Yes, But I would also enjoy some actual White X Black to. U n U
Nicoue - 13 years ago
I'm quite confused as to where all the Black/White fans came from, actually... |D Well, this comic is kind of the reason I started liking this pairing, so YES
i was reading blacks adventure for nxblack actually...if it wernt to actually happen i wud b a bit disappointed :l im a yaoi fan xD
anon - 13 years ago
@garuru: lol thank you. I love this comic, but N is a taaaaad annoying because of what you said. I am glad that this beach thing is making him a little more friendly towards Black's friends though. Otherwise he was gonna continue feeling like a yaoi/shounen-ai character stereotype.
garuru - 13 years ago
Unless N grows a little and stops being so jealous of Black's friends, then I don't want it to happen. Maybe it's just me, but I don't find clingy-ness cute. If their relationship changes at all, I'd like them to become good friends.
I'm starting to feel like I'm the only one who's looking forward to Black confessing to White more than the possibility of a Black/N relationship.
Snitch - 13 years ago
Eek! Sorry! I have one more thing to comment about!
It would also be nice to have Black with mixed emotions, like he liked White and N at the same time and Kclab was messing with him or something.... Actually maybe X out the Kclab thing. My mind has just been thinking about this all day and it was an idea.
There's also lots of the story left and I'd expect Black to start getting feelings around the time he gets to the Pokemon league or when he's getting the last of the badges. Go sum it up, again, Black/N just make me D'awww so much and Black is so caring towards N now and I'm like, YUIJBNGFUJKJKUJ, whenever I read your comics and your probably the only person that can fulfill my N/Black wishes. I love that pairing so much. ;-; I also like Delibird's and Kiron's ideas! Their awesome!
I hope this is the actual last time- Snitch
Snitch - 13 years ago
Also, why is everyone saying Black/N will be nasty? The author said in the Q/A that they would not do Yaoi, so I'm guessing the most extreme item in this whole series if they are together will be a peck on the lips. Just saying. And a side note- This comic made me ship Black-N so much more then I already did! I used to be equal with the N (NxWhite/NxBlack) and the Black shippings. XD
Sorry for two long posts! But to sum it up, I voted Yes.
Snitch - 13 years ago
I'm a fan of both parings involving Black, but I love love love NxBlack way more~ I think their just so cute together! So I voted yes, but I'm a fan of the fluffy not the yaoi, but I'd still read it. It's up too you, though, but I would also like you to close the BlackxWhite just so we can have closure and not be on a relationship cliffhanger! Thanks for reading- Snitch

No. It should stay as-is, with them just being funny friends, with occasional accidental ho-yay between them. That's what makes the comic great.
I think to suddenly make Black and N go gay for each other would be contrived and rather offensive, since Black has shown no real interest in men so far (and N doesn't understand sex in the slightest), so a sudden WHAM CHANGED SEXUALITY moment would be really poorly done. If it had been established that they were both gay since the beginning, hey, that would be fine, but randomly changing it to cater to a bunch of pubescent fangirls who only want it because guy-on-guy is SO HAWT would be bad for the comic. It'd just throw all characterization and plot out the window, so please, don't do it. I would be all for it if it made sense, but it doesn't, so it shouldn't. Err, happen.
I think BlackxN is a really, REALLY good pairing. I feel like the whole BlackxWhite thing is so played out by it being the overwhelming preferential pairing among the majority of pokemon fans. BlackxN, especially in this distorted Pokemon universe seems like an especially good pairing because of the chemistry which does exist.
The part where Black had N on his mind, and almost forgot that he was supposed to be in love with White is what did it for me. I've seen that from N's perspective in real life... so I know it's realistic.
Someone criticized you for the flamboyancy of the whole "We fight in girls' clothes" thing and took it as far as to say that they'd be a flaming obnoxious couple, which made me laugh. First, I don't see the inherent problem in that considering the amount of flaming hetero couples I see. Second, that sort of behaviour goes against Black's character entirely so I'm not worried about there being any sort of shift in the social dynamic.
