ITS AS SHRIMPLE AS THAT (⸝⸝⸝╸w╺⸝⸝⸝)

[clownmoontoon]

I'm interested in watching Osomatsu-san, but I have a few questions, if that's ok. 1. Sub or dub? 2. How do I know who's who? I already know some of the easy ones, thanks to you. Thank you in advance! (P.s. Thanks for telling me about BNHA!)

ITS A REALLY GREAT ANIME AND IT HAS SOME OF THE BEST CHARACTER WRITING I HAVE EVER SEEN. IT IS ABSOLUTELY ONE OF MY TOP FAVE ANIMES EVER

HOWEVER

idk how old you are (or the age of anyone possibly reading this) so i feel i should say Osomatsu-san has a lot of mature themes and is CLEARLY meant for a more mature audience of the adult/college age/MAYBE later teen variety

all the main and most important side characters in the show are at least in their 20′s.

im not recommending this show to kids is what im saying haha

its nowhere near as wholesome as hero aca

ANYWAY ONTO YOUR QUESTIONS

1. Sub or Dub?

as of right now there is no dub Viz Media, who most recently did the redub of sailor moon (AND ITS FANTASTIC BTW SO IT GIVES ME HIGH HOPES FOR MATSUS), had sent out a tweet saying that the dub was going to be released some time in October of this year but …nothing happened?? my buddy @arr-jim-lad even contacted them about it, and they responded that there were no updates to mention. ://///SO right now sub is all we got haha

ITS REALLY GOOD THO SO ITS NOT LIKE A NEGATIVE OR ANYTHING BC THESE VOICE ACTORS ARE AMAZINGdef my fave voice actors of any sub ive watched (and ive watched quite a few)

2. How do I know who’s who? I already know some of the easy ones, thanks to you.

one of my fave aspects of this show is that after a few eps, despite them all having the same face, it becomes VERY EASY to tell them apart haha this is part of why the character writing is so strong imo!

but here’s a few tips and tricks to look for just in case you cant tell right away!

🌈COLORS!!!🌈

❤️Osomatsu -  the eldest of the sextuplets and the show’s namesake - RED

💙Karamatsu - 2nd eldest - BLUE

💚Choromatsu - 3rd eldest - GREEN

💜Ichimatsu - 4th brother - PURPLE

💛Jyushimatsu - 5th brother - YELLOW

💖Todomatsu - 6th and youngest brother - PINK

the easiest thing to get the hang of first when it comes to noticing the matsus is def their designated colors! Even when theyre not in their trademark hoodies they can usually be seen wearing their colors somewhere on themselves so if you cant tell who’s who right away LOOK FOR THE COLORS!!

if theyre all wearing matching outfits you can look at their hair shinies bc they’ll usually be their color when nothing else is! (tho those are a bit more subtle in coloring bc ..well..shinies haha)

😄EXPRESSIONS and QUIRKS😎

each of the bros has a standard neutral expression, and some of them have fun quirks that make it very easy to tell who’s who! lets start backwards this time \(ouo)/ (mostly bc from the start the youngest bros are def easiest to recognize…besides karamatsu ofc)

this got quite long so check under the cut for all the bro details and fun collages i made for each bro bc i love this show too much! \(>u

💖Todomatsu (pinky boi)💖

he’s the designated “cute” boy, and the worst/best self-centered millennial stereotype. actually a total mean girl in disguise, and (according to his bros) a “vile monster”. i love him and he’s a cute demon. not the worst bro but pretty darn close.

neutral expression: :3voice: highest pitch of the bros and often whiny quirks: - can usually be seen w his smartphone - acts the most feminine (covers his chest if naked or topless)- always has eye shinies - two hairs sticking out on the top of his head - calls all his bros “niisan” since he’s the youngest

next up MY BOOOYYYYY

💛Jyushimatsu (YELLOW SUNSHINE LIGHT OF MY LIFE)💛

the hyper-active, forever smiling, incredibly powerful, baseball boy! if something weird and crazy is going on jyushimatsu is either directly involved or about to be. he’s always laughing, smiling and making weird jokes/noises. a very sweet boy who is entirely too powerful. He often dresses as animals, and is used as an “attack dog” to torture whichever brother he’s commanded to (usually oso). A very unpredictable boy to say the least. Its hard to imagine an ooc version of him bc there isnt much he would not do or say.HE IS MY FAVE BEST SUNSHINE BOY

neutral expression: 8Dvoice: lowest pitch of the bros but also the loudest, often making weird/nonsensical sounds/noises such as: BBBBOEHBA!! 8Dquirks: - often goes cross eyed - is incredibly strong, can lift and throw his adult brothers like nbd - never has eye shinies in the anime unless he’s about to cry - wears shorts when everyone else is wearing pants, also some times wears a traffic cone on his head- wiggly arms and sleeves too long (even when its not the hoodie, usually his sleeves are always too long haha)- only one hair sticking out on the top of his head

