Musical Touken Ranbu: Michinooku ~ Hitotsu Hachisu (Michinooku ~ A Single Lotus)
Here we go! Only a few days after the archive release and toumyu's ninth anniversary (congratulations!)
Michioku, or Michihasu, is a myu I have many conflicting feelings about, both positive and negative. However, I do believe that with the right amount of care in the next Mika-related story myu, the negative can still be cleared. Plus, I'm glad about a lot of things being re-established. The writer does need to step up her game a little on the plot-writing side of things, as well as the understanding-and-respecting-past-myu side of things, but as long as she does, this can still be given a proper place within what was already established.
Keep in mind that these are only the subtitle files, timed and tled to the DMM senshuuraku and the bluray respectively. The archive version will have a talk at the start, so the starting times of the subs will have to be delayed accordingly.
You can find the subtitles and my TL notes document here!
#touken ranbu#toumyu#water's translations#michioku#michihasu#how do I put this#seeing as myu's director Kayano has said in an interview right before Michioku that Kogi and Mika have a special bond#different from other swords-- and then they try to speedrun *Tsuru* and Mika having a what feels like it was intended to be#even greater relationship using a song called Kage Futatsu where KOGI'S signature song from Utaawase was Futatsu no Kage???#I SINCERELY want to believe it's incompetence rather than the writer deliberately pulling the rug from under Kogi's feet#bc the alternative is just cruel#I don't particularly mind the relationship Mika and Tsuru have in this play but I feel that not for a moment Kogi and kara respectively#were considered in the writing#anyway my final verdict is that this myu is what too many people think tsuwa is: the divorce myu (between Mika and Tsuru this time)#in all cases I hope myu can bring Shirakawa Yuki in again like with Datemyu just to offload myu's already deathly busy writer (she's done#5 myus in a month before which is just insane) because I feel this just isn't sustainable with the amount of carefulness a long-running#franchise like myu demands and the *writing* quality (not the production quality AT ALL Michioku's is great) is suffering for it.#like sure Michioku is loaded with references but they're references that either don't serve *Michioku's own* plot or their treatment shows#a lack of understanding of the work it's referencing-- for example Kashuu calling upon atsu's “This is how the shinsengumi fights!” actuall#goes completely contrary to the lesson he's supposed to have learned from atsuibun: that swords aren't disposable and that he has duties as#both soldier (captain in atsu) and as COMRADE and he makes the (already highlighted in Michioku!) dumb decision of butting in without#thinking-- and with that framed against manba's breaking trauma as well! He's supposed to have learned to stay rational and consider both#duties yet here he is ---BECAUSE of the reference--- completely leaning on the pre-atsu-development side of the scale#as if Ishi's words went one ear in one ear out. And yes the scene by itself could've worked as a subversion to show Kashuu makes the#'irrational' decision against what Ishi taught him to consider precisely because he cares for the people he's protecting but there is NO#groundwork laid at all for that in the rest of Michioku! This is what I mean with the carelessness of the references and the lack of#consideration for what prior myus were trying to SAY and ACHIEVE which is insane because she was the lyricist for those#it's more a collage of feelings provided through a set of characters calling back to the scripts of prior myu rather than#a story that evokes feelings bc the humans in it walk forward and act upon-- interact with-- the scenery on the road as left by prior human

