Yu Yu Hakusho Rants (original) (raw)

I roleplay quite frequently on several different forums, and sites. God forbid you ask for a Yu Yu Hakusho rp. When that happens all the sues come out of hiding and flock to you, especially if you are willing to do canon for an original character.

I try to give people the benefit of the doubt I really do but when your character is half human, half demon, has a perfect hourglass shape, is stronger then sensui and has 20 tails, when you make every character fall in love with her and she has to choose then it is the most annoying sickening thing in the world. I love original characters I really do, it just seems like there are a few types. There of course is the all powerful god sue who claims that her character can do anything and is incapable of losing at anything. There is the emo sue, who wears nothing but black and gushes about how hard her life has been and she has a brutally dark past that makes small animals want to commit suicide. As if that isn't enough there are the people who want to play the kids of a character. Needless to say this is exceptionally annoying.

If you are going to pair an OC up with a canon character, then please make them either a human or demon, since EVERYONE is becoming a half demon. I have no problem with strong female characters (I love Shizuru, Genkai and Mukuro) I just do not like the god-sues. Your character can have a traumatic past, but if that is their sole complaint then it gets way too horrible and boring. It's cliche, just don't do it.

I wish someone would create Mary-sue repellents for situations like these.

can anyone please find me a COMPLETE YYH/Inuyasha fanfic? or one that has been updated recently?

The concept is such a good one because they seem to fit together and YYH gives an excellent explination as to why there were demons 500 years in the past but not in the present day. But damn it, like all fics it has to be done right!

As I'm new here, and just found this community, I decided to share my biggest beef with the YYH Fandom.

It seems like it's becoming overly redundant for fanfiction authors to take a few unnecessary liberties with

everyone's favorite boy-toy

a certain red-headed fox-soul container more commonly known as Kurama.

Now, I'm all for taking certain artistic liberties because that's how fanfictions are created, but some of them have become so overused (especially by the fanbrats) that it makes me want to cry and run away from the YYH fandom completely. The two that I absolutely cannot stand are: Kurama's schizophrenia, and the fact people think 'Youko' (or Yoko) is the fox demon's given name.

To deal with the second issue first: Youko is not a given name. From everything I've seen and read, it translates as 'Spirit Fox,' and stands for his species. Therefore when he is introduced, there is a reason why there's a 'the' in front of it. He's The Spirit Fox, Kurama. And I'm sorry, but Kurama seems like such an ego-maniac that he would have probably killed anyone who dared to call him by his species instead of his name. You just can't build a reputation that strikes fear into the hearts of the wealthy when they don't even call you by your name.

This leads to my first point: Shuichi does not have voices in his head! I'm sorry but from what I understand, the poor kid is just a human body with a demon soul. Meaning, there's no 'Shuichi' or 'Youko' in his head carrying on arguments or telling him he needs to get laid. I don't even think sex would be the first thing on the mind of the Youko Kurama (if there was a voice in that poor boy's head), it would probably be thievery instead. But that doesn't mean there's no fusion of the two, if there wasn't, well.. That red-headed boy would have probably died in the womb from the body and soul just not meshing.

Now that isn't to say I don't enjoy a fic that can pull off the schizophrenia well. I've found a few that do, and they're a complete joy to read. However, it gets used far too often in badfics, and usually the only thing those voices pop up to say is: "I want sex." "Damn, she was hot." "Why can't you let me out?" or some version thereof. Those fics cause my braincells to die slow, painful deaths.

I'm not usually one to rant, but I feel like expressing my confusion. Is the Keiko bashing really necessary? I run into it sometimes when surfing the sue breeding ground called FF.net. Y'know Keiko is portrayed in fics as a really snobby girl who can't stand any sort of female standing next Yusuke. >P Um, even when she thought Botan and Yusuke had a thing goin on in the series, she didn't walk up and bitchslap her. XD

Yusuke/Keiko is my OTP, but everyone's entitled to their own opinion, so I don't have a problem with alternate pairings.

Because Y/K is canon, dammit

.

Yeah, Keiko doesn't have abnormally colored hair, fifty tails and omgsuperfire powers like your lame oc does. So she's boring? Sure, your opinion, no one said she has to be your favorite character. But please don't portray her as the class bimbo in your fic. Seriously.

Ok, I ish done now. <3

Current Mood: devious

I wouldn't be surprised if I was alone in this, but does it bug other people at times when fans often ignore what the mangaka states at canon?