((MANY THANKS TO @arr-jim-lad​ FOR THE TILTED PIC IDEA ITS ADORABLE))

next up my second fave, NEKOMATSU

💜Ichimatsu (purple cat man)💜

the designated darkmatsu, ichi is the slow moving, constantly slouching, quietest boy who thinks cats are way better than people. the least motivated matsu, even going out to do fun things (like drinking or gambling) is some times too much trouble. for him a good time is laying on the floor and thinking about death (and also cats). a fan of torture, if the situation calls for causing trauma he’s suddenly very talkative and plays w his voice a lot. he is the second brother (after my boy jyushi) that is often called upon when one of the other brothers (or anyone) needs to be tortured. i love this boy and he is good to my fave boy god bless suujimatsu

neutral expression: B(voice: usually very low, slow and monotone quirks: - eyes always half lidded, no shinies - always slouched- messy hair (some times w cat ears)- only bro to wear track pants (w the line on the side)- has a diff cat in his lap almost every ep, but does not actually own one- two hairs sticking out on the top of his head

up next everyone’s fave otaku,

💚Choromatsu (green frog weeb man)💚

the resident brother mom and a total idol otaku, choromatsu isnt concerned w much else besides his idol obsession and proving he’s way more responsible than his brothers. he often walks todomatsu to the bathroom at night and waits for him to finish since youngest bro is scared of the dark (reminder theyre both grown men in their 20′s). he thinks he’s better suited to be the oldest brother and leader rather than osomatsu and even points it out once, with agreements from both todomatsu and ichimatsu.if anything crazy happens choro is the first to scream about it not being ok. he’s got the strongest will of all the brothers and can never be persuaded to change his mind about a situation. he’s not a fighter at all and usually chooses to stay on the sidelines even if he agrees w whatever the bros are fighting about (killing god for instance).he’s under constant stress bc he’s pretending to do his best while his brothers are terrible i love him give this poor green man a vacation

neutral expression: :voice: higher pitched, not as high as todo but still higher among the bros, and usually using it to yell @ brosquirks: - smallest pupils, no shinies (in the anime)- usually has a worried expression- wears plaid a lot- is irritated almost all the time - wont look for a job bc he’s determined to be an idol manager- no hairs sticking out on top of his head

AND NEXT MY THIRD FAVE AND EASILY THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MATSU

💙 KARAMATSU 💙

LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL MAN, THIS PAINFUL ADONIS OF MATSUS!! IS THAT A GLITTER CROP TOP THAT DOESNT COVER THE CHEST?? IT SURE IS!! ARE THOSE JEAN BOOTY SHORTS?? YOURE DAMN RIGHT THEY ARE!!!

karamatsu is EASILY the most recognizable matsu. w those amazing eyebrows, constant use and abuse of anime eyes, wild variety of glittery, revealing, and leather clothing its no wonder he’s called painful oh my god i love this man DID I MENTION HE SPEAKS RANDOM ENGLISH FOR NO REASON AND ITS GREATalso he’s probably the most caring brother who genuinely wants his brothers to be happy and know theyre loved very much by him ;;

if you cant immediately spot this matsu i dont know what to say to you tbqh

neutral expression: >:Dvoice: he makes his voice deep to sound cool p much all the time but its actually higher pitched than it seems quirks: - wears sunglasses, skulls, a leather jacket, sparkly everything, and p much anything he thinks is “cool”- easily the most expressive matsu just look for those eyebrows haha- puts his finger under his chin a lot - “BURAZAHS” - "heh!”- two hairs sticking out on the top of his head

and now on to the final, the oldest, and arguably the worst matsu

💔Osomatsu💔

THERE HE IS!!!! THE TRASH KING BROTHER!!!!i kid, i kid sort ofimplying that the matsus are not all trash boys is just a joke tbqhfor me osomatsu was absolutely the hardest bro to recognize when i first watched the show, and i think the biggest tip i can give for him is just to look for the red boy scratching under his nose. also the boy who looks like he would buy and sell you. he’s a pretty brilliant con man and a good fighter too, but his laziness outweighs anything that he could possibly achieve in. he’s absolute trash but in a way still lovable?? OH ACTUALLY if youre familiar w the anime Lupin the Third just look for the brother that makes the most Lupin-esque faces he’s got that classic-anime-comedy-male-lead look more than any of the other bros so that might help you recognize him!

