。:*•. ❁my fruits basket headcannons ❁ .•*:。
*Their family curse might be that their bodies transform into the 12+1 animals of the zodiac, but their family secret is like, a heavy drug addiction
*Shigure shoots up fentanyl (recreationally, for some reason he can't die), claims heroin makes him write better (genuinely can quit it anytime, he just doesn't)
*Ritzu is hung as shit, like, carries a footlong under that long dress of his, tried to pop your clit like a pimple; apologized
*Akito dosed Yuki with benzodiazepamines, he went into rehab by himself and met Jordan Peterson, that was his personal rehab
*Aya has the picture perfect cock, like it's in a dildo ad, goes to the urologist weekly, had a breakdown when it hurt him when he peed (it was just a small cold) and hasn't recovered since, tried to smoke tobacco flavored vapes because he wanted Shigure and Hari to accept him, they told him to kill himself
*Speaking of vapes, Hiro and Kisa vape in their free time. He likes the coke flavored vapes and she likes the grape soda, Kyo steals from them when they sleep and secretly smokes them on the roof, annoyed they never buy the orange flavored one (he hates the flavor but the color matches his hair so it's AWESOME)
*Kyo has a heavy coke addiction, his master is his coke dealer, the training was a tolerance test(he failed). The reason he's so on edge during S1? Withdrawals. The transformation is just his skin getting itchy :(
*Aya has a collection of cock rings, not out of pleasure, he just decorates them, and matches them with his fits.
Religiously takes pictures of them with the fit (like a BeReal situation). Tried making an instagram for it, but got banned. He has a high following on femboy sites. (is a power-top femboy)
*Hatsuharu and Rin do ketamine, she's heavily addicted and he just does it because she does, you know, sharing hobbiea and stuff.
*Kyo doesn't know where the clit is, but neither does Tohru.
She has never cum, thinks she did. Kyo thinks women cumming is a myth.
*Akito takes meth, Shigure said she's "too lame to try it" and got her addicted, he has no fucking remorse, thinks it's funny how she has hourly psychotic breaks lol. Hides the meth sometimes for funsies, and turns his phone off for days at a time (he's her only plug and she can't let anyone else know)
*Momiji has a 9 incher, but it's like...not even finger girth.
People get impressed when they hear the length, but they never ask about the width, so he thinks it's decent.
*Haru's left nut is comedically larger than his right one, makes him walk funny.
*The reason for Hiro's attitude is his absolute clitoris of a dick (they measured it once in his PE locker room and he got bullied for it).
*Kisa takes opioids, but she's still only addicted to vapes (lame ass).
*Momiji's heroic shroom dose made him gain the german accent in the new version, he's not even canonically german, just a brain fart.
*Kyo got his pubes dreaded once, Tohru called him a culture appropriator, the dreadlocks weren't intentional, he's just hairy as fuck.
*Haru never lets his patients get morphie'd up, stocks it up (for himself)
*Kyo watched that one South Park episode where they get high off cat piss, tries it to get a kick (during his tough times of withdrawal), smells like cat piss, placebo-d himself into thinking he's high as balls, Tohru called up an intervention. Instead of a psychiatrist, calls a psychic. Gets scammed out of the all inheritance money her mom left her (like $150).
Kyo kills the psychic with a bat (he just wanted to hit her, the withdrawal carried him away). He thinks the cat-piss is so potent, it makes him violent, he's just an asshole.
*Kyoko intentionally crashed the car on the curb and died because Tohru didn't tell her "be safe", just wanted to heavily guilt trip her for the rest of Tohru's life, succeeded.
*Shigure has an "Asian fetish", he, himself, is Asian.
*Kyo and Shigure have a heavy ass foot fetish, tried biting their partners' feet like cats and dogs go ham on their toe beans, it just hurt.
*If the human form's dick is shaved, the animal's dick is also shaved. Imagine seeing a tiny ass rat with an even tinier, shaved ballsack.
*Speaking of tiny cocks, some of the animals' cocks sizes is equivalent to the animal they are, regardless if they're human or transformed. Rin has a horse cock, is what I'm trying to say. She tries hiding it under those mini ass skirts. It's uncomfortable.
*Kagura does bath salts.
*Hiro huffs elementary-grade glue, does it the wrong way.
*Shigure is the only one who knows everyone does drugs (except Haru and Rin who do it together, and Akito who got Yuki addicted), is the family dealer. Only one who knows how to smoke (aka inhale) anything, when anyone catches him smoking weed/crack/meth/whatever mixture he makes that day, he gaslights them he doesn't know what the hell they're talking about as he blows smoke into their face. (his main argument is "you're high"). His high school girl thing is the fact that in his free time, he also deals drugs to them, and if they can't pay him in money, they pay him in other ways, but he doesn't do it out of pleasure, he's just chaotic as fuck. Anytime he gets the "other form of payment", he calls the girls' parents and snitches on them, (not about the drugs, just the payment, because he wants them to become addicted) and he says they lied about their age (even tho they're wearing full on high school uniforms). His cartel is his way of earning, fuck the writing. His secretary or whatever that bitch is, is his main distributor.
*Kisa's mutism is just bullshit; she doesn't open her mouth because it's always filled with vapor, and she can't let her mom find out.
*Rin neighs instead of moaning, gets super pumped up when they do cowgirl position, "I'm your cowgirl daddy" type of bullshit, turns Haru off in an instant, he can't really say shit, she still provides him with K.
*Hatori, Shigure and that third ponytail woman had LSD mixed with DMT, had a 10 hour trip that felt like 5 years, fully made up the Hatori's ex fiance character, it was actually just a rock.
*Tohru is stone cold sober, she just has an IQ of Theodore the Chipmunk. Thinks this is a daily occurrence.

Since you were talking about 100 gfs on ASooT I'm curious who your favorite and least favorite girl is
//Well, I'm up to date on the manga, and the current chapter we're on is 172, which means Usa-chan was the latest girl to get introduced. Depending on who we get after this, my opinions may change a bit.
//Currently though, I am dead certain on my favourite, and that's Ahko. She's adorable, I love her design and her personality, and every chapter she's in and everything I see of her makes me smile. Unironically, I love her lack of energy. Go girl, give us nothing!
//Second favorite is probably Karane, and I think it's really impressive that not only is she a likeable tsundere character, but she was one of the first girlfriends and to this day is still among the best the manga has to offer.
//As for my least favourite, that's INCREDIBLY tough because somehow we're on track to 100 different girlfriends, we're currently almost at 30, and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM IS LIKEABLE.
//But if I had to pick, I've narrowed it down to two. The first is Chiyo, and not because I dislike her personality or think she's annoying, in fact I think she's funny and cute. I don't know why because the manga does way wackier shit, but I kind of draw the line at the idea of dating your super underaged cousin. Yes, I know that Rentarou is only like, four years older than her, and yes I know that First-cousin marriage is allowed in Japan, but the whole relationship between Chiyo and Rentarou never sat right with me, especially with Uncle Hiro being a factor that I really don't like.
//(If I had a nickle for every fandom with a giant character-base that I was into having a character named Hiro that I'm absolutely disgusted by, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice)
//My other pick for a potential least favorite is Kishika for basically the complete reverse reason. Every girl has a gimmick to them, and Kishika reverting into baby mode whenever she's pampered is easily my least favorite/the one I find most annoying. Even Hahari's blatant pedophilia doesn't bother me too much because 100 Girlfriends already shatters your suspension of disbelief from it's concept alone, but weirdly, Kishika being babied turning her into a proverbial baby is something that has always grossed me the hell out for no real reason.
//But even Chiyo and Kishika are such fun and likeable characters that I don't really care, and my gripes with them are minor at best. Props to Nozawa and Nakamura for making such an endlessly enthralling cast of characters, my lord.

A seiyuu that always makes you laugh?
Please check out the original post here!
This will cover 6 of the post!
Hmm... I won't be counting anything that goes down in anime because those are funny usually because those depend on the writing (without good writing, a good performance doesn't amount to much). So I will only be counting instances where they are at events or other radio shows. With that being said, this one is kinda tough because a lot of female seiyuu are restricted from saying a lot of things due to societal expectations and management, but I think I managed to make the list fairly regardless.
Yoshitsugu Matsuoka
He definitely isn't funny on purpose some of the time, and most of his funny moments stem from him being uncomfortable or arguably having a bit of a social anxiety moment (same), but I feel like including him on this list is pretty fitting.
Yoko Hikasa
Not just any old hag. Not even just a legendary old hang, but The legendary old hag.
Yuuichirou Umehara
I'm not sure if he's funny on purpose either, but there's this one clip of him passing by someone and the person says to him "Do your best (on stage)!" and he just shouts back, "SHUT UP" which pretty much summarizes his character. He's also the epitome of that Squidward button sometimes where it just says, "I really wish I weren't here right now." Relatable. Same.
Natsuki Hanae
His gaming channel is full of really funny moments, but a lot of the enjoyment faded after the community subtitles were disabled. What if I want to be able to understand the video, YouTube?!
Haruka Tomatsu
She's like a bouncy ball that never stops. Even after giving birth, even the radio show host noted, "She's just as lively as before." She does these funny impressions (hard to explain) and has exposed Tsugu on how he was when they first recorded SAO. "He was slapping himself saying 'CALM DOWN. CALM DOWN.' And he was wearing his clothes the backwards and with the tag sticking out."
Tomokazu Sugita
Yeah, I think you know why he's here. I'm just going to put this here in case anyone wants to be scarred for life.
Rie Takahashi
She made me smile and laugh when I watched the recent RomaKira event. Just like the Kakushigoto event, she was on the listening end to some lines that made her blush and react a ton. It was sweet and funny.
Hiro Shimono
Bro, his chopping board laughter and his dynamic with Hanae and Tsugu are great (I'll never forget that random clip where they accidentally nearly blinded themselves with a light). Shout out to his manager who ate his ice cream!
Mikako Komatsu
I have been watching a lot more clips with her in it, and I always forget how funny she can be even off the screen. She's so lively and speaks her mind a lot (mostly regarding b00bs). Her and Eguchi have gotten into some pretty lively discussions about it (just want to add that being part of the itty bitty titty community isn't a bad thing). I've also been watching her with Tsuda and Kaji on the old K radio show where she sheds insight on what girls talk about to the unknowing. It gets quite crazy there too sometimes.
Yuuma Uchida
He has a really funny laugh, a lively personality, and he seems like such a fun person to be around.
Sally Amaki
Her Twitter page is honestly amazing. You read her English tweets are just like, "I'm in Spain but the s is silent" to her Japanese tweets which are like, "I will be appearing in this broadcast. I look forward to seeing you all there!" Honestly, the duality is amazing. She also gives lessons to both Japanese and English-speakers with the weirdest phrases that people probably won't and shouldn't use IRL.
Mamoru Miyano
The funny man himself. I think this explains itself.
Kana Hanazawa
She's really funny at events sometimes, and her screaming over how she got to marry her husband is both hilarious and incredibly sweet.

Hi 👋
I remember the couple ask game! And I realise that an image has the numbers cut-off xD I suppose that one is numbered 21-39 🤔
Anyway, here's the ask 😏
1, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 21, 22, 26, 28, 34, 37, 38 for all your couples 😘
Take your time 😁
This took me FOREVER to actually do but don't worry I didn't forget it hahaha. Here we go....
1- Who is the most affectionate?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ While they both actively show how much they love each other, I'd say Alfonse. He tends to be affectionate anytime, anywhere on any occasion while Lillias is more conservative and mindful of her surroundings though somestimes she also gets quite bold.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Zeus is a big teddy bear, admit it! Sure he acts tough and can be a little bit of an idiot, but he shows his love and affection...in his own way. Lyris on the other hand struggles with giving that sort of affection, it's foreign to her so she struggles with giving and receiving it. BUT PLEASE GIRL SHOWER HIM WITH MORE LOVES HE NEEDS IT 😭
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Their affection is napping together bruh. Okay jokes aside 🤣 it's Hiro. Though affection can be somewhat rare between this stubborn couple.
3- what is the most common arguements?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Here's the thing, those two rarely argue. Even when they do it's never anything too serious, they are too carefree at times. But that being said, lillias LOVES things to be organized, she can't stand otherwise so if Alfonse isn't being careful.... he'll meet her wrath.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Oh boy, this one is super silly but I love it. Their most common arguement....from WAAAY before they started dating: Napping spots. I kid you not, this silly couple fights over who naps where? On what time, at what occasion.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Everything. Just.... everything. Nothing too serious half the time but those two are like an old married couple.
6- What is the first thing that changes they realize they have feelings for each other?
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Loris becomes a LOT more conscious and she actually starts avoiding Hiro for a time, and at first she didn't want to acknowledge her feelings.
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ it's kinda similar with Alfonse, he is scared that he'll mess things up but at the same time he'd become more affectionate and try to spend more time with her.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Lyris is very quite snd unsociable by nature... so when she starts liking him, she unconsciously starts spending more and more time with him and would start talking and opening more to him.
