random thoughts about [nanbaka spoilers]

what if elf taking place of jyugo consciousness when he was in life threatening danger was direct defense mechanism against hiiro since in order to manipulate jyugo's memories it was required to kill his physical form?

elf abilities are ambiguous but in jyugo's instance it's only times when he was able to show up, activate abilities jyugo was not aware of and defend jyugo

Can you write an Elf one-shot with a fem reader who gets cloying with him after watching a movie where one of the protagonists dies because he is afraid of losing him please? I just want that madman to get soft and shut up for a few minutes.

Absolutely! I want that too haha

(⚠️Light TW for mention of death and description of how a character dies⚠️)

🔪What's the Matter, Dearest? - Elf x Cloying Fem Reader Scenario🔪

While waiting for Elf to come back from work, you were sat on the couch, watching a movie. It was quite the nail-biter, leaving you on the edge the whole time.

However, what you hadn't expected in the slightest was for one of the protagonists to get shot, more less practically pelted with lead, and killed. It was quite graphic, and it had you yelping in shock at the fact that one of the main characters, let alone one that you had gotten attached to, was offed.

You had to pause the movie not even a few minutes after the scene thanks to your mind wandering to the possibility of your beloved boyfriend, Elf, getting killed in a similar way thanks to his dangerous work.

You couldn't bare to see that happen to him. The thought terrified you.

Then came the fear of if he wouldn't return from work this very day. After all, it's a bit past nine. He should've been home already! Oh god, what if he's hurt? Or worse?!

You ended up pacing the living room as your mind darkened with these worries, until the sound of the lock clicking broke you out of your scared trance.

When Elf appeared in the doorway, lifting a hand up in exaggerated greeting with a cheery "Oh honeyyy! I'm homeee~!", it felt like a thousand pounds worth of weight was lifted off your shoulders.

"Elf!!"

You chirped in a more heightened voice than you intended, running up to and grabbing onto him, nuzzling your face into his chest.

"Oh!" Elf exclaimed, a bit stunned by how seemingly excited you were that he was back. Sure, you were always excited to see him come home from work, but this was.. different. "What's the matter, dearest? Missed me?"

You simply nodded your head as you kept your face buried against his shirt, letting out a tiny noise reminiscent of a whimper as you did. He chuckled and wrapped his arms around you, leaned down, and placed a little peck of a kiss on the center of your head.

"How cute.~" He cooed, nuzzling his own nose against your hair. "Wanna take this to the couch, baby?" He gently questioned, and you nodded a bit more eagerly than you meant to.

Shortly after, the two of you found yourselves laying together on the plush fabric of the couch, legs tangled and arms wrapped around one another. Your face was now resting in the crook of his neck, holding onto your man as if he'd disappear.

Elf's eyes were closed as he rested them, which was much needed after a long day. He was content, comfortable, as you clung to him, although he did mentally note that you were being a bit more lovey than normal.

Eventually, you spoke up.

"Elf, honey.."

"Mmm?"

"Promise me something?"

He opened an eye and glanced down at you expectantly with a hum of question.

"Promise me you'll be careful? I can't stand the thought of losing you.."

You nuzzled deeper against him to further express your worry, and the ticklish sensation of your breath on his skin made him shiver a little bit, before he turned to fully look at you with a soft expression.

"Oh, baby.. is that why you were so anxious to meet me after work?"

The only reply you could manage was a little whine, and Elf was quick to startle at the sight of tears in the corner of your eyes. He moved to sit up with you, using his thumbs to wipe your eyes dry.

"There, there, little one.. I'll be careful. I promise."

You sniffled and moved in to hug him tight, nuzzling against him once more. He returned the gesture and peppered your head with little kisses, whispering sweet nothings to you of comfort and reassurance. You sighed, finally allowing a smile to come to your face, feeling safe and comforted in your lover's embrace.