I LOVE BLACKxN AND IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN HERE BECAUSE YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHO COULD DO IT SO PERFECTLY
Tabris - 13 years ago
Well part of me thinks they should end up together, but then N's constant wanting Black to love him and he loves White is so cute!
Why you no love for Cheren? D: Poor guy, jerks need love too then they become unjerky!
Moony - 13 years ago
YES to N/Black.
I don't get the arguments people are making against it, really. I can understand if you're not into yaoi or if you like another couple but the points some people are making really boggle my mind.
Like, what makes you all assume that by answering "yes" to this poll that N and Black will become a couple by the very next update? There's still a lot of story (I imagine) to be covered here, and Black and N's relationship is obviously still developing. I seriously doubt if they were to become a couple it would happen quite this soon-- it's more likely it would occur towards the end of the comic.
Also, why would the couple ruin the comic for some people? You got through cross-dressing, gay jokes and the like, I would hope you all had the methods to cope with some hand-holding and a kiss here or there. This comic is awesome by every definition of the word! It would be insulting for some of the fanbase to drop it just because their favorite couple didn't happen in canon. e_e

In this comic, I like the idea of them becoming good friends better than them becoming a couple. Also, it would kind of throw the Black liking White thing out the window.

Yes. I want it to happen.
My answer will not be very original aaaand I apologize for my terrible english, this is not my mother tongue so I hope you will understand what I'm gonna/trying to write :3
It's your comic and you do what you want, but I think a N/Black would be very, veeeery cool. But you know, if it is shonen-ai (hell, why do people always think of porn ?) and at the end I think it would be better o/
You perfectly know how do grow slowly a relationship, and that's sooooo great !
Plus, I saw little hints of this paring in your hole comic, and I find this absolutely cute. Keep going ! They are so adorable, so sweet. Why stop now ?
I will love you forever, your work is amazing
Exodus - 13 years ago
Ok this is only my honest opinion, and should in no way sway you from what you want. Why? Because it's your comic after all and should be able to write what you desire. Now as for my answer to your poll, I actually really want Black and N to end up together so very much. Watching their relationship grow sweeter over time and getting to see Black gradually come to care more about N deeply shook this corny little heart of mine, so yes, seeing them end up together would be something I would fully support. In any case, pairings aside I've also enjoyed this comic for all the awesome reference-filled antics and cute humurous moments- a happy ending with Black/N would be like the icing on the best cake in the world. XD Ok enough ranting, once again it's your comic and I just love you for bothering to make it in the first place-honestly that's what counts right? That it actually exists! Thank you so much, and you are really sweet for taking our opinions into consideration.
Shoop-de-Woop - 13 years ago
I would prefer Black/N (or N/Black. Not picky) as long as you tackle the boatload of issues N has, since I can't imagine him in a healthy relationship with the way he is now. But if it went Black/White, I wouldn't mind, since it's your comic, and it's lovely and can do no wrong.
I don't get why people believe so firmly that them becoming something like a ~couple~ would change completely the way they interact to each other. I get that Black has been having a change of heart regarding N in the last few episodes, but growing fond of him doesn't mean Black won't be awkwarded out by N's behavior from time to time.
I would love to see N learning to cope with his feelings, though. Someone, like Belle or Juniper, could teach him what jealousy is, and that you can only go so far with your possessiveness regarding someone else. I love N's innocence.
AltARIa - 13 years ago
AFTER READING SOME OF THE POINTS PEOPLE HAVE IN THE COMMENTS I'M NOW LEANING TOWARDS NO FOR BLACK/N. :(
I mean, the gay humor is most amusing and all, but it just...just seems weird to imagine those two together fffff.
Sooo yeah. Same as before, it's your choice Author!Black. DO WHAT YOU FEEL IS BEST
I'll stop commenting now.

I'll be happy with whatever happens. But honestly, Everyone x Everyone would be so awesome. This comic is so much fun to read that anything would be great. I seriously mean it.
By the way... Why are most of the comments so long? Lolz, you guys are crazy. But that means you love the comic too.
