Knives and ASPD (antisocial personality disorder) (spoilers in post)

To preface this, I’d like to say I am not trying to demonize people who have antisocial personality disorder (sometimes also referred to as sociopathy). I am not saying that people with ASPD would do the things Knives does or are automatically bad people, nor am I saying that Knives is possibly a sociopath only because of the atrocities he commits. I am simply trying to get a better understanding of Knives’s psychology as a character.

With that out of the way, I’ve been learning a lot about personality disorders in my psychology class, and I’ve done quite a significant amount of research in and outside of class about personality disorders (including reading about it them in the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders fifth edition text revision).

This comes to my current predicament. My teacher wanted us to think of examples in media of characters that exhibit certain personality disorders. I was particularly fascinated with the nature of ASPD, so I zeroed in my research on that disorder in particular. The first characters that came to mind for me were The Joker and Ren Yamai from Komi Can’t Communicate, but in my trigun brainrot I realized that Knives would actually be a very interesting character to consider.

While he meets most of the diagnostic criteria according to the DSM-5-TR, there are some things that are making me wonder if he actually has antisocial personality disorder. Mainly his motives.

I’ve seen a lot of discourse about his motivations. And the two most common interpretations I’ve seen are the following:

he genuinely believes that he’s helping the plants and doing what he’s doing selflessly for them and the benefit of them. He also genuinely cares about Vash and the Plants and is doing what he’s doing for “the greater good.” He is only hurting humans because they are destructive towards plants, and only hates them because they are cruel. If this is the case, he likely isn’t someone with antisocial personality disorder because his entire philosophy is based off of pro social, albeit extremely immoral and flawed motivations and ideas since he doesn’t consider humans a part of his social group.

Knives has convinced himself that he is fighting for the greater good of the plants to rationalize his cognitive dissonance, but that’s not what he’s actually trying to do deep down. His true motivation (which he is not something he is consciously aware of) is simply because he wants to hurt and kill humans out of his own fear of them and because of their inferiority. Essentially, he’s actually doing it all for himself and to quell his own fears and not because he actually cares about the safety or autonomy of other plants. In this case, he would be more likely to have antisocial personality disorder because his true motives aren’t in service of anyone else’s rights or benefits, and he exhibits antisocial behaviors towards the beings he does consider a part of his social group (plants). He also doesn’t actually care about Vash as his family, but only as a means to achieve his goals and be part of his plan.

There’s a lot more nuance to it than that of course, but in my personal interpretation I’d say Knives seems to align more with the second description. Here’s why: He consistently shows disregard for the autonomy, rights, and wants of other plants, especially Vash, and will exploit them just as awfully as the humans he hates have if it means achieving what he wants for his vision. This creates cognitive dissonance because he simaltaneously believes he’s a good person who is improving the world by doing that, but the humans who do that are bad and destroying the world by doing the exact same thing. So he rationalizes it by thinking he’s different because “it’s for the greater good of all plants and those who oppose me are preventing that” which then created more cognitive dissonance because he can’t exploit and abuse the plants without a second thought while also fighting for their rights and caring for them. The rights and safety of other plants don’t matter to him if they conflict with what he wants to do. Which would make the true motivation in this case, wanting to hurt humans out of his own fear and hatred (which developed because of his trauma), make sense.

When you think about Knives’s actions, you come to find that he cares more about hurting and destroying humanity than helping plants. He is fine with hurting the plants to hurt humanity, rather than hurting humanity simply for the good of the plants. He prioritizes “cleansing” the world of humanity over the actual lives of plants.

Here’s why I made this post. I think Knives is a very complex and fascinating character, and would like to hear other people’s perspectives and interpretations of him, especially in relation to his psychology and possible disorders he may have. So if you’d like to join me in psychoanalyzing him, I would appreciate hearing your opinion in a respectful discussion under this post. I’m especially curious about what any psychologists here might think, and I hope I can learn something new and also be corrected and get a better understanding if I’m wrong.

