[formulaorange]

2023 Fall Anime

This is honestly a loaded season full of new shows based on relatively new manga. Lots to look forward to

Spy x Family - Season 2 One of the most fun SJ series that have come out in a while. Season 1 was killer, high hopes for season 2.

Goblin Slayer 2 I didn't realize they were even making a second season. This was such a killer series. I'm really hoping they don't fall into the many mid-tier fantasy tropes out there in anime right now. I thought the appeal of the show was really Goblin Slayer himself and less about the lackeys along the way. So we'll see how it goes.

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End This is definitely one of my highly anticipated series. It's about an elf who was part of the Hero's party and her life after he dies. (Since elves live longer) Definitely a darker take on fantasy but has some really solid fantasy and adventure vibes.

Rising of the Shield Hero - Season 3 Season 2 was pretty disappointing and slow. While this looks like it'll be more fast paced, it does look like a tournament arc of sorts. I know some aren't a fan of that kind of arc, but honestly I think it's exactly what this series needs to pick things up again. We'll see.

The Faraway Paladin - Season 2 This was legitimately one of my favourite fantasy series. I thought it was really well written and didn't rush things like other series. I'm looking forward to this season.

Sequels/Continuations: Eminence in Shadow - Season 2 killer series with an anti-hero main character. Definitely worth checking out. After-School Hanako-Kun Hanako-kun spin off Dr. Stone Season 3 - Part 2 One of the best novel concept series with nothing else in it's genre to compare to. Definitely didn't drop the ball on the recent seasons and still worth watching. Dead Mount Death Play - Part 2 One that I didn't particularly enjoy, but has a decent sized manga following. Tokyo Revengers - Tenjiku Arc The continuation of the series. Might be just me but it feels like the series fell off after the first season. The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent - Season 2 A more mature take on fantasy isekai that just started to get into romance at the end of last season. A solid combo of shoujo genres. The Ancient Magus' Bride - Season 2 Part 2 One that I haven't had a change to check out yet but have only heard good things about. Hypnosismic - Season 2 a weirdly addictive musical/rap series. Unique characters and honestly solid rap battles. One I'll be enjoying. -- Related - Paradox Live - Music battle with what looks to be the same style of animation and solid character design. Definitely worth looking at if you're a fan of Hypmic. The Seven Deadly Sins: Four Knights of the Apocalypse A sequel of SDS. Looks like it could be a fun watch for the fans of the series. New:

Shangri La Frontier A new manga fantasy series. This may be a horrible way to describe but it is what it is - a new age SAO- full dive fantasy game. A gamer who only plays shit games, gets into a new massively popular MMORPG and is op. One that I'm excited for because it ticks all the fantasy game boxes I like.

Undead Unluck A relatively new manga series that gained a lot of traction in the last year or two. A gory action comedy that's super chaotic and a lot of fun.

Shy Brand new hero manga series about a shy girl and her anxieties and struggles going into the hero world who grows and gains confidence as she becomes a better hero.

Ron Kamonohashi's Forbidden Deductions This is a manga series that I have kept forgetting the name of so never got a chance to read but all the covers for the manga look phenomenal. Likely the anime doesn't do him justice but it is what it is. Essentially sherlock in anime form. A PI with issues and the wholesome police detective work together to solve crime. Other New Series: Green - Fantasy Pink - Romance Red - Action Purple - Drama The Kingdoms of Ruins A world where witches were hunted down by humans as science surpassed magic. A kid who was raised by a witch swears revenge on mankind. This honestly looks solid. The animations are very cool looking and the mc seems to be an anti-hero. Will be looking at this one. Under Ninja A well known manga series about modern ninjas. Definitely a unique series for this season. The Apothecary Diaries A historical medical mystery show. I've heard the name before and I've also only heard good things. Will be worth a watch. A Girl & Her Guard Dog The granddaughter of a crime syndicate goes to highschool out of town and the current young boss lies his way into the same school. Would be cute romance if it weren't for the fact she's 15 and he's 26.. Butareba - The Story of a Man Turned into a Pig What the title says. A girl finds him and the story goes from there. I'm Giving the Disgraced Noble Lady I Rescued a Crash Course in Naughtiness The usual light novel title. Honestly, doesn't seem as yikes as I initially thought, might just be harmless breaking the rules kinda thing. Could be fun, also a Capybara that strikes fear into people's hearts. My Daughter Left the Nest and Returned an S-Rank Adventurer Looks like a wholesome series where an adventurer finds a baby, raises it and she becomes so strong she's busy working all the time. Just a cute father daughter relationship in a fantasy setting about her wanting to come take time to see him but being caught up in OP fantasy battles. Ragna Crimson Dragons vs Humanity - a human and a dragon team up to destroy all the dragons. Action fantasy series. Berserk of Gluttony I honestly added this because I thought it was hilarious. Looks like a combo of knock offs - the Gluttony skill from Tensura (reincarnated as a slime) and the mc being called Fate with the main girl who looks exactly like Sabre. I'll be skipping but its' here so you know.

Happy Halloween! 🎃

-> Dragon and werewolf for Ryūzō

-> Candy and Poison for Takumi

-> Werewolf and Cloak for Kotono

Dragon - What is their favourite scary movie?

"My favorite scary movie?" Ryūzō repeats with a frown. "I don't generally watch horror movies. Not because I'm afraid, but because I don't need to watch a movie filled with fictional monsters killing off everyone they see. My life has already seen enough of that. ...Besides I barely get enough sleep at night as it is, thanks to my insomnia. Watching a horror movie would not help with that."

"...But to answer the question, there was one movie that Kotono dragged me to see once. What was it called... ah yes, the Ring. A video about a cursed video tape and a girl with supernatural powers. I'll admit, that one piqued my interest. I can't say if it is my favorite horror movie since I don't watch many, but it is the one I always remember."

"But still, I try to avoid horror movies when I can since they are too much like real life. If I wanted to hear young adults moaning/groaning or see them being killed off, all I need to do is just say two words: 'pop quiz'."

You try to ascertain as to whether the English professor is joking or not; its hard to tell from the stoic, neutral look on his face...

Werewolf - What is their favourite part of Halloween?

"My favorite part of Halloween?" Ryūzō repeats, before looking at the screen with a stoic look. "Simple: when it's over." He goes back to grading papers for a minute before looking up at the screen, a neutral look still on his face.

"...Do not take my answer to be a sign that I have anything against All Hallow's Eve. It's simply when this holiday and time of the year rolls around, my students tend to become very lackadaisical with their studies. Around the midpoint of October when midterms are over, that's a sign that the semester is almost over. By that time, the students lose what fervor they had and their grades tend to drop lower than they already are. They seem to think that just because its a festive time, it's an excuse to neglect their schoolwork, and their main interest is in parties and goofing off."

"Therefore, I don't seek to have anything to do with this holiday, other than what is required of me by the school. And that's grading these students' horrid test papers." Ryūzō holds up a student's paper that has 34/100 on it, his face still as stoic as ever.

Candy - If they got to choose to be any supernatural being, what would they choose?

"A dragon!" Takumi answers instantly, with a loud voice and a grin on his face.

"I've always admired and respected dragons since I first learned about them. Dragons are, in my opinion, the personification of raw power. But besides that, they're also so majestic and beautiful, even if they're only featured in paintings and works of fiction. Guess it's no surprise the the speaker for my HypMic is a dragon!"

Poison - Who would they enter a group costume contest with?

"Who would I enter a group costume contest with?" Takumi asks, before looking up to think.

"Hmm... I'd like to say my coworkers, but... knowing Ryūzō, it'd take the school principal or superintendent to get him involved. And even then, he may not take it seriously." Takumi explains, rolling his eyes.

"I'd like to say Kotono, but... well, as much as I like her, if there's a party involved, there's probably going to be drinks. And if there are drinks around and Kotono's there, well... we've all seen how she gets when she has some liquor inside of her."

"So, yeah, I'd like to involve my co-workers, just not my teammates. I mean, if they want to join, that's good. I already know what Ryūzō would say, but if Kotono wanted to join and she was sober, well... I wouldn't say 'no'."

Werewolf - What is their favourite part of Halloween?

"My favorite part of Halloween? Getting drunk, obviously!" Kotono answered, grinning.

"I mean, other than St. Patrick's Day, which we don't really celebrate here in Japan, Halloween is really just an excuse to get drunk and have a good time while dressing up. Our superintendent always throws the staff a Halloween party here in the Academy. And they always bring in some free drinks, which I'll never say no to. And the free food and candy isn't bad either!"

Cloak - Do they decorate for Halloween? If so, do they go all out, do they only put up a few, do they fall somewhere in between?

"Do I decorate for Halloween?" Kotono asks, before frowning. "No, I sadly don't decorate. Not saying I wouldn't like to, but... well, besides the fact that putting decorations up means having to take them down again, which I probably will neglect to do until Ryūzō comes to clean my apartment again, setting decorations up means that you'll probably be home, handing out candy, which I won't do since, as I mentioned, the staff have ourselves a little Halloween party every 31st."

Thanks for the ask!

Yandere!Hifudo duet

always wanted to write something like that with this two.. turns out not that bad, I think

yandere themes, stalking, manipulation, mention of you having a boyfriend, using hypmic for not intended purpose, threatening, mention of being locked, they both get pretty delusional to the end;; 3413 words;;

I think the one who will start everything would be Doppo. You two working together in one office, and you.. you such an angel to him..!

Always working hard, you never try to slack off and shift the responsibility, when everyone else try to give their paperwork to Doppo, you just smile at him, offering your help if you not that busy. Maybe you actually an angel, who was sent to rescue him..?!

He's pretty pessimistic and he was afraid that you just feel pity for him, not interested really. So it was really hard to him to even try to talk with you in lunch break or after work. Just some simple couple words from you will make him tremble a little, as he try to answer nervously.

One day, he will finally ask Hifumi for help, when he was in his host mode. But then will quickly shut him up cause all that Hifumi say was "Ho ho, my dear Doppo, why so nervous..! Just get closer to her, put you hands slowly on her waist as you whisper softly 'Kitten, you're-'"

"S.. shut up, Hifumi, I will NEVER say something like that to her..! She's too pure for something like that!!" he scoff.

Well, too late. Hifumi now willing to help his precious friend so much that he decided to pay a visit to Doppo's office.

You was sitting in break room when suddenly Doppo break in, mumbling to himself nervously with wild eyes. "Again..! He decided to do that again..! My boss will kill me..!" He drop on his kneels, probably trying to control his emotions, but it's look like he's about to scream and then pass out. When you slowly get closer, asking with scared worried tone is he alright, he would shrug a little, then look at you.