Blue Rose - 13 years ago
Lololololololololol. Gravitation is NOT the example of a normal/healthy relationship. I love the series to death (mainly cause it's a lot of nostalgia for me and was my first manga/series into the yaoi/shounen-ai genre), but it is pure crack/craziness and while I enjoy the series and the development of the couple, it is anything but realistic or normal.
That being said, Black/N and the comic in general isn't very realistic or normal either, but it's not nearly as extreme as the personalities of the characters of Gravitation. Gravitation is a hilarious and (debatably) good manga, but is a terrible example of homosexual couples. What is best is for Black/N to develop naturally on it's own. Every couple has it's flaws, but as long as the communication is open and honest, they can be overcome. Black was very insensitive and uncaring (at least towards N) in the beginning, but over the course of the comic, he's begin to warm up to him. Same can go for N. N is still very possessive when it comes to Black and essentially thinks about him only and practically rages at anyone who wants to spend time with him, but lately he's been showing signs of expanding his circle of friends and becoming more independent, which is a good thing for both Black and him.
Overall: Gravitation was an amusing series, but should not be taken so seriously. This comic is a derpy comic, but it's also got some serious points to underneath. Whether or not it's intentional, can't say for sure. A Gravitation-crazy-esque relationship could somewhat fit in this comic, as it's all about humor with random touches of srs bsns then with follow ups of wth. Nut I strongly wouldn't recommend that, because I think it's best to develop the couple what would fit to the theme of the comic, which is whatever author!Black intends.
As for Black/White, I don't really care for it cause I've always saw the two as related. Always do when it comes to mxf protags. Plus, I get the feeling that White is either a lesbian or just isn't into Black like that...
Zephyr - 13 years ago
I can't really reply to Gyra Solune, but...
>Watch Gravitation or something to see how it's SUPPOSED to be- a perfectly normal relationship
>Gravitation- a perfectly normal relationship
>Gravitation- normal relationship
...No. Just...no.
Not that it really has ANYTHING to do with the outcome of this poll OR how you do things, I just want to make it clear that this is WRONG. Whether or not you have watched/read Gravitation is beside the point. It is a terrible example of a homosexual relationship. I was a huge fan. WHEN I WAS 13.
I'm now a grown man, and I can say in all honesty that Gravitation is taken WAY too seriously by idiot fangirls. Please don't become one. So far, you seem to have a great head on your shoulders, and I look forward to seeing how you would set something up between Black and N. With the personalities you've given them, you could easily lean toward the less overdone situation of a dominant Black and submissive N. I'm always fascinated by that scenario.
Just, please don't fall prey to fangirlitis.
Your comic is crack, and it's lovely because of it. There's no need to get TOO serious with things, let alone do it WRONG.
Gravitation is crack, but it's taken too seriously. I believe in you. You can find a happy medium.

Foehn - 13 years ago
I don't think that it should be a part of the comic, but I'd be totally cool with it otherwise. Except for the order there. I think that it would be N/Black, but whatever.
But seriously don't make it part of the comic. Part of the humor of the comic is Black's semi-resistance to N and to make them in your comic world canon would ruin that element/make things A LOT more dull.
Wingull - 13 years ago
Yes, I do, but I agree with the people that said that it should happen at the end.
This comic is what made me ship Black/N, so I'd love it if it ended with them being a couple, but until the end, I think it's better to keep them single.
Howver, I wouldn't stop reading even if it became Black/White, even though I don't like that pairing at all (I always feel like they're related, like siblings or something). Like so many others said, it's your choice, but then, if you made a poll for this you probably wanted opinions, and here is mine.
Gyra Solune - 13 years ago
A well-written relationship like that is a good thing. ...As long as it's kept to being a normal relationship. Honestly, the fact that they fight by crossdressing, and then continue to crossdress means they'll probably end up being "OH MY GOD YES WE'RE GAY WE'LL PROVE IT IN PUBLIC WATCH US DO GAY STUFF LIKE THIS AND STUFF" instead of "...yeah, that's just our preference, what of it?". If you really, really, really, REALLY want it to go that way, I suggest studying up on other similar relationships. Watch Gravitation or something to see how it's SUPPOSED to be- a perfectly normal relationship that only runs into problems due to social mores. Hell, maybe even don't go that far, just make it a normal relationship and have everybody react the same way as they would for any other pairing. Before you write out the part where it gets official, for example if the two are in a situation where they might end up dying and can only wait, write it with a totally different character, like Caitlin or something, and when they inevitably don't die, have everybody comment the same either way. Or something. That's just my idea for practice or something. In the end, it's your call.