7- Nicknames? If so how did they originate?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Lillies had the "queen" nickname which originated from good old Luca, mostly because she's beautiful and tends to do what's on her mind. Simply put she acts refined that's why she got the nickname. There's also a funny conversation that happened because of that nickname.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Loris and the good old "Midnight Rose." .... she... kicked some people's asses, that's how she got that nickname, Loris doesn't like bullying and she'd often fight against anyone who annoys her too much.
8- who worries the most?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Both worry.... A LOT. But it's Lillias who acts upon it more. She did experience loss after all.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Hiro is the one that worries more because Loris is reckless.... way too reckless, he knows she's strong and in no way underestimates her abilities but he still worries.
9- Who Remembers what the other one always orders in a restraunt?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Both of them would.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ It would be Hiro, he'd be first to notice what she likes and hates.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ surprisingly? Lyris.
10- Who initiates kisses?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ They are the affectionate couple so of course it would be both, however Alfonse imitates kisses more often.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Hiro... in the most unexpected of times.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Zeus is the more affectionate one so he'd be the one to initiates a kiss.
11- Who reaches for the other's hand first?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Lillias would do it to comfort Alfonse or just because she wants to.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Hiro likes to hold Loris' hand often.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Lyris would do it unconsciously whenever she is scared.... though that's rare. So Zeus is the one who does it more often.
16- Who tells their family/friends about their relationship first?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ I mean... thing is it becomes really OBVIOUS with Lillias and Alfonse, they weren't particularly trying to hide it.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Loris would probably to mention it and in a somehwat casual manner.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Zeus would start to definitely brag while Lyris is just more likely to keep things to herself.
17- What do their family/friends thinks of their relationship?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Well they were definitely.... by no means surpised. Those two have some similarities, Lillias actually reminded Elias and Klaus of Al earlier on when she first attended Gedonelune so when she met him and they started interacted with each other, it became pretty obvious they were falling in love with each other.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ The most unexpected couple of all.... but are they really unexpected? Who knows. Eitherway their friends were Definitely surpised when they started dating.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Again, It was obvious... though this time it was more because those two act like a married couple, everyone knew it would only be a matter of time.
21- Who whispers inappropriate things in the other's ears during inappropriate times?
I feel in this regard it's the boys that are most likely to do that. Simply because Lillias, Loris and Lyris are just more reserved when it comes to those types of things 🤔
Though it isn't the same for some other ocs *cough* Trissa *Cough*
22 - Who needs more assurance?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Considering what happened to Alfonse in the past, he'd be the one who needs more assurance and Lillias would give it to him without a second thought.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Definitely Lyris, I can't really talk in detail about it YET but let's just say Lyris' past makes it hard for her to trust people... so naturally a romantic relationship wouldn't be any different.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ I feel that... in this case it would be both, Hiro would occasionally need assurance but more often than not it would be Loris.
26 - Who asks the other on dates?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Both~ the two of them love spending time together after all.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Probably Zeus, even if Lyris wanted to go on a date she wouldn't actually say it.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Honestly... forget ask... Loris would be so pissed at Hiro for not trying to go on a date or anything and DRAG him to one. This stubborn couple 😔
28 - What would the other do while they are sick?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Care for each other, those two are both doctors so they'll just take care of each other if one of them gets sick.
As for the other two couples; I honestly see them spending the whole Night next to them and if they get dragged away by force they'd just be too worried about the other to do anything else. Except Lyris, she'd worry silently, she doesn't show her emotions often but that doesn't mean she doesn't care.
34- Who kills the spider?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Both wouldn't mind much, neither are really scared of spiders (at least I don't think Al is scared of spiders-)
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Lol... Now normally... in any other circumstance... I'd say both but.... Loris is actually scared of insects so.... Hiro will have to take this one. But he definitely teases her about it especially since it's so uncharacteristic of her to be scared of something like that.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ Lyris... an insect? Yeah she doesn't care she's just squish it, a spider? Sure thing, she'd kill it.
37 - Who sleeps on the couch when the other is angry?
Boys, the couch is to your right, here's a blanket and a cushion, enjoy your stay~
Jokes aside I'd wanna see the opposite happen lmao. Like imagine the female gets angry and then it skips to her sleeping on the couch instead- 🤣
38- Who tries to make up first after arguments?
☆ Alfonse x Lillias ☆ Both, though I'd feel Alfonse would be the first more often than not, simply because he doesn't want to lose Lillias, though if Lillias feels the argument was mostly her fault she wouldn't hesitate to apologize once she has calmed down.
☆ Zeus x Lyris ☆ More often than not, it's Zeus's fault but he'd never admit it DIRECTLY, he'd try to show it through actions though.
☆ Hiro x Loris ☆ Oh..... boy, the stubborn couple..... after what seems like forever.... Both would very hesitantly apologize to each other than it's back as if nothing has happened.

i've been streaming THH every Friday on Twitch with my Manager Bunny, who is Japanese (like from Japan) (i say this so much it's almost a meme in itself, but i always want to make it clear to those who follow me for Silly Text Post Edits and don't know anything about me). we talk Localization stuff all the time.
anyway: Danganronpa has some funny glitches in trans/local, i agree. those are definitely the ones i highlight the most in DR1. on the other hand, we were just coming off of the Rice Ball Donut Era, so i forgive it. i think if it was localized today they'd probably have kept at least Idol for Sayaka, maybe even Doujin Author for Hifumi, but getting westerners to understand "gyaru" in any capacity is...tough. "gyaru" definitely tells you WAY more about Junko though. it packs a whole punch. i have more opinions on it but i won't get into that here!
Taka's i have mixed feelings about. Hiro's kind of eliminates the idea that he's (iirc) actually supposed to be kind of a shaman, so there's kind of some comedy removed there. good old Toki's backstory is just funny overall because of the way Romance Novels are considered total trash in the West
some good THH localizations IMO:
Hifumi's way of speaking in Japanese i'm told is "stereotypical samurai" which is often associated with "stereotypical weeb," though he has a sort of "UWU" voice. this was localized well and performed well by Lucien Dodge (Keebs! Yuma Kokohead!) as a proper, pseudo-academic professor-like mode (with an UWU tenor still)
Sakura talks like a princess in JP, and this is presented in her deliberate, careful dialogue in EN, though it removes a bit of comedy when she gets mad
Genocide Jack's nicknames for people (Cherry for Chihiro etc) are great and made my Manager Bunny laugh (she had only played unofficial translations before we played it together)
Manager Bunny also says our Celeste is better hands down, no contest
i'm biased and this is Super Minor but i love Hina as a nickname for Aoi. to me as a Westerner it tells us a lot about her athletic background (though the intent was probably to give Western people an "easier" name to say)
other game notes:
danganronpa 2 has some hilarious and charming translation glitches (Akane calling money "Benjamins", Hajime not being able to read stuff that isn't in English, Nagito pointing out what things mean in Japanese, Fuyuhiko spelling out his name for us)
UDG was the pinnacle of localization in DR (IMO)
and as much as everyone disliked Summer Camp as a game, its scenes were wonderfully localized - the person who came up with Miu's nicknames for DR1/2/UDG characters deserves the US presidency ("Bigcockoyeah" for Byakuya kills me EVERY SINGLE TIME)
if you want the real messed up one, i'm told it's v3. Manager says it's downright awful and undercuts a ton of characters, as well as making Angie...like that
apologies for hijacking your post with my autism again OP but you always post about awesome stuff that Hits My Hyperfixations!
I complained earlier about Byakuya's needlessly wordy title of Ultimate Heir Wealth-Inheriting Loinfruit, but I actually need to take a moment to complain about title localizations in DR1 some more.
Toko is the Ultimate Writing Prodigy.
Why not just say, "Ultimate Writer"? The word Prodigy isn't doing shit in that title. All Ultimates are prodigies. The whole concept of Ultimates or Super High-School Levels is to accredit child prodigies.
At least it's better than her Japanese title, the SHSL Literary Girl. Really? What even is that? Hifumi gets to be SHSL Doujin Author, and Toko's over here saddled with fucking Literary Girl. I'd be screaming down everyone's throat in every conversation too if I was the class literary girl.
Hina's Ultimate Swimming Pro title is fine but again I'm not sure why they didn't just say Swimmer?
Sayaka and Junko's title switches at least make a lot of sense. Sayaka is the SHSL Idol and Junko's the SHSL Gyaru, both of which are Japanese cultural references that could be lost on American audiences.
Idols and pop stars are close enough conceptually that it's an easy jump to make. Gyaru's a bit trickier to translate since so much of gyaru culture is about over-the-top westernized girly fashion; Fake tans and blonde dye jobs and long painted fake nails and the like. Over in the west that's just, like, fashion. So making her Ultimate Fashionista loses some of the intended artificiality of her persona but gets the point across.
There isn't really a Westernized concept for "purposefully appropriating a Western fashion aesthetic in order to stand out from everyone else". So the SHSL Gyaru was always doomed to be a little bit lost in translation.
Similar with Taka. Taka's the SHSL Public Morals Committee Member, which is another Japanese cultural reference. A public morals committee is a disciplinary organization made up of students whose job is to police the behavior of the other students.
"Ultimate Moral Compass" kinda works, but makes it sound like he's more just. Like. Incorruptibly Lawful Good, rather than the specific thing that he represents. Personally, I probably would have gone with Ultimate Hall Monitor.
Ultimate Clairvoyant is a suitable localization for SHSL Fortune Teller, if lacking a bit of specificity. SHSL Gang Leader became Ultimate Biker Gang Leader because while the bikes are fairly standard for Japanese gangs (to my understanding), there are different kinds of American gangs so the clarifier is helpful.

Dandelions | Shino Aburame X GNReader
Masterlist | Part 1 / Part 2
| self indulgent, if anyone has any good Shino fics, send em my way please, reader is Kiba’s older sibling
Word Count: 1384
Tumblr media
Your mother, Tsume, had forced your younger brother to invite his teammates over for dinner, the young man complaining the whole time before they had even arrived at the designated time. He didn’t want to risk being embarrassed by his sister, Hana, or by you if you would even be there to begin with. Which, as far as he was concerned, you were still out on your mission with your own hound and Akamaru’s older brother, Akahiro.
Kiba sighs with his head in hands, Akamaru sleeping in his jacket as his mother and older sister go on and on about many embarrassing stories and how you would practically torment your younger brother. Hana’s own companions were sleeping soundly beneath the dining table much to Hinata's amusement. “Mom! Tell Hana to knock it off! Both of you! It’s not funny!”
Hinata giggles and covers her mouth, finding the similarities between the three to be quite amusing especially when Hana stands to scold the man for talking to their mother that way.
“Ah, I sure do miss being home…” You laugh as you step in the door, your large black hound, Akahiro slipping in behind you. Silence falls over the room and Hinata looks at you surprised, noticing the scrapes on your face and arms as you had just returned a few days early. Much to her and Shino’s surprise, Kiba is the one jumping up to greet you, throwing his arms around you and showing them just how much of a caring younger brother he really was for the middle sibling that is you. Even if you two butted heads, you were still his best friend.
You laugh a bit and pat his head like you would a dog’s, ruffling his hair playfully. “I sure missed you too, little brother.” You look past him at his friends and clear your throat, “Are you gonna introduce me to your friends or what?”
As he suddenly remembers who’s there, he quickly steps back and puts on his tough guy act again, clearing his throat. “Right,” he leads the way in and you plop down into the empty seat beside Shino, slouching in the chair and letting out a breath of relief when your aching feet finally catch a break. “That’s Shino and this is Hinata.”
You hum and look at all the food laid out before you, not showing too much interest in meeting them as your stomach growls. “Yeah, nice to meet you- Ow!” You wince and bring a hand to the back of your head following your mother’s hit. With one look from her, you sigh, putting on your best manners as you properly greet your brother’s teammates. “I’m Y/N, the middle child. Nice to meet you. Just got back from a mission and I’m starving, am I allowed to eat now?”
“I’ve heard so much about you!” Hinata is the only one between the two to speak up, “Go ahead, don’t let us keep you from enjoying your dinner. I’m sure you’re hungry. What was your mission? What ranking was it?”
“B-rank. Just some basic tracking. Old Akahiro is the best for that!” You laugh and point at your hound who had taken an interest in the man beside you, pressing his snout against the man’s arm. “Hiro, back off would ya! Give the man some space.”
Shino seemed tense at how close the hound was, he was practically vibrating from his bugs, unsure of the hound’s intentions. His gaze flickers up to yours, though you can’t really tell where he’s looking purely because of his glasses. You cringe a bit when Akahiro drools on the man’s leg and you stand up, ordering the dog outside if he wasn’t going to listen to you.
When Akahiro disappears from your sight, Akamaru curiously manages to follow after him, you apologize and pass a few napkins to Kiba’s friend. Shino thanks you quietly before speaking up, “Were you seen by the medical team before coming here?”