another random observation rant from 1⃣ apologizer anon (it got quite long, I'm sorry 🥲)

sometimes futamata uses scientific concepts for togabito powers

most obvious example would be musashi and his battle against ikkaku when he was able to convert electrical energy from attacks into thermal energy and adsorb it without damage (which is cool af btw)

most confusing for me was (and still is) elf? what is he exactly? if I understood correctly, he doesn't have physical body yet somehow he can have presence when there ppl infected with him

so let me introduce you concept of clonally transmissible cancer! yay

a transmissible cancer is a cancer cell or cluster of cancer cells that can be transferred between individuals, these cells are basically parasites, that mutated from regular cancer cells in very specific conditions, it's super rare even in animals

most documented is CTVT founded in dogs and other canines

so imagine there was a dog a long long time ago, that dog got cancer and then that cancer cells mutated

these cells act like separate organism and can be transmitted to other dogs but still are identifiable as that poor first dog even after many many years, a parasite that technically is immortal dog

this is very similar to how i imagine elf power to work

he was an actual person before but now exist as cells with some sort of hive mind that reside in different hosts are able to replicate inside and ultimately take over their host

HELP THAT'S ACTUALLY SO COOL.

No notes. This is just genuinely very interesting. Wikipedia article on CTVT, if anyone's interested.

Elf: “But I did this all for you!! Just for you!! So you would remember your traumatic past memories ^^”

Jyugo: “You killed about 500 people and also I don’t feel great…”

Nanbaka x Twst

(This is gonna be a rant btw)

So I’m really into Nanbaka, especially the manga! I don’t like the anime that much but I 110% recommend watching or reading Nanbaka. Such a great and unique story.

And that got me thinking, what if one of the characters from Nanbaka woke up in twst. I can imagine how horrifying this would be. Like imagine if hajime was there….

He would beat the living soul out of Crowley. But it would be even more worse if Elf was in twst. Like this man is insane, he would not hesitate to kill someone. And would torture someone out of pure boredom. Like this man caused so much trauma to Jyugo and Musashi. That they start to shake from the mention of him.

If Elf was there it would be game over for them. For the people who don’t know nanbaka and don’t know who Elf is. Imagine Floyd but 30x more crazier and 30x more blood thirsty. Floyd can act cute at times but Elf is just pure crazy. I hate Elf so much but he is just so interesting TvT

Hello! Welcome back! So good to see you again! How have you been? May I please have a scenario with Juugo and Musashi when another one of The Man With The Scar's experiments comes to the prison with ice abilities? She doesn't want to start trouble, but her power is directly connected to her emotions (like if she's scared, entire glaciers form in the immediate area). She's cooperating with Yozakura with his investigation. Then one night, Elf comes and activates her power so she can't control it, and the prison is encased in ice. How would Juugo and Musashi handle it if they thought the only way to break through is to kill her, but then it's suggested that "you're not alone anymore, we're here for you" and a tight hug is enough to pull her out of the despair?

Haiii! I've been good, thank you!! (´∀`)

Ooh interesting idea! I snipped it down to the point where Elf shows up, otherwise this post would be wayyy too long (^^ゞHope you enjoy regardless!

I/N = Inmate's Name

* * *

🔓🔥 "You're not Alone." - Musashi + Jyugo comforting Ice Powers inmate Scenario 🔥🔓

Musashi and Jyugo first heard of I/N after word got out between the inmates about how she encased half her building's block in ice, and it was also rumored on how she was experimented on to lead to these powers manifesting.

Both Musashi and Jyugo talked about whether or not it was possible that she had been a victim of the Man with the Scar, and they agreed- yeah- it's quite possible.

One day, Elf shows up while she's in training, and causes her powers to go haywire. Starting with Building 5 where she had been, the prison quickly becomes the equivalent of Antarctica, ice covering nearly the entire island.

Chaos ensues, and when Momoko realizes the situation at hand, she orders for the other experiments- Jyugo and Musashi- to be sent to the inmate's location. Perhaps being people who underwent experiments like she had, they might be the key to stopping her, one way or another.

Hajime and Kenshirou rush the two inmates to the ice spike-covered training ground, where I/N was on the ground, clutching her head as ice continued to spew out, covering the ground and area all around her body.

Hajime suggests killing her, stating that this situation is too out of control, and he doubts there'd be any other way to stop it. Kenshirou however shuts that idea down, saying there must be another way other than needless violence and bloodshed.

Jyugo during this conversation is staring out at I/N, heartbroken to see her like that. He understood her pain, and he just couldn't stay on the sidelines. He runs toward her, calling for Musashi to follow.

The pyrotechnic is hesitant for a moment before darting after Jyugo, and the guards watch, quite stunned to see the two going right into the danger zone with seemingly no plan.

