♥ | Sesshoumaru’s treatment for Rin is pretty much indifferent (that is Sesshoumaru’s style, after all); however, their relationship can be interpreted in many different ways. For someone who is willing to write it in a romantic way, I would suggest viewing it in a sort of guardian-accomplice type of way--in anything else, you can change it around and make it work for you.

In my opinion, though, Sesshoumaru rarely treats Rin in a way that can be parental. For the most part, he completely ignores her, unless she’s in danger or he’s in a “good mood,” if you will. She, likewise, leaves him alone and plays the role of loyal subject.

Here (outside link) is a discussion on the pros and cons of Sess/Rin as a couple. I would suggest skipping over some things and just sort of scanning the page(s)...it’s pretty informative, as long as people aren’t ranting.

Hopefully that helps some. smile | ♥

Haha! You linked him to the Rin/Sesshoumaru foum on FF.N! Awesome!

She's right, you'll get lots of Info, as well as people's different views of their relationship.

I disagree with WB-chan when it comes to the father/daughter aspect. I do see it as such, at least, much more so than lovers. But I do agree with the fact that he's indiferent towards her. He just kinda ignores her most of the time and lets Jaken deal with her.

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.

I think Sesshomaru secretly like rin... not like that. what i mean is that he likes having her around and stuff other wise he would of just let her get killed by the numerous demons trying to eat her.

♥ | That's a given. xd If you didn't like someone, why would you continuously save him from harm? Well, I mean, if you're as heartless as Sesshoumaru is, anyway. | ♥

The way they interact is pretty simple. Rin asks Sesshomaru a question adressing him as Lord Sesshomaru , and he usually ignores her and talks to Jaken.

♥ | I like your view on the subject, Metal sly[...]. xd Actually, I think that is the perfect way to sum up the Rin-Sesshoumaru interaction. rofl | ♥

Honestly, that pairing grosses me out and it was fine at first but now... it just seems like he has a little companion in the dirty sense.

♥ | To be honest, while I like Sess / Rin, I think it usually gets twisted into that, too (which is gross). I'd rather say that there is no canon evidence to support the pairing, that it will only ever exist in fanon, and keep Sess / Rin as innocent companions because twisting every relationship into a romantic one is weird, anyway. | ♥
PostPosted: Fri Oct 16, 2009 2:25 pm


Okay, I'm getting that. But it still grosses me out. Its not a matter of if thats how it was intended or not, but its a matter of what its most popularly turned into.

♥ |-----Really?! I never read Sess / Rin stories. So I have no idea what is popular in that part of the fandom. Actually, I read only one only once, and it was extremely simpleminded and not well thought out. I laugh every time I think of it because the entire story was this:

Sesshoumaru forgets to get Rin new clothes for about ten years.

At the moment of truth, Sesshoumaru, with what I always imagine to be the O crap expression he wore when he saw his father in the third movie, opens his eyes and notices how well-formed Rin had become.

Rin confesses her love for Sesshoumaru, and they share a kiss. They live happily ever after, dedicating their lives to each other. The end.

I mean, I thought it was funny...but as far as getting the two together, well, I think it did not work on various levels. xd
