Kotarou/Tamayo? In the manga, it ends with Kotarou/Misaki and Ohjiro/Tamayo.

And you can download the Angelic Layer manga at Hikari no Himitsu: http://2hnh.info/

Ohjiro with...her? never saw that one coming but i'm glad that misaki ends up with him in the manga, don't get me wrong

i like Misaki with Ohjiro, but i was really disappointed when after all the hints in the anime Misaki and Kotarou didn't become a couple

and thanks for the manga downloads

Yep, that's true. Kaede was Minoru's sister in Chobits who had died before the manga began, and Minoru tried to create a persocom with her same personality. Icchan was Chitose's husband who had also died earlier, and he was the creator of the Chii and the persocoms. So the Angels in Angelic Layer are kind of the forerunners of the persocoms in Chobits.

but that means that Icchan didn't become a couple with Shuuko in Angelic Layer, too bad they were a good couple :(

On an ephemeral evening, I tell a story to my friend.

Reflected behind my closed eyelids is a sweet field. Dauntless, I embrace you lovingly. I am together with you.

Out of love, I forge a pact with you. Like a breath, the wind will envelop you. You and I will be together wherever we go.

The heart of red will be enfolded in wind and forge the contract.

n

Ohjiro: if i win this round what will be my prize?

Ringo: i know, a kiss from Misaki

Misaki: huh?!

Kotarou: I oppose that!

Sai: Indeed, it's not good that a girl kisses a guy (she said something like that)

Everyone: 0.o

(taken from ep 17)

I checked the English subtitled version on my official Angelic Layer DVDs last night and the situation actually goes like this.

Ohijiro: So, what do I get if I win?

Ringo: I know!  A kiss from the princess!

Kotaro: Objection!  You can't do that!

Sae: I agree.  I certainly wouldn't be happy being kissed by a woman.

And in episode 16, when Misaki is fighting against Sae, Kaede says "It's strange that I'm more nervous about a friend's fight than my own fight" when she's with Hatako watching Sae's fight.  I think if Sae and Kaede were in love with each other, she would refer to her in a more intimate way than just "a friend."  No offense to any fans, but I just can't see Sae and Kaede being anything more than friends, at least in the anime version.

When her leathery, crow-footed face turned towards my raised hand and said, “Yes, the boy in the Sailor Mercury t-shirt,” I sprung into action. It took me a brief 20 seconds to acquire the bokken (wooden sword) I had secured to the underside of our chairs with duct tape the night previous. Shouting “Japan BANZAIII!” in the manner of those noble kamikaze pilots from the War of United States Aggression (so tactlessly referred to in your history books as “World War II”), I charged the stage, bringing down the bokken forcefully onto the plywood table in front of Tiffany Grant. It was a tragic mistake not to channel my ki correctly. The bokken splintered into a thousand pieces, leaving me with no other plan of attack besides shouting, “You’re no Asuka!” as two Ohayocon toughs escorted me out of the room-SomethingAwful.com

your subs are really different from that what i can remember....that's it! i'm downloading ep 17 again for that scene!

and in the anime they're just friends (officially) but in the manga....

Have you read the manga of Angelic Layer? I've not seen the anime, but there are a fair amount of hints to Kaede/Sai in the manga. They're shown smiling at each other, and there's a splash page with them in a fairly intimate position.

That's probably because you may have been watching fansubs of Angelic Layer.  Fansubs are translated unofficially by non-professional fans who only think they know Japanese, but official subtitled versions are translated by proffessional translators who make a living out of translating Japanese into English.  If you've been watching Angelic Layer fansubs, I wouldn't exactly rely on everything that fansubs say because fansubs tend to be very inaccurate with their translations (for example, fansubs always tend to over-exaggerate swearing in anime).

yep mine is a fansub...etou give me a sec here is the quote from the fansub (my memory is really terrible)

Kotarou:No! i oppose that! That is not right!!

Sai: True, getting kissed by a girl isn't too good

and the first time i quoted (both from the same sub)

Sai: Indeed, it's not good that a girl kisses a guy

oh crap i can't believe i made such a mistake and it's only been 2 weeks since i saw that ep for the 1st time! :sweatdrop:

so much for that scene being a 'perhaps Sai is gay' hint! :(

oh well we always have the manga for that :D

Cardcaptor Takato, I think you're being a bit harsh on fansubbers. Yes, there are extremely bad fansubbers and scanlators out there whose work I wouldn't touch with a forty-foot pole- for example, I recently came across a fan translation of 'X' that translated 'Sakurazukamori' as 'Cherry Blossom Star,' which is about as bad as it can get, considering that just about ANY fan of 'X' and 'Tokyo Babylon' could tell them what 'Sakurazukamori' actually means. But there are also extremely good fansubbers and scanlators who put out quality work. Sure, even the best fansubs and scanlations are not as good as a good official release, but they're good enough. And the best groups do have people who are fluent in the languages they are translating back and forth. Besides, there are official translations I also wouldn't touch with a forty-foot pole.

And it makes me sad that they cut out the Sai/Kaede shippiness from the anime... Especially destroying it with that awful quote. Then again, I was somewhat surprised that they left Yukito/Touya in the CCS anime, and they completely cut out Saya/Touru from the X anime.

Yuuko and Kurogane *rolls around laughing* Ohhh I would love to see that relationship!
Terada x Rika creaped me out O.o Theres a fine line between sweet and illegal.
Hokuto x Kakyo.... Hokuto... *sob*
Hokuto and Sei-chan ^^ not really a romantic relationship but I love whatever it is they have/had.
Subaru x Kamui - Not sure if I want this to be romantic but I wish they had more time together.

Rika and Terada are cute together and don't start with the age difference thing cause i know a couple that's way worse......Haruka and that girl from ep 10 in Tactics i believe (she's like 10 years old and he looks like he's 30 but he's actually a few hundred years old), but that's not a Clamp couple, so i'm getting off topic here  :sweatdrop:

i like MisakiXKotarou as well, too bad they only become a couple in the manga.

and it seems i'm not the only one who likes TouyaXMizuki instead of TouyaXYukito....i like him with Yukito as well, but i like the Mizuki Touya couple better *looks behind him and sees a big group of angry TouyaXYukito fans*

eh...i gotta run, ja na!