"O..oh, s/o..! I.. I didn't know that you're here!!! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry-" he keeps begging on all fours. You just sigh, amused, cause this little habit of his was both strange and cute.

As you try to calm him down, you found out what's wrong - apparently, his best friend decided to check him, and came to the office, but he's a huge womanizer. Doppo also tell that it was already happen once and after that boss scolds him very hard, cause his friend was literally flirting with any girl he see.

You actually hear something like that from your co-workers, cause it was happened before you start to work here too, and now you was curious a little. And also worried, cause Doppo, who's you was able to bring into couch, looks like he will die soon.

And when you offers him a cup of water, thinking what to do next, the door suddenly opens, and a pretty tall blonde man was standing here with charming smile. Well, you quickly realize who it is, as some of your co-workers (both man and woman) was standing behind him. One of the girls was whispering to other one that it's Hifumi himself, and he's actually a host or something, as they both look at him with some awe in eyes.

[How I even ended up in something like this] - you think by yourself, you arm still resting on Doppo's back. Hifumi look at you two and you awkwardly smile.

"Oh, my precious Doppo..! And no less charming kitten..! I see you was having some time alone, am I right?" - as soon as he said this Doppo quickly jump from his seat, you notice that his face was red, from anger or from blush? You don't know.

"Oi, shut up, Hifumi..!" - he take him by his collar, whispering through teeth - "I tell you several times - do NOT comes to my workplace..! Go away..!"

"Oh ho ho, you shouldn't act like that in front of your dear kitten, Doppo..!" - he quickly get away, it's seems like he's not even ashamed as his confidence was unbreakable. "And what's your name, little princess?" - he suddenly get closer to you - "I'm sorry, but I want to know what type of girl my dear friend decided to take on da-"

Doppo loudly close the door to break room, so no one from yours co-workers will see it, as he get closer to Hifumi as quick as he can, pulling him away from you.

"Stop that, Hifumi!! Or I will literally kill you!!"

You try to calm Doppo down, telling that everything is okay, hoping that everything will be resolved before lunch break ends. But Doppo was too ashamed and nervous now to even hear you, and Hifumi was in his "gigolo" mode and just keep laughing pompous.

That's when Doppo suddenly take off Hifumi's jacket. His voice changed immediately, turning into more.. childish? Goofy? You don't even know how to describe this, as he's change so quickly you don't really understand what happen.

"Huh?? Take my jacket back, Doppopo...!" - he whine as Doppo quickly return him jacket.

"Just go away, okay?! I don't need you help in that situation.."

They both was standing a little but afar from you, probably thinking you already go away or something? Anyways, Doppo's look much more calmer now and you decided to actually slowly get out to not disturb them.

But as soon as your touch the door you heard a scream behind you.

"T.. t.. THERE WAS A WOMAN ALL THIS TIME?!" - Hifumi back away, looking at you with such scared expression that you get scared yourself, panicked what did you do wrong.

But before be get a chance to say something, Doppo grab his arm and pulling him out of the room. As you look at Hifumi, who's still waves you goodbye and winks, you slowly sit down. Well. Uh. It's actually good you have some time before lunch break ends cause your definitely need some break after that.

"I.. I'm sorry, i-"

"DOPPO SHE'S TALKING" - Hifumi bump into wall, whining and crying while Doppo's look like as he start to pass out once again, he quickly take grey jacket and put it on Hifumi. It's almost look like some kind of magic transformation cause now Hifumi was looking as his charming gigolo side once again.

But five minutes after, as you still sit here with glass of water, absolutely confused, Doppo walks in. He quietly get closer, then kneels, his head hitting floor.

"I'M SO SORRY. I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY-" its look like he will do that endlessly, so you just try to calm down him once again, just to finally understand what's going on. This time it was take a little bit more time cause Doppo was actually crying, asking if he should kill himself now or you will forgive him like that too.

Eventually, you will finally understand what's happened from Doppo's mumbles, and why Hifumi acts like that.

Now, you know both of them, and Doppo so glad you didn't get disgusted after see him acting like that, and you also not angry at Hifumi for his strange mood swings. You even ask if he trying to work on his fear with psychologist, you actually worried..! You're truly are from heaven. Despite he was absolutely ashamed due to this accident, Doppo just can't stop think how adorable and angelic you're, and the thought about getting closer makes his heart flutter.

You already accept his strange behavior, maybe you actually don't mind to be friends with him? And then.. something more..? He was dreaming about this both in work hours and in his house too, where Hifumi was teasing him about this a little. Hifumi was.. confused, honestly. Of course you scares him as much as others girl, but seeing Doppo being so madly in love.. He was a happy to his friend, so he really tries to look at you with more positive thoughts.

Doppo was falling in love deeper and deeper, and sometimes it was hard not to talk with someone. He didn't wants to bother Hifumi, due to his fear, but then Hifumi himself offering his help - he was listening to Doppo's mumbles about you, and how pretty you're, and you so kind, and you always help Doppo if he messed up in his reports..!

It was a little bit hard to listen about woman but Hifumi just smile and nod, trying to calm himself down. He hates people who don't make an effort but he himself haven't any progress with his fear, did HE actually make any effort in his path of healing? So he decided that this talks in evenings can be something like therapy, cause he's notice that he get a little bit used to you (well, at least to Doppo's small talks about you), and your name didn't cause wave of fear inside him, he just get a little bit nervous.

Well, but it's about Hifumi, when Doppo was trying to make at least something to slowly win you over. He was still a little bit shy to just talk with you and call you on date, but he start working with more serious face - he always pays huge attention at his work, but now he also wants to look better while doing it, not just look at screen with almost zombie expression. He try to act more cool and calm, more mature and serious. You always ask if he needs any help, why don't he do the same for you? Even if he already have few extra paperworks from others co-workers, you're more important.

That's when Hifumi suddenly come up with some idea - why don't you pay a visit to their house? He start to feel a little bit more confident now, so he wanna try to.. well, at least try to look at you at a distance of about a couple of meters and don't fall unconscious. When Doppo hears about that for the first time, he gets really annoyed, not really wishing to cleaning up all mess that Hifumi would probably cause in that situation.

But after a while, he think about that again. Well, even if Hifumi get scared, Doppo can just apologize and take you to his room so you would be all alone, he finally would have a chance to get to know you better. And if Hifumi would be actually okay it's also not bad, that's just mean that his friend finally start to healing. And also, if you would befriend Hifumi, Doppo would have an extra reason to talk with you and call you to their home. So, he would agree to this risky thing.

It would be actually pretty hard to him to invite to their home, he's so nervous..! What if you would take this wrong?! And what if you get scared or even start hate him or-

Oh, you didn't mind. He sigh peacefully, trying to act calm but inside his heart beats so fast as he just run around the whole world. You actually will spend you time with him and Hifumi.. it's just so great, he can't stop smiling widely for the rest of the day.

Should I say that it would be really awkward and dumb meeting? You don't know how to act so you will not scare Hifumi, Hifumi don't know how to act so he will not her scared himself, Doppo just sitting here absolutely scared already cause you actually sitting in his house with him and his best friend and you actually try to be as much polite as you can, don't being disturbed by Hifumi's sudden waves of fear and Doppo's awkwardness and mumbles.

You sit together just a little, so Hifumi wouldn't overstress himself. But as soon as Doppo close the door behind you, they look at each other.

"She's so kind, don't you think?" - he sigh dreamy with soft warm feeling in his chest.

"Huh.. Well, now I do understand why you call her angel.. " - Hifumi was more shy with you around but now his bubbly personality returns - "You know what? I don't even feel that bad, you should call her once again, hehe~"

But this is where everything was start to get worse.

Despite the fact that you actually start to hang out with him, Doppo still have such a low self-esteem, he's afraid he will messed up everything with his lack of luck and awkward behavior.

He also start to get more jealous, especially when he can clearly see that other man in company trying to flirt with you or just compliments you. How can they?! You just so precious, they don't deserve even look at you..! They always make fun of Doppo, he know they all hates him, and you the only one who smile when look at him, with actually kind smile, not mocking one. He just don't want to lose that little ray of sunshine in his dark office.

For some reason he doesn't mind you get closer to Hifumi too, but other men..? He can't allow that.

So he began to stalk. Just a little, he's too ashamed of himself but he just can't resist this urge, he wants to know how you spend your evenings when you not hanging out with him and Hifumi..! Also, you just so precious, so naive, what if something happened with you while you're walking home late at night from work?! He just trying to be protective a little.

He wouldn't say about this to Hifumi, he's embarrassed and know that it's bad and strange, he just lie he has an extra work so he would be home late.

But Hifumi is not a fool. He can see when his friend returns after long hours of working with papers, absolutely drained to the point he can't talk normally, or when he get home a little bit embarrassed, but with happy expression that he can't hide.

He would try to ask him about that one day. "Doppopo, stop lying to me! What are you doing in evenings? Do you get so closer to s/o that she's invite you to her house?~ hehehe, our Doppo is womanizer now?" he ask in sweet teasing tone, clearly joking, but Doppo was too nervous this last days, thoughts about being a creep bag him so much that he's finally break, crying and telling everything to Hifumi. He was afraid, but he know that his best friend would be more acceptable.. at least he hopes.

He would complain to Hifumi, and a lot. That here's so much other co-workers who's trying to befriend you, and he see how you hanging out with your other friends, you was so happy..! He just afraid to lose you, that he has no choice but to stalk you a little, just check you sometimes...!

Well.. Hifumi definitely was surprised. "Huh, so Doppo actually pretty serious about s/o, huh!!" - he sigh with feigned seriousness and then laugh. Actually.. he does mind~. He also get pretty interested in you, and it's still was a little bit too hard to talk with you, especially to ask about your life. But he wants to know too, he wants to know you better! Hifumi feel as he start to get used to your face, he even can look at you for pretty long time and even talk..! He wants more now! So, from this evening, this two will work in duet - Doppo would stalk you after work, just to get more information about you and your life, and Hifumi will lure you to come in their house more often. You cannot just leave him, when he finally have some progress with his fear, don't you? Why don't you spend your weekends with them, just to help Hifumi a little bit more? And he would bake something for you as a thanks, aren't that great?

You didn't notice how you start to spend more and more time with this two, forgetting about you other friends. You trying to plan your free time so you will get enough time for everything but always ended up with giving more attention to this two. But they was so nice and good, asking about how are you today, Doppo always ready to bitching about yours boss, and Hifumi always cook something delicious when you visit them. You was really surprised how can he know your food preferences so good but he just simply answered that as a great culinary specialists he have ability to easily guess something like that.