The table falls silent and you narrow your eyes, “Of course I was!” Your mother had locked onto you, very much intrigued by the challenge from the man beside you. Hana sits back in her chair and crosses her arms, waiting for the shit show of a scolding you were definitely going to get from your mother.
He shakes his head, letting out a soft huff of disapproval, as if he could tell that you were lying. “I was only wondering. You’ve been favoring your left shoulder since you walked in the door. You winced in pain when Kiba hugged you. You haven’t once lifted your left hand higher than a few inches and you haven’t even moved your arm. I would go as far as to guess that you have some kind of shoulder injury, perhaps a dislocation.”
How did he know this? How had he paid so much attention? You had planned on being seen! Of course you did! You just wanted some of your mom’s good old home cooked dinner. “Why you little brat!”
At the sound of your full name, you tense up and are immediately grabbed by your right shoulder, your mom dragging you to the door so she could force you to the hospital herself to have your shoulder set. Shino laughs, dipping his mouth behind the collar of his jacket at the sight of you being handled and talked to like a child, taking a great deal of joy following your dog’s drool drenching his pants leg.
On your way out the door, you turn your head, yelling at the man when you heard him laughing, reminding him that you had enhanced hearing and that you’d track him down for revenge now that you had his scent too.
Kiba gawks and looks over at Shino, “Dude, you’re so dead.”
By the time you’d returned home with your mom, Hana had packed the remainder of dinner away and was ready to be heated back up for you upon your arrival home. She was in the yard training with her three canines and Kiba with Akamura, his friends watching the two siblings goat it, showing off their different skills.
Akahiro had been awaiting your return, your heart swelling at the sight of your hound laying in a patch of dandelions. Your arm was now in a sling and when Akahiro sees you, he whines in disapproval. “I’m alright, Hiro. No need to worry about me.” You sit beside him, lowering yourself carefully, sighing as you rake your good hand through his fur. “I’ll be good as new in no time! I promise!”
Akahiro felt guilty that you were hurt in the first place, this much you know. He was radiating guilt and it was almost as if you could smell it on him. He should have and could have been there to protect you and he wasn’t.
Shino watches your interaction quietly, Hinata picking up on this as well as a single bug flies from his jacket and lands on the back of your canine. You glance back at it curiously before you climb to your feet, thinking nothing of it and not knowing it was sent over to listen in a little better by Shino himself.
As you head inside to get something to eat, Akahiro following after you, you pause in front of the pair. You attempt to meet Shino’s gaze but you don’t even know if he’s looking at you at this point. “Just you wait until my arm heals. I’ll come and kick your ass for outing me like that!”
Shino peers at you over his glasses and your eyes widen in surprise, your mouth opening and closing before you stay silent waiting for him to finally say something. “I’ll be waiting then. I never back down from a challenge.” And just like that his eyes are hidden away again.
You huff turning to Akahiro who you can only hope looks at least a little bit threatening. You frown, notice lumps of the dandelions stuck in his fur. “You’re supposed to look menacing and you look like a flower prince right now, Hiro!” You sigh in disappointment, shaking your head and heading into the house once more, Shino watching your every move until you’re out of his line of sight.

Just some rambles:
So basically, I finished the entire first season. I don’t have much to add accept that I like dissecting the first season the most.
For the manga, I’m on the part Daichi starts to appear but my ADHD brain can’t handle much at once so I took a break on it to focus on the anime. It’s been neat though, and it honestly reminds me of PokeSpe’s beginnings a bit!!
I found a thread discussing Beyblade Rising though, and am absolutely FASCINATED by the events — new things, critiques both good and bad, our old characters re-appearing. On the thread, they linked Takao Aoki’s official website with the promotional art… I can’t stress enough how much I love love love seeing cute art of the characters in the manga style!!! Aaaaaa
(( Let me just insert more fangirling over the cute promotional art of our characters! ))
For G-Rev, some parts are super super blurry in my mind (or I flat-out dunno what happens) bc I referenced a lot of what other Bakuten Shoot fans mentioned of events that caught my interest + watched episodes according to events and battles I like. So I have the basic outlines: Stuff like the tag-team style tournaments, BEGA with antagonists like Brooklyn, Garland, Ming Ming etc., how our main team split up, Hiro’s appearance, nerfed characters (the White Tigers, Tala etc.), big battles (mainly ones where Kai or Tyson are involved), and so on.
I look forward to watching G-Rev thoroughly in chronological order though, but getting through V-Force has been tough.
Which brings me to V-Force!!
I think a lot of criticism on it is a bit exaggerated, as it can be enjoyable too. But I can understand how story-wise, it’s seen as the weakest of all 3 seasons. It’s not bad to me, per say. It’s just super super slow where I’m at. I’m struggling to get myself motivated enough to get through it. Which I don’t fully blame, as the anime writers had to come up with filler or decrease the pace of things so the manga could catch up. It just feels like plot progression is much much slower than the 1st season.
Also watching Hilary/Hiromi and Tyson/Takao bicker feels like hell :/. It’s super repetitive ahahah. Also IDK if it’s just the dub being wonky, but Tyson’s personality isn’t pleasant for the most part (the whole issue with the “world champion” fame getting to his head). But IK the English dub made Tyson super arrogant versus sub Takao who has moments of humility and kindness, so again, it could just be a dub issue.
I admittedly wasn’t a huge huge fan of Hilary’s introduction, and she doesn’t add a lot to the story. She seemed in comparison pretty chill though in G-Rev! Maybe a character that mellows out later on?
G-Rev has my favorite art style of the 3 seasons, and fits the series in the best IMO. But I dissent with the common opinion here on the V-Force art style bc I think the characters look really cute! I do agree though that they were drawn to look too young.
Also the dub changes/censorship in this season sucks. I’ve heard from sub watchers on key lines we miss out on and saw on YouTube funny scenes they cut. The 1st season’s dub could be hilarious and goofy (err, hilariously goofy) but the V-Force dub cuts out so many funny scenes.
On key lines, there’s moments like when Kai gets out of the butler’s car driving him to his dorm. In the sub, they briefly mention his father (which is a curious question since it’s a wonder what the anime version of Susumu is like??). And the butler guy basically goes ‘You shouldn’t be so cold to your dad. You barely said anything to him’ — which indicates Kai’s relationship to his dad is rocky in the anime too. But in the dub they change it to the butler asking him about his Dranzer blade not being in the luggage. And ofc, the change in event when Wyatt goes mad instead of the kids who Team Psychic are involved with dying, and Kai living with the guilt of his friend’s death.
But I do find some of the attempts to censor kinda hilarious. Like in Episode 15, where they send out Jerry (IDK the sub name???) to test out the cyber bit beast. Now basically it explodes and the kids die, so the Team Psychic lackies in black suits rush out, grab the kid, and drive away. It’s obvious Jerry dies but the dub adds the lines “Are you okay kid?” “I think so” as they carry him limply. The censorship cover up there was so bad it was a bit funny.
Tumblr media
Also, obligatory Max appreciation from the episode I’m on! ٩(。•́‿•̀。)۶
Just because he’s so adorable! And bc I’ve been thinking how he’s super under-appreciated compared to Takao, Kai, and Rei T~T. He’s got to be my favorite after Kai ngl.
That is all.

winter days: underneath the tree
Tumblr media
☁️a/n☁️ this made my heart very warm to write even though i pulled an all-nighter to get it done because my time-management has gone to shit after finals. requested by @sachirou-senpai​. thank you, ellie, for giving me a reason to bring back my boys. i’ve missed ‘summer on you’ so much. this can be read as a stand-alone or as a spin off of ending b, my fave. either way, merry christmas to my babes who celebrate! i have one more christmas fic for tmr and then i’m hiding away to plan + write an smau.

☁️masterlist☁️
Tumblr media
shivering slightly, you unlock the door to the rather spacious apartment you shared with your four boyfriends later into the evening than you would’ve liked. 
yes, four boyfriends. whom you love very much and are loved by in return.
living with four towering hunks has it’s ups and downs, but you wouldn’t trade tooru’s extensive skin care regiment sprawled across the bathroom counter; hajime’s bag of protein powder that he always forgets to put away; issei’s boots that you always tripped over when you came through the front door; or takahiro’s costco-sized box of cream puffs in the freezer that he insisted he would finish by the end of the month, almost half a year ago, for the world.
you made sure to stomp off the snow stuck on your boots before entering the building, but you couldn’t help but sigh at the warmth that greets you once you toe them off.
“ahhh,” you think. “thank goodness tooru convinced us to invest in heated floors.” another perk of having four boyfriends was that two of them brought in enough bank for you to seriously consider becoming their cute little housewife. snorting, you shake your head, though the idea of prancing around in a maid outfit to tease them seemed very appealing. “maybe we should make hiro dress up and clean the house since he still hasn’t found a new job yet.” 
“what’s so funny, sweets?” speak of the devil. makki’s head pops out from the bathroom nearest to the front door, steam rolling out and droplets falling from his hair, signifying that he had just taken a hot shower. wordlessly, you stare at him, lost in thought imagining the water caressing his toned body, but a second later, he gets a better look at you and laughs. “you look like a wet dog!” your glare loses some of its edge when he takes in your own damp strands. 
“did someone say something about a dog?” tooru comes bounding round the corner, and you could’ve sworn he drooped a little when he realized it was just you in the hallway sans dog. turning your icy glance on the setter, you open your mouth to complain about how mean the two of them were being to you when your prince charming comes in to save the day.
“you two, stop bullying the poor girl and let her take a warm bath before she gets sick!” iwa chides as he helps you unbundle the layers that protected you from the snow and sharp winds of the winter. pressing a sweet kiss to your forehead and promising to pick out comfy clothes for you, he ushers you into your spacious en suite where a steaming tub full of rose petals awaits you. hajime chuckles at the starry eyes you give him, heart warming at the love and appreciation shining clear as day on your face, before he leaves to grab a clean pair of underwear, one of issei’s t-shirts, and a pair of his own sweats, knowing you much prefer to wear their clothes at home.
submerged in the bath, you exhale contentedly, eyelids fluttering shut as you enjoy the product of iwa’s consideration and foresight. letting the stress of work and the chill of the outdoors melt from you, you stay in the water until it cools and your fingers prune. a lone thought of how much more you would’ve enjoyed the bath if the boys had joined you flits through your mind, but you jolt when you open your eyes and find issei sitting on the counter with a towel and your robe in his lap, some of the water sloshing over the side of the tub. 
“oh thank god, i was scared you fell asleep and would drown or choke on a rose petal.” you giggle while he wraps you up in your robe before gently toweling your hair dry. “you can’t leave me to deal with the three of them alone.” 
rolling your eyes, you retort easily, “if anything, i’d feel bad about leaving hajime to deal with the three of you alone. the poor man puts up with enough from his team, he doesn’t need you guys ganging up on him, too.”
“well i’ll have you know, sometimes he really enjoys us ganging up on him.” his cheeky quip paired with his wiggling eyebrows earns him a smack on the chest but regardless, you let him sweep you up into his arms and drop you on the massive bed the five of you shared. “get dressed, babygirl. as much as i’d love to spend more time with you naked, i gotta help haji finish dinner.” with a quick peck on your lips, issei leaves you to do just as he said. 
emerging revitalized and relaxed, your mouth waters at the smell of homemade curry, distracted enough to not notice tooru’s arms wrapping around your shoulders and waist. 
“hey, cutie, i’ve missed you,” he sings, face snuggled into the junction of your shoulder and neck. you spin around in his hold to slip your arms around his slim torso, relishing his firm lines against your soft curves. 
“‘ve missed you too, tooru.” and you really did, grateful that all of you were able to take time off work and he was able to come home a week before the holidays, giving the five of you a whole month to spend together before he had to jet back to argentina for his next bout of training and practice games.
“hell yea! group hug!” makki comes running towards you guys, only for you to twist out of his reach at the last second, sending him straight into the sofa behind you. “oof, that was cold, y/n.”
you stick your tongue out at the strawberry boy. “yea, well that’s what you get for laughing at me when i got home. sucker.” still entangled in tooru’s embrace, you feel his body shake with mirth and bite the inside of your cheek to prevent yourself from dissolving into giggles when you see a pout take over hiro’s pretty face.
“dinner’s ready,” comes iwa’s call, beckoning the three of you into the kitchen before you could antagonize each other some more. once you all got your servings of curry, you settle into your proclaimed seats on the large sofa, your body comically small compared to their tall frames dwarfing the cushions. noting the way tooru threw his long legs over iwa’s and how mattsun and makki leaned against each other as they ate, you fold your legs to tuck your feet under takahiro’s thigh and dig in to your meal with some trashy reality show lighting up the tv screen, completely certain that the warmth in your chest was from the company of your loved ones more so than the piping hot potatoes in your stomach.
during breakfast the next day, you blearily rub the sleep out of your eyes before taking a sip of your coffee, a satisfied “ahhh” escaping your parted lips as you lean against the kitchen counter. slowly peeling your eyelids open, you notice all of their gazes were focused on you. “yes? can i help you?” you ask amusedly, awake now that caffeine had be introduced to your tired body.
