I thought the lost of memories is only tied to the one who fails judgement (sakura) as opposed to everyone involved... >_>

But I could be wrong, having only access to the dubbed tv show and translated manga...

[aishuu]

In the original anime, it's everyone. Just rewatched it - Fujitaka forgets Nadeshiko, Tomoyo forgets she loved Sakura (as does Li), Chiharu and Yamazaki, Rika and Terada-sensei.

eeep... that is definately nasty.

I think part of your HTML is messed up -

And Yue: Shadow of the MoonCanon: Only the Inevitable

[aishuu]

fixed, thnx

I was so pleasantly surprised to see this ship manifesto show up on my friends-list tonight, and even more so when I saw who had written it ^_^ I've always loved your works, and I already knew you genuinely care for this pairing very much.

It was great. Reminded me how much I've always loved this pairing, and how perfect they are for each other. And you're right about Tsubasa; seeing them in it (and still together) is more of a treat for us fans than anything else ^^;

I will definitely have to check out those recs later. I haven't read nearly enough good fic for these two, as I never really got involved in this fandom.

And...I understand that you didn't want to rec any of your own work, but just as a note for anyone else who sees this, can I add that your own fic Alter Egos has always been one of my major fanfic loves (over all my fandoms), and the way you have the Touya/Yukito pairing in it seems perfect to me. Any T/Y fan should definitely read it

Thanks so much. I do think it's tacky to rec myself, but I am proud of that piece.

This is one of those pairings I just drift back into, no matter how long it's been since I've seen the anime. Definitely a OTP - one of my first shonen ai loves.

Also, I just edited the HTML, so there's a section on Yue you probably missed. ^_^

[cocacat15]

Actually, I somehow managed to read that part before it got messed up, and it the html was only messed up after I posted my comment... Strange ^^; But I did manage to read it already. I love Yue, how could I miss the part about him? ^_^

[aishuu]

Twas my fault. I corrected something on my draft copy (which I copied and pasted), forgetting I'd made the HTML correction in the actual one right before posting.

Yue is awesome. He needs some anti-depressants, but watching the way his expression changes as he learns to like Sakura is priceless.

hehe a great view on Touya and Yukito [i always love those two]. of course there were some difference between anime and manga but they do manage to convey how protective they were of Sakura
Thanks for writing this ^_^ [am checking recced sites for the fics]

[aishuu]

There are some differences, but the core of the characters is the same.

[murgatroyd314]

A minor point, but this did catch my eye instantly:

"The fact that Touya and Yukito appear so frequently has to be because of hitozen, the concept that everything is inevitable, and the two souls are linked."

The word is hitsuzen.

The translation I had was wrong. Thanks.
