content warning: MANGA SPOILERS, canon divergence bc im not gege and they all deserve to be happy, reader described as pregnant, giving birth/c-section, hospitals, pain (kinda), big brother megumi + tsumiki, lil corny family,

an: happy fathers day to our fav dad :DDD reader is described as having dark hair in comparison to satoru but tbh every hair color is dark compared to white unless you have white hair them im sorry

“Hi baby.”

“What do you want, Satoru?”

“I wasn’t talking to you.”

You take your eyes off from the screen to find Satoru lying across the couch, his head very close to your stomach. His blindfold is hanging around his neck, his shiny, blue eyes staring right at the bump.

“He doesn’t have ears yet.”

“You don’t know that. We have father-daughter telepathy. She can hear me.”

“If anyone was going to have telepathy with him, because he is most definitely a boy, it’s going to be me.”

He rolls his eyes, lying his head against your stomach as he continues staring down - his eyes focused. You reach down, pressing your hand in his hair as you start carding through his white locks.

“What were you like as a baby, Toru?”

“Horrible. Came out super late, cried all the time, total sweet tooth.”

“I asked about you as a baby. Not now.”

He rolls his eyes, sitting up to ruffle your hair. You shrug him off before leaning your head against his shoulder, his hand placed directly on your stomach, which he does almost every time he’s near you. You can hear his stupid voice in your head. She has to know I’m here too, not just you mama.

“Shut up. Stop bad mouthing me in front of our child. That’s not a healthy parenting model.”

“You screamed my head off for throwing out your precious kikufuku in front of Megumi last week. Healthy parenting model, my ass.”

“Well some things are just unforgivable, sweetheart. And he’s a big boy now.”

He leans over and presses a kiss to the top of your head, before pressing his cheek against your hair. “What was my baby like as a baby?”

“I came out super early. I think they had to stay in the hospital for a few days because I was too weak. But after that, I think it was okay.”

He leans over, pressing himself harder into your frame as he squeezes. You place your hands in his hair again, running through as you wait for him to talk. He’s thinking - too hard.

You understood that a baby, a real one - not grown up and super self sufficient like Tsumiki and Megumi were - was anxiety inducing. But ever since you had told him, Satoru was stressed out, more than usual. Shoulders always tensed up, freaking out over painting the room or assembling a crib, or picking a godfather.

“Love?”

“Yes, Satoru?”

“Do you think…the baby will be scared of me?”

“Because you’re the strongest? Of course, not. Megumi and Tsumiki always thought it was so cool when they were little, smacking their tiny little hands against it while laughing.”

“No, no. Not because of that.”

You push your palms against his cheeks, pulling his face out of the crook of your neck. He looks into your eyes, the look shy. His eyes waver down to his arms, littered in scars, before looking back up. And now you get it. He’s talking about his scars.

They’ve faded over the years, from back when Megumi was still possessed by Sukuna. You remember when they were angry, red and fresh, when he came home, and nearly made your heart drop out of your chest.

And when it was well and over, you had kissed them hundreds and hundreds of times over until Satoru knew, with full confidence, that you love him. And Megumi had apologized, millions of times before he understood that none of it was his fault. You love Satoru. Scars and all. And you love Megumi. Possession and all.

“Satoru. You know that we all-”

He shrugs you off, the look exasperated.

“I know you guys love me. But I’m talking about the baby. There’s just so many of them and they’ve faded a good amount but-”

You lean over and press your lips to his, kissing him softly before you let go. You can feel him deflate at the sensation, giving you the smallest of smiles when you pull apart.

“You guys have father-daughter telepathy. She could never be scared of you.”

You see the smile spread across his face as he rolls his eyes at you, shaking you at the shoulders.

“So you agree? She’s a girl.”

“No. He is most definitely a boy. But I’ll let you have it for tonight.”

“You’re so generous.”

“I know Satoru, it’s one of the best things about me.”

You feel him cup his hands around your face as he presses a light kiss to your nose.

“Yes. It is.”

“I was being sarcastic.”

“I know that, love. But I wasn’t.”

Unlike Satoru and much more like you, your baby is born early. What you thought was a routine ultrasound turned into an emergency c-section and your little baby coming a little earlier than you had planned.

That was hours ago. Satoru has been watching you, your chest heaving up and down as you sleep, since they moved to this room. Your daughter, because Satoru was right, was down the hall in the NICU, in a tiny little plastic incubator. With Megumi and Tsumiki.

This day had already been too hard for Satoru. And it wasn’t even over yet. Watching you get pushed onto a table, your baby coming out and not crying, finding out it was a girl but you weren’t even conscious enough for him to stick it to you, having to pick who to spend his time with.

He picked you. Because Megumi promised that he’d watch her there, make sure she wasn’t alone. He knows how much it meant to the two of you to get to meet her together so he’ll wait. I mean, that is his little sister and all, he doesn’t mind watching her. After Satoru agreed, he couldn’t help but smile at Megumi, literally sprinting down the hall to meet her where Tsumiki was waiting.

He watches you shuffle in your sleep, your eyes fluttering open. He nearly knocks the table as he stands up, placing his hands on your arms as you wake up.

“Satoru.”

“Love, oh my god, I was waiting for you. To wake up, I mean. Are-are you okay? Does anything hurt? Do you want me to get anything?”

He watches your eyes pinch shut as you raise your hand, clamping it right across his mouth. Your little raspy voice breaks out and he can feel the tears streaming down his eyes at the sound of it.

“Do you ever shut the fuck up?”

He can’t help but laugh, the tears still streaming down. God, he loves you. Bedridden and still giving him fucking attitude. You’re okay and sassing him around and he loves you.

He watches the smile spread across your face as you keep your hand there, now wiping his tears off. You look around the room, the crib still neatly made.

“Wait, where’s-”

“Down the hall. Megumi’s there with her.”

“Her? It’s a girl?”

You can feel the pride bustling in your chest, the tears now filling in your eyes. She’s a girl. Your tiny little baby that you were carrying for the past months was a girl. You can buy her little dresses and teach Satoru how to braid her hair and-

“Told you so.”

“Shut the fuck up. I know you’re not sticking it to me while I’m literally in a hospital bed. Need I remind you, that you did this to me.”

“How did I do this to you?”

“You knocked me up!”

You both laugh as Satoru helps you up into the wheelchair, pushing you both down the hallway to where she was.

“You see her yet? Is she cute?”

“No, it’s only been a few hours. I wanted to see her together.”

He swings the door open, pushing you to the front into the room. You can see Megumi seated right next to the little box, his hand inside with Tsumiki watching from the other side, her eyes focused on the crib.

But you don’t take notice of your baby first. What you notice first is the shirts Megumi and Tsumiki are wearing, matching pink that say “big brother” and “big sister.”

“Satoru. Don’t tell me you guilt tripped them into wearing the shirts.”

They both run over at the sound of your voice, pressing you into a hug. You reach forward, resting both of your hands in their hair as they help you up, holding you steady in the air and running their eyes over you to make sure you’re okay.

Satoru had bought the five of you matching shirts to wear when the baby was going to be discharged. And they were corny as fuck. With dad, mom, big sister, big brother, and baby written on them. Megumi said he was going to burn his in a fire. You and Tsumiki hid yours somewhere in the basement, pretending you lost them. Satoru found them in five minutes. But here they are, wearing them.