“how are you still so gorgeous in the morning?” you blink at the dreamy look on iwa’s face propped up in his hands with his elbows on the surface of the island. looking around, you see the other three matching the athletic trainer’s pose and expression next to him. thinking over your messy bedhead, mysteriously stained pajamas, and almost impressively dark eyebags, you want to scoff, but the unfairly handsome men giving you their undivided attention despite all of that (“because of all of that, y/n-chan,” tooru would argue) make you blush instead.
“you’re one to talk, haji,” you opt to remark, hoping to divert their focus from you and your rosy cheeks. “and don’t look at me like that,” your pointed finger swinging wildly between the four of them like the needle of a compass. “you already know you guys are way outta my league, you don’t need me to tell you that.” with one last flourish, you wave your hand dismissively before grabbing your mug with both hands, palms warming against the ceramic.
“as wrong as you are, you can’t blame us for wanting to hear the love of our lives compliment us first thing in the morning as we admire her natural beauty,” mattsun grins once he sees the success his words have at deepening the flush on your face. tooru nods gravely in agreement, but it’s makki’s one-two combo of a wink and an air kiss that breaks you. you roll your bottom lip between your teeth to stifle a laugh but release it immediately when the playful atmosphere takes a heady turn. clearing your throat, you pay no heed to their hungry expressions, knowing full well that they all noticed your little action and how they would react to it.
“a-anyways,” you stutter, “i’m gonna go get ready ‘cause i have things to do today so-” you try to slip by, leaving your empty cup in the sink, only to get caught in your tracks by hiro’s long arms. 
“ah, ah, ah, princess. and where do you think you’re going?” soon enough, you find yourself surrounded by your smoking hot boyfriends and heat up in anticipation of their next moves. 
“this so isn’t fair,” you complain aloud, though you were just as eager as they were to get you out of your worn sleep clothes. 
“tough shit, babygirl. guess you’re just gonna have to add four more things to your to-do list, huh?” 
naturally, you leave your errands for some day later in the week when you’re able to walk properly again.
the opportunity comes when you rise earlier than the rest of them, a rare occasion where you found yourself graced with the freedom of sleeping on the outside instead of being sandwiched in the middle of the bed. tiptoeing about, you brush your teeth and get dressed, somehow managing to not wake any of the sleeping beauties. you scribble little love-filled messages on post-it notes and stick them around your apartment on your way out, but not without one last soft smile in the direction of the bedroom, the sight of the four of them cuddled together through the door left ajar renewing your motivation to accomplish your tasks and come home sooner. 
with your laptop bag in tow, you set out for your first destination, settling into a corner booth at the coffee shop with a full cup and a pastry. once you finish your breakfast, you pull out your laptop and get to work, scouring the internet for the perfect gifts for your lovably imperfect partners. you rack your brain for any recollection of any moment where they would’ve let a potential present slip into conversation and light up when you come across volleyball print pajama pants. you check the availability of the sizes you needed and upon realizing that they were all in stock and would be delivered before christmas, you place your order without a moment’s hesitation. satisfied with your progress, you pull up the animal shelter’s hours before heading out of the cafe, the barista’s greetings and the jingling bells echoing behind you. 
by the time you return home, it’s late in the afternoon and you’re greeted by a wall of warm bodies as soon as you step through the front door. 
“where’ve you been, babe?” once again, takahiro is the first to meet your return, but this time he plants a sweet kiss on your lips with his long fingers encircling your waist after his inquiry. 
“oh, you know,” you sigh, dazed from the saccharine embrace. “out and about.”
“busy day? hope it was productive.” you nuzzle into tooru’s chest, feeling the timbre of his voice through your skin, and nod.
“as a matter of fact, it was.” their eyes soften at the proud grin stretched across your face. but your grumbling stomach just had to ruin the moment, making the three of you stare at each other before bursting out in chuckles.
“you skipped lunch?” oiks asks, wrapping each arm around yours and hiro’s waists and guiding you into the kitchen. you rub the back of your neck sheepishly.
“i guess so? i didn’t really notice i was hungry until now.”
“good thing we saved your favorite from that chinese place down the street for you,” mattsun comes up behind you and lands a kiss on the crown of your head. you beam gratefully up at him and skip over to the fridge to retrieve the takeout.
“welcome home, love,” iwaizumi emerges from the bathroom to complete the set and gives you a once over. “you look tired.”
“gee thanks, hajime.” he rolls his eyes playfully at you while you wait for your food to heat up in the microwave.
“what time did you get up this morning?” 
“uhhh,” you start, mouth full. at iwa’s stern glare, you swallow before answering, “seven-ish? earlier than i would’ve like for a vacation day but it was worth it.”
“hm, well i’m glad you had a good day at least.” you shuffle over to kiss his cheek before dropping yourself on top of where tooru and hiro were cuddling on the sofa, eyes drifting around the room to take in the holiday decorations adorning the space.
“thanks, haji. but you’re right, i am sleepy.” suppressing a yawn, you lean back against the broad chests behind you and tuck back into the paper container. “can we take a nap once i’m done?”
“sure thing, babygirl.” the innocent smile mattsun sends your way turns mischievous with his added comment. “we really tuckered ourselves out while you were gone.” you nearly choke but makki’s hand thumping your back helps you dislodge whatever food got caught in your throat. iwa shakes his head and looks to the side in an attempt to hide his face, but the reddening tips of his ears give him away. meanwhile, oikawa catches your eye and winks.
“how else did you suppose we keep ourselves occupied when our baby wasn’t home?” you get up to toss your now empty container, shaking your head as you go. 
“i’m glad to see you at least got the christmas tree up before going at it. god, you’re all insatiable.”
“i mean, it’s hard not to be in this relationship,” hajime grumbles.
“aww, iwa,” makki pushes his lips into an overexaggerated pout. “you make me hard, too.” full-bellied chortles escape the four of you, ignoring iwaizumi’s indignant huffs.
“whatever,” comes his miffed reply, but you know he takes all your antics in stride. soon enough, he returns to the living room with a stack of blankets and finds you and issei added to the pile of limbs tooru and hiro founded. somehow, hajime situates himself to fit perfectly in your cuddle fest, blankets sprawled about to keep you warm.
one last yawn leaves your mouth before you mutter a sleepy, “night, guys. love you,” barely registering the quiet “love you”s you get in return as you drift off, the lights adorning your christmas tree twinkling above you.
christmas day, you wake up before the others again, this time more than willing to feign sleep and revel in the warmth of your shared bed. luckily, you don’t have to wait long for your boys to stir. sitting up, you stretch your arms above you head and begin to climb out of bed only to be caught by the wrist and dragged back down.
“haji, please,” you draw out. “we can finally open the presents under the tree!”
“i don’t care, it’s too early for you to leave me, princess.” you hum as he pulls you closer to him, revisiting your mental note that iwa is much more openly (and selfishly) affectionate in the mornings. 
“oi, the rest of us are still here you know.” face buried against tooru’s back, mattsun’s muffled complaint gets hajime to loosen his hold on you. 
“yea, yea,” he props himself up on his elbow to lean over you and kisses the former middle blocker’s temple. “unfortunately.”
“so mean, iwa-chan,” oikawa pipes up, stretching his arm across you to caress your boyfriend’s toned arm before lacing his fingers with makki’s. the pink haired man himself, still half-asleep, squeezes tooru’s hand before sitting up.
“hey, wait. it’s christmas, isn’t it?” takahiro’s question reminds you of the package you received a couple days prior, prompting you to spring out of bed before one of them could reel you back in. the four watch you rifle through the closet and resurface with the pajama pants you ordered.
“merry christmas!” you cry excitedly, tossing each boy their respective pair and eagerly awaiting their reactions. “they’re matching pj’s! look, i got one for myself, too.” thankful that you chose to go to bed in just one of iwa’s godzilla t-shirts and underwear last night, you rush to slip on your volleyball print pants. the boys take in your childlike joy, chests tightening at how precious you are. “hurry up, i want you to try them on so we can match!” at your insistence, they roll out of bed and dutifully don your gifts. 
“oh these are actually really soft,” tooru murmurs thoughtfully, fingering the fabric on his thigh.
“right?” you pipe up, nearly bouncing off the walls. “i wanted to do something to commemorate our first christmas together in this apartment and i thought these were really cute since volleyball is what brought us together in the first place.” eyes meet each other as you all reminisce that special summer, grateful that you stayed close despite your individual journeys after graduation.
suddenly, the doorbell ringing catches your attention. a brief glance at the clock on the bedside table tells you it’s much later in the morning than you though, but you’re quick to answer the door.
“who could that be?” the boys are left wondering, wandering out into the living room in time to see you wave goodbye to whoever it was with a large gift-wrapped box sitting on the floor next to you. 
“babe? who was it?” tooru is the first to ask the question on all of their minds. 
“oh, just my best friend. they wanted to drop this off on their way to their parents’ house.” you gingerly pick up the box and bring it to where your boys were waiting for you. “go ahead!”
“go ahead?” hajime parrots. 
“yea! open it!”
“it’s not for you?” takahiro ponders.
“well yes and no. c’mon just open it already!” you’re bouncing on the balls of your feet at this point. tooru finally takes the initiative to remove the lid of the box, eyes widening when he sees what it hid.
“oh my gosh,” he breathes. the other three nearly knock heads with how quickly they lean over the opening.
“is that-?” a furry little head pops up over the edge of the box, round eyes peering up at the four of them.
“a dog! yes!” you squeal. “he’s a shelter dog!”
“he is?” hiro is in awe, slowly reaching out to cradle the little guy in his arms.
“i met him the other day when i woke up early and ran errands without you guys. isn’t he just the cutest?” big hands dwarf the small pooch as they gently pet his head and stroke his fur.
“does he have a name?” tooru has the good sense to ask. 
“mhm, the lady at the shelter said his previous owner named him ponyo.”
“ponyo…” issei whispered, eyes shining. 
“i know we’re nowhere near ready to start thinking about kids,” you start, the topic of the conversation instantly drawing their attention. tooru even ignored ponyo’s little tongue lapping at his fingers. “but i thought we could use an addition to our family.” 
“y/n, princess, we obviously all love him already, but we’re busy with work- well, most of us are. who’s gonna take care of him?” hajime questions, almost reluctantly.
“i mean, hiro is home all the time since he’s still unemployed (“i said i was looking, damn!”), but i actually got promoted so my schedule is way more flexible and i can work from home most of the time.” your voice trails off bashfully, but they give you no time to be embarrassed, swallowing you up in a huge hug. 
“why didn’t you say anything sooner, baby? we’re so proud of you!” now you know how the dog felt being smothered by their affection, not that it was anything new for you.
“uhh, surprise?”
“fuck yea, surprise! god, you’re incredible. lemme make a list of things we’ll need to get for ponyo once the stores reopen tomorrow.”
“actually…”
“you didn’t.”
“i did, with help from my best friend.” going into the lowest cupboards in the kitchen, you show off the bag of dog food and water and food bowls you bought soon after visiting the shelter. “his bed and crate are in the other closet by the washroom.”
“how did we get so lucky?” takahiro asks aloud, making you blush as the others nod in sync, all of them blown away by your thoughtfulness.
“this is nothing. i just wanted to show you guys how much i love you.” you play with your fingers, a little overwhelmed now that the initial excitement has worn off. “oh wait!”
“there’s more?” tooru asks, shocked.
“but wait, there’s more!” mattsun and makki chime in simultaneously, making you laugh as you retrieve the last present. you hop over to where tooru was sitting on the sofa with ponyo on his lap, scooping the dog up and locking the two of you in the bathroom. a couple minutes later, you open the door to let ponyo scurry over to his dads, who coo softly once they see him come around the sofa.
“when did you have time to do this?”
“my pants were a little long, so i hemmed them one night after you guys passed out on the sofa watching your old volleyball matches. i kinda guessed ponyo’s measurements based on standard info i found on the internet, but it fits perfectly so i’m glad!” looking at the little sweater you made for your new family member out of the extra fabric from your pj pants, you couldn’t stop the pleased grin that broke out on your face. “now even ponyo matches with us!”
while your gaze was trained on the tiny dog that was exploring his new home, theirs were stuck on you, your resemblance with a proud mother struck something in them, giving them thoughts of you with their children. yes, children. but for now they shoved those images to the backs of their minds, meeting each other’s stares to confirm they were all in silent agreement.
“we’re gonna make breakfast, you just sit there ‘n look pretty while you watch ponyo, yea?” issei announces before pulling you into a searing kiss as he walks by. 
“not that that’s hard for you,” iwa tags on, kissing your cheek and ruffling your hair following mattsun into the kitchen.
“but i’m always hard for you.” you yelp when hiro playfully slaps your ass, flipping him off as he trails after the other two with a loud hoot. tooru comes up behind you and rubs your sore cheek, spinning you around so that you were face to face.
“why’d you do this to me, y/n-chan?” you meet his frown with a confused look of your own. “now it’s gonna be even harder for me to go back to argentina.”
