Dear Code geass fandom:

It IS possible to like BOTH Rolo Lamperouge and Shirley Fennette.

( You don't believe me? Here's the proof. Tremendous spoilers for the whole Code Geass. )

double standard?, "oppose lulu and die!!!", character a vs. character b, code geass, crying "devoted = weak", crying "love intrest = bitch", crying "in love = stalker!", die for our ship

I'm not into Code Geass, but I'm a fan of two characters from Naruto who I apparently can't be a fan of: Shikamaru and Hidan. The latter killed the former's teacher, and the former killed the latter in revenge, and according to the batshit fringe of the Naruto fandom, one CANNOT possibly like both characters, and if one likes Shikamaru then one must hate Hidan. AAAARGH. You CAN like a character and their enemy.

Augh, I know! And from what I can see, apparently you can't like Shikamaru and Sasuke either. Or something. Duh. :(

I recently discovered the Shika-hate and it bothers me. IMO he's the best candidate for Hokage (disputable, but hey, it's why it's an opinion) and he, despite the lack of focus on his teammates, is one of Kishi's best creations. I saw some comments on the interview (where Shika wouldn't get a love interest?) that rejoiced on the confirmed lack of Shika and my brain got killed.

That's an unbash in the making. Shikamaru is my favourite character next to Kankuro, and the bashing he gets from Hidan fans pisses me off IMMENSELY because they don't seem to understand that Shikamaru had other reasons for killing Hidan, ie that Hidan was a threat to Konoha because he was after our hero. G-d forbid Shikamaru protect his fucking village. And G-d forbid he feel angry over watching his sensei be killed in front of him in a horrific manner. He seems to get compared to the Sauce a lot over revenge and it's all OMG KISHI IS A DOUCHE HOW COME SASUKE CAN'T TAKE REVENGE BUT IT'S OK FOR SHIKAMARYSTU AUTHOR'S DARLING RAR RAR.
I actually like the look of Code Geass. I seem to recall Shirley is a bit like Orihime, so no wonder people hate the poor girl!

Never heard of that before. I dig Shikamaru ;) Hidan's fun too because of his stupidity and potty mouth.

And hey, Shikamaru has been in the popularity TOP 10 List (for Naruto characters) for a long time.
