[labyrinthofdreams]

Thinking about Hiyori again and how much more her character could've been explored and developed. For example, how did she survive those 20 years without anyone ever recognizing her seeing as she's the very image of her mother, and if some did recognize her, did they ever try to talk to her? were they on Oden's side? Were they killed by Danjiro by trying to give away who she is?

Another point is the men she robbed. Why those men? Did they do something to her specifically? Were they avid supporters of Orochi? Why those men in particular did she robber and what did she do with the money? Was it given to poorer areas of Wano or perhaps she endorsed the witching hour boy (danjiro) in his exploits?

And what about her relationship to Momo? Their reunion was so very rushed and it doesn't make sense to me that she'd want to keep away from Momo at first by fear that she would get in the way when she's the one who's been fighting the longest, albeit in her own way. And what were the thoughts on her head to see her brother still as a child? How shocking was it to see how suddenly he aged those 20 years in the blink of an eye? How will their relationship change after everything she's gone through, all the growth she's done over the years while Momo remained the same 8 years old child she probably didn't even remember very well?

And talking about Momo, was there ever resentment that he was sent to the future and didn't have to live through 20 years of Kaido while she was left behind? Was it their mother's choice to leave her behind or was it by chance? Did she ever resent her mother for it?

And how could there be no resentment at all when she had no qualms about giving her sword away to Zoro? Even if it was to get Shusui back, even if it was because Zoro saved her or she recognized him as powerful and a good person, it's not normal to give away the only thing she had left of her father that still connected her to him, and was, undoubtedly, a treasure of wano.

Shanks always seems so nostalgic for the past. Even though he could easily reach out to Luffy or the people of Wano, he doesn’t. He acts like someone so far removed from them, as if it’s not his place to intrude in their lives anymore.

He could say hi to Luffy, he could drop in on Momo and Hiyori to see how they’re doing now that Wano is liberated, but it’s like he’s forbidding himself from it. He creates this barrier between them and him. Why don’t you let yourself see the people you want to see, Shanks??

So imagine how happy he was to see Luffy and Buggy becoming Emperors alongside him. Finally he’s seeing his past resurface in the present. They’re no longer old memories he could only look back on, they’re a real part of his present now.

It would be too cruel after twenty plus years for Shanks and Buggy to never visit Wano again to see Momo, Hiyori, Nekomamushi and Inurashi :(

We never even got to see Buggy reunite with Crocus and Rayleigh even though he surely passed through where they’re at? We don’t get to see any happy reunions with Buggy and his old crew 😭

[danganronpasurvivoraskblog]

Umm... Mahiru, I think it's time for a reunion...

No, actually, I don't think it is.

Really? I mean...she's just in the other room. You're bound to run into her.

Then I just won't talk to her.

Seriously?

Yes, seriously! Look, I am sympathetic for what she had to go through, but 1) What Hiyori did was NOT my fault, even if her motives were based on her care for me.

And 2) Please don't tell me that you guys forgot that that girl did whatever she could to try and make my life a living hell from middle school up until her death. And for no reason other than the fact that I was the one with the MEANINGLESS TITLE and she wasn't!

I...have NOTHING...I want, nor need, to say to her. And frankly, I'd be surprised if she wanted to hear it either. I'm just waiting for her to go back to the hell that she crawled here from...!

...

...

...

...*sigh*

Sorry, that probably sounded crueler than it meant to.

I'm glad Fuyuhiko and Peko get another chance to hang out with her, and that Natsumi gets to meet her aunt...

But the more distance between me and her, the better.

It's okay Mahiru...We understand...We just...

We're worried about you. If there was ever a chance to air your grievances...

I know...Thank you...

I just had a dream. It's the continuation of the Noragami Ending.

Right after Yatori's reunion, after much persuasion, Yato finally takes Hiyori to Kofuku's house. She finally meets Yukine. Yukine was crying. The trio made a big hug. Everyone was happy. Hiyori traced her belongings that were left in Kofuku's place, filled with nostalgia (like her middle school's books, Yato's shrine, her old uniform). She couldn't believe it's been 10 years. After she managed to get a day-off from her job, she's going down the memory lane; tracing the path she took on the fateful day where she lost her life.

The story ends there. On the bottom page of the last page, it says it's a spin-off part 1 out of 6. A spin-off. I couldn't believe my eyes; Noragami will be continuing for another 6 months?? In my dream, I assume each story will be about Hiyori visiting the respective Gods' temple (Kofuku-Tenjin, Bishamon, Ebisu-Take) while they share their perspective about what happen right after Father was gone.

