Current mood: the end of the world

My dvd is broken. My dvd of episodes 63-71. It won't play. On anything. I don't know what happened.


I made Senbatsu screencaps instead. I need to feel the love.






Look at his face. Obviously there can be only one reason for such an expression...



Buchou is back. Because he missed all the lingering looks they used to exchange, and now they are making up for lost time. THEY HAVE EYES FOR NO ONE BUT EACH OTHER. :(( LOOK.




*random different ep*



Either Tezuka has joined the yakuza or he is cosplaying Yagyuu.



HE LOOKS LIKE HE NEEDS TO BE SNUGGLING SOMEONE SOMETHING. There's plenty of room in the bed, buchou.



"Buchou..."
Ryoma has just realised that this is the first opportunity he's had to talk to Tezuka alone since he came back.



Look how EAGER he is. :x



Also how ickle. But, but, how can you look at this and say he has no feelings for his Tezuka?



He hangs on every word buchou says! :((



And Tezuka smiles with him. While they have conversations about getting up early and fresh air and how amazing it is to be back together and so close. OK so I may be exaggerating that last part.



"If you tell me to be serious, buchou, I will." Only Tezuka brings out Ryoma's real determination.



THIS SMILE IS ALL FOR RYOMA. For the doubters: you can tell it's a smile because...



...this isn't.



Tezuka is the only one to provoke real, important emotion out of Ryoma. Other people get apathy, vague annoyance, vicious glee, amusement, etc. But Ryoma lets Tezuka see his real feelings - lets him see who he really is. Because he trusts Tezuka. That's HUGE, because Ryoma doesn't trust easily; his father dismisses him at best and mocks the hell out of him at worst, and apart from Karupin he's never had a friend in the world before Seigaku. But he trusts Tezuka; Tezuka was the first person to beat him without humiliating him, the first stronger opponent to take him seriously.



"I still have to beat you, buchou!"

HOW CAN YOU NOT FEEL THE LOVE?! *bursts into tears*

I FEEL THE LOVE. And now I have the incredible urge to watch those episodes all over again despite the fact that I have a thick stack of homework.

...Oh well.

Ryoma goes to Tezuka's house and kneels in front of him in his bedroom and there is symbolism with a little fish frantically swimming after a big one! I LOVE THEM SO SO MUCH WAH.

Ahhhhh everyone is trying to get me to watch the anime again! And I'm feeling the pull. Darn it.

But you know what? Senbatsu was like one big mess of TezuRyoSanaAto, with some Sakaki/Hanamura on the side. And Kirihara being the adorable demon baby that he is.

Thanks for reminding me of what I love about TeniPuri.

Watch iiiiit! I am in the middle of a rewatch, which was why I was trying to watch Hyoutei ;_; Hopefully we wil get the broadband connected in the next couple of days so I can download; just being without Those Episodes is making me wibble.

It is awful because those are the best TezuRyo episodes! The part where Ryoma is all *breathy voice* "Buchou..." and accepts all Tezuka's burdens and they communicate through tennis. *wails* It's the best part of the anime, at least for a month or two until Nationals comes out. Hopefully parental unti D will connect the broadband tomorrow so I can download the fansubs I CANNOT BE WITHOUT THESE EPISODES.

/babble

Woohoo! :D Their relationship is the main interpersonal subplot of the anime. It's underlies the whole thing, and yet mystifyingly few people ship it.

Mmmm... I would probably love this pairing if Ryoma didn't look so little. Age differences in pairings really bother me, so while I love the TezuRyo dynamic, the idea of shipping them as a pairing still makes me uncomfortable. I do see the potential for it, and the subtext is definitely there, but Ryoma would have to be quite a bit older for the age difference not to matter to me. And partly it is just because Tezuka acts so much older than he is. FujiRyo doesn't bother me, for instance. Well, it does a little. But not as much. It's not the literal difference, it's the perceived difference. Tezuka and Ryoma feel to me like there are light years between them in maturity, which to me feels like a very significant age gap. Fuji is less obviously... grown up, shall we say? lol

Then again, I think, regardless of age, Ryoma is a hell of a lot tougher than a lot of people write him.

*amused* Hmm I wasn't planning to start a discussion about it... it may take me a day or two to respond to that, as I am working and it will have to wait till the weekend. While I love Tezuka, and Ryoma, Seigaku isn't really my team. I don't have terribly strong feelings about any Seigaku pairings, so I will, I think, be rather handicapped in my argument.

The age difference isn't the only factor that bothers me, though... for one thing I think that ultimately Tezuka and Ryoma are too much alike. And while that does not necessarily preclude a romantic relationship, it does mean that it's not the type of pairing that normally interests me. Their dynamic interests me in other ways, but not as a pairing. However, I will read and take note and answer your post when I have time. ;)

...And I realize that I sound rather contradictory there, so... eh, I may have to make a post of my own to answer yours. Erm, later. LOL