Ik this seems really strange that I’m writing and thinking so much about the psychology of someone who isn’t even real, but I just really like character analysis and think it’s interesting to see psychological concepts in media.

Today’s nonbinary character is Najimi Osana from Komi Can’t Communicate! Najimi uses she/they/he pronouns in that order of preference. She’s also transfem.

As of now they have no canon gender but are referred to in all sorts of ways.

Bocchi the rock! and Komi can’t communicate: Pretty privilege and social anxiety.

Bocchi the Rock! and Komi Can’t Communicate share the genres of slice of life and comedy. However, the difference is that Komi-san also includes romance, and they differ in terms of demographics: Bocchi the Rock! is a seinen, while Komi-san is a shonen. In both, the story revolves around a schoolgirl who struggles with social anxiety, which makes it difficult for them to participate in many activities or make friends easily.

However, the protagonists don’t look alike in terms of appearance.

Hitori Gotou, from Bocchi the Rock!, is a schoolgirl who always wears the same outfit: her pink tracksuit and school skirt (not counting the maid episode - Komi-san has one too). She doesn't fit conventional beauty standards, unlike Shoko Komi from Komi Can’t Communicate. Komi is also a schoolgirl, but she has long legs, beautiful and shiny long hair, soft and fair skin, big eyes and she’s very feminine. In the series, people sometimes refer to her as a “city girl” or elegant. This highlights the concept of "pretty privilege" in Komi’s anime.

Shoko doesn’t talk; she always uses her sketchbook to write on. Her friends usually don’t fully understand her personality or the way she behaves (Tadano being the exception). Even so, people love her. They always try to talk to her, and she’s regarded as “the goddess of the class.” Everyone wants to be her friend simply because she is pretty.

On the other hand, Hitori has spent most of her life alone. Her classmates don’t seek conversations with her, and when they do, she struggles to speak, so they eventually leave. Bocchi tries to draw attention to herself by wearing items related to her interests, like bracelets and shirts, and even bringing her guitar to class. Eventually, Bocchi finds people who like her for her personality.

This isn’t to say one is better than the other, everyone can have their favorite! I like both, and I love Komi and Bocchi!

Watch Bocchi the Rock! and Komi Can’t Communicate! :3 <3

relatability & bocchi

Bocchi the Rock! (which I’m gonna call Bocchi, and I'm gonna call the character Hitori), deals with so many different concepts and themes that it's hard to stick a label on it and call it a day. 

On MAL, Bocchi is classified as a comedy, and wikipedia states that it is a comedy, slice of life and music anime. And while these do suit the show, narrowing it down to simply a comedy and slice of life doesn’t truly convey the essence of the show. 

Bocchi is a story of music, as you would assume from the name, but it is also a show about performing. While music and performing are both closely tied together, they aren’t the same, and Bocchi makes that distinction through our main character, Hitori. 

We see how Hitori struggles to perform in episode 1, despite her mastery over music. That’s because performing is so much more than just the music. And as Hitori learns how to become a better performer, we see how she grows as a person at the same time, and Bocchi becomes a sort of coming-of-age show.

But I’m going off track. What I want to focus on is how Bocchi manages to succeed despite its seemingly simplistic premise. Technically, Bocchi isn’t the first anime of its kind to come out. We’ve had Komi-san can’t communicate, K-ON and so many more. So what makes Bocchi so special?

So many people who have reviewed Bocchi have expressed how the show was an unexpected hit for them, and the consensus within the community is that Bocchi was a hugely unexpected dark horse. 

The answer lies in episode ??. Hitori, unsure about the lyrics she wrote, confides in her bandmate Ryo to seek advice. Ryo, seemingly sensing that Hitori requires a boost of confidence, tells her this: 

After watching this episode, my perspective on the various pieces of media I've come across has changed. I've started to realise that across different types of entertainment, there’s an expectation that numbers must reflect how good the piece of media is. I mean, look at how Netflix cancels shows that don’t rake in the viewers they want, even if the show itself was masterfully made. 