“You don’t have to wear those. I’m sure he pulled the whole, my wife is dying, my baby is sick but-”

“I didn’t ask them to wear those. At least not today.”

You look over to find Satoru smirking, worst than he ever as before, at Megumi especially, as he starts ruffling his hair, cooing over how cute he was.

“Just, shut up about it. I thought it would make your depressed ass laugh.”

“Toru, quit bugging him.”

You press a kiss to Megumi’s cheek before Satoru crushes him in a hug. He’s always been your sweet boy.

You and Satoru slowly shuffle over to the little box, sticking your hands in to hold hers. Her eyes are pinched shut, a tuft of dark hair at the top of her head. You can feel the tears rising in your eyes, quickly glancing over to see Satoru crying too. Megumi and Tsumiki are on the other side, directly across, sweet smiles pressed on their faces.

“Dark hair, Toru.”

“Just like her mom.”

You both can’t help but stare at her, rustling around in the little crib. But what catches your eye is the dark patch of red on her left eye, instinctively reaching over to touch it.

“Megumi. What happened?”

“We think it might be a scar or something. The doctors said she’s okay though, it doesn’t hurt her or anything.”

You immediately crane her head over to Satoru, whose switched spots with you and is now softly pressing his fingers over the skin. You lean over, whispering in his ear as you both watch her.

“Think she looks scary with her scar, Satoru?”

“What the hell are you talking about? She’s perfect.”

“You guys match. A scar for her and a scar for you.”

He looks over and you watch the realization spread across his face as he understands what you’re getting at. He gives you a sweet look before pressing one the softest kisses to the top of your hair. He’s crying even harder now, his entire frame shaking. Fucking sap.

She curls her hands into Satoru’s, squeezing his pinkie finger.

“What the hell, Toru? She didn’t do that for me.”

“It’s father-daughter telepathy, love. You wouldn’t get it.”

yaaaay tuna time tuna time. ok so the manga is I Love Amy and its about a yandere girl making friends with the lesbian mc to get closer to her male crush but finds herself really enjoying spending time with her. very good stuff highly recommend. anyway I will be scalping this whole plot for my brainrot! as I'm basing this off a wlw manga please read yan and darling as being the same gender (ex: dazai with a male darling, higuchi with a female darling) thank u.

so, following the aforementioned plot, darling actually starts out as yans TARGET instead of yans crush, accidentally getting on their radar by being seen talking to yans current obsession one too many times during routine reconnaissance (stalking). obviously they need to get rid of them! theyre getting in the way! crush shouldn't ever talk to anyone else but them!!!!

when local freak loner weirdo yan suddenly asks if you want to hang out with them, alone, it occurs to you that you should be a little more cautious- but, truth be told, you've had a crush on them for a while... and you know its probably impossible that they swing your way, but couldn't hurt to give it a shot, right?

with this in mind (and lowkey kinda entranced by how pretty they are up close), you agree.

lucky for you theyre perceptive enough to sniff out that ur a fruit and thus a complete non-threat, so you live another day! and, to their surprise, they find themselves kind of enjoying hanging out with you.

yadda yadda yadda, the two of you strike a deal to help them get in good with their crush, theyve had pretty bad luck with this so far, but they seem to like YOU, so you can get them some one-on-one time! you're pretty bummed you were right about the person you like not being interested, but hey! theyre still your friend! as long as they can be happy, you’ll be happy for them! on their end, theyre just using you (or so they think). sure, you’re ok to hang out with or whatever, but your companionship doesnt mean anything compared to their crush. once they get what they want, youre pretty much donezo.

i wont go on for too much longer about this here but im sure you get the idea, over spending time with them as friends and dedicating so much of your time to trying to help them find their happiness, yan starts turning their attention on YOU instead. they find themself getting irritated when they catch you talking to other boys/girls, what did you suddenly get a s/o or something? are you gonna stop hanging out with them? you cant DO that youre their ONLY friend! or they’ll surprise themself by desperately wanting to pass up spending time with crush to go stay with you instead. or getting REALLY REALLY mad when they see people being rude to you when they used to not care. little things like that. i feel like this concept could be really good for soft yan stuff but you COULD make it darker if you wanna.

characters i think would work with this: bsd - dazai (specifically pm dazai cuz hes a freak with no social skills), akutagawa, poe, ranpo, sigma, higuchi, gin, lucy. genshin - childe, scaramouche, albedo, cyno, eula, ei (i feel a modern au would work best for ei here), rosaria, shenhe

- 🩹

something about the holidays has fried my brain but i cant let your asks go unanswered any longer !!!!! p.s i love amy is just wonderful thank you for the rec ^^ im just gonna go over this with childe because you deserve genshin content from me :< spoilers for childe's real name (tho i think everyone knows it by now lol) unedited!

context: X is the person ajax likes (as you can tell i am very good at coming up with names :>) some things here are taken from i love amy so give it a read !! it's totally worth it i promise~

at the time, you couldn't come up with a single reason why ajax had approached you all those days ago, accompanied only by a menacing look. in fact, you could still recall how the malice in his eyes deepened once he caught sight of you stumbling your way over in his direction.

you had heard the rumors about him (like everyone else had), and while you didn't want to judge someone because of what others had to say, you couldn't deny the fear that consumed you when he stared at you with thinly veiled distaste—right after interrogating you about your relationship with the person you had just been conversing with. it occurred to you far too late that ajax had witnessed the conversation between you and X, and now you were about to be at the receiving end of the terrors you had only heard of in passing.

your brain went into overdrive thinking of an answer. childhood friends? what if he got jealous that you spent so much time with X, time he couldn't have? but if you lied about not knowing X, he'd come after you anyway if he found out the truth, right? so you tried to come up with a lukewarm answer, something to show that you weren't trying to meddle with his…potential relationship. whether you said the two of you were partners for a project, neighbors or family friends, whatever it was, it worked in convincing him that you weren't interested.

but it worked too well, as you soon came to realize, after noticing how ajax was attached to you constantly. at your response, he had lit up and quickly pulled you closer, declaring you would help him by gathering information and helping him plan for the perfect date (and of course, there was not a single moment of consideration for your say in the matter)

even though you insisted over and over again that you'd be no help, with no experience in dating or flirting with anyone, let alone someone as popular as X, and claiming you weren't close enough with them to ask such detailed questions, ajax was far from bothered. perhaps, in his eyes, you were the perfect sidekick—obedient enough to drag around like a sulking pet, but not so compliant that you weren't of some use, at the very least for entertainment. and maybe, just maybe, because he was starting to feel a little lonely.

what he didn't know at the time was that you, despite all the warnings and whispers, had a crush on him. you reasoned with yourself that most people would fall for him, if not for his fixation with X. and although you knew he was 100% infatuated with someone else, you had foolishly thought it wouldn't be the worst idea to be his friend. you had hoped that hanging out with him and being faced with the reality that he would never look twice at you would work as a bitter yet effective remedy to the flustered racing of your heart and the fluttering sensation that seized you.

surprisingly, ajax made for decent company, disregarding the pain of unrequited affection. all your time together was mostly spent talking about X, which you never complained about, but you also learned a little about him, like the fact that he had younger siblings and that he participated in a lot of archery competitions. it occurred to you for a moment, that given his track record, ajax being so well-versed with a weapon probably wouldn't end well, but you shut down that thought almost immediately. he may talk about wanting X all for himself and may have some concerning fantasies, but even he wouldn't go to such lengths, right?

