Oh CLAMP fandom why do you insist on getting dumber by the minute?

Feb 27, 2008 13:57

There seems to be a lot of... bitching... about CLAMP canon lately. Why, I don't know, it's not like CLAMP hasn't been around for ages and most of the manga that's being bitched about isn't anything new.

( Snip )

minor bitching, clamp, fandom! it burns us!, stupid fat hobbit

Kaede and Sai from Angelic Layer? =\ I'd say they're as close to canon as a Clamp yuri couple usually gets.

I can't believe I forgot about those two!

Of course they end up in the typical yuri fashion for CLAMP since Kaede dies in the years between AL and Chobits. :(

...D: This is true. But in anime-verse, Chobits and AL aren't in the same universes, I don't think.

And that's pretty much it. Alternate ships you say? Well, the CLAMP fandom isn't really one that is big on alternate ships as most of the fans ship canon pairings. Seriously, think of the alternate ships in the CLAMP fandom, they really don't have many fans. The only ones that are hugely popular are Doumeki/Watanuki and Kamui/Subaru both which have bases in canon. Hell, some canon pairings have a hard enough time finding fans.

Not that I care either way, but what makes you say DouNuki is an alternate ship? *plucks through latest chapters?* I don't see Holic as a very romantic series in general, and while there's definitely not enough support to say that it's canon, it doesn't... have a canon ship, so it's not an alternate ship? XD And there is a strange amount of love for Eriol/Tomoyo. =\ Yeah, most of the shippers are insane, but there are a handful of nice people I know like it too, so.

If Seishirou/Subaru and Fuuma/Kamui can't get ( ... )

I was thinking in terms of it not being canon. You're right though in it's not an alternate ship since neither are in a canon relationship.

Eriol/Tomoyo I simply forgot since I blocked it out of my mind after a recent fight with some fans.

I was wondering if I missed something. I haven't been bothering to keep up since my little craze with KH started, so I was like, "...dur?" *laughs* But I'm not invested in their either way, so I was just wondering if I needed to get caught up again or something.

Ah, I see. That's logical. I tend not to think about Subaru/Kamui, even though I've never really fought with any of the fans. ^^;
