Recommended Fanfics: Sanji x Nami from One Piece

Fiona — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 17:25:39 +0000

Happy February! Can you believe it’s already the 33rd day of 2012? I didn’t realize it until this morning when the calendar was changed (yep I’m a day behind ). January sure had flown by quick and I’m still vigorously working on my new year’s resolutions, bet it’s the same for minna-san. Anyway, this time around for my fanfic recommends, I present Sanji and Nami from the infamous One Piece manga/anime.

I’ve been an avid fan of the pairing since my first encounter with the series many, many moons ago. They are adore together and compliment each other with their dreams (All Blue and creating a map of the entire world (the One Piece universe that is), crew colors (blue and orange) and childhood stories (working against or for).

Okay, many may say that Sanji would fawn over any woman that steps in his path. Though, this is valid on the surface, however, Nami holds a special place in his heart. This is evident when he officially joins the crew because she was in danger. He also drops everything and goes to her immediately when in need. Another factor would be how he addresses her, Nami-san is used unlike the other ladies in the series such as Robin-chan or Vivi-chan. Oda-sensei (mangaka of One Piece) had once said, Nami is precious to him and chan is mainly for fun.

On the flip side, Nami also gives him a unique treatment and not to any other male crew member by calling him Sanji-kun. From my understanding, the honorific (kun), this mainly used with a male that you are close with such a friend, classmate, younger brother or boyfriend. The kanji (君) used to write kun in Japanese is the same used to write kimi – the familiar form of “you” often used between sweethearts.¹ Do we feel the love between them?

Recommended Fanfics: Zero x Yuuki from Vampire Knight

Fiona — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 17:19:30 +0000

I’ve been fond of the Zero Kiryu x Yuuki Cross pairing ever since the Vampire Knight anime was watched. Not only is their their relationship touching and bittersweet, but also complex and complicated, which are the key factors to why they are a favorite. Also, thanks to them, my liking of the angst romance genre had bloomed. I truly believe relationships will grow stronger and will be treasured more if turbulence and obstacles were to be experienced. This will bring forth true happiness and fluff that we all love. Here is my list in no specific order:

Recommended Fanfics: Naruto Shippuden – Kakashi x Sakura

Fiona — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 14:30:26 +0000

I love Hatake Kakashi to bits and always delighted to read a well-written fanfic regarding his adventures, as well as , fandom fantasies. As an avid fan for many years, it never, ever occurred to me to pair sensei with Sakura…mine had been set on Naruto or Sasuke and her like most. It wasn’t until recently, mainly out of curiosity, I had picked up a KakaSaku story. To my surprise, the read was fabulous and the couple seem naturally fitting, nothing odd due to age, mentor-student status, etc. Well..age really doesn’t matter as long they are legal and it never has in my little world. The relationship between Kakashi and older Sakura was affectionate, complex and beautiful, they are my OTP in Naturo now.

So without much ado, here are my recommended fanfics for KakaSaku:

It has been almost two years since I become acquainted with Gokusen and I still adore the pairing between Sawada Shin and Yamaguchi Kumiko…just cannot get enough of them. I truly hope that Morimoto-sensei will continue their love story and fill the void for us hardcore fans. Though, I am grateful of the short continuation which she had provided so far. Below are a few more favorites that I wanted to share (in no specific order), let’s spread the Shinkumi rabu rabu:

It’s been quite some time since I had shared some fanfics, let’s have some Ichigo x Rukia fun. Though, romance has not spark between these two in the manga and anime, their special and unique bond will never shattered. You can probably feel the excitement (most definitely love) whenever Ichigo calls or looks for Rukia!

Time for another round of recommended fanfics…. Today’s pairing will be the talented Chiaki Shinichi and the beloved hentai Noda Megumi, hehe. It’s been a while since I had seen Nodame Cantabile; really miss watching Chiaki-sama on screen. I hope there will be either a second season or another special in the near future, drama-wise.

Happy Saturday, everyone!!! So glad it is, the last few days have been just soo hectic….

Finally had a chance to organize my cluttered bookmark list in Firefox.

I’ll share a few of my favorites throughout the week. They’re quite well-written and holds the true dynamics of the characters. Today, I’ll start with Gokusen, the Shin and Kumiko pairing:
