[Other Fandoms] Bishounen/shoujo Land

Eh I suppose I'll be the first one. Vast majority of us have had at least one and if you haven't then I salute you or you didn't watch as many movies or TV like I did lol.

Figure I'll answer all 3 questions in one go. Right now, I can't say for certain that I have a crush. During Pokémon XY, Serena kind of fit the bill with the Blue eyes(I had Blue eyes when I was very young. They're Blue/Green, if not outright Green thanks to my Irish/Scottish blood and anyone with Blue Eyes or Red Hair appeals to me). When she cosplayed as Ash I was like holy mother of $&$# and honestly I liked her better with short hair. Add the fact she had Sylveon(one of my favorite Fairies) and she earned a spot in my list of crushes. Misty is my other Pokémon crush because well... Red Hair. That and she didn't take any crap from immature Ash and shares a phobia of Bugs(I don't like Bugs either).

Early on in my childhood, I had a crush on Gadget(see spoiler). In many ways she related to me because she was smart but her mind was always thinking in a daydream/OCD kind of way. I've never been diagnosed with OCD mind you but she was one of my first crushes. PS: She had Blue Eyes.



Katara in AtLA(Avatar Last Airbender) also fit the Blue Eye bill. Korra in the sequel also did too. Sabine Wren in Star Wars Rebels was a unique crush in that it wasn't necessarily the eyes but the fact it's Star Wars and she's Mandalorian. Just about anyone in Mandalorian Armor, Boba Fett included, is by definition hot. Sabine just took it to another level by kicking ass and taking names. Speaking of Star Wars, I have to give Clone Wars some love with Ahsoka Tano. Even though I'm too old for her, just something about dual-wielding Lightsabers that makes my skin tingle. Kind of coincidental that in Star Wars Rebels my two Star Wars crushes head off together in search of a character who vanished in the series finale. If you haven't seen Rebels and think I spoiled things.., too bad. It's been out for long enough as far as I'm concerned.

The only crushes that don't quite fit the Blue Eye/Red Hair mold were Yumi Ishiyama and Aelita Schaefer in the series Code Lyoko. Wasn't necessarily their looks but their personality and traits that attracted me. Plus the show was underrated, even if it's corny and suffered from a low budget.

I also have two video game crushes, both of whom are in the same franchise. Zelda is frankly gorgeous in whatever game she is in. It's an honest debate about which variant of her looks the best, but BotW certainly helped her immensely in the looks department. The other crush I have is Saria from OoT. Again with the Blue eyes and the fact her song is my favorite of all time.

TLDR: If the character has Blue Eyes and/or Red Hair, you will obtain my attention.

Oh and I forgot to add my suggestion for the marriage prospects. Its controversial in nature, and partly why Korra soured on me but what about the marriage prospects of Korra and Asami in Legend of Korra? Asami is an Industrialist with vasts amount of wealth at her disposal and having lost her Father in the aftermath of Book 4, she's got no family to speak of, leaving just her friends, one of whom she has a deep connection with in Korra. Korra is the Avatar so her getting things is pretty much out of respect. I think the couple would actually work in all honesty. What do you all think?

I'm going to join this so count me in but I'm on mobile right now and literally don't have the patience to type my every waifu/husbando!! ( ；´Д｀)

Thank you for coming. I have only just begun watching Avatar: The Last Airbender, and like it. I haven't gotten to the Legend of Korra yet. It sounds like either Korra or Asami or both would have very interesting marriage prospects. I had not thought of comparing the compatability of two characters together, but if that is something that interests you then more power to you. That would be an awesome thing to share here! Unleash that imagination!

My pairing isn't new. In fact, the writers laid the groundwork over 4 seasons, particularly the final two when both Korra and Asami had moved on from their competition over their mutual friend in Mako. In the series finale, they have them standing next to each other at the opening to the Spirit World gazing into each other's eyes, implying that they may start a romantic relationship. Putting political or spiritual beliefs aside, just looking at their background and prospects makes the likelihood and success of it actually tenable.

