Now this is a pairing I can fully support....oh wait..we aren't talking that are we?
Never mind

Well it is speculated that Akai and Gin were born out of the same character source.

Eww..I hate Yaoi.

By the way, why did Akai call Gin "Koibito-san" in Episode 425? ???

from what I understand, it means both lover and arch-enemy depending on how it is used. It was hinted he was talking about his lover during the James Black case (or Vermouth from what I originally thought he meant) but it ended up being Gin he was talking about.

Oh, I didn't know it also means arch enemy! I see now, this clears up the confusion.
For a minute, I thought Gin's real name was Koibito. :D /jk

Thank you!

So a random passerby hearing manga-Akai speak would actually think he is talking about his lover/sweetheart/beloved...  Well, except for the whole shooting thing.
I see, wakarimashita! ^^

Yes, but in dead tree form.  Also, haven't used my scanner in ... probably 10 years and even if I knew where it was, doubtful it'd still be operable.  I could perhaps...  Take a photograph of it.
