Oh, I totally agree about the obviousness, hands down. Though, because Minekura loves nice subtle hints, everyone is free to think what they like, no? Of course, I'VE got a nice pile of... SUGGESTIVE... pictures on CD, but whenever I show them, it's always "Bah, they're just pals! really!"
...uh huh. *grin*
Funny enough. On that same forum, under "pairings that make you go 'ugh'" :
"Saiyuki: Sanzo/Goku. Big squick of mine. Goku looks about fourteen in human years and acts it. Plus in the last manga I read, they teased him about his youth twice and once he shot back 'hey, I'm still growing!' Why people would want to pair someone as mature and as stoic as Sanzo with little, jumpy, food obsessed Goku is something I just can't understand. One sided from Goku's POV maybe, but mutual? That's too weird for me."
Yeah. He's fourteen. Keep believing it. *eye roll*
And Sanzo... mature? HA! He's the most spoiled brat of the lot! Life in a temple? Pshht... *grin*
Let me guess. "In the last manga I read" = volume 2. Hurrr... there's a bit more to the series than that... Gaiden, anyone? Oh, never mind. *good-natured sigh*
It's okay... everyone's free to think what they like, including the anti-slashers. But then, there's that manga-ka, of sometime yaoi fame... what's her name?

Oh yeah. Kazuya Minekura.
Heh.
