Hi,

JIN LING IS NOT HOW AN ABUSED CHILD BEHAVES. He sasses at JC and he KNOWS he's all bark no bite. The instances of JC hitting JL in canon are EXCEPTIONAL. If JC hit JL regularly, he would NOT have said "Not even my uncle hits me!" at WWX. That shit STICKS. You are all stupid

[ouiouimochi]

JIN KAMURAI I SWEAR-

spoilers for Episode 7 Chapter 45 !!!

so you're telling me this ice cold king mf offered quintuple the prize money for this awards ceremony for the best performing house just so ALL the ghouls would agree and helping us out a ton??? this same man who kabedonned us with a leg and intimidated us?? this same man who got a huge ship ready in a day when all we did was ask to borrow one?? the same man who was implied to have thrown a fit when we went MIA during the same mission ?!?!

good lord pls save me from this man— from early game he was there to help us as we needed it. on my knees for him and he doesn't need to use his stigma

WHY ARE ALL THE BLLK CHARACTER BACKSTORY SO SAD OMLL

[superbat-love]

Since DC is too cowardly to ever make superbat canon, I’ve decided to be delulu and pretend that Matthew x Jin from Under the Green Light is a superbat AU. I mean, come on, you’ve got the same vibes—a cynical man with a rough past + a loner who finds beauty in everything around him. Bonus points, they’re both orphans.

Mob Boss Jin: On the surface, he seems ruthless, but he’s actually fiercely loyal to those he cares about. He’s deeply conflicted about the path his life has taken, so he constantly seeks ways to dull the guilt and pain. A recovering junkie who sluts around with his subordinates (to the dismay of his higher-ups), Jin finally finds himself addickted to the lost soul that won’t stop following him around.

Art Student Matthew: Glasses? Check. Tall, well-built guy who hides his physique under baggy shirts? Double check. Constantly underestimated and pushed around by the people around him? Triple check. But beneath that innocent puppy demeanor lies someone who will go feral the second his lover is in danger.

The ‘Older Power Bottom x Younger Devoted Top’ dynamic is *chef’s kiss*

as much as I enjoy reading discourse on why this person and that person did that in mdzs, sometimes I feel like we think too much on them and it really is just… the characters are just… human… (referencing people in the main cast) They do things whatever they think is right and wrong, because of their own histories, upbringing and personalities. It’s inevitable that they clash with others, which escalates emotions and events. Their very superficial society doesn’t help at all. With everything coming together in a shitshow, this makes all their stories so damn painful and tragic.

This doesn’t mean that I excuse characters who inflict more harm on others. I acknowledge and don't want to take away whatever any character experienced. Being human doesn't excuse shitty behaviour. But still, I feel for them that they had to resort to/end up in their respective ways to make it through their loveless world. I want to focus on the greyness of humanity behind everything that happens in the story. One of the many thematic concerns that resonate with me is how much of us as humans are black and white (as such, we debate on the characters’ place on this spectrum, because of their actions). 不说黑白, Never black or white. Even if it nears the blackened end, it still never goes pitch black.

I say 人就是人，人就是这样 — People are people, people are simply like this. We all can be kind, we all curse out. We are all insecure about something. We laugh, we cry. We write love songs as much as easily as we write hateful messages. One day our loved ones and friends are around, and the next day, they aren’t anymore. There are times in our past that we can never return to and we can do nothing but move on with our own ways of coping, for what we think will be a better life for us. For better or worse.

Amidst all the viciousness and pettiness of the jianghu, mdzs touches on our tragedies and fallacies as people just trying to make sense of an unfeeling world, with unjust consequences and impartiality. Many of the mdzs characters try, and they fail. Isn’t this how our own reality is? How many of us have the privilege of a denouement to our own stories?

We can all have our personal opinions on the characters and their actions, but do not deny them their humanity or whatever shred of it is left.

[eddies-spaghetti]

i hate to say it but the only people in the league of villains who wear deodorant are Toga and Mr. Compress.

[tenkos-heart]

many people have said this better than me but like.

getting rid all of the people who criticized your society and just have said society to go back how it was before minus ochako trying to pave way for mental health is not a good message to send!!! or the fact that a lot of you care more about wither or not your ship is canon then the fascist, bootlicking ending says a lot about you, too!!! -proship/compship dni-

[riririnnnn]

More random things in Blue Lock I find endearing:

-> Brothers

LOOK AT THE HAND PLACEMENT OF SAE. JUST LOOK AT IT. LOOK. AT. IT. OHMYGOD I'M GONNA CRY.

Oh god.

It's tough to explain, but to see him supporting Rin's arm instead of the trophy makes me want to punch a wall. It feels like, "Yes, we won this together, Rin." OHMYGOD! AAAAAAAA!!!

