Is Kurumada?
Yesterday I was talking to vane about Kurumada (actually she was telling me about him writing in a magazine some things about saint seiya) but it was late and if I stopped to discuss that with her errr let's just say we've stayed up late for much less interesting reasons before. And a post material is always a post material, right? XD

Anyway, vane was telling me that she thought kurumada was a puritan (is that the word in english, but that meaning he is pro being errr pure XD) (i had to go to sleep so I didn't ask the details of it, it's just that we were discussing about saints being able to marry or not etc), well, i said that that's not what I think, actually I've always thought of Kurumada as some strange being xD Well, many mangaka are strange beings but kurumada was always at the top of my list so I disagreed and then had to leave ^^;

Now, I explain my reasons to her XD

First, my opinion is biased because I've always found kurumada as a Mitsumasa Kido in person and anyone who's heard of the manga would have biased thought towards Kido (or maybe just a lot of people). So for some reason, every time i will think about kurumada i don't see that otaku-like person but a bearded old man *lol*

plus, well, he chose seiya as the main character XD

And also that thing about kido having a hundred children... I'll never understand kurumada's reasons for that o.O maybe to show that their friendship didn't come from nothing? they were united by the starts or whatever? really, I can't understand why Kurumada had to do that... I'm sure he could make up some dirty for kido that would be a lot more plausible. And I can't stop wondering: if he did 100 in two years (he didn't even know about the saints then if you look at their birth dates and then calculate the conception dates), I wonder how many he did in total. Ok, that's fanfiction material so I'll stop here XD

But he made Kido have 90+ women! I mean, 100 kids were born! Now imagine the abortions, the times it didn't generate a kid..... That's a reason i don't find mitsumada  a puritan, unless after making the initial plot he reformulated himself? Anyway, kido had enough sex for the whole manga xD That's what I think but i repeat, I have a biased opinion towards Kurumada XD

back to what vane was saying, it was such a pity she only brought it up very late, I'm sure there were a lot of more interesting "gossips" coming from "shion" (and it took me long to find out what shion had to do with the whole story (shion is the persona kurumada uses in the magazine or something), like imagine vane talking about some couple and then mentioning shion, making me think shion was part of a couple that fans even thought that was canonical XDDDD Vane doesn't even imagine where my mind went trying to figure out who the other person was XD

So, we were talking about if the saints were forbidden to have women... and what happened to those who didn't abide to the rules (vane even gave an example of Orpheus). Yeah, fiction material again lol Now, if you ask why we started that topic.......... I just remember telling vane i'd give her a Mamoru Chiba (Sailor Moon's) avatar o.O ok, I rememeber why I said that but not the way we went until we started discussing if Kurumada was puritan or not

Oh, chats XD I love chats *__*
