#I think it fits aoex's style

[frobby]

reol is doing the opening for blue exorcist season 4 instead of uverworld and i know yall are broken up about it but does it make you feel better if you know reol did the song where kagamine len sings about how big his dick is and nothing else?

[askingexorcists]

Yo......love your blog, also love pokemon, so may I request some pokemon head cannons for all the aoex characters (or at least all the main ones), head cannons for them as a trainer, they're favourite pokemon, other pokemon related head cannons you can think of!

Rin:

Party:

Pelipper

Aipom

Ampharos

Chespin

Pidgeotto

Litten

As a trainer:

He wants to become the worlds greatest Pokemon trainer

He loves his Pokemon more then anything

Put’s them first no matter what

He’s the sort of trainer that talks big but can’t win battles for shit

He gets advice from his companions and rethinks his battle approach for his Pokemon

He starts winning

He’s actually an amazing trainer

He’s getting better every day

General:

He found a Wingull with a broken wing when he was a child, and took it to the Pokemon centre

Once it was healed, he tried to release it

But it refused to leave his side 

Wingull was his first Pokemon and they’re still the best of friends

Rin was overjoyed when it evolved into Pelipper

He received Chespin from Professor Sycamore 

He found Litten abandoned and hungry under a bridge in Alola

Befriended it and took it in

The rest he caught

Yukio:

Party:

Bunnelby

Farfetche’d

Nidoqueen

Sandslash

Umbreon

Venonat

As a trainer:

He’s the Gym leader in Exorcist city

He requires 2 gym badges before your allowed to battle him

He likes to guide his opponents and help them in their journey to becoming a good Pokemon trainer

He also does Pokemon breeding on the side

He also researches Pokemon as well

He likes to analyse his Pokemon’s strengths and weaknesses and utilise them during battle

He wants to know everything about them

Because he dreams of becoming a Pokemon professor 

He’s currently studying under a Professor as his assistant to learn all he can about Pokemon

General:

When his twin brother started his Pokemon journey he challenged Yukio to a gym battle

He made Yukio forget the 2 badge rule just for him

They argued about it a lot but Yukio got sick of Rin’s whining so gave in and accepted the battle

It didn’t matter anyway 

Because Rin lost miserably 

He swears he’ll come back stronger and win a rematch

Yukio can’t wait for that day

When he was a child, he was bullied a lot at school

When Rin wasn’t there to protect him he’d run of and hide

He was crying in the woods and an Eevee found him

It followed him around after that and protected him

It later evolved into Umbreon

Shiemi:

Party:

Bounsweet

Comfey

Bellossom

Cherrim

Cottonee

Shaymin

As a trainer:

She’s a gym leader in Meadowlark city

She specialises in grass type Pokemon

She took over the gym from her grandmother when she died

She isn’t the best gym leader because she’s really shy

She also doesn’t like seeing Pokemon get hurt

She often neglects her responsibility as a gym leader so she can spend time in her garden with her Pokemon

She treats her Pokemon kindly and enjoys looking after them

She feeds them Pokebeans and berries that she grows in her garden

General:

Rin came to battle her and she was nowhere to be found 

So he looked for her and discovered a beautiful blonde girl in a breathtaking garden 

He was shocked when he found out she was the gym leader

Shiemi apologised for making him come all this way for nothing 

Rin yells at her and tells her to take her post seriously

She’s not only neglecting the trainers who want a Leaf badge but also her Pokemon who would love to battle alongside her

So he vows to help her

Rin helps Shiemi with her shyness

Shiemi asks if she can travel along with Rin whilst she’s learning how to be a real person

Her mom looks after her gym for her whilst she’s away

Once she’s experienced the world a bit she can’t wait to continue her grandmothers legacy and be the best gym leader she can be

Her Pokemon were all her grandmothers, apart from Cherrim who she caught herself

She grew up with her grandmothers Pokemon so they all knew her and loved her

He gets very serious in battle

His father is the Island Kahuna on MeleTemple island

He will one day inherit his fathers place and intends to be ready

General:

