What is a fanlisting?
"A fanlisting is simply an online list of fans of a subject, such as a TV show, actor, or musician, that is created
by an individual and open for fans from around the world to join." - Quoted from TheFanlistings.org
What the purpose of this fanlisting?
This fanlisting basically serves the purpose of "worshipping" the relationship between Seto Kaiba
and Mokuba Kaiba of the Yu-Gi-Oh series. From early on--in the anime, although I'm not absolutely sure if you're thinking about the manga--it's
revealed to us how close the brothers are and how much they mean to each other. Which is...well, a whole LOT. If you're not too
familiar with the anime, Seto and Mokuba are biological brothers (their original last name unknown), both adopted under Gozaburo Kaiba at a pretty
young age (but that's another story).
Seto Kaiba is the older of the two, and the powerful CEO of Kaiba Corp., which is a very successful and powerful company in the entertainment/gaming industry. The company's primary focus is on creating all sorts of high-tech stuff with relation to the game of Duel Monsters. Something that Seto is very fond and excellent at playing, and he spends most (if not all) of his time as Yugi's rival to regain his title as Duel Monsters champion. On the outside he almost always appears to be cold-hearted and too serious for his own good. But we've also seen a bit of his softer side when it comes to caring for, who else? Mokuba. Mokuba Kaiba is the vice president/co-owner to Kaiba Corp. (please correct me if I'm wrong on this), though he doesn't appear to be too hyped on Duel Monsters like his brother. So rather than actually playing the game himself, he stays on the sidelines cheering his brother on, and also does his share of work for their company. Unlike his brother, it's easy to see that Mokuba has a very warm-heart, and smiles often throughout the series (not a smirk, which is what Kaiba usually does). Just like Seto, Mokuba immensely cares for his older brother more than anyone/anything else; always looking up to him and thinking good of Seto.
Title Explanation
The title of this fanlisting was taken from a brief speech Seto made to Mokuba during Noa's Virtual World arc, episode 101. You'll have to see the episode for
yourself (to keep this spoiler-free), but he eventually tells Mokuba, "The past is over ... ... ... now let's move ahead, and don't look back." I was
very touched by his words, especially since they were meant as some sort of comfort and encouragement for Mokuba. And after learning about their past,
I think "Moving Ahead" is a perfect title because that's what they've been doing all along. Moving ahead (together) to overcome their troubles and
coming out on top, as cliche as that may sound. It nicely fits in expressing their preseverance; to get through the many obstacles in life, and their love
for each other.
What I think...
These two...what can I say? I love them both! They're actually the bigger reason why I enjoy watching the Yu-Gi-Oh series, no offense to Yugi fans.
Their brotherly love: I think it's sweet. It's very sweet to see these two concerned about each other's well-being. Sure, Seto commonly comes off as a jerk,
but when it comes to Mokuba, he plays a great role as the caring and protective big brother. That really makes you reconsider your judgement/impression of
Seto. Mokuba...hell, he's an absolutely sweet kid, already. I'd definitely want him as my little brother -- he's always worried about Seto, and always
wants to help him out. It's amazing how much these brothers will do for each other, I don't think you could even measure that amount. Plus, Mokuba's really
the only one who can make Seto crack a true, heart-warming smile. Whenever I see the rare times Seto smile because of Mokuba, I just have to make a
big smile myself. I can see the special bond they share. They're perfect siblings.