It's funny because at the end of Season 1, you would have thought Korra would have ended up with Mako based on the fact that Korra basically swooped in and stole him right under Asami's nose lol. As for ATLA, tons of shippings in that one. How far into it have you gotten because I don't really want to spoil anything.

Oh and I must post this video. View at your own risk but it's really funny. Basically the genesis of Korra X Asami and its all thanks to Katara's grandkids(so I spoiled ATLA a tiny bit).

*drool's* I literally did this one for the sake of hotness xDDD

She's so tender and pretty...i'm so glad she exists......^_____^ Not many other things in this world can make me smile as much as Korrina does. She's just such a special girl~ <3

That is so beautiful LadyJirachu! I wish I was as talented as you. You have made something fit for a vivacous, attractive and cool pokemon trainer like Korrina!

...I thought Korra was gonna end up with a girl though :< Thats what I read. I woulda liked that....(btw, i haven't watched the cartoon a lot)

But on a happy note....

Recommend giving the show a look. Their relationship doesn't really start to take off until Book 3 though. Book 1 and 2 they kind of fight over Mako until Korra decides to break up with him. His brother Bolin... man what a roller coaster ride for him. Basically gets dumped by Korra before he could even ask her out on a date. In Book 2, he ends up dating a psycopathic Princess in Northern Water Tribe before falling for the daughter and niece of Chief Beifong in Opal(her character by the way is inspirational. You might like her more than Korrina and I'm not lying).

Ready to reply!!

1) Who is your Bishounen/ Bishoujo? If you currently do not have one, name a character that was special to you in the past.

2) What is/ was it about him/ her that makes them special?

3) Name a really attractive character!! This doesn't necessarily have to be a crush, just characters that have designs you really like or find interesting.


I.. I'm probably going to end up updating this at some point, aren't I? :x

LadyJirachu said:

Urrrrrr, I don't think I could love ANYONE more than I love Korrina. Also, I rather not get into the personal details, but I kind of only want Korrina to be my super huge female crush :/

Besides that, I felt insulted reading that I could like someone more than her. If you only knew my feelings for Korrina, you'd know that the idea of 'liking someone better' is HEART BREAKING for me :( No offense. But she really does hold special meaning to me. Sorry to be blunt. But I don't see her as 'disposable' or anything like that....she means a ton to me, like she was a real person.....(and if that sounds a bit too 'obsessive', well, too bad, thats just how it is >_<;;; )

And for the questions....


1) Who is your Bishounen/ Bishoujo? If you currently do not have one, name a character that was special to you in the past.

Men: In the past, i've had many male crushes. I don't have any right now.

Woman: Korrina....Just.......Korrina. The most special woman and honestly crush ever to come into my life <3 And my only current crush obsession.

2) What is/ was it about him/ her that makes them special?
(this is about korrina) She's helped me with my autism, and inspired me. A lot. She's driven me past crippling phobias and my years of depression. She gives me a sense of hope in this world. She's beautiful and strong and has the most amazing personality. Her arc is just touching too. Honestly Korrina is my everything <3

3) Name a really attractive character!! This doesn't necessarily have to be a crush, just characters that have designs you really like or find interesting.

I'm gonna go with N from Pokemon Black and White for this one. He's a pretty cute looking guy, not gonna lie, but also, I relate to him on a personal level (super innocent and rather sheltered away from the real world).

Please don't think i'm weird for being attached to a fictional character. I'm autistic, and sometimes the 'strangest' things help people on the spectrum. Autism is hard to live with :( If Korrina helps me handle it better and keep calm more about the world around me, I don't see why I shouldn't be a little attached to her....

That said, i'm trying to calm my nerves about the triggering post in this club....to show that korrina really is a good thing for me.....(afterall, if she's special to me, i guess i shouldn't let opposing opinions about it get to me so much?)