could literally be lupin’s little bro haha

neutral expression: its like a stretched version of this :3 w teeth showingvoice: higher pitched, he plays w his voice almost as much as jyushimatsu, very playful and teasing, hardly ever serious sounding quirks: - scratching under his noise- obsessed w money and women (and never has either)- the most addicted to gambling of all the bros (this is sounding less like quirks and more like serious problems omg), favors horse races and pachinko- the “leader”, usually the one telling the others what to do (even if they rarely listen)- calls no one “niisan” since he’s the oldest - two hairs sticking out on top of his head

WOW THIS CAME OUT MUCH LONGER THAN I MEANT IT TO!! if im not careful people might think i love these trash neets or smth oh no

but ye! i hope this helps! or was at least an entertaining read haha❤️💙💚💜💛💖

Alright kids

Its TIME we go to school cos a friendo of mine on tweeter a.k.a. @baku5ds wanted to know WHAT my plan for a 5th season of UtaPri would be...well First we have to look at the way UtaPri has been wrote so far.  Now if we looked at UtaPri in the form that its in and the way it was being wrote we would notice THIS! In its current form UtaPri has been wrote with 2 Arcs of about 2 seasons + an OVA which ,all told, run 52 episodes (53 if OVA is counted).  When one Arc was finished they had to find a way to bridge to the next story they were going to write which...isn’t easy because how many events can you write for in the idol world unless (I think) you start thinking globally So far the Arcs they have been going with were UtaPri Awards Season 1 - Formation of STARISH Season 2 - The first encounter with HEAVENS Bridge - Shining Star Xmas (OVA) Triple S Season 3 - The Cross-Units/1st Entry Concert w/ Return of HEAVENS Season 4 - The 1st winner announced/duet project/2nd Election w/ Winner Now we have an interesting situation BECAUSE of the fact that STARISH won the big concert at the end of Season 4 so one would think the show is over Not...quite! If we are to assume that the Movie is going to “Bridge” to a new season and project then what we have coming is going to be interesting as far as the next Arc cos we have to assume its going to be another 2 season run (this is based off off the way they have basically done the show from this point before) So what would I do with Season 5?  Its a gamble BUT the big thing would be to do something that starts to establish HEAVENS more than what Season 4 did.  I firmly believe that HEAVENS was supposed to be focused on MORE in the last season but the producers got cold feet and went with the “safe idea”...even if the Oricon in some ways showed differently but EYYYY! The ideas that I had for the next season of the show were based originally around the idea that in Season 4 STARISH won first and then QN would take on HEAVENS OR The idea was going to be that HEAVENS would have faced STARISH in a best of 7 solo and then the winner was going to face QN...that was my original idea as convoluted as it was but now we basically have QN and HEAVENS it seems chomping at the bit...what do we do? Well here is an idea One of my big ideas for the season/arc would have been that HEAVENS stayed with Raging (and it looks like that IS happening) BUT they got a new composer to write for them.  Raging felt that Nanami’s songs WERE GOOD but not good enough to beat STARISH and QN so he needed someone with a bit more “Edge” to them.  He gets a new composer whom graduated from a music school not far from where HEAVENS is located (I have had it in my head that Raging and Shining have had studios and agencies pretty far apart from each other) and this person (let’s go with the idea that its another female but my original idea was a male composer) for some reason which gets explained through  the season HATES Nanami and wants her gone from the industry BUT... Eiichi had other plans Eiichi’s driving goal is to have Haruka as the composer of HEAVENS even if his Father wants this new girl.  He comes up with a plan to try and make this a reality He challenges QN to a contest at a NEO DREAM SPECIAL which would take place at the end of the season and if HEAVENS won they would get Nanami BUT if they lost...gone and DONE! QN agrees to the contest and through the episodes leading up to the final we get to meet the QN boys a little more and we get to meet EVEN MORE of HEAVENS’ character as each character got a solo episode...this works because of the idea that now we can really start to break down and learn the motivations of the HEAVENS boys and what makes each tick.  Yeah we got to learn A LITTLE through the duet project but that was mostly a rushed info dump or a third party.  This would be THEM giving us the info we never got and would build up the anticipation for the season finale. Finale comes and HEAVENS would win this round BUT it is going to make sense because NOW (as if they weren’t before) QN is pissed off because they lost Nanami to HEAVENS and now are desperate to get her back...to do THAT however they would need STARISH’s help and now its simple:  One final match between STARISH and HEAVENS whom, even if HEAVENS has yet to beat STARISH they had been the proverbial thorn in their side! STARISH would face HEAVENS one more time at the end of Season 6 and this time its a final!  It ends up being all groups goodbyes BUT STARISH would go on to get Nanami back one final time and that would wrap up the series! NOW....things have changed slightly! We still go with the idea of HEAVENS getting a new composer (Again female) but I thought about “softening” the character for this reason: The new composer from Raging’s Agency would work with HEAVENS but under QN’s watch as Juniors.  The idea is that QN knows how close HEAVENS was to being on the brink of elimination AND beating STARISH so they wanted to get to work with them.  Whilst the new composer might NOT be the biggest fan of this idea he/she goes along with it to get an idea of how QN works as a unit and then tries to incorporate that with the HEAVENS charges.  The season would MOSTLY focus on HEAVENS both Solo and as a group but we would definitely see QN help out their new kids to try and improve them before their next big test which would could down the line As the season progresses we do learn a lot more about the boys and how they work musically and in other ways to see what they could use to motivate them with their new songs.  The big thing though is that by the end of Season 6 (and yes this is only season 5 we are talking about) they have to be ready for one big test which we will call the “NEO DREAM SPECIAL” You remember Neo Dream right?  That was the show that MasaToki appeared on when they performed Original Resonance (one of my fave performances both in Animated and live form BTW)...yeah that!  Well the idea is that for the “Final Test” for his group Raging wants HEAVENS to perform on this special and if they won...they didn’t just win the contest but they won their freedom from their contract with him. Back in Season 5 for a minute and as we go and we learn about the new girl’s methods we find out she actually isn’t a complete militant and she actually is worried sick for HEAVENS (apparently Eiji told them about the tensions during the Triple S season) and vowed that no matter what they were going to make sure they were happy and they were safe from his abusive practices. By the time Season 6 comes their “Beginner’s class” with QN is over and now its onto the Master course and this time its when Shining AND Raging make it perfectly clear the end goal which becomes the NEO DREAM SPECIAL at the end of the season.  Shining also does inform them that the judges would be in fact his prize group in STARISH BUT...he makes one thing perfectly clear Should STARISH show ANY favoritism to QN they would be disbanded publicly at the show and he wouldn’t blink DOING IT!  He wants it to be a true fair fight and while the winner would be in the hands of his prize group that DOESN’T mean that he would let them just pick QN just because HOWEVER... During the season Raging legit lives up to his name and his temper starts to get the best of him!  He wants Shining in ruin SO BADLY that he starts to take out his frustrations NOT JUST ON HIS KIDS but also on Kira, Van and anyone within an arm’s reach! Eiichi panics and comes up with a plan with HEAVENS’ composer and Nanami whom he and Eiji call out of fear The NEO DREAM SPECIAL that they were working towards...he wanted a new condition put on it with Shining’s Blessing HEAVENS wins the contest at the NDS and HEAVENS can leave Raging and go to Shining’s agency HEAVENS LOSES and they become Raging’s slaves for all eternity Nanami gets a ho;d of Shining whom hears about the problems at Raging’s and agrees to the condition but he would have to go talk with Raging himself and Raging whom is so DONE with his Son agrees because he knows WHEN HEAVENS lets him down again it will be their grave! Now its an all or nothing fight for the freedom of a group that has been through hell and back to get out!  If HEAVENS wins they are free and if they lose its over for them...and STARISH IS THEIR PAROLE OFFICER! the NEO DREAM SPECIAL would be either the life sentence for HEAVENS...or their way COMPLETELY OUT of the hell “Daddy dearest” put them through...I think...we know how this ends up!