His favourite type of Pokemon is electric 

Because it matches(/matched) his hair

He meets Rin and Shiemi when they come to the Alolan region 

He shows them around since they’re new

Takes it back when he sees how much courage and love he has for Pokemon and battling

Togedemaru

He’s a new trainer in the Alolan region

He loves all of his Pokemon 

He just wants them to try their best in battle

He doesn’t like seeing Pokemon get hurt

So he carries a shit ton of revives and potions

He loves seeing the different Pokemon moves though and levelling up his Pokemon so thats why he became a trainer

And it makes his Pokemon happy as well

General:

He has a love for cat type Pokemon

When he went to Professor Kukui for his starter Pokemon, he originally wanted Litten but they were all gone

So he chose Popplio and now he wouldn’t trade it for anything

He loves petting his Pokemon and playing with them

And feeding them Pokebeans

He is fascinated by Alolan forms

He is to scared to ride Pokemon and is really sad about it, because he would love to ride a Mudsdale or a Lapras

Renzou:

Party:

Crabrawler

Lycanroc (midday form)

Froakie

Fletchling

Inkay

Magenmite

As a trainer:

He has three elder brothers who are all gym leaders

He doesn’t want to follow in their footsteps

Too much pressure

He just thinks Pokemon and adventures are cool so he’s on a Pokemon journey to have fun

He’s laid back and enjoys battle

Doesn’t care all too much if he looses 

Only cares if theres a hot girl about to see his defeat

In general:

He caught his little sister a Pichu for her birthday

He low-key things Lycanroc’s midnight form is cooler

Out of all his Pokemon he is closest with Froakie

Despite how he acts, he is close with all his Pokemon

He loves them a lot 

He’s forgetful sometimes and messes up a lot 

He’s terrified of bug type Pokemon and if anyone draws one out in battle he’ll either faint or yell out random moves in fear, this confuses his Pokemon and they end up hurting themselves in the confusion, so they loose the battle

He met and befriended Rin and Shiemi and the three of them are travelling together on a Pokemon adventure

Braixen

Cinccino

Clefairy

Furfrou (heart trim)

She has a soft spot for her cute Pokemon and loves them a lot 

In general:

She really wants a Sylveon

Her little sister loves looking after her Pokemon with her

He’s the current Pokemon champion

He has a lot of Pokemon, probably more then anyone else ever

He didn’t catch them all, he bought some from dodgey people online

He wants to collect at least one of each Pokemon

In general:

He has so many Pokemon that he bought a whole chunk of his city just for them all to fit together

His Pokemon have the best everything 

They are always groomed and presented well

He is often featured in Pokemon magazines around the world and therefor is quite wealthy

He has one of each style of variety Pokemon

Lewin:

Party:

Garbodor

Muk

Stunky

Gloom

Acres

Mewtwo

As a trainer:

He is a popular professor who is respected for his knowledge and skill on Pokemon and battling 

He’s got many Pokemon, although not as many as mephisto

He’s won multiple awards for his discoveries

He has one of the largest Pokemon labs in the world

General:

Although he caught the majority of his Pokemon, Trubbish (now Garbodor) and Grimer (now Muk) found him and followed him around

It’s likely they were confused because they thought he was one of them

He smells so bad they still aren’t sure if he is or isn’t a Pokemon

He has a wide collection of legendary and mythical Pokemon 

Despite being highly respected person in the Poke-world, he is still extremely lazy and doesn’t seem to care about his appearance 

Some of his Pokemon like to try clean him by licking his face

This was a lot of fun for me to do! So thank you for the request! I only did some of the aoex characters but if anyone would like to request more like Shura, shiro, Nemu, Amaimon, Lucifer, Illuminati members etc…. just send the request and I’d be happy to do it!

[courage-a-word-of-justice]

ACCA 2 | Nanbaka 16 | SGRS 16 | Marginal #4 2 | Classicaloid 15 | Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga 2 - 3 | D Gray Man Hallow 1 | ReLIFE 2 - 6

The idea for D Gray Man Hallow from now on: Once all 2016 shows are done (rewatches or not), expect the 2016 ranking.

(ACCA 2)

What in Dante’s Inferno? I’m properly listening to the OP as it was intended in the anime…and it doesn’t quite look like what I expected.

