I really can't tell if I like Gravitation or not. I'm leaning toward no, since Shuichi is mostly acting like the typical "woman-with-a-penis" uke stereotype, and the relationship between him and Eiri seems to go from zero to hard-on in two seconds. Plus Eiri keeps waffling between wanting to hump kiss Shuichi and hating him for being an annoying brat, and I can't see how he's attracted to him. I'm more interested in Bad Luck than the actual relationship. But then, I've only seen the first four episodes. Hey, who's read the Gravitation manga? Does it go at the same pace or is the relationship developed slower? (And does Shuichi ever calm down and get less annoying?)

No times a million.

I hated Gravitation so much. :/

Yeah, I probably should have watched it before I burned it to DVD. Oops.

Luckily, one of my gung-ho anime friends burnt me a disk of it, praising it to the gods.

Turns out we don't have as much anime in common as we thought. :|

I can't help remembering that one of my ex-friends really liked this anime and realizing that it explains SO DAMN MUCH about her. She acts like that, only with more self-righteous pouting and whining.

See, I thought I liked yaoi, I really did. Turns out I like the idea of it, but not the cliches it tends to come with.