[kyungpom]

i didn’t and that just goes to show how reliable the info that is being passed around is. i’m not gonna link the post so i won’t direct anyone there but it’s a sub!soo url (no surprises here) i can’t believe somebody has put that much effort into pulling stuff out of my blog to present it to people out of context to “prove” i’m a horrible person and to have an excuse to attack me and incite people to do the same and to intimidate others so that they won’t associate with me. and all because i talked about heteronormativity in kyungsoo fic. “it’s a shame that even though topping or bottoming doesn’t have to be tied to personality or physical appearance a lot of people can’t accept that and you can’t even talk about it because it causes a riot. “

point proven. a year ago some kaisoo shippers attacked me because of a stupid post, started a top vs bottom war in the tags, a big ksoo blog made a post about me and somebody sent me a message that said something like “we’re coming for you” and i didn’t think it would take them this long to come back, whoever that was.

so i saw a callout post for me with screencaps and they added one of my replies where an anon asked me what are my fave ships and i said smth like: ksoo/animals, ksoo/kids im ????? (if the joke wasn’t clear i meant to say i like kyungsoo interacting with animals, kids and i think i’ve even said i like him/food more than i like ships lmao i don’t even have an otp cause i don’t obsess over fictional relationships like that. i think i even said ksoo/himself once. i always change the answer when ppl ask me about my otp cause i don’t have one. and then they proceeded to interpret other posts related to children in a p*dophillic way.