ok imagine nightmare sans. now imagine those minecraft villager trading halls where all the villagers are stuck in the little cell blocks to get ideal trades. now that but replace the villagers with the murder time trio and ideal trades with negativity. he's maxxing out the negativity output for every square foot i guess,,,,,,,
there's absolutely NO space for movement it's practically a little closet. only thing is like basic necessities like food and water distributed by a killer (because he wouldn't get attatched to any of them when there's so many,,,, perhaps a different cell warden for a killer only section to avoid a killer meeting another killer and then having to deal with the mindboggle they'd face and then UGH!!!) these little negativity farms cost so little effort to make!!! all nightmare has to do is keep as many (living) sanses (IN FACT NOT EVEN THE TRIO!! but also the trio since they're easy to break down) in as little space as possible and he's practically got like. + 100k negativity every hour with just 6 of these farms. how efficient!
what do you mean it violates the genevarsal convention. DREAM STOP CONDUCTING PRISON BREAKS
(a little birdie told me u wanted 2 be tagged,,, @qin-qin16)
#nightmare's ideal vacation would be at one of these negativity farms#aaaah the screams of the angered and the sobs of the devastated..... killer go fetch me another piña colada#this line of thought is around the same as my nightmare but he's an immature brat and the trio are his replaceable toys#i laugh behind my screen at the ridiculousness of those but i know that someone else behind their screen is aghast#this is a bit concerning but listen LISTEN ok listen...... are you listening. its not that bad people have had worse thoughts#oh i can just IMAGINE all the suffering that happens here it's demented. i love my trio but man#i should really stop putting them into terrible dehumanizing situations. this is like the 14th time now.........#LISTEN ITS EITHER THIS OR THE 34TH RANT ABOUT THE TRIO HATING AND MAULING EACH OTHER. WHICH ONE WOULD YOU RATHER TRIGLYCERNATION#now add white torture into this- TRIGLYCERCULE THATS ENOIUUUUUGHHHHHH#now i know DAMN well there's like a lottery everyday and it's to see who'll get out#but then it just ends up being whoever becomes nightmare's personal tormentee until they die#i meaaan theres an INFINITE amount of aus out there. infinite copies of the trio. he can afford to lose 1 or 2. maybe 3. 4. ok 5#the cells do not get cleaned up. they are caked in the dust of all the others who have died in there#and when a dust copy is ripped from his au after killing papyrus for the first time he is only left confused and devastated#whos dust is here? the tally marks on the walls?? the dried vomit in the corner?? the weird guy monitoring him 24/7?? WHAT IS GOING ON#and then it starts to sink in and oh god if this wasn't the worst possible time for him to be introduced to the multiverse. AND TERRIBLY TO#and then he gets angry. he just decided to start killing his underground and now he did ALL THAT FOR NOTHING??? HE CAN'T HELP HIS AU IN HER#and then depression. he doesn't know how long he'll be stuck here. dust denies food and water he only silently cries and zones out#yada yada bargaining and then acceptance by which then if he's completely numb and providing no emotions killer disposes of him#it's not only dehumanizing for the prisoners but also absolutely terrible for the warden killer too#all these faces eventually blend into one and not even the most anguished of cries about other versions of papyrus do anything#SOMEONE STOP THIS MADNESS BRUH DREAM!!! DREAM PLEASE!!!!! DREAM STOP YOUR BROTHER BRO#obligatory reminder that i do not support any of this i just thought of it and it was funny but also crazy so i had to make this. REMINDER!#tricule rant#killer sans#horror sans#dust sans#murder time trio#nightmare sans#bad sanses

ummm ackshually demonic possession is a physical state not a spiritual one and it is possible for the baptized or even those in a state of grace to be afflicted thank yewwww
#LIKELY? Not very.#POSSIBLE? Yes.#but actually those who are possessed can (and are encouraged to!) receive the sacraments provided that they are correctly disposed#and reconciliation and the eucharist are much more efficacious than exorcisms

I am on my knees begging for people to contribute to public heathen spaces more. If you want less brosatru nonsense floating about, there needs to be a larger-scale effort to provide alternative narratives to it and normalize their presence.
You don't even need to pick fights with people, just create/share content that reflects your heathenry in heathen spaces. In other words, participate.
The folkish and odinists don't have nearly the level of authority they used to have, but their nonsense will keep circulating unless challenged by the average person.
#zan speaks#the most plausible worst-case scenario is that you'll piss off some dudebro when you point out the Eddas aren't scripture#and that's only if you're offstandish about it#I've spoken to a number of people from the middle of the isle who found their conversations with me enriching#besides the point isn't to correct people it's to provide a variety of perspectives so newcomers see they have choices at their disposal