the more time you spent with him, however, the fewer opportunities you actually had to talk to X. still, despite how little use he had for you, ajax still kept you by his side. maybe it was, in his eyes, a good thing that you were staying away from X. some part of you itched to tell him that you wouldn't betray him like that...not like it mattered to him. you knew he was only using you, either as an information source or a test subject, and even if it hurt to know he'd never care about you like he did X, you never once considered distancing yourself from him

you liked to think that he liked your company too, at least as an acquaintance. after all, since that first encounter, he hadn't threatened to snap your arm if you didn't tell him everything you were talking to X about. maybe that time he dragged you away mid-conversation with your friend should have been alarming, or maybe that other time when you woke up tied to a chair in his basement ("don't worry," he had brushed off your concerned look, "i only did this because you kept saying you were too busy to come over. anyways…") should have sent you running, but you justified it to yourself as his odd way of watching out for you.

or more likely, the warning signs just flew over your head because you couldn't imagine that he would be as creepy as the rumors said. you did idolize him to an extent that you tried to justify all his strange habits. it didn't matter much, anyway, since you were well aware this arrangement was temporary—you were only serving as replacement company until he finally got with X, and then your presence in his life would instantly be shut out.

because you were under the impression that it was all temporary, you didn't mind, even when he started overstepping into your personal matters. more than once you had to cancel meet-ups with friends in favor of spending time with him, and the few times you did manage to be away from him, ajax would interrogate you about every detail of your day without him, and at the very end would demand you tell him if you enjoyed being away from him, scowling until you placated him.

and then, the 'practice dates' started feeling a little too real. with him insisting on feeding you spoonfuls of dessert and latching onto your hand uncomfortably tight. but honestly, you couldn't complain, even if you knew something was wrong. going out with X didn't seem as much of a priority as it was a way to convince you that he desperately needed your help in 'practicing'.

all this while, you were under the impression your role was simply to be a good friend to ajax. naturally, when you had an opportunity to talk to X again after such a long time, you jumped to take it. what you didn't expect was for ajax to come up behind you, gently moving you aside to instead tower over X, glaring at the person he'd been pining over so desperately. the words that left him next were similar to the ones you heard all those months ago, except, these were the last words you expected him to say.

"you," he spat out, "what the hell were you talking to [name] about?"

bonus because i have too many thoughts about this :>

you getting an s/o. ajax is upset for many reasons. a) you never told him that you liked someone b) were you really going on weekly dates with your new partner?? you never even hung out with him that consistently! what, were you throwing away your friend just for this new guy? and c) how could you leave him behind like this?! suddenly, your new s/o is bombarded with the sensation that someone was constantly glaring at them, and then at every corner, ajax is standing there...just...watching. maybe he was just shy?

you manage to convince X to give him one chance. one date, so he can try to win them over. what you don't expect is for ajax to try stalling. he comes up with reasons for more practice dates, asks you for more 'tips', and if he absolutely has to go, he doesn't do anything that he was supposed to. the date is a fail, despite all the practicing he did. to you, he claims it was the nerves that got to him. come on, comrade! you gotta help him practice more now!

ive thought a little more about devils nest dungeon meshi au (demons nest?) and here is the idea i was bouncing around in my head. id love for some kind of lore compliance check because i havent really gone back over the manga since i finished it, or sought out any kind of supplemental material, and i like the challenge of fitting these kinds of things into the boundaries of the source (once again DUNGEON MESHI SPOILERS. for people who havent read the manga at all)

so you have this demon (in a dungeon) (granting desires and eating them) (getting stronger) (hoping someday he can get out of the dungeon). and hes been in there a while and boy does he love watching humans get their greatest wishes granted, but the part where they gradually go mad with power or get disenchanted with the results and also he has to eat their desires anyway eventually kind of blows. he wishes he could only have the good part where he gets to make people happy forever is that too much to ask. maybe when he gets out of the dungeon he can do something about that. love to get out of the dungeon

anyway fast forward a while and this guy comes in. some teenage prince from a tallman country thats wracked with internal conflict and what HE wants is to become immortal, because that way when he takes the throne his reign will be eternal and the different clans will stop fighting over the right of succession. thats so specific. the demon loves it. he can just give him a peaceful united empire here, in the dungeon, which he can rule eternally-- no he wants the one at home. well. the problem with that is that the demon is here, in the dungeon, and not out there.

HELP WANTED NOTICE: i dont remember what the exact plan was vis a vis the winged lion getting up to the surface in the manga and i know it Had to be simpler than "just walk out of there" because why would it have had to steal laios' body about it. WOULD a sufficiently dedicated dungeon lord be able to get back up to the surface with their respective demon in tow.

ADDITIONAL HELP WANTED NOTICE: if a demon WAS freed from the dungeon without being powerful enough to get out under its own strength, how much magic would it be able to perform out there? would it be able to make somebody immortal without the big magic-insulation box. i feel like this changes a lot if greed Can grant ling immortality vs if now that hes out of the dungeon he cant really do shit.

either way now that hes out he does not technically need to eat this kids desires specifically anymore. if the immortality thing is a bust, maybe hes shaken by the experience of not being able to fulfill somebodys wish for the first time. but HIS wish has been fulfilled instead? complicated! maybe ling drags him back to his kingdom to help him gain the throne, or maybe he gets mad and leaves and greed never finds out what happens to him, but whatever goes down it changes his worldview and hes starting to develop a sense of personhood separate from the rest of the Demon Conglomerate, and also desires that are unique to Him

but he still wants to help people realize their own desires and maybe thats even strengthened by the fact that now he personally knows how much it owns (funny) to want something so bad and finally get it. so im thinking eventually he goes back to his old dungeon, now way smaller, and he sets up shop, and just waits for people to come by so he can help them in a less exploitative way. like he graduates from Addiction Metaphor to Healthy Coping Mechanism Metaphor. and the chimeras all find their way there eventually and he wins their trust one at a time until they are forced to admit this weird overly genuine dungeon guy kind of rules. his personality is laios basically he has the exact same type of autistic swag

but. if the elves heard about a demon who was just fucking going up to people floor 1 like hi im a demon welcome to my dungeon. they would shit bricks. so the raid also has to happen at some point. and i Am putting ling in there albeit as backstory so im open to suggestions as to how the rest of the cast of fma can fit into this (father and the homunculi as other more typical demons obviously) (no clue about anybody else) (come and play toys with me)

I have got to get over my grudge against face filters or face-tuning or whatever it's called when they blur the actor's face so their skin is completely smooth and texture free and very pale and has no dimensionality.

I'm watching Light On Me, and I'm charmed by all the characters, but I keep getting distracted by the fact that none of them look like human beings. grrr. Like, it kind of fits the comic book tropey-ness of the story, but I still would prefer to see their god danged faces.

(Fun fact: Shin Woo's actor's face is the reason I started watching Light On Me in the first place. Kang Yoo Soek has a small part in Beyond Evil, and within a minute of his appearance on screen I was like, who is THAT???👀, and immediately went to MDL to see what else he was in. Turns out he was in a BL! so I decided it was finally time to check this one out. Maybe I'm just resentful about them hiding his face from me. On the other hand, Beyond Evil and Light On Me are from the same year, and he looks a decade younger in the latter, so I guess the filtering helps with that? idk, I'd prefer everyone's real faces. But I realize that with this, as in many things, I am not the target audience.)

