"One Can Only Postpone the Moment of Parting." I'm Destiny, 24...and since there's no room to put stuff, ask me something if you're curious for more info. My hobbies include reading and writing fiction, hanging out with my 3 dogs, and studying Japanese history and culture. I am an obsessive fan of Samurai Champloo and the #1 provider of evidence as to why Mugen and Fuu is a subtle canon romance on the internet (yay me...) There are links up top.

Hey, don’t want to pressure, but when are you planning on releasing the update for FTFESWY?
Please excuse the ridiculously late reply!
Chapter 51 Lingering Lamentations of Finding the Four-Eyed Samurai...WITH YOU?! has just been updated on Fanfiction.net today! (Dec 11th, 2022)
However, I noticed that I did not get a notification email for the update, nor did some of my readers. Apparently, Fanfiction.net has a new service that now requires readers to click the tab on their profile to "allow notifications." If you have been following this story but did not get a new email, please go into your account and reallow notifications! My updates can be pretty sparse, so it really pains me to know that most of my followers now have no idea I've updated, and will be updating again in a few weeks, because of this stupid thing they've changed.
Anyway, this chapter is very short by comparison to my others, only around 10,000 words. This is because the next chapter that goes in-depth into Fuu's childhood spans a whopping 30,000 words now, just as Chapter 49 From Hell to Heaven did for Mugen's past. Please look forward to it!
#fuugen#samurai champloo#mugen and fuu#yup im still working on this monstrosity and have 20 chapters to rewrite and 10 more new ones to write too#fanfiction

the sheer offensiveness of rereading something you wrote, discovering that, hey, it’s actually pretty good, and then reaching the end, wherein you realize that if you want more you actually have to write it

Was thinking about Samurai Champloo and particularly how character development is shown so subtly in small significant moments. At first you dont notice how the characters have changed because their outer manerisms and physical appearances remain the same but.
Jin, for the first time in his life, has people who he calls friends and trusts to watch his back and who he actually cares about without it being his duty.
Mugen had to survive a harsh life filled with crime, betrayed by people he had called friends, which made him selfish and a rogue. The only thing he has to help him survive is his sword and he would use it on anyone if it would get him out of a tough situation. AND by the end, he gives up his sword to save someone he cares about, knowing he could never get out of this one alive, which is so sognificant for Mugen because his whole deal is that he values his survival and his life. Honestly it's all saving yourself through saving another. I find it similar in a way to Jaime returning for Brienne, maybe even Theon helping Jeyne knowing it could cost his life because he believes its his last chance to save the person he was, not to save his life. A different thing with Mugen is, we dont know if he cares about his redemption, maybe he doesnt even think he needs to change something about himself, we dont get to see inside his head but its still so significant how he acts so selfless in that moment. (Actually the scene before that, when he gives up the chance to fight a strong opponent to save Fuu is important too becasue we also know how much he loves fighting against skilled fighters.) -And Jin, willing to fight the opponent himself so that Mugen can save Fuu(because fuu believes mugen doesnt care about her), not just because he wants to fight the guy too.-
Fuu thinking her whole life her father abandoned her, gets hurt when Mugen and Jin argue and leave her in the middle of the road even though they supposedly dont have any personal attachments, and she is so afraid for their trip to be over, meaning they will leave her once again and this brief friendship coming to an end, so she leaves them herself because its better than being abandoned.
Then. Mugen returns for her after she gets captured (actually this happens often during the series but the final one is the most important because it is solely to save her, not because he wants to fight some guys and have a fun time. and he throws his sword away!! saying let her go in exchange of my only possession and self defense) , when she is so sure he wouldnt.
Then. she learns her father abandoned her to save her and her mom's life.
Jin confronts the shogunate guy and finally faces his past trauma, confirming they're the corrupt ones, not him for killing his master, and it doesnt really matter anymore because he has experienced more important things and saw there are better things to life than his duty to a cold and unloving masters. -Again, this theme comes up in asoiaf in different characters in different ways.-
Jin also returns for his friends by the excuse of "fighting mugen as they promised" but they both know they dont have the heart to kill each other.
Mugen faces death and comes out alive once again, Jin faces his past and comes out alive once again and Fuu faces her father and the entire purpose for her trip and comes out knowing her father cared about her. And she has people who care about her now.
They meet again and acknowledge what they mean to each other and this time, willingly part ways, going onto different directions, knowing they can survive and "fate loves throwing them into each other's ways".
Ok i didnt mean for this to get so long jm just musing on them and i probably have said some of these before too but it amazes me everytime how seemingly such a goofy show has such depth in only 26 epiosodes..

Noren are ubiquitous throughout Japan and are typically found hanging outside entrances to hot-spring spas, traditional houses and restaurants. Noren play the role of signboards or flags and are an example of traditional culture preserved in modern life. There is a common saying that goes, “if the noren is dirty, the shop is in good business.” The reason is that a busy shop will have many customers touching the noren, thus making it dirty.

The unsung hero of Episode 11. Jin would have never gotten Shino out of the brothel if he didn't have the money to buy her...which was given to him by Mugen...which Mugen won by betting on Rodriguez. So yeah, FUCKING HORNS UP FOR RODRIGUEZ.
horns up for Rodriguez