Ok, so what does any of this have to do with how Bocchi managed to perform so well? 

(more under the cut)

As I established earlier, Bocchi is a comedy slice of life, with comedy usually taking the forefront of the show. With the sheer amount of gags and creative visuals (and I mean creative) the team shoves into each episode, the show almost seems to parody itself with how unserious it is. 

I’d argue that it is this very whimsical nature that allows Bocchi The Rock to succeed. 

For reference, let’s take a look at one of my favourite Starkid musicals, Twisted. Twisted isn’t Starkid’s first parody musical, but it is by far the fan-favourite and for a good reason. I recommend you watch Schaffrillas Productions video on Twisted, he makes a lot of really good points explaining why Twisted succeeds so well as a parody musical. But the most important part in his video is when he explains that Twisted’s comedic beats are what allow the emotional moments to deeply impact the viewers. 

“But that’s obvious,” I hear you cry. “Contrasting concepts is one of the most basic and typical ways to highlight emotional moments. What does this have to do with relatability?”

However, there’s a reason why it’s been so used for so many years. Writers don’t rely on juxtaposition, oxymorons and paradoxes when crafting their stories for unfounded reasons. 

And yea, you’re partially correct. The idea of putting two contrasting concepts side by side to bring out the best of each one is not new. We can see this in age-old classics like the tortoise and the hare, where the tortoise is slow but wise while the hare is fast and cocky.

Aren’t these devices merely a reflection of life? After all, what is life but an unending rollercoaster, a series of ups and downs where we are the temporary passengers of this exhilarating ride? 

It is this that makes the idea of relatability in Bocchi it's key to success.

The reason why Bocchi resonates with so many people is its very human portrayal. As a slice of life, Bocchi is supposed to show us excerpts of everyday life. But with the nametag of ‘slice of life’, Bocchi is expected to conform to the preconceived notions that many have formed of this type of media. The idea of a relatively peaceful and uneventful life, finding small happiness and being a show about cute girls doing cute things are all expectations that Bocchi was confronted with. 

But that’s not what we’re given. Instead, Bocchi shows us a cast of characters that are faced with a series of highs and lows and how they navigate and grow together. 

Most importantly, we get to see how Hitori lives. While her anxiety is often used to deliver comedic jokes, there is a certain level of meta-humour in these jokes. 

Like what Garnt says in this video, many people who are introverted or have experienced some level of anxiety can relate to some of Hitori’s shenanigans. Whether it be her overthinking or her inability to communicate with others in a way she believes to be “normal”, there is a feeling of painful relatability when we laugh at Hitori’s humorous moments.

Bocchi the rock is a show that recognises and understands its audience. The show knows it will not resonate with everyone and understands not everyone will enjoy it whether or not they can relate to Hitori. Yet, Bocchi the rock never demands its audience to like it more than they already do. 

And that’s so refreshing. With Netflix churning out cash grabs one after another, we’ve become so desensitised to the media screaming in our faces for our attention, demanding our time and effort, going so far as to conform and pander to everyone to achieve record-high views, only for us to forget about them in a couple of months. 

Bocchi the rock is a show of love. It is a show created out of love. It is a show about a love for music and performing. It is a show that sees its audiences and loves them.

Part two of random stuff about my Coon and Friends AU!

Next up: Mysterion (Michelle)

Mysterion is 12 in this au, in 6th grade.

Mysterion met Toolshed as their ‘secret identities’ at school (They had the same spanish class). Now they’re pretty good friends.

Mysterion is genderfluid and goes by She/He/They pronouns, although she will be referred to in this blog by She/Her to avoid any confusion. The only exception to this is if someone is talking about her other alter-ego, Prince Michelle, who will then be referred to by He/Him pronouns to avoid confusion.

Mysterion is Pansexual, but currently has a boyfriend she loves with all her heart, both as her secret identity and as Mysterion, even if her boyfriend doesn’t know about how she fights crime.

