The anime (and OPs) pretty heavily implies Blue x Jomy, Keith x Jomy and Tony x Jomy. Besides that, no girls. At all. Like, not even once. There isn't a lot of Terra DJ out there that I've seen, but there is a quite good Keith x Matsuka one that perfectly fits their canon series relationship. I mean, Matsuka spends an awful lot of time in Keith's room, after all.

Also, I wish that the short special which shows a glimpse of the world post-series [had more characters than just Keith and Jomy! What about Blue? He made just about the greatest sacrifice, giving up his one dream of seeing Earth! No Soldier Blue incarnation!? WTF people. Give us back our albino spaceman tyvm.]

I shall give Owari no Seraph a try. After reading the first chapter of the manga, I can just about guess, the boy that gets left behind becomes a vampire? This feels so Code Geass....

Is Physis, the blind Mu seer, in the OPs? I seem to remember she appears briefly. There aren't a lot of girls in Terra as it is, apart from Physis there's Suena and Tony's mother...I can't recall anyone else but it has been a while. I need to rewatch it one of these days.

Do share the title of this doujin, I am more than a bit interested. I really like Keith x Matsuka even though it is all shades of wrong. [I suspect the reason why Keith treats Matsuka so horribly is at least partially because the whole Shiroe deal did a pretty number on him. Keith was never the warmest person around, to put it lightly, but after Shiroe he seemed to take a turn for the worse. I suspect that even if Matsuka was not a Mu he would still be treated rather badly by Keith. My question is whether Matsuka was born a masochist or came to realize it was his own vocation.]

I suppose the reason why Matsuka spends so much time in Keith's room is for briefing and disciplining...when put like that it sure sounds...suggestive. And other characters seem to think the same, Serge's long lost brother is rather peeved that Matsuka, of all people, gets to spend so much time with Keith. Then again odds are he's just annoyed he is not the one who gets to be 'disciplined'.

I do not think I saw that special. [So everyone who dies, which is almost, well, everyone gets a 'reincarnation' finale minus Blue? That really sounds unfair, Blue is adorable and one of my favorites. On top of everything he's Kaworu's senpai.]

About Owari no Seraph, [Mika does become a vampire while Yu is off training to kill *all* vampires. I can only imagine how it'll go when they cross paths again as they are bound to do. I wish Mika was the main character, all that angs at being turned into a vampire against his will and staying in the vampire dominated city makes him so much interesting than Yu's typical shounen 'revenge/nakama' motivations.]

And there is also Yoichi whose attachment to Yu is one of those 'friendships' that border on romance.

This is the doujin: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/terra_ … ittle_bit/

Yeah Physis is one of the big players in the OPs despite not really doing much of any real use the entire series. She kind of exists to fuck things up. They do suggest a Blue x Physis thing, but the way he calls her 'my goddess' tends to make me feel like their relationship is...a very deep and loving one, but platonic.

The epilogue [only features Keith and Jomy:] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcV8qROZmdM
I think it should have featured all the mains, especially some of the more tragic characters!

Hehe, debriefing and disciplining.
Honestly Keith x Matuska was one of my favorites parts of the whole series. I like messed up characters being in messed-ups with each other. Very all shades of wrong.

EDIT: I want to ask about Silver Diamond. Worth it?

I agree with making a Free! topic because swimming boys deserve it. That and we can keep the spoilers just for the novel discussion in a thread that is just dedicated to Free!.

And we should indeed get some posts copied, maybe we can do that ourselves? Or contact a mod, whatever works.

Hey guys, which posts do you want in there? Is there like... a big block of them you want moved, or just a few, or what? If you link the ones you want moved, I will move them.

Yes those choices look good to me too!

Can anyone think of a series (manga, anime, or even visual novel) where a bishonen male character has numerous male admirers after him?  I think the closest to this would be Ciel of Black Butler.  I've pretty much assumed that everyone in that series has a thing for Ciel.  Oh and Yuuri of Kyo Kara Maoh.

I think the posts were all so Free! heavy that it would be fine for them to be moved. We were just talking about Toward the Terra in addendum, all the yummy recommendations will still be here. What do you guys think?

Thanks! Looks good to me so far.



THIS IS SO IMPORTANT

Need to know how gay your sports anime is before committing to a whole season? Here's your answer. Found this on Tumblr, where else?

Heh, a very useful guide indeed but Kuroko almost rivals Free!'s gayness. It even has a canonically gay character wondering about which of his teammates is the cutest...and ironically enough that is probably not the gayest part of it either.

Seen from that angle, whenever Akashi goes on about being 'absolute' you cannot help wondering just how that would pan out in bed. And considering that Akashi is borderline insane (when not actively psychotic, that is...) makes it even more interesting.

It's even difficult sticking to one ship as virtually every pairing works. From Kuroko going on about being the shadow to Kagami's light, to their staring deeply into each other's eyes to the oodles of foe-yay with every single rival and there is even the 'former comrade/childhood friend' turned very tenacious rival.

Yeah! I usually don't tend to be a multishipper (I generally find one ship or non-conflicting ships and stick to those) but with Kuroko I just can't decide. I think my favorite is Aomine/Kuroko, but I also like Kagami/Kuroko, Kagami/Tatsuya, Aomine/Kise, Aomine/Kagami, Kise > Kuroko, etc.

Its a three minute clip about dating (otome games) sims and how the best friend sometimes seems like a better match for the protag tham the girls.

Haha, Tomoda is such a great "friend"

So much gay sports anime, so little time.

Reflecting on it, Evangelion episode 24 was a better adaptation of Demian than SKU was.

Oh, hell yeah. I didn't realize it at the time, but...

I really wonder sometimes with all the weird bromancy fanboy thinging that Anno has for Ikuhara, how much of what shows up in Eva was inspired by Ikuhara's work. It came before SKU so it's not that, but I suspect they drew a lot more from each other in communications and such than either is super eager to let on. It's implied pretty heavily in that interview they do together though.

I like me some KawoShin.

That looks spectacular! I will check that manga out for sure XD
