Yeah, exactly. And while fandom is excellent, sometimes I feel like, especially with prince of tennis, I have to go back to canon and figure out what I really think. It's actually a problem that happens to me a lot with Mizuki, because fandom his this little tendency to make him into a woman. But you really ought to watch the OVA... that episode is ridiculous. XD;

Really? Even when I first saw it, and I was super resisting wanting to ship them, I couldn't help but see it a little. The way Shishido totally melts when Gakuto yells at him, and he doesn't snap back at him, but is just like "...see?" And the way he responds to Gakuto's sweets/temptress face. And just... everything about the two of them together. XD; It's adorable.