Mysterion has autism and Toolshed makes her fidget toys for her to use during long and boring meetings. Mysterion's favorite is the ‘infinity cube’ (look it up, it’s cool.).

Mysterion is the serious co-parental figure/older sibling type, similar to Toolshed, but in less of a mother-y way and more of a ‘keep them alive and get through the day’ way.

There’s already a running joke that Mysterion is insanely suicidal. Her desire to stay dead, similar to Kenny in the original series, is HEAVILY exaggerated for this joke, making her just seem incredibly suicidal, rather than the reality, which is that she simply isn’t afraid of death anymore.

Mysterion and Fastpass, although not ACTUAL siblings like Fastpass and Toolshed, get along well enough with a sibling-type bond. Fastpass tends to get into trouble a lot, and Mysterion always comes to his aid to sweep the battlefield.

Mysterion can and will bite people without hesitation if they provoke her enough. This au’s version of The Coon was one of the few victims. Mysterion has pretty sharp teeth, The Coon found out that day.

Mysterion likes anime and talks to Toolshed about it a lot, mostly Project Sekai, SK8 the Infinity, and Bungo Stray Dogs specifically. Toolshed, however only knows a bit about anime and only is in the middle of reading some, like Sailor Moon, The Promised Neverland, and Komi can’t Communicate, but Toolshed listens anyways to make Mysterion feel listened to.

The King of Villains/When I said I was evil by Voltaire

Honorable Mention - Rumor Has it by Adele

Death Battle had a lot of fights this season and a lot of great songs. Princess of Pride, Diabolical Invincible Me, Fallen Gods, this was a great year for Death Battle music. And that’s not including the commissioned ones. But starting this year, I am going to disqualify any songs that are Death Battle related so I can have non-Vs songs on this list. Which is why this is an honorable mention. Because it isn’t a Death Battle Related song. Rumor Has it by Adele with Apocalypse smashing Black Adam’s face to the beat was hilarious and I wanted to bring that up.

#10 - Eff this Job by Your Favorite Martian

This year saw the return of Your Favorite Martian. While they have put out some good songs, I don’t think they’re as good as their old work. With one exception: Eff this Job. I can see this song being part of their original releases and being just as fun to listen to then as it is now. So if I could recommend a song from their newest releases, this is the one I am going to highly recommend. 

#9 - Gangstar Torture Dance from Jojo Bizarre Adventure

I’ve seen the memes. I’ve seen the references. But I never saw the original source. And now that I have, I love it! I really need to sit down and watch Jojo one of these days. 

#8 - Nobody’s Fault from Devil Artemis

The first new song I heard this year, released right when I was about to break up Akuma and Lita in my comics. It perfectly captures the reason why I broke them up. While this is a cover, I heard the original and honestly wasn’t a fan of it compared to the Kermit Version. So this was my #1 for a while…

#7 - Caramelldansen Fusion Collab by SilvaGunner

Talk about a song that is packed with Nostalgia. Classic Internet Meme Song, mashed up with the likes of Weird Al, Sonic, Phoenix Wright and other musical styles. Listening to this is like a big shot of nostalgia to the ears.

#6 - It’s Just An by bb-panzu

If I have to criticize Komi Can’t Communicate for one thing, it’s that I’m not hooked on the theme songs. Luckily for me the Friday Night Funkin’ community brought this out. This mod I think perfectly captures the series. And honestly I do love how the song goes from Komi using pencil scratches to do her beeps and boops until later in the song.

#5 - "We Didn't Start the Bizarre" (A JoJo Song Parody) by Riverdude

Of the ever growing reasons for me to watch Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, possibly the best We Didn’t Start the Fire Parody using the first five parts of Jojo. It perfectly captures the feeling of the original song while bringing up so much about Jojo that I know thanks to Osmosis. If you ever feel like you need a recap, I think this could help.