My thoughts on Light On Me so far (im on episode 3 oops, actually it was 4): It feels like a high school romance comic book aimed at 12 year olds come to life. Which is not at all a criticism! But the aesthetic—bright, flat lighting, wide open spaces, saturated pastels and primary colors, the aforementioned face filtering—along with the trope filled, bare bones nature of the story give it this artificial feel. I don't read comic books, manga or manwha of any genre, so I could be wrong in this comparison, but it does tell like it exists outside of the real world in the same way that Disney Channel kids shows do (though not in the same world.) The characters, so far, don't feel like they exist outside of the story, not shallow, exactly, just that the rest of their lives and relationships are a vague blur, and the initial conflict—Shin Woo doesn't want Tae Kyung to join the student council!—feels like the sort of artificially induced high stakes of a kid's show. The—gasp—pratfall with a dildo.

I probably sound judgmental, but that's partly because super fluffy shows aren't my thing in general, and partly because I'm in a weird mood right now where even the real world doesn't feel all that real to me, but I reiterate, this is not a criticism. The show is creating a certain feel to tell a certain story, and (so far at least) it's doing it effectively.

And I am intrigued by the story, and the characters! Tae Kyung who has been convinced by the wise teacher to try making friends. Da On, the student president who is so kind and can't say no to anyone. Shiwoon, the class clown who can see what's happening but won't get involved. So Hee, the girl from the sister school, persistent in her three year (!) crush. And of course tsundere Shin Woo, possibly with some internalized homophobia, and who we know, based on Shiwoon's hints and the laws of Romance Tropes, must have a crush on the new boy and can't handle it.

The taundere seme is a trope I love when it works well, and loathe when it's bad, and I think it's working here for me because Tae Kyung is such a weirdo. He's no blushing maiden uke, he's blunt and doesn't care that's he's awkward, and still not sure if he wants to even bother with other human beings. It makes Shin Woo's attraction to him more specific and real, and makes me curious to see how their dynamic develops.

So even though the character don't feel anchored to any reality outside of what we see on screen, in the small slice of a tv world they do exist in they seem complex and worth getting to know.

(They also intrigue me enough that part of me wants to see these same characters and conflicts, but framed in more gritty realism style, like that of Weak Hero Class One. I think there's enough there to make it work! But that's more about my personal taste than anything else.)

edit: not that Weak Hero Class One is exactly realistic. But it's a different kind of fairy tale atmosphere. One that sometimes gets called "gritty realism."

#light on me #gillianthecat liveblogs bl #kang yoo seok #gillianthecat reacts to bl #my ramblings #face filters #I know I've complained about them before but I don't know if I have a tag for it

Hiii I really love the way you write ^^ how about Yashiro, Mitsuba(alive), and Kou who forgot their umbrella when it starts to rain so their crush (heh) shares their umbrella with them?

(Take your time and have a nice day/night ^^)

aaaahhh im glad people enjoy my writing <33 and ty for requesting !

want to share ?

; yashiro :

yashiro wasn't expecting the weather to get this bad , she left home so fast that she forgot her umbrella .. she was ready to put her bag on her head and get home running , when a familiar voice called her name : it was you , the person who's she has a crush on since the beginning of school .. " yashiro ! Are you heading home ? " She couldn't help but to focus on how your voice sounds , it's almost angelic for her. " Ahh.. - yes ! But unfortunately i forgot my umbrella so i have to run now , hehe ... " she almost felt embarassed , " oh ? Well , if you forgot it , we can share if you want ! " Her eyes widened and her cheeks began to redden ; " i don't have nothing to do , so i can accompany you to your house , really " no. way. her crush wanted to share their umbrella with her !? Its like those romantic mangas where the protagonist shares the umbrella with the boy she likes and before they take separate ways they kiss !!?? WERE YOU GUYS GOING TO KISS !?!?!? Her mind was filled with such thoughts that she didn't noticed you getting closer to her , your umbrella covering both of your heads " A - AH , YES OF COURSE ! " she tried to hide her excitement " let's go then " " mhm ! " you could say that was the best walk under the rain she ever had , and little did she know that you also enjoied it , and it wouldn't be the last time for sure.

; kou :

teru needed to stay in school to finish some papers in the students council room , he tried to give his umbrella to kou but he refused saying he didn't need it , but after seeing how bad was the rain , he regretted his decision ; as he was turning back to get the umbrella from his brother , he saw you walking in his direction. You were a student from a different class , but every time kou saw you in the hallways he couldn't help but to stare at you in awe : everything about you was so beautiful , he had a little silly crush on you for some weeks now and teru couldn't help but notice it , saying that he should invite you over to their house so he can show off his cooking skill and impress you , but kou's too scared to even talk to you. He expected you to just keep walking away , not knowing him , but to his surprise .. " ah ! Minamoto kun , i didn't expect you to be still here " you - you know his name ?? He always thought he was invisible to you .. how ?? " uhm - you know me ?? I mean im happy you do but ! .. " he was screaming inside , he could've never guessed the person he likes actually knows his existence. " of course i know ! Your brother always finds a way to talk about you , and honestly with your cuteness it's hard to not notice you ! " not only you know him ... BUT YOU ALSO COMPLIMENTED HIM ??? this was the best day of his life. " a - ahh , thank you [name] ... anyways i was heading to the students council room to take the umbrella from teru - .. " " you don't have one with you ?? " you interrupted him " uh no .. " " if you want we can share mine , i heard that the rain could get worse , so teru or you will not get wet " his mind began to wonder to every possible scenarios with you two under your umbrella with his cheeks by now red , he didn't even noticed you getting closer to him " are you okay , kou kun ? " " AH YES " he was so funny while he was flustered that you couldn't help but laugh a bit " let's go then , shall we ? " during the walk you two continued the chit chats , leading to getting close to eachother and getting to know more of both of you.

; mitsuba ( alive ) :

he greeted goodbye to kou , yokoo and satou while searching for his umbrella , " damn it , i think i left it home ... ". He hated getting wet from the rain , so he tried to wait until it would calm down a bit , even if it didn't look like it would end up soon ; sighing , he lifted up his bag , but before he could move he noticed an umbrella moving upon his head , turning around , he saw you standing behind him with a smile on your face. You were one of the few people that actually considered him besides kou , yokoo and satou ... yall didn't talk very much , but you still try to talk to him , unlike the other students. He actually admired you distantly , even tho the others called his admiration a crush , something that he didn't want to admit , not even to himself. He was seated behind you , he was always looking at you : your hair looked so soft , he always wonders how does it feel to touch them ; besides the hair tho , he thinks you're smart and actually a good person , maybe even cute like him .. " mitsuba ! You're still here ? " mhm .. yes , i wanted to see if the rain could stop at some points , but it seems it isn't going to .. " " you don't have an umbrella ? " you questioned " can't you see , are you blind or something .. " you only giggled at that comment ; he didn't though your laugh could be this pretty ... " well if you want we can share mine ! " " mhm ... it means i will honour you with my lovely presence , but just this time , and don't think about doing anything perverted to me ! " his ego inside was literally exploding ... " don't worry , i wont ! ". Even the remarks mitsuba made towards you , you had fun , and you wish to spend more times like this even in school , little do you know he's going to tell and flex about this to his friends.

dgm 249 spoilers, thoughts as i'm reading

(im using a french translation as of now)

-One Shot Kill on the first page

"After having been with his friends only for a moment while eating at his heart's content, he felt a little bit of happiness" fucking crying in the club

-Johnny still MVP

-Tiedoll has patrons??? he has a luxury mansion somewhere because he has patrons????? wow talk about the dream life. -Allen: you have patrons? woah just like Cross's mistresses Tiedoll: EX-FUCKING-CUSE ME. what an exchange, i wanted to make a joke about tiedoll being a boytoy and i held back and for what? for Allen to walk into this one on his own???

