    IF YOU DON'T KNOW NOW! AKUROKU MEAN AXELXROXAS!!! IN JAPANESE!
    You see Axel's japanse name is Akuseru and Roxas's japanese name is Rokusasu.
    Put them together and you get... AKUROKU!!

    So, I was watching AMVs until I came across an Akuroku video. Then something in the back of my head kicked me and I remembered the first time I saw/read the word "Akuroku."

    I finished playing KH2 a few months after it came out and I was hooked on it. So I went around different KH sites until I came across a fanfiction story about Kingdom Hearts. Now the pairing was AxelxRoxas but I didn't know that because I heard of Akuroku. It wasn't after I saw a few fics and vids until I learned that Akuroku is AxelxRoxas!

    So like above: When was the first time you heard the words, "Akuroku?"

    ...

    i remember seeing it in a fanart with axel and roxas, and seeing it in a fanfic somewhere. also, one of my roxas-obsessed friends was talking about it, but she was talking so fast that i couldn't understand what she said, and i thought i heard wrong.

    *votes last option* Akuroku? That has to be the funniest yet cutest-sounding couple name I've ever heard. XD Doesn't quite fit the pronounciation of their names (In English or Japanese)... unless it's close to a pronounciation of their names in a different language.

    Er...I think I first heard it on Youtube. I was looking for a KH amv and I clicked on one that said Akuroku, I had no idea what it ment but I watched it anyway. XD It took me about three videos to relize what that ment. *slow* I don't support it but...lol I like the name though! ^_^

    Uhh...*picks second last option* I really have no idea, I was probably randomly searching Youtube and wandering about Deviant Art or something like that, seeing as it's basicaly everywhere. The name is kinda cute but I don't really support it much.

    the second to last, I just don't remember... eventually I learned it had to do with AxelRoxas, but I was still kinda curious as to 'why AkuRoku?" cause there isn't and 'Aku' or Roku' in their names... but yeah... now I know... cause isn't Axel pronounced 'Akuseru' or something along those lines in Japanese? And Roxas 'Rokusasu' about ish... I'll just go now and read weird fanfictions... *scurries away*

    I was on Fanfiction.net and decided to search the game section for Kingdom Hearts and I saw AkuRoku. I didn't know what it was but I knew it was Yaoi because it said on the fic, I checked the fanfiction out and it had the crazyiest pairings ever like Sora and Riku was Soku and Roxas and Axel was AkuRoku.

    Hmm I still don't know why its called akuroku. It seems kinda dumb since there is no 'aku' or 'roku' in either of their names. And it took me, oh, about 3-4 months to figure out what it was.... Yes I am slow on things. ^-^

    Uhh... online somewhere. It might have been here. Or maybe DeviantArt or YouTube.

    I'm not a yaoi fangirl, but I think Akuroku is more plausible than some of the other relationships in the game.

    The first time I ever heard of Akuroku is probably this year. While I was browsing through my daily boredness on youtube, I found a really random (not to mention perverted :P) AMV/slideshow of Axel and Roxas. Afterwards, I realized that Axel and Roxas actually meant "AkuRoku" which I still don't get H~O~W their names mean that. >.>

    First time I read it, was on some fanfiction. It's cute, no? Also very catchy.

    I've never heard of that term until just now, therefore I pick the last option.

    Man, I've seen AkuRoku all over deviantart and fanfiction.net. it is a cute name but hell no do i support it, :nono:
    I truly believe that those two are STRICTLY friends, but i'm not gonna go bashing on the pairing because people are open to their own opinions and i don't want to be one of those stinky buttfaced bashers that rant alot. *coughLikeKairiBasherscough*
    AHEM! :yelling:

    .....

    i'm good. :rockdover:

    AkuRoku! I've known about them for ages, can't remember where tho. Might of been on the Stupid Files (yay DCWyverx)

    I'm not a fan of it, I don't actully like any Axel pairings. I don't really like Axel (ShockHorror) I used to be a uberfangirl of his, then, I dunno, I saw Saix in a different light and *KicksAxel* Bye Bye. Larxel is proberley the only one I see as Axel just seems really straight.
