i am starting to develop a minor pet peeve when it comes to the anime: ppl commenting that Mao and Hisashi are like Eiji and Ash respectively. some even go as far as saying they're the reincarnations or that this is banana fish bl version. i found these sort of comments cute at first but now it's taking all i have not to be a wet blanket. i watched banana fish, was heartbroken at the ending too (which was why i couldn't bring myself to read the manga in full), and i love Ash and Eiji (and Shorter) just as much as the next person but in all honesty while Mao and Eiji do have a similar vibe, Ash and Hisashi are polar opposites to me when it comes to certain aspects of their characters. i now find those sort of comments irksome coz come on, Hisashi and Mao are just as unique as Ash and Eiji and the way they keep getting overshadowed with comments like "banana fish bl version" is just disheartening...