-> Hushed wisher

I really don't think we have ever seen Noa coaching any player other than Isagi, so him silently rooting for Kaiser caught me off guard real hard. Of course, it doesn't seem like much of a big deal, but to see that Noa hadn't completely taken his eyes off of Kaiser and that he hadn't completely pulled away his trust from Kaiser hits a certain type of emotion in my heart.

Considering that Kaiser wants to win over Noa too—a fact Noa, probably, knows—makes everything feel a bit.. bittersweet.

-> CHEERS!!

The above panel happened after Shidou scored a goal against Barcha and honestly—

CUTE!!!

I mean, BM was next in line to face PxG—it's probably the reason why they were watching the match live—and they were going to face Shidou which makes them rivals, and yet, when he does something cool, they all go, "WOOHOO! THAT'S COOL!!" instead of worrying or being jealous.

It's called sportsmanship, I guess?

It's sweet.

-> BM's Dad

There's another translation, but I find the above one way better because it's so... soft.

I mean, Noa has always been shown as this cold, emotionless person who inhales and exhales logic, so it was sweet when he tried to reassure Kiyora—when he showed some kind of compassion. It was like, "Hey, Kiddo! It's okay, don't worry, you'll play the next time! Cheer up!"

It also makes it sound like even if Kiyora were not to have the required stats for the next match, then Noa was prepared to against his own ideals and let Kiyora play regardless.

Sweet!

-> Protective

When Nagi got pissed off because Barou's violent behaviour nearly hurt Reo. Like, just look at that stance, he was ready to beat the crap out of Barou if Reo wouldn't have stopped him.

No matter what label you give Nagi and Reo—lovers or friends—you can't deny that they are probably the best thing that happened to eachother.

I really want what they have.

-> "It's their love language"

They barely knew eachother and yet when these two started to brawl, they all intervened immediately—Nanase and Isagi are literally hanging onto them with their dear life. It's tough to explain, but I found the gesture really sweet, like, they didn't know them! They could bash open their skulls—it wouldn't affect them at all and yet, they are trying to stop them!

Adorbs!!

Also, Chigiri was on the other side of the field, I guess. He came running!!! So sweet!

-> First friend

The way Bachira blindly believed in Isagi. Like, he had full trust that Isagi will come and play with him. He never doubted him at all! The healthiest duo of Blue Lock!

Also, look at his duck lips. Cutie.

-> "Welcome to the academy!"

Anybody who has shifted to a completely new place full of completely new people knows how good and relieving it feels when others make an effort to help you feel welcomed.

No idea if those three extra characters got selected in the tryouts or not, but they were nice. If Kaiser would've met them earlier, then they all would've surely been good buddies.

-> Beloved Ace

The way everyone instantly got mad at Shidou when he hurt Sendou—sweet! Also, the fact that they all refused to play if Sendou didn't play makes me giggle.

I adore bonds like these so much.

[ima-yehet-you-in-the-face]

Part 2 of I'm reading mdzs. I flip flop between loving Jiang Cheng and hating him. Like on one hand I feel horrible for him and everything he has gone through, but on the other I can't stand his mentality. I have moments where I stop and think god this poor kid has gone through so much and cry because he deserves so much bettter. Even before everything went down the way his parents made he feel was absolutely awful, and it just gets worse and worse, and i want nothing more then to protect him. Then I remember all the things he does and how he acts. His hatred towards wei wuxian fills me with rage. No one can convince me he doesn't hate him. He loves him there's no doubt about that but he still hates him in my opinion. Wei wuxian does not deserve his hatred. The wen remnants do not deserve his hatred. I can understand why he feels the way he feels I really can but that doesn't justify slaughtering innocent people. Who cares what happens to everyone else as long as it doesnt effect me is basically his personality. Hismost redeeming qualities are his love for his sister and nephew.

okay genuinely i hate the 'have eri or some other plot thing just de-age the league' solution to the lov as a plot point. like. did we even read the same manga. the whole POINT of the league is people forgetting or erasing them and the ways theyve suffered because of the hero system. literally erasing their entire lives all their suffering and all their joy to make them into cute innocent little kids is the exact OPPOSITE of what the ending of that arc should entail. and what about all the other people whove suffered because of the system? big sis magnes friend, all the ppl w mutant type quirks who rallied behind spinner, all the members of the MLA, and all the others we dont see, does eri just have to rewind all of them?? we don't need to reform the system we just need to use this literal child to reset everyone who we've made suffer back into small children so they dont stir up trouble for us anymore! sounds like a great plan! fucking hell

The infamous Drake hotline bling Meme

In all seriousness, I am getting so bored of the pretty, feminine boys getting knocked up (with a few exceptions like Judeau from Berserk or Kenshin Himura from Ruronshi Kenshin for example)

The worst offender is when the uke is underaged and the seme is an adult, and the uke gets knocked up 🤮)

Also if the uke looks and acts too much like a female, it almost kinda ruins the purpose of boy love, and it looks more like a standard hetro romance novel than a yaoi one, just my opinion. We all have different tastes.