-BABIESST BOYYYYY

-serving cunt.

-Oh Allen actually shared SOME of what happened with Nea with the gang???? actual growth oh my god he's aCTUALLY trying not to shoulder everything on his own for once. even if he didn't share everything, that's already progress

-secret library? secret library time? like archivist time? like bookm- 👀 -A DEADLY LIBRARY???? next arc made for me--

-"Just show them Timcanpy as a proof that you're trustworthy" OUTCH?????????

-Johnny: "i don't know if we should go there. It seems dangerous..." Kanda: "don't worry. everywhere you'll go with the beansprout will be dangerous anyway." Johnny: ". Fair but outch??" this is so funny to me please. Kanda really was just "why would you worry about a deadly library's danger when just being with Allen is danger enough"

-THIS PANEL RULES forget what's written i'm still in denial about Nea taking over

-oghhh pretty

-love that Kanda can't get along with anyone, go bitch give us nothing

-OGHH PRETTY

-AAAAH BABY

-Allen realizing and understanding than Cross and Tim both raised him to be a vessel to disappear one day, but still being unable to hate them, instead loving them so dearly for having been by his side. that's making me cry.

"we'll always be friends. whatever happen, we will go together, Tim" fucking crying in the club

-NOOO IM NOT READY TO SEE KANDA AND TIEDOLL LEAVE :(((

-JOHNNY BEST BOY and one of the only 3 people Kanda might allow to do something like this to start with

-remember when Hoshino was like "oooh drawing Kanda is difficult because it's difficult drawing beautiful people"? how am i to deal when he's so pretty.

-Kanda Tsundere Moment (also: the whole manga)

BITES FIST BITES FIST BITES FIST???

Allen believes he's not going to make it out from this journey, that once he will learn the truth he might not be able to remain himself, to remain "Allen", regardless of if Nea take over, so he tells Kanda farewell, thanking him for the journey so far, but it's so obvious they all believe it will be the end of "Allen" as we know him

it fucking guts me. god.

-most frightening panel wtf

aand that's the end for now. a transitional chapter in between two arcs but a really good one. The separation between Kanda and Allen is really emotional.

and now, this mysterious library is on the horizon. Allen's identity is at stake. and this mysterious smiling individual (that shouldn't be Apo since he's been taken by the Noah, so maybe whoever the Librarian is and... this is a bad sign.)

and now. we wait.

i'm super hyped for the mysterious library though. Genuinely can't wait to see where it's going.

we're so back baby.

oh shit wait did you reblog the shipping bingo meme too? OKAY ghirahim/ganondorf, rauru/ganondorf, and ghirazant

Hhohohooo boy here we go

Ganondorf/Ghirahim

There are a lot of ways to take this ship- especially when you consider Ganondorf never canonically wields Ghirahim.

Does Ghirahim want him to prove himself? Does Ganondorf reject the will of Demise as much as he does the other gods, and as such refuses to take a sword thats "fated" to him? (This is whats so thematically yummy to me) Is he just physically unable to wield the demon blade since unlike the master sword, it wasnt reforged by human hands? (If you consider the hyrule historia manga canon)

Ghirahim just in general is SO codependent and I doubt understands healthy boundaries. Ganondorf has a tendency to neglect or outright betray those that serve him. So... not unlike GhiraDemi, really. Huge potential for disaster, but also the traits do make them very compatible in a bad way. And I LOVE that.

Also theyre fucking the same guy cause i was a Team Villain shipper and GanGhiraZant was great.

Rauru/Ganondorf

Two kings with basically the same ambition but one tries to achieve it in the "nice" way and one wears his brutality on his shoulder. They carry the most divorced energy ever.

But also. The POWER DYNAMIC. Rauru being so pleased to see this other king surrender his pride to him, knowing that was the last thing Ganondorf ever wanted to do. Him using every opportunity to test this submission, enjoying the thrill of not knowing if Ganondorf is going to snap in that moment, or keep up his act of playing nice. Rauru being the most manipulative bitch ever and Gan just seething as he tolerates it.

And, of course, we all know how it ends. Rauru holding back the very monster he helped create, and leaving behind the kingdom he had worked so hard to conquer build.

Also the ancient heros aspect was totally their kid that Gan lost custody of.

Ghiarhim/Zant

I can see the potential in this ship and its appeal- but im sad to say I never really got into it outside of GanGhiraZant. At least not the same way a lot of people did. It is a fantastic ship though, so I'm still going to gush about it.

Them bonding over being used by their masters, them both being extremely unhinged, violent, and creepy bastards that enjoy causing pain and strife to those they deem beneath them. I can see Zant attempting to use Ghirahim as well- feeling entitled to the blade as a king himself- and getting extremely frustrated that he can't wield it.

I do see their ties to Ganondorf as a pretty integral part of their dynamic- theyre codependent for different reasons, but it ultimately shows the same. They both can appear calm and collected, but absolutely lose it once things dont go their way. I can see them getting competitive, fighting, possibly even hatefucking... and slowly but surely falling for each other as time goes on.

Its the sort of relationship that has to build slowly, but retain their characterization. If one or both of them is too sweet then it's just not going to hit the same. I suppose a lot of fanworks don't fit my rigid interpretation of the two, and that's on me.

#Ship bingo meme #ganondorf/ghirahim #rauru/ganondorf #Ghirahim/Zant #i feel like im swinging a bat at a wasps nest for my take on ghirazant tbh but i stand by it

HAM DAN-I! YUU

(i wrote this in like one go so forgive the shitty quality lmao)

Imagine if yuu is someone in our world who read dozens of cringe reverse harem novels/mangas and played countless school-based otome games.

Meaning, if they suddenly woke up in a school filled with strong pretty boys; they knows what's up.

*realizes that they've been isekaid into a magical school with otherworldly hot students, and they're the only magicless student here. they're the MC*

Yuu: ......wait.....HELL NO I'VE SEEN THIS DAMN PLOT MULTIPLE TIMES

They probably saw how Ace treated them and immediately thought he's the bad boy type who bullied the MC at first but softened and sometimes actually become a tolerance guy over time.

Yuu: *Cringe badboy male lead flashbacks* we're leaving...Now

Grim: what?! You can't just let this mop head insult us like that!

Yuu: I've seen er- met this type of weirdos a few times in my life and i rather not associate myself with them...or any student in this school in general.

They still ended up charring the queen of hearts statue and destroying the chandelier that day lmao.

They don't want to interact with anyone other than Grim and the Ghosts their first day as janitors in fear of creating a domino effect and getting themselves bounded by whatever plot this world has, making it impossible for them to return home.

