Yaoi Pairing Overload

Thu Oct 29, 2009, 9:44 PM
  • Mood: Rant
  • Watching: One Piece
Like most anime/manga fan girls, i too am a yaoi fan girl and for those of you who don't know what it is you can look it up on wikipedia, because it's rather complicated for me to explain (i'm bad at descriptions).

they say variety is the spice of life, well, the same can't be said about some anime and manga yaoi fandoms.

i've been on Y!Gallery a couple of times searching for pictures and stories including my favorite couples, but to my dismay, there's little to none.

and why, you may ask? because most yaoi fans only stick to the same old song and dance when it comes to some anime and manga fandoms! in other words, most yaoi fans draw fan art and/or write fan fiction for the most popular pairings (chances are it happens to be their favorite too) and it's really starting to oversaturate the yaoi sub-fandom, but the thing is, if a pairing has too much of a following it throws everything out of balance. a lot of yaoi fan artists and writers need to learn to even things out a little and try some pairings new to them every once and a while.

now i don't know about you, but there is such a thing as too much of a good thing, and that's very true about most anime and manga yaoi sub-fandoms.

'ooh, i don't wanna have to look all over the internet for stories and pictures that include my favorite pairing(s).'

well, that's why if you can't find any, you make your own.

'ooh! i don't wanna do that, i'm not a good writer or artist.'

well you can't please everybody. there are those who like to join the fun and there are those who just like to watch. but they don't call it fan art for nothing, and the same goes for fan fiction. so share the wealth and give it a shot first before you give up! and besides, nobody becomes good at something instantly, it take practice.

well, i think i made my point now and i hope more yaoi fans get the message.

Bye For Now
NekoGirl29.
