R x J Week 2024 Day 5: Psychic
@senshixshitennouweeks late as can be but hopefully good
“That fortuneteller was full of crap!”
Rei fumed as she and Usagi left the tent of ‘Rani the Mysterious.’
“I don’t know,” Usagi said, pausing from inhaling the massive cotton candy she’d bought the moment they’d entered the carnival, “she told me I would marry young and live to old age with my sweetheart.”
The romantic wistfulness on her face melted into consternation.
“But then she said my first child would come before marriage.”
“Count yourself lucky,” Rei said, “that quack said that I would fall in love with someone I’ve already met, already hurt, been hurt by, and I wouldn’t know when I met them again.”
“In that order?”
Rei rolled her eyes.
“As if I would ever allow any of that to happen to me,” she said with a huff.

“That fortuneteller was full of crap!”
Kunzite looked up from the map of the carnival he held in his hands, his frown matching Jadeite’s.
“I don’t know why you even went in there,” he said, “you usually don’t go in for this sort of thing.”
Jadeite rolled his eyes.
“I lost a bet with Zoisite. I had to go to the next huckster I saw and let them ‘take me for a ride.”
“And that’s why we’re in disguise, in the middle of a carnival?”
Jadeite crossed his arms.
“If I didn’t hold up my end, I’d never hear the end of it. You know how Zoisite is.”
Kunzite sighed, then folded up the map and turned to go.
“I’ll have a talk with Zoisite,” he said.
Jadeite fell into step beside him.
“You better,” he replied, “that ‘Rani the Mysterious’ said that I would be dominated by a fiery woman.”
“She could have been talking about Beryl?”
Jadeite shook his head.
“Doubt it,” he said, “Beryl only gets pissed when someone screws up. Namely me.”
“If that’s the case, then it’s nothing to worry about.”
“Psychics,” Jadeite muttered, shoving his hands into his pockets, “I’ll never understand the appeal."

I feel so vindicated right now. After all those fights with Seiya fans and Seiusa shippers over whose better and guess what it turns out that not only have Mamoru and Usagi have been dating for years after Seiya well died but she and Mamoru are happily married so HA!

The best ship dynamic is actually just. "I love you and it terrifies me. I'm terrified how much I need you and how much I want you to need me. I'm terrified I'm no good for you and I'm going to hurt you and ruin you and I'm terrified of how I feel when you're around me but I can't bear to push you away completely because I'm terrified to be without you so now we're stuck in limbo and that's terrifying too. I'm terrified that if I lost you now it'd destroy me and I'm terrified that it's too late to do anything about it. I love you. And it's terrifying."

R x J Week 2024 Day 7: Recognition
@senshixshitennouweeks
"And 1st place goes to Ms. Rei Hino!"
She’d joined this competition on a whim. And maybe as a favor.
Minako, in her infinite wisdom, had gone and caught herself a summer cold (during one of her coquettish escapades) and had begged her friends to join the Miss Seaside pageant in her place.
Of course, College courses for the rest of the senshi had left them with little time to actually join a beauty pageant, which left Rei to take pity on Minako (or rather try to get her to stop pestering her) and enter.
She hadn't expect to *win* though. But here she was, bedecked in a tiara and a swimsuit being handed a sash and bouquet of roses.
It was almost too much.
***
“She asked you to what?”
Rei huffed at Jad and tossed another handful of seeds to Phobos and Deimos.
"Enter the Miss Seaside pageant for her and I won!"
"That's crazy," Jad said. He'd just returned from a "guys' brunch" and had yet to change into the robes he wore for working at the shrine.
"It's like something out of an anime!?" Rei replied.
"Well, I can't say I'm surprised you won."
Rei frowned.
"What do you mean by that."
"I mean, you are incredibly beautiful."
Rei flushed.
"Get changed and get to work," she grumbled.