#4 - Crushing Thirties by the Chalkeaters

2022 has to be Sonic’s best years in recent times. Sonic’s Second Movie is one of the highest grossing Video Game based Movies, IDW Series are getting critical acclaims, Sonic Frontiers brings fresh life to the games, getting so much support it was a contender for Fan Favorites beating even God of War, and the new Netflix Series got a lot of praise. And with this, these people got the lead singer of Crush 40 to sing a Crush 40 style song about Sonic’s 30th Anniversary. Granted, it is tongue and cheek but man, the lyrics have so many references to past Sonic’s songs it’s hard to not love. There’s another song they released that’s more… Questionable. I’ll leave it at that.

#3 - Monster Party from My Little Pony: Tell Your Tale

Pipp Petals is my favorite pony of this new generation. One of the reasons is she’s a horror fan and this song is a great showing of that. It’s also pretty catchy and for me possibly the best song of the series so far. This includes the actual show and the movie. So here’s hoping she continues to prove to be my favorite of G5.

#2 - Hug Me (Feat. @JuKayVid & @Chi-chi ) 【 Come and Learn with Pibby FAN SONG】by Jakeneutron

Waiting for this show to actually come out is definitely a pain. Luckily fan content exists to hold us off and this one is one of the best. Really captures the feeling of Pibby what she was before and after this Darkness invasion. If the show is as good as this music video, it will be a hit.

#1 - REAL MAN! (asdfmovie skateboarding cow song) by TomSka

The Skateboarding Cow as a joke. It was fine. But man, this song I think is one of the best to come out from the creators of Asdfmovie Series. The song really makes you really support this Real Man’s goal from being a Cow to a Skateboarding Champion. It also explains he was framed for the murders by that farmer. And honestly, it really is a great song for this year. Something I wish I had more of: determination to achieve your goals. And hopefully with the goals I have for next year, I can prove I am a real man as well.

Some crovan can’t communicate doodles, been watching Komi can’t communicate and Edward’s Ally both I highly recommend watching and decided to make a au, since this is  how much my verison of crovan would work  ‘Like the show, crovan doesn’t speak or talk, but instead of being seen as husbando he’s seen as weird or how the sudrians like that he doesn’t say anything mean but are kinda unnerved by his stare and the fact her appears out of nowhere sometimes without making a sound but he isn’t been mean like Gordon or Alfred 

He and Alfred aren’t friends or anything more like crovan avoiding Alfred like the plague and can’t be in the same room as him cause Alfred basically bullied him like the rest of the coworkers of his former railway, harassing and tormenting him then Alfred takes it far by stating something asking to him liking that crovan is quite since he was annoying and other mean words so it results in crovan being absolutely terrified of how others would respond and think of him. Alfred has the absolute gall of complaining that crovan doesn’t talk to anyone. Geez I wonder why 😒 

So instead this results as a response to trauma inside of a communication disorder since his anxiety stems from feared of being laughed and mocked for everything he did. Edward like the video helps out with crovan coming out of his shell revealing the scared lonely soul underneath. They’ve become pretty protective of one another with Edward defending crovan with words while crovan defends him with glares and intimidation though he can’t defend himself but it’s ok the squad coming to protect and whoop kick beat them.

So now he kinda trails around edward and is pretty much a scary bodyguard and sorta ends up in a friend group with Edward Henry Thomas and eagle (and later percy Boco bill and Ben, the last two forming a mini protection squad with trying to help crovan talk, although one time it ends with crovan in tears and edward’s scolding them (mostly bill and Ben who were very apologetic). He’s one of the few they don’t play pranks or tricks on, knowing of his past.)

his design is slightly inspired by the wonderful fabulous @projectanimations since they have a lovely design for crovan while edwards is basically a mashup of every Edward design I liked though that’s still a WiP

HERE’S MORE NARROW GAUGE GALS!! Quick sketch on Millie, who I based off of Undine Wells from Sleepless Domain, hence the pose and hairstyle. Then here her (the pose is from the concept art from The Princess and the Dressmaker) with Adeline, I’mma put her and that one Addy photo I did together very soon.

