How about people here (especialy in the Inuyasha section) stop bashing couples just because they are Kikyou/ someone besides Sesshoumaru or Sesshoumaru/ someone besides Kikyou. I know people here are fans of the couple, but try being a little nicer about other characters and opinions, just because you think Kagura is "taking Sesshoumaru away from Kikyou" or things like that, does'nt mean you need to be rude and bashful towards that character, I am a big Kagura fan and I think it is terribly rude what some people say about her here. Just keep that in mind.

Oh boy. I saw this coming sooner or later... Alright then, here we go...
Firstly, let's make something clear here... We do NOT bash other coupling just because they are Kikyou/ someone-other-than-Sesshoumaru or Sesshoumaru/someone-other-than-Kikyou. As a mater of fact, I personally am also a fan of Inu/Kiky, think that Suikotsu/Kikyou could've worked out and that Rin might be a good match for Sesshoumaru (second only to Kikyou, of course)when she grows older, though I still think she should go with Kohaku. I'll admit we -do- bash Sessh/Kagu, though, but I shall explain why later on. Sessh/Kago is not very well seen here either, but seeing as you are a huge Kagura fan, I take your greatest issue concerns our comments towards her, right?
I can't say I speak for everyone in the boards, but personally the whole Sessh/Kagu issue is not my only reason for disliking Kagura, though I'll admit, it helps a lot. I think she's rather bit.chy and hate her attitude, the way she speaks and the way she deals with her own issues. She wants to be free; that's fine by me, and it's actually one of the very few things I like about her. I strongly disapprove of the way she tries to achieve that, though. She should battle her own fights for one instead of just trying to get other people to do it for her.
As for the Sesshoumaru/Kagura pairing. Heh, again, I could go on an endless rant as to why that would NOT work out, but I don't feel like like wasting hours of my precious sleep in a possible pointless argument, so I'll just name a few of my reasons: 1. Kagura is too much of a freedom-freak, and whoever is looking for a commited relationship should be willing to lose some of their freedom, which is a much treasured gift she is probably not sacrificing for any man; 2. Let's not forget she -is- a part of Naraku and smells just like him... Naraku's one of Sesshoumaru's greatest enemies, so I don't think he would fall for anyone remotely related to the hanyou; and finally 3. A Sess/Kagu ending would not have the irony element we're all looking forward to seeing: Sesshoumaru, the human-hating youkai lord, ending up with one of aforementioned beings. If anything, a Sessh/Rin ending would be more appropriated, once she grew older, that is.
Now, as for being nicer towards other people's opinions? That would be really great... in a perfect world, of course. I've tried to be nice towards Kikyou-haters, have asked them about a billion times to stop flaming her... Did it work, though? Nope. As a matter of fact, the number of Kikyou bashers increases by the day, and -they- are highly disrespectful towards our opinions. And don't even get me started on Sesshoumaru/Kikyou bashers... They hate the pairing simply because it has Kikyou in it. Do they even bother to elaborate a couple of convincing reasons for disliking the couple? Nope. Just plain ol' bashing. Again, I know of a certain community on LiveJournal where rabid Sessh/Kagu verbally assault a few of my friends who happen to be avid Sessh/Kiky fans and diss their fanfics for the mere fact they are Sessh/Kiky-centered. And believe me, if we are rude, we cannot compare to some of the members in that community. I am not posting a link here for it would probably start a war between the two websites, but I will if I have to.
That brings us to my main point: if some rabid Sessh/Kagu fans can be so aggressive to us, why can't we fight back? It would not be reasonable to ask of us to 'be nice to them' and 'respect their opinions' when they will not do the same for us, even after we have politely asked them about a hundred times. I am not one to go into fights when I can avoid them; in case the contend can't be helped, though, I will not give up until I win, meaning that, as long as Sessh/Kagu fans keep bashing the Sessh/Kiky community, I have no reason to deprive the members of these boards of their right to reply in the same rude way they get attacked. If Sessh/Kagu fans can have a blast by poking fun at Sessh/Kiky, I guess it's more than fair we do the same.
Last but not least... I am sure everybody here has allowed their emotions to speak louder than their minds once or twice, but let's face it, we're all humans, so we are entitled to lose it sometimes. We say things we regreat eventually, but we can't take them back. I'll tell you one thing, though: I do not and probably will not regret having posted this 'small' rant. I've had this urge to get that off my chest for the longest while now, and I was just waiting for the right moment to do so. Heh, guess the timing was perfect.
On one final note, I am genuinely sorry if you took our bashful comments to a personal level, because I never meant to hurt anyone's feelings. Then again, I am not apologizing for a war I did not start and most certainly never wanted to be a part of. As the admin of Hidden Hearts Boards and a diehard fan of Sessh/Kiky, I can assure you our behavior will remain the same for as long as Sessh/Kagu fans keep being rude to us.
Let's all hope this won't turn into a massive argument between Sessh/Kagu and Sessh/Kiky fans...

Well Rubeh, I completely agree with your post. When I first read the comments by you, Cocoa, I was pretty agitated and was ready to snap at you harshly considering my stressful day. -.- Though now that I've calmed down I can talk like a civilized person >.>;;
I agree that people should stop bashing other characters. Yet as Rubeh said, this isn't a perfect world and people will be petty.
Also, this is a fan's site... We're just speaking our minds. I honestly don't see why people have to take what we say so seriously when, to be honest, we're not doing anything wrong at all. If we have something to say about a character, if it's Kagura or not, we should be allowed to speak our minds and not get snapped at for it.
And if I'm not mistakin, QUITE a few Kagura fans have bashed Kikyo a numerous amount of times. So what do you say to that exactly? Should we just sit back and watch as we listen to you people bash a character who we just happen to like while you expect us not to retaliate?
As for us being rude, I don't think we are. Again, we're speaking our minds, just like you Kagura fans do. So, if you're going to shake your finger at us and tell us all that we should be more respectful to a character, then maybe you should look at the big picture and realize that we have to deal with the same problem my dear.
That's all I'm going to say about this...

I don't mind Kagura all that much, to be honest with you. However, she does annoy the crap out of me a majority of the time, and I believe I have the right to express that annoyance however I deem appropriate. I never direct any of my insults towards her fans, as I know how it feels to be mocked merely because you like an 'unpopular' character, just her character itself, so I see no need to apologize. And I most certainly won't. Have you ever stopped to consider that the reason we supposably "diss" other pairings involving either Sesshoumaru or Kikyou is not because we're overly obsessive Sessh/Kik fans, but because we either simply don't like or simply don't see the goodness of that pairing?
I do find it disheartening that there are so many petty fangirl/fanboy wars going on, but no one at these boards started them, so I find it unfair of you to place the blame on us. In fact, you're the only antagonist here, coming to our boards and spouting such senseless nonsense.
Buh-bye now.
