yaoi. yaoi. yaoi. damn, as i type in my words for this entry, i still find it hard to believe that I AM POSTING IN A JOURNAL ENTRY FOR YAOI. omo (**'.'**)
back in high school, if my memory serves me right, yaoi genre gave me the creeps. well, yeah, i watched and loved Kyou Kara Maoh! and even fell in love with Wolfram there (that's why I used his name and a bit of his personality when i wrote a story for the computer class project) but isn't KKM considered shounen ai? okay, tbh, i have no idea the differences between yaoi and shounen ai but is the latter just a, let's say, less intense one? bah, i am not in the mood to google the difference.
point is, even though I loved Wolfram, i never found it in me to ship him with Yuuri. (but now that i recall something, why did i use 'yuuram' as a part of my email address? tsk, i swear i don't ship 'em tho!) i prefer Wolfram going with his (former, thanks to Yuuri) betrothed, Elizabeth.
once i stepped into college though, my view on yaoi changed. gradually. thanks to EXO. so many ships to sail, so many OTPs to follow. gah. although i have been introduced to real-life yaoi ships/OTPs (thanks to the mother of all kpop ships, YunJae. i still remember watching 'Dangerous Love' gawking at the scenes unfolding before me), I never took much interest because i find it weird thinking or visualizing two men getting together, confessing their undying love to one another. that's why when i go through fan forums of EXO, i always scoff and roll my eyes at the comments. typical fangirls going over the top.
i started reading ot12 fics, especially the ones written by
greyskies268 (one note worthy creation of this author is
when exo switched leaders). somewhere in my reading of crack fics, i got into reading TaoHun. then to XiuHan. then Krishan (which became, and still is, my One and Only Pairing, even after what's happened with the gang). by the time when I've ventured into KrisBaek, Kaisoo, KrisKai, KrisYeol, KrisHo, KaiXing, KaiChen, and KrisChen, it was already too late. i found myself getting dangerously addicted (woah, is it me or is this entry is starting to sound like a confession speech? XD)
to make it obvious, EXO ruined my innocence. (peace ;D)
noticing that i've got quite bored with what has been posted on asianfanfics, well, i decided to try out reading yaoi mangas. well, i've read almost all the unimaginable acts on text already, so i've thought that perhaps reading with graphics won't hurt.
of course, being a very picky one, i only chose to read those with superb graphics and one shots, since i didn't want to dwell on reading too long. now, i find myself spazzing and fangirling over two fictional men's love story. gah, perhaps should i make a review for what i've finished reading lately? yeah, i should do that. ^.^
so far, i've finished Koishitte Daddy, Love Kids (a sequel of KD, but it focuses more on the kid Rintarou and his childhood friend), and Totally Captivated (plus the sequel doujinshi's of it, Totally Captivated - Totally Spying on them, Totally Captivated - How to Live with a Beast, and Totally Captivated - The Last episode. i still can't find in me to read the other doujin though). i'm still in search of other manga/manhwas. though, i think i'm more into manhwas now? it's just that i think manhwa creators make their graphics intricate than mangakas. of course, i still love mangas, since i came to know it first than manhwas.
oh well, i still find it a waste i only had the courage to venture on yaoi mangas/manhwas now. -.- i guess i have to start making up for the lost time, neh? ^.^
oh yeah, can anyone take a guess on where i got the entry title? jaha, ahem, Kyou Kara Maoh!
