16 Favourite Moments from the Anniversary Chats

In alphabetical order. Long post.

Amon

Amon's yearning for Beel and now MC is on full display here. It's sweet, if sad.

Amy

It's cute that Amy is so overstimulated by the thought of being able to go on a date with us that he has take a moment to calm his beating heart lest Sitri hears it and ruins it for him.

Bael

A demon genuinely acknowledging our human lifespan is uncommon. And Bael does it beautifully here.

Barbatos

Barbatos is full of charming compliments. Keep laying them on me, sun boy.

Beleth

A tiny bit of backstory. Sincere honesty from Beleth about how he wants us. Compliments us. And ends with some spice as a cherry on top. I think this chat has everything you could want.

Bimet

He was nice in a very Bimet-like way. Compliments us while taking full advantage of the situation.

Foras

Foras got the cake recipe from notoriously bad cook Bael and I just want to see the funny aftermath.

Gamigin

Cutie-pie, family-man Gamigin. Love him.

Glasyalabolas

Glasy up to his usual antics. Levi deserves to be teased about MC and Glasy does a good job of it.

Marbas

Some intense emotions from Marbas are shown here that were a pleasant surprise. I've always been a sucker for the trope of loving someone so much that they are your only weakness. Also, I wasn't expecting him to explicitly put us above Solomon, but I love it. Sitri take notes.

Naberius

Naberius stating he could only be happy if we settle down in Hell and trying to convince us to stay is very sweet.

Paimon

I really want to see his outfit. I like that he wants to match with us.

Phenix

I'm fascinated by eating food off of a person's body. I think Phenix would be a very good plate.

Ppyong

I just like that we got a chat from Ppyong for the first time. I love that little guy. Also, the mention of Minhyeok was a good touch.

Sitri

I don’t care for him still referring to us as Solomon. I just like him informing us about Satan putting having a National Holiday for our arrival in Hell to a vote and the other Kings agreeing immediately.

Stolas

It is very cute that he was so excited about celebrating our arrival anniversary that he couldn’t sleep for two weeks leading up to it.

As a bonus: Here’s the Full King Anniversary Chat

Listen if any of you for even a minute think that I'm even remotely smart because of my analysis posts about Look Outside. I need you to stop thinking that.

I am a person who loves puns, I love dad jokes I love me some good wordplay. But I am also so genuinely dense that I would not blame you if you thought that my mind was a black hole.

Which is to say I, CrunchyBeards, Look Outside fan for going on 3 months now, have just realised that Xin Amon is just a different way to phonetically spell out Cinnamon.

Okay so

It's weird to me that

In all of the cybrid games we have no character design for the side characters like cyril, carl, Kyubei, Kojuro

And not to mention all the villains and stuff

But then we have these Assholes.

Like- WHY do these two get a character design????? When the others don't? Is there some Lord behind it? Does anyone know why? Any theories? Please share them in the comments in curious

[spotofmummery]

Allagans on the Moon?

Just as likely as you'd think!

And look:

The MoonBuns display an appropriate amount of respect for what the Glory of Allag can bring to their cosmic exploration initiative! If only more were as open to utilizing these gifts from Allag!

TG characters and how they would play Stardew

Kaneki: Cozy farm, on the spectrum of constantly broke to min-maxer he’s somewhere in the middle. He started playing the game to relax and unwind and it sucked him in. Now he’s gotten to the point in the game where he can actually relax. He’s probably married to Sam or Elliott

Touka: She focuses more on animals than crops, and her farm is filled with rabbits. She has a couple purely aesthetic mods installed and has a very cute farm. She’s also gotten to at least floor 200 in the skull caverns. I feel like she’d marry Penny.

Hide: Pure chaos. 10 billion chests with nothing organized. He has no money ever. He only started playing cause Kaneki wanted to try a multiplayer run and was banned from the game after 2 days for giving all of their resources away to Haley (she hated all of them)

Hinami: Mix between Touka’s and Kaneki’s, just replace the rabbits with chickens. She has made it down even further than Touka in skull caverns. She’d take Krobus as a roomate.

