#Jshk rant

[royakahoshiart]

I saw an artist make a post "new chapter in a nutshell" where Aoi looked disgusted like. Hello do we read the same manga she was so jealous of Nene, was mad at him for leaving, blushed at his confession and her face when teru told her she wasn't the Aoi he Ioved kmggg

AKANE WASN'T LIKE THAT WHEN HE WAS YOUNGER?? WHY WOULD HE BE LIKE THAT NOW!! IT WAS FUNNY AT FIRST BUT NOW ITS ENOUGH.

Not gonna lie all those people who say aoiaoi isn't canon make me laugh because:

.1 AOI confirmed her feelings for him,

.2 She looked DISTRAUGHT when Akane and Lemon got together,

.3 She does not wanna date Teru but Akane in canon.

The hate aoiaoi is so ridiculous, they even block people for it.

So many people followed me on twitter but blocked me when they realised I shipped aoiaoi??? Just let me like what I want it's not a proship.

Urgghh I feel like that thread about aoiaoi didn't get enough attention. I should post it here too.

Almost nobody of the 900+ people who liked it actually understand what they read. It's so annoying people on tbhktiktok and tbhtwt are insufferable.

Aougn hear me out... Akane respecting boundaries In this timeline he didn't confess to her anymore because she told him not to since she was engaged, that's why she looked so surprised when Akane confessed to her.

Meanwhile in the og timeline it's CANON that she told him to keep confessing.

She probably did that so one day he would get tired and give up on her since she think he could never love her true self.

Also how dare someone say it was exaggerated of Aoi to go to the far shore just cause she felt different SHE WAS FUCKING DRUGGED SHE WAS DRUGGED DID YOU NOT READ THE FUCKING MANGA. Aoi was conscious she was just drugged to make her remaining reasons to stay in the near shore get cut off.

Like getting your reasons to live stolen away.

I'm legit thinking that Aoi might be like Mafuyu from pjsk to be frank, both have a mask and wanted to disappear, it's like they can't say a character wants to die. I'm not saying Aoi IS I'm saying she could be, after all there are some signs, not as clear as kou's but still signs.

I kinda wish more Teru fans agreed with his actual views on supernaturals- I feel like literally the only Teru fan in existence rn that actually agrees that almost all supernaturals are evil and not even other Teru fans seem to think this way- I'm starting to feel left out of the group that I thought were my people...I miss old Teru fans sometimes...I want someone to talk to about this and we're both just like "omg ya he was so right and ___ proves it!!!" And just stuff like that...sighhhh even tho the tbhk fan base seems a little more open to these ideas I still some how feel left out....

[louewhi]

adding to my previous post... i Think more people need to pay attention to Hanako being shorter than Yashiro y'know!?!? it always makes me a little upset (not in a serious way! a silly way) when people draw Hanako taller, and why??

because Hanako being shorter (and younger!) than Yashiro makes their relationship cuter . how? because Hanako is NOT Yashiro's type! Yashiro likes taller and older than her guys, and Hanako is not any of those things! but she still falls in Love w him!!! (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

Yashiro mentions many times how Hanako is not her type, how she doesn't like that he's shorter than her! but as you know, she ends up liking him anyways

so yea.. hanako being shorter in fanart is very important to me ok... I don't play abt hananene heights... /j

well, that's it!!! thanks for coming to my ted talk . i hope This post makes u all realize this cute little fact that I've never seen ppl pay attention to, buh bye!!!

[lavatory-sealed-hanako-kun]

Genderbent designs! Teru has two because Teru is special.

And a bonus comic cause yeah Mitsuba really didn't change much. He has the androgynous rizz regardless of what gender he is.

[ocelotlesbian]

his hungry ass could never be a surgeon.

anyway i'm pretty happy with how this turned out, especially since i basically never draw side profiles and it somehow looks good :3

[hanakou-often]

I got a headcanon that after the young exorcist arc Hanako began to see Kou as super cool and more attractive than he gave him credit because despite Nene explicitly saying Kou is not her type, Hanako abruptly gets WAY MORE wary if they are, like he is scared she'll notice he is 'objectively' boyfriend material and fall in love (too).

