The Remember Hideki Campaign

[Capella]

Ahem, this is the official thread for the "Remember Hideki" Campaign. This campaign was founded by Becster and myself, with the goal of reminding people in the Tsubasa fandom of the existence of Motosuwa Hideki, the protagonist of the Chobits series. Essentially, we got sick of pointing out to people that Hideki is Chii's "special person" in CLAMP terms, and therefore the Fai/Chii pairing is not happening.

We are a pro-Hideki/Chii, anti-Fai/Chii campaign. If you want to join and support Hideki and Chii, you can say so on this thread.

The members of the campaign are: Capella, Becster, Emiko, Kana-chan, Ashlee, Meowzy, Rekall, SailorYue-chan, Meliwan, dark_persian, Jeannette, Kjesta, Senefen, AkaiYuki, Kuro-puppy, Smile_For_Me, Sanmine, Quimmy, Fai, Bra-chan, unglued, Tricky, and Moro-dashi.

Hi! Becster here; co-creator of the Remember Hideki Campaign.

First thing's first.



*Cheesecake is subject to availability, and, considering this is the internet, currently there isn't any. In fact, there'll never be any cheesecake. Suckers!


Ahem.

Here's your treat for joining! Basically, we decided that sending threads off topic with people commenting on the sig was a bad idea and - through a flurry of insane plotting and discussion via pm - we decided to bring to you this lovely thread just for the campaign.

As Capella said; this is to remind people of the fact that Hideki is, was and always will be Chi's 'someone just for me'.

Thus this also makes us Anti-FaiChi, and Pro KuroFai/AshuraFai.

So, sit back, feel free to comment on why you like any of our pro-pairings, and why you dislike FaiChi, and enjoy your non-existant slice of cheesecake! >D

--Edit--

I think I'll post the members in my post as well, so I can update them if Capella's not here.

[Emiko]

Yeah!! *brings streamers and brownies*

I'm sure I'll have something more interesting to say later.

Because we all know that true love is turning your catgirl into a pool cover!

I don't understand why people are so ready to basically throw away the entirety of the Chobits manga in order to ship Fai/Chii who are together in Tsubasa for all of 2-3 pages.

Right, and leaving her with some guy you feel the need to flee across dimensions to escape from!

I don't get it either. The only explanations I can think of are: 1) Not having read Chobits, 2) not liking Hideki or Hideki/Chii, 3) liking the way Fai and Chii look together, and 4) needing to pair Fai with a member (any member) of the female sex for some reason.

Yup, this whole business just seems to me like people are grasping at straws to make Fai straight in any way they possibly can. I seriously have no other explanation other than those XD It just doesn't make sense.

[Jeannette]

The only explanation I have that hasn't been said is simply assuming... Chii is the first person Fai is ever shown talking to. I think some fans just automatically took the shipping from that. Which really is silly.

[Smile_For_Me]

Yes thank You, now this will rule over the Fai/Chii parings, I do hope Hideki will show up in TRC soon

[Rekall]

*salutes* Rekall here, checking in!

I can understand those who haven't read Chobits not knowing who Hideki is but I've seen some fans who *have* read Chobits be huge supporters of Fye/Chii.  It's those people I don't get.  I can't imagine Chii being paired up with someone besides him and I think if CLAMP meant for Fye to be involved with the character in the alarm system role they would have used Freya instead since she looks just like Chii but is unattached.

[Ashlee]

This is crazy. How can people not see that Fai is gay, and that Chi is Hideki. Chi made sure of that. "The Person just for me". And she said that it was Hideki, I didn't hear any "fai".  Did you guys??

Also, I don't see Hidiki using chi as a "alarm system", he can't even use her for basic computer stuff. He treats her as a person. Just how fai treats kuro as a person (who he likes to pick on)

also, I don't want cheesecake (me don't like), I want chocolate icecream ^^;; *shot*

[AkaiYuki]

Oh god, I'm in! *raises hand*

Fai/Chii is ridiculous... -__- Chii is a one-man kind of lady, and she makes it quite clear in Chobits that the "one-man" is Hideki.

I don't get how this fan pairing came to be. When I saw their 2-3 page interaction with each other in the first volume, I thought of it as more of a pet kind of relationship. Honestly, Chii is like a watchdog or something to him... If he loved her THAT much, why the HECK would he leave her ALONE with someone who he himself seems to be afraid of in a country where everyone is DEAD and then continue to NOT say a WORD about her for 100 chapters? Not even when he's alone do we see him think about her.