You thought everything would be like that for a long, long time. You didn't mind their strange behavior sometimes, you was happy to see them.. as your friends.

So, when you decided to tell them you finally find yourself a boyfriend they both look.. more surprised than happy. Hifumi smile awkwardly, giggling any try to congratulate you, when Doppo look at you with absolutely blank expression before burst into worried mumbles.

"A.. are you sure, s/o?! Is he actually.. is he actually that good?! What is he trying to just use you?!" - he was so scared that he almost start crying.

"Oi, oi, Doppo~po, don't you think you being a little bit overprotective? You're not her dad, hehe~" Hifumi try to calm him down but you can notice that he's also a little bit.. sad? Or confused, you can't really say.

After this evening they both didn't sleep for the whole night, thinking about plan. Doppo know who is your boyfriend, cause he already see you walking with him sometimes in evenings, he was more closer to you then others of your friends. They just need to decided how they gonna.. eliminate him.

***

So, late at night, two figures walks into dark streets, they both holding something in their arms, if some late passer-by had come closer to them he would notice that it was microphones.

They slowly walks, already know address of your boyfriend. Neither Hifumi nor Doppo was scared or nervous, they both was coldly determined as they got closer to his house, breaking inside. They quickly turn on their microphones when your boyfriend get up, scared to sudden noises.

It was a fast fight, after all, he was just a ordinary civilian and they both was rappers with some intention of protecting you. Should I say that Doppo almost immediately switch to his berserk mode and demolished almost whole apartment?

But they didn't plan to kill him. Hifumi's rap ability of control his opponent really help them today - they just make him delete all yours contacts from his phone and block you in all social media. If it was possible, they totally would hypnotize him to forget you completely, but they can't.

Next target was your home, they walks more quickly now, both excited that their plan worked pretty smoothly, sick delusional smiles on their faces. Oh darling, they already can't wait to see your face again..

You will wake up from quite noise, pretty scared. As you slowly get up from bed, as quiet as possible, you hear some footsteps, realising there's not only one, but two visitors. Trying to find your phone in dark, you suddenly hear click, as your bedroom's door opens, reveal two standing figures. Screaming, you back away and fall to the ground.

"Darling, sorry for making you wait for us..." you then look at them, realising it's Hifumi and Doppo, they both approach you confused figure slowly.

"Heheh, why so nervous? It's me, Hi~fu~mi!" - he steps closer, get down on one knee. He's so close to you, but absolutely not scared, it's opposite - his eyes look at you so obsessivly, his smirk looks more threatening, not as his familiar goofy smile.

"Don't you worry, darling, we already took care of everything..." - Doppo sit next to him, taking your trembling arm in his hands. He smiles widely with crazy look in his loving gaze, as he can't stop looking at your precious face - you just look so cute when you're scared..

It's so easily to scare you, to confuse you, aren't this mean they both need to take control over you? Doppo would always protect you from this cruel world, taking care of everyone who will try to search for you, and Hifumi would always treat you like a princess, makes sure you enjoying your life completely locked in their house.

"Come on, darling.. why don't you pay a visit to our home once again..? This time we will not let you go..♡"

30 Day HypMic Challenge!

DAY 10: SOMETHING THAT'S NOT CANON BUT YOU THINK IT IS

🎤 Samatoki and Saburo are friends~

Okay so let me cook. Hear me out.

This works especially well if you are a compulsive SamaIchi shipper like me, but I think it just works regardless in a post-canon context when Ichiro and Samatoki have gotten back to being friends (or BOYFRIENDS- gets dragged off stage while clawing at the floor again).

It's pretty obvious to me that as time goes on and Samatoki and Ichiro slowly get past the useless resentment they had towards each other, they start hanging out again a lot more and that implies that maybe they happen to drop by at each other's house every now and again.

And, well, Ichiro's house is also his brothers' house. And that got me thinking, how would they take having Samatoki back in Ichiro's life after everything that happened? Well, obviously they would be hostile at first, both of them, but I feel like Samatoki himself would want to get closer to them, at least to the point where they're civil, for Ichiro's sake (and for his own, so he doesn't get glared at every time he steps into the house).

Now, there could be different interpretations to this, but personally, I think Jiro's the hardest nut to crack. He would be so stubbornly protective of Ichiro in this particular regard that Samatoki would have to struggle so much to get him to stop throwing scathing remarks at him.

Saburo, however.

Saburo is ultimately a pretty lonely kid. Ichiro is always working and barely has time to indulge him (he does when he can, but it can't be all the time) and he doesn't really get along with Jiro; he doesn't exactly have friends either, so he's more or less always cooped up in his room. And, fair enough, most of his interests reflect this lifestyle - except one. Board games.

It's canon that Saburo has a board game hyperfixation (love that for him), but... board games are pretty much always a social thing. You need at least one other person to play them properly. And Saburo basically never has that. I feel like Samatoki would jump at that chance.

He'd sit at the table with Saburo and have him explain all the weirdest rules to any and every game he can find, at first out of obligation - but you bet your ass he'd get competitive and would slowly become an expert at every game just so he can kick this little arrogant kid's ass (and because the games are actually fun, but he won't admit that).

I can so see them bonding in this way! And I can totally imagine Ichiro getting back from a job and finding Samatoki aggressively playing Monopoly with Saburo at the kitchen table and just looking over with a satisfied smile. He would be so happy that they're getting along, especially because that also means Saburo won't be alone as much like this.

And, well, my little heart just swells thinking that, since Ichiro for Saburo is Ichi-nii, maybe at some point he'd call Samatoki Samatoki-nii as well... KYAAAH CUTENESS OVERLOAD >///<

But yes, I really want to see more Samatoki and Buster Bros getting along content. Maybe we'll get it at some point :3

Hi it is finally time for me to share my Gentaro hypmic theory with the world

I just want to put it out there before Cross A Line releases and it’s rendered completely moot point LMAO

OBVIOUSLY HEAVY HYPMIC SPOILERS AHEAD

Okay so like... I think most of us are on the same page about Gentaro’s brother being his older twin, and that “Gentaro” is really the name of the older brother; not the Gentaro that we know.

So my personal theory about Gentaro’s backstory is this: He and his brother were used in twin experiments by Party of Words at some point before their takeover.

Here is my proof:

In the FP M manga, chapter 6, Gentaro has three meetings with different publishers (I assume?) about the manuscripts of his most recent novels. The synopsis for each are as follows:

(1)"the brotherly love between twins" (genre not specified)

(2) "the isolated struggle of a young man engulfed in the establishment's conspiracy" (which is a mystery book)

(3) "the elder of the twins stopping an organization from kidnapping and using people as test subjects" (which is a sci-fi book)

After the third one, the publisher comments that it’s a “very interesting fiction”, which Gentaro brushes off as “a stroke of luck”. However, the moment the publisher leaves, he sighs to himself and says “A fiction, huh..,”

So my theory here is that our Gentaro and his brother were involved in this kidnapping and being used as test subjects, and then Gentaro’s brother ultimately puts a stop to it by releasing the manuscript. 

We also know from Gentaro’s songs and from FP M+ chapter 7 that Gentaro best writes what he has experienced first hand, even if details of the final product have been altered to protect his and his brother’s identities.

My other piece of evidence, is that Rei and Party of Words then when on to      D E V E L O P   C L O N E S

In my opinion it makes sense idk. I know it’s probably not correct. In fact, I’m pretty sure DoD chapter 12 contradicts this? Because the Ramuda that we know already exists by the time Gentaro’s debut novel comes out? But it could also be that maybe Gentaro’s brother mainly wrote nonfiction and our Gentaro mainly writes fiction? So it would be a debut novel instead of a debut book/biography/etc.? Either that, or his brother had never actually published his works, and Gentaro took it upon himself to do so under his brother’s name? I guess only time will tell.

Either way, I’m excited to find out! Tbh I wouldn’t be surprised if we didn’t get the lore drop on this for a while, but I just wanted to put my thoughts out into the world! Thank you to @doppo-hifumi and @subway-midnight for listening to me rant about this story in our messages bbb,,, it gave me the courage to actually post it ;u;

[slugtranslation-hypmic]

Hihihi this is may be a weird question but is your opinion on the main hypmic cast?

In brief:

(Spoiler alert: It was not brief. Stuck under a cut for length)

Ichirou: He's a good kid. I wasn’t super into him at first, as main protagonists very rarely hold my interest, but I appreciate him now for the struggles he goes through and the growth he’s experienced across the series.

Jirou: Jirou is also a good kid in his own way. I didn’t know what to do with him for a while, but now I feel like I understand him too. I don’t think he quite gets what makes Ichirou be as loved as he is, nor does he really understand what makes people love him for who he is. But that’s okay. He’ll get it someday.

Saburou: If you had tasked me as a fourteen year old to create an idealized anime boy sona, I would have come up with someone shockingly similar to Saburou. I’m fond of him. He can be a bit mean at times in a very fourteen way, but deep down, he’s a good kid too. All the BBs are good kids.

Samatoki: I just can’t not make fun of him. His posturing is so ridiculous to me that I am constantly filled with the urge to clown on him. Oh, you think you’re so tough? You think you’re a big tough guy? Well, I’m just a little bastard; what are you going to do about it? But underneath the posturing, I do feel sorry for him and admire his strengths a lot. He’s a good kid too under a very funny exterior.

Juuto: I’m enjoying learning more about him from the BB/MTC+ manga, but I’m a bit surprised at how much of a dick he is even deep down. Still, he has plenty of good qualities too, and I like him in a vague sort of way. I’d throw fruit at him over a fence but wouldn’t put any malice in it.

Riou: What a delightful individual he is. The BB/MTC chapter about him really resonated with me. For a character so outwardly obsessed with the military, Riou has an incredible understanding of the weight of his actions and such a deep appreciation for every living thing. There’s a lot of his depth to his simplicity, and the level of care he exhibits towards everyone is delightful to witness. An absolute favorite among the cast.

Ramuda: Self-recognition through the other (derogatory). In all seriousness, Ramuda’s story arc and actions are great narrative tools for me to examine some things about myself and grow to try to be a better, more considerate person towards myself and others. I want to see him achieve freedom and happiness.

Gentarou: I enjoy Gentarou quite a bit, although I think he gets overshadowed by the other members of Fling Posse at times due to my sheer passion for Dice and Ramuda. He’s my favorite character to translate at the moment, which is apparently heresy among Hypmic translators. More than the sheer fun of writing his witty banter, I find him to be a very intriguing individual, and I’m excited to learn more about him. I want his happiness too.

