I am reminded of when I went "Fullmetal Alchemist"-DVD-shopping with a pretty girl friend a few weeks ago: the cashier guy trying to chat her up over mutual FMA love stuttered to a horrified stop when we called the series 'cute'. Because violence + blood + angst + shonen = automatic negation of all cute vibes, you see.

Dear Clueless Geekboy Skulking About the Manga Section in Hastings, I'm sure you're thrilled that I noticed you because of your enormous and dramatic floor-length black fuzzy felt duster. However, it is June in West Texas and 96 degrees in the shade. You are not impressing anybody. And Morpheus called to say he hates you. Sincerely, Kawcrow P.S. Fuzzy black felt?!