Then, I woke up. Sad. Just when it starts getting juicy, too. It feels surreal that it's not real, but I have a good time remembering it. Now that I'm awake, it's not a bad fanfic idea at all. The last two spin-offs will be about Yato, Yukine, and Hiyori's plan for the next 10(?) years.

Really not a bad idea at all. ☺️

[infiernogarde]

starter - @sunliteve

Despite her return to this place and aware that they aren't roommates anymore, Hikaru was found on a bench at a nearby park at Golden Ward which is her new ward to live in. Again, better than Fibonacci.

"Oh, hello Hiyori." She only sighed after missing a reunion chance with a dear friend from her world. She tried asking random people from her contacts to know if she was really here but no answer.

It was her fault for not being there last month which she was 'away from the stars'. Regretted, even.

"Sorry if you found me like this."

[copdog1234]

Okok, I'm trying to be chill about this and I mean maybe we'll get more in the extra volume releasing next month, but

That's it? Really????? Where's the drama, the angst, the tension? There was so much of it in the previous chapter. Why are we not getting the payoff for it???

Hiyori died for Yato. Yato saved her at the possible cost to himself. And we just. Timeskip? We just go yada yada to what happened in the last few years? We get a bunch of telling and zero showing of what happened????

And then it just abruptly ends with Hiyori remembering Yato in the most boring way possible? Nothing after that???

Like. Couldn't there have been just a touch more? Maybe Hiyori waking up feeling like she's missing something and us following her through that. Maybe Yato following her through that, too, and coming to terms with her not remembering him as maybe being better for her in the long run, anyway.

Or even without that a proper fucking reunion outside of them just. Looking at each other? Hiyori getting mad that Yato just let her forget. Yato apologizing and being kinda a sad boy about it. Or Yato explaining himself and being relieved that she remembers, but guilty for what happened. Or Yukine being there and happy she remembers and blaming Yato in kinda a joking way for letting her forget. Or just.

Something more than what we got.

I enjoyed the journey, but the ending is just as important to put attention into, and this was so anticlimactic and rushed that it sours some of the build up a bit for me.

[kurisus]

Chapter 106-2 thoughts

sorry this is LATE but this chapter did horrible things to my brain so let's all yell about it under the cut.

Daikoku continues to be the best character. And the Kofuku/Daikoku reunion I feel kinda got swept under the rug with everything else that happened but I'm glad they're back together. Even if the circumstances are less than ideal.

But before I move to talking about other reunions under less than ideal circumstances,,, I'm glad the shinki have rallied. It goes along well with the manga's message that shinki are responsible for shaping the morals of their god, and I would really hate to read a manga that ends with a massacre of the human race, besides.

On to the Father section, the meat of this chapter, I wonder why Kaya is nowhere to be found. Though her death was sudden, I suppose she didn't become a shinki nor an ayakashi, so Father's dimension can only create a facsimile. So was she satisfied with her life until that point? Or was she so afraid of Father she didn't want to become like him? The latter seems more likely to me.

The parallel between Father looking for Kaya to Yato wanting his shrine hurt me deeply. The difference, though, is that Father would stop at nothing to achieve his goals, whereas Yato had people to stop him and steer him. Like I speculated last month, too, I am not convinced that Father even believes in his own mission. It's more like he got drunk on power and enjoyed causing collateral damage, to me.

In any case, Yato was happy to settle and keep improving himself once he got his shrine, giving up his dreams of being the most-worshipped god since that wasn't really what he was after. Meanwhile, no amount of reparations could fix the damage Father has done, and unlike Yato, he wouldn't stop his behaviors even if Kaya was miraculously here. More likely, he'd try to force Yato and Hiiro back into their roles as his submissive children, and kill everyone who doesn't belong in his facade of a family portrait.

But Kaya is not here, Father has discovered that his will is not all-powerful, and now he's right back to where he started. Ruling over nothing.

The reminder of how Yato sees Izanami in the year 2023 was honestly so rude. And even more rude was that apparently Father knew Hiyori was here, and made an educated guess that Yato saw Izanami as her.

HERE'S HOW THE HIYORI SAKURA CONVERSATION CAN STILL WIN--

Okay so now we're at the Yatori reunion. I think "long-awaited" hardly covers this. It's been more than 5 years for us, and over a month in-universe, and even worse, Yato basically told Hiyori the next time he saw her he would have reincarnated. And now she sees him standing before her as a child. So. That's going well.

