*claps hands together* Kougaiji/Yaone! I remember hoping to find a doujinshi of them when I was on an Ebay-ing spree! Never found one, tho'. Woe.

Eheh, anyway, yeah. The fanbase is there. *raises hand*

Oh, hell yes I agree with this pairing. I may be a hardcore yaoi/slash/shonenai fangirl, but Kou/Yaone is one of the cutest and strongest relationships I have seen. Minekura may not give us many females to look at, but when she does, they're as fully rounded as the boys. Though... I rather see it be Kou/Doku/Yaone... I think that threesome would work well.

I am glad to see that, among so many ship manifestos, there is one KogaijiXYaone ^_^.
I love them together, it's so obvious they deeply care for each other.
Yet, many yaoi fangirls annoy the hell out of me saying that Kogaiji obviously is into Dokugakugi X(.
Don't misunderstand me: I am a yaoi fangirl as well. But I am also enough open minded to like as well both het and yuri pairings, as long as I like the characters. I just can't stand it when my fellow yaoi fangirls start scorning every pairing that is not m/m, calling the female characters "clingy bitches" because they dare to think that the obviously gay guy may be interested in them X(. Yaoi pairings can be very good, but they are not necessarily better than het pairings.

Anyway, there is a small mistake in your essay:
In the attack on the place over five centuries ago, a seal was placed on her as well as Kougaiji and Gyuumaoh.You forgot to mention that Lirin and Gyukumen Koshu were sealed as well. Gyuumaoh had been dead for 500 years, so Gyokumen Koshu had to be pregnant of ( ... )

The mistake was noted. I'll have to remember that beta-readers are really a good thing outside of fanfiction. ^^;

Also, the part you disagree with--you're right. It wasn't personal gain, and I worded that badly. I meant to imply it was supposed to appear to be personal gain ("seemingly out of personal gain") and it can, to many outsiders look that way. Again, a beta-reader would have caught that.

Thanks for the comment. <3 And for catching the mistakes. It was muchly appreciated.

Thank you for the essay, it was a real pleasant reading ^_^

The essay's very well done, and after reading this, it's easier to see the hints in the anime between the two of them. I guess it only applies to me, since I can't see a hint unless it hit me over the head with a club.

you'd think kougaiji/yaone would be the most popular het pairing in the saiyuki fandom...huh, go fig.

neway, awesome essay. i'm not a k/y shipper, mostly cus i lean more towards the yaoi/yuri than het, but i think yaone is most likely 2 end up with kou and ur essay proves it.

nice job.
