Topic: What CLAMP said about the KxF Question!! (Read 10205 times)

dark_persian · « **on:** November 17 2006, 12:10 am »

(Wasn't sure if this should be in the KxF topic, but I think is deserves it's own topic.)

Some of you may remember that a while back CLAMP attended an American convention, at which there was a Question and Answer panel.

One fan asked if anything would happen between Kurogane and Fai sometime in the manga (meaning in a romantic sense). There was a lot of confusion and conjecture surrounding CLAMP's reply to that. One very unreliable anti-KuroganexFai source online claimed that CLAMP had angrily told their fans that 'The pairing was all in their heads and that they were all completely deluded.'. Other Anti-KxF sources claimed that "CLAMP was confused and hadn't understood the question."

Those rumours were latched onto by anti-KxFs as conclusive proof that it was a couple that would never be. But of course, CLAMP would never have been so rude and direct to their loyal fans and recently, SatsukiÂ "Chipmunk Cheeks" Igarashi mentioned this question in her interview columnÂ (re-printed & translated from the Japanese NewType in NewType USA)

You can find it here: http://community.livejournal.com/kuroxfai/323250.html

It certainly disproves the 'CLAMP were angry at the question' and the 'CLAMP didn't understand the question' theories! Satsuki sounds far more amused and entertained than angry, and certainly she understood the question!

Hmm... She doesn't really say anything about the answer they gave either. Damn, she's still acting neutral about the pairing. Still, it gives us KxF fans hope.

Hmmm so... what's the answer? O.o

lol CLAMP likes to torture KxF fans

kixie · « **Reply #3 on:** November 17 2006, 01:30 am »

well at least we can push that in the faces of antiKuroFais and tell them to shut up. Nothing was said either way and both sides have jumped on the wagon and just gone over the hill.

Sandra-chan · « **Reply #4 on:** November 17 2006, 03:30 am »

So they didn't answer the question? Too bad..

I've never heard anyone saying "Zomg non-canon!!111!11!!", in regards to KuroFai and that pannel. o.o; Huh.

They were so vague, though... :X I remember everyone I was sitting near being annoyed with their answer. I suppose they didn't want to irritate anyone. But they were laughing, so... hehe.

I was in the very front row, but due to screaming, no one heard the answer, so no one knows. And I never saw anyone laughing. I only saw them whispering to each other.

From far away, whispering is easily misseen as giggling.

Emiko · « **Reply #8 on:** November 17 2006, 06:16 am »

I don't think Clamp would have answered one way or the other, even if the screaming hadn't drowned them out. If I was writing a manga and I planned to have two characters hook up, I wouldn't give away a big plot point like that, and if I wasn't, then I wouldn't potentially risk losing fans by admitting that.

So while it's nice that we know they understood the question, the answer that they DID give still remains aggravatingly vague.

Kazemon15 · « **Reply #9 on:** November 17 2006, 06:34 am »

Oh I know they understood the question, there's no doubt I know they did...dont know where some fans got "they didnt understand" from...O_O ...from where I was sitting, it seems they were a bit surprised.

kixie · « **Reply #10 on:** November 17 2006, 06:45 am »

I think it's natural to be surprised with all those fans screaming at them XD

Plus, they were in a completely different country, I am sure that there is a certain amount of shock in the amount of yaoi fangirls in the United States if you have never experienced it

When I 1st heard CLAMP was coming to America, I was like, "O Crud, the Fans are going to scare them" and Started to worry about TRC, and the whole K&F relationship was going to crash. GTG

Kazemon15 · « **Reply #14 on:** November 17 2006, 08:26 am »

Well, anyone, KuroTomo, KuroFai, and any other fans alike will post anything to prove their point....the only truth is the ones who were actually there...and were actually close, of course, ppl wont believe others...so the basic thing....no one really knows....not til the very end.

Ugh there were so many anti-KF fans spreading lies about AX. Especially all the "CLAMP SAID THAT KUROFAY IS ALL IN THE FANGIRLS HEAD" stuff.

*looks at recent chapters* Riiiggghtttt...it's all in our heads!

Seriously though when has CLAMP ever given away plot points? Of course they wouldn't answer the question. It's easier to get Seishirou to admit he loves Subaru than it is to get information out of them.

Not just anti-KF fans, but also other fans...everyone, KF fans and KT fans alike, Im not saying any of you, but I meant some others.....like a quote I read somewhere.....they claim CLAMP said "do you desire this pairing?" ....but I just ask...how can they hear that if they were screaming? All I heard was screaming and I was right next to the speakers too.

kixie · « **Reply #17 on:** November 17 2006, 08:52 am »

I know pairings want to get their points across but I hate how rude they can be about it - and I'm talking about all pairing fans.

They twist the truth and then abuse other people for stating their argument. Clamp wouldn't never say anything about those two so I've never believed anything said about this part of the interview.

It's a shame no one could use a video recorder or sound recorder.

Smile_For_Me · « **Reply #18 on:** November 17 2006, 08:57 am »

The couple that will be official will be by CLAMP, and that will be at the end of the manga.
off topic
Is it me, or is this the quickest relase of a manga yet?

Very true.....everyone will do something to support their favs....

I agree, I always said...wont be revealed to the end, since CLAMP always has a way to twist things around, even at the very end of the story.

Anyway, about the question, of course that one question will stick to mind....since it is the ones the fans had the most reaction with....
