A more recent piece I made for pride (the last one I posted was actually something I made weeks ago and I posted it on my twt that time), this was in tribute to my first gay ship ever.

It’s Yuri/Wolfram from Kyo Kara Maoh! 🫶

So...the nostalgia trip continues.

Current obsession is KKM. *Sigh*. That stands for Kyou Kara Maou. Or ‘Demon King from Today’ is the English name for it I believe.

It’s an extremely weird series and the official translations were not as good as the fan translations in my opinion, so we might have different understanding of the whole thing if you watch it now.

ANYWAY! The point is, I have this indescribable urge to discuss one of my favourite pairings of all time:

Conrad x Yozak!

(He’s officially called Josak, which makes more sense, but like, I like the Y damn it!)

In this essay I will talk about the confusing and complicated relationship between these two characters in which no one can tell whether they’re actually friends or soldiers that were part of the same army at one point in their lives.

I will be forever sad that new fans missed out on the fansubs which translates this scene slightly differently to the official subs.

As a long time Conzak fans, let me share how the fansubs translated the dialogue after Conrad asked Yozak why he rescued him even though he didn't trust him.

Yozak: Don't get conceited! Conrad: About what? Yozak: "Oh! I'm so loved!"

In other words, in the official subs, Yozak is seemingly teasing Conrad for being in love with Yozak. But in the fansubs, Yozak is confirming Conrad's suspicion, he is confirming that Conrad is correct in thinking that Yozak is in love with him.

Yozak is basically going "Yeah, I'm in love with you. Yeah, I'd die for you. Yeah, don't get a big head about it even though I love you more than life itself."

And Conrad is pleased.

In my opinion, the fansubs translation is more in line with the way Conrad and Yozak's relationship develops throughout the series. I actually think that's possibly what the official subs was also going for, but by taking out the quotes marks, they make it seem like Yozak is teasing Conrad for being in love with him (which is also very shippy in its own right).

These two have one of the most complicated relationships in the series and this episode utilised that perfectly.

It may be filler, but in my heart of hearts, it’s canon.

Day 7 of Niji Nights: Representation! Characters of Color in Anime Part 4

Welcome back, to yet another night of Niji Nights! We’re bringing in another year of Characters of Color in celebration of Juneteenth. There’s nothing more that I love than highlighting characters of color. I feel Japan sometimes has skewed views on other cultures that is different than theirs but some of these characters were pivotal in the plot in these anime. It’s rare to see a colored…