The overwhelming majority of voters seem to vote yes anyway.
Espeonage - 13 years ago
Yes, but many more lulzy innuendo fanservice adventures before that.
Yokusei - 13 years ago
I really want BlackxN (or vice versa) but I'm also kinda wanting ArtixBlack. Which makes me think one commenters earlier suggestion of having multiple shipping endings is a good idea. (especially since I find myself liking BxN, AxB, and KcalbxBlack)
Also, why DO people keep saying that if it's BlackxN it's gonna be porn but no ones saying that about WhitexBlack. It seems to me that the yaoi haters are just making up reasons not to have it.
And why no love for N's possessiveness. I think it's adorable how N wants Black all to himself.
doodlelover - 13 years ago
I'm a fan of ambiguity or making it subtly Black/N~ Seeing the development in their friendship throughout the comic (from Black's indifference towards N, to where they are now) made me fall it love with it. I love the pairing for completely different reasons now.
But really, I'd rather you just do what you like. Or go with Shifu's suggestion. I'm down with that.
Ice - 13 years ago

HAPPY FAMILY ENDING. EVERYONE LIVES TOGETHER IN ONE HOUSE IN PLATONIC RELATIONSHIPS. NO ONE EVER HAS SEX AND THEY ALL REMAIN PURE WAIFUS.

BLACK/N OR I DIE
This relationship was built so sweetly and it is like, the core of the comic's soul. There are no words to explain how involved I am with their story in this comic.
I just -love- how you write them, and I love Black's character development.
Myou - 13 years ago
I said no, mainly because Black just doesn't seem to feel the same way about N as N does about Black. Whereas Black likes White, and White gets along fairly well with him (which in my eyes shows that she at least be a bit interested). Black x White just seems to have more probability than Black x N.
That, and N's possessiveness towards Black (I mean, the only reason he's trying to make friends with the others is from the hope that Black will only be friends with him) really bugs me since it's ALWAYS there. Relationships where 1 person tries to keep the other all to themselves all day, every day just don't work... the person eventually gets sick of it and leaves (which can lead to the 'if I can't have you, no one can' psycho fits).
Sorry for the long reply, what can I say, I'm very opinionated~

Nit-Picking - 13 years ago
I hate to be all nit-picky about this, but just because Black/N happens doesn't make it Yaoi, yaoi is pornographic. A better definition would be Shonen-ai. Just saying.
Starshine - 13 years ago
No. As much as N seems to like Black, I really really don't see it happening. Black doesn't really seem to show any interest in him at all (maybe I'm biased because I dislike the pairing otherwise, but it's just how I'm seeing things). I'd rather see what happens between Black and White, because Black actually has feelings for her. :/ It's your call though, so do as you see fit.
Aiden - 13 years ago
I voted yes, because, well..your portrayal of that pairing is bloody adorable and they would be the cheesiest couple ever if only because of N.
However, I have a suggestion.
Why don't you do an alternate ending scenario?
Same ending, but different pairing result.
One has Black/White.
One has Black/N.
One has Black/Arti.
One has Black/Kclab
And one has Black/everyone.
That way, everyone is happy! Of course, it would piss various people off since they won't know which one is the actual ending, but it will satisfy us in the shipping apartment.
(or you could just leave the series as it is. Subtext only)
((Also, why are there people saying the story will be ruined if the pairing becomes canon, or that they would quit? Seriously. I didn't quit many of my favorite series because they ended up with my disliked pairing, in fact I continued to read it because the series was /good/. Sure, I would be a bit disappointed if White/Black became canon, but I would continue reading Black Adventures because the entire series is still amazing no matter which pairing ends up.))

