Nuriko and Friends

I'll never understand why the above picture isn't more popular. It perfectly embodies the seishii's relationships with one another. And of course, that is what this page is about...the way the characters interact, specifically with Nuriko. So...to begin!!!!!!

How the Other Characters as a Whole Feel About Nuriko:


If this doesn't explain it all, who knows what does? For the most art, the other seishii and Miaka all like Nuriko...how can they not?...but sometimes he flusters them. That really sums it up. He just has such an exuberant and ecclectic personality that sometimes it's too much for the less complicated characters.

Tasuki:


Anyone noticed yet how Tasuki and Nuriko are always in the same area of the pciture? Despite the fact that they seem like the pair least likely to get along (the gentle, refined drag queen and the foul-mouthed bandit), I think these two were definitely the best of friends while Nuriko was around. I mean, look at it! It really starts in tape 8. They never really fight, they just tease each other ...then in tape 8, you like never see them apart. They're always scheming together, being evil and conniving and everything, and even though they still tease each other, it's even more obvious than before that they're joking. Then in tape 10, Tasuki's easily the one hit hardest by Nuriko's death...just watch it and you'll see what I mean. And I really do think...never mind. Just look at the response for the Jellybean awards and you'll know what I think about these two.

Tamahome:

My my, don't things start off strangely with these two? ^_^. I'm sure there are bad points aboout being kissed by a beautiful court lady for no apparent reason (although I can't think of any right now....) but I can see how Tamahome wouldn't like being smothered like he is by Nuriko at the series' start. Nor would I like finding out I was just a tool to get back at Miaka...but the crowning disaster would come when Tamahome finds out hte lovely young woman who was fawning all over him is really a man. Never mind that he's a cute one, I'm sure in Tamahome's position I'd be flustered, too. At least he gets over it, and the two do become friends. They get along pretty well, even if Nuriko gets a little heavy-handed trying to match Tamahome and Miaka up, and even if Tamahome's gay boy cracks get a little annoying. Oh well. Nuriko provides support, advice, and probably helps Tamahome grow in experiences when he'd normally collapse.

Hotohori:

Ugh, need you ask? Nuriko worships the Emperor, and not just as a ruler, as we all know. But I wish he wouldn't. He totally deserves better. The Emperor's just too oblivious to Nuriko's overtures...even when he thinks he's a girl, he dismissed "her" as a possible bride. I don't know if it's intentional or not, but really!!!!!!


More to come soon!
