I seem to have a slightly different look on shounen-ai. I don't mind it if the AUTHOR has a REASON for the pairing. I hate it when CLAMP turns their characters a little off straight for no reason. I mean, in Gravitation that's how the characters are so I don't mind. Same in Sukisyo. But in Saiyuki it's not the author doing that to their characters, it's the fans. I don't approve of it in Saiyuki but again, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.


thats not quite true. Kazuya Minakura dose make many Yaois (Saiyuki is one, if not her only none man/man anime) and there are a few slash hints throught out Saiyuki 3nodding


^-^ It's true, and Kazuya Minekura herself has done some Saiyuki Doushiniji, and It is Yaoi. (It makes me very happy ^-^) I've only read one of them though, and it was really good! ^-^


Dude, really? Where?! Um... at the risk of being too off topic, maybe PM me...

I'm sorry, but I REFUSE to believe any of the Saiyuki boys are straight, no matter how much I love them nor how many times Gojyo hits one women.

Four men. On a trip. No women. End of story.

I do, however, respect your opinion and will not berate you about it.

Well, it seems that the only way to find out is to ask Minekura Kazuya herself. xd Man, I wish that was possible.

All the same, I believe they're not homosexual.

Bet I know what she'll say: "I'm not telling." Sometimes authors are annoying and won't tell you that sort of thing. But is she's making yaoi doujinshi for them like Moneneko says... I'm betting they are. sweatdrop Or if they aren't, she wanted them to be, but also wanted to sell her book to a wider audiance than yaoi fans. Oh well, speculation, speculation.

I have to disagree with that...if Kanan hadn't have died her and Hakkai would have been together. Maybe Hakkai alters to homo later...but originally he's straight. ^_^

Miss Prodigious, whose side are you on? xd
Well, I don't know about Goku and Sanzo but from what you two are saying, Hakkai and Gojyo are straight. (Although of course, being homo doesn't necessarily mean that you can't be macho, that's why.)

Have you ever had a best friend you were inseperable from? I guess Tenpou and Kenren are like that. Maybe they're being compared to married couples bec. married couples are inseperable too.

Before Saiyuki yaoi was a no-no for me. Then I just became a fan of it. I'm not a hardcore fan of it but I will act like one just to bug my friends...especially the guys...ha.

P'g: ^_^ I'm on the non-yaoi side...I'm sorry I thought what I said was clear...my fault...
Hakkai: -o-_^ Oh dear, my line has been raped of me...
P'g: O.O;;...wow...wait...Goku...Sanzo...together?? NEVER!!! *grabs Goku and runs behind a couch* Sanzo can't have him...EVER!!
Everyone: O.O;; ooooookay...
Goku: ;-; help...someone...?
P'g: ^_^ Ah, and for Priestess...a lot of people are refered to as husband and wife...^^;; it's just a play on their personalities.
Gojyo: Sure it is...
P'g: @_@;; Fine...be gay...
Gojyo: O.O What?

Good point. I don't seem to think before I post nowadays. But maybe she's two-faced...
