I've jut finished watching BotP again and am watching Gatch. I've noticed that there are heaps of times when his arm goes around her shoulders - at times when it seems a little odd to do so.

In BotP it was that which gave me my determination that Mark/Princess isn't unrequited/flirting and that there is definitely something happening there.

And it's that which gave fans the Ken/Jun thing.

It's almost as if he can't help hiimself - he has to make that possessive / protective gesture

It seems very "stiff" to me...is this a Japanese thing? Does the hand on the shoulder mean anything besides friendship?

(I'm thinking about an Inuyasha episode where this is mentioned...the lustful monk pats the demon slayer on the chest and she says, "Why can't he put his hand somewhere more romantic, like on my shoulder?")

I think that she said that because the monk always took every opportunity to touch her ... on the most inopportune places! He was really a very naughty monk you know?! Deep inside she loved him but she wanted him to be more serious regarding their relationship. His touching was always included with humor and seemed more coming from a pervert mind than from a loving person! Perhaps, the demon slayer longed for more romantic words and gestures instead of utterly feeling used! And I hope I didn't mess up with any word this time!!

I always say that in Gatch F there's more to this, especially when nearing the end! Or maybe it's my mind that wishes to think like that, but I certainly could capture something going on between the two!

Another one that will go out of order when I reach the BotP ep.

But I shall persist in my mission to put these in order!

Well, I WAS trying to put these in order for the latecomers who might want to read them.

This was the only way I knew to do this: post a reply or something. (I did include at least one episode review. Can't remember which one, though.)

Thanks.

I DID try to be a little creative with my posts, but was not always successful.