Dice: Oh, Dice... He’s a really good kid in a way that the BBs could never be. He’s deceptively good, and he does choose to hurt other people and himself in ways that characters like Ichirou don’t. But he also finds the goodness in the oddest places, like a person finding a coin in a cracked sidewalk, and that’s delightful. His narrative is one of the most compelling for me. What a champion of a character.

Jakurai: Wow, what a good foil for Ramuda. Let me bounce narratives off of you like a mirror. I’m slowly learning to find him compelling in his own right, however. This is also a self-recognition through the other (derogatory) scenario, but there’s more of an emphasis on the derogatory part.

Hifumi: A funny little individual bearing a lot of sadness and a whole lot more courage. Like most of Matenrou, I admire him a lot, but I think that Matenrou resonates much more strongly with other people than they do for me, so I prefer to sit back and let other people appreciate them. I think he’s very brave and very fun to read/write.

Doppo: The biggest fucking mood in existence. When you move past the stereotypical aspects, you end up with another character who has a lot of deep flaws but also an incredible amount of courage. I’m excited to see where they go with him, but again, I’ll sit back and let others take the first row here.

Kuukou: Having already drafted Saburou, if you came back to me at age eighteen and asked me to make an idealized anime boy sona, you would probably have ended up with a character astonishingly like Kuukou. He brings me sheer joy. Astonishingly, I feel like Kuukou has exhibited the least growth out of any of the cast, and yet I do not mind a bit. He is the closest to the perfect man I have ever met. I would drop everything to be this dude’s homie if he existed in real life. Just a champion individual.

Juushi: Juushi’s a good kid. I’m very fond of him and like writing him, but much like Matenrou, I feel like he does a lot more for other people than he does for me. Therefore, much of how I work with him is less, “How do I enjoy this character as a reader?” and more “How do I nurture the traits about him that other people love?”

Hitoya: Hitoya strikes me as a damn good person with a lot of heart who sometimes lets his anger drive him a bit too much. He’s also utterly ridiculous, of course, but I try to write him with as much strength as possible to be present behind his words. He honestly seems like a great person to know in real life, not simply as a fictional character, as well.

Sasara: I have to clown on him to assert dominance. Joking aside, I admire the depths of his character and the growth he’s shown over the series. He can be pretty callous at times and goes to odd lengths to get what he wants, but I think he’s now starting to realize how much his actions affect other people. For a while I was really in his camp as a hardcore Sasara lover (back before he was a main cast member - I love writing quirky minor characters), but now I approach him with the idea mentioned above, ie how I can present him for other people.

Roshou: Whenever he’s around the rest of Dotsu Hon, I think he’s kind of an idiot. I mean that in the best way possible. It’s very endearing. Yet moments when he’s on his own are where I think he best shines, and I would love to see more solo material for him. He’s an incredibly good support character, and I admire his passion for his students.

Rei: I really enjoy asshole antagonists, which is why I liked Ramuda for a while before the clone story came up behind me and struck me into the ground with its mighty fists. Now Rei fills this role. I would love to learn more about him and team up with the Buster Bros to pelt him with rotten eggs in a fun bonding activity. I’m sure there is some strong backstory that will absolve him of at least some of his shittiness, but until now, I’m still not excusing his whole abandoning his children thing, not to mention the human trafficking thing he pulled with Ramuda.

Otome: I hate translating her, if only because she and Rei frequently talk about things in extremely vague terms that I have no context for. It’s hard to make her sound idiomatic in English while also not shooting myself in the foot by accidentally filling in the wrong information. But with that aside, she’s okay. I like her, I guess. Her motivations are pretty interesting.

Ichijiku: Ichijiku was written for people who are sexually attracted to women, and I’m not at all, so I 100% approach her in terms of her pull on other people. She’s fun on her own, though, and I’m impressed at her ability to walk in high heels. Her complete disrespect for everyone but Otome brings me no end of entertainment in reading and writing.

Nemu: YOU. Maybe this is some stupid toxic masculinity thing, but I always feel embarrassed speaking affectionately about male characters but not at all about female characters. Therefore Nemu gets all of my loveposting. She’s a wonderful girl! She has such a strong spirit, and I’m completely overjoyed that she’s making her own decisions and becoming her own character defined on her own terms. I want to watch her grow up big and strong. Fuck yes, baby girl! Fuck it up! I’m very proud of her.

[mc-doppomine]

Dunno why this came to mind...maybe calculating Jakurai’s deal here...Who knows but here I am imagining how much schooling these boys have gone through. 

As a note, I am not saying their schooling level as any jab to them. All people are different. Some would prefer going to school, some do not have the opportunity and some have other things to do. It really is many reasons why they would or wouldn’t go on. And I’m just guessing what I think they’ve done based off information we have of them. 

Buster Bros!!!

Ichiro I feel only completed compulsory school and some of high school. He was too busy supporting the orphanage and his brothers to really keep up with it. And considering Yorozuya Yamada is likely their only source of income, he hasn’t really gone back either. I don’t that particularly bothers Ichiro since while he wasn’t bad at school he wouldn’t say he liked it either. 

Jiro is at the age where he didn’t have to go to school anymore but Ichiro made him stay. As it was just better options for Jiro if he does finish school. He also doesn’t go to cram school as 1) he can’t stand school as is, 2) he likely goes to help Ichiro with the business and 3) there’s a chance they can’t afford to send him. Despite the latest drama tracks, I don’t see school being a point of contention between them even if Jiro doesn’t like school. I don’t see him pursuing a traditional higher education, if he even goes at all.

Saburo is still in compulsory school as far as I understand so it’s not really a question of if he goes. But obviously Ichiro would want him to stay. Especially him because he’s good at it and seems to like it. That and it might help Saburo’s social skills to have to be around kids his age. For the most of the same reasons, Saburo doesn’t do cram school either. If anything he probably could tutor if he didn’t get so easily frustrated with people. I do feel he could make it to the top schools when he gets older but I see an interest in going overseas for uni.

Mad Trigger Crew

Samatoki I don’t think went past compulsory schooling. He was too busy with yakuza stuff to really deal with school. I see him getting into a lot of fights over his background, namely badmouthing of his parents. He probably had Nemu stay though because he wanted her to have options. I think he’s really good with money even though he probably hasn’t had to worry about it for a long time

Jyuto I initially was gonna say did go to college but researching a little bit, he probably didn’t. He only would need to finish high school and pass exams. Which I feel he was prepared for. Like I think he’s been set on being a cop for a long time and worked for that. Which is why I’ll also go out on a limb and say that in high school this boy was a runner so he was also in shape for his training when he passed exams. I also think Jyuto was a good boy student.

Rio likely went into military service as soon as he could, which I believe is 18 over there. It’s a little harder to tell about how the service was since the world of hypmic is one that had another war, so it’s likely his time was busier than what it would be normally for someone in the navy. He absolutely could’ve gone to uni and come back to get a better rank but I don’t think Rio really cared about that aspect of it. (This man knows communications and some hacking, you cannot tell me he couldn’t have gone far) I will say he likely took advantage of his half-American status and is fluent in English as it would’ve been useful for joint exercises with the states. I think the dissolution of the navy really shot him in the foot but he’s just too resourceful to keep down with that.  

Fling Posse

Ramuda...obviously didn’t. And I don’t think his records would show anything. Like if it had to show anything, it would probably show him going to a super large school where it’s completely possible no one knows who the hell he was (because he was never there). And if he was based off someone, he likely had some of his credentials taken from them. He understand the culture of schooling though, I mean his style and personality does seem to draw girls high school age and older. 

Gentaro is pretty hard to imagine to be honest. I don’t see him enjoying his school life and being around classmates for an extended amount of time. And while I think he could’ve spent some time in academia in literary research, I also see him finding it way too stuffy for writing. But I think ultimately...he went to uni for a short time. For some reason I just don’t see him vibing with how the system is for it. 

Dice did not. I don’t think he finished high school although he could’ve if he wanted. But he probably avoids it because it’d be an easier way to keep track of him and run contrary to his stray sort of life style. 

Matenrou

Jakurai...is a doctor...I sure HOPE he went to school for his profession. So he studied some of the stuff you need for doctoring during his time as an assassin but he didn’t actually go into studying to be a doctor until he quit his killing at 23. He probably went into the national defense medical college, which seems to be 6 year program but you have an extra 2-3 years of compulsory service with it. I think he likely finished his compulsory service, at the latest, a year before the Dirty Dawg timeline. Or OR he faked his schooling and just knew the equivalent knowledge from his time as an assassin and was able to pass his exams and later studied whatever he lacked. He’s basically fully legally certified NOW, don’t worry...

Hifumi I just can’t see going past high school. Like I’ve always seen the incident happening in his last year of high school and it made it difficult for him to even finish. And considering he claimed in the first Matenrou drama track that he didn’t find a way to live with his phobia until he was 20...I don’t think he went. Not that he would’ve been interested in it. Hifumi is interested in what he likes and wouldn’t want to put the effort either way. I don’t think he really cares and he has more than enough skills (and money) to do just about whatever he wants.

Doppo likely went to uni. He couldn’t get into the real prestigious schools and knew he couldn’t so just went for wherever he could get into rather than wait to test again. I feel like his degree is in either accounting or business. I think he had a part-time while in school to pay for it since it seems like his family might not be as well off or he didn’t want to burden his parents (in a passing conversation I think he mentioned paying for his brother’s exams or schooling). For some reason I also can see him having a minor in biology because I see him either knowing a lot about plants or knowing a lot about marine life. What kind of person just thinking of a water flea for like a small creature?

Dotsuitare Hompo

Sasara I feel like he didn’t go past high school. Not that he couldn’t. Just that he didn’t find a need to? Not when he was set on going into comedy. Like it was either make it or be trapped with his family. And he was hard noooope. 

Rosho....is a teacher? I sure HOPE he went for his teaching certificate. I don’t think he was going to initially and might not have while he was doing the comedy game with Sasara? Their time line is a little fuzzy, I haven’t found the indicator of if Rosho and Sasara disbanded before he went to MCD or after. If it was before, then yes he went to school after they disbanded. If not, then he was in school while doing the manzai thing. So yeah dual major of mathematics (or statistics) and education (he didn’t need both but I have faith in him).

