005 02:00 pm (UTC)I don't mind Remus/Tonks, but I think I might have liked it a lot more if it had been written in a different way. Romance isn't really JKR's strength...
no subject
Date: 28 December 2005 02:54 pm (UTC)I never liked RemusxTonks, even before HBP. I'm not sure I can explain why... I love both Remus and Tonks, and I don't see them as exclusively homosexual or anything. It's a question of dynamics. I see them as good friend, but I don't see anything sexual there. I can read it, though, and I have as secondary pairing to fics, so it's not a hair-tingling distaste.
And yeah, romance definitly isn't her strong point ^_^

Date: 27 December 2005 11:33 pm (UTC)I was "sold" on Gankutsuou by catie on amount of Franz. And weirdly enough when you know my contrarian nature, it worked ! I fell utterly in love with the silly selfishly selfless obsessed boy *sobs*
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Eugenie. I didn't even remember her from the book ! But she's adorable ! She's spunky without being annoying, feminine without being a lady in distress ! she's hot and she's human.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Benedetto. I get the pretty blonde crazy guy, but he just doesn't do it for me.
and how could I forget, the Count. I just don't get the fascination. I wasn't impressed by him in the book, but at least he grew up my himself more there. Here he's just that weird guy possessed. Okay, he's interesting, but I haven't got the least sympathy for him.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
Does anyone else love Haydee ? I adore her. I loved her in the book too, weirdly enough.
And Fernand too. He's a scum, but I rather like him ^^
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
Mercedes... did a little bit disapoint me with her uselessness during the duel, but she doesn't have an easy role to play.
6. The character I would shag anytime
Eugenie. (I'd do Franz, but he's gay ^^)
7. The character I'd want to be like
Lucien. ^_^
8. The character I'd slap
Albert. *sighs*
9. A pairing that I love
FranzxAlbert ! I was so sold on this XD
I wouldn't say no to EugeniexHaydee, were anyone inclined to write it.
10. A pairing that I despise
CountxAlbert x_x
Even if I can see the appeal from an analytical point of view, it squicks me still.

no subject
Date: 27 December 2005 11:54 pm (UTC)Gah.. I had a dream last night that I came to visit and I couldn't find your house. XD;
And yeah.. the best thing about Albert being such an idiot is that he's so fun to RP sometimes. XD;;

Haha, RPing the stupidest is always the funny. And the ubercurious meddling one, too. That was random.

no subject
Date: 27 December 2005 11:42 pm (UTC)1. The first character I first fell in love with
Yuuko, which might be cheating but still. I fell in love with her quite quickly.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Kurogane. He's so very sexy. I don't usually like the ninja (then again I don't usually like assassins either), it's such a boring thing to be, but Kurogane is so adorably bloodlustful, amoral and caring all at the same time. And very, very sexy.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Mokona. I loathe the little creature, I do.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
Errr
that evil doctor at the Sleepy Hollow world ?
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
Syaoran. I loved him in CCS, damnit ! Why does he have to be so boring in tsubasa ??!!
6. The character I would shag anytime
Kurogane.TOUYA ! in this world or another, Touya's always my first shaggable clamp character !
And, you know, Karen, Oruha, Seishirou, Tomoyo and many other crossover characters.
7. The character I'd want to be like
Yuuko. This woman is my Mary Sue I tell you !
8. The character I'd slap
Mokona. Obnoxious little creature.
9. A pairing that I love
KuroganexFye, of course, the white wizard and the black warrior. And they lovely bickering. And their intense serious moments.
10. A pairing that I despise
KuroganexTomoyo. Just... no.

