15!

Send a number for question that muse will answer about mun!15. Fandoms? (and muses opinion about it)

(Oh boy…heads up this is a long post!)

“Uhh…you mean aside from Dragonball Z? I’ve mentioned my thoughts about that Tenchi Muyo! series in the past.” He nervously sweats, knowing that Raxceni-Mun’s into a lot of fandoms, but he doesn’t really know what they are. Nappa’s not very good at remembering the names of things that aren’t important to him.

“Hold on!” The Saiyan leaves to enter what was formerly known as District 9 a.k.a Raxceni’s room. He knows whatever fandom stuff his Mun Lady’s into would be in there. 

Boy there is a lot of stuff in there…are fabric roses, skeletons, and a lazy egg Sanrio mascot part of a fandom???

“So there’s this big shrine for something called, The Ancient Magus’ Bride. I don’t know what the story is about, but there’s this guy with a dog skull and horns for a head with a human girl with red hair.” He takes one of the manga off the shelf and reads a little of it. “Oh this is a fantasy manga set in England. Bone-head’s her magic mentor. That’s neat. I think I remember her saying something about this getting a TV series. There’s gonna be a premiere showing the first three episodes in select theaters. She’s going to one of those showings next week.” 

Nappa puts the book back. “Okay and next to that is a bunch of books and DVDs that say Revolutionary Girl Utena on them. The girl with pink hair is dressed like a prince and waves a sword around. I like the look in her eyes. She’s got the spirit of a warrior, and I can tell I’d like her personality if I watched this show. Or read these comics.”

“There’s a lot of video games here. Darkstalkers has its own shelf. It’s a fighting game about monsters. I’d rather fight these characters in person instead of pressing buttons on a controller. The characters are silly, but deadly. There’s a game sereis called Silent Hill about a haunted town full of monsters. That also makes me wanna fight the monsters.The haunted town makes monsters based off your fears and your mental state of mind. So I wonder what my monsters in that town would look like? Ib’s a game about a girl trapped in a museum where the art comes to life as monsters. I’ve heard her listen to the music, and some of it is really nice. Mun Lady looks like she’s building a mini shrine for that series in here too. It’s got a unique Tim Burton kind of art style that Mun Lady likes. There’s this other game called Okage: Shadow King. She has some fanart and two copies of this game. So she must really like it. I think she was trying to write a sequel story for that once? It’s a goofy game about a boy who helps this shadow lord guy named Stan get his powers back from fake Evil Kings. It’s another game with nice music, a woman who dresses similarly to Utena and fights with a sword. It also has a Tim Burton art style.”

“The only reason I know what Tim Burton art looks like is because she also is into this thing called The Nightmare Before Christmas. Mun Lady’s heavily influenced by that guy’s older work. She also realized the other day how much a short OVA and manga series called Dragon Half influenced her too. The voice acting isn’t fun to listen to, but it was a funny series. Mun Lady learned about, and became obsessed with continuity because of a joke about it in the second episode.”

The more he looks around the bedroom the more odd things he sees. A one-eyed skeleton knight named Sir Daniel Fortesque from MediEvil. “That guy needs to find the dragon balls and wish for a better looking face!” 

A show about alien rock people. Steven Universe? “More strong women fighting and looking after a kid with chosen one powers. Wait…that sounds similar to other things she likes. I know the show references Dragonball Z too. That Jasper’s practically a female fusion of me and Raditz.” 

Next to that stuff is something else that catches his attention. “There’s a raccoon hugging a tree with a face, and the tree's hugging him back?! What’d that pin say? Guardians of the Galaxy? Feh, where were these guys when Frieza had us purging dozens of planets huh? THEY’RE NOT MY GALAXY’S GUARDIANS! THAT’S FOR SURE! HA HA HA HA!”

“Mun Lady likes a lot of monsters and aliens. Guess that’s why she likes me so much, huh?” He chuckles softly. “Oh! Kill la Kill was a cool show! How can you not like an action show with strong women fighting in skimpy outfits? That Gamagori guy Mun Lady likes sounds familiar. Heh, it’s because we have the same voice actor in Japanese! He’s also a big muscular guy who’s loyal and endearing just like me! The Lady Satsuki he serves is quite impressive to both me and Mun Lady for that strong, commanding personality of hers. She likes to pair up that girl Mako with Gamagori, but I think Gamagori and Lady Satsuki are more suited for each other. I know she secretly likes them too!” 

The more he looks around the room, the more Nappa becomes aware of the fact that Raxceni-mun has a lot MORE fandoms that he’s only vaguely familiar with. While she’s not running out of fandoms, he’s running low on opinions about them. So Nappa starts to get cranky.

“How do you expect me to have an opinion on all the damn things she’s into?! I’m a busy dead guy! Here’s my opinion! Mun Lady likes too many things to talk about in a single post!! I haven’t even mentioned Fushigi Yuugi, Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt, SGT Frog…ugh! And that’s just anime! There’s more games, and comics, and regular TV shows! Game of Thrones is fun to watch, but that’s the last thing I’m familiar with!”

(Thank you, Nappa. I’m surprised you lasted this long. I think you can see why I can gab so much about fandom stuff on my personal blog. xD)
