Plus the Orb!Athrun uniform makes me think that he's willing to stay by Cagalli's side, he took Kira's place as commander. He really has no reason to be in Orb except for Cagalli's sake, so I still think AsuCaga has a fairly good chance. Either way: They're still the most popular out of all the SEED pairings, or should I say heterosexual pairings, as indicated by a Newtype Romance Poll a few months ago. Here's a picture of the wedding specifically: Last edited by Naive; 2007-02-12 at 13:16. |

First if anyone's seen some of my previous posts about this subject you'll all know I'm an Asumey supporter. BUT even with that in mind Athrun and Cagalli still have hope. Even seeing the ring off her finger Athrun said it himself "It's okay, we're still headed in the same direction" which I would interprete as their paths will meet again at some time. Athrun would be willing to wait for her because that's just they type of noble self sacrificing person he has been throughout the series(es).

I still think that is the best couple in GS history with Fllay being the best develope of all the GS characters.

And remember, according to Morosawa, ShinnLuna = OTP in Destiny Quote:
I don't know how popular KiraFllay is, I know YzakFllay is really popular for some insane reason. But I do agree that KiraFllay is one of the best developed SEED relationships, at least in terms of how people would act in that relationship given the circumstances. Fllay's death = the saddest moment in SEED for me, especially when you see how happy Kira and Fllay were seconds before |

So...um. How does that pertain to Athrun and Cagalli?

Anyways, I've always been an avid Athrun and Cagalli fan, so go Athrun and Cagalli. |

We should have a Fllay clique on this board, LOL.
Bah, Shinn Luna? Although I predicted that they would become a couple I didn't like the way they were suddenly slapped together like an afterthought that was Destiny... And yes, WTH is up with the runner ups? Gil Rey makes more sense!

^ lol, lets keep the YAOI stuff away. Cagali and Athrun do make a good couple, though i think they were more romantically together in GS than GSD. Kira and Lacus are still the super couple. Plus...who cares about shin, his head wasn't screwed on from the start till the end, well till episode 51 maybe. T_T

Um...romantically together in SEED? they only got together like, at the end of the series...and Cagalli was still mooning over Kira and Athrun's, um, confused...if any, the start of Destiny, they were shown to be at least have feelings for each other that didn't look too forced unlike in SEED...
At least some Newtype fans think that Kira and Lacus are no match against the Cagalli and Athrun pairing, so I guess the sane people still have some hope. I do hope Morosawa sees this as a wake up call...

I dunno...I'm already losing respect for Morosawa...(( I'm still holding out some to the fact that she is the brain-child for the later Cyber Formula OVAs...which were some of the finest racing series I've seen )), but if she panders to the fans and decide to bring back Athrun/Cagalli on a whim of a thought, I'll lose total respect for her.
The issue now is not that the pairing is doomed (( it never was, not until Athrun officially proposes to someone not Cagalli )), but rather holding out each other and purposely creating a distance, because there's just a gap between them that will either resolve in a break-up, or reconcilation on a stronger basis, once both of them can truly fill the void of their relationship. Standard dorama stuff if you ask me. Due to differences that is both emotional and rhetoric, both parties "break-up" as they walk their paths, searching for both questions and answers to their heart's call. Some end up reconciled, some ends up broken, but the feeling is always there. That's why most multi-love doramas today have this sort of "break-up but not-break-love yet there's no guareentee of future-marriage" relationships for the minor characters. If Morosawa can address Athrun/Cagalli in that manner, then it'll be fine. They may or may not find a future and companionship together, but the love is there. There's that kind of relationship as well. Bittersweet, probably sad, but that's life. If they just "we're back together like GSD never happened"....Morosawa should be banned from ever writing and Bandai should FORCE Fukuda to pick up a goddamn pen again.

Meh.. as much as I like Athrun/Meyrin, I think there's still hope for AsuCaga. It's kind of a thing... that would happen; I'm not exactly sure. But I do hope they do it properly. Otherwise, I'd very much prefer a Athrun/Meyrin.

As for the original topic if Bandai think they can sell some more toys then, Athruan and Cagalli will get back together.

Yay, I'm totally for a Fllay clique or a KiraFllay clique. The girl is such a great character ,
Quote:
Yeah, ironically even AsuMey had more development to a potential coupling than ShinnLuna did to their "great third-place winning true love." I'm telling you, AsuKira would beat out every other couple if it included yaoi choices. And then YzakDearka would probably be up top as well, at least scoring higher than ShinnLuna or DeaMiri. And of course GilRey, I mean that would at least beat out GilTalia. See the reasons why the poll is so wack is because the creators probably didn't include the much more obvious yaoi choices or the dead characters |

Yay for Fllay fans! We must open a clique! LOL. Or maybe, some sort of ID that would set us apart and celebrate our minority over leagues of otehr couples' fans.
We should have some sort of yaoi poll or something in Newtype. AsuKira will beat the hell out of every yaoi SEED couple listed on it. But it will have Shinn Athrun for competition. Damn. @ Nightengale So so true. You deserve cookies. Now, if only I could just spread more cookies around before giving some to you again...

Athrun just suddenly not being there for Cagalli, even in a non-romantic sense and a loss of that "spark" is what I call bad writing, after everything they've went through in GSD. It should still be there, but with a heavy sense of tension like a pair of couple who loves each other, but are both ready to give up their love for the greater good. Destiny, both TV series and Special Edition had both emphasised that some distance had grown between Athrun and Cagalli due to "differences", but it's also clear that the emotion is there, and that there is still a bond of love between them. The only thing is that after everything they've been through, they know that trying to reaffirm their emotions too quickly would only cause problems for both of them. Athrun clearly jumped-the-shark in GSD with the ring-scene, and in a way, it was the cause of Cagalli's emotional distress in GSD, as she tries her very best to do everything that should be done for everyone's sake, without rationalizing. Her removing-the-ring-scene and Athrun's-up-to-you-now, girl scene is clearly not a sign of giving up Athrun, but rather believing him and letting both parties work out their issues and if they can, they'll find reconciled love with other other again, maybe even on par with Kira/Lacus's unbreakable love of fate and destiny in the words of Gilly. If it cannot work out, then I believe Cagalli and Athrun will both understand that to give up love for the happiness of each other is a form of love as well. Athrun may be with Meyrin instead then, but there will always be a void in his heart that only Cagalli belongs to, and Meyrin will always be 2nd to that. Same goes to Cagalli. In my opinion, that'll be the best way to end Athrun/Cagalli. Either with both of them overcoming their personal demons and finding love with each other again after distancing from each other emotionally, or realising that their destiny and reality is not kind to them and gives up love with each other, but still loving one another...I sound like broken record....Did that even make sense? Anyway, as the saying goes "love is most beautiful thing, but love doesn't always end beautifully". We've seen too many broken romance (( in more than one way )) in Gundam to attest to that.
