I hate people calling Aki "that uke". He's not even a typical one . He's different and i like him that way.. and if he gets molested all the time ,its because he's too cute for his own good
100% Agreed!
The typical uke gets molested by everyone. He's wanted by everyone. He gets raped and falls in love with his rapist. He questions whether he's loved or not, and feels unloved by the seme. He gets taken and has to be rescued. There are many rambunctious, rowdy ukes who're just like Takaba.
Takaba is the "typical" uke.
If you want a "non-typical" uke, try Riki from Ai no Kusabi, now he's original. Though he has the same "ukish" traits that Akihito had. Only had the courage to run away from Iason when he was offered the chance.
I hink Riki and Aki have a lot in common. Okey riki is more experienced in ....well everything ! Iason and Riki is my other favorite couple. Give Aki a few years in the underworld and you'll see
For god's sake just shut up everybody and stop philosophizing!!! the "typical" uke is a thing and Riki is another thing and Akihito IS AKIHITO okay?!..End.
Except, in a few years, Aki will either be dead or Asami's house wife. He won't ever be willing to leave Asami, he's grown too pampered by the life that Asami has to offer. He and Riki are opposite, Riki isn't one to sit down and be catered to like Aki. Riki is hardcore, Aki is soft. When Aki has the guts to leave Asami, then he'll truly be the non-typical uke. Riki does what he says he'll do, Takaba is all bark and no bite. Riki and him aren't the same.
personality wise, kind of, but hardly.
i haven't read that much yaoi, but from what i have read,usually an uke is being molested only by his seme(till he decides he's in love with him)or perhaps by someone who antagonises his seme. He is usually petite, short and with HUGE teary eyes. full of fear. Sorry i don't see that much of Aki in this description. That's only my opinion.
Then you need to read a lot mor Yaoi, hun. Takaba isn't much different from other ukes.
chill outll!!!We have to do something till the 10/28.You don't have to be rude about it.
Totally agree!!!!
I love Aki....I want more!
Uke is the Japanese term for the partner on the bottom.
Aki is definetively a bottom. I'm not sure where you've got your definition, but it's really just that. Asami is a seme by the way. Seme is the Japanese term for the partner on top. They're not really negative terms per se. It just refers to their role in bed.
I just love Aki and i'd like to think he's like noone else.. that he's special
I think what savvina, means is that uke can sound offensive. I agree that Aki isn't your normal partner on the bottom. Haha.
Mm. I love Takaba as much as the next guy (girl...), but Viewfinder was the first yaoi I ever started reading. It became my template for yaoi's. I suppose that's why I don't think Takaba is all that different from other uke's.
Except I think he's a tad bit more of a whore. It's flippin' adorable :3
Lol
I like you
agree and i hate this type of uke, but i love takaba
who do you think is the hooded man???? Do you think it could be Asami???
no guess not,asami won't handle to see Takaba getting hurt!! wanna see his reaction when he sees takaba and know this!!
No way. Asami will not let anyone hurt his kitten.
And it's not Yoh, Sakazaki, Mikhail, Yuri, nor Kirishima (wtf? xD)
I think it's someone that Takaba never know (based on his reaction when he heard that hoodie man). So my guess is.. he's another traitor from Asami's side..
..which chapter are you talking about?
the newest one.
"Do you think it could be Asami???"
I said no way
Yan Tsui for lack of a better candidate
Haha then it would have to be zombie Yan, and he would not shoot Sudoh, he would eat his BRAINS!
I hope it's new character, new villain, a Japanese rival for Asami xD
maybe the person that always follows Takaba since the beginning? I forgot what chapter it was. Asami asked one of his subordinates to tail Takaba all the time so he knows Takaba's movements.
I think it's new character, because Takaba heard Sudou and hooded man talking, if that hooded man is someone he knows so Takaba will recognize his voice.
I don't think it's Asami's subordinate. If it were his subordinate, he would shoot Sudoh right after Sudoh tried to stab Aki.
The timing when he was shoot by that hoodie man right after the police caught him makes me thinking it must be another traitor who scared that Sudoh might tell Asami about him. lololol
I believe that the hooded guy is known to us, otherwise why hide him under the hood???Imagine being someone like Kirishima or Suoh!!! That would be huge overthrow.
ROFLMAO. Using Hoodie doesn't mean he's someone we know. It's just sensei's way to make him more mysterious. It's not like we are there so that guy should hide his face from us. Takaba heard his voice, but he didn't recognize him. There's no point of him hiding his face from Takaba if he heard his voice.
If it were Kirishima, I would tears in blood
wait.. no way it's Kirishima since I said Takaba didn't recognize his voice xD
I think think the hooded man is another trader of asami's!!! I also think that because Akihito was surprised when the hooded man spoke and entered the warehouse! Hopefully Asami saves Akihito soon!!!
who do you think Kuroda really is????
why did he talk more than usual when he visited Asami in ch43??