In case anyone didn't know this regarding masking: advice about wearing an n95 or kn95 just depends on where you live and what is being sold where you live. The mask that meets US standards of air filtering is called the n95 and it is named that way because it filters 95% of airborne particles of a certain size. The kn95 refers to the Chinese standard. If you're in Europe then there's a different naming system which is FFP followed by a number which denotes the level of filtering. FFP2 can be seen as equivalent to the kn95 or n95 as the 95s filter 95% and the FFP2 filters 94%. Wherever you are you should look up the standards and naming conventions your country uses before buying masks. I faced some confusion after seeing guides online recommending n95 and then not being able to buy them because they aren't sold here unless imported !
#and i was soooo so glad having these masks on trains and the tube recently#btw i recommend europapa ffp2 masks because you can get them in funky colours and they are a decent price per use#and they are designed with folds that i find the most comfortable of any disposable masks i've used#because they fit the contours of the face and provide a decent seal around the mouth and nose

what is poetry to most of you? i get the sense that for some it’s about the cutting, the search for the visceral, the re-membering (or perhaps reopening) of the wound. i ask this because these days i wonder if people read poetry for the music of it all. the sound. the enchantment that comes primarily via the aural element of poetry. no judgement, just curious—i feel as if reading has shifted to becoming a mostly visual act, which could in the long run amputate poetry in some respects. would love to hear some responses, thank you and sending love.
#interesting to consider in light of the fact that most poems written today are ones i don’t feel compelled to memorize.#they like other media have fallen into the trap of being disposable?#and it also seems like the way to find audience is to not build sound or voice but to provide the fastest thrill?#it rewards the ones that go for the jugular in favor of all else#perhaps we are addicted to the sensation of brief yet intense pain#of being seen. but what is under it all? i fear without form or music it will collapse

Drink reasonable human amounts mission FAILED now it’s time for deranged post 14 shot beasts. Things Dalinar says.
#luke.txt#drunkposting#I am thinking a lot about what someone said at Oathbringer book club today#about how if jasnah killed Renarin Renarin wouldn’t have been able to save Adolin#and Adolin subsequently wouldn’t have been able to save Navani#and all of Dalinar’s immediate family would be dead#well wouldn’t you be Odium’s champion in that case? provided Odium lets you get shit faced always?#sure you can say you cannot have my pain when your family is alive and well#but when they’re all dead? puh lease.#anyway none of my immediate family is dead and I suspect I will be the first of the four of them to die#but I still get super drunk every night. because first and foremost I am a Failure#god god god I miss you odium champ Dalinar#I miss you Dalinar who never got better and stayed in his suffering hut forever like MEEEEEEEEEEEE#maybe nobody would tell me to rise each time a better man of Dalinar mental health wise was in the garbage disposal.#who knows!

Not me legitimately looking up flights to Ireland for a last minute near-mental-breakdown solotrip...
#i don't even know why i feel like i'm about to have a mental breakdown but yeah I feel like i'm gonna have one lol#so why not have it by literally running away for a couple days to ireland#i say as if i've ever taken a plane by myself and didn't only just got over most of my flying fears less than 2 years ago#and haven't only ridden a total of 7 flights in my entire life#and have a job providing me with disposable income#(though i do have plenty of savings but that's for paying the coop transfer fee for my late grandma's apartment)#(i haven't touched that amount in years because i needed it to stay. theoretically i could MAYBE spare a couple thousand)#(but i don't know the cost of the apt transfer and since i'm unemployed I don't know when i'd be able to recoup it)#(also i've applied to a billion jobs that could theoretically reach out to me at any time so that's another drawback)#i'm in a month-ish long break from therapy and it's not even been a week and i'm already on the verge of a meltdown this is great#well. kind of fitting. when i started with my most recent therapist i literally said in my first meeting#'i don't know what i'm doing with my life. i might run away to new zealand' and now when i meet my new one#it'll either be 'i'm 3 seconds away from booking a last minute trip to ireland' or 'got back from a last minute trip to ireland'#at least i'm consistent in my need to run away from my life without either therapy and/or a full time job to ground me

sometimes you read analysis that makes you want to tell the person to go watch Black Sails and then revise.
#when someone’s points are PRETTY solid - but you can tell they don’t know about Legitimacy (ENGLAND is going to give that to you?)#like. to be clear - Black Sails is NOT perfect by any means#but it provides SO many frameworks that are helpful for analyzing other media through#Legitimacy… The Power Of A Story… A Story Is True A Story Is Untrue… Perhaps The Trouble Was Going To Happen Anyway…#and every other show gets SO much more interesting when you have this analytical shorthand at your disposal#you also DESPERATELY want to tell these purely hypothetical meta-writers about Mimesis#(this would NOT fix them and would actually make them worse)#(but it would be WORTH IT)

