petroniaHold me to this one: I have to do a sample breakdown of the Japanese GB fandom. Because if I say - for instance - that the vocal participants of GB-comm are 70/30 BanGin vs. AkaGin, it's merely off-the-cuff ballpark estimate, but the Japanese fandom always makes statistics easy. And I can never resist useless statistics.
To take an example, I count 122 BanGin-specific sites on this particular engine (i.e. leaving out the people who've marked themselves down as not caring about the pairing as long as Ginji is uke), versus... what's a good one?... 17 Akabane-uke sites. Out of which - in all seriousness now - 6 specifically state Ginji x Akabane. The rest are either Kagami x Akabane, or... I think this may mean Maguruma x Akabane. Three of those.
...You are aware of the concept of shooting the messenger? Fine, don't do it.
Surfing manually now. If I find me a Ginji x Akabane anything that's not horrendously OOC as we poor benighted Western canon weenies understand it, I'll make a note of it. I know there were inquiring minds considering this one.
EDIT, LATER -- I have a sinking feeling regarding the above paragraph... and it goes by the name of priest/monkey. Seriously.