Do you think he knew Akihito was listening???? Did Kuroda want aki to listen???
He could be Asami's bro. or cousin. they look so much alike. I don't know if he knew Aki was there. Maybe he did. He does work in the pros. office. maybe he helped to get Aki out of jail in ch43.
He called by his first name. He has to be his brother.
Asami's half brother xD
i have a question too:
Do you think feilong is an Uke or a Seme???
with Aki acts like a seme but when he's with Asami looks like an uke(who wouldn't???)
I see him as an uke with Yoh too...
Maybe couse his so feminine and pathetic .... yeah i hate the guy
I think he can be reversible. He can be either uke or seme, I think it depends on his partner.
I think he should be uke. He was uke with Asami, Yanzhui, and Yoh. And in the dream with Tao. He was only seme with Aki. I think YA likes him as uke with everyone except Aki.
Since this was brought up i also have a question... Who do Feilong actually love??? Asami? Akihito? Yoh? Tao? O.O Or do he love no one (right now)?
At this moment he loves Tao, but this is the father/son like love. Tao started to look at Feilong in very adult's way in the novel, but Feilong sees him only as a family. But the boy is the most precious person in his life. Thanks to Yoh he got over with Asami. But he sees Yoh only as a good friend, nothing more (or maybe not...). With Akihito they are also friends (they text each other very often in the novel. In the emails and sms conversations Asami's name is a taboo though ;) )
Does Asami know about the texting and the emails between Aki and feilong????
Heh, forgot to write my name above :P
@savvina, no idea. In one of the extra (when Akihito had sex with Fei and Asami in hot springs) when Feilons asked Akihito, why he didn't answer his messages, Asami was surprised. http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/you_re_my_loveprize_in_viewfinder/mh/v06/c035.3/14/
But I think he does know,but dosen't pay much attention to it, when they talk about basic things. Akihito writes about his cameras, job, this kind of things (again - novel). If he dosen't see it as some kind of threat, then maybe he's ok with it. At least he is sure, that Feilong won't hurt Akihito again.
thanks XD i been wondering about that... i kinda wish they have another battle for Akihito XPPPP but oh well Asahito is the best after all XDDDDDD
I think the shooter is fei long. He's got the same look in his eyes, the same slim body AND he wears a hood to hide his long hair.Look the way he srares at Asami. That's not an ' i hate you' look. He went bananas when he realised he would never have Asami. He was confused a little during the HK arc and thought he wanted aki. But that was only because Asami wanted Aki Aki couldn't recognise his voice bc Aki was confused, scared, beaten up. The shooter has his nose and mouth covered so his voice can be distorted. We didn't hear his voice. Maybe he was talking with sudou in a low voice. After all fei long was always a mean bicth. He kidnapped Aki twice, raped him, made him do things.He even kidnapped aki's friends and blackmailed him. AND ALL THESE just to irritate Asami. Fei long is obsessed with Ryuichi, as are we .
Bullshit! Your arguments don't add up. It's Asami's alter ego which hates Aki and which was extracted from him and sent to planet Earth by aliens to punish humanity for experiments on Dolly the sheep. When Aki will die Asami will shoot all the people in the world and maybe even more and then will commit suicide (by Sepuku or by shooting miss Yamane). Only the last thing is exact punishment for us... :}
It's a thought of mine . You don't have to agree with me and you don't have to be rude.
Actually, I kind of doubt that Fei Long would hurt Akihito. There was some true regret on his face as Asami lead him off the boat, plus he wished that he could have met Akihito under other circumstances. My feeling is that Fei is a little in love with Akihito too, and that he would protect rather than hurt him.
this is an even stupider theory than the shooter being yuri. fangirls can be so one track minded sometimes. the hong kong arc is finished now, the shooter is probaby someone brand new.
Ah I agree with you. I had the same interpretation and the same thought (yes, I think that he might be a little bit in love with Aki, even if he haven't expressed it explicitly)
R u on weed!?
Do you mean Yamane only made a mystery with the whole hood thing to make a fool of her fans? I don't think it is someone new. That would be a bit senseless.
I also don't think that this is Fei Long. Why would he do the dirty work all by himself? He would use an underling to make deals with Sudou, right? And the eyes doesn't fit either.
Well it sure makes you talk about her manga :P
I'm all for him to be an old character, but I just can't picture Yuri doing that for some reason, he seemed to be dealt and done (though not dead). And I can't find anyone else that would fit, so to me a new character isn't that much more of a stretch.
at least nobody can say that I have no imagination...hahahahaha
I can say it. You have no imagination
yeah yeah ... whatever...