shelly - 13 years ago
black/everyone
but really to be honest i think you should leave things vague between black and n at least up until the climax-if they got together too early it would most definitely be jumping the shark and thus ruining the story to some extent, and i feel that this comic isnt as much about full-blown shipping as it is just about gay humour, which is why i started liking it in the first place. I have similiar feelings with white/black- im pretty sure its one-sided and should stay that way. :/
but when it all comes down to it, its your call.

NO!! i just dont like the idea of black and N together. Black and White should be together, and N be with Arti or someone. You can tell right now that Black doesn't really care for N that way, and i think they should just be friends. But it's your comic soo.... Do whatever
asdfjkl; - 13 years ago
I'm not into yaoi and am not a big fan of it either. I also don't want it to happen in the comic, my reason's not that the pairing is yaoi but because of N being possessive of Black tends to annoy me (and he doesn't bother to make any friends he doesn't even seem to care much about Bel). But if it does happen I'd prefer holding hands but not kissing (or any of that adult stuff)
Mirai - 13 years ago

It would be cute as hell to see Black willingly snuggle up to N, but I'm sort of leaning towards Black/White in the ship region. If it ends the way the game does then that would be fine but I DON'T KNOW! It's really up to you!
It would be out of character for Black to willingly do that anyway.

I think BlackxN is a really, REALLY good pairing. I feel like the whole BlackxWhite thing is so played out by it being the overwhelming preferential pairing among the majority of pokemon fans. BlackxN, especially in this distorted Pokemon universe seems like an especially good pairing because of the chemistry which does exist.
The part where Black had N on his mind, and almost forgot that he was supposed to be in love with White is what did it for me. I've seen that from N's perspective in real life... so I know it's realistic.

Ah, but if you have Black shun N's advances and chase after White, you can have N battle Black with Zekrom/Reshiram out of jealousy. It would lead to a lot of D'awww moments and that way, everyone wins, really.
In this comic, I like the idea of them becoming good friends better than them becoming a couple. Also, it would kind of throw the Black liking White thing out the window.
Yes. I want it to happen.
My answer will not be very original aaaand I apologize for my terrible english, this is not my mother tongue so I hope you will understand what I'm gonna/trying to write :3
It's your comic and you do what you want, but I think a N/Black would be very, veeeery cool. But you know, if it is shonen-ai (hell, why do people always think of porn ?) and at the end I think it would be better o/
You perfectly know how do grow slowly a relationship, and that's sooooo great !
Plus, I saw little hints of this paring in your hole comic, and I find this absolutely cute. Keep going ! They are so adorable, so sweet. Why stop now ?
I will love you forever, your work is amazing
Ok this is only my honest opinion, and should in no way sway you from what you want. Why? Because it's your comic after all and should be able to write what you desire. Now as for my answer to your poll, I actually really want Black and N to end up together so very much. Watching their relationship grow sweeter over time and getting to see Black gradually come to care more about N deeply shook this corny little heart of mine, so yes, seeing them end up together would be something I would fully support. In any case, pairings aside I've also enjoyed this comic for all the awesome reference-filled antics and cute humurous moments- a happy ending with Black/N would be like the icing on the best cake in the world. XD Ok enough ranting, once again it's your comic and I just love you for bothering to make it in the first place-honestly that's what counts right? That it actually exists! Thank you so much, and you are really sweet for taking our opinions into consideration.
I would prefer Black/N (or N/Black. Not picky) as long as you tackle the boatload of issues N has, since I can't imagine him in a healthy relationship with the way he is now. But if it went Black/White, I wouldn't mind, since it's your comic, and it's lovely and can do no wrong.
I don't get why people believe so firmly that them becoming something like a ~couple~ would change completely the way they interact to each other. I get that Black has been having a change of heart regarding N in the last few episodes, but growing fond of him doesn't mean Black won't be awkwarded out by N's behavior from time to time.
I would love to see N learning to cope with his feelings, though. Someone, like Belle or Juniper, could teach him what jealousy is, and that you can only go so far with your possessiveness regarding someone else. I love N's innocence.