Akira: Not a min-maxer but still pretty close. She has the entire stardew valley wiki memorized and has reached completion at least twice. She always makes sure her farm looks nice, and tries to get a ton of chests so she can organize her stuff early-game. She likes the fishing minigame.

Amon: He’s in a state of perpetually having next to no money and is stuck on floor 40 of the mines. He has 12 parsnips that he forgets to water. He doesn’t know that chests exist. Despite all this, he’s still having fun. He likes fishing enough, and he spends most of his time befriending the villagers. He gets really sad when they don’t like his gifts

Seidou: He’s not bad. He doesn’t have the best luck, so that tends to be a problem for him. He gets really frustrated with the game sometimes and quits for a bit before returning. He’s a decent way through the game and he’s completed the community centre. He doesn’t use the wiki at all and tries to avoid spoilers. He’s trying his hardest to marry Alex.

Juuzou: Didn’t know how to play, became a min-maxer within three days. Seidou hates him for this.

Throwback to when Avatar the Legend of Korra really got the most op villain (Amon) who could have had a running gag or jokes around his abilities yet they got rid of the dude because they originally planned 1 season and needed closure.

Like imagine a random talk between Amon and somebody going:

“The Avatar will find you and take your bending away!”

“Or maybe I take away hers, AGAIN”

Or

“Fire Lord Ozai was so dangerous the Avatar took his bending away”

“Ok and I am so dangerous I took the Avatar’s bending away.”

Or

“Do you know what it feels like to be a nonbendef?”

“No I know what it feels like to make somebody a non bender”

Or somebody outright mistaking him for the Avatar because of his abilities.

“You took away his bending, you are the water tribe avatar!“

“Um, I’m just some never properly convicted criminal”

Like the potential for so many plots or jokes or interactions that could have happened if LOK was properly planned and they kept Amon as a reverse Zuko who just wants to mind his business, be far away from republic city, the avatar and just do his thing in secret and beat up some random annoying benders. But he just randomly keeps running into Korra or other people from his past and having to deal with his bullshit.

Or if he was made to be kinda more chill to stay away from authorities and being in a mess, but whenever somebody who knows who Amon was , recognizes him (like Korra or team avatar or tenzin or the lieutenant ) everyone is just permanently angry at him , but also scared of him.

So their first reaction is to either scream or attack him out of sheer primal reflex . So everyone just starts jumping trough windows or gasping or throwing whatever they’re holding at the dude whenever he walks into a room and new characters who don’t know who he is are like “dafuck”

[trans-mephisto]

Oh yeah

Shout out to Kazue Kato for being one of the concerningly few manga artists who actually make characters of color look like normal people 💪💪💪

[jettreno]

there obv IS a prevalent and aggravating trend of stories having an antagonist who correctly identifies a flaw in society and aims to fix it but also commits atrocities along the way that the narrative claims to undermine the entire goal and then when the hero defeats them it is in the name of the status quo - but people sometimes point to legend of korra as an example of this which is so annoying bc like man how can you not understand a show written for children. every single season ends with korra defeating the villains and then saying "they had some points tho!" and then changing the status quo to address the flaw the villain identified

[jazeswhbvault]

i would love a dating sim route for the whb demons especially the nobles (though i love the kings too ofc) even if it was just like how they did loveunholyc where its mostly just chat messages

(spoiler for amons new chat) ive already been going insane today over amons new chat where he wants to go on a date with mc i am not hard to please 😔 pb pleaseee

AMON OMG THE BABES????? I love that he wants to go on a date ;w;

the more we get on the chats the better I feel we get to know the nobles way more.

i also wouldn't mind more of slice of life events with them or personal chats where we can go back and forth, choose options and end up with a good or neutral ending (or bad).

If they did it where it was just mostly chats for the routes I honestly wouldn't mind. I'd probably play through them all to see what it's like dating each devil plus the kings.

[wihellib]

Amon, I love you, but your fingers are almost at salad fingers levels.