Reblogging to be a pal
My Response To “Why I love the Toxic Romance of Sailor Moon”
I came across this video online: 
youtube
My short response: I disagree. 
My long response: Buckle UP
Tumblr media
     It should be noted the video isn’t presenting the argument for just the 90s aspect of the Usagi x Mamoru relationship but is lumping Crystal and the Manga into the argument and insisting it's a toxic romance. The creator of this video breaks down their argument into pointing out three different aspects of the Usagi X Mamoru relationship: 
The age gap and the power dynamic is causes
The lack of choice in the relationship 
How Seiya offers Usagi choice
     Let’s tackle all three of the points and see where the argument breaks down. First off the age gap…sigh…
The Age Gap
Tumblr media
     At this point I’m sick of even going into this aspect of the argument. Frankly over the years it comes off as far too personal for many individuals and they can’t separate these feelings when they enter into fiction. If you can’t get over the aspect Usagi is dating an older (4-5 years) man and are uncomfortable with the power dynamic this presents in a relationship then this isn’t the show for you. 
     Still, can people stop acting like it's a huge age gap? This isn’t like the age gap that comes like Bunny Drop (that series really took a turn later in the manga) so can we all stop acting like Mamoru is riding around in a van offering Usagi candy? Moving on…
Tumblr media
The Lack of Choice in the Relationship
     The video argues even if you look past the reincarnation element of the Mamoru x Usagi relationship, the introduction of Crystal Tokyo and them becoming King and Queen causes the relationship to become toxic. With this expectation to reach this status, the two are pressured to stay together whether they are ideal for each other or not. This lack of choice is described by the video as being toxic. 
     While the aspects of destiny are prevalent in Sailor Moon, it is important to distinguish the difference between fate and destiny. Fate are the events that will happen when someone doesn't take responsibility. Destiny is what can be achieved through growth and one's own actions. Usagi and Mamoru are shown to be willing to fight for their goals and each other. Usagi wants to be a bride. She wants to be Mamoru’s bride. Mamoru wants to have a family with Usagi so he never feels alone like he did when he was a kid (the movie Sailor Moon R: Promise of the Rose shows this in detail). They support and nurture each other and fight against the forces of evil in the process. 
Tumblr media
     It should be noted despite knowing their destiny they still have moments where they need a reminder they need to keep fighting. Usagi has to be reminded at the end of Sailor Moon R to continue the fight. She is reminded of her need to step up by talking with Naru who has no idea she is Sailor Moon.  
      This doesn't just apply to Usagi. Mamoru, upon seeing Usagi with Haruka, feels jealous and is shown to be depressed by it. Only by working together on a project not related to fighting evil but something as simple as helping Chibi Usa with an assignment are they able to reconnect. 
Tumblr media
     Also the future they are shown isn't terrible or apocalyptic. The two are shown to be happy, have achieved peace, and are still in love. Why wouldn't they work to achieve it?
The Illusion of Choice With Seiya
     A recent argument I see a lot of Seiya x Usagi fans using is “Seiya offers Usagi choice. Something Mamoru never did.” While it can be argued Seiya is offering Usagi a choice, it is not necessarily a good choice. Look at the hard facts of Seiya’s mission: they are dedicated to Princess Kakyuu and planned on leaving the planet as soon as they found her. Under these aspects, the choices Seiya is offering are not in Usagi’s favor. At best, Seiya is offering Usagi to leave the planet so they can be together, meaning Usagi would have to give up all her friends and family just so she could be together with Seiya. At worst, Seiya is asking Usagi to engage in a long distant relationship to be together. Considering how critical Seiya was about Usagi engaging in a long distance relationship with someone who was supposed to be on the same planet, the idea of even suggesting such a thing to Usagi makes Seiya a hypocrite. 
Tumblr media
In conclusion:
Here are a few examples of ACTUAL toxic relationships in anime: 
Gundam Seed: When Fllay uses sex to keep Kira focused on fighting the enemy forces to exact her revenge. 
Death Note: Light Yagami intentionally manipulates Misa’s feelings to use her as a tool to exact his plan for bringing his version of justice to the world. 
Revolutionary Girl Utena: Akio romancing and bedding Utena for his own purposes while at the same time sexually abusing his sister Anthy.  
Fruits Basket: Shigure slept with Ren (Akito's mother) as revenge for Akito sleeping with Kureno.
Tumblr media
These are Toxic relationships where people are legitimately being hurt by being a part of it. Though the future Usagi and Mamoru witness is imposing, their interactions are actually supportive in nature. In summary, I don't agree with this video and continue to express that Usagi and Mamoru have a relationship others can and should ascribe to obtain.