Here’s the references I used and copied in case anyone’s interested (I’m hoping it’s alright):

Here are my final designs of @c-rose2081 kiddos, I love them so much, I’ll die 4 them ok!!! Fyi, this is my interpretation on what they would look like, it’s not canon and I’m so sorry it’s so rusty, I’ve been practicing. Most designs are based on concept art of Encanto:

Character notes and random hcs that are not true so you can just ignore me:

✨Bianca I saw as a bit of a girly tomboy with her messy braid  with flower designs on her skirt, yes she look somewhat like a young Pepa but she isn’t 😅, her right leg is suppose to be lifted up but now I gave her a bit of a limp. Besides Mirabel she’s the big sister of the group! Her hearts big and she likes to take care of everyone when Mira isn’t there and she’s one of the stronger kids, being sporty as she plays soccer. There’s a 90% chance you’ll get punched if you sneak up behind her but she will apologize quickly, she’s plays in her skirts and dresses and does not mind getting messy, hence her blouse

✨Pablos I gave him bandages and cuts as he does get into fights and is quite reckless but is proud of them with people fearing him since it will protect his siblings, bullies (who teased them, mostly Bianca due to her limp and Adrianne for her vitiligo) now somewhat fear him, I added the bull patch on his jacket that he still wears alongside some dirt patterns and patches, besides his new clothes, he will still get them a bit ripped up and dirty with his tiny fishing knife.

✨Juan and Hernandez I gave them opposite colors from the wheel or in my case, both from Bash and Dash despite their personalities reminding me of Bill and Ben with them finishing each other sentences or arguing or just being together since they simply latched on to one another having a somewhat similar appearance , they happily consider each other to be twins and get along very well with Antonio.

✨Adrianne is a bit of a girly girl, I gave her vitiligo and like Pablos she has freckles, with fair hair of many shades in blonde but she’s very proud of who she is, mostly cause she’s confident thanks to her big sis Mirabel which is why people stopped messing with her as she will sass back (gives me Marie kitty vibes) besides her brother Pablos will fight them and very empathetic despite sounding stern about it she’s still a kid ok, I love her) so I gave her Isabela’s old concept art with the flower designs and color plus Isa’s old hairstyle

✨Elena is as quiet as a mouse for her age, with her dress color coming from AG Cecile/Addy Walker and also from Dolores with the different shades of red with the music notes even though you can really see it coming from something you can hear and I love the hc that Dolores hears Mariano sing and as a result can hum and softly sing to her, mostly lullabies and later Mariano does it for her, plus i said i wanted to give her afro-puffs, ruffles and bows, she’s a cutie 

Either way, I love them all and I hope you like my rambles and art 😊

My #1 post of 2022

Here are my interpretation of what @c-rose2081‘a children from their fic Guiding Light might look like. LET ME JUST SAY THEY ARE ALL ABSOLUTE CUTIES EVEN IF IT’S UP TO READERS INTERPETION ON WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE BUT I WILL DIE FOR THEM OK!!! I love them!! 😢☹️(❁´◡`❁)(●'◡'●)(❁´◡`❁)(┬┬﹏┬┬)╰(*°▽°*)╯

Highly recommend reading the story, it’s so beautiful 🤩. Just you’ll know the height difference is totally different cause I suck at that 🥲 I’ll fix it in the final design but they remind me a lot of my train kiddos, maybe they’ll be friends

* I imagined Elena in a dress to look like Dolores/Mariano fankid, I wouldn’t done her hair in afro puffs with bows which just left me 🥰✨ but I forget, maybe in the final design she has a blanket I would’ve done a toy 🧸 but I didn’t know what kind of animal

* For Juan and Hernandez, they remind me a lot of human ttte Bash/Dash and Bill/Ben designs so they are suppose to look like twins but also not really, Juan wears overalls with a striped diamonds shirt underneath while Hernandez wears striped suspenders and a shirt with u like designs on it, both wear scarves like Camilo’s concept art, with Hernandez being the more quieter, silent of the two