Date: 28 December 2005 12:23 am (UTC)Toboe ! ^^ and Tsume too a little bit. Toboe is that kind of cute character I love and feel protective of. He's so sweet, and brave in his way, and wise too, and... ;_;
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Cheza. She's got some of the worst flaws I can hate in a female character, but, all things being equal, she's rather all right
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Kiba. He's all right, but I'm not rabidly in love with him. His self-righteousness annoys me a bit.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
I don't know if anyone hate them, but I adore Cher, Hubb and the old man.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
Darcia. I used to think he was a pretty coold gothic looking evil overlord. Then he... and now I hate him. ;_;
6. The character I would shag anytime
Cher. And Hubb. But mostly Cher, but I'd do them both too ^^
7. The character I'd want to be like
Cher, she's a pretty cool lady.
8. The character I'd slap
Darcia. Get. Over. It. Dumbass.
9. A pairing that I love
HubbxCher ^^ HigexBlue.... and TsumexToboe *blushes*
10. A pairing that I despise
None that I can think of (then again what do I know of the fandom otherwise ?)
no subject
Date: 28 December 2005 12:33 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 28 December 2005 12:43 am (UTC)I think that was Sorata. I really adored Sorata when I first watched the anime.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Setsuka ^^ because she's so wicked and charming and crazy, but also very minor so I wouldn't have expected to love her so.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Kamui. I don't dislike him, but he puzzles me.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
Kusanagi, Satsuki and Yuuto. Not that I think anyone hates them but they pass under a lot of people's radar.
Oh, and Kotori. She's adorable, but lots of people hate her.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
None. I still love them all.
6. The character I would shag anytime
Karen and Arashi. Wouldnt't say no to Yuuto either, he's such a cute whore.
7. The character I'd want to be like
People say I'm a lot like Karen, which tends to surprise me a lot. I do adore Karen, I could do with more kindness, righteousness and courage. Hokuro too, I'd like to be more like her. She's a wonderfully brave and kind and joyful girl.
8. The character I'd slap
Kamui. He needs to set his priority straight. I wouldn't slap Subaru because I don't want to be killed by Seishirou, and I'm sure it wouldn't change anything anyway.
9. A pairing that I love
OMG SeishirouxSubaru OTP ! Well you know those guys are one of my all time favourite pairing right ? The mindfuck ! the obsessions ! the hopelessness ! the twistedness ! the tragedy ! the hate/love ! the eros/thanatos !
10. A pairing that I despise
I only despite badly done SubaruxKamui, I'm rather fond of the pairing when it's well done, so... nah. None.
no subject
Date: 28 December 2005 01:31 am (UTC)Yey for Yuuto's sex appeal. I have no idea where that came from.

Date: 28 December 2005 07:19 am (UTC)Touya definitly. At the time (oh, I was young) I even felt a bit ashamed of liking an anime character so much ^^
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Ruby Moon. I really started to like her from fanfic and I find her adorable ^^
And Yue, by difference with Yukito, was slow in worming himself into my affection but he's quite there now ^^
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Kerobero. I'm really not too fond of cute creature.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
Meiling, I guess
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
Non, I still love all of them.
6. The character I would shag anytime
Touya, he's sexy as hell. Teasing, protective, smart, boyish and delightful.
7. The character I'd want to be like
Clow.
Can't pass up on wanting to be an immensely powerful wizard.
8. The character I'd slap
It's CCS ! I can't start slapping people around !
Oh the ten years old girl and the teacher she's going out with. Just, sorry, no. I might consider Kaqho too, but at least there Touya was nubile.
9. A pairing that I love
Touya/Yuki (Yue)
I like that nobody knows if that's a pairing or a threesome XD
They're my one fluffy ship, they're so cute and sweet ^^
10. A pairing that I despise
TouyaxMeiling. Because I tried reading it and it convinced me it was a very bad idea.