I mean I don't want to offend anyone, but I'm one who doesn't exactly find yaoi very favorable, unless stated in canon [aka Sensui/Itsuki, Yuki/Shuuichi (Gravitation), etc]. But I mean, Togashi has stated what's canon about certain characters and what's not. And as far as that goes, what the mangaka wants for canon; the mangaka gets.

But, why so many yaoist fics? I mean I am as much as a Kurama fangirl as the next one, but I'll admit I prefer him as hott, straight, confident, suave Youko or Shuichi. Togashi has often said that Hiei and Kurama are straight in general, good friends, healthy rivals, or what not, but why does everyone seem to, for lack of a better word, ignore this?

I mean... I want to read YYH fics too, but all I can ever see is Hi/Kur... But why does it feel like there is almost nothing for me to read out there? I mean.. How about any good Kur/Bo, Kur/Kei, Kur/Shiz, Kur/Yuk? I'll love well developed O.C./Sue fics too!

Oh well I guess...

To those of you who write Karasu/Kurama:

It's my favorite pairing, really it is. BUT IS THE MPREG NECISSARY? IS IT? No, it's not. IT'S NOT, DAMMIT. Here is how EVERY Karasu fic goes:

Karasu is magically back from the dead, he finds Kurama. Then he rapes him, and then Youko appears and kills Karasu. Then Kurama gets pregnant and has to raise Karasu's baby. OR Kurama and Karasu raise the baby together.

WTF.

KARASU IS NOT A FLUFFY BUNNY. HE WOULD NOT RAISE A CHILD WITH KURAMA.
....AND KURAMA WOULD NEVER GET PREGNANT ANYWAY!
WTF!

Dear Kurama/Botan fanfic writers,

Why is it every time I read one of these stories, it has to be romantic?

Kurama's not exactly the kind of guy to jump on a table in Meiou Academy and start belting out the lyrics of "I Think I Love You" by David Cassidy at the top of his lungs. Come on, people. He's got much more class than that!

And the lemons? Come on! Kurama's not going to sleep with anyone the first night. He's not like half of Hollywood, but that's a whole other ball game.

My suggestion to you is to get the facts straight and NOT to make Kurama out to be something he isn't and the same would go with Botan.

No love,
Cece

Dear YYH fandom:

WHAT THE SHIT IS THIS?!?

Sensui/Itsuki + Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On"= HELLS NO.

If I had to pick that song for a pairing in YYH

provided that it fit ANY YYH pairing at all

, it would be Yûsuke and Keiko. NOT THESE GUYS YOU STUPID FANBRAT.

I love the human fighters, I do.

But when a certain section of the fandom says the same thing, and hates on Kuwabara for being "too weak"*, Sensui for being "too strong"**, and Genkai and Kuroko for being "too female"***, I want to know: What the HELL do you want in a human YYH character?

Confused As Hell,

Hey-o, Kowareta here. This is my first post. Found this community a few weeks ago and have been reading and thinking of a rant to do. Here's something that may not get talked about often:

(Is behind cut because of its length.)

( Parody is for parody, not rantingCollapse )

Sometimes we Mary-Sue haters/pro-Kuwabara/pro-Mukuro/realistic yaoi/yuri fans are just as bad as the bashers and the Suethors.

There is, however, no accounting for those who a just cram those one-liners together in the pretense that it's a great joke.

If you're going to write parody, make sure it's really a parody.

Why do I feel as though I've been redundant through this entire rant? Probably because I was. Wait... ranting about people who rant...

Shutting up now.

Ahem.

Dear fanfic writer,

I understand why you would want to insert yourself into a YYH fanfic. After all, there are four sexy boys involved.

But when that insertion involves a girl that "was the sexiest thing on two feet. She had a beautiful body, thick legs, muscled arms, a banging booty and Double D chest, curly black hair to her curvious waist, bright green eyes, and caramel colored skin from being half black and was a complete lesbian," then we have a problem.

When this girl makes all four tantei blush from the jiggle of that "banging booty," then we have another problem.

I'm sorry, has anyone ever known either Kurama or Hiei to blush?

When this girl has a "black accent mixing with her Japanese that the boys loved about her," we have a third problem. I am black, and I speak Japanese. If I got offended by fanfics, I would certainly find this offensive. How does one attain a "black accent"? Is it just something black people are born with? I must have lost mine, then. Please to be finding it for me. Why would it turn any of our tantei on? I would certainly like to hear Japanese spoken with a "black accent". It sounds rather ethnic.

Female Sue aside, you have decided to incorporate the male version of yourself to suit your own yaoi fantasies. Female!Sue and Male!Sue are twins. Whatever, they're already sues, so make them whatever you'd like.

