to any one who hates the paring




Quote:
Anti 1: That’s gross and weird! Rin is a little girl and Sesshoumaru is a grown man. Sesshoumaru is not a lolicon.

Answer: This is the biggest misunderstanding. Yes, you say “Rin IS a little girl.” But we don’t say it’s for NOW and we don’t mean that Rin is a liitle girl when we say about Sess/Rin pairing. We mean a grown up Rin.

Anti 2: Sesshoumaru is like a brother or father figure to her. It’s like she marries her father.

Answer: Honestly, why and how did you see Sesshoumaru as Rin’s father figure? Just because he’s physical older than her and they live together? Because he protected her? Because she admired him? Or even because she calls him “-sama”?
So remember: Inuyasha is way older than Kagome too. And since Shippou is a child too, it doesn’t mean that he’s Inuyasha’s son. Age is just a number here. I don’t get the “father Sesshoumaru” ever. Did he feed her? Did he showed her fatherly caring? Who did she go to when she wanted to talk, to play, to be cared? Not him. All he did for her are saving her sometimes, let her tag along, give her a dragon to ride and play with. What kind of father told his daughter to fend for herself at night, when she’s only 7-8 years old, and send an almost useless servant to look after her? Yah, I know that kind of father, but I don’t think you want to hear about Sesshoumaru like that. ^^” All the fluff scenes are in doujinshi and fanfics, not the real Sess/Rin relationship we’re talking about.

And since I’m an Asian, lived in a “big family” that has many complex relationships under the roof, I know that I can’t and I didn’t see someone as my father figure just because he lived with me, he’s older than me or even he cared for me.
Believe or not, Father/Daughter relationship is much more deep, complex and needs much more affection than you think it be. You can’t easily see anyone as your child and you can’t easily call anyone as your father either.

Anti 3: Its still disgusting to sleep with someone that you knew since she was a little girl and you were an adult all along.

Answer: I can talk about some of diffrences of cultures here, but I think it’ll not make anything better.

You talk about real life’s “experience”. But do you know how many people did that in the real life? If they don’t feel that’s disgusting, why do you feel that? In Sesshoumaru and Rin’s case, like I said before, age is just a number. Sesshoumaru is hundres years old demon. He had seen many people were borned, grown up, and died before his eyes. To him, human is just human, there’s no diffrence between a child and an old woman. To Rin, Sesshoumaru is just a companion, he’s very young. (Remember, his look and mental age is around 19 years old. He’s just a teenage boy). It’s not hard to find some 7-8 years old girls want to marry their teenage idols nowaday, eh? ^^”
They’re very different!!

Anti 1: The age difference is just horrible.

Answer: Look up for what I said. Inuyasha is older than Kagome hundres years. Inu no Taisho is older than Izayoi maybe thousand years. Do you find that horrible?

Anti 2: Sesshoumaru will never love a human. He has his pride.

Answer: Sorry, but he loves Rin. If you read the recent manga’s chapter (Chapter 468-471), you’ll have no doubt in his love for her. Whatever kind his love be, he loves a human (and I could say he loves her deeply).

And is his so-call-pride right or wrong? The right pride is you believe in yourself, in your streng, your will to do what you want… With that pride, you can see others as the true self they are, love or hate with your heart. It’s not the blind pride you have in your family’s streng, your family’s origin, your blood, or even your look… Human kind has had enough doom for that. I love Sesshoumaru, but he’d be wrong in his view of world if he has that pride.
Personal option

Well, personal option is personal option. ^^ I just list them here and say my personal option too. Well fair.

Anti 1: Sesshoumaru is not a romantic type and I can’t see him fall in love with someone.

Answer: I honestly can’t understand why the un-romatic type people can’t love. ^^’ So I guess 1/10 people in the world or least than that never have love in their life. There’re always romantic people for un-romantic people.

Sesshoumaru is just a boy (or young man). Is it too early for saying anything about his lovelife? Life can change and people can change.

Anti 2: I like/love Sess/Kagura/Kagome/Sango/ect pairing better.

Answer: Right, it’s fine. Like or hate a pairing doesn’t make you and me better or worse, but our behavor does. And you or me like or hate a pairing don’t make it better or worse in other’s option either.