no subject
Date: 28 December 2005 07:31 am (UTC)Tsuwabuki.
I was slow to love character in Utena it's only by the end of the anime that I started to really be fond of them. However Tsuwabuki was an immediat, "how cutely creepy" ^^
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Anthy. She's one of my favourite, but I needed to go all through to the revelations of the ending. I love that she's a witch.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Utena. Not that I hate her, but I'm pretty indiferent to her. And Akio, I'm not as fascinated by him as everyone seems to be.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
Nanami ^^
Saionji, and even I don't love him wholeheartedly ^^
Shiori, I suppose, I like her and she gets a lot of bashing.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
None.
6. The character I would shag anytime
Kozue ^^ she's such a twisted little vixen ♥
7. The character I'd want to be like
Errr, that's hard to answer because all characters have big flaw even when they have big qualities and I don't want those... so in a way, Anthy, and in a way Juri.
8. The character I'd slap
It's Utena, only Anthy ever glet slapped. I shouldn't find this funny, I feel guilty about it >_>;
9. A pairing that I love
TougaxSaionji. Because they deserve each others ^^
MikixKozue
and AkioxAnthy ^^
10. A pairing that I despise
TougaxUtena
SaionjixWakaba
ill advised pairings, you know...

Date: 28 December 2005 10:44 am (UTC)Furuba
Date: 28 December 2005 12:13 pm (UTC)1. The first character I first fell in love with
Shigure ! I love him, he's just my type of manipulative caring bastard. So ruthless and tricky and so subtle about it ♥
For quickest character I fell in love with, I have to say it's Rin though. Love at first sight.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Yuki. I warmed up to him slowly, from the subtlities of his character and the way he thinks he's being nice to people because it's the easiest thing to do. At first his bishiness and princeness annoyed me.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Hatori. Not that I dislike him, but he is far from my top 10 of favourite characters.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
Rin ^^ Hiro, I think I'm one of the rare person who adores him.
I'm rather fond of Akito too, in a twisted way ^^
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
None. I don't fall easily out of love, really XD
6. The character I would shag anytime
Shigure, Rin, I would so do Kyou, Hatsuharu
7. The character I'd want to be like
Hatsuharu and Momiji for their genuine sweetness, wisdom and resiliance.
Hana-chan because she's cool ^^
8. The character I'd slap
Kyou, because it'd be fun ^^
9. A pairing that I love
I don't ship in Furuba, it'd feel too weird ^^ HaruxRin for canon, and if you insist I'd say that YukixTohruxKyou is one of the genuine threesome I couldn't imagine any other way.
oh, and AyamexHatori.
10. A pairing that I despise
TohruxYuki or TohruxKyou, it's too cruel to split them <_<
Re: Furuba
Date: 28 December 2005 02:54 pm (UTC)10. A pairing that I despise
TohruxYuki or TohruxKyou, it's too cruel to split them
*laughs* They can't live separated
*sigh* I like Hatori a lot, all the characters are adorable but he stands as my favourite ;D I love all your comments that made me happily smile. Thx.
Re: Furuba
Date: 28 December 2005 03:10 pm (UTC)I see your point. However, it's mostly unrequited from Ayame isn't it ? Hence the positionning. Pursuer, rather than Seme ^^
I do like Hatori. It's just that I don't like him as much as I like other characters, and as much as others like him ^^
and thanks to you ^^
Yummy Yami
Date: 28 December 2005 01:29 pm (UTC)Tsuzuki. It's the cheerful angst, the fact he's such a little manipulative passive agressive puppy ^^ and the fact he's alo a very sweet person ^^
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Tatsumi. He was slow to grow on me, but now I'm rabidly in love with him.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
Muraki. He makes me laugh to much to take him seriously, as a result I don't have the fascination for him that everyone else have.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
Err. Is anyone everyone hates ?
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
None.
6. The character I would shag anytime
Tatsumi. Possibly Watari
7. The character I'd want to be like
I'm a lot like Tsuzuki, that's all I can say
8. The character I'd slap
Muraki ;D
9. A pairing that I love
TatsumixTsuzukim because obsessive love and angst good.
10. A pairing that I despise
Errr MurakixHisoka ?
I don't dislike TsuzukixHisoka especially not in canonm but I find fic with them boring.
