November 4th, 2008: Two years have passed since I've last updated. Damn, forgive me! Originally, I strongly felt Koimizu was complete, but now I feel there's additional content to be added. Expect new sections to come soon, along with many screencaps!

Welcome to Koimizu, the first website to Replicashipping. I am the founder of Replicashipping, as well as probably the most devoted follower.

Perhaps you've visited several shippers websites, heard the term several times, or read posts mentioning the term. What exactly is shipping? Relationships. In a simple defination, it is the belief that two characters from a movie, a television series, a book, a play, an anime, or reality have the possibilty to spawn a relationship. They can also seem to be meant for each other, or have emotions for one another. The supporters of shipping believe these contents.

Koimizu (which is Japanese for "tears of love") orbits around a particular theory from Pokémon. The most highly known, and believed in, shipping is Pokéshipping, which is for Ash and Misty. The collateral are Rocketshipping (Jessie and James) and Palletshipping (Ash and Gary). However, there are dozens of more pairings.

As for myself, I enjoy viewing the aspects of all pairings. I find it civil to understand all possibilities. There are many websites dedicated to particular shippings, and some to shipping in general.

So, what is Koimizu based upon? It is the theory that Mewtwo and Ai could become a couple. Although there are not many disciples of this one, the people who agree with it take it seriously. It is not played around with, unlike many other pairings.

If this ship turns you off, you have two options: Leave, or stay out of slight interest. But this does not mean bashing. I am open to my thoughts, and bashing won't change them. There are many ships that I personally disagree with, but I respect the people who believe in them. It's their right, and they should be entitled to following it without being flamed.

Enjoy the site ^_^

P.S. Replicashipping, I should note, also goes under the following names: Loveshipping, Cloneshipping, Copyshipping. I did not know these names existed at the time, so I don't take credit for the ship itself... also, someone made the motto “Love lives on.”

Friday, June 30, 2006: :::blows dust off of website::: Holy crap. It's been FOUR YEARS since I've updated this thing? WOW, time goes by quickly. I deserve an award for laziness. Seriously. I'm online all day every day, and yet do nothing. I still have yet to write like six fanfics (which I've wanted to write since, oh, 1999!), make my Mewtwo website (again, since 1999), etc.

So, what have I updated? There is now a screencaps section for the featurette, and I changed Koimizu's picture.