[crowsnhoes]

One of my fav things about TG is when Akira makes advances on Amon he straight up refuses her. Even after all that happened in his past, his catholic values/habits still show through, like when he does a shit ton of push ups to get Akira off his mind.

Amon when he stops Akira from kissing him

Also, your 'Amon stays in the CCG and works with Haise' AU is fantastic and should have been canon. Poor Amon misses Eyepatch terribly (he still has QUESTIONS damnit!) but doesn't want to get Haise (or Akira) in trouble, so he can't really say much, but he and Haise get suspicious of the CCG being corrupted. They investigate together, but they have to be discreet and they HATE IT, the CCG is supposed to represent justice! Inner!Kaneki drops hints and nags Haise in the background constantly.

YESSSSS GOD AMON AND HAISE NOT INTERACTING IN :RE WAS SUCH A MISSED OPPORTUNITY TO ME I WAS SO GENUINELY SURPRISED WHEN THEY NEVER DID

In the context of my AU I think Amon would feel so let down by the emergence of the Quinx project. He's spent all this time investigating the CCG's suspicious sides and almost uncovered what they were really aiming to do and then it just gets. Announced, just like that. That they're putting ghoul organs in people to use as weapons. It feels wrong. Everything clicks terribly into place. But he can't say anything. And Eyepatch is gone already (or so he Thinks) It all feels anti-climatic, somehow.

Then he meets this new investigator, who shakes his hand and greets him cheerily. He's being mentored by Akira. They are to treat him as a human unless he loses control, to which they'll treat him as a ghoul. It's Eyepatch. It's Haise Sasaki. Amon has to stomach the thought of both working with him and potentially having to "erase" him if he remembers who he is. He likes Haise, even if he's different from Eyepatch, but Haise might not be around forever, for one reason or another. He's never had to kill a co-worker or friend before. (I think, similar to Akira in canon :re Amon would be assigned a big role in leading squads when the CCG has to keep Haise under control. It only makes sense, he's done significant damage to him before, in half-kakuja form no less, and managed to escape this guy even without a weapon. And he's also like, one of the Only Guys who has ever killed a ghoul with his bare hands before.) Still though, the thought of killing Haise, whether it be with a quinque through the heart or the snap of a neck, is nauseating.

The CCG higher-ups are suspicious, obviously, because Amon is the only one who truly knows Everything about Eyepatch, and he might screw with Haise's memories. They're keeping an eye on him and make sure they don't get too close, unless Amon needs to confront Haise, since Haise, even when losing control, just can't seem to hurt him. Not really at least (if it ever does happen he feels So Guilty) ((Also sidenote but Haise probably visibly winces when he first meets Amon. His head hurts and he's not sure why. He feels melancholic and he doesn't know why. He feels a flood of relief. But he doesn't know why. He likes Amon a lot and wants to get to know him. The white-haired ghoul in his head seems particularly fixated on him, won't stop looking at him. Haise somehow knew Amon's name before he was even told what it was. He surmises that it's just because Amon is so well-known in general. (He knows, deep down, that it might be more than just that)))

Haise has small recollections of memories, but he can't tell anyone, obviously. Sometimes he has nightmares of flower fields and battles under the rain. When he and Amon get closer he tells him a little about them. "It's probably nothing" he laughs, unsure, but Amon knows what they really mean. He sees Eyepatch in Haise and it hurts terribly. He fears the chance that he'll never get to ask the questions he had, almost as much as he fears the chance that one day he suddenly will. The answers he's wanted for so long are so close that they are literally standing right next to him, yet they're so far.

As things move forward they definitely try to investigate and figure out the CCG's corrupt system together. But they have to be careful, on the outside co-workers (including Akira) make comments about how close they are and what a good team they make but within the inner-workings of the CCG they have their careful eyes on them. Maybe Akira's a little weary about it, tells Amon as such sometime and Amon says he knows (but there are things he can't tell even her.) Maybe one time Haise and Amon talk briefly, maybe after or during Haise losing control of himself and he says something and it sounds hauntingly like Eyepatch. Haise had looked at him differently during that moment. His voice sounded different. It was pained, but not in the physical sense. Maybe it wasn't Haise at all, actually.