I don’t like tomatoes, so no bread for me.

This is a cute…albeit unconventional way to introduce the series’ core concepts. Also, acorn berets.

Kabocha = pumpkin, while murasaki = purple. That’s made from purple lettuce, so I don’t blame ‘em for calling it that.

Mushroomhead = Rail.

I thought ACCA paid really high if he got cigarettes for free.

Oh no, is Nino going to go against Jean?

Bihinshitsu = equipment room.

2m 22 cm is over 6 foot…wow.

Walnut-topped cake filled with nuts.

The systems managers seem really incompetent…I suspect something’s up.

The guys all deilberately seem to have the same face.

A-hah. As I thought. (Dang you, title spoiler.)

If this ED were to evolve, it would be even better than Yuri on Ice’s OP. (That’s saying something.) Unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to be happening…

Doesn’t seem like there’ll be any title spoilers next time either.

(Nanbaka 16)

I’m less likely to skip Rin! Rin! Hi! Hi! than some of the other Ops when I’m watching. That does make it slightly unwieldy as a rewatching show, though.

“Wow, he’s trash.” – Dat me.

Samon has a brother?

In a world full of filial piety, the worst one can do is to insult someone else’s family.

I’m not very good with “kept secret” stories, which is why I’m trying to do “Next to Me” well enough…at least to my standards, anyway. My standards are very high, you know.

They must’ve done something to the snacks…

(Showa Genroku: Sukeroku Futatabi-hen 3)

The fireworks are so lifelike in this ep!

Daiku Shirabe…I found out about the story from an ANN article, so I should’ve seen its appearance coming…“Tamaya” is something you yell during fireworks displays. Apparently it was the name of a fireworks company somewhere along the line.

The flattening refers to how Yota had to bow for forgiveness, but I think I kinda explained that already.

“Shinuchissei”…Yota seems to slur the end of his sentences.

I actually went “WHAT?!” at Yota not being fazed by the big daddy boss.

Note for later: The baby (I heard his name was Shinnosuke) was born November 23rd.

The jazz soundtrack really sells this show.

...so this is the rant from Daiku Shirabe. It’s fast (compared to even the usual), but it has lots of heart. Plus the showcasing of the tattoo really did its significance justice.

I think the bridge is called Matsubashi (Pine Bridge).

Yota could’ve fabricated the shaking of his hands.…wow. Yota has such yaoi hands. Just what you’d expect from a former BL artist.

I thought Yakumo was more of a cat person. Whose dog is Hanako?

Aw. I felt sorry for Matsuda, even if I have a suspicion he feigned those tears. Well, regardless, now I know Matsuda has grandkids anyway…so win win.

I knew he was either summoning the master Sukeroku II pissed off or Sukeroku himself.

“Tou-chan” was an unexpected nickname I didn’t think Konatsu would use.

Update: I thought about it, and even Shinnosuke’s name takes after the legacy. Remember? Sukeroku used to be called Shin! 

(Marginal #4 2)

One of the things that makes this show stand out is the space-styled episode titles.

Ooh. Pretty cherry blossoms.

Pan shots. Of course.

I know this isn’t the sort of show that gets too much coverage, and I even think it looks a bit ugly at times (not to mention a bit weird) but when you’re not caught up on most of the other big idol shows, this is the best you can do.

I think game boy (orange twin…er, aka R)’s trying too hard with his terms.

Now that Atom is talking about heart, it really does look like he’s a Toshiki Masuda character through and through, although he doesn’t look very angry when he sounds angry. I’ll chalk that up to the art department.

“Don’t think, feel” seems to be attributed to lots of places, so I don’t know the original source. However, since game boy (um, aka R) cites a movie star, it’s apparently Bruce Lee (if my Google-fu serves me right).

L makes stuff sound deeeeep.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?! Rui wasn’t surprised by the juice.

Atom is such a Ryuu sometimes...

…okay, enough with the underwear jokes…The twin jokes are a bit weird. Plus the ships can be smelt from a mile away…but that’s not enough to save a show.

“Ore-sama”? I only just realised Atom uses such a term.

Enough about the lucky underwear! *flips table*

Oh, I saw Ayanokouji in the background at one point.