and btw i don’t use “shipping” as romantic exclusively because humans are more complicated than that so that’s another thing to keep in mind in the future.

and on the topic of fiction they also posted some darker headcanons and posts about movies to demonstrate how i think kyungsoo is actually like that when i literally used the word headcanon which means it’s a personal interpretation separate from reality, hence the ‘head’ part of the word aka i don’t think it’s real it’s just in your head and you shouldn’t think so either but i guess some people don’t know how to read?) this blog clearly says in the description there will be darker stuff in here. IF NOT from fic, fanart or headcanons, from kyungsoo’s own works:

and we will talk about them because what i intend to normalize in relation to dark fiction is not that these things are ok but that violent and dark thoughts like these are normal (ask anyone who’s got their head out of their ass, esp. a psychologist and you will see) they can be intrusive or nightmares or your own experiences, they can be things you’re afraid of and it’s ok to talk about them with someone who understands this, to analyze them, and to learn from them without fear of getting harassed (yes, you can learn from this stuff, believe it or not). because guess what? even your faves have their own inner world where dark things brew and are interested in this kind of fiction too! they might even want to play the most horrible characters themselves

(x)

(x)

these are some of the warnings for the movies he mentioned:

taken from the chaser & i saw the devil parental guides.

and you know why they wanna do it? me neither but i would like to hear them talk about it without the fear of the public lashing out at them for interpreting a character. but what can you really expect from a public that freaks out over something as normal as an idol dating? who screams out “p*dophile” at the slightest chance (remember when ksoo had a kiss with a minor in pure love and they kissed through an umbrella and ppl still found a way to make him look bad he even regretted his answers?)

the post also added fics with undeage characters... did you know one of those fics is literally a response to all the fic out there that romanticizes that sort of relationship? �� (not linking the fic to protect the author but those who know the title can look it up)

kyungsoo himself, movie directors, fic authors and even simple bloggers like me trust kyungsoo to play a dislikable character precisely because we know he’s not like that and we believe in his potential to portray anything from a loving father to a serial killer.

i’ve always made it clear that the fic i post is not recs, they’re just fics i’ve read (i had the note for years on the fic list before i removed the page cause tumblr glitched and deleted my links and people still didn’t read it back then so meh) nobody really knows how i feel about the fics if they don’t ask me. and nobody knows the intention of the authors either so i hope you can all think before you speak and have the common sense to ask before you jump to conclusions. not because you see a word that means something horrible attached to a fic or anything it means the person is a bad influence and should be avoided at all costs. be grateful that they had the decency to warn so you could avoid it if you don’t want to see it and they didn’t omit it out of fear or ignorance like a lot of r*pe-y and emotionally abusive fic w/o warnings that people share like it’s romance.

wtf this person also sexualized a post where an anon and i talked about kyungsoo having children and glaring at them so they wouldn’t hurt themselves..... jesus have these people not been around children before? they run around naked and knock things off all the damn time, i cant believe they used THIS post sdfggfdsdf idk if i should laugh or cry oh my god.

just because my blog has a url like this it doesn’t mean everything’s meant to be sexual ???? it’s like having a url that says “exosdigbick” and posting pictures of exo’s bicks and then a picture of exo smiling and then a pic of them holding their dogs. it doesn’t have to be related. i didn’t even choose the url myself, it was the other owner of the blog (it’s kinda like saying “food porn") and i kept it after she left because when those who don’t know it see it they can imagine there will be some sexual stuff in here, mostly fic links, anon fantasies and the occassional reblogged nsfw fanart. i only rarely talk about my own sexual fantasies cause it’s awkward. and i’m even afraid to joke because ppl will literally take anything to twist it against you.

im sorry but @ anyone who comes across my blog with preconceived ideas pls leave them at the door and come see for yourself if you want or stay out looking like a fool. this blog isn’t a typical shipper blog or a ficrec blog or wtvr you’re used to seeing around, this is a personal blog dedicated to some underrated concepts (and wtvr else kyungsoo stuff i feel like reblogging at the moment) by an LGBT+ person who’s tired of the world’s bullshit and just wants to do stuff in peace. people misunderstand my sexuality, my gender, my mental illnesses, my everything all the time and that’s mostly from people who’s supposed to know and care about me so some strangers on the internet misunderstanding yet another thing about me is nothing new. callout post? u mean dedicated haters :\ it took me forever to find my own posts smh