Haise has a dream once about a man shouting asking him if he really is just a ghoul. Somehow he doesn't feel like it's for him. (But surely it means something to Kaneki Ken). Maybe, like in that comic I drew, Kaneki is incredibly relieved that Amon is alive, but also terribly jealous that all he can do is watch from the shadows LOL

Ough sorry I got SO carried away I've just been meaning to list out some of the details of my AU thoughts for AGES this has been living rent free in my mind for MONTHS it's one of my favorite thoughts Ever

It's insane, how many parallels are setup between Kaneki/Haise and Amon, yet Haise and Amon never meet once, even though Amon is foreshadowed constantly during :re. To be fair there is so much going on in :re already but still, man. Man,

[ebbyhell]

Today i offer you guys Amon second chats with what i choose to say, we see does not like the rainy days (i know an devil he whould not get along with), haved his hair used to make clothes that Stoles used once (wonder how they looked like?)

tokyo ghoul theory

Okay, so we all know that Shuu’s hair somehow changed colour sometime between tg and tg:re. and after YEARS of meticulous study, I have finally determined why

It was a retcon.

NO WAIT THERES MORE I SWEAR

So, Shuu’s hair went from purple to blue right? so let’s think about this.

Shuu (now) has blue hair, likes food, and speaks french. And you know who ELSE has blue hair, likes food, and speaks french?

That’s right, Saiko Yonebayashi.

So, as Ishida would never change a character’s design without reason, this change MUST be to showcase his connection to Saiko. and think about it, we never see Saiko’s father, and Saiko has a naturally higher affinity with her kagune than the other Quinxes. So, it would make sense that she was part ghoul, or in this case, part Tsukiyama.

So, anyway, that’s my theory. Saiko is a Tsukiyama :>

EXCEPT IM NOT DONE

You see, whenever we see Saiko speaking french, it’s to one person in particular.

Haise Sasaki. And look at what she’s calling him. “Maman” is actually the French word for “mother.” Now, why would Saiko be calling Haise her mother?

Well, as close readers will notice, Haise Sasaki is actually Ken Kaneki, aka the object of Shuu Tsukiyama’s affections. and remember what I said earlier about Saiko’s father?

So, I propose that Saiko is not just a Tsukiyama, but ACTUALLY the lovechild of Kaneki and Tsukiyama. But how could she exist? Kaneki and Tsukiyama only met 2 years prior, and Saiko is 20 years old. Well, I have a theory for that as well.

So, let’s go back to the start. Tsukiyama’s hair changed colour sometime between tg and tg:re. Well, I retract my earlier statement that this was retcon. Because I believe that it was ACTUALLY caused by an anomaly in the spacetime continuum. An anomaly named Saiko Yonebayashi. Saiko was transported to the main timeline from an alternate universe, shuffling things around in the process, INCLUDING Tsukiyama’s hair colour.

But how, you may ask? Well, this panel reveals it all

You see, while to most viewers, it would simply look like she is being unhelpful, she is actually attempting to convey who she is and her origins to her father. This "Saiko power" is likely what allowed her the ability to cross through dimensions, and its limitations are still unknown. Further research on this topic is required.

Now, why she came to the main timeline, I do not know. As Wegener spent his life trying to find the mechanisms for continental drift, I may never be able to truly discover the motivations of the elusive Saiko Yonebayashi. Which is why I'm going to clone myself so, unlike Wegener, when my theory is proven correct, I'll actually be around to see it

[dragooooo]

Question for the xenogender community, am I allowed to make a xenogender character even if I (to my knowledge) aren’t? Also, is ragegender a thing? Cause like, I feel like thats something Amon (the oc) would identify with. If not, am I allowed to coin that? Coining is thr term, right? Please tell me things I’m new to all this ;-;