I’m with Rui most times, including the need for deduction.

I’m still questioning the sanity of someone who wrote an entire episode plot about lucky underwear.

Alright, since I feel brain dead after that, I’m going to drop it, meaning ACCA is the show that forges ahead. Well, I’m lucky I was hoping to watch FLCL to fill in the gap once I’m done with my 3 remaining rewatches at this point in time (ReLIFE, D Gray Man, Morose Mononokean). The latter two will have, from ep 7, fresh impressions, so hopefully you can look forward to them.  

(Classicaloid 15)

Selfies: a worldwide phenomenon…I never got into that stuff, but if I were to analyse ‘em, I’d say they tap into the human need to be self centred.

There’s something sad about seeing someone rejected, eve if that someone is a piece of trash like Sousuke…

The game the Classicaloids are playing appears to be a game of Life.

Unfortunately, Kanae’s right…again. Sad life for you, Sousuke.

Motz literally became a flippin’ Akoya, right down to wearing a dress. Plus, the Amazon brigade came back.

Aw, I really felt for the glasses guy, even if briefly.

“Basics of Programming”? Don’t need that for Garage Band, Sousuke.

Hanted house and cosplay café...

…eh? Tchaiko still calls herself a former member of Cla:Kla?

Oh. I never realised until now, but Hamamatsu + festival (matsuri) = Hamamatsuri.

With that song (Sousuke’s song), it’s a sad blooper reel.

(Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga ep 2)

I got a wallpaper of Shima trying not to laugh (it was from the official Blue Exorcist anime page, but only for a period around Shima’s b’day). So this ep is where it comes from.

“Bon” means “young master” anyway, so it doesn’t matter.

“…a herbal tea antidote…”

Kyoto is meant to be the imperial capital…at least around the 1700s, it was the imperial capital.

Mamushi means “pit viper”. She’s not one to mess with.

He’s got some reflexes, that Ryuji.

Uwabami is also a type of snake…I forgot which one though.

Wait, Uwabami’s the man?! Uwabami was a woman in Oumagadoki Zoo…

Seriously, are they all getting drunk on juice…? Oh, okay. So that’s what happened.

(ep 3)

Rin’s shirt says “Sankyu” in goroawase and English, LOL.

Even if you love weeds, please don’t smoke ‘em, kids.

I thought Rin was going to pull a Shaft head tilt out of nowhere when he looked back at Konekomaru.

Update: For efficiency, the tag for this one is “Chesarka watches AoEx”. However, I don’t normally refer to it as such. I’d probably refer to it as “Ao Eku” if I wee speaking (due to the season 1 DVD extras), but “Blue Exorcist” is the shortest mode of the name I’d use in typing format.

(D Gray Man Hallow ep 1)

I am familiar with this source material, so do be aware of that. However, I didn’t finish the anime the first time around, so do be aware of that too.

Sometimes the art style for this anime can be a little off. The noses can be a little too pointy and too close to the eyes, so on and so forth.Allen doesn’t even look like he’s blushing with this art style too…that’s a bit of a disappointment.

Even the golems have it in for each other…LOL.

Johnny has apparently been stealing the spotlight for quite some time, but I haven’t noticed it all that much. Probably because I read volumes 21 – 24 in one go…

I think.Cross Marian looks more like Grelle (Black Butler) than ever in colour.

Why does Lenalee have such a short skirt?

When even the masked guy has a sweatdrop, you know there’s trouble.

(ReLIFE ep 2)

Unfortunately for Kariu, I understand there is no “next time”…

I’ve found out even at 18, people don’t judge two people of different gender sitting together eating lunch…of course, cultural standards notwithstanding.

Stud earrings are fine if you play sports, I think.

According to Google-sensei, it’s only about $11, my country’s money. It’s not that much if you work…but knowing Japanese standards (which say you should focus on getting into uni before getting a job), it does seem a bit much for someone who doesn’t work and doesn’t get any allowance. So in a weird way, it does make sense to me.

...but you took Kariu’s hand when she offered you the rubber, Arata?

Hey, that joke was in Erased too.

Kazu-kun = Karamatsu…kinda. LOL.