Jyugo dodges patches of ice and spikes as they nearly impale him, getting a cut on his arm in the process. Musashi follows directly behind Jyugo, relying on his own heightened senses to keep him from harm.

When Jyugo and Musashi get to I/N, she's sobbing, telling them to back away before they get hurt-- that she can't stop. That it hurts. That she's scared.

Jyugo's heart shatters with each cry, and he thinks as hard as he can, unsure what to do to help-- but there had to be something. Anything.

Musashi ends up speaking after a moment.

"I/N.. it's okay. You're okay." He steps closer, kneeling down in front of her. "You gotta try and calm down."

I/N sobs out that she can't calm down. That everything is too much. She's so scared, she's alone-- nothing can help.

Jyugo, following Musashi's lead, kneels down as well.

"You're a victim of.. him, aren't you? The man with the scar?" He gently asks, reaching out a hand toward I/N cold, ice ridden body. "We are too. We're here to help you. You're gonna be fine."

I/N manages to open her eyes, the tears in them freezing as they drip down and solidify against her cheeks.

"That's right. You're not alone anymore. We're here for you."

Musashi nods at Jyugo's words, his own hand coming out to gently grasp I/N and pull her in towards them. He and Jyugo hug her tightly, ignoring the way the ice on her body stung their skin.

I/N is still for a moment before whimpering and hugging them back, sobbing against their clothes. Slowly, the ice around them starts to melt, and her own body starts to warm up again.

Hajime and Kenshirou are left speechless as they watch it all melt, the mess that had become of the prison fading away with each passing second.

Eventually, everything is calm again, and the ice has completely melted. Jyugo, Musashi and I/N remain in their embrace as Kenshirou turns to Hajime, telling him to report to the Warden.

With a nod, Hajime turns, making a fast paced journey back to the office to let Momoko know that the situation has been resolved. He just can't believe that those two managed to stop her the way they did. At least there won't be a massive cleanup; saves him some extra work.

Ok, so this question comes from someone who hasn't read far into the manga yet, but I am immune to spoilers, so I've already heard and seen a lot. Yes, including THAT. And I apologize if such questions/theories have been sent in before.

What do you think about the theory of Uno being possibly related to the film director who kidnapped and groomed Tsukumo? Especially considering his backstory has not been revealed in detail yet (at least I haven't seen anyone talk about it anywhere).

There's quite some similarities and "coincidences", I refuse to believe she's supposed to be just a one-time background character, esp since we don't even have an actual name for her as of now.

- Most obviously, they have similar hair colouring.

- Depending on what the sequel reveals regarding the "how" and "why" behind Jyugo's murder and the genuity of his friendships with cell 13, Uno might have shown he inherited the talent to manipulate people from her. Like mother, like son. Although at the same time he's been established to be very skilled at reading and seeing through people, so in a way he might also represent an opposing force to her... who knows.

- Uno is implied to have been raised by a single father (at least in that short flashback background in the anime, where we see a younger him being ignored by his dad). So an absent bio mom might already be a possibility, which would fit right in with the theory.

- In S1 E7 Tsukumo said he's been lied to for 18 years. And guess who is also 18 years old at the time he said that? What if the lie about her supposedly losing her son in an accident was actually somewhat based in truth? (or maybe something less dramatic happened)

Also, a different thing I've noticed, which might foreshadow a possible connection or future encounter to come:

Uno's name actually means "One", but his inmate number is 11... which is also the number Elf's name is based on...

Aight, sorry for my yappery, feel free to correct me if I got anything wrong, those questions just have been bothering me for very long and it'd be nice to hear someone else's thoughts.

(PS: if this doesn't arrive under anon, please don't post. Thank you🙏)

Never heard this theory before, but honestly vibing.

Yeah, Uno's backstory is almost strikingly blank. We get people from Nico and Rock's past coming into the picture, but I cannot tell you a single thing about Uno.

This would make a lot of sense for his backstory!

Hair colour means next to nothing in Nanbaka (Yamato's daughter has purple hair somehow), but Hattori has the same color of hair and he was implied to be the director's soon too, so there's something to it. He's older than Tsukumo tho so can't be the one she lost eighteen years ago.

Also in regards to Elf (the German word for Eleven) I have nothing to say to that except yeah it is a strange coincidence.

Adding on, the German word for twelve, which is Zwolf, should definitely be the name of an edgy dog-hybrid character.

Keep yappering, it's fine! I like hearing theories!!