Something something . . . the beginning of Dany's two marriages are marked by literal chains or collars made of gold being placed on her . . . something something both are symbolic of her being owned by her husbands. I'M GOING TO WRITE A WHOLE META ABOUT THIS SOON.
#;; did dany come to love drogo? yes and mainly because HE PROVIDED HER WITH SAFETY/SECURITY#;; but she was *sold* to him by her brother as an object...as a literal sex slave#;; and viserys made it perfectly clear that he didn't care how dany was treated by drogo and the dothraki. she was his THING.#;; the collar symbolizes that she was a thing to be owned by drogo#;; and the fact that dany is told that all of his slaves wear gold collars...and a gold collar was put on her before she was presented to#;; him???#;; and then the moment with chains being placed on her and hizdahr???#;; she is the 'breaker of chains' by then and suddenly she's IN CHAINS#;; dany in a way had to 'sell' herself to hizdahr as a part of the bargain for peace . . .it's for her people BUT STILL#;; it's meant to show that she has been 'tamed' and that she is now 'within his control'#;; and she truly is an object to hizdahr...an object of power and a thing that MUST be disposed of so that he can take her power#;; and return meereen to the old ways#;; additionally THAT CHAINS PART MUST HAVE BEEN HIDDEN FROM DANY BC SHE WOULD HAVE ***NEVER*** AGREED TO IT#;; IT MAKES THE IMAGE THAT MUCH STRONGER LIKE IN A 'look at how i have her under my control' WAY???#;; also dany was...miserable leading up to her second wedding. she didn't hold court. she told people to be happy for her.#;; and she CRIED on her wedding night😭 AND SHE JUST FELT!!! POWERLESS!! AND ALL OF THIS ADDED TO IT#♕░░ queen of the summer isles ( LUXX SPEAKING )#;; tbd.

“how did they not know they were talking to nazis!!!”
y’all. that’s the point. i promise you wouldn’t know either. in fact, many of you talk to nazis regularly and willfully ignore very obvious signs that they are nazis.
someone who has never met a Jewish person or knows nothing about the history of Zionism or Israel or the Diaspora (so, most goyim) probably thinks they are doing the right thing when they are told that they are attending a march against genocide. they (understandably) will not question the potential bigotry they might encounter espoused by people at that event, and they certainly won’t have the instinct to be on the lookout for fascists. and when well meaning but still uneducated people mingle with malicious bigots, they become targets for recruitment. thats. the. whole. point.
this is why i am BEGGING the goyische left to examine the role they play in the rise of radical antisemitism. nazis know they can find people who are primed to believe anything so long as it is framed as being morally correct or justified in far left spaces. and then all they have to do is 1. frame Jewish people as the morally corrupt opposition, and 2. make hating Jewish people sound like the morally superior opinion. extremism is extremism is extremism in every direction and it uses the exact same tactics every time.
so if you find yourself saying something that sounds a hell of a lot like far right rhetoric with some key words swapped out, think about it. propaganda is still propaganda, no matter who says it.
#use your brains#you have been primed with the same tactics whether you acknowledge it or not#moral purity and absolutism exist on the far left just as much as the far right#and thats all a radical bigot needs to get you on their side#the idea that the Oppressor Class™️ is subhuman by virtue of their oppressive actions#is structurally the same idea as thinking the Oppressed Class™️ is subhuman and inferior by virtue of their place in society#seeing other humans as disposable is not okay regardless of who they are#i know eat the rich is a lot catchier than sieze and redistribute the wealth of the disproportionately wealthy#or build social infrastructure that provides for peoples basic needs regardless of income#but what fucking good will murdering jeff bezos do#be honest with me#and yourself#and before someone says it#not all pro Palestine marches are hubs for antisemitic extremism#i will say i would appreciate if the organizers of these events did more to prevent the violent antisemitism that has occurred#because unfortunately it has not been a one off thing

A closer look at the national costs of living is needed to better understand costs across states. The average household in the United States spends $61,334 a year on expenses. (x)
That's barely enough to cover the average cost of living in the US. Just to cover existing. Not buying a house, a vehicle, trips to anywhere, fun expenses. It is in no way "rich" when it costs that much a year to live.
We ask your questions so you don’t have to! Submit your questions to have them posted anonymously as polls.
#thats not rich#thats lower-middle class#rich is lives comfortably has a house a vehicle and disposible income#65k does not provide that in the least
