Hence... why it would be nothing short of moronic to label Wild Adapter as shounen. Or seinen.

I'm just sayin'.

Hey, I know boys that would read that. >.> We need a new genre! Called "Action Movie" or something. It's...action, mystery, and...AWESOME!~

*snort* And I know girls who read shounen and seinen, moreso than any other genre to boot. Case in point: me. Clearly, real audience is not the point.

WA's target audience isn't men, even if men would watch it (though most of the men I know would balk at the gay fanservice, not to mention that the plot is kind of... the same as that one Weiss Kreuz arc with the crazy lab experimentation and deranged scientist and wolf-people, except dragged out over 5+ volumes instead of five episodes).

Genre lines are fuzzy, but WA isn't even remotely shounen or seinen. ==;; Can't you just... it's very violent shoujo! Boys read shoujo. Just not very many in comparison to the number of girls who read it.

Hmmm...I'd probably call it shounen-ai, because there's just too much implication for it to not be. Uh. It doesn't really matter, though? I just like it!

I want some WA anime. D:

*laughs* Endless appreciation for Minekura's fanservicy colour pages. I have it.

Omg, the fanservice. It's everywhere. It's even worse more delicious in Executive Committee, even if the plot isn't as amazing.

So this is honestly coincidence at its loveliest <3

I just started reading WA this wednesday. And all because of springkink, lol. So then, just as I find out about this series... you post that amazingly hot video... and now THIS? Omg, they're so amazing. I was just drooling on the pages when ksjfhak. SPOILERS:

The end of volume four? After Kubota gets out of questioning? And the snow? And putting his forehead on Tokito's shoulder? OMG, instant puddle that was me <333333

END

I couldn't get enough of them and had to read Executive Committee too (which, when I saw the anime before finding out about this manga, was thoroughly confused cause I was like... it's like AU! )

I love you for this <3 Yay for beginning (are you beginning?) obsessions together.

I've read everything there is! All through volume six. It's awesome. Awesome. Awesome.

Spoiler:

When Kubota refers to Tokito as his spouse...omg. so hot.

Executive Committee is awesome, too. It is canon au. Which rocks.

YAY for obsessions~

OMG, your icons! *fans herself* Yes, that ear thing? I was about to bow down to this woman for such a delicious bit of fanservice. And I love to speculate about this-- most people slap others or shake them to get their attention. Kubota nips his ear instead... maybe he knows from experience that it's a sensitive spot for Tokito? Either he wanted to do that, or he knew (from experience, I maintain!) that it was a better way to snap Tokito out than just a punch/slap/shake
