(L) Kyou Kara Mao! - Discussion

[hunterx]

I'm a guy and yes I prefer lesbian action over malehomo action but what has either go to do with KKM? It is supposed to be funny, the only suggestion about two males getting together resulted in a fight which is what you expect from two non gay men haha. I saw more gayness in Getbackers than I've seen in KKM so far

true but the yaoi doujinshika prefer to yaoi-fy shounen titles 9/10 times (check out comiket catalogue and see how many shounen series end up in yaoi dj compared to shoujo ones) ^^;

Spoiler for May include some small spoilers from ep3:

Heres what I think after seeing ep3. Yuuri is not gay. The reason why he wont take back what he said to pretty boy was because he thinks that by taking back his word he isnt a man. A man should stick with what he has said which he believes. On the other hand I Think pretty boy is fascinated with Yuuri and which he doesn't know it yet will in time like/love Yuuri later on. The Shounen ai feeling wont go away but i think Yuuri and pretty boy will never get together.

well considering it's only 10 scheduled episodes...it's kinda a foregone conclusion.
Also KKM is not yaoi or boy love ; it's based on a series of fantasy novels for girls (there is some boy love subtext but nothing solid).

I'm just enjoying this one for what it but don't really have any strong urge to slash these guys since they kinda doing it for me (pout)

I'm not sure if a series like this can be rapped up in 10 episodes, most series are at least 13 (I've never heard of a series being 10 episodes long. I've seen series that are 12, 13 or 14 episodes but I don't know of any that are 10)... so I won't believe that it's 10 episodes long until I see the 10th episode.. If it is only 10 episodes long that's depressing Where exactly does this idea of it being 10 episodes long come from? I can't read Japanese... does it come from the main site?

Anyway, just thought I'd let everyone know Anime-Keep & Ayu have released episode 1 now ^__^

[Secca]

I do hope is more than 10 episodes too, I cannot get enough of Gunther, he's so funny. ^^

[Dagger]

Yeah, 10 does seem like a rather arbitrary number. If they don't manage to wrap the story up in that span of episodes, maybe there'll be a second season....?

(I'm really getting ahead of myself here, but oh well).

[Grifis]

It does mention only 10 talks on the main site. I hope there are more hidden somewhere. I need more KKM goodness than just 10 eps.

Episode 4 looks kinda fun based on the preview from episode 3. ^^

[Karala]

hmmm... welll if it's only 10 I've already seen half the series! I really don't see how this will be done in 5 more episodes unles it had some weird kind of unfinished ending to it... there's no way Yuuri can become a capable King of Mao in that amount of time, there isn't enough character development time O_o

[Secca]

the plot was pretty packed tho i think. From episode 1 to 3 so far, there wasn't any filler episode where nothing happen.

Spoiler for episode 3:

and on the episode 3 he already got sent back to Japan, I think the plot is moving pretty fast.

I want to see Yuuri's mom reaction on the thong. ^^

[Karala]

I NEED to know what this site says:
http://cult.jp/papiko14/union.html

Can anyone read Japanese? O__O

...

I sure know I can't...

[musouka]

It's called the Fuufu [Married Couple] Union. It's a union for those that like Wolfram and Yuuri as a couple. Think of it like a fanlisting--you know what those are right?

The list of requirements is basically stuff like "You must like Yuuri! You must like Wolfram! You must like Wolfram and Yuuri [together]!", ect, ect.

[Karala]

thanks musouka I sort of thought that's what it was ^__^

[cindialai]

does anyone know if Kyou Kara mao is popular or not popular in Japan?

[dreamless]

episode 5 is simply sooooo good, crazy parody and crazy shounen-ai stuff and crazy... well... insanity

[chamelean75]

Did anyone but me realize that any time the maou touched water, he gets transferred between worlds?

[divert]

It can't be just 'any' water.. he didn't transfer when he was in the bath remember.

[Karala]

yeah episode 5 was full of shounen-ai hints ^__^

Spoiler:

I could be wrong on this, but wasn't Wolf mad at Yuuri for dancing with girls and stuff on the boat? And did I hear him say something about Yuuri being cute? I can't be sure *shrugs* then there was the part where Wold and Yuuri both blushed, hehe... my fav part of the episode ^__^

Spoiler:

yup, Volf is obviously VERY jealous of Yuuri dancing with other girls, also this time Yuuri slept on Volf's lap

my fav part is how Yuuri summoned a skeleton from all those rubbish