Rei most definitely went to fucking uni. This bastard would let you think he didn’t but he did. He’s probably a fucking doctor or just shy of it. Drives me mad. Why am I sure? Because if Rei is behind the hypnosis mics. As in the designer and/or inventor of it, he is a scientist or engineer of some type. I see him having a degree in either biotechnology or neuroscience. I learn towards the latter because I feel like he also got a minor in psychology (or y’know what, business is possible too for a minor). Just to mess with people.

Bad Ass Temple

Kuko I feel was the same as Ichiro in that he went to high school but not necessarily finishing it. I don’t believe he would’ve had to...if anything he’s gone back to his teachings at his temple. Yet it seems he doesn’t do that either so I’m not sure. I just don’t think he did anything past high school. 

Jyushi I think he might’ve just finished high school? I don’t know if he was just finishing or he’s soon to be doing exams. But I think he’s going to finish regardless. Y’know I feel like Jyushi would’ve liked going to uni. I can’t think of what he’d go to school for though! Would it be adding too much work to a passion if he did something with music theory? 

Hitoya...is a lawyer? So yeah? And you have to wonder if Hitoya is a masochist or loves to learn or what have you. Because he was in medical school WITH Jakurai. And then when they part ways, he quits and then goes into LAW. Are you kidding me? Hitoya, Hitoya please...I looked it up, he HAS to be a masochist! Law in Japan is super hard to get into! It has one of the most difficult bar exams to exist! What are you doing, man??? Although...I think Hitoya is still fairly new as a lawyer though because him starting when I assume Jakurai started school at 23, would have him only being fully practicing for 5 years. And that’s assuming he dropped out the first year and not later...which would only shrink he years outside. Unless whatever he got for his bachelors was applicable for law too (behavioral science?)...either way, yes he’s done it and he sure does do a lot to beat a guy that doesn’t even know they’re competing.

hypmic headcanons

since nobody on my instagram appreciates me, i’m going to put them here, and it’ll be like a master post i can add onto that way anyway (which is convenient for me, because i keep adding on… yeah, it’s bad lmao. my notes document can only take so much) all of it will be under the line so you guys don’t just have a big ass post clogging your feed! to whoever my 4 followers are

starting with fling posse…

---

Ramuda Amemura

He’s trans.

He has a superiority complex to hide his inferiority complex.

He also likely has a little bot of a god complex… Just a tiny bit… Not to the point it’d endanger his life, but to the point he can never admit he’s wrong (I suppose this can also count as the superiority complex).

He also has a little bit of a schoolboy crush on Dice… that has lasted far longer than he’d ever like to admit – not that he’d ever admit it in the first place – and he gets jealous over Dice.

He started his whole thing with girls, whatever it is, as a power trip, which also explains why he likes to cause so much chaos.

Since he used to smoke, he started candy as a way to stop smoking and it slowly replaced his smoking habit (as I have yet to see him smoke otherwise, but keep in mind I’m not far into the manga and mostly I’m going off the ARB story).

---

Gentaro Yumeno

All writers are perfectionists (I’d know as one).

He’s probably very particular about the details and doesn’t like doing things without a plan.

He’s the lyric write for Fling Posse’s raps and does not enjoy making up lyrics on the spot; however he can if he must – This is also why he carries the book everywhere.

I honest to god don’t feel like he’s of this world and whatever his actual form is (irony in his rap name?), it scared Ramuda enough to create Fling Posse, so here they are.

---

now for the dice ones… it’s gonna be long!

---

Dice Arisugawa

He is, unfortunately, very oblivious to romantic approaches – especially from close friends such as his division members, for he’s been with them for so long that he can never imagine them falling in love with him.

He has abandonment issues/a fear of abandonment because his mother left him.

Speaking of his mother, Dice likely knows how to do “noble” things because he was raised by a politician; i.e. how to play piano and stuff like that.

Adding on top of that, I feel like Dice has an accumulation of many different skills from being all over the place – He learned how to do card tricks by watching others, and he probably learned bird calls from spending time with Rio.

He undoubtedly has ADHD (as a person with ADHD myself, you cannot tell me I am wrong)!

He’s well aware that’s he a leech, but he can’t stop himself because the addiction is stronger and he feels terrible about it; it’s why he often begs instead of anything else that would fit his character more.

He’s a very talkative person and often rambles to get his thoughts organized.

He doesn’t like being put into awkward situations or forced into silence because he is used the buzz of a casino and a busy city.

Relating to the ADHD canon, Dice puts his life on line not only for the thrill of it, but to keep his mind off of thoughts, and it’s also why he gambles; so he can focus on one thing.

He is numb to change because he’s a gambler.

He is very good at adapting to a new environment.

He doesn’t like being looked down up and that’s why he started gambling; to prove that he’s worth something.

He uses humor to cope if he can’t get his mind off of things with the thrill of gambling.

---

Extras (Fling Posse all together)

Dice has weird limbs, so clothing fits him weird, and Ramuda started making clothes for them because of that.

Ramuda chased after Dice after he stole his signature parka and the Fling Posse star was embroidered on later by Ramuda after the formation of Fling Posse.

Ramuda likely pulls whatever strings he has access to to make life easier for his division members (not that it stops them from getting into trouble, that is).

Gentaro spends a lot of time away when writing and likely forgets he’s even alive during those periods, so his division members make sure he’s still taking care of himself when he gets like that.

They all piss each other off, but in a platonic love kind of way.

---

moving onto matenrou! my favorite division <3

---

Jakurai Jingui

Oh, my poor man’s so tired. He just needs a long break and a spa day; speaking of this, he likely doesn’t ask for help often – it’s the messiah complex he undoubtedly has.

His hair is too long for him to be taking care of it himself, and it definitely looks in fantastic condition, so he definitely takes good care of it – I just don’t think he takes care of it himself; I think he enlists the help of his division members (as I headcanon that Matenrou is in a poly relationship).

Jakurai’s matureness can sometimes get in the way of other things, such as emotional moments, and he can come off as cold or distant when he doesn’t mean to come off that way.

Unlike the other divisions, Jakurai wanted to really separate from his past, and that’s why he named his division Matenrou instead of reusing something from the past. He also probably doesn’t like talking about the past.

His hair is naturally silver, but the lighter shades that are nearly white underneath was caused by stress.

He gets cold quickly, which is why he always keeps the lab coat on, and it’s also why he wears a turtleneck.

Jakurai does live in the same apartment as Doppo and Hifumi, but he’s always so busy that he often can’t get there, so he ends up sleeping at the hospital; he also has a separate apartment of his own that’s closer to the hospital if he has free time, but he’s not off work/off work but still on call.

---

Doppo Kannonzaka

Man, the first thing I thought when I saw him was that he has a choking kink. Enough said. He also likely has a praise kink.

If he didn’t have social anxiety and wasn’t so busy, he’d also probably be going over to Rio’s camp a lot. I think it’s because he’s so overworked that he doesn’t care about what’s in the food; as long as he gets it.

He’s probably passed out from exhaustion more than once and just got used to it.

Despite all his problems, he definitely wants to be known and he wants his name out there; he wants to be just like the other two and he definitely looks up to them already, but he aspires to be them.

He is so thankful for his divison members and he’s glad that they accepted him.

---

Hifumi Izanami

Hifumi is a classic case of “fake it till you make it”; I really don’t know how he became one of the most popular hosts in Shinjuku, but it’s definitely about the fake confidence and the jacket is a comfort object for him that allows him to have that confidence.

He cooks all the time for his division members and he uses the catches from fish all the time, too. He even brings the lunches to their works for them.

---

Extras

Since Hifumi’s always out so late, the others make sure he has everything he needs for whenever he wakes up and sometimes they wait for him.

They’re all in a poly relationship and I refuse to believe anything else; I mean, have you seen those “my room” dialouge in ARB? Fruity.

They probably all love to cuddle whenever they get the chance because they can’t do it often.

They definitely set up one day of the month for all of them to just be together.

---

buster bros time!

---

Ichiro Yamada

This may just be the Ichiro simp in me, but I think he has a very nice tummy that’d be nice to lay on; like a soft one if that makes any sense to anybody other than me.

He’s a very friendly person and if you’re close friends with him, he’s definitely loyal; he’d be willing to drop anything to help you kind of loyal, like he is to his brothers – all that, except the willing to die part.

I think he gets flustered easily and doesn’t know how to respond to compliments. That’s also probably the Ichiro simp in me.

Although he has to stop his brothers from ripping out each other’s throats all the time, he’s very proud of them and of their achievements, no matter what they are. He’s willing to praise them even for the tiniest things to make up for his absence in their lives.

He probably has a terrible sleeping schedule, but he could probably operate on pretty much anything. Two hours of sleep? That’s not an issue for him; he’s used to it.

He’s likely a cheapskate when it comes to himself, but when it comes to his brothers, he spares no expense if he can.

---

Saburo Yamada

He has a superiority complex. I mean, just look at how he acts with Jiro – that’s enough proof right there.

He got into hacking and all of that computer stuff because it was interesting to him; he’s probably pursuing a career in it, considering just how good he is at it. I feel like he’d make a good white hat hacker that tests your website security, like Alma in Va-11 Hall-A.

Call him a library, because he holds grudges for years.

I think he just likes picking arguments because he think it’s funny and there’s nothing better to do when you’re stuck with your brothers (as somebody with a sibling myself, I can attest to that).

---

Jiro Yamada

Anger issues. Yep, that’s it. That’s the headcanon.

Man probably goes dumpster diving to see what kind of treasures he can find; his room is probably full of that kind of junk.

He probably has greasy hair. It doesn’t matter how much he cleans it, it’s just greasy (as somebody with the same issue, go clean your pillows Jiro).

---

Extras

Ichiro has to hold Jiro back from just punching Saburo all the time.

God, somebody save Ichiro from his siblings; with how much they bicker, he probably has taken so much ibuprofen to stop headaches in his life that he should be considered dead from an overdose.

Despite being assholes to each other, they all help each other out – Saburo helps Jiro with his work, Jiro helps Saburo with whatever he can’t do, and Ichiro takes care of the rest. It’s the only thing keeping their bond together.

---

mad trigger crew, my beloved.

---

Rio Mason Busujima

Rio’s very stoic and that often doesn’t break, so it’s very rare to see a smile on his face. He has different smiles for different things too – there’s the business one; one so he doesn’t look as intimidating, and the actual genuine smile that’s very rare to see, but it happens when somebody appreciates his food.

Rio’s not good at understanding emotions and it takes him awhile to process emotions; he goes quiet in these moments and it can be confusing for those who don’t know him, but once he’s thought everything out, he’s very smart about responding.