My intent is never to offend so keep that in mind. That said, I thought you might like Opal given her circumstances and development within the series. Its obvious your love for Korrina knows no bounds but there are other Female Characters besides Korrina. If you open yourself up to other possibilities, you might come to find that you can have more than one Female crush and I felt Opal might be one you'd come to like. If not, this will be the last time I bring it up. In time, Opal may become a crush for me since her Green eyes can incapacitate you like Kaa in the Jungle Book.

Question: Do live action characters count too? I'd feel bad about leaving Klaus out because he's so adorable! :c

1) Who is your Bishounen/ Bishoujo? If you currently do not have one, name a character that was special to you in the past.

Girls: Haruhi Suzumiya (TMoHS), Rapunzel (Tangled), Yoko Littner (Gurren Lagann), CC (Code Geass), Rikku Al Bhed (FFX/X-2; my first female crush), Celty (Durarara!!).
Boys: Edward Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist), Snow Villiers (FFXIII), Aidou (Vampire Knight), Zero (Vampire Knight), Lelouch (Code Geass), Izaya (Durarara!!), Shizuo (Durarara!!), Ikuto (Shugo Chara!).

(That's all I can think of atm)

2) What is/ was it about him/ her that makes them special?

I have a lot up there, so I'll just use Rikku because she is special to me. Rikku was my first female crush. She was actually one of the reasons I actually found out I was bi as well.

3) Name a really attractive character!! This doesn't necessarily have to be a crush, just characters that have designs you really like or find interesting.

Vidia from the Tinkerbell movies. I don't have a crush on her, but I really find her attractive... weirdly enough. Like, it's not so much her appearance, but I feel like I'm attracted to her personality-wise. She seems so bad ass and doesn't take anything lying down either. That's what I like most about her!

I think "Shipping" is a fan's way of promoting their favorite characters while bolstering one's interest within said series/franchise and some people go to the extreme to promote it. When things don't go their way, they lash out(like Amourshippers after Episode XY105... or the infamous Dance Episode). In doing so, they view other shippings as a threat and therefore the whole incarnation of "Shipping Wars" was started. Its also indicative of the polarization of our society such that they can't come to grips that other people have differing opinions or views, including differing views when it comes to Shipping. When it comes to Pokemon specifically, I will admit that I've never even heard of the term Shipping until I started watching XY/XYZ ~5 years or so ago and started catching up on the Pokemon Anime that I had largely missed out on for the past 10+ years. It was then I realized that people really can be obsessive and polarized, bordering on intolerance. If you can't tolerate differing opinions, then what does that say about you?

LadyJirachu said:

I have a question for this club.

Why are shippers often such awful people if love is supposed to be a GOOD thing?

I'm sick of all the drama that happens online. So sick of it. All I want is to go on here and make friends and have fun :(

And not see things I BELIEVE in be VILLAINIZED >:(

Stephen Sondheim once said that, "The only reason to write is from love."

You are right love is supposed to be good. It lifts us up, makes us see in people on the outside and within, see beauty in art and the world around us. Love excites us, makes us create things, holds us together, makes us to do brave things. It can also make us some desperate things like be jealous sure. But don't worry, here we strive towards the light.

I do my best to keep this club full of love. Come here, and make new friends. You are very welcome. Take those shoes off and relax!

I think we shouldn't bad mouth people too much in this thread, either. It makes me feel uneasy x_x;

I may post more adorable Korrina blingees soon~x3;

I like the sound of that! Thank you for new positive energy. Let's move on forward. Adorable Korrina blingees sound awesome.

Here is some LOVELY Korrina stuff! :D

...
I never did get around to making a korrina blingee with the ppg on it for this v-day :/ maybe i'll do that next year lol

Lately, I've been obsessed with Kuja from Final Fantasy (forgot what game). He is actually one of my childhood crushes. <3 I love him so much more again because he's such a pretty boy! >w<