♥ | ... Despite the opinions of some of my friends and many people whom I talk to on forums, I like this pairing. One reason is because I used to be an anime-only fan and, since the anime didn’t go far enough into the manga storyline, didn’t understand the implications of Sesshoumaru/Kagura that Rumiko Takahashi had included in her manga. Due to that, Sess/Rin appeared to be the only acceptable and semi-canon Sesshoumaru relationship that I could find for the period of time in which I was an anime-only fan, and being the OTP canon-monger that I was, I quickly latched onto it...which can still be seen today, apparently.

Another reason is because of fan-fiction’s influence. If you have read the good deal of fan-fiction as I have, you will notice that many Inuyasha/Kagome, Miroku/Sango stories will include elements of Sesshoumaru/Rin (especially AU’s). I credit this to the same, first reason as what I posted in my first paragraph. The exposure made it seem more real to me, and helped me understand a lot about the pairing’s fans’ points of views.

I have used this argument as well. In my opinion, it’s solid, and the person who wrote the review went on to explain it very well. Even though Sesshoumaru is the only person whom Rin has, she shouldn’t want to or even have to view him as her father--he isn’t, and she has never had that premonition before. However, I do easily accept this form of the Sesshoumaru/Rin relationship (it is very cute) and see it as a valid view. whee

As for age, I must agree that it is just a number. Sesshoumaru isn’t changing or developing further, even if he’s lived and is going to live for thousands of years. Rin is quickly closing the gap. Romantic Sesshoumaru/Rin is fine to me (even with my morals) as long as Rin reaches mental and physical maturity, and she will eventually get there. 3nodding ... | ♥

I really like Sesshoumaru Rin pairings. I agree that age is just a number, I mean... well I mean, like the long quote said, No one cares about InuYasha Kagome pairings, or Inu Taisho Izayoi pairings right? InuYasha is about 180 years older than Kagome, but NO ONE cares about that.

Sesshoumaru Rin father/daughter is nice too.

AND there's no doubt that he loves Rin... at least in my eyes heart

♥ | I can agree with that. I prefer Sess/Kagu, too, but unfortunately, it's not much of an option anymore. sweatdrop | ♥

Ello my favorite pairing to me is Sesshi/kag but Sesshi/Rin is good too.I used to think myself that they were meant to be but then I started to like Sesshi/Kag.

♥ | Not to swerve the topic in this direction, but I was never a fan of Sesshoumaru / Kagome. It has nothing to do with Sesshoumaru / Rin, but, in my opinion, it goes against the grain of the manga quite a bit.

Much like Sesshoumaru / Rin, in fact; however, Sesshoumaru and Rin's relationship is more open to development than Sesshoumaru and Kagome's if you consider that Kagome is involved with Inuyasha and that she has Kouga and Houjou right there, too.

I'm not really a romance person, though. Don't expect me to come up with some elaborate scheme to get two characters together unless I have some crazy agenda. confused | ♥

I will not see Sesshoumaru/Rin as a father and daughter thing, but more of a girl and her guardian, or maybe brother and sister. It just strikes me that she sees him as more of an idol or a brother rather than a possible love option in the future. After all, her family died, and she lacks the warmth of a family.

And about the age thing...as you said, Sesshoumaru had seen many people come and go, born and die. Would it not stand to reason that Rin may equally do the same? To grow up, and maybe then grow old and pass away when Sesshoumaru still looks around 20 or more?

But this is all just what we can deduce with the information that Rumiko had given at hand, the others are up to fans to conjure up. So...maybe it's too early yet to condemn this pairing.

Although technically I'm more of a Sess/Kagura fan (which will never happen T^T ) and a Rin/Kohaku fan.

♥ | I agree with you, Bai... I was never able to conjure fatherly / daughterly!Sesshoumaru / Rin as anything more than a cute idea. I won't say anything about the brother / sister thing, but I also have never been struck by Rin to seemingly be the desperately searching for love and affection and a home in Sesshoumaru type. To me, she's nothing more than a cute-but-rebellious child who was looking for some adventure and something better than what she had before when opportunity presented itself.

I was introduced to Sesshoumaru / Kagura later than I was Sesshoumaru / Rin -- same with Kohaku / Rin -- and while I adore both of those alternative pairings, I will definitely always have a soft spot for Sesshoumaru / Rin...just because. Lol. 4laugh | ♥
