It is true that good emotions like love aren't good for Xellos, but how can one know what hate is without first knowing love? One without the other is imposible, so Xellos must be able to feel good things too. After all, Shinzoky feel hate. Besides, Filia doesn't show him much love, they're always fighting. Great AMV!
To answer why people make think they make a good couple here's why I think they'd be a good couple. Ever hear the expression, "bickering like an old married couple" Well they're old and they do bicker like an old married couple xD Thats why I think that though xD hehe.
I like love-hate couples, they're my favorite. I can't imagine these two being lovey-dovey or anything liek that but potenial for something is there. Like grudging rommance as oppoosed to traditional happily ever after rommance.
It's really interesting to read all the different opinions people are giving me about this couple.
I really don't pay that much attention to Filia, so I can't speculate on her feelings, but I think that Xelloss as, a sort of professional respect for her by the end of the series.
I agree with you that Xellos and Filia are not a couple. But they do seem to have developed some kind of friendship or at least cooperation at the end of the series. What I do want to say, is that I disagree about Xellos being unable to feel happiness. He can't stand other people's happiness, too true. But there is a reason he likes to amuse himself with tricks and that he enjoys tea and cake. But yeah, I don't think those two are in love.
Well, it was established that Mazoku feed off of negative energy.. so if pretending to be human and pulling off his tricks annoys his companions, I think Xelloss would think of it like dinner theatre.
O.O You have thought of it. I was more thinking on the lines of the Lust Sin. If Lust is Sin, Xellos would fed of it like any other emotion, therefore is pleasurable for him (just as singing happy songs would mean pain ^^;) Though personally I don't think lust is a sin. As for.. reproduction... well, what do you know? If dark and white powers, which are opposite, can nevertheless mix into a greatest power, why can't two very different beings find a middle ground where both of them are.. happy?
Possibly better we leave it like this too because... I was getting worried we were going out of hand and you would end up having to rate this PG16 ^^;; Gomen. BUMV!
That's what I thought. I might not agree with your position, but that's no reason to get nasty. That's what makes things like this so neat; two people can see the same thing and walk away from it with different understandings of what went on.
I'm a strong Filia/Xellos fan but I thoughfully enjoyed your video XD
I will say this in favor of the ship: why a dragon can feel love and a demon can't? Can't a Dragon feel hate? (Filia is a good example) ;) I think after the events of Slayers Try, the only thing clear is that "Dragons, Demons and Humans aren't that different."
Also in Slayers Try, Amelia attacked Xellos with happy and he appeared to be in a lot of pain. Love's even stronger than that, so that would hurt him even more, right?
The difference is, I think, that Xelloss isn't made of flesh and blood like the others are. He's an astral being that's causing a physical form to appear, and that's why his range of emotions is different from the range that the rest of the cast is able to feel.
Anyway, thanks for enjoying the video and the interesting discussion!
I don't think he was really in pain^^; As Lina said "that would be tortuous for all of us"
But I agree demons fed of negative emotions - can't help it, it's his nature (and dragons' to fed of positive ones, both are using the humans for self-benefit) But shouldn't lust be a neutral, or negative, feeling?
Xellos can feel pain (Garv) and, well, Filia isn't human either, neither possibly feels like humans. Thanks you too, I always enjoy a healthy debate^^
In beings with physical bodies, the act of sex evolved initially as a means to procreate.
However, mazoku reproduce aesexually, which means that, biologically speaking, they wouldn't need to be able to have sex, or derive pleasure from it. After all, Xelloss was created by Zelas alone.
What kills me is that the couple singing this are a couple of lesbos! Haha! I loved Rent! XD! I love that Xellos is Maurine!

Well.. whether that's possible or not is where it's up to the fans to interpret as they will, I guess.
