SPC/KNT Couples and why?

[BurkeWorld]

Gonna put this thread on a TEMPORARY break, I'll open it later tomorrow.

And for some reason, I get a Internal Server Error when trying to lock this thread.

Therefore: If anyone posts after me here, their post will be deleted.

Good day all.

Insults? HAHA.
Yeah, enough Yaoi and stuff like that, time to put to rest.
As for "insults" I don't see any here. I just see people posting their opinions (by the way, that is the point of a message board.)

It's a rule (and therefore a moderator's job to ensure) that every message board member be treated with respect. Calling someone crazy, even if it is your personal opinion, is not very respectful.

I will say right now that I am not a fan of Yaoi and Yuri, but how could I possibly create a rule to prohibit discussion of them, without opening the door for "The Inevitable Moral Debate Of Doom, Regarding You-Know-What."  which will come up in every couples topic, without fail?

Ugh... thread locked until things are sorted out.

[BurkeWorld]

For the record, when I said crazy, it was meant in a light, sarcastical manner. I'm not a person to insult through hate or anger on online forums, that's just crazy in itself.

Naw, I just meant a little light hearted fun, so I apologize then. ^_^;

Rock on all.

Okay, this thread is re-opened.

Just to reinterate what I've said in another thread...

As long as no sexual content is mentioned, there's no rule against discussion of Yaoi and Yuri, so technically, this is not an Anti-Yaoi/Yuri forum.

However, anyone who wants to discuss such pairings should keep in mind, it will tend to bother some members (myself included, I admit), so you may face criticism at times when someone feels that you go a bit overboard with Yaoi/Yuri ideas.

My recommendation to anyone else who is bothered by such discussion is to not comment on/ignore it.

[BurkeWorld]

I'm old fashioned.

I'd prefer the Polly + Speedy / Guido + Francine pairing anyday.

I dont have much of a comment for the fore mentioned topic, but Id like to get this rolling with my idea of the best SPC couple to date.

Lou and Vi, now how can anyone disagree with that

[Puutarou]

I have to admit I'd rather have Polly with Guido than with Speedy, cause sometimes I get the feeling Guido and Polly are like Speedy's mommy and daddy. With Polly as the harsh mother and Guido as the more tolerant father.

Still, nothing beats Speedy/Guido.

But why doesn't anyone mention the Rescue Team? Cause they're all guys? We-ell, I think Spritz helps General Catton out when the big cat needs to wash up... And Meowzma, could it be that he's married to BatCat?

It would've been cool if there had been an all female team of Pizza Cats...

Errr, interesting... Please elaborate.

[BurkeWorld]

One of the B-Team is married to a woman already, sorry to burst your bubble.

Burkey: Well, Meowzma did say he was married, but we never see his spouse. It's one of those random things thrown in, like when Guido said to Polly that they should "get married and start a family".

My favorite pairing would have to be Carla/Okara and Bad Bird/Karamaru, hands down. They're just so cute together. ^^ That said, the Speedy + Polly couple would be next in line, although it's funny how some of you mentioned Guido + Polly because I thought of that myself a few times. When Speedy isn't around, those two are always together. I also liked Guido + Ruby, pity she had such a dorky boyfriend. Basically, any pairings of the four main cats works for me. Big Cheese + Jerry seems to work well too, although theirs is more of a "gag relationship" for comedic relief. ^_~  As you can tell, same-sex pairings are also fine with me, but as D-Mac said, let's not start a huge firestorm over this, everyone has different tastes.

[Puutarou]

It's hard to argue with BadBird/Carla and Big Cheese/Jerry since those pairings are pretty much official. (Not that I would argue with them, I think they're nice  )

Image supporting my theory of Polly and Guido being like Speedy's mom and dad.

"Mommyyyy... BadBird is being MEAN to me!!!"
I actually think they'd make good parents...