He’ll never fully adjust to a life outside of the navy and military.

Opposite to Dice, he finds the buzz of a city to be too distracting for his thoughts and he enjoys his solitude, but he doesn’t mind company at all.

Due to how his unit was broken up, he refuses to abide by H law and keeps his gun on him. Even Rio can be spiteful. However, he mostly uses it for hunting, which is why he’s so far out in the forest.

He definitely has a lot of scars and that’s why he often wears his fatigues; he doesn’t wana come off as off-putting. His cards without the jacket did him so dirty. Of course he’d have scars from fighting in World War 3.

He can come up with strategies on the spot and is a very quick-thinker when it comes to combat.

Despite how ruthless he is when it comes to rap battles and being an ex-navy, he’s actually a very gentle soul.

I feel like he’s asexual, but homoromantic.

---

Samatoki Aohitsugi

He only uses the bad guy persona as a way to be left alone, but he’s actually a very kind person.

Despite being a yakuza, he actually abides to the H law and it’s probably only because of Nemu (however, this is only based off of the anime, so I can’t say for certain, but I haven’t seen anything in the manga disproving otherwise yet).

I just feel like he eats a lot throughout the day. I can’t explain this one, but he has the vibes.

He also knows how to cook quite well himself, and he does it for his division members sometimes.

---

Jyuto Iruma

He’s very cocky because he knows he can get away with things; I mean, he’s the authorties, why wouldn’t he get cocky about what he can do? However, it’s somewhat annoying to Samatoki.

If he wasn’t a gay bastard, Samtoki and Rio probably would’ve been arrested long ago. Thankfully for them, he is a gay bastard.

He likes looking good no matter what; it helps his confidence, so he dresses up to go out anywhere.

His glasses are probably just reading glasses.

He likes spending money on expensive things.

---

Extras

Samatoki and Jyuto are in a relationship. They’re so fruity that I’m sure I don’t have to explain this one.

Samatoki doesn’t approve of Rio dating Dice at all and it’s only because of Jyuto that Dice is still alive.

Rio is pretty much their marriage counselor; he has to constantly deal with them bickering, so of course he is. He’s pretty much the adopted child to save their marriage.

Tease

Day 13 : Vibrator w/ Ramuda Amermura

Warnings/Other Kinks: Edging, usage of the name oneesan, handcuffs

YA YA YA MINNA GENKI ♡

I know this isn't bnha but I've had the song Drops stuck in my head for a month now. I love all the hypmic boys and somehow this short king little shit stole my attention. Ramuda Amemura is from a multi-media project called Hypnosis Mic. It's a series of songs and drama cds (that has now expanded to a manga and an anime!!) about a world where people battle using rap battles. It's honestly pretty cheesy, but damn do I love it!

Disclaimer : 18+ years or older to read. All characters are 20+

For someone who played so damn cute all the time, he sure played as a wolf so well. 

"I-it's too much!" Your voice came out between heated pants and whines as the toy vibrated against you faster now. What kind of toy was this? How could he even get it to go this fast? You had sworn the last time he cranked it up should have been the max but it just kept going. It whirred between your folds, back and forth as the monster seated before you would continue to brush it back against your clit whenever you seemed to relax a bit, and then before you could climax, it was on the move again. "Pleasseeee, lemme cum."

"Awww, but we haven't even gotten to the fun part yet, oneesan!"

He was a bubbly, 5'1", cotton candy colored monster, but a monster nonetheless. 

Ramuda had you pinned like a butterfly tacked to a board - pretty and stuck. He had your wrists handcuffed and bound over your head. And to keep your lower half locked down, he had taken to straddling one of your thighs, while one hand kept your other leg up and stretched open and his other operated the surprisingly powerful vibrator he danced between your legs. 

Never in your life would you have thought that this man would have been as much of a powerhouse in bed as he was turning out to be, and yet, here he was, having spent a full half an hour dragging you right to the precipice of climax only to yank you back down before you could get to the other side. He had done all that while looking down at you with a smile that would have put the sun to shame with the brightness it put out. He still had a candy sucker back behind his teeth, the stick poking out from his lips as he grinned. So cute and sweet but he had you in tears.

He had the toy on your clit again and you gave a full on yelp, causing a giggle to escape Ramuda's lips. "It sure looks like it feels good. But if you cum without me, I might be so sad, I'll cry." You would have found it ironic if you were in any mindset to think about anything other than your desire to orgasm. You were starting to see stars bursting behind your blurry eyes as your legs trembled and shivered, trying to thrash away from the hold he had on you. It wasn't surprising that the leg he was seated on didn't actually move much, but the grip his other hand had on her thigh was a lot stronger than she would have guessed. The more you struggled, the more bruising his grasp on you became but, your lust-filled brain was too preoccupied to care.

"Then get inside me," you argued, trying to get him to speed it up so you could find that tipping point. You could feel the pleasure bubbling inside of you -pressure rising up, up, up. And then he would tug the vibrator down again, away from that sweet spot and you were left whimpering. You jerked against the handcuffs holding you in place, your eyes squeezing shut as the toy teased you with slow strokes along your slit. You just wanted relief. Your body was begging for the monstrous boy that held you captive, your cunt clamping down onto empty air. 

"But aren't you having fun? You look so so cute right now. You can handle more, right?" He prodded, bright aquamarine gaze fixed on you. It was a puppy dog sort of look but you certainly didn't trust the innocence behind it as he dropped the speed back down on the vibrations but picked a more intense pulse pattern. The high you had been working up was starting to drop but kept you just enough on edge. You were a roller coaster that never actually had that big drop. Just coasting along and only small bumps to help you keep momentum. "Come on, oneesan," he leaned himself over you more, bubblegum bangs dropping from his face as he stretched over you so he could hover. You remembered once reading about how pink was a physically charged color - there was something about it being a color that represented sex or something, right? Maybe his hair color did fit his personality but just not in the charming way you had first imagined it to. "A little longer, kayy?"

You wanted to say yes, some part of your brain wanted this man to give you the rewards of being patient. But the more urgent part took over and you whined. "Ramuda, please?" You urged just as he grazed your clit again, causing your whole body to arch like a cat in heat, rising off the bed. "More, please!"

You were too enraptured with the teasing he provoked to notice the sparks of darkness swirling into a gaze. You didn't notice that he had taken his sucker out of his mouth until the next time you whined out, he had shoved the sticky treat into your lips instead - overwhelming you with the taste of strawberries and his saliva. Your whimpering almost had you choking on it. "Shut up." His voice was an octave lower now - a pitch you hadn't heard from him before. A pitch that didn't match the sugary expression that had been staring at you all this while. It almost sounded dangerous, but the rumbling octave sent a dizzying vibration through you as he regained his hold back on your leg. "Suck on that and just take it already." A simple command, but there was a darkness that edged into his tone that you refused to fight with. Which is why, trying to hold back your mewling for more, you took the sucker between your lips, letting the messy taste of sugar coat your mouth even as he refocused the attention of the toy back onto that spot you craved. Your eyes, still glassy with tears, fluttered back to Ramuda only to see he had a tender, almost boyish smile back onto his lips. From that deep, caution-rearing voice, to his usual, playful laugh. The way he looked at you now made you wonder if you imagined him telling you to shut up.

"Thats so much better, oneesan! Im going to make you feel so good!"

Rainy day confession (Ichiro x Reader)

Requested by one of the hypmic blogs I follow cause they wanted to read it :p This is part of a bigger fic that ill finish later So here you go!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Word count: 1199

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“I'm coming for ya!!” Ichiro runs after you. His long legs picking up speed he catches up to you in no time. He then scoops you up in his arms like you're nothing and carries you. “Got you!” He swings you around making the both of you dizzy.

“Ichiro!” You laugh pounding on his chest. “Let me down!” “No way. I won so I'm taking my prize home.” You looked up swore there was a faint tint of red to his cheeks but said nothing.

“I'm not letting you go so hold on.” You roll your eyes and wrap your arms around his neck as he walks down the street. “Are you going to do this the whole way back?” “Yup.” “Ichi-”

You felt a drop of water fall on your nose, then your cheek. You and Ichiro look up as the rain started to fall then he sprinted. “AH go faster!” “It's just a little rain. You're not going to melt are you?” He prays for Jiro and Saburo to be gone when you arrive. Luckily you reach his place before getting too soaked.

He throws you onto the couch then sits down next to you. “Phew.” He sighs. “You must be tired carrying me all that way.” “Pssh, that was nothing.” You lift up his arm and inspect it. “What are you doing?” You study him. “Doesn't look like you're hiding any muscle under those baggy clothes of yours.”

“Hey! I got plenty of muscle!” Ichiro lifts up his sleeve and flexes showing off his impressive biceps. Your eyes widen and you blush. He pulled his sleeve back down and slumped on the couch, embarrassed. A moment goes by when he realizes you're still in your wet clothes.

“Y/N you must be cold!” Ichiro jumps up and runs to go get you a towel and an old shirt and sweatpants. "Here!" He tosses you the towel and clothes then proceeds to ditch his sweater and toss it on the floor. The dampness of his shirt made it stick to his skin and you can't help but stare at the outline of his figure.

“Heh, like what you see?” “W-what? No shut up!” Busted... you try and play it off. “But you were looking” He smirks raising a brow. “Was not!” You fold your arms trying to be defensive. “Now hurry up and dry off or you're going to get a cold.” “Yeah yeah, I'll be right back.” You pout picking up the towel and clothes before heading to the washroom to change.

You stripped off your clothes and dried yourself off before putting on the shirt and sweatpants he gave you. You take in the smell of his shirt. It was nice.

Your hair was still a dewy mess. Smirking you walk back into the living room and shake your wet hair in Ichiros face. “H-hey!” He pushes you away narrowing his eyes. “Oh, you're in for it now.” “AH!” Before you had the chance to escape he pulls your face into his wet hair rubbing it around. "Noooo! Ichirooo!" You whine and push him away. "Meanie!" "You started it." He throws a towel on your head. "Better?" He laughs. "Ugh..." Even after that playful event, Ichiro's nerves came rushing in.

“Hey, Y/N...” “Hmm?” “You know I appreciate you right?” He scratches his head nervously. “I would hope so.” You giggle. “Why what's up?” “I just wanted you to know that...” You turn to him intrigued.

“Come on I know you Ichiro, something else is going on. You've been acting weird all day.” He turns to face you, his head is down and his hands are resting in his lap bunched up in a fist. His shoulders are tense. You lay a hand on his shoulder somewhat snapping him out of his state.

