Hellsing wank over OTP!
There's a bit of a kerfluffle over in the hated_pairings community on livejournal, when someone rants about Hellsing pairings. Which is over here.

Of course, this then spills over into another post just recently put up. You know, I like Seras/Alucard. And the comments begin almost right away.

Wank splooging all around on this one, be careful if you're sitting in the first twenty rows.

The problem, of course, for having a community for hated character support or whatever is the fact that not all the fans are going to agree on who shouldn't be hated.

And thus does the spooge spill forth. I'm honestly surprised that that community isn't more wanky. It's a fine line they walk...

As for the matter at hand, I think we can all agree that Integra is The Sex, no matter what gender or orientation you have. (Okay, so that had nothing to do with the matter at hand. I just felt the need to mention it...)

Agreed. Integra is definitely teh HAWT. I can't argue with you on that issue.

Integra is teh sex in the same way that water is teh wet and fire is teh hot. The Sexness of Integra is a natural law.

Actually that comm *is* a raging river o' spooge. I mean we seem to have a group of people, many suffering from victim complexes, who will happily rip into other pairings while whining about how their personal faves are picked on.

And lets not even get into the poster lamenting over the lack of KamuixYuzuriha pairings who's sole basis for that pairing is untranslated scans she found on-line.

[Newsflash bitch, she has a canon love interest and it's NOT Kamui.]

Personally the wank started to flow when one poster is dead set on saying the 'Swine/sow' exchange was Integra and Enrico 'teasing' each other.

Okay, so maybe I need to read the posts on that comm a bit more closely. I tend to only glance at them because I don't care about half the things they talk about.

Kamui x Yuzuriha? Bwuh? But...but...Kamui and Fuuma (or Subaru if you swing towards that) and...Yuzuriha and...that dude whose name I can't remember, but he can see her inviso-doggie and...OUCH. It hurts.

Oooooh yeah ... I remember her. She made me go all "um, WTF?" that I delurked and tried talking sense to her, I seem to recall.

I like Kamui x Yuzuriha because I can call it KY. Hee hee.

Not tobe off-topic, but now I'm curious. Yuzuriha has a love interest? Where? I thought I read Vols. 1-14 of the manga thoroughly, but I never spotted that!

I never really saw hated_pairings that way...

But that is something to think about. When you're making "in defense of" or "pro-something" comms, you want to make sure you don't come off as having a victim complex and you're making the comm just to "get back at the mean people who hate your precious pets"...I'll have to be careful hated_character doesn't get that way.

People keep saying that about Integra... anyone want to back it up with a couple of pics and/or fics? Or even a general suggestion as to who she is?

Gratuitous Japanese fanart spam time!

Integral/Integra Hellsing, from the anime/manga Hellsing, is the leader of a suuuuper seeektrit organization in the UK that monitors and eliminates vampires. The basic idea is that she's the decendant of Abraham Van Helsing. Her pet/slave vampire, Alucard, is supposedly Dracula (the creator's take is that Van Helsing didn't destroy Dracula, but enslaved him).

She's really quite sexy. ... Spam spam spam.

Well, I always thought that Pip / Seras was too comedic to be a serious pairing. For UST by the shitloads there's always Alucard / Integra and that weird sexual tension they build when Alucard makes Integra give him explicit orders to kill.

**wuvs the Hellsing manga**

Dude, didn't Seras eat Pip alive?

Hellsing fans can get really vicious over pairings. It's one of the many reasons I stay far, far away from it, and sit here in my own corner with my manga and unfinished EnricoxIntegral pr0n.

A question for the Hellsing fandom
[info]iczer6
2004-06-22 03:37 am UTC (link)
Now this has been bothering me for a while....

Could we please, please, PLEASE pick a spelling for Seras/Celes/Ceres and *stick with it*?

Lets have a vote or something so we can all agree on what spelling is best and make it easier to find pairings we like.

Who's in?

The first rule of Fandom is that there is no fandom. And the second rule is that there will never be a universally accepted romanization of a Japanese name. Ever, ever, ever, mein fruend.

Usually, when the offical American versions pick a spelling, everyone gives up and uses that spelling. Hellsing fans apparently think they're too cool to make sense.

I vote Seras. Mau.

Well that's also partly to do with Hirono (the writer/artist) himself. It seems he can't keep her name straight in the manga, either from what I've seen. I tend to waffel between Ceras and Seras, myself. But, I can see splooging all over about it, and I've seen people act like spelling the police girl's name a different way would brign about the 10 plagues or something.

Ah well.





(note: I'm one of those people who liked the first three eps, but then thought the rest was a waste of time. The manga is MUCH better, imho.)

Holy crap. It only took a few hours for that discussion to turn into a WANK EXPLOSION.

While yeah, the very concept on which the community is founded is pretty much a powder keg, I haven't seen it get this stupid intense. Normally it's a fairly low-key place, even considering the grand Kamui/Yuzuriha "But the artbook says so!" fiasco mentioned earlier. Doubly surprising given that this is Hellsing generating so much wank debate. I've encountered a few scary Hellsing shippers before, but not like this. My little fandom is all grown up!

Anyway, I just think it's really funny that a post "defending" a relatively popular pairing--I hesitate to say "rightfully so", but in that particular community, perhaps it was--should generate so much bitching.

I don't know much about Hellsing beyond the few chapters I read in the first volume...and this has nothing to do with the wank, really...but seeing as how I'm the world's biggest Sephiroth fan, I must beg and find out if you know what pic your icon came from. Sephiroth being that much of teh sex is required to be on my desktop. *wibble*

[grabs a box of kleenex]

Something that will always amaze me and never fail to entertain me are these people who seem to think that

a) they have to compile a dissertation about how their pairings don't or do work based on what is (in their subjective mind) canon

b) assume that anyone else really cares that their pairing is teh kanun!

c) everyone else will agree with them about teh kanun!

d) people are going to spend all their time sitting around defending why they are writing hot man/woman/gay/lesbien/incest sex instead of...oh, you know...WRITING IT!

Is Alucard hot? Is Walter hot? I'm soooo putting them together in a fic if I goddamn well want to and I don't care if the Hellsing purists are rolling in their graves!

I dont' need no stinkin' canon...

Bring on teh non canon mansex!