+ :
This support my view that Speedy+Polly is more suitable than Speedy+Lucille. In Japanese anime a common cliche is a childish boy touching maternal heart of the more mature (not in age, but in personality) girl, and eventually she falls in love with him. Speedy has good heart, but sometimes acts silly and must be hit by someone like Polly. Speedy+Fran could had same kind of relationship, but Fran is the most mature of the Pizzacats, therefore she will get bored with a husband like Speedy.
  + :
Another cliche is a girl that meets a more mature boy, that resembles sometimes her father and give support to her. In this line Guido+Lucille could be a perfect couple. Guido is the most of time cool, except when join Speedy to do silly things (kind of older brother acting more childish, in the presence of younger brother) and deserves to be hit by Polly. Besides, I want to see their kids, a horned cats.  BTW, someone here told that Lucille is a gueixa; I disagree, it's not seems that she has knoledge in art and culture required from a gueixa. Lucille resembles a common citizen (a worker) of Little Tokyo and don't show to have the education and skills of a gueixa.
  +  :
This could be fine too, but I feel that the real love of Fran doesn't appeared in the serie. Bucky was not developed further, but in my feeling he isn't the most suitable partner to her. Are there any fanfics writer that wishes to develop a new character to be Fran's true love?

[Tigriss]

Puutaro-kun: Guido and Polly as parental figures for Speedy?   I just don't see it. True, they do act more mature (compared to him) in general, but I'd say it's more of a best-friends thing.

FMatsumoto: I had to look for a definition of "gueixa" for a bit (the Japanese word is "geisha" for those of you who are wondering). I'd have to say the producers of SPC might have thought Lucille looked like a "geisha", that and she worked in a tea house, but yeah, I never thought she was one myself. Oh, and a slight pet peeve of mine was that they could never say it right, it's "gay-sha" not "gee-sha" (sounded like they were saying "geeses" once) o_o; But such is the case with many other foreign words, like "kamikaze". *shrugs*

[ApacheMan2K]

that's always been a pet peeve for me: mispronouncing words like "geisha" and "Honda". whenever i heard someone say, "gee-sha", i'd say, "It's 'gay-sha', not 'gee-sha'!"

anyway, to get back on topic, i agree with Tigriss about her response to Puutarou-kun's statement. i also don't see how Guido and Polly could be parental in any way; perhaps fraternal, or just, like she said, as his best friends.

Lucille is not a geisha, she just runs a tea house.  There are actual geisha in some of the episodes (like when Lou was out partying).  The main evedence she's not is that she's dressed for working, not for entertaining.  It's highly stylized for KNT's style of animation, but Lucille has her kimono sleeves pulled up and tied back out of the way, and she has a shop apron on.  A geisha would dress much more elegantly and very formal, plus the traditional make up.  However, a lot of non-Japanese seem to call just about any Japanese girl in a kimono or even the less formal yukata a "Geisha".

[KageReneko]

Well, I must admit that I always thought that Lucille was a geisha just for her outfit cause is the same that the other geishas of the series are wearing (The Great Goldern Chuck, I think this is the title, I can' remember perfectly)...

ABout the Speedy/Polly discussion; is obvious that Polly and Guido can be more mature than Speedy  sometimes (JUST Sometimes) and is obvious that Polly is a lot more serious than Speedy... May be this is the fact that she liked on him, Speedy is a most relaxed guy and he takes the life easily; Polly can admire this personallity cause she can't be in this way... About why Speedy liked Polly... C'mon!! Is a red fair Blue Eyes girl!! SHE IS PERFECT!! (Except that little bad temper fact but... WHAT THE HECK!!)

[Puutarou]

I'm not saying Speedy sees Polly and Guido as his parents. But as Tigriss said, since they act mature than him, it automatically feels like they are at sometimes.

(But come on! Don't tell me you can't see Polly as the rough mother, who's fed up with her carefree child being out fooling around instead of helping her out at home... Wait! That sounds like Speedy and Polly again...  )


Currently these are my views on the couplings of the three main cats...

 
Speedy/Polly: Lots of people like this one, but myself I just can't picture it. I think they'd most likely drive each other up the wall.
 
Polly/Guido: This one I could see happening, kind off. They have a lot in common. And red and blue does look good together.
 
Speedy/Guido: Whether it is romantic or not, I love the relationship these two share. In my wicked little mind there's no one that is more right for them than each other.

(*Lol* Using my own icons makes me feel so conceited...  )