“Hey, Ichiro.” He takes a breath looking up at you. “Y/N, our friendship is important to me. And maybe I felt this way for a long time..." He struggles to find the right words. "Years ago when you told me how reckless I was being and how that threatened our friendship, it made me realize how lucky I was to have you by my side and what that meant to me." He pauses. "So, maybe it was then when I realized I liked you." He looks down again. Alright Ichiro don't chicken out now. He mentally gives himself a pep talk. You touch his hand and your eyes meet once more. He takes a breath.

“Can I kiss you?” You smile then nod. Both leaning in your lips meet in a seemingly perfect kiss. Crossing the friend zone into something more. Taking the next step. He pulls away not knowing whether or not to continue. Ichiro was a gentleman and always was attentive to you.

You throw your arms around his neck in which he initiates the next kiss, except your noses bump before your lips do making you both giggle. He tries again tilting his head a little more, then his hands find your waist. You stay glued to him, both getting used to this new kind of closeness. Your stomach flutters from his touch. Ichiro's heart is racing, his mind blank. All he can do is get lost in this moment with you. With your feelings out in the open, you seem carefree and the two of you pull away.

He looks at you in awe. You beam unable to hide the smile on your face. Placing another kiss on your forehead you lay back into his chest as his arms wrap around you. You enjoy each other's company as a thoughtful silence hung over you. Then Ichiro spoke up.

“I was worried this wouldn't work out.” “Really?” He takes a second to think. “I didn't want to ruin our friendship...” You pout at his words. “Ichiro.” You sit up and place your hand on his shoulder. “You couldn't ruin our friendship if you tried.” You reassured him. That weight lifted off him he still couldn't help but feel slightly awkward.

“I almost did...” “That was years ago. Look how much you've grown. Look at what you've become.” “Yeah well, I still have a ways to go.” “We all do.” He smiles. “I've always liked that about you, Y/N.” “Hmm?” “You are always good for a pep talk.” “Of course!” You both laugh as he pulls you into his arms. There's just something about being out in the fresh air and Ichiro's warmth that put you to sleep. He presses another kiss to your forehead and dozes off with you in his arms.

Bonus

“Did you tell her?” Jiro and Saburo stare at Ichiro waiting with bated breath. “Yeah, I told her.” Ichiro blushes and crosses his arms. “Yeah alright!” Saburo pumps his fist in the air. “I knew she couldn't resist your moves bro!” Jiro pats him on the back. “Yeah, whatever ok?” “You did kiss her right?” Jiro gawks. Ichiro's face turning redder. “I did alright?! It went well. Now I'm going to bed.” “Aww, goodnight Ichi-nii.” Jiro and Saburo pushed their cheeks together making kissy noises.

Thank you for reading!!

Can I request for your HypMic Kidnapping AU how Jakurai, Rei, and Samatoki would react to having their legs broken/tendons destroyed (or even amputated, up to you) after trying (and failing) to escape? Sorry if this is weird/uncomfortable...

Anon.... this is 100% OWO I need to write more torture. It puts me in a much better mood!

. . . 

Jakurai

Jakurai is so pretty and even-tempered that you don’t feel a need to go too far. He’s smart enough to learn his lesson the first time. Even though he tried to escape, you’re kind enough to give him something to numb the pain while you slice his tendons. And to his credit, Jakurai stays remarkably calm. His expression is one of resigned misery, but he doesn’t struggle. He’s slowly coming to realize that he won’t be leaving you. Once you’ve done something like this, his chances of ever getting away have dropped astronomically. He’ll just have to adapt to the best of his ability and avoid any more undue harm. 

Samatoki

You start out just by breaking his legs. If it doesn’t work, you can always go all the way later. A solid, heavy, metal baseball bat does the job in no time. Even with Samatoki’s impressive pain tolerance, he screams quite a bit when you bring the bat down on his shins until you know they’ll never heal right. And Samatoki knows exactly how bad this is. He throws up twice when you’re doing the breaking, both from pain and the fear of how fucking doomed he knows he is now. Without functional legs, there’s no way he’s getting away from you. He’s permanently stuck in this nightmare. 

Rei

With this crafty conman, you have to go to extreme lengths. If he’s tried to escape once, he’ll do it again. You decide that the only way to make sure he behaves is to take his legs off altogether. And, of course, anesthesia is for those who haven’t gone and displeased you. Rei does everything possible to talk you out of going so far, but you don’t listen. Deeper and deeper dread starts sinking into him as you ready your tools, and by the time you start cutting, he knows he’s screwed. With no idea of how he’ll ever escape, Rei descends from tense resentment to pure panic and horror. 

[hypmic-writings]

(I feel supid because I have read the whole list 3 times to decide on the 1. One)But anyway..Happy 2 year blog anniversary❤❤❤❤❤❤Hope you continou doing as great as you curently are❤Now,as I said,could I get Either Samatoki or Ichiro(whichever one you feel like) with 1.?S/o is insecure about her stretch marks to be exact(Fem or Nonbinary,you pick).You dont have to do this if you dont want to!Happy anniversaryyyy❤❤

1. “You look stunning tonight”

I chose Samatoki because I’m planning on doing an Ichiro one next! Thank you for the support! This was a really cute prompt; I think we should all love and accept our bodies no matter what! Stretch marks are totally normal and wonderfully unique! I’m sure the hypmic guys would love all bodies unconditionally too! Enjoy!

Headcanon: Samatoki likes to run his fingers along your stretch marks because he likes the way they feel under his fingers. He also uses them as markers to pinpoint all of the different spots on your body that he knows are sensitive~

⋘ ──── ∗ ⋅◈⋅ ∗ ──── ���

You gazed at yourself in the mirror and frowned, running your hands along your stomach and staring down at your thighs. Thin and thick lines ran across your skin, some deeper than others, but all looked out of place to you. You pinched your skin and tugged it taught, imagining what it would be like to have your skin smoothed out.

You were pulled from your thoughts as the door opened and Samatoki walked into the bedroom. He glanced over at you and then quickly looked away when he saw you standing in front of the full length mirror in nothing but your bra and underwear.

“Oh, sorry, are you changing?” Samatoki asked, hurriedly. “I can leave if you want,” he added, turning towards the bathroom. You let out a small chuckle and shook your head.

“It’s fine, Toki,” you said, a sad smile on your face. “Nothing you haven’t seen before, after all.”

You turned back to the mirror, looking down at your body when you noticed Samatoki walking over to you. He lazily wrapped his arms around your waist from behind and met your gaze inside the mirror.

“I like the view,” he purred, smirking slightly as he pressed a kiss to your temple. “You look stunning tonight.”

Your smile faded a bit and your eyes dropped down to the stretch marks you had been staring at moments before.

“It’s okay, you don’t have to say things like that,” you laughed dryly. You tried to mask the sadness in your voice but even Samatoki, who was not the best at picking up on your emotions, could instantly tell that something was bothering you. His eyebrows furrowed but he didn’t let go of his hold on you as he scoffed.

“What the hell do you mean? Of course, I do, I’m your boyfriend after all. It’s my job to make sure you know how beautiful you are,” he stated, aggressively complimenting you.

You didn’t know how to respond and you didn’t want to stare at your skin any longer so you pulled yourself away from his arms and away from the mirror, walking over to the bed and sitting down on the edge. Samatoki’s eyes followed you closely, intense and filled with a mixture of confusion and annoyance.

You didn’t want to meet his gaze and opted to stare down at your thighs that pushed together, seemingly mocking you with their markings.

“Something’s bothering you,” Samatoki stated as he followed you and sat down beside you on the bed. You crossed your arms over your chest, suddenly feeling extremely exposed.

“No, I-I’m fine, it’s just…” you trailed off, wondering how to express your feelings. Samatoki waited for you to finish and when you didn’t, he turned towards you closer.

“Just what?” he asked, trying to remain calm. You played with your fingers as you finally gave a sigh.

“How can you think my body is beautiful?” you asked, your voice cracking a bit as you brought your gaze up to his eyes. “I have all these horrible stretch marks everywhere and they’re so gross and I hate. How do they not bother you?” you exclaimed in a pained voice.

Your throat was dry and you immediately stopped talking, knowing that if you continued the tears would soon follow. Samatoki sat beside you with wide eyes at your sudden proclamation.

“What are you talking about?” he suddenly asked, his voice quieter than you had expected. He looked down at your stomach with confusion and then at your thighs. “These marks are just part of your body, right?”

You stared at him blankly, not knowing how to respond to his words as you weakly nodded.

“Well, your body is perfect to me so don’t talk about yourself like that, got it?” he stated, his tone snappy but his eyes filled with sincerity. “The marks you have make your body unique. Anyone who tells you they’re ugly or bad can fuck right off! Your body is fine just the way it is with all of the stretch marks and everything.” he added, slightly more passionately.

You had been staring at him with an ache in your heart, but you felt your fears begin to melt at his words. He thought you were beautiful. No, more than that, he thought you were perfect. His words brought on the tears that had been threatening before and at the sight of your reaction Samatoki immediately paled.

“H-hey, what’s with that face? Why are you crying?” he asked, suddenly wondering if he had said something wrong.

Even Samatoki could admit that he wasn’t the best with his words, being more of a man of action, but now he was flustered at the thought that he might have made you feel even worse. He stared at you with desperate concern as he tried to think of how to best comfort you.

You let out a small, choked laugh, a single tear falling onto your cheek as you watched your boyfriend panic before you.

“It’s okay, I’m okay, I’m just touched,” you said, wiping your cheek. “Thank you, Toki,” you added, scooting closer to wrap your arms around your boyfriend in a grateful hug. “You have no idea how good it feels to hear you say all that,” you said, hiding your head in his chest.

You could feel Samatoki physically relax at your words as he wrapped an arm around you holding you close to him. He breathed a small sigh of relief and tilted his head back a bit.

“You shouldn’t hold back your feelings like that, stupid,” he grumbled, gently patting the top of your head. “If you’re feeling bad about something just tell me next time so I can kick the ass of all of your bad thoughts,” he added with a grunt.

You chuckled a little and shook your head, glancing up at him and smiling.

“I don’t think that’s how it works.”

“I’ll kick the ass of anything that says you’re not perfect!”

21. What characters get slept on? Who deserves more love?

I have no idea again.... lol I am not like in every corner of the fandom so I'll say mtc again. I feel like theres not that many mtc stans out there... where are you? Specifically rio and jyuto tho, I feel like most people like samatoki the most... understandable but I feel like all my boys deserve love... oh also the girls, tho I understand why not everyone is super into them lol they have like no content to their name.. it would be hilarious if they had like a chuoh girl hang out or something lol

22. Do you have any HypMic merch? What do you wanna get?

I have 2 posters!!! One is of the anime and the other of like all the charas and stuff.