Honestly Hanako finding Kou more attractive immediately after the young exorcist arc is pretty plausible. I mean. The inherent romantism of taking a bullet of lightning for your enemy, the kindness expressed in the willingness to vouch for someone you once deemed evil, the bravery in it all…yeah I’d be a wary too if Kou was willing to do all of that for Hanako then you can only imagine what he'd do for Nene. This gave me an idea that Hanako at some point probably couldn't tell who he was more jealous of. Was it Kou for supposedly being the better potential boyfriend material that Nene deserves? Or was it Nene for being able to connect to Kou in a way that Hanako couldn't? They're both humans, plus he was a boy and she was a girl, could I make it anymore obvious? There's plenty room for them to develop feelings and if Nene chose to pursue Kou, Hanako couldn't say he didn't see it coming. It's only natural that someone as strong, sweet and relentlessly giving as Kou would be bound to attract someone as equally sweet as Nene.

Still, there's something he can't shake off about the jealousy. It's something more complicated than Kou possibly stealing Nene away from him. It's something much more indigestible that sits underneath the fluttery feelings he gets when Kou laughs or smiles. It's something that he won't ever allow himself to explore because of his internalized homophobia. It's envy. Envy of Nene who has the right to be boy crazy all she wants because it's what's expected of a teenage girl. It's envy of her being able to explore her options, namely Kou, in a way that Hanako cannot since he's 1. Not a girl, and 2. A ghost. It's an agonizing realization to dissect so Hanako will stay ignorant to it, hoping that if he pretends hard enough it'll just go away on its own.

i now hereby declare that 'just take my wallet' by jack stauber's micropop is THE mitsukou theme song

and i will no longer be pretending like other, more "complete" songs fit them better, because holy shit the entire premise of their relationship is that it just . will never reach a proper conclusion or have any sense of finality, doomed to be turbulent forever

this especially applies to kou and sousuke (aka the "original" mitsuba) and how sousuke just suddenly dies with no way to combat it. it just happens. tsukasa. just. happens.

and i think the saddest part is that when sousuke is introduced, it's so obvious he's going to die (or whatever ghosts do a second time). but what caught me off guard, at least, was the fact that kou didn't get to process any of it properly. he didn't get to say goodbye. he didn't get to accept their fate like sousuke sort of got to do.

[prinzessinscloset]

Thinking about how when Nene was preparing to go to the far shore she had no intention to come back. She played with her hamster for what she thought would be the last time and she kissed her parents goodbye, she packed her bag with all sorts of things so that she can have something fun to do with Hanako in death. Nene spent most of the series running away from her death, she wants to live a long and fulfilling life but she ultimately decided to die on her own terms, it would be less scary that way and it would be best for aoi's sake plus she didn't mind living a quiet (after)life with Hanako, she loved him after all and she had no hesitation to say yes when he asked if she'll stay with him forever but when Hanako was brutally honest and told her they had no guarantee she'll end up a normal ghost and that she could get mummbled up and turn into an unrecognizable supernatural she broke down. She came back home that day and it must've been so relieving but I imagine it was also distressing and disappointing to have survived a suicide attempt. It was the last option she thought of. She has no idea what's going to happen now

[mari-lair]

Here are a handful of Hanako and Teru parallels/similarities cause I love them both!

Sulk when others are having fun without them.

“I have a plan and it will work, but you will fear for your life lol.” 

“ignorance is bliss”

“You can’t alter fate. Don’t even try it.”

“Fuck fate, the girl I love is involved, you bet I’ll try.”

Bonus: Teru living Hanako’s dream life

There's multiple people on tik tok calling Aida and Iro Loli/Shotacons (🤢) i do not think that's true at all. Aida has always drawn very childish like it's her artstyle but she's not over sexualising it.