Yuu immediately contradicted herself by becoming friends with the Adeuce combo since their life threatening encounter with the blot monster in the mines lol. (Of course there's gonna be some almost death situations caused by the universe to force them to bond with the others)

OMG you know that scene when Dan-i called Ruda a monster in hopes of pushing him away 💀💀

That, but with Mallues

"i..i shouldn't tell you my name. For you may finally see me as a monster like others d-"

"yeah, you do look like a monster"

"...pardon?"

"but just a normal looking monster though, not the strange scary ones you see on the TV and you look actually look kinda cool for a monster"

"..."

Yuu in her mind: I called you a monster right? Fucking glare at me like im the filthiest dirt in this planet and never want to see me face ever again.

"pfft, how amusing"

"yeah tha- WAIT WHAT"

"this is the first time someone directly called me a monster right at my face"

Yuu in her mind: FUCK! ABORT! ABORT!

"ahahaha is that so? Oh gosh would you look at the time gotta go haha..."

— dear diary...: five.

back to the beginning (masterlist) / four. / a sweet intermission.

earlier a/n than normal: i was not lying when i said this one was long.

♥*♡∞:｡.｡ to michael wheeler,

almost three years. i haven’t written one of these hellish letters in almost three years and I thought I could go my whole life without making another one. and then, of course, you ruined it, like you do with everything else.

sorry.

im just — ugh! i just feel so stupid because it’s always been you. it’s always been you, and i feel like a fucking idiot, because I never realized it.

quite frankly i’m a little bit pissed, because of all people, why you? you’re my best friend and quite possibly the bane of my entire existence, so why you? is this like a gotcha moment from god where i have to be miserable my entire life?

i hate you, michael wheeler. i hate you and your big hands and your dumb doe eyes and those freckles i always try counting when we’re alone in your room. i hate your affinity for manga and i hate how your hair looks so cute and shaggy when you’re right out of the shower. i hate how you’re so caring and you throw rocks at my window and sneak in to bring me snacks when i’m sad.

you've been one of the only constants in my life. ever since i yelled at your bullies for you in first grade, you've been my best friend. i just never considered you'd be more -- okay, that's a lie, in the back of my head i always have. sometimes when i stroke your cheeks or fiddle with your fingers when i'm nervous i think about what it'd be like to be able to do this as a girlfriend, not just a friend. it's been happening more lately and it's annoying. truthfully, i think it's been building ever since you and el broke up sophomore year.

it hit me the other night in your room. you told me some stupid girl at a frat party was trying to get your number because she saw you playing guitar and i got. angry. like, really angry, and you were confused as to why i got so quiet. you looked at me and held me close and told me that no matter who else came into your life i'd always be your number one girl. if i'm your number one girl, why don't you prove it?

it's just -- why didn't we ever notice before? i think we could have saved ourselves a lot of...whatever the fuck this is. i thought we'd maybe pick things up when you kissed me when we were twelve. all because you wanted to know what the fuck cotton candy chapstick tasted like. did you know that was my first kiss? i knew it was yours, and i thought that was special. i only ever wanted that to be with you.

but then el came into the picture, and you were gone. i felt like i never really had you. like i wasn't your number one girl anymore but you'd always be my number one boy.

i'm sorry i got so bitter those years. i'm sorry i put you through so much shit and made you pick me up when i was drunk at parties i shouldn't have been at and then yelled at you for coming to my aid. i'm sorry i drifted away and i'm sorry that i looked for you in everyone else. thanks for not leaving me and still loving me. i wish it was in the way i needed you to.

you make my heart ache. i thought max would be the one to fuck me all up inside, but god, you take the fucking cake, mikey. it feels like it's physically breaking every time i see you and i know you know it because you keep coming to my house and asking my parents if i'm okay because i haven't been coming over. every time i see your stupid impala in my drive way i want to shrivel up and die because this is the most inconvenient thing possible.

i'm leaving in three months for college. you're staying here because for some reason you can't let go of this stupid town and i'm leaving because every time i'm here i feel like i'm being smothered. i want to tell you all of this really bad but i think this is going to do more harm than good for us.

you make me want to be selfish. i think we'd be good together. i think you think we would, too. the way you look at me absolutely isn't normal. but maybe it's wishful thinking. i'm laughing at myself right now because never ever have i wanted someone in these letters to see them. but with you i have a bit of hope.

whatever. i need to take a deep breath and suck it the fuck up because i have to go babysit holly in two hours. the page is blurry and i'm crying too much. i hope you're not home.

wooo. senior year. i fucking hate it here.

a/n: and she is done! i don't know completely how i like this but i'm going to write a wrap up ending w reader and mike anyway so it's fine! as always i hoped u liked it pls let me know if u did <3 for reference y/n is eighteen in this! this also could've been longer but my writer's block is kicking my ass LMAOOO anyway <3 here u go

Oyasumi Punpun: a Rant

Oyasumi Punpun is like the Elliot Rodger manifesto for weeaboos. Boy that thinks he's the only person that's had anything bad happen to him gets raped and beaten, goes around raping and beating and murdering women. And it's all justified because of the horrible life he led. If you read any of Inio Asano's other mangas you can tell this is not a flaw or an oversight in Punpun's writing- Asano is a bitter misogynist and it shows in everything he writes. Bullies, abusive mothers, are all bitchy, unlovable hags. The only good women in the world of his manga are underage prepubescent girls.

Throughout Downfall, Goodnight Punpun, Dead Dead Demon's DEDEDEDEstruction (yes i read all of those. i wanted to give him a chance so bad.) women are always positioned as mindless foils to the protagonist. women that crave sex are disgusting whores. prostitutes are ugly, but the protagonist still sleeps with them. Fat women are disgusting. Mean women are ugly caricatured beasts, and kind women are perfectly molded, underage girls. Characters that proudly self-identify as pedophiles (Punpun's uncle, the otaku in DEDEDEDEstruction) are positioned as the rationalists, the Reddit Atheists, the ones too smart for the idiocy of the normies. The breath of "reason" in an insane world. The most obvious example of this isn't even in Oyasumi Punpun with the pedo uncle;

it's in DOWNFALL, which is about an 'intellectual' manga artist that hates the braindead 'normies' that like his manga. he only makes it for bottom feeders like them. he's above those human scum. The self insert protagonist rapes a woman too because she pissed him off. That's life! C'est la Vie! Men just do that kind of thing sometimes!

I am fucking sick of indie scenes treating punpun like the most deep, meaningful manga ever and jacking off about how smart they are for "understanding" it. what is there to understand? asano themself said punpun isn't supposed to have a coherent plot or meaning, that it's just supposed to be nonsense because real life murders are nonsense. it's just an excuse to write a sloppy, disheveled story, with little care put into the world that the protagonist inhabits.

this isnt very organized. im just full of hate for inio asano, and i cannot believe this bilge is touted as some of the most 'intellectual' manga of our time.

here's some quotes from an interview about punpun

and here's an incident where a teenager killed a young girl and wrote punpun quotes all over the wall at the site. **AT NO POINT AM I IMPLYING DIRECT CORRELATION OF A HORRIFIC CRIME AND A FICTIONAL COMIC. You've seen that kind of thinking with, say, the boy that killed himself after playing Doki Doki Literature club- it's more likely someone willing to do that was drawn to media that discussed those themes rather than yknow, being directly inspired

..However, it is still interesting to note similarities in ideology/motive. In the same way the religious beliefs of killers often come into discussion (ie the Dena Schlosser murders- how did the ideology/community she was surrounded by influence her already declining mental state? Noone would argue christianity itself caused the murders.) , I think it's interesting to note Punpun's influence on the killer. ***I AM NOT SAYING PUNPUN WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MURDER. the person involved in the killing was already suicidal and mentally ill, thus they probably gravitated towards manga with those themes.

but if the manga influenced his actions that much, I think it's interesting to look into the ideology of the manga itself and what ideals it promotes. ***I AM NOT FUCKING SAYING PUNPUN CAUSED THE MURDER BEFORE I GET ANY COMMENTS ALONG THOSE LINES

note to self if i clean this up; make it more structured with my gripes about his manga; ie separate sections for misogynistic depictions of women, why i dont think the nihilism works, and bad writing with clear favoritism for certain characters and author self inserts (Platinum End also does this!)