“oh, tooru,” you wrap your arms around his neck, standing on your tiptoes to bring him close. “you have the next few weeks to spend with us and our new baby.” as if he knew you were talking about him, ponyo pads over to sit by your feet, tail wagging. oikawa sighs melodramatically.
“a few weeks is nothing compared to the months i’ll be gone!” 
“oi, shittykawa, you better not be complaining after everything this morning,” hajime hollers from the kitchen.
“love you, too, iwa-chan!” tooru calls back instinctively then he looks back down at you, his eyes giving away how much leaving will hurt him and it nearly makes you tear up with him.
“tooru, baby, it sucks every time you leave us, but you’re following your dreams and doing what you love. and we want to support you all the way, even if it means doing so from across the world. but with my new work schedule, i’ll be able to call or text you pretty much whenever. and just think how much sweeter it’ll be the next time you do come home to us. so don’t be too sad, okay, my love? we’ll all be here waiting for you.” 
as the last words leave your lips, tooru has you pulled flush against him, arms wrapped tight around your body. his face was hidden, but you could feel the sobs in hot breaths against your shoulder. you guided him over to the sofa and let him cry, petting his hair and peppering kisses on his tear-streaked face until he tired himself out. 
issei, hajime, and takahiro come out of the kitchen with stacks of pancakes and all the fixings, setting them down on the coffee table in front of you once they see tooru snoozing in your lap. iwa picks ponyo up before he could get a bite of your breakfast while you gently shake your boyfriend awake. mattsun and makki set up ponyo’s crate and bedding, leaving him with a toy to keep him occupied while the five of you filled up your plates.
sitting in the living room of the apartment you shared with your four boyfriends on christmas day, stuffing your face with fruit and whipped cream topped pancakes that they made, in matching pajamas with your new rescue dog scampering about, you couldn’t ask for a better gift underneath the tree.

Your families with Kirishima, Bakugou, Midoriya, and Todoroki
Eijirou Kirishima x Reader
Katsuki Bakugou x Reader
Izuku Midoriya x Reader
Shoto Todoroki x Reader
Katsuki Bakugou
Tumblr media
You and Katsuki have a daughter and are trying for another!
Your daughter, Akari, is just as rambunctious as her father!
Just a bit less angry. Just a bit 🤏🏾
But she definitely has his attitude!
And his red eyes ❤❤❤
Unlike Katsuki, she openly adores her mother tho and looks up to you
"Mama! I wanna be just like you!"
"What about me?!"
"I said Mama, not Daddy 😒"
Can't even glare at her because he can't find it in his heart.
Oh, and she's just as excited for having another addition to the family as you are!
"Daddy, give Mommy a baby already."
Of course she has no idea what giving mommy a baby really means 😏
"Oi, I'm tryin' my best here, kid."
"Try harder."
"... Alright."
Oh you're in for it.
But no matter how much she goes back and forth with him, she really loves him.
And he loves her back.
They practically do everything together.
Brush their teeth, eat, clean.
He even helps train her quirk.
And at night, he holds her and mumbles the sweetest things to her.
"You make Daddy's life so much brighter, you know that?"
Overall, he loves you guys and can't wait to knock you up again 😈
Izuku Midoriyau
Tumblr media
You and Izuku have a son and are actually expecting!
Your son, Hiro, is the most adorable thing!
He has Izuku's freckles 🥺
And he's extremely shy, usually stays by you guys.
When you go out, he's holding both of your hands.
When he meets new people, he hides behind you.
Has a tendency to hide his face in your necks 😂
"Hiro, c'mon, say hi to the nice woman."
"No thank you Mommy, I'm okay."
You can't help but laugh as Izuku apologizes.
Hiro's actually a very curious child tho, especially about the bump in mommy's tummy.
"How did that happen, Mommy?"
"Well.. Me and Daddy decided to give you a baby sister remember? So she's resting in there until she's ready to come out. She's shy like you."
He gives your stomach a very serious stare before hugging it.
Both you and Izuku just melt and he gets a picture.
"M' gonna protect you, okay baby sis?"
You damn near fainted from the cuteness.
Izuku definitely tells him made up hero stories at night.
You've got him writing some stories in his book.
"Oh, yeah! I wanted to read them to Hiro!"
🥰🥰🥰
Izuku is excited for the new baby and loves all of you very much.
"Daddy will always love you guys, okay Hiro?"
"Mkay! And I can protect Mommy and baby sis, just you someday!"
Shoto Todoroki
Tumblr media
You and Shoto have twins, a boy and a girl.
Yuki, your daughter, and Natsuhiko, your son.
Yuki has white hair and Natsuhiko has red.
Those two are troublemakers when you two aren't looking.
"Who put a frog on your teacher's desk?"
Yuki pouts her lips. "It wasn't us, Mommy."
Natsuhiko nods and grabs your hand.
Shoto doesn't even need to give a stern look, he just raises an eyebrow and they're confessing.
Of course, under your instruction, they apologize to their teacher.
You and Shoto also apologize.
Thankfully, the teacher actually thought it was funny.
You and Shoto definitely talk to them at home.
But they're such good children at home 🥰
They do their chores, they're very polite.
Little Angels 😇
Yuki is definitely the more mischief one, her brother being the quieter one who goes along for the ride.
But despite the trouble they get in, Sho loves them dearly.
He definitely plays games with them.
"I think I'm finally starting to understand, Candy Land. The objective is to be the first to reach the castle, yes?"
"Daddy, we've been playing for an hour and you won almost every time."
He simply moves his piece forward.
But they love you guys too!
They're always trying to make you proud!
"Look, Mommy! Daddy! We made you necklaces! They protect you from getting hurt by bad guys!"
Macaroni necklace has been added to Shoto's hero costume.
Lord help the fool who tries either breaking or taking it off.
They won't get to, just know that.
Eijirou Kirishima
Tumblr media
Three kids and one on the way!
This is a family man!
Two daughters named Akane (older) and Kimmi (middle), and a son Akio (youngest for now).
They love you both, but you can tell Eijirou is their favorite.
When he comes home, they run to him and he scoops them up into a bear hug.
"Hey! What are the baby boulders up to?" 🥺
They all laugh, relishing in their father's embrace and you take pictures.
Don't get me wrong, like I said they love you too!
Akio will walk over while you sit on the couch and cuddle you.
Now Akane wants to cuddle.
Now Kimmi wants to cuddle.
And now Eijirou wants to cuddle.
They love cooking with you, grinning with their shark-like teeth as you let them assist you.
They obsess over your tummy!
And once they know their baby bro is in there?
Best believe they get territorial when strangers touch your stomach!
Akane bared her sharp ass teeth once and the old lady backed off 😭🤚🏾
The girls drag him and Akio to play dress up.
Akio goes "This is girly though"
And Eijirou gave him a fatherly talk about how tough being a woman can be
Its still not Akio's cup of tea but his respect for girls go up 📈📈📈
Both Kimmi and Akane are mischievous and love teasing Akio.
Not in a bad way, in a "Our baby bro is so cute!" way
And he always finds himself blushing, trying to run away!
All in all, this is a family that protects each other to the end!

Big Hero 6 The Series: It could have been better
Hello, friends. Today, I will be analyzing a TV series based on a movie that I fell in love with for its colourful themes, deep plot, compelling characters, great CGI and memorable messages. Before I get into it, I want to take a moment to say that I have quit doing videos. They are too big of a pain in the petunia to make and I write better than I speak, so I will stick to writing essays, reviews and more. Anyway, onto the analysis.
All I can say about Big Hero 6 the series is that it had a great concept, it presented some great ideas and tried hard to be a cartoon of the times, but it could have and should have been a lot better. The show’s downfall all centers around trying too hard to be kid friendly which makes the shame sting all the more because Big Hero 6 was already kid friendly even with its dark themes, sharp edges and intelligent writing. If anything, even the brightest kid friendly cartoons (Steven Universe, She-Ra, etc.) had those things and actually benefitted from them. By needlessly trying too hard, character development got scrapped, the edges were all smoothed out, storytelling was subpar, the humour was too silly and the executive meddling in the end produced a dismal final season. However, I don’t want this analysis to be one lengthy negative rant about how awful the series was because in its defense, awful is an unfair word. It did have potential and ideas which are worth carrying over to a reboot that I hope will be done someday in the future. Also, we should root for a reboot because Big Hero 6 would not be the first story that needs it before striking gold. Just look at how many times Spider-Man was rebooted in film before MCU found the version that worked. Anyway, I will list all the things in Big Hero 6 that could have been better in my opinion;
Tumblr media
1- Go easy on the laughs and be more generous with the action. - I love adding comedy to my own writing because I think a good sense of humour makes everything better, but Big Hero 6 is not a stand up comedy routine. It is a superhero story where we expect action, suspense and life or death situations that are to be taken seriously first. The comedy should be for relief and with the right timing. Also, the chibi cutscenes and having characters act like fools aren’t funny. Ren and Stimpy are the exception not the standard and their way of making you laugh doesn’t fit an action series. In a show as big as Big Hero 6, real life physics and danger matters.
Tumblr media
2- Make the villains menacing and gritty. - I admit that after having a movie villain like Yokai who was the stuff of nightmares, it is going to be a challenging act to follow, but it was obvious that the writers were trying especially with some villains who could have easily gone into some dark relatable territory. For example, Mr. Sparkles (the gentleman in the photo above) embodies social media and Internet personalities. Right off the bat, you have a long list of things which embody the dark side of that like scams, fraud, using social media to dox or harass, driving people to suicide, online predators, the Internet personalities being very depressed people in real life, and much more horrifying things. When you stop and look at it, Mr. Sparkles even looks like the Joker which hints how dark and scary he could have been if the stops were removed. The same goes for enemies like Hardlight who embodies online gaming, Liv with cloning, Obake an amoral and insane scientist, and Trina and Noodle Burger Boy (more on him later) being evil robots. Globby especially should have been painted and written in much darker colours rather being played off for laughs because he has many parallels with Clay Face. The only two villains who I can say were supposed to be campy, charming and comical were Baron Von Steamer and Supersonic Sue because they were a satire of the Adam West style villains.
Tumblr media
The rest of them needed to be dark and threatening including Mr. Sparkles. In fact, I would love a rebooted version of Mr. Sparkles who gives me the heebie-jeebies. Going back to Noodle Burger Boy, I must confess that I was actually excited when I heard that he was going to be the main villain of the final season because I thought he was going to fulfill his master’s final wish and as a reminder, Noodle Burger Boy was based on a super robot for military purposes.
Tumblr media
It would have been fantastic if Noodle Burger Boy was upgraded into a full military war machine with a new threatening look. For that, I think all of the villains deserve to be rebooted and have their full potential unlocked for better or for worse.
Tumblr media
3- A show about geniuses merits genius level art quality. - I am usually forgiving towards art styles, but in the case of Big Hero 6, the oversimplified style with minimal details and lack of textures did not suit the show. The characters blend in with the background which makes them look flat and the special effects were extremely dulled down. I also know for a fact that Disney can do a lot better than this because I saw how superbly Tangled the Series was drawn.
Tumblr media
You can see and almost feel the difference in quality, the number of layers and level of detail between the two styles. I think there was no excuse Big Hero 6 was not done in the same style and at the same level if not better as Tangled.
Tumblr media
3- Don’t dumb down or flanderize amazing characters. - I absolutely detest it when characters are flanderized because it makes them one dimensional and grating. For example, Go Go is tough as nails and extremely calm, but she is not cold or hesitant towards helping her friends. She doesn’t require very special episodes for us to know that. If anything, the movie version of Go Go reminded me a lot of Garnet in how she deconstructed the broody character. She isn’t cold or emotionless. Just calm and mature. Another good example was how Honey Lemon was rewritten to be overly positive to the point of toxicity, naïve and oblivious with a juvenile obsession with stickers. Then you have poor Fred who was rewritten to be an incompetent fool. The spark that makes Big Hero 6 shine is that they are a team of geniuses meaning they are all intelligent. Even Fred is genius in his own way just not a scientific one. He has a vivid imagination, he is resourceful and can get himself out of tight spots. Please, don’t turn characters into dummies especially if their intelligence is a part of them. It doesn’t make them better or funnier. It ruins them.
Tumblr media
4- Tadashi needs closure and honour. - I am all for Hiro making peace with the loss of his brother, but Tadashi is to the Big Hero 6 team what Uncle Ben was to Spider-Man. His loss was the catalyst if not the reason. He should never be forgotten. Moreover, there was never any true closure to him especially with the possibility that he may still be alive up in the air. After all, like Callaghan, his body was never found and it turned out that Callaghan was still alive.
Tumblr media
With that said, who is to say that Tadashi was not secretly still alive and just hiding or being hidden? This is something that Disney really needed to clear up if not for the fans, then at least as a service to such an important character. Never just forget about them.