AFTER READING SOME OF THE POINTS PEOPLE HAVE IN THE COMMENTS I'M NOW LEANING TOWARDS NO FOR BLACK/N. :(
I mean, the gay humor is most amusing and all, but it just...just seems weird to imagine those two together fffff.
Sooo yeah. Same as before, it's your choice Author!Black. DO WHAT YOU FEEL IS BEST
I'll stop commenting now.
I'll be happy with whatever happens. But honestly, Everyone x Everyone would be so awesome. This comic is so much fun to read that anything would be great. I seriously mean it.
By the way... Why are most of the comments so long? Lolz, you guys are crazy. But that means you love the comic too.
Lololololololololol. Gravitation is NOT the example of a normal/healthy relationship. I love the series to death (mainly cause it's a lot of nostalgia for me and was my first manga/series into the yaoi/shounen-ai genre), but it is pure crack/craziness and while I enjoy the series and the development of the couple, it is anything but realistic or normal.
That being said, Black/N and the comic in general isn't very realistic or normal either, but it's not nearly as extreme as the personalities of the characters of Gravitation. Gravitation is a hilarious and (debatably) good manga, but is a terrible example of homosexual couples. What is best is for Black/N to develop naturally on it's own. Every couple has it's flaws, but as long as the communication is open and honest, they can be overcome. Black was very insensitive and uncaring (at least towards N) in the beginning, but over the course of the comic, he's begin to warm up to him. Same can go for N. N is still very possessive when it comes to Black and essentially thinks about him only and practically rages at anyone who wants to spend time with him, but lately he's been showing signs of expanding his circle of friends and becoming more independent, which is a good thing for both Black and him.
Overall: Gravitation was an amusing series, but should not be taken so seriously. This comic is a derpy comic, but it's also got some serious points to underneath. Whether or not it's intentional, can't say for sure. A Gravitation-crazy-esque relationship could somewhat fit in this comic, as it's all about humor with random touches of srs bsns then with follow ups of wth. Nut I strongly wouldn't recommend that, because I think it's best to develop the couple what would fit to the theme of the comic, which is whatever author!Black intends.
As for Black/White, I don't really care for it cause I've always saw the two as related. Always do when it comes to mxf protags. Plus, I get the feeling that White is either a lesbian or just isn't into Black like that...
I can't really reply to Gyra Solune, but...
>Watch Gravitation or something to see how it's SUPPOSED to be- a perfectly normal relationship
>Gravitation- a perfectly normal relationship
>Gravitation- normal relationship
...No. Just...no.
Not that it really has ANYTHING to do with the outcome of this poll OR how you do things, I just want to make it clear that this is WRONG. Whether or not you have watched/read Gravitation is beside the point. It is a terrible example of a homosexual relationship. I was a huge fan. WHEN I WAS 13.
I'm now a grown man, and I can say in all honesty that Gravitation is taken WAY too seriously by idiot fangirls. Please don't become one. So far, you seem to have a great head on your shoulders, and I look forward to seeing how you would set something up between Black and N. With the personalities you've given them, you could easily lean toward the less overdone situation of a dominant Black and submissive N. I'm always fascinated by that scenario.
Just, please don't fall prey to fangirlitis.
Your comic is crack, and it's lovely because of it. There's no need to get TOO serious with things, let alone do it WRONG.
Gravitation is crack, but it's taken too seriously. I believe in you. You can find a happy medium.
You know I do, and come on~
That's twice the votes for either No or Maybe JUST for Yes~
Winning~ ;>
(The question now is, are you going to follow the seme/uke standard with the slash, or are you one of those people that uses it interchangeably? If so, THAT IS MISLEADING, SIR.)
I don't think that it should be a part of the comic, but I'd be totally cool with it otherwise. Except for the order there. I think that it would be N/Black, but whatever.
But seriously don't make it part of the comic. Part of the humor of the comic is Black's semi-resistance to N and to make them in your comic world canon would ruin that element/make things A LOT more dull.
Yes, I do, but I agree with the people that said that it should happen at the end.
This comic is what made me ship Black/N, so I'd love it if it ended with them being a couple, but until the end, I think it's better to keep them single.