Hi, Im wondering if its true that shonen jump will get in trouble with their government if they make it canon? How does the jp audience feel about this whole bakudeku vs izuocha war? Just asking out of curiosity.

So to answer your ask properly I need to explain a little about the censoring of gay representation in japan. I already know, a lot of people will not like what I will write now, so let me tell you I did my research about this topic already a 3-4 years ago and talked with japanese people living in japan, non japanese people, japanese bkdk shippers, non shippers and in generell with people who know a lot about this kind of stuff. And pretty much all of them told me the very same thing: that at least 50 more years need to pass till weekly shonen jump will allow an openly gay mc in their magazine.

In japan the gay censoring is VERY strict. Its not as bad as in many other countrys, but its still not good. Not even gay marriage is allowed and if a gay couple wants to live together, one of them needs to ADOPT the other and gay people also need to fear the possebility that their familys will bann them for their sexuality out of shame - and bringing shame to the family will literally destroy your life. In media gay representation is very strictly handled and watched over by the japanese government. Homosexuality is still seen as something "unpure". Something that is not quite normal. It has become better over the years, but in generell their view still sucks.

Thats why children till a certain age are not allowed to come in contact with everything that is or seems "gay". They want their children to stay "pure". Japan also has a problem with their birthrate, because more and more woman focus on their carriers and if anything they only want one child instead of 3, how it was once the norm. So they want to make sure that at least this children "stay streight" so they will give birth to their own children one day. By their logic: less gay people means more birth of children. Japan may be a very modern country, but when it comes to this topic they are certainly not. A lot of younger people want things to change, but still not much has changed for the better.

The anime and manga industry is one of the things japan makes the most money from, because of its popularity all around the world and because they want to support their artists and their art. But this industry is also very cruel and strict. There is a reason why so many mangakas get sick over the years and suffer from depressions and anime animators are terrible underpaid for all the work they do.

Like I already wrote the censorship of homosexuality in japanese media is very strict and mangakas, animators and puplishers have to go with the rules, otherwise they can lose their jobs or their storys will never see the light of day. Thats why mangas and animes are seperated into genres and age groups so younger children or teenagers dont see things they arent supposed to see till an certain age. Jump for example has a whole magazine series and all of them puplish mangas for a different reader group, age group and genre. For example jump+ is an online magazine, directed at adult female readers and allow gay main characters (blue flag comes to mind), because this online magazine is directed at woman who love gay romance. Other example is the magazine jump square directed to readers from 16 to 21. It also allows open gay representation. For example seraph: the sexuality of the mc is open for interpretation, but the mcs best friend is openly gay and both are attrackted to each other. Now we are comming to the weekly shonen jump magazine which mha is pulished in. This magazine is directed at young boys from the age of 9-13. Yes, a lot of older readers and woman read it too, but it doesnt change the fact that this magazine is directed at younger male readers. And like I wrote earlier, the gay censoring is so strict that children till a certain age are not allowed to come in contact with it. Thats the reason why till to this day, not one of weekly shonen jumps mangas has a confirmed and openly gay mc. Its simply not allowed, so to finally answer your question: yes! Shonen jump would get into trouple if they would allow a mangaka to make his mc gay. If a mangaka wants his mc to be gay, bi etc. his manga automatical would be puplished in one of the other magazines, like jump square, because its for older readers.

What weekly shonen jump allows are hints about homosexuality which would fly over the heads of younger readers and as long as its not the mc. And most of the time gay or trans representation is not portrayed in a positive light, but for comedic relief, the characters are unlikeable or have almost no screentime. Take mha for an example, magne and tiger are both trans. But magne was not only killed off very early in the story but also was a villain - one of the bad guys. Tiger is a hero, but has almost no screentime and doesnt talk much. Has no importance to the story. Toga was confirmted to be bi by hori, but not in the manga itself but in a interview. Togas sexuality would fly over younger childrends heads, because the manga only gives hints. Also just like magne toga is a villain - a girl who killed dotzens of people and loves to drink their blood. Not very good representation of bi people. Other example from bleach: there is an character named yumichika. His sexuality was never confirmed, but its pretty obvious that he is gay. In the beginning yumichka was a very unlikeable person and while he changed for the better, a lot of people still think his beauty fetish makes him very annoying. There are two trans characters (never openly confirmed by the author, but its pretty clear) named charlotte chulhorn who is a villain and a gag character and giselle also a villain who is pretty fucked up in the head. So you see the weekly shonen jump magazine doesnt really offer good representation of gay, bi or trans characters.

So, comming to an conclusion: if horikoshi or any other mangaka would want their mc to be gay, espicially openly gay and represent as a positiv thing, their storys would have been puplished in an other manga magazine and not weekly shonen jump, because the age group this magazine is directed at simply doesnt allow it. So yes, if weekly shonen jump would be a little more open they would get into trouple with the japanese government who watches their media very closely.

To answer your question about how the japanese readers think about the bkdk and izuocha war. Honestly I dont really know, all I know is that izuocha is not as hated as many non japanese bkdk shippers claim it is. It is the most popular hetero ship together with todomomo. Gay ships like bkdk, tododeku, kiribaku are so imcredible popular mainly because of female readers. Male readers dont really care about shipping, its more of an woman thing. But from what I have been told by both japanese bkdk fans and non shippers most of them are very well aware that no gay ship has any kind of chance to end up canon. Only the really hardcore fuyoshi fangirls dont want to accept it. To most japanese shippers its also not really a question about what will be canon and what not. They ship for fun. The japanese fandom takes this whole shipping thing by far not as serious as western countrys do.

At least I want to make clear, that nothing I wrote here is my personal opinion or taste when it comes to japans censoring. Its just from what I found out during my research about the topic. I would love to have more good gay, bi, trans, pan etc. representation in shonen jump, but I just see the things from a more realistic view. The only thing bkdk or shippers in generell can hope for is that all the characters stay single in the end, so hori would let it open for interpretation.

The Y-7 Psychopath - Cowardice or Humility

Don't know if anybody cares about some juvenile "media analysis" from me, but why not, especially on a idea I had in my mind, and finally think it is prudent to put it out there, to see how people feel about it.

So you know western cartoons? And Im not talking about "adult animated sitcoms" or the recent surge of "totally mature and bloody!!!" cartoons that in the end are the same juvenile superhero stuff lol just with exploding heads and awkward animated sex scenes lol.

Yeah, just the standard cartoons that people get really insecure about liking, and make video essays about how "actually it is a masterpiece of mature writting". But instead of me mocking this fact to try to hide my own anxiety over being somebody who makes a fanfic comic, lets go with this

So lets circle back to the title of this "essay" - and start with an example - Everybody loves Zuko from Avatar, I watched the show as a kid, you did, probably kids today do it when all their influencer idols force them too.

