Do you have any sexuality head canons for Banana Fish?
Ok so these are my personal sexuality head canons for the following Banana Fish characters. ( I went from answering this seriously to loosing it half way threw , I apologies )
Ash Lynx - Gay - Asexual - only has feelings for Eiji.
Ash loves Eiji a lot but due to his trauma it would take him a lot of time to recover before he is ready in doing anything remotely sexual with anyone. Ash is comfortable with Eiji being close to him an he is Ok when when it comes to being touched by Eiji. ( Ash even welcomes it )
As for sexuality remember that scene where Ash wakes up in the hospital surrounded by all those gorgeous nurses who try to give him any sort of attention and Ashâs main response is âYeah but where is Eiji ?â ( if Ashâs proprieties and sexual preference were not clear till now , then I donât know what is )
I know when Ash was 14 years old he mention there was a girl he might have loved ,that relationship I keep seeing it as Ashâs asexual side. He might have loved her but was still heavily traumatizes back then so nothing happened.Â
In the manga his sexual preference is aimed at men and never have I seen him show an interest in a woman. One time Ash says that he has a easier time dealing with men because he is used to them and knows really well what they are all about , that is why he is surrounded by his boys all the time.
Eiji Okamura - just gay for Ash - Let me just point out that before Eiji meets Ash he really wasnât sure , he mostly meh about his own sexuality until he fell head over heals in love with Ash and that changed everything for him. I am not sure that Eiji is attracted to men or women in general, I would also say his is Asexual but its a bit complicated then that.
Max Lobo - Bisexual - âWas pretty straight until he meets Ash and nurse Barbara happened â was what I originally wanted to say but I think Max might have been Bi before that he just wasnât so sure.Â
I have a head-canon where I am pretty convinced both he and Griffith where very open minded and talked about all kinds of things when they where in the army together and they got along really well together, the topics of different sexualityâs and there own insecurities where also among them . Also Jessica knew her husband was Bi long before Max ever realized it himself. Â
Arthur Frederic - furiously Gay - I have a theory that Arthur represses his own sexuality, tries to block it out but just gets more frustrated in the process. At first he was set on killing Ash and trying not to feel a damn thing while doing it but undoubtedly gets weak in the knees every time he is close to AshâŠand he hates it. Not to mention that Arthur would hate the thought of him and gay feeling for Ash Lynx , he would kill a man just for making a joke about that. Ever noticed how its easier for him send other people to kill Ash then he doing it himself in until the last minuteâŠalso he took his sweet ass time torturing Ash as a payback for his fingers but the truth was he just enjoyed seeing Ash make those faces in pain and sounds every time Arthur cut him, yes Arthur in fact dose get off to this.Â
Shorter Wong - Bi - He can say he is straight all he wants but Shorter masturbated ( multiple times ) to a picture of a person who looks A LOT like Ash and that was the basis for their friendship and he even admitted that if he was gay he would gladly hit Ash like a damn truck âŠyou know Shorter its fine ,a lot a people are gay for Ash ,not all of them good but you can be the secret exception and tell Ash he looks damn fine, Ash wouldnât be surprised and would appreciate it coming from Shorter and relentlessly tease him about it, like all good friends do.
Yut-Lung - gay - So very beautiful and gay and likes to seduce the men around him to get what he wants, also manipulating people is fun. On the how gay are you for Ash? list ,Yut-Lung would be supper gay for Ash. Also he has questionable feelings for Blanca when Blanca is nice to him and has no idea what to do about it ( just acts awkwardly ) . Due to his drinking habits he Is conflicted between slapping Sing or kissing him when he is drunk and when they argueâŠhe never acts on those either tho.Â
Sing - gay - Sing never ever strikes me as a guy who was interested in women , for some reason it never crossed my mind he might be attracted to anything but men. He himself isnât fully aware of this yet tho since he was too buys staying alive ..give him a few years, he will get there.Â
Blanca - Straight but Bi - Ok so by all accounts Blanca is the straightest man in this bunch but I have the feeling that he likes compliments no matter who is giving them as long as they are as good as his own. I can imagine Blanca flirting with men just fine , he just keeps telling himself its only women who interest him.
If by some miracle Blanca were to run into a very well dressed adult Ash Lynx asking him out on a fancy dinner , there would be no doubt in Blancas mind he himself is so very much Bi.Â
In conclusion in my Banana Fish sexual head-canon everybody is a bit gay for Ash and that is Ok.Â