But when you make Male and Female!Sue just like the twins taken out of a Lindsay Lohan movie, in the way that one was brought up in LA and the other in London, you have a fourth problem.

"Ohhh…those boys. Well that’s, Yusuke the father of my child when I turn straight. That's my teddy bear, Kuwabara, my prince charming is Kurama and my little sex stud is Hiei" Faye introduced the boys with their own little introduction phase.

The above italicized lines should be forbidden from all YYH fanfics.

You just finished describing how attracted everyone was to your Female!Sue/Female!yourself. Please stop masturbating over my fandom by making them equally attracted to your Male!Sue/Male!yourself.

( The rest of this delves into the NC-17 territory of the fic.Collapse )

Please remove this crap of a fic off the internet, stop insulting my race by having them use bad grammar (I insult them enough), and just keep your hands away from fanfic in general.

Thank you, and don't come again,

A concerned ethnic Hiei-player

So you like Karasu/Kurama. Hooray! You've got plenty of stuff in canon to run with. However, in most fanfiction surrounding K/K I have trouble recognizing the characters as... you know, Karasu and Kurama.

Karasu loves Kurama, and because of this wants to kill him. Kurama hates Karasu. Am I the only one who doesn't see the happy fluffy rainbows here, and finds fics featuring them as such to be terribly OOC? Yes, they're pretty. That doesn't mean their love is as pure as new fallen snow omg.

Where's the darkfic? Where's the interesting psychological introspects on Karasu's twisted mind?

Note: This is not an anti-yaoi or even an anti-Karasu/Kurama rant, so please do not take it as such.

Current Mood: blah

This is what I don't get. The YYH fandom is large, with a very wide fan base. Those that saw the series when it first got released and those that are still watching it on cartoon network and wherever it's shown.

There are barely any canon pairings at all in the series if you want to hard draw the line, Yusuke/Keiko, Raizen/Unnamed woman, Atsuko/Yusuke's dad, Sutou/Kuroko, Sensui/Itsuki (Edit; thanks to akai_senshi for pointing it out and reminding me) and Toguro Ototo/Genkai. Hell if you want to be even harder then Raizen/Unnamed woman, Atsuko/Yusuke's dad and Sutou/Kuroko are the only true pairings you get to see, the rest are just spoken out and or hinted (in various degrees). So, my point is that just about all the pairings in the fandom are fanon pairings, they're not canon. Get it? Thank you.

Now, moving on. Due to YYH having so many fans out there, and if you're even somewhat active in the fandom you're bound to come across pairings that makes your eyes want to bleed, your brain break or that just squicks the hell out of you (I know I have). LIVE WITH IT. People aren't going to change just because you think the pairing is "non-plausible" or whatever. Bitching about a pairing isn't going to help your case or you find the fics/pics you want.

Speaking for myself I have to admit that the pairings I like are small and obscure and in order to find the stories I want I sometime have to go into areas that are overfilled with pairings that makes me want to spork my eyes out, but you know what, bitching about it doesn't help! Just get over it and ignore the shit you don't want to read and you'd make my life a hell of a lot easier since I won't have to listen to meaningless shit about how much this and that pairings suck.

It's not so hard, promise!

Thank you for showing up on my way to work the other day. It shows that your kind still co-exists with my person and happily cooperate with my train of thought. Although, I have one question for you: Why couldn't you show up sooner? Everytime I try to come up with something, you're never there for me. Suddenly out of the blue, you show up and I dread your manipulative ways with character dialogue and the crack pairing/threesome of Youko Kurama/Shuuichi/Kuronue and then not waiting for me to get a pen and a piece of paper to write you down on!

Well, I guess it's not entirely your fault. I was thinking about mary-sue character being phoenix demons and when Sensui talking about how mythical beasts revered as gods were just S-class demons when you came in unannounced.

Has anyone else had this happen to them?

Dear

writer/roleplayer/whaterver.

Hiei is not stupid! He is a demon of unknown age that has spent an unknown amount of years in the human world. He knows what a car is; he will not glare unhappily at the refrigerator because the strange evil 'demon' ate his beloved 'sweet snow'. He would know what a refrigerator is and why would he even call ice cream 'sweet snow'? At first before known what it was really called then yes, possibly but if someone informed him that it's called ice cream he will not keep calling it 'sweet snow'. He will not think that every unknown technical item is a demon and if he did he would slay it - PLEASE for the love of all that is holy stop making Hiei out to be a stupid kid that knows nothing!

No love,
Me.