* Pablos is taller than them and the twins they‘re short ok, think Antonio height and I still see Pablos as the one who still get named up and be proud of his cuts, scraps and bruises, hence his rather raggard appearance even though he got new clothes but I forget his jacket but I’m figuring out the bull pose

* Adrianne looks up to Isabela so I imagined her like the village kids with braids to allude to Isa’s before she changed it with some flowers on her shirt and skirt

*Bianca is the second tallest and I know she looks like a young Pepa but she isn’t and doesn’t mind getting dirty and a bit sporty as well so I added that in the final design, she has curlier hair in a braid, she reminds me a lot of my human Molly design

✨ from skin tone I added some colored pencil but to a bit of imagination Elena is somewhere akin to Dolores/Mariano, Bianca’s is akin to Antonio/Felix/Alejandra, Adrianne I see as somewhat fair-skinned thanks to her hair being a fair color, maybe around Pepa/Cecilia the ‘twins’ are roughly the same except Juan has more freckles and wavy/curlier hair than Hernandez, who look like Antonio concept art, Pablos look somewhat like Camilo’s old concept art which is most of the inspiration alongside them trains gijinkas

But in all seriousness These characters belong to @c-rose2081 please check their tumblr out, they’re incredibly talented with many aus 🤩💖✨

Weekly Anime and Manga Log [06/11/2023]

This was a quiet week overall. I read the new volumes of Komi Can’t Communicate and Call of the Night. My goal is to catch up to Viz’s simulpub chapters later this year when the gap is closed. I finished the most recent Conan volume on the Viz Manga app. There was a new series from Jump+ this week. Next week starts a round of 2 new series from Jump. Mashle likely ends for 1 slot, and the other slot is a good question right now. Discussion and spoilers for the following titles below: One Piece 1086 Blue Box 104 Nue’s Exorcist 5 Cipher Academy 27 Marriagetoxin 50 Magilumiere Co. Ltd. 73 Demon Lord Exchange!! 1 [NEW] Pokemon Horizons Ep.10