A couple things concern me about this. First of all, Hiyori's in poor condition, so something tells me she's going to believe he died and not find out the truth for quite some time. Which would break me beyond repair, so I hope that doesn't happen and I will not elaborate on what's in my head. Second, the reason she's like that at all is because of trash dad's interference. Yato still doesn't know about him setting wolves on her. He's going to quickly put two and two together, and on top of that, Yukine is also dissolving.

So, will Yato kill Father with his own two hands at long last? Will he revert to being an adult once he does? Will Hiyori realize the truth before they part ways forever? CAN WE HAVE A GOD DAMN BITTERSWEET ENDING? I'M GOING TO BE INCONSOLABLE IF WE DON'T.

I think. we will be fine. It's quite late in the game to kill any of the main characters now, but I never look forward to seeing how Adachitoka inevitably plans to hurt me. So with that in mind, I'll see you all next month for another round of screaming.

KIMI GA SHINE - THE MASTER ANALYSIS - Chapter 1-1: Prologue (SPOILERS FOR THE ENTIRE GAME)

So, after some deliberation, I’ve decided to do a daily blog thing where I play through the entirety of YTTD, go through every route and scene and also watch through the minisodes before then doing an analysis of everything within it…

What better place to start than the beginning, eh?

We begin the game off with an ominous silhouette asking us one simple question. “Do you know what a majority vote is?”. At the beginning of the game when there is barely any context, this scene serves as a helpful way to introduce the core concept of majority votes to us. Our friend, Shadow the Beaniehog over here gives us a simple demo of a majority vote with two options that are, ironically, positions regarding majority votes. There is not much to say about the dichotomy between Mr. Blue and Ms. Red in this scene other that they represent compliance and defiance to majority votes. Whoever we choose, the other one dies which foreshadows the concept of the Main Game very early on. A majority vote to choose who is killed. Compliance and defiance to majority votes are things we will discuss in other scenes, because they are themes that become important.

Beyond the apparent stuff we can glean from this scene, we can also analyse it from our present point of view in hindsight. This scene at the very beginning is meant to make you distrust the character we come to know as “Sou Hiyori” (the name taken on by the body of Shin Tsukimi) it makes you suspicious and wary of him from the get go and makes you primed for his betrayal and “nice persona” to fall. When in reality, this scene is being conveyed to Shin himself. Beyond this scene being just an introduction, we are literally seeing how the fear of death was being injected into Shin like poison, forcing him to take the “Sou Hiyori” persona and becoming the catalyst for 2/3 of the game’s conflict. This is also, technically, the first time we get to see Midori (or atleast a warped yet accurate perception of him, I’ll elaborate more when we actually get to Shin reflecting on this in 2-2). The shadow teasing and mocking the player is also such a good use of subverting expectations. It makes us think that Shin/Sou is going to be a prick (which he is, don’t get me wrong) but also, the reality is that Shin is the one that the shadow is mocking in a malicious tone, cornering him into a situation he can’t get out of.

It’s interesting how the first scene of the game we see ends up being about Shin when he’s not even protagonist. I’d say that our actual protagonist, Sara and Shin are both equally important and crucial to the story. But speaking of Sara…

Our next scene (or less of a scene, more of a 10 second moment) features the main girl, Sara Chidouin! This scene is another one meant to sow suspicion and distrust within us (even though it’s not aimed at anyone in particular) as two long arms reach out seemingly about to grab Sara. You can make various assumptions from this, that these arms belong to the kidnappers and this is the scene where Sara is being kidnapped to the Death Game, but it’s be wrong. With the benefit of hindsight, we know that this is Keiji reuniting with Sara during the Banquet after Ranmaru locked him in the lockers. It’s a small sliver of content that hints at the dynamic between Sara and Keiji, one of the most important dynamics in the game coming just before Sara and Joe’s dynamic and Sara and Shin/Sou’s dynamic. Again, a scene that comes off as frightening ends up being a moment of reunion and confidence.

These two scenes do help illustrate one of (what I see as) the themes of the game. Of trusting those who are in the same situation as you, as trying to connect with your fellow human beings. These scenes try to sow distrust but end up being subvertations from the truth (Shin’s real persona being masked by a defence of malice, Keiji being a supportive person to Sara despite what he does at the beginning of the game)

Let me know if you have any criticisms, or disagree with what I’m saying!

the sakura tree...

she's her right??? she's sakura????

[avidvampirehunter]

I am eating up all these Noragami theories and hot takes you've posted MMMMMMM DELICIOUS KEEP EM COMING 👏

How do you think it's going to end now that there's only 2 updates left?