What wouldnt I want to get lol? I would like to own a manga volume particularly from the tdd or bat/dh manga (or all of them 👀) I would also like to see one of the stage plays or own that live performance cd that came out. Also I'll find it hilarious to own one of their perfume bottles lol I would like to have anything I could get my hands on tbh.

23. About your favorite character -why do you love them?

Sjsjsisk this is going to be long balls again...

Ok so I'll do my favorites that I mentioned bc I dont have only one. So I love hifumi because I love his attitude, at the start i thought he was a little vain bc of the dont stop the party lyrics, and i like vain charas so I liked him on principle but then when it was a bit of a cover up it's like :0 i honestly adore bubbly, silly, loud characthers like him, I like how hes so efficient and positive and cute and like caring or when he gets carried away with things, i like that too, reminds me of myself in a sense. Hes just great and I admire his will power to fight over his fear of women.

Next jyushi, I love how hes like a huge cry baby and gets upset about small stuff, it makes me feel better about myself lol, besides its admirable how he also wants to fight and get stronger!!! How inspiring!! I love his vkey persona it's so cute!!! I love dramatic charas like him and I like how once in the presence of some one he know he just mellows down, its soooo cute!! I really love his normal voice, specially when hes like whining about something.

Next Otome, ok so I know i said jiro before and trust me i love him to death but ill do Otome 1st. Ok so i like how shes so short, and i like how distant she seems from everything, likes shes running the party and yet shes just like sitting... i feel like I like her more of in a story sense than in general characther wise, shes just surprisingly amusing to me like shes hilarious and shes also super pretty so yeah. Lol my love for her could be described by: girl hot and girl you're really weird. I see her under a stethoscope just like how she sees the people participating in the drb.

Ok last jiro!!! I also love his attitude, he's silly and passionate, friendly and a good brother. I like how he's a little "dumb" I find it nice. I like how despite how much he fights with saburo he cares so much for him!! All his songs slap and I really liked the bazillion ichiro references he dropped, I'm glad that his characther is moving on from idolizing him, good work to my boy!!

24. Drop a headcanon for your favorite character.

Hifumi: :0 gender fluid hiumi!! Gender fluid hifumi! He has adhd and ocd, I've also seen a post about how he could be autistic so why not? He likes watching asmr and made a channel himself that doppo watches religiously. He is a verbal stimmer. Less of a headcanon but a prayer but his sister is still alive (think of the wonders it could do for his chara)

Otome: shes a demi girl!! She and Rei fake dated for convenience and it was the worst period of their lifes (I know theres no chance where that would happen but I find it funny) I cant quite pick it but he feels weirdly neurodivergent to me so yeah.

Jyushi: nonbinary jyushi!! Hes also neurodivergent, I also think they're latine!! I think it would be funny if he wasnt that good at speaking spanish tho, lol rip to him.

Jiro: he has adhd, and is a a demiboy. I think it would be funny how now that he is getting over idolizing ichiro he had to come true and be like: ichi-nii I actually dont like this anime you like. Lol testing the BB bonds once more.

25. Do you like any of the side characters?

Mmmm yeah sort off. I like Urumi a bit, like shes an important person to Jiro and I appreciate her help in this recent drama cd, shes also really pretty. Ghhh it annoys me how much of a stereotype she is tho and how they treat her.... so mean.

I like Honobono a bit as well but she also does some things that irk me a bit.. Admittedly considering her crimes against hifumi I thought I would dislike her way more!! it's mainly bc I find her voice nice and her raps always pop off, the lyrics are always nice and she carries herself super well.

After that I dont think theres any other ones.. I havent seen the anime at all but those love alien bitches dont look that bad.

Cutting this again bc boy dont I talk to much, anyways, hopefully I'll be done soon ;)

⚡ Important Notice Regarding the Blog ⚡

So, hello - it's been a long while and I am so sorry for that. I never expected this blog to actually become something as big as it is and there was a lot of growth in a short while which scared me a lot. I made this blog on a whim and then within a short period of like 2 months I was sitting at around 400 followers, which doesn't seem like a lot but I don't like being known at all. I really just pushed this into limbo to "deal" with it. It was supposed to be a short hiatus so I can gather myself and try to get through the things that I had in the inbox but then I just never came back.

I am coming back to write again, but hopefully this time I can prepare better for it. I have been considering coming back and doing some of the requests in the inbox, but I realized that was what I was avoiding this whole time.

I deleted everything in the inbox and I am starting fresh.

Starting April 25, the inbox will be open for requests with a cap of 10 before closing until I finish that batch of requests. I haven't been writing much for Hypmic as of late, so I really just want to warm up a bit and also pace myself.

I'm also not sure if Mod Custard is going to work on this so for now, it's just me.

Thank you so much if you stuck around and welcome if you followed during the hiatus - I appreciate you so much and I hope that I didn't disappoint you too much just dropping off the face of the earth ♥

- Rin

Thoughts on the 8th ep of Hypmic Rhyme Anima. Spoilers beware

Ep.1 | Ep.2 | Ep.3 | Ep.4 & 5 | Ep. 6 | Ep. 7

Love that every time its a MTC centric episode im so busy that i can’t watch it the day it airs

I like how the beginning of the episode kinda mirrors the events in MTC’s story in ARB

hey hypmic you wanna try making it Less obvious who the culprit is? like damn you’re just giving away secrets like its candy. First Ramuda, the Ruikawa and now these two assholes. Might wanna keep your cards close before you spoil the ending of the anime oh wait they already did that nvm :p

Samatoki please have some sense of self preservation and ask what its about before accepting something. but I guess it also speaks to how trusting he is of those he lets close to him which also explains a bit more as to why he hates Ichirou’s guts

Love that Jyuto is actually choking the information out of someone and Samatoki is actually gathering intelligence and creating boards out of it. Most people expect the opposite from their characters and it such a great dynamic

I find it hilarious that Rio uses older computers but that brings up the question of “How far into the future really is hypmic?” bc those computers look to be from early 2000′s which would be A N C I E N T and completely unusable for hacking come a time when WWIII happens

Iris on a bike has no rights looking as hot as she does. The vehicle CGI is really nice too and so is her character model on top of the bike. Loving how Iris completely owns the two cops

The MTC love here is jsut. through the roof i can die happy now that i’ve seen Samatoki aggressively caring for his teammates animated and voiced. like, please. just. help. I can.t/ MTC care so much for each other I would hug them all and tell them good work, you can finally go rest now uughghghgh MTC guys. MTC

But mannn Iris is so cool, approaching MTC without any fear

I find it hilarious that Saburo would pose as a game dev from dubai which yknow doesn’t make any sense if you think about it. but whatever it just makes me laugh at how easy it is to fake a lot about yourself because yeah! it is easy! 

The whole conversation about cops and good cops seems a bit off considering ACAB but considering Japan who has largely swept both BLM and ACAB under the rug it isn’t surprising. That isn’t to say that Japan doesn’t care, its just that these movements aren’t on the spotlight so topics like these don’t carry as much weight

lol yeah he should have expected to be stabbed from the front lol

SRKHFSKJD Rio please stop living in the water, i can’t believe he did that lol

Love the SamaJyuto subtext in the translation lol

Jyuto’s sequence is kinda cute in a way ahaha

The kurosawa-esque b&w screens are a nice touch to the song as well as the MC Name drops and hypnosis speaker drops. Idk about Rio’s 2DIE4 reference though since it doesn’t really rhyme nor does it add much to the rap itself

The song itself is pretty nice but it isn’t a bop like Fallin’ was. It has a different more gritty feel to it that i don’t hate but isn’t my style

Of course Iruma pulls this situation into his favor, its so typical of him.

Rio didn’t speak much here and took a general backseat to everything. I wonder if it was because during the time of recording this episode, Rio’s VA, Kamio Shinichiro, went down with The Virus (you know the one) so he couldn’t record much. Who knows but best boy. just let me hear best boy’s voice please

Ramuda’s phone vibrate actively annoys me oh my god it makes my skin crawl

If Ramuda’s sleeping on the couch then that really does confirm that Ramuda lives in his studio. Not surprising considering everything we know about Ramuda but at the same time, please get like a futon or smth sleeping on a couch will only hurt your back

Ramuda just busting in is fun

but im not sure how to feel about two divisions shoved into one. like this is basically telling us who is the important divisions, Ikebukuro and Shinjuku. Obviously BB are the protagonists of the series what with the staff coming out to even say that Ichirou is the hero, and if you know what happens then you know why Shinjuku is also highlighted which. also gives away the ending of the anime. again. I’m just glad that the team decided to stick with the irl results bc if they didn’t, they’d have a lot of angry fans

Back to my main point tho, this just. pisses me off. I love FP and MTC and to see them sidelined like this doesn’t feel fair. they deserve full eps to themselves bc if I’m being honest, these two teams have some of the best inter team dynamics out of the current cast. I understand that budget issues and episode constraints exist but this is just kinda frustrating that my main division has been tossed aside and the team that gets the most overall development gets thrown away too

Im not surprised that they cheated because gambling anime is about who can outcheat the other and the mind games played. thats the thrill of gambling series is the psychological factors in it

Ramuda emulating Gentaro’s speech is cute

The mindgames are not present at all and I expected that lol

thats.... midly gay gentaro lol do you always go around pressing shit into people’s mouths while leaning in close? thats pretty gay lol i love the homoerotic subtext present in this episode. First SamaJyuto and now GenDice

no speaker summon sequence? thats slightly disappointing but whatever. the anime is really doing FP dirty by cutting a lot of corners with their episodes

I never noticed that Ramuda and Gentaro hold their mics in their left hand while Dice holds it with his right. neat detail

I love how even in a battle FP still keeps their preppy attitude

Gentaro looks so awkward to the little sway and kick thing in the song lolol

This is probably one of the songs that I like the least. Jackpost is a very Dice song and not really fitting for either Ramuda and Genaro. I think i’d like it more if it was a dice solo or dice centric but the emphasis was pretty cleanly spread so that makes it pretty hard to enjoy

Oh hell yeah FP meshing as a team is just, so cute. Though that foreshadowing with Ramuda and his candy is just. wow

Yup they kept the og brackets so I think the anime’s going to stick with the IRL results. Which means that any tension they try and build won’t work for ppl who are already familiar with the series but I hope they don’t take that fact as an excuse to slack off