I always seemed to understand Hishiron, and yet also understand Arata to some extent too. Maybe I’m the perfect in-between for these two. Probably because I tend to break off friendships as soon as the year ends, and yet prior friendships are a core part to my social strategy.

Unfortuately, the downside to “minimalistic” is that it’s obvious when it goes off model.

LINE sticker…LOL. LINE’s very popular in Japan.

(ep 3)

I’ve wondered whether Yayoi Sou is a lady or not. Considering the circumstances, it probably is that Sensei is a female.

Hideyo is the dude on the 1000 note, obviously.

Ah…fitness tests. The bane of youth. No one says “stupid loud” though.

Oh. Tamarai’s there around the time of Asaji’s throw.

Lookit that rabbit on Usa-sensei’s shirt. No one says “crazy athletic” either…you outdated subbers.

Akira (Inukai) is kinda like Yurio, come to think of it, eh?

Didn’t you just say it yourself (about you being old) though, Arata?

Yoake literally had a blank face there, LOL.

There appears to be a Sato GP on the way to Aoba. Huh.

Ah…a show’s a real classic if it makes you laugh every time…

(ep 4)

Where’s the guy who does sad interpretations of OPs and EDs? (This guy.)

I know your feels, Kariu. (see the Tumblr debacle for an instance of this)

There appears to be something about whales near the fishtank.

The cityscapes in this are so nice.

There’s a map of Japan on one wall of Kaizaki’s place.

Go forth, young Kariu! Pick up your fallen balls! (teehee)

CGI balls, LOL.

It’s creepy (but also dramatic) when the lights of the eyes are the last to move.

(ep 5)

Sumire! Her name means “violet” (the flower).

There are some nuances lost in translation, like yappari and the levels of formality…but those are typically lost.

This “lecture” is probably the highest point you can get in the show (so far). It’s times like this you can really see an author’s strengths in storytelling.

The piano really sells the Hishiro/Kaizaki meeting.

What a strange angle that “lean to the left” shot is.

I’ve found out swear words have a lot of leeway when it comes to levels of “oh no”. These swar words include yabai and temee. Due to the context of Wan! and the fact it was Chuuya who kept using them, I went with the nastier variants [in my scanlating days] but sometimes a non-swearing variant is enough. However, kirai (to dislike) is pretty nasty if you use it in Japanese.

Kaizaki’s delivery of these lines really sells their comedic effect. The electronic keyboard makes it sound like night, but also makes it sound 1) like night and 2) creepy, for some reason.

Freeter is almost as bad as NEET, Kaizaki.

There appears to be a 100 man (10 thousand) coin bank behind Yoake, which makes that...1000000 yen. (chorus in back: One million yen?!)

(ep 6)

Apparently someone tried to type the same Japanese words into Google and didn’t get the same results, LOL.

Hishiron uses a Mac, LOL.

“Thanks for having us” probably isn’t the right words for it. Ojamashimasu means “sorry for intruding”, but it sounds heavily formal when translated, so I can see why the subbers did what they did though.

*laughs* MDs (minidiscs)? I know what they are, even though they’re meant to be completely dead by now. Apparently they’re a product of the 90s that never caught on..although I admit I’ve never used an MD in my life, let alone held one. It does kinda look like a floppy disc, though. (chorus in back: You poke through old stuff too much, don’t you?)

Those fadeout cups are so cool! I want one.

Ah, maths. The sad thing about my life is that up until a certain point I was good at maths. Then the hard stuff came up and I started to fail.

I thought it was Third Street Oga was talking about, but it’s 3rd chome, sort of like a suburb.

Knowing An, she may have deliberately put Oga out of the way for her own purposes…if you know what I mean.

CGI car just ruined the suspenseful mood, dangit.

Sometimes I just turn off my volume and turn on some music on Spotify. That way, you can make your own soundtrack.

Why did Arata have such a dumb face in the thought bubble?

Wow, she’s a real fujoshi, that one [An].

“Dude”? I cringe so much at her use of it, despite the fact I use it myself. 

You liar, Onoya. Knowing who subject 1 was means that I know they couldn’t have even thought about that part…