There's nothing there. Nothing. She's a pool cover he made because he was too cheap to get one of the expensive ones at the pool store.

That's right. Fai/Chii is NOT happening, and Hideki/Chii is forever.

Now gimme some of that cheesecake.

[Emiko]

*munches on cheesecake*

The Fai/Chii episode was so lame. It wasn't even couple-y. It was like Bee Train was trying to imply that there's something between them, but I couldn't see anything, even when they were TRYING.

The Fai/Chii thing I've always thought is the result of a certain desperation on some fangirls' part to het Fai up a little bit and yes I just made that expression up..

Though if you look at the state of movies, so often romance is just a given. A girl will be there just for the sake of the guy having someone to fall in love with. We aren't really shown why or how, it just happens. Can anyone here really think of that many movies where someone DIDN'T fall in love? It might be a reflection of some of our cultures that some people see Fai with a girl on his lap and automatically assume "love!".

Though I'm totally for HidekixChii, both of whom I've always been neutral about. Though maybe I'm biased because I love KuroFai so much.

I think you're right.  I think when people first look at Fye, they realize he's gay and then become desperate to hook him up with a girl to prove that he's straight (because apparently liking a gay person is impossible).  Chii's really the only female opinion to hook him up with since every other female he's met either already has someone, barely gets noticed by him, or everyone in the group treats her the same way.

[Capella]

Added you, AkaiYuki! Welcome to the campaign, have some non-existent cheesecake. And Smile_For_Me, are you interested in joining?

Yeah, I think people often assume romantic relationships too easily, particularly between members of opposite genders. In movies and novels, there always has to be love interest, so one looks around for the nearest person and in this case...Aha! Chii! *facepalm* I'm probably guilty of this fallacy as well, but in this case there really is no build up afterwards, so people are just going their initial assumption without looking at anything that happens afterwards (see Fai not ever thinking about Chii).

This is crazy. How can people not see that Fai is gay, and that Chi is Hideki. Chi made sure of that. "The Person just for me". And she said that it was Hideki, I didn't hear any "fai".  Did you guys??

Unless someone has discovered that "Fai" is the Celesian equivalent of "Hideki", I did not hear anything like that.

Really, Hideki wouldn't put Chii in such a potentially dangerous situation. I think of the scene in Chobits where Chii pulls a flower out of the ground to give it to Hideki, and he's afraid that she might get broken doing things like that, and I wonder why anyone would say that Fai would be "better" for Chii than Hideki.

You may have as much chocolate ice cream as everyone else has cheesecake.

[Sailor Yue-chan]

*eats some cheeseckae*

hey, on my birthday, ill bring some of my cake to the party. its going to be triple chocolate fudge *__*

[Meowzy]

Mmmm! Cheesecake! *_*

The whole point of Chobits is that Chii belongs with Hideki. Just like the whole point of CCS is that Sakura belongs with Syaoran. Now tell me, if they keep SxS alive in Tsubasa, why not ChiixHideki?

I hope CLAMP will hook Chii from Seles country up with Hideki, just to annoy BEETRAIN for that filler ep they did. >3

[Kuro-puppy]

count me in too, Chii and Hideki should be together..end of story!

[Smile_For_Me]

Yes, I would like to join the "TRHC"

Now BeeTrains Fai/Chii epi was cute, in a father/daughter way, or that of a close friend, but remeber the epi had an open ending, maybe Chii will find a Hideki in that world some way or another, and that Chii in Celse will find another Hideki in that world, or vise versa. I like Chi, and I sorta feel like its a little bashing in here when the question of Fai/Chii relationship problem........

[envyofthestage]

I'm one of the less polite KuroxFai fans. Fight fire with fire! Or water! Water does seem like a better idea.

My main reason for knowing that FaixChi is -I quiote-  (ahem) "stupid, stupid, stupid!" is that Fai treats her like a pet, patting her head and -well I don't know what Bee Train does to their true loves- but I don't turn them into pool covers. :-/

[Sanmine]

Sign me up for the campaign!

Fai/Chii never really occured to me until I stumbled across the pairing on fanfiction.net. I never thought of the two having a relationship that was in any way romantic.

Hideki/Chii all the way! It seems silly to me to throw away a previously established and popular pairing for the sake of pairing Fai up with a person who appeared for less than 3-4 pages.