Oh... Oh my... Thank you (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠❤

I've got no clue. I was thinking Bishamon would have showed up two chapters ago to help finish things but now it's hard to tell. But here's how it might work in my head if we only have forty pages to work with (and if I may indulge myself some slight Tsukiyomi vibes).

(NOTICE: There are some symbols in here like this (/) to denote separate plot paths.)

Pages 1-3: Yato asks Amateresu for help / tries to cut ties with Hiyori to send her back into her body.

Pages 4-5: Hiyori stops the process herself because she actually has all her memories / it works and she is saved but loses her memories.

Page 6. Big hug, maybe little kiss? / Hiyori unconscious but stable.

Page 7. Crafter big Mad™️

Page 8-9. Amateresu removal of Crafter / Bishamon Removal of Crafter / Izanami drags Crafter back to hell.

Page 10. Reunited hug / Yato grieves and Yukine comforts.

Page 11. Nora looking on and grieving, lost.

Page 12-14. Yato being acknowledged for his role in the whole ordeal with panels showing the fallout in other places (Tsukiyomi reveal maybe? Yato becoming known across Japan? Hired by Amateresu to cut their memories out?)

Page 15-17: Probably some Kazuma and Bishamon interaction here, not sure how intensive to the cast.

Page 18-20: Yato and Yukine (and Hiyori?) preparing for taking the next step / Yato scooping up Hiyori to "return her to her world."

-Final Chapter-

Page 1: Time skip?

Page 2-3: Kofuku's house hanging out (Nora is there as Kofuku's Shinki, seems to be adjusting well with Yukine).

Page 4: Také crashes party (again) to inform of Bishamon's official pardon from Heaven.

Page 5-6: Bishamon tearful and happy reunion with her family.

Page 7. Something about Ebisu here?

Page 8-9: Také overstays his welcome and final panel with Kiun where Také could take a lesson in humility from Yato.

Page 10-16: Hiyori Shinki stuff/ Yato still sad about Hiyori and maybe following her around?

Page 17-19: Big party, everyone is here, everyone is okay / Hiyori meets Yato again for the "first" time.

Page 20: "May you be blessed with good ties"

Not a fan of Hiyori losing her memories of the whole thing, but I imagine the ending will still be positive no matter what. :) Thanks for the ask and have a great day!

[kamimammy]

My noragami ending AU:

Yato revives Hiyori but she doesn't forget him,he tries to severe their connections but fail,as it turns out Hiyori is now half God and Yato his half human.

They rush her to the hospital,everyone notices Yato(clue him in on the human thing)

Heaven doesn't know what to do and call for a reunion where Amaterasu decides to let them live a long life has semi immortals.

Kofuku,Ebisu,Bishamon and Tenjin offer to protect them under their authority.

Yukine and Nora stay as their shinki(Nora as Hiyori) both decide that if Yato and Hiyori eventually have kids and their kids can name them they will be passed down to those kids.

Yato and Hiyori will live a long life,much longer than regular humans,maybe like 500 years but eventually will grow old and die.

They will be remembered,by their shinki,by their kids,grandkids,gran grandkids and all their extended family.

By the other gods who like to often talk about them.

And then many years in the future while Yukine and Nora remember them they see a boy and a girl playing,holding hands,they look a lot like them and so the story ends

[enswap]

Hi, would it be okay if I asked for some swap Ryuseitai Headcanons? I think they're pretty interesting

Yeah yeah!!

They have chaotic-good family reunion energy. Interpret as you want

Mao has Leo on a metaphorica leash all the time to keep him from spontaneously combusting. Nazuna tries to help.

Ryusetai juniors have like a sibling or cousin dynamic, Nazuna being the responsible/older one and Hiiro being the youngest, the will accidentally blow up a toaster one, and Hiyori being the rich cousin you forget you had

They're good friends with Akatsuki and Trickstar

[unavailable-fan]

As good time as any to think about an imaginary ES!! pjsk crossover Like every member of niigo is traumatized enough to fit right in And yep i'd love to see Mizuki meet pretty5 or even just Naru and Aira, i think they'd get along well + Naru's a good influence And Nagisa somehow meeting Kanade would look a lot like the weirdest family reunion, they're so similar Ena might fight Hiyori, but they're similar in this slightly agressive attitude, especially if their friends are involved And Mafuyu would just fit any group It would be fun, but i guess interacting with es members would inevitably lead to some conspiracy and just more trauma for these poor kids
