why is everyone advocating for wade to die in the knuckles show? who else is going to convince shadow that humanity is worth saving so he helps sonic stop the ark

*frothing at the mouth* hey did you guys know that. that the stage play of mob psycho 100 is incredible. like it's not just a cheesy production it genuinely is just as carefully-thought-out as an adaptation of the manga as the show was. did you know it makes Teru even more human than he already was. did you know that the way they do Dimple is actually incredibly believable. I died laughing at the physical comedy bits about nine times. ueah. stageplay

i'm sympathetic to most of the affairs had by my modern japanese literary faves, except for kunikida, who i would say should have been put down like a dog except he was, by god, and i didn't like that one bit either.

I’m curious ! Kpop fans reblog this with your fave Japanese release and what Gen has the best Japanese songs 💙 Mine is Galaxy supernova by SNSD ! Gen 2 has the best Japanese songs in my opinion.

So for reasons (fanfic, the reasons are always fanfic), I was reading one of the books from the Japanese film course I took in college, A Hundred Years of Japanese Film by Donald Richie and I was really taken with this chapter on the earliest days of Japanese film-making. For context, Onoe Matsunosuke was a hugely popular actor between 1909 and when he died in 1926. He was famous for his athleticism, particularly kabuki-style sword-fighting. Makino Shozu was described by the book as "the first person to deserve the title of Director in the Western sense of the word."

Onoe has said that during this period of early filmmaking, neither actors nor directors used a script. Instead, Makino carried the plot in his head and called out the lines for the actors while they were on camera, just like the joruri chanter in bunraku. Onoe also recalled what hard work it was. He was required to make nine or more features a month, which meant that he was working on three separate features at any one time. Sometimes, he said, he was so exhausted that he mixed up his parts. And, indeed, overworked, he died on the set."

All of this is to say that I hate that Bleach Episode #298: Film! Festival! Shinigami Film Festival!, in which Ichigo stars in multiple films at once and almost dies, and Renji directs a film by yelling stage directions at people appears to be '''historically accurate,''' but that does, in fact, seem to be the case.

see I can’t accept charles’ comic background and socioeconomic status as canon for the show because if I did that would mean the whole group would be a bunch of rich kids and that’s a horrifying concept

Reading this reminds me of a tiktok I saw of someone analyzing Gojo & Megumi’s relationship:

This person on tiktok basically analyzed the way Megumi spoke to Gojo and put that into the context of how long they’ve known each other, Japanese culture, etc and came to the (unpopular) conclusion that: Megumi & Gojo don’t have as good/close of a relationship as the fanbase likes to make it out to be.

Megumi & Gojo are both fairly closed off individuals, it doesn’t come as a shock to *me* that when put together they aren’t exactly emotionally open w/ each other—but I get that in fandom spaces, it’s super popular to turn any adult chara in the vicinity of a minor chara into a dad/mom.

So rather than conclude strange things about “asian culture” (super broad btw) maybe just… reconsider how close Megumi & Yuuji truly are? Coming from someone Japanese… if they’re not calling you by your first name… you guys might not actually be all that close.

And this isn’t me saying they aren’t friends. Megumi definitely cares a great bit about Yuuji. I’m just saying, it doesn’t have to be so black and white.