Someone made nasty comments on Nene having boobs for some reason even though she's 15 she's going through puberty of course she has them it's normal to have them I don't know what people are on.

She drew her with appropriate body type for her age, it's fine it's not weird.

Sure Aida's drawn some weird stuff, but so have most mangakas ever. Gege, Fujimoto, Kishimoto, a lot of them have also drawn scenes with implications. (Yuji and his posters- Denji being groomed and THAT one chapter- Kakashi being Kakashi and Tsunade ) of course it's not an excuse at all. It's like a child saying "well she did so so can I!" Just because others do it doesn't mean you're excused.

It's pretty annoying how people also use that analogy to try and get away with drawing CHILDREN in nsfw.

There's some weird asses on Ao3 (mainly Mitsubirb Ew Ew Ew) using the excuse that the author and illustrator do sometimes weird stuff with the manga, BUT MAYBE CONSIDER NOT?? DOING IT?? THEY ARE KIDS. The oldest student is Sakura, Who Is 18, but was 17 at the very start because her school year is between 17-18 years.

I take things very seriously but I don't think it's right to treat this like that.

Gonna be ranting about the way harassment is talked about so leniently in tbhk.

That part where Tsukasa kissed Nene makes me so mad because we didn't get to even see Nene's genuine reactions, she only thought manwha type stuff it's so annoying.

Let's also talk about Hanako he's also harassed people constantly.

Looking up Nene's skirt, throwing Kou to the ground numerous times, never respecting boundaries even when told to.

I feel like I should add how both Aida and Iro are guilty of this in most of their stories actually.

Sure it's a popular thing in Japan to treat it as a joke but that's exactly why so many horrible shit heads can get away with harassment.

Oh god let's not forget the scene everyone on twitter and tik tok hates.

Chapter 69 during the aoiaoi fight, I will always defend it to my heart forever and ever but I acknowledge that the way Akane was touching her was kinda weird that's why I struggled to read it at first. The kiss at the end was consensual but holding her in place, and we whatever that panel of him was I don't wanna think about it was definitely not consensual.

I don't like how it's treated. I don't care that it's a comedy sometimes or that a shounen trope like this are common, both writer and artist are women I'd expect them to try and treat it with a little more care.

I've seen how most Japanese readers don't really address the bad things of the manga or maybe they just don't notice and I don't think that's good at all.

So many characters have done weird things I'm just picking who didn't, mitsuba and the adults seem to be the only ones who haven't harassed anyone really, even then they have faults.

Even Kou , he tied up Mitsuba it kinda pisses me off for no reason. Maybe im just petty but I knows it's supposed to be comedy, I still laugh at that thing but it's still weird how Kou tied him up in the first place and had no objections by Mitsuba at first maybe I'm thinking too hard about it.

I despise that part where Hanako enters Nene's body. Not consensual, plus using her as a way to get away with things.

People see it like a funny moment but it's still sexual harassment and harassment in general I hate is so much. The fact that he commented on Aoi's breast size makes me even more mad because he touched it wanting or not, and decided to say it even making fun of her.

Plus Nene was obviously uncomfortable with it I'm not sure how she was able to look at Aoi ever again.

Also poor Kou???? He's a poor 14 year old boy Hanako does not need to do that with Nene's body I feel so bad for both Kou and Nene. Kou wanted to do something about it but he couldn't even dare to look at the scene Kou Minamoto they could never make me hate you.

English translation fucked it up a bit , they made him comment on the occurrence saying "seductive" but what i think is more fit is "embarassing". AUGHHH tbhk stop putting your main characters in weird scenes challenge failed.

The image in the first volume of Nene being naked errr it's censored yes but weird. We could've had just hanako talking about it but we didn't need an artist rendition. Someone made an edit of that panel making her covered parts visible and it disgusts me like it would for other people too.