Perfect for exploring the point then: And that is the point, people claim how realistic and satisfieng Zuko's arc is, how the redemption is both earned and not without hurdles, not without fallbacks. So where is the issue?

Well I remember sometimes smugly thinking "Well what a coincidence that Zuko never actually on screen killed anyone so he never is really a bad guy...' And this I interpreted to be mostly the case of the rating - basically without the restriction the show would probably include Zuko killing what is at best combatants of the defending side or at worst even civilians. And this would probably kinda derail the arc or leave a bad taste in everybodys mouth...

But the question is left unanswered - is it at the end better, that Zuko gets redemeed in a way that is setup to leave out this elephant out of the room? Hell even I felt kinda weirded out about how nonchalant everyone was about the fact that Zuko hired an assassin, like it was kinda played off for laughs, but maybe that was to show "see we are redeeming him without writting out realistic evils like murder!" - still there is a difference between killing civilians and hiring some copyright free terminator.

So no answer? Well maybe lets look at the opposite case - anime, the cartoons that can kinda go away with showing unscreen murder and atrocities. And to bring it back, lets go with Soul Eater (and no manga spoiler this time cause Im generous and because this would open another can of worms, and I'll save that for the future)

Everybodys favorite charachter that gets reduced to one trait that ironically would be kinda problematic if one really was thinking about it in a certain way - Crona. Also know for killing people who were pointed out to be "not evil enough for it to be ok©®™"

So here we have this charachter, with a whole arc of being abused, having the famous trauma™, doing bad because of a parental figure and wanting to make that figure happy even if its in a twisted way, not getting what real love is...

Basically Im saying Zuko and Crona share a lot of simmilarities looked at this surface level. But only Crona has the problematic aspect of "mass murder". And even I kinda felt it being pushed under the rug no matter how I'll defend Crona from slander on the net while being sick both in body and soul lol.

But here is the thing - atleast I see Crona (atleast in the anime) as mostly some kind of child soldier - I dont think anybody thinks that some african boy that was forced at gunpoint to snort coke and kill his parents while being abused all his life, is "guilty" of the crimes in a way that an adult who does it for a less extreme reason.

Still, even if for me that is mostly justification enough (even if I kinda problematise the whole guilt thing in my comic), I still get it - even if explained it still leaves a bad aftertaste

Like even the most goodhearthed person would probably be weirded out if the person next to them would go "Thank God I was saved, cause till I was 14, I was forced to go from village to village and shoot everyone that moved!". One can say neither person is really at fault yet still it is a sticky topic.

And maybe thats where Im going with this - the problem isnt about depicting the redemption or whatever of killers, but if a story is mature and "deep" enough to handle it. So with my Avatar example I think that in a back handed way, it was good that Zuko wasnt a killer - becaue even if everybody loves the show (I mostly do to, shit was fun) - its kinda clear that in the end the writting and themes etc were on a level of a kid show - enough for kids, but not complex enough to actually deal with some things that other works could (and not even talking about something being grimdark or complex, cause nah everybody hates DBZ but that shit was so.good everybody felt Vegeta turning good and dont make essays about how bad that was, anyways that is why DBZ is too complicated for most western fans💅💅💅 ((but thats a topic for another day))

So to come back to the Crona question - was Soul Eater really prepared to deal with the topic of mass killing inocent people (mostly)? Especially when Ohkubo says himself that it was "a show where death isnt taken seriously"?

Cause I think, with Cronas struggle being mostly about abuse, doing bad things because of parental abandonment, fear etc, was it really necessary to add this baggage? Especially with a show that has that many visual metaphors?

And one example that I would use kinda proves my point and maybe implys that Ohkubo also kinda started backpedalling - the second time we see Crona, there are no wannabe gangsters, just souls of already killed people by another kishinegg which is just a wacky bad guy who isnt even really alive himself (and eve. comically survives)

Basically what I'm entertaining, is if wouldnt have been better to have Crona absorb souls that other Kishinseggs had collected, in this way preserving that they do something wrong (but reversible as later shown with the confiscation) yet never having to go to the extreme of "haha check out this wacky outfit our new friend Crona is wearing! Also twenty people were murdered in that church, shit was crazy"

But am I really basically saying 4kids Crona is the answer. Putting it this way lol, I dunno, I mean I like the pirate rap, but just sanitising everything seems off to me to. So yeah I dont even know.

And that is what leaves this whole question like the socratic dialogs, without any real answer with more confusion than before. But maybe it could "start a discussion" or whatever. But in case it was just a waste of time, without going anywhere:

Yeah... Sorry

Also quick manga spoilers as a bonus

This would aslo avoid making Cronas fate feel so cope-outish, cause that seemed to be the real reason - Ohkubo neither felt comfortable ignoring the whole message of overcoming fear and connecting no matter what, while also just saying that killing more people in Ukraine than in the last 2 years was just a big uppsie - hence the paradox of the non ending "I dont want to hurt. anybody, but actually I am evil.and care for Maka only or maybe Im just guiltu or maybe not and Im crazy xddd"

what shoujo would you recommend to folks just in general? like your favorites or top 5

my top five and what i'd recommend are probably two different things because i love boys over flowers and i can't tell people to read it without six hundred asterisks because nineties toxic ML

I can do that with itakiss way more easily though i only need one sentence to defend my position on why it's the best romance ever and it's that nobody understands irie the way i do

anyways im more into romance and magical girls (duh), so anything i like will be romance centered lmao...

my faves are itazura na kiss, boys over flowers, lovely complex, and obligatory tokyo mew mew is my childhood and what shaped me as a person. i loved karekano/his and her circumstances but everything i listed i finished the manga too except this, i watched the anime, which apparently stopped being good after anno left and that's where i stopped. and haven't finished the manga.

lovely complex is a riot through and through everyone should actually read it it's funny. and i mean read it. because the anime is fun too and the ops go hard but there's a lot that wasn't adapted that i really loved in the manga. esp after the two start dating.

if you actuallt really the whole beauty and beast terrible bad boy redeemed thing and can put up with just trash guys and drama and shit then yeah, i liek boys over flowers a lot because tsukushi is that bitch and we will never be her, she's the coolest lead ever. he falls for her because she kicked him in the face. she's so cool.

i honestly can't recommend the tokyo mew mew manga over the original anime i think it's just way better paced, but it's worth it if you loved tokyo mew mew or tmmn, or if you like magical girls in general. a classic.

liam is just naoki irie from itakiss in another font moving on.

karekano is like insanely good and i love yukino a lot. the anime is on youtube also. but again i heard the anime stops being good after anno leaves.

Pretear has a manga. i prefer the anime. i love pretear id put it under my faves too but just the anime didn't care for the manga as much. most of my favorite mg stuff i prefer the anime tbh, i love mermaid melody but you gotta have the music. it needs music. u gotta watch the show. oh but i remember liking ultra maniacs manga more than the anime.

peach girl is a good show if you love drama and mess and like being pissed off 24/7. you will feel so violent all the time because of THIS FUCKING BITCH.

also didn't finish it so it's not on the list of my Faves bc like i guess that can change lol. but i still looovfeee it:

obligatory pochamani post

#are you telling me char broiled this burger?#asks #anonymous