One Piece 1086 This chapter concludes the second half of the Reverie arc with a few major reveals. We first learned the names of all the elders, which has been a long time coming especially given that we found out about Saturn several months ago. Secondly, we saw the leader of the Holy Knights and the Figarland family. This name was first revealed in Film Red because Shanks belongs to that family too. Overall the mid-arc intermission was longer than I expected for sure. Its cool to get all the background to why characters are where they are right now, but at the same time the Reverie was 5 years ago. It feels like we should have already known everything about how it resolved. We haven’t seen Luffy since March. One Piece will be on break on a month while Oda recovers from Eye Surgery. Hopefully it’ll go well for him! Blue Box 104: Well folks it actually happened. Taiki confessed at the end of last chapter and.... Chinatsu successfully heard it. She took a moment collect her thoughts and responded in the affirmative. Taiki and Chinatsu are going to be going out now. This is where a typical Jump rom-com would be ending because the love triangle is over and the main couple is going out. However, this very much feels like the mid-point in the story. I hope they don’t keep it a secret from their friends if the series continues. It would be really interesting to see how they balance their sports and love life. Chinatsu and Taiki still haven’t won anything notable in their respective sports yet either. I’d like to think we’re simply moving into a new phase of the story. Nue’s Exorcist 5: My goal is never to be overly negative if I can help it, but I also want to share some thoughts on Nue’s Exorcist. When the one shot was published last year I thought it looked promising. It had striking art and enough personality to make want to see more. Well now we’re 5 chapters into the serialization and its been an endless string of disappointment. Nue is a boring character outside of her design and the male mc literally no reason to exist in this story. In the first chapter they had to use the same flashback panel 4 times to get you to care. There’s also an exorcist character who I can’t figure what her purpose is because the story can’t define any character traits. The art striking from the one shot is largely gone. Not a single spread page yet. Jump usually likes to have an exorcist series around at all times, and this one is the weakest in recent memory. It’s surprised that someone is approving such bland chapters. Tokyo Demon Bride Story had personality despite its mostly unoriginal concept. Sorry Jump, this series is a miss. Cipher Academy 27: Coming off the heels of Tayun’s overwhelming win last chapter, we enter the second match of this code battle. This time staring the bandage girl Shutan. The theme of the game is a password guessing battle where everyone needs to be on the same page about the correct response expect for the enemy “spy”. Using Jojo examples and a character speaking upside down are both very Nisio things. I was actually able to understand the punchline of this code match for once. It relies on Japanese having multiple ways for people to refer to themselves in the first person. Next chapter promises a 2v2 match to speed things up. Just maybe our class can walk with a clean sweep of victories.  Marriagetoxin 50 I figured now would be a good opportunity to discuss this series since its been licensed by Viz and reached 50 chapters this week. Marriagetoxin is about an assassin named Goro who is looking to find a marriage partner. Throughout the series he meets many potential partners and helps them in some way. After a battle heavy arc that culminated in the classic shonen mc power up moment, the newest arc comes back to the series roots. Goro’s family will never allow him to be happy. It would go against the traditions this family of poison users is built upon. I think the art and direction are both fantastic. Its the kind of series that’s entertaining to read with some heartfelt character arcs. I just don’t think it has a lot of depth for week to week discussion. Anyhow, I think the story is in a good place right now. A lot of manga serializations tend to feel better about fleshing our their characters at about the 1 year mark. Magilumiere Co. Ltd. 73 Similarly, Magilumiere was also licensed by Viz this week. Its an adult magical girl series where this is a full fledged job profession. Think Symphogear but they do this for a living. The story focuses on corporate big business vs. start-ups and Regulation vs. Deregulation of technological innovations. I wouldn’t call this a mature title by any means, but the business commentary can be interesting. The current arc is versus a man made Kai that was planted to show the public how dangerous they are. The enemy is looking to deregulate magic technology by scaring the public. While our main characters argue that regulations are a necessary tool to keep peace and stability. At the core of this battle is a rivalry where a girl in a rival company has to overcome her long held mentality that she is nothing more than a tool for her company. I enjoy the series for being a different take on magical girls that is more than a kids show while not being mature and edgy like the late night anime versions of the genre. Demon Lord Exchange!! 1 [NEW] Let me start by saying I’m that into stories of RPG style parties beating the Demon Lord. I find them to be very often uninspired and too close to video game logic. But, I’ll always give everything Jump+ publishes a try. The spin for this series is the Demon Lord is bored and instead of killing the hero’s party he offers to switch souls with the heroine character. The Demon Lord wants to experience the human realm for a year to get a different view on life. I didn’t find the premise nor its characters that interesting. It might have some funny moments here and there with the almighty Demon Lord reacting to mundane things he’s never seen before, but overall I am pretty sure this series won’t be for me. Surprisingly its not perverted for the time being. The artist does a good job capturing the sense of scale for both the size of the creatures, and the wider world near the last page I plan to give it a few more chapters to see what happens before making a final decision about whether to follow it or not. Pokemon Horizons Ep.10 This week was the long awaited debut of Nemona from the SV games. She is the exact same down to the mannerisms and constant desire to battle everyone she comes across. Nemona is also voiced by the amazing Eri Kitamura. The plot of this episode was meeting the grass gym leader Brassius to find out what he knows about the shiny Terra Rayquaza. They helped him overcome an artistic slump and Roy battled him. I was somewhat surprised to see Roy lose (I was worried for a moment that he might display Ash behavior). That likely means Roy might re-battle him later or possibly Riko takes a turn. Nemona was mostly here to add commentary and nudge the story more into the gym leader route from SV. Regardless, they’re off on a mini adventure to the nearby forest to investigate the information they learned. It seems we’ll be in Paldea for a little bit based on the upcoming episode titles.

I did an animatic from Komi can’t communicate, Ruthanne finally talks :3

Since she is the Y/n from a date with Markiplier it’s a head canon she can’t talk due her communication disorder like Komi.
