Banana Fish

“He chose to love and die rather than hate and rule. [ . . . ] Ash.. He knows at least how to love.” “I’m happy now. Because I know there’s at least one guy.. who cares for me and wants nothing in return. I can’t believe how lucky I am. It’s the happiest feeling in the world.” “Sayonara America. Sayonara New York. But I’m not going to say sayonara to you, Ash. I know we’ll meet again, no matter how far apart we are.” it devastates me that people only know this as that one bl anime, the way people label this story does not give its complex plot and beautiful writing the justice it deserves. i will strive for the day this will be recognized as a dark, crime, thriller anime!!! excusing the rant, lets focus on the main protagonists: ash and eiji. what they have for each other goes beyond the boundaries of platonic and romantic love, they’re soulmates in every universe your honor :( loved how everyone in their circle knew that what they had for each other was so, so, special and that the whole world wouldn’t compensate for the bond they created. yet contrary to popular belief, (and what the manga says..) i do believe ash is still alive and him and eiji lived a wonderful life together in japan!!!!! i am not taking no for an answer!!!! idc idc!!!!…. i hate my life they were just kids rip ash lynx you wouldve loved codm