Tumblr media
5- The format can only be episodic with a deep plots, continuity and character development. - Random episodes with a mere monster of the day is an outdated format which doesn’t fit Big Hero 6′s modern and bright setting. In seasons 1 and 2, when the episodes were plot heavy with character development, the series shined brightest. It also helped move the story along, but with the final season, plot was removed, closure was abandoned or poorly written if any was given, and characters were disallowed from growing. A good example at how plot and character development could have made this series and its characters better was the relationship between Hiro and Megan. Would it have truly survived or would they have broken up?
Tumblr media
Would Richardson Mole have eventually lost interest in his obsession with besting and bullying Fred or would his obsession consume him compelling him to become a super villain? I do see quite a few similarities between Mole and Reverse Flash.
Tumblr media
Then you have Karmi who is in my opinion, the biggest wild card of the bunch. She was intentionally introduced as an arrogant, prickly and unlikable yet complex character who rivaled Hiro bitterly.
Tumblr media
Yet had a huge crush on his alter ego and as time went on, started to grow up and even form a friendship with Hiro. What would have happened further down the road with her? Would she have become a super hero herself? Or maybe even another love interest for Hiro kind of like how Black Cat is for Spider-Man?
Tumblr media
Is Obake really gone?
Tumblr media
What does the future hold Diana (Liv’s clone), Liv herself or the Sycorax the genetics company?
Tumblr media
Is Alistair Krei going to become an ally to Big Hero 6 or an antagonist? There is also the issue at how little we know about the other Big Hero 6 characters other than Fred, Hiro and Baymax. What are Honey Lemon, Wasabi and Go Go’s backstories? These questions matter and while not every mystery can be solved, leaving none of them solved is lazy writing.
Tumblr media
6- Executives, kindly stay out of the writing and any other part of the creative process. - I’m sorry, execs, but there is no nice way to say it. History itself proves that every time executives got involved in the creative process of any media, it got worse not better. Leave the writing to the creative team and the execs should only handle the legal stuff. Please. We understand that TV is a business, but writing itself is not. It is an art which you just don’t have a talent for. Let the creative people do their thing with the freedom necessary and you do your thing, deal? Deal.
Tumblr media
7- Focus on Hiro and Baymax. - The are the main characters so keep them at the heart of the series no matter what happens around them. That is all I can say.
And that sums up all the things that could have made Big Hero 6 the series better, but this is all just my opinion. What is yours?
PS: I am well aware that the Big Hero 6 series is being retconned because a new series called Baymax is in the works as well as the long awaited sequel to the first movie. I am looking forward to both with an open mind. PPS: I also am aware that some people liked this show the way it was including the art style and I am cool with that. An analysis for art that includes cartoons is never right or wrong. It is solely based on opinion. I may have thought this series could have been better, but there are people who make arguments that it could have been worse.

“ seijoh 3rd years as boyfriends ”
oikawa toru x reader, iwaizumi hajime x reader, matsukawa issei x reader and hanamaki takahiro x reader
genre: fluff
Tumblr media
oikawa
would be the type of boyfriend to send you those lovey dovey good morning texts 
even if they were cheesy as hell you’d know they were sincere 
he’d always be there to reassure you when you felt insecure 
this includes when you’re insecure about all his fan girls constantly giving him attention 
tight hugs 
this boy may be scrawny but I know he’d squeeze the life outa you
you’d bully him along with iwa-chan 
he’d text you at ungodly hours with new alien conspiracy theories 
would take you to instagram-able places for dates 
definitely would initiate the cuddles 
would force you to wear his jersey on game days 
his love language is words of affirmation 100% and will always remind you how much he loves you
“Hurry up shittykawa, you were suppose to be warming up five minutes ago!” Iwaizumi scolded him in the hallway of the recreational center that the volleyball tournament was being held at.  Oikawa stuck his tongue out at his childhood best friend. 
“So mean iwa-chan, can’t you see I’m with n/n-chan.” He called you by the nickname only he called you. Your cheeks begin to heat up as Iwaizumi had caught you mid kiss. The ace rolled his eyes and went back to join the rest of the team. 
“Where were we? Oh right, my good luck kisses!” He snickered, waiting for you to get up on your tiptoes to plant a handful of kisses on his lips. 
“You heard him shittykawa, you’re game is starting soon!” You denied him, dragging him towards the court he was to be playing on. 
“Not you too!” He whined in an over dramatic fashion yet he couldn’t help but think how cute you looked dragging him, his hoodie draping over your figure perfectly. 
Tumblr media
iwaizumi
tries to act tough and manly but is really a big ole baby 
wouldn’t be much for pda except for the occasional hand holding and waist grabbing 
in private tho... this man would cling onto you like no tomorrow
loves when you touch/ play with his hair--its softer than it looks 
forces you to watch his godzilla movies but in return you can make him watch whatever you want
his love language is definitely physical touch 
he loves idle touches, just feeling your skin against his 
walks you home and waits for you to step into your house before leaving 
great big bears hugs, no one can tell me other wise 
hits the ball extra hard when he knows you’re watching 
always wants to know about how your day’s been 
You cuddled up to your boyfriend’s side, as his eyes are glued to the screen; as if someone was going to kill him if he looked away. Yawning slightly you lay your head in his lap as you grab his hand to play with his fingers. 
You’d lost interest in the plot, finding Hajime’s reactions much more enjoyable. Watching his expressions change from excited to sad to anxious was enough to make you laugh. 
“What’s so funny babe?” He looked down at you, finally taking his eyes off the movie. You looked up at him as his larger hand was still in yours. 
“You’re really cute Hajime. Did you know that?” You giggled, making his face blush a deep shade of red before he snapped his head away from your gaze.
You sat up, forcing him to lock eyes with you, laughing again at the sight of such a macho man being so flustered just by words. 
“Don’t act like it’s a bad thing.” You leaned forward and kissed him softly on his lips, “you’re a softy deep down.”
Iwaizumi’s heart went into overload. He brought you into his arms, in a bone-crushing and laid back down on the couch to finish the movie.
Tumblr media
matsukawa
definition of dating your best friend 
enjoys listening to you talk about your day 
would send you really funny memes in the middle of class just to see you get red as you try to hold into your laughter 
your laughter is like music to his ears 
loves pda, as long as you’re okay with it 
would take you to mcdonalds anytime of the day, just say the words 
besides memes and reaction pics, his camera roll would be filled with stupid pictures of you 
surprisingly good at cuddling 
place things high out of your reach just so you can ask him to get it down for you 
silly pet names; like that are overly absurd
he would get involved with your interests/ hobbies or a sport you play  
Class was just so boring, especially with your teacher being a rude old fart. You sat near the front and as your sensei wrote something down on the chalkboard you looked behind to catch a glance at your boyfriend, Issei. 
He was looking at his phone as per usual, probably messaging his friend Makki in the class next to you. His dark eyebrows had been raised, his lips tugging into a half smile and you could tell he was up to something. 
On your desk, your phone buzzed and you could only attribute it to your boyfriend sending you a message. Of course you were right and went to check it out. 
matt-sunshine: *attachment one photo* this could be us but you playin 
You looked back at him hesitantly but Issei had gone back to paying attention to the lecture. Biting your lips, you opened the picture your boyfriend had sent and you then proceeded to pray that you’d be able to keep your mouth shut. 
The picture in question had been two feet mimicking holding hands, except it was toes. For some reason that picture with what Issei had captioned it had sent you over the top. You let a loud, ugly laugh slip past your lips.
As you excepted, your teacher had issued you three days of after school detention for that. You glarred at your boyfriend, upset with him getting you in trouble but it was soon forgiven after he offered to take you out to eat after your detention. 
Tumblr media
hanamaki
similar to mattsun: he’d be your best friend and lover 
when you’re feeling down he’ll do/ say funny thing to make you feel better 
you dye each other's hair 
lots of teasing on both ends 
this boy is always hyping you up no matter the occasion 
is mutual to pda, it all depends on how you feel about it 
loves to kiss all your ticklish spots just to see you giggle 
convos with him would be like you saying something funny, then makki following it up with something even more funny and so forth until you’re both about to pee your pants 
no matter what’s happening, he’s got a meme for it
religiously quotes the ‘ily bitchhh, and i ain’t ever gonna stop loving you, bitchhh’ vine when talking to you 
You sat in Takahiro’s room, waiting for him to come back up with snacks for your video game session, something you and him took very seriously. You leaned back in the bean bag, thinking about what the loser’s punishment would be and right as an idea popped into your head, your boyfriend walked in. 
He placed the candies, chips and sodas on the small coffee table and passed you the Wii remote. 
“So my precious booger,” cue the disgusting nickname he swore on his grandfather’s grave was suppose to be endearing, “what will the looser have to do this time?” Takahiro flopped down next to you. 
Pressing your lips together, cautiously bringing up what you had in mind.  “Loser has to dye their hair hmm... green!” he laughed and agreed to the idea. 
The two of your then wiped off the cutesy faces before starting the game: Mario Kart. You looked at him, a competitive glaze coating his eyes. You knew for sure you didn’t want to loose. 
After a grueling final race, the winners slides popped up and to your surpirse you were the winner. 
Makki threw his control in disbelief, “it’s rigged, I swear!” He huffed, crossing his arms but you only got up in his face, teasing him with your victory. 
“Now you’re going to be the booger-head, Hiro!” He rolled his eyes, gentally hitting your face with a pillow before standing up. 
“Where are you going?” You wondered, drinking some of the soda he’d offered you earlier. 
“That hair dye won’t buy itself.”

So like I had an idea...! Could I request Kaito, Yasuhiro, Mondo, Nagito, And Hajime with a s/o who's the Ultimate Paranormal Investigator? 🥺👉👈 Idk just feel like a lot could be done with this! 😁
ok when I first saw this request I was wondering...what the hell is a paranormal investigator?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
then I finally realized that it’s actually just ghost hunting.
mod mikan
Kaito, Yasuhiro, Mondo, Hajime & Nagito with a paranormal investigator s/o
rest in piece, kaito.
Kaito Momota
oh...no.
he is not a fan of ghosts.
I mean just remember chapter 3 and the class trial for it???
not.a.fan.
Too bad you took him to where you were asked to go for fun adventures.
prepare yourself kaito
P r e p a r e
so when you brought him inside, he was already freaked out on the scary sight.
“Kaito? are you alright? you look like your scared of the sight?”
of course kaito makes an excuse, which in reality he wants to go home...oh well.
then you turned around and showed him the spot you began your talent.
sadly to kaito’s hope of all of the ghosts being gone.
a ghost was behind you.
then he screamed.
you know...that really funny scream?!
this, of course.
then he clings on to you.
god kaito, now you just scared your s/o
and the ghost was a old friend of theirs...
big f
at the end you made a note not bringing kaito to ghost adventures.
Yasuhiro Hagakure
Woah woah woah.
let’s pump it up.
my kpop stan came out I’m so sorry
once again he is n o t a fan of the occult.
and somehow and in someway you brought him to your ghost hunting adventures.
didn’t end up well.
his crystal ball went missing for some reason
“A ghost took it, maybe”
and you made him more freaked out.
luckily you were friends with a ghosts and brought back the crystal ball.
He totally predicted that (no he didn’t)
quite dry, sorry hiro stans :(
Mondo Owada
Time to put on the tough guy act.
since...that’s literally a small explanation of his character to me, I suppose.
moving on, you (also somehow) took him to a house full of ghosts.
he’s totally not intimidated by the structure.
(also he said he would actually fight a ghost.)
Come on we all know he will
i mean... “hey demons it your friend...y/n.”
dry also im so sorry
Hajime Hinata
I mean no, but at the same time sure?
he’s totally not intended to you know...wake the ghosts up.
too bad he actually did.
now you have to stop your boyfriend from getting possed by ghosts.
hahahhhahahahhahahhahahahah
My time now!!
BOSS BATTLE MUSIC HERE I COME
GOSH Y/N IS HAVING A ENTIRE BOSS BATTLE RIGHT NOW HOLY
Hajime is wondering how he ended up with his s/o having an entire boss battle with multiple ghosts.
Nagito Komenda
Ahhahahahahhahahahaahahaahahah
oh it’s nothing just ignore this.
Moving on you took nagito to the place you found your lovely talent.
i mean nagito was in because your talent was full of hope! (Somehow)
and since nagito talent was bad luck
Like hajimes you had to save your boyfriend.
by what you may ask?
Ahahhahahahahahbabahabnahaha
BOSS BATTLES
... you know what I’m saying right?
you have to figure out yourself...y’know?
A/N: had tons of fun on this one, especially at the last ones. (no I didn’t play Pokémon when I was younger, only the newer games...oops.)

Ayo can I get a lee makoto and ler sakura please?
Hey hi hello! I had so much fun writing this, I fricking love Sakura and I’m always happy to write about her. Thank you so much for this request! :’)
So I went with this random Idea of basically her training Makoto on how to win in a tickle fight, Because ofc she would train him. I’m not sure where the idea of the concussion came from but enjoy I guess? xD
Side note, In this fic, Makoto knows about Kenshiro because he has spent time with Sakura. Not sure If that needed explained but just so you know!