Howver, I wouldn't stop reading even if it became Black/White, even though I don't like that pairing at all (I always feel like they're related, like siblings or something). Like so many others said, it's your choice, but then, if you made a poll for this you probably wanted opinions, and here is mine.
A well-written relationship like that is a good thing. ...As long as it's kept to being a normal relationship. Honestly, the fact that they fight by crossdressing, and then continue to crossdress means they'll probably end up being "OH MY GOD YES WE'RE GAY WE'LL PROVE IT IN PUBLIC WATCH US DO GAY STUFF LIKE THIS AND STUFF" instead of "...yeah, that's just our preference, what of it?". If you really, really, really, REALLY want it to go that way, I suggest studying up on other similar relationships. Watch Gravitation or something to see how it's SUPPOSED to be- a perfectly normal relationship that only runs into problems due to social mores. Hell, maybe even don't go that far, just make it a normal relationship and have everybody react the same way as they would for any other pairing. Before you write out the part where it gets official, for example if the two are in a situation where they might end up dying and can only wait, write it with a totally different character, like Caitlin or something, and when they inevitably don't die, have everybody comment the same either way. Or something. That's just my idea for practice or something. In the end, it's your call.
The overwhelming majority of voters seem to vote yes anyway.
Yes, but many more lulzy innuendo fanservice adventures before that.
I really want BlackxN (or vice versa) but I'm also kinda wanting ArtixBlack. Which makes me think one commenters earlier suggestion of having multiple shipping endings is a good idea. (especially since I find myself liking BxN, AxB, and KcalbxBlack)
Also, why DO people keep saying that if it's BlackxN it's gonna be porn but no ones saying that about WhitexBlack. It seems to me that the yaoi haters are just making up reasons not to have it.
And why no love for N's possessiveness. I think it's adorable how N wants Black all to himself.
I'm a fan of ambiguity or making it subtly Black/N~ Seeing the development in their friendship throughout the comic (from Black's indifference towards N, to where they are now) made me fall it love with it. I love the pairing for completely different reasons now.
But really, I'd rather you just do what you like. Or go with Shifu's suggestion. I'm down with that.
This comic was how I fell in love with Black/N ;A; I SERIOUSLY WANT IT TO HAPPEN
o please o please have N/Black happen ;w;
HAPPY FAMILY ENDING. EVERYONE LIVES TOGETHER IN ONE HOUSE IN PLATONIC RELATIONSHIPS. NO ONE EVER HAS SEX AND THEY ALL REMAIN PURE WAIFUS.
White is the only bread-winner and the other four are housewives.
BLACK/N OR I DIE
This relationship was built so sweetly and it is like, the core of the comic's soul. There are no words to explain how involved I am with their story in this comic.
I just -love- how you write them, and I love Black's character development.
I said no, mainly because Black just doesn't seem to feel the same way about N as N does about Black. Whereas Black likes White, and White gets along fairly well with him (which in my eyes shows that she at least be a bit interested). Black x White just seems to have more probability than Black x N.
That, and N's possessiveness towards Black (I mean, the only reason he's trying to make friends with the others is from the hope that Black will only be friends with him) really bugs me since it's ALWAYS there. Relationships where 1 person tries to keep the other all to themselves all day, every day just don't work... the person eventually gets sick of it and leaves (which can lead to the 'if I can't have you, no one can' psycho fits).
Sorry for the long reply, what can I say, I'm very opinionated~
This comic is actually the reason why I like N/Black, so I extremely want them to get together! However, I will not stop reading it if they don't. This is just too awesome not to read anyway. :)
Black/Arti needs to happen.
Black/N is a decent runner up
I hate to be all nit-picky about this, but just because Black/N happens doesn't make it Yaoi, yaoi is pornographic. A better definition would be Shonen-ai. Just saying.
No. As much as N seems to like Black, I really really don't see it happening. Black doesn't really seem to show any interest in him at all (maybe I'm biased because I dislike the pairing otherwise, but it's just how I'm seeing things). I'd rather see what happens between Black and White, because Black actually has feelings for her. :/ It's your call though, so do as you see fit.