Talking so freely about wanting to see her naked is very weird from Hanako's part I don't exactly know if it does count as sexual harassment but for me it is.

I think we forget Sumire tried to erffghnb with Hakubo and I like that all she got was a headbutt. Oh oh and well Hakubo's kiss was uncalled for but her slap was even more.

The scene where she gets eaten goes down easier if you remember she was completely fine with it, both of them where okay with it happening (i still struggle reading that part 😓) so it's not really that bad.

[teruwasright]

I have an intense urge to gatekeep Teru honestly....

Yall had your chance, yall had time but yall bullied people that liked him relentlessly, made stuff UP about him just to hate him and as soon as he doesn't act the way YOU want (which is like Kou.) You drop him like a hat all over again.

And now yall wanna hop on him bc what? Terukane is popular now? Ya no.

I hate gatekeeping but honestly yall are starting to make me mad.

I love Teru fans but some of yall are clearly only fans bc Terukane is popular now or bc he's "behaving" rn.

Who's in favor of gatekeeping Teru? Bc I seriously wanna gatekeep him rn- yall don't deserve to like him now- yall had your chance

[azurentinex]

do you guys ever recommend something to a friend and then they say they’re going to read/watch it, but then they never do? or they read one chapter, tell you it was good, then just stop?

i wish they would read tbhk and bsd sm 😭😭 i swear it’s good you just have to wait a bit

[louewhi]

hi it is. 4am and im having hananene thoughts !!! i made this little doodle in my phone bc ARGHH i luv them...

also there's a silly hananene talk and hcs under the cut if anyone wants to read :3

i couldn't stop thinking abt how hanako always initiates physical touch w yashiro, but when she initiates it he gets confused!! or surprised!!! he just doesn't expect it!!!! and i find that. really cute

so this made me have the hc that hanako only likes physical touch when HE initiates it, and also that he's touch starved (i mean, he was alone for 50 years, and i don't think he had anyone to have physical contact with y'know?), the moment yashiro hugs him i think he would MELT, give that little guy a million hugs pleas

hanako is also to me the person that's always flirting, but if you flirt back he turns into a mess and gets all shy!

my point is: i need to see more of yashiro being affectionate towards hanako, just them being cute, physical affection, those things <3 but as they say, you gotta be the change you want to see in the world! so I'll try to make cute hananene art... just u wait...!!!!!

[dearchose]

Can someone explain to me how Nene can be so f***ing stupid? Like literally ten pages earlier, he KISSED HER!! Does that not say it clearly enough for her brain????

WHY???

(This is from toilet bound Hanako-kun btw) It's very good but sometimes it's... like this :D

Probably gonna draw them at some point ^^

[donut251155]

You know you talked about something too much when your sibling starts making jokes using its lore unprompted

Like once our parents were talking about one of us needing to cook and I turned to my sister with a look that said "please do not do it" - she looked at me in the eyes and said "I'm not like Teru, I can cook!!"

Outstanding

"strangers to lovers" is fun and all, but I personally like me some "strangers (a hand reaches out, two eyes meet) to acquaintances (your smile is dazzling, your eyes are beautiful) to friends (I wish we were closer, why aren't we?) to strangers (I've lost myself and you've lost me. do you remember? do you care?) to friends again (yes yes yes, stay stay stay) to ???? (please please I need you come back I need you I'm sorry I never realized before) to... who are you? (I'll hold your hand this time, if I never let go will you stay this time? can I save you?) to I am not the one you want, the one you yearn for (can you love me too? would you dare to?(I would I will I promise)) to friends? (I can't trust this, can you live for me?(can you, can I?)) to another familiar, yet not the same hand reaching out (not again, I was supposed to save you this time. why cant I save you?) to ...what am I? why did this happen to me? (I need to be with you, I need to understand) to friends (its a date to die for, but please stay this time) to opponent's (I won't do it, I need us to be together. even for a little while) to lovers (I love you I love you I love you I'm hungry)
