Let Me Tell You About My Best Friend...

Name the five unlikeliest (but successful) canon friendships.

1.) Sokka & Zuko. Never in a million years would I have seen that coming.

2.) Sarah & Casey. The slow, almost behind the scenes build of their friendship - from interdepartmental rivalry to having each other's backs - is one of my favorite things about Chuck.

3.) HIMYM. I think just the show itself deserves a mentions, for writing a show about three couples (or two couples, one dude, and a mystery woman) and having each character have a friendship with all the other characters. It is truly a show about a group of friends.

4.) Black Star and Soul. I did not expect them to be BFFs, or to get the attentions their BFF-ness did.

5.) Sumire and the English journalist. They start out disliking each other (they were just too alike) and end up friends who look out for each other.

Sokka and Zuko are one of those I never would have expected, but now that it's happened, it seems so natural!


I know! I feel the same way.

I love how Ohkubo subverted the usual shonen patterns by making the two boys BFFs and then leaving the rivalry business to Black Star and Maka.

One more reason why Ohkubo is AWESOME! (have you read the latest chapter?)

And I feel I must comment on the swath of Sailor Moon icons you know have - you're really digging that series at the moment, aren't you?

Yes I have read the latest chapter! (OMG Maka, every time I think you can't possibly get more awesome...)

And yeah, I've been on a huge Sailor Moon kick lately. Mostly due to the massive amount of gay in the series. :D

I know! Maka just keeps raising the bar for herself.