Characters: Lee!Makoto, Ler!Sakura, Implied Lee!Hina at the very end.
Word count: 3230
Makoto came staggering Into the nurses office, holding his head In pain. He sat down on one of the beds after retrieving an ice pack from the mini cooler nestled In the corner of the room.
“Makoto? What happened to you?” Aoi asked curiously from the bed across from his.
He jumped in surprise and quickly brought the cold pack down, trying to obscure It from the swimmer. “M-Me? Oh… Nothing, Just have a headache… What about you? Why are you In here?” He quickly turned the question around on her.
“She twisted her ankle while running. I’m wrapping It for her.” Sakura informed him.
Makoto hadn’t even noticed her until she spoke up.
“Don’t ask how I twisted It.” Hina giggled sheepishly, blushing a little.
“I thought Sakura just said you were running?”
“Yeah but…”
“She was running to the dining hall to get donuts.” Sakura sighed, rolling her eyes fondly at her best friend’s antics. She carefully finished wrapping up the foot In her lap and set It back down. “There, how does that feel?” 
“Better. Thanks Sakura.” Hina beamed, launching herself halfway off the bed to hug the taller girl.
Sakura flinched and quickly caught the athlete before she hurt herself even more. “Try to be more careful, Hina. I swear sometimes you can be such a klutz.” she teased, setting the swimmer back on the bed after giving her a quick hug.
“It’s not my fault, The Floor conspired against me.” Hina giggled.
“What am I going to do with you?” Sakura sighed.
Makoto smiled to himself as he watched the two absentmindedly, forgetting for a moment about the roaring migraine he had going… Until he just thought about it. He winced and put the ice pack back up against his head.
“Makoto, What happened to your head?” The Martial Artist asked, approaching the student curiously.
“I uh, Fell and hit my head.” He lied unconvincingly.
“If that’s the case, You might be as big of a klutz as me.” Hina giggled.
Sakura sighed and knelt on the bed behind him, carefully moving his hand away from the spot on his head. “Let me look at It.”
She moved his hair away from the spot on his head, he winced expecting her to be much more rough but she was surprisingly very gentle. It only stung a little. “Am I bleeding?” Makoto asked after a brief silence.
“No. But you do have a painful looking bump on your head. Put the ice back on that spot.” She instructed as she got up and came around to the other side of the bed.
He did as she told him, wincing as the stinging returned. “So all I need to do Is Ice It, Right?”
She sat down In a stool In front of him. “Yes, For that spot anyway. I want to check and make sure you don’t have a concussion though.”
“I’m sure I’m fine, Sakura. It’s just a bump.” 
“You said you have a headache, Is there anything else bothering you? Are you nauseous? Is there any ringing in your ears?” She asked, brushing off his attempts to put her at ease.
“No.”
“Your eyes are dilated.” She informed him. “Makoto, can you remember how exactly this happened?”
Makoto sat there, staring blankly at the wall behind Sakura trying to think. Honestly? No. He couldn’t. He didn’t remember hitting his head, all he remembered was getting up off the floor and stumbling in here.
He hesitantly met her eyes, slowly shaking his head.
She sighed softly and stood up, going over to the medicine cabinet and retrieving some ibuprofen. She brought It back with some water and set them both down on the table in front of Makoto. “Here, these will help, But you have a concussion so your head Is still going to hurt for a while. You can’t sleep for a few hours so Is there anything I can get you to help you stay awake?”
“Um, No… I’ll be okay. Thank you Sakura.” He mustered up a small smile at her.
“You’re welcome. I’m going to go figure out what happened, I will be back to check on both of you.” She said, exiting the room.
“I’ve never seen Sakura act like that before.” Makoto mumbled once the fighter had left the room.
Hina nodded, smiling. “Yeah, She only acts like that around people she’s close to. She kind of turns into a mom when someone gets hurt.” She giggled a little.
Makoto smiled, looking back at Hina. “Yeah, She kind of reminded me of my mom just now. Except she didn’t yell at me for not being careful.”
“She said she used to mother Kenshiro a lot when he’d get hurt. He always got mad at her for It so she kind of hid that side of herself.” Aoi recalled. 
“I don’t understand why, Obviously It was because She cared about him.”
“I guess tough guys don’t like being worried about.” she shrugged.
As the two continued to theorize and talk, Sakura had made her way to the dining hall where the others were gathered, she sat down next to Mondo and just stared at him for a moment.
“What? Why are you looking at me funny?” Mondo asked, turning to face her.
“Mondo… Did you hit Makoto?” She asked.
“What?? Why the hell would I do that?” The biker replied, making a face of confusion. “I’d only hit him If I was mad at him-- Which I wasn’t.”
“Then how did he get a concussion?” Sakura asked quietly.
“Makoto has a concussion!?” Mondo choked.
Taka whipped around, looking In alarm at them. “What?! Where Is Makoto right now?? I must go check on him--”
“He’s resting, I gave him some ibuprofen and he’s icing his head. He’s fine.” She reassured the strict student.
“We were rough housing and he fell, I went to check on him after a minute but he was gone. I figured he just went back to his room.” Mondo explained.
“It’s true.” Chihiro spoke up. “We were all playing around trying to take Mondo down.”
“Trying and failing.” The tough biker corrected, smirking.
“Don’t remind me, My sides still hurt.” Hiro mumbled.
“Hey I tried to tell you idiots that was a bad idea.” Leon retorted. “Clearly you didn’t learn from watching Taka get wrecked.”
Taka blushed as he felt all eyes at the table on him. “W-What? A leader leads by example!”
Chihiro giggled, shaking their head. “Where Is Makoto? I want to go check on him.”
“Yeah, Me too. I feel kind of guilty.” Mondo agreed.
“He’s In the Infirmary.” She answered. Well, At least she knew what happened now. She took the others back with her, and they proceeded to fill Makoto In on what transpired leading up to him hitting his head.
He was thankful to now recall how he got the concussion, but a little embarrassed that the reason he got the concussion to begin with was because he got tickled by Mondo in a bad spot and went flying into a wall to escape.
He was even more embarrassed that Hina and Sakura now knew that fact as well.
A few days later Makoto approached the Martial artist, She was sitting In the pool area watching Hina swim. “Hey Sakura?” 
Sakura looked up at him, The Lucky student appeared very nervous and shy. “Hello, Makoto. What Is It?”
“Um. I have a question.” He sat down next to her. “You can take Mondo In a fight, Right?”
Sakura gave a perplexed look as she smiled in amusement. “Yes, I believe so. Why? Do you want me to beat him up for you?”
“N-No! Nothing like that…” Makoto stammered. “I just… Um… How? How do you fight him and win?”
“What Is this about, Makoto?”
Makoto sighed. “I want revenge on him for the other day, I wanna be the one to successfully take him down. So how do I win against him in a play fight?”
“By play fight you mean...?” She asked.
“He means a tickle fight!” Hina answered, leaning against the side of the pool near them. “He wants to know how to win In a tickle fight!”
“H-Hina!” Makoto blushed bright pink, feeling ridiculous.
Sakura tilted her head curiously. “Is that true?”
“I-It’s not that I think you just go around getting In… Play fights with people all the time, But I think because you’re such a good fighter you’ll have some kind of strategy.” 
The Ultimate Martial artist actually giggled at this. “Oh how wrong you are… I’ve never won a ‘play fight’. But I’ve seen Mondo get tickled on a handful of occasions so I sort of have a strategy that might help you.”
“You’ve never won one before?” Makoto and Hina asked In unison, confused.
“L-Like Makoto said.” Sakura blushed. “I don’t just go around getting into such silly fights.”
Hina and Makoto exchanged looks, He was incredulous while she was… plotting something. Makoto could tell she was going to get herself in trouble later.
“Anyway, What’s the strategy?” Makoto asked, trying to distance himself from whatever foolishness Hina was plotting.
“Okay so…” Sakura thought for a moment, collecting her thoughts. “Mondo relies on his strength so you have to turn that into a weakness. By moving quicker than him and tripping him up by aiming for his joints. He’s sensitive in the stomach but If he’s as good of a fighter as I think he is, He’ll be guarding any obvious spots so you have to be unconventional and-- Makoto? Are you even listening?”
Makoto blinked. “Y-Yeah of course!”
“Repeat back what I just said.”
The lucky student stammered. “O-Okay, I didn’t take In any of that. I’m sorry! I’m listening. It's just... You’re talking kind of fast.”
Sakura frowned. “Sorry, I have a tendency to do that when discussing fighting.”
“No kidding.” Hina mumbled.
Sakura narrowed her eyes at Hina warningly before turning her attention back to Makoto. “I could try to go slower, But I get too Into talking about fighting and tend to start rambling. It might be better If I just show you and explain as I go.”
“No! Th-That won’t be necessary!” Makoto said quickly, blushing brightly. “It’s okay, I’ll figure something out and--”
“Makoto! Let her help you!” Hina chastised, pulling herself out of the pool and settling on the edge. “If you don’t, I’ll help you. And you won’t like my help… I’m not as gentle.” she warned, glaring at the frightened student.
“It’s okay, Makoto. I won’t hurt you.” Sakura reassured him carefully.
He wasn’t just afraid of getting hurt, He also was super ticklish and didn’t want her to see just how ticklish he was. “O-Okay…” He agreed hesitantly, standing up.
She stood up too. “Okay, So for this part, You’re going to be Mondo.” 
He nodded and took a defensive stance, bracing himself internally.
“You’re going to want to make the first move. Normally with someone larger than you, you want to wait for them to strike first so you can dodge and get your hits in.” She approached him. “But that will be his strategy, so you have to use it to your advantage. Reach your right arm out towards me.” she instructed.
He nodded and did as she asked.
“He’s right handed, so when he goes to reach for you, It’ll be with his right arm. Use your size to your advantage and duck as you get closer to his body. You want to avoid his hand by going under it.”
She walked around to his shoulder. “You’ll want to come back up to full height around here, Because you’re going to grab the collar of his coat when you do.”
Sakura grabbed the collar of his coat to emphasize. “He’s going to be spinning around to reach for you, so you have to keep moving while you have a handful of his coat.” she explained. “Spin around and try to grab me.”
Makoto did as she instructed, spinning around to grab at her but she began sprinting around him, dragging him nearly off his feet with her momentum alone. “Once you do this, Lift up--”
Makoto yelped as he was hoisted Into the air.
“And lean Into him, It’s like a tackle. The momentum of your running and his spinning will take him down with you on top of him. I’m not going to do that because I don’t want to hurt you.” She explained, Instead she gently put him down on the floor on his stomach and knelt beside him.
Makoto sighed in relief upon being set down. “Okay, Then what?”
“You’re going to want to keep your knee In the small of his back to keep him down.” She explained, Resting her hand against the small of his back. “Right about here. Make sure you put all of your weight Into It or he’ll be able to get out easily.”
He nodded, Making a mental note of the spot on his back. “Next?”
“He’ll be face down, So that leaves you with very little options. You have to be unconventional.”
“Unconventional how?”
“The Back, His shoulder blades, anywhere that might produce a reaction.” she explained.
“The back? Are people actually sensitive there…?” Makoto glanced over his shoulder at her inquisitively.
“Yes. Some people more than others.” She responded calmly. “Here, Let me show you.”
She brushed her fingers gently across his shoulder blades, to his surprise he squeaked and dissolved into a fit of giggles. “Okahahahay! Ihihihi seehehe what you mean!” He giggled, squirming around.
Sakura smiled in amusement as she ran her fingers across the back of his ribs. “Are you sure? I want to make sure you fully understand.”
Makoto squealed and began giggling harder, rolling over onto his back to protect it. “Ihihihim sure!” he retorted.
“Well, You wanna make sure you apply enough weight so that Mondo can’t roll over like that.” She said amusedly. “Because If he does…”
Suddenly she began tickling his sides and stomach, causing him to shriek and arch his back as he laughed brightly.
“He will destroy you by aiming for your weak spots.” She said as a matter of fact, no hint of joking whatsoever. Though If he looked at her face, He could see she was smirking.
“SAHAHAHAKURA! NOHOHOHOHO!” He flailed, laughing helplessly as he did.
“Come on, Makoto. This Is training. What do you do In this situation? I’ll give you a hint… I told you earlier.” She said, focusing her efforts on his stomach.
Makoto tried to rack his brain for the solution, but he couldn’t focus thanks to the merciless onslaught of tickles to his worst spot. “I DOHOHOHOHON’T KNOHOHOHOW!” He whined.
“Ooh! I know!” Hina raised her hand as though she was In class. “Aim for the joints, Right?”
“Yes.” Sakura relented her attack. “Whichever side he’s on, Raise the hand closest to him…”
Makoto brought his left arm up, still giggling under his breath as he waited for her instructions.
“And either chop his wrist, Or drive your elbow Into his inner elbow to send his arm away.” She explained. “From there, you should have a clear target. His stomach should be exposed. And he’s really sensitive there so It should trip him up enough for you to get the upper hand.” 