I voted yes, because, well..your portrayal of that pairing is bloody adorable and they would be the cheesiest couple ever if only because of N.
However, I have a suggestion.
Why don't you do an alternate ending scenario?
Same ending, but different pairing result.
One has Black/White.
One has Black/N.
One has Black/Arti.
One has Black/Kclab
And one has Black/everyone.
That way, everyone is happy! Of course, it would piss various people off since they won't know which one is the actual ending, but it will satisfy us in the shipping apartment.
(or you could just leave the series as it is. Subtext only)
((Also, why are there people saying the story will be ruined if the pairing becomes canon, or that they would quit? Seriously. I didn't quit many of my favorite series because they ended up with my disliked pairing, in fact I continued to read it because the series was /good/. Sure, I would be a bit disappointed if White/Black became canon, but I would continue reading Black Adventures because the entire series is still amazing no matter which pairing ends up.))
It's your call and all, but personally, if this turns up to be a full-blown yaoi comic, I'll be pretty disappointed.
I like everything vague.
N/Black, yes.
Or N/Cheren.
EITHER WAY.
black/everyone
but really to be honest i think you should leave things vague between black and n at least up until the climax-if they got together too early it would most definitely be jumping the shark and thus ruining the story to some extent, and i feel that this comic isnt as much about full-blown shipping as it is just about gay humour, which is why i started liking it in the first place. I have similiar feelings with white/black- im pretty sure its one-sided and should stay that way. :/
but when it all comes down to it, its your call.
What Doctor Rover said.
Seems like people problem with shippigns
I have the solution to all of them
BlackX[The Entire Cast]
Because bitches love Black.
Aaaugh! Sorry for double-posting...
o___0 Where did all the BlackxWhite shippers come from?
And why do people assume that if Black and N get together there will automatically be porn?

NO!! i just dont like the idea of black and N together. Black and White should be together, and N be with Arti or someone. You can tell right now that Black doesn't really care for N that way, and i think they should just be friends. But it's your comic soo.... Do whatever
I'm not into yaoi and am not a big fan of it either. I also don't want it to happen in the comic, my reason's not that the pairing is yaoi but because of N being possessive of Black tends to annoy me (and he doesn't bother to make any friends he doesn't even seem to care much about Bel). But if it does happen I'd prefer holding hands but not kissing (or any of that adult stuff)
I would so love it!! I am a big fan of this pairing!
But it would be very sad, if you lost readers because of that ;^;
so if you don't want to turn this into yaoi, I completely understand that. the choice is entirely up to you.
I'm not into yaoi, but it's your call.
Do what you want. As long as there isn't anything x-rated shown onscreen, I'm good.
I wouldn't mind if Black/N happened, but I think you should address Black/White first. I need closure.
Personally, I was/am never a big fan of BlackxN for how I'd view the pairing to work out, but your comic changes a lot of elements in N's character...so I'm able to tolerate it. Either way, I don't care...it's your comic; do as you like, just keep up the gay humor at least~
I say it's your comic; YOU SHOULD DO AS YOU LIKE.
WAIT, DOES THIS COUNT TOWARDS SOMETHING?
Either way I say no.
BLACK/N YES YES PLEASE. EVEN WHITE WANTS IT TO HAPPEN. PLEEAAAASE.
It would make my life complete - just one kiss, maybe some hand holding. ;)
Please don't put Black/White. Please don't. Oh my gosh, it's funny, but I just don't ship it.
It would be cute as hell to see Black willingly snuggle up to N, but I'm sort of leaning towards Black/White in the ship region. If it ends the way the game does then that would be fine but I DON'T KNOW! It's really up to you!
It would be out of character for Black to willingly do that anyway.
MAYBE.
Yessssssssssssssss plz.
Everybody should just end up with everybody.
THE DAY THEY GO TO BED TOGETHER IS THE DAY I CAN DIE HAPPY.
If this turns into a full blown yaoi comic I won't finish it sorry.
Keep things unporn like
Why no love for White? She's awesome!
(And she'd totally wear the pants in the relationship)
Do want.
Part of me want Black to end up with Arti... And N to end up with somebody random like CHEREN.