I do not mind senstive, innocent boys as a whole, but it's almost as if they have one role in the yaoi community "Be the submissive, cute, passive" wife that takes crap from their abusive husbands. That is where I draw a line, and that just feels wrong to me.

I do not mind the submissive, feminine mother trope, but I also really love the strong, sexy, no-nonsense mother trope the most.

Mothers are stronger than you think, (Hell, they gave birth, and giving birth is 10 times worse than getting kicked in the balls) and I think that needs to be represented more in the yaoi/mpreg community.

Like if a male character you like gets pregnant, at least mix it up a bit.

I prefer a male character getting pregnant that doesn't take any nonsense from their hubbies (in fact the hubbies are more respectful, loving, romantic, and submissive than their badass mpreg uke ^^) and said badass male character getting pregnant, starts off hating the idea of being pregnant.... then slowly but surely (slow burn process) warms up to the idea of having a baby of their own, and are willing (either out of obligation or out of love) to give birth to their children, and have a soft side to them.

Plus it wouldn't hurt to see a sexy bara character, or the sexy bad boy character to have the role of a sexy mama.

[someprettyname]

YO YO YO. NOW. THESE SHIDOU CRUMBS AREN'T ENOUGH FOR ME OKAY? I NEED MORE DETAILS ON HOW HIS TAG GAME WENT.

I mean, I think we all can accept that he would've been on team V, was he with Rin on team V? Damn. That'd be SO interesting.

I was also wondering what made him take so long to clear second selection, 'coz his rank by the time he came out was 111? That's pretty....late, for someone at his level.

[shrimpsuru]

Bucchigiri doodles! I really like this show, I think everyone is super charming and fun! And all the designs are all so good ⸜(*ˊᗜˋ*)⸝

I'm gonna go on a quick rant about Arajin, because I have no one to talk about this with, so let me shout into the void:

Okay- So as I watching the show, I really liked everyone. I thought Arajin and his pathetic-ness and wet cat nature was charming, He's a loser and I love him for that! Even when he was being a bit of an asshole I was still quite fond of him, He's flawed and that's what made him interesting. He's a bit more complex than people give him credit for. Since my opinion of Ara was fairly positive, I thought most people would agree- (I didn't think he was all that bad and most people would also find him charming) I was so surprised when I found out how many people absolutely hate this guys guts, it was so different from what I excepted lmao. I understand being annoyed with Ara and I can see how some might not like him too much, but they were on my boy's ass 💀

First of all, Ara doesn't want OR like to fight, he's just a regular teen boy, he's nothing like this big buff dudes who are constantly look for someone strong to punch. If it weren't for Senya, Ara would've been done for by now. All Ara want's is to get a girlfriend, and that's normal for a boy his age!! Everyone else in the show are the freaks, my guy just wants love!! The only reason he fights is because his delusional ass is in love with a girl who knows she can play him like a fiddle, or when he's backed into a corner an has no other choice. Arajin wanted a slice of life high school romance and was instead thrown into the middle of a gang war with a bunch of dudes who are hellbent on fighting lmao

He's just a silly little guy!! He's not built for all this violence!!

Don't get me wrong the way Ara treats Matakara is frustrating at times, and I wish they would just talk (And I'm gonna be honest the fact Matakara still looks at Ara positivelyis really surprising lmao (I'd hold one hell of a grudge but I'm just petty)) but at the same time, I don't really blame Ara. He feels guilty, and in reality he probably hates himself (For multiple different reasons). He left Matakara behind and it eats at him, just the thought of the memory triggered a nervous stomach ache. Matakara is a walking reminder of what Ara doesn't like about himself, of course he's going to avoid him like the plague. Doesn't mean its good, or even healthy but that's just how people are. Even so Ara is only ever outwardly hostile towards Matakara when the past is brought up, every other time he can have a somewhat normal interaction (even if its reluctant). And with the newest episodes, Ara is now being a bit softer with him. Progress! Its small, but still progress!

Also small complaint, there are SO many worse mcs that do far more unbearable things, Arajin is practically a saint in comparison lol ( Doesn't mean anyone not liking him is invalid or anything, again I can totally understand why some don't like him!! Just because he's better than most doesn't mean he still cant be bad for people!! ���(＃××))

Rant over- Am I thinking to far into it? perhaps. but who cares! It's a silly show at the end of the day and I just like to yapp passionately into the void