Makoto smirked mischievously. “Really?” Without waiting for her to say anything he darted his hands towards her midsection, But she saw this coming a mile away and caught his wrists. Stopping him with ease.
“Did you honestly think that would work?” Sakura chuckled, pulling the now incredibly nervous boy into her lap. 
“W-Wait! Sakura, I-I’m sorry!” He yelped, squirming. He couldn’t pull his wrists free no matter how much he tugged at them.
“Hmm… I’m not sure I believe you.” Sakura hummed thoughtfully. “I think you’re just sorry you were caught.”
Well, Technically she was right.
“Maybe this would be a good opportunity to teach you about teases. Seeing as though Mondo Is very weak to them.” She smirked.
Makoto’s eyes widened as he froze up. “Nononono! I know all about that! You don’t have to teach me!”
“Are you sure? I said I would help you beat Mondo, and this is a big part of that.” She began dragging her fingers across his side teasingly, making him tremble and giggle.
“Ihihihi’m good! I promise!” He giggled, blushing.
“I think you should tease him anyways! The little shit tried to tickle you. That’s my job!” Hina spoke up, outraged.
Sakura laughed lightly. “That would be the biggest mistake you’ll ever make. I will wreck you too.”
“Well yeah, duh. That’s part of the fun. I’m well aware of the risks.” Hina scoffed. 
“I think you may be a masochist, Hina.” Sakura smiled in exasperation at her friend before turning her attention back to Makoto. “But enough of that, What do you say I give you some good lines to use against him?” 
Makoto shook his head frantically. “Nohohoho!”
“But why not? Don’t you want to win against Mondo?” She hummed, forming a claw with her fingers and attacking his stomach. He screeched and threw his head back laughing. “Aw, Poor baby. Does this tickle~?”
“SAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAKURAAHA! PLEHEHEHEHEASE!” Makoto blushed bright red, burying his face in his arm.
“Please what? Please tickle you more? If you insist.” Sakura teased, vibrating her fingers into his sensitive belly.
Makoto let out another shriek as he laughed hysterically, tears welling up in the corner of his eyes already. “NAHAHAHAHAHAHA! MEHEHEHERCY!” He cried out.
“Do you think Mondo Is going to have mercy on you? Why should I?” she asked, though she did lighten up to just gently brushing her fingers against his exposed stomach.
He laid there in her lap giggling and laughing like a damn fool.
“He’s going to tickle you to pieces and laugh about it.”
“Whahahahat’s your pohohohoint?” He laughed.
She stopped her attack and let go of his wrists, gently putting him back down on the floor. “My point Is, If you make snap judgements and move without thinking of the repercussions, You’ll lose.”
He laid on the floor giggling softly and recovering from the attack. 
“Your advantage In this fight will be that Mondo Is reactionary, He doesn’t think about his actions so you can plan for that. But that’s also your disadvantage. You have to be quick thinking and stay three steps ahead of him if you want to win.” 
Makoto nodded as he sat up. “Thanks Sakura… Do you think I should practice before I try to take him on?”
“It definitely wouldn’t hurt.” She replied.
Makoto glanced up at Hina. At that moment they both lunged at Sakura, Who again saw this coming a mile away. She caught Hina In one arm and Makoto In the other, She pinned their bodies against hers with their arms at their sides so they couldn’t escape. “Seriously? Again?” She sighed.
“Hina why did I let you tempt me Into this!?” Makoto complained, squirming helplessly.
“Hey, You should have known following my lead was a bad idea.” Hina giggled.
“I guess some people learn the hard way...”
“Nononono! Sakura wait! Wahahahahahait!”
“Aieeee! Sahahahahakuraaaa ihihit tihihickles!”
Sakura sighed, What was she going to do with these two idiots? Well apparently the answer Is tickle them nearly to death, Because that’s what happened.

FRUITS BASKET S3 EPISODE 8 RECAP AKA THE KYORU CHRONICLES PART 2 (plus a quick recap of eps 3-7)
aaaaaaAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!! I gotta get it out of me otherwise I won't be able to concentrate on work and I will be scrolling through the tag till the day I die. Everything from episode 3 of Season 3 literally hit me like an avalanche - literally cos I marathoned 3-7 over the weekend which I wouldn't advise unless you want an accelerated heartbeat - and I'm starting to realise... maybe I just wasn't ready for season 3. Despite asking for it, haha. Not gonna put as many screencaps for this one cos tumblr editing bay be trippin and I just don't have time nor emotional energy to be fighting with the picture uploads, sorry lol
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Episodes 3 - 7
I spoke before about how (despite my feelings about the characters) the English dub VAs for Akito and Shigure pair up really well audibly. And I think I feel the same way about both Yuki and Machi's English VAs! They both have the same soft spoken yet scratchy element to their voices almost like they are holding slightly back. Although, I'd argue that Yuki has been losing the element of slightly holding back as the anime has gone on which I wonder if the same would be included for Machi's performance?
I really like the presentation of Machi's trauma through her family's expectations to be perfect and how physical it is? How Yuki kind of encourages her to let it out in a healthy way? (Btw the whole chalk breaking scene in the meeting was SO FUCKING SMOOTH. YUKI IS A NERD BUT HE IS SO EFFORTLESSLY COOL A LOT OF THE TIME)
The age gap between Isuzu and Haru for sure isn't the worst age gap in this anime/manga but it's still a bit... hmm...
Episode 4:
Tumblr media
In all seriousness, I know Akito deserves some sympathy but it doesn't change the fact that I still see her as a villain. Hurt people hurt people but it doesn't mean they should get away with it, I was honestly pleased Haru got that big confrontation with Akito to tell her WHAT'S WHAT but it was also somewhat... merciful?
Hiro's growth has been so beautiful to see, him realising there are bigger things than him from the event with Rin to his relationship with Kisa to then the birth of his little sister.
Kureno choosing to get his hands a little dirtier and paying the ultimate price for it (as far as we know so far in the anime lol) was great, he is the moon side of Tohru's sunshine.
Shigure... I still don't really get him and Akito's relationship. It's clear he's waiting for Akito to grow the fuck up but at the same time he's not creating an environment for her to grow and develop. He's decided to go with the 'tough love' route which I'm still deciding whether I like it or not tbh. Sometimes it feels necessary, at other times it feels shitty. I respect that he knows he's a scumbag and I don't deny that there are people out there who take revelry in the fact that they are awful but at the same time, him remaining unchanging despite everything feels... unrealistic. But considering throughout this story he doesn't seem affected by trauma, it's understandable, I guess?
Also... that scene where Shigure ponders about whether he should've been with Tohru is THE creepiest creeper shit he's EVER done in this series. No. 🙅🏾‍♀️
Momiji is best bunny boi regardless of how tall and 'manly' he becomes. 🐰His scene with Akito was so authentically him and he really did that shit. We love him. <3
I love the way that the curse breaking should (on surface) be a happy event considering all the trauma the zodiac went through because of it but it's presented mostly as loss as well as happiness. It's the realness of getting out of a bad relationship
Shigure basically laying it out to Tohru how Kyo means nothing in a very taunting way was an excellently painful scene and I choose violence. It was heartbreaking seeing how worthless they all saw Kyo compared to how Tohru saw him but... by this point I was just living in the pain so 🤷🏾‍♀️
The story visually showing how Isuzu is more willing to be soft after her whole ordeal through her fashion choices (e.g. the pastels, the cardigans) was really nice. And Haru being happy about Isuzu making friends with Tohru was cute!
It was nice we saw that Kazuma was still wary about whether Tohru loved Kyo for the right reasons, you'd assume after everything Kazuma would love Tohru as a match for Kyo but he's so emotionally intelligent and also just a protective Dad! Yay, good parenting!
Tohru's confession to loving Kyo was amazing however I still adore Kyo's confession a little bit more. Just a bit. Lol. However, if you add the moment later in episode 8 it trumps it completely. Ethereal goddess.
Kyo and Tohru's grandfather having a scene together was great and nice
Now that I think about it, I wish there was more a visual link in the story between Tohru adapting her speech to imitate her Dad and Momiji adopting his Mum's German accent. Albeit for slightly different reasons, it just adds to the unique connection Tohru and Momiji have. In short, I'm seeing this ship with my third eye now. I get it lol
I don't wanna screencap the scene where Kyo is haunted by both his deceased mother and deceased Kyoko and potentially deceased Tohru because it's the stuff of nightmares. But, it was a wonderfully done scene. You definitely understand fully and clearly why Kyo buried all of that trauma under his hatred for Yuki (I CAN'T WAIT FOR EPISODE 9, YOU GUISE!)
If Akito is a villain, Ren is the final boss. Although, with her type of villainy... I feel like I can kind of enjoy a bit more. She reminds me of a Greek God in the ways she master manipulates people and her desperation for control and power (I just read 'Mythos' by Stephen Fry, it's a great read lol)
It lowkey feels like every female character who's comfortable in expressing their sexuality in this story is punished in some way for it... this is an incomplete thought
Shigure as a child feeling like they should all be pitied is so... mature... I feel like I need more of an explanation for why Shigure is the way he is
Akito's ego death with Kureno? Amazing. I loved that she was at least aware enough to realise how Kureno had been coddling her all this time but again... doesn't excuse her crimes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But anyways...
EPISODE 8
Honestly? I really don't have much to say about this episode besides 3-5 points I wanna get out of my head. It's not a bad thing at all, it's just that there's still a lot left to play out from this 'arc' and this season in general that I wanna complete my thoughts on.
But I'll start with this:
Tumblr media
Lol, isn't it funny?! Isn't it heart-wrenchingly funny how the relationship between Kyo and Tohru has kinda reverted back to how they were at the start of the series? The coldness of Kyo at the beginning of this episode (and throughout) was a bit of a gut punch considering all the light and fluffy moments that we've gotten between the two since the True Form arc.
Talking about the True Form arc, I feel like this episode is somewhat a repeat of the same emotions, same trials of the True Form arc. Kyo still 'runs away like he always has' but this time we get him being the most honest and confrontational with his own emotions and trauma than he ever has been during the course of this whole story. While trusting someone (Tohru specifically) for the first time with the whole truth of his story! He always seems to move one step forward and then three steps backwards and while it's a tad bit frustrating, it feels very... real. I'll probably complete my feelings how this arc reflects the True Form arc when we finish this section of the story in future episode(s).
Considering the fact that 80% of this episode is Jerry Jewell monologuing as Kyo and I never got bored really just sells his performance. Kyo was being incredibly cold this episode and yet the range of emotions through his performance made it feel understandable enough for you to empathise with it.
Tumblr media
BrattyKid!Kyo to lighten the mood 😹I still wish he and Hiro had more of a relationship, I feel like they could have taught each other a lot. Well... mostly Kyo teaching Hiro tbh
Kyo rejecting Kyoka for her honesty and kindness and then later rejecting Tohru? Oh... kid...
Wow, I felt so good about that whole episode of Kid!Yuki helping Kid!Tohru get home and then it's slightly soured knowing KID!KYO was running about the streets alllll night into the morning?!?! I really did feel Kyo's frustration at not getting that win to actually do something right. And the irony of that being linked to him being unable to save Kyoka from the oncoming car?
Honestly, I don't know what my feelings are on Kyo being unable to save Kyoka. I don't even know what my feelings are on Tohru pretty much pushing that aside in favour of her feelings for Kyo. It's... complicated and I've been mulling it over in my head for the last 10+ years hahah However, if I was in Tohru's position I think I'd eventually come to a point where it feels like it's too late to really do anything about how bad I'd feel about it. Kyo's intentions weren't horrid, if anything he was just being a scared kid and he's allowed to be that. I just wish Tohru had a bit more time to evaluate it but considering she knew her mother well and assumes that wouldn't have been the full scope of what she had said, I don't have much of a problem with it in general
Tumblr media
Lol, I love when Tohru gets a 'FUCK YOU, I LOVE YOU' moment with Kyo. 😂Another reflected scene from the True Form arc... only thing is that this time... it doesn't quite work. 😕
(Again, I love how all of these reflections are resolved in later occurences in response to the duality but I'll get to it next week when it shows hopefully)
Laura Bailey only had a few sentences in this episode but she killed it as always. Comparing her performance in 2001 to now is just... growth!
Ok, so Yuki automatically gets Best Boi in this episode for meddling and chasing after KYO of all people. Showing how he's personally done with hating Kyo. Realising Kyo is pretty much the only person who'll make his mother happy. I think he also lowkey wants to understand Kyo? But, we'll get to that next week.
....Oh yeah, Akito is there.
--------------------------------------------------------------
In total, I liked this episode even though it has me anxious for the next one. We finally get the full picture of why Kyo is the way he is! Ahhhh - a weight off all our chests, I'm sure. I kinda don't like that they put the ending theme at the end of these episodes - the joyfulness doesn't really match up with the intense theme? But, that's just a minor gripe. And hey, maybe they just want the audience to know... it's all gonna be okay :)
See you next week!!!
