Is he aroace?

🧡    💛     🤍     🩵    💙

Reasoning: shows discomfort and disinterest when someone is affectionate or flirty, no matter the gender. doesn't dislike people, quite the opposite, is just really averse to anything romantic. when other male characters blush at beautiful lady, he either isn't paying attention or praises technicalities.

And since I can't stop talking about aroace characters, here is a list of characters that I headcanon as part of the aroace spectrum, and some canon! In no specific order, and I'm not going to give reasons, I just know that they are aroace (some have strong aroace coding, others just give me aroace vibes). They are all on the aromantic spectrum, I won't include the ones that are (or I think they are) just asexual, for the aro week.

1. The demon of the moment:

Alastor the Radio Demon, from Hazbin Hotel.

2. The guy who literally changed the weather to make a girl lose interest in him:

Saiki Kusuo, from The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.

3. The most talented and pizza lover ninja turtle:

Michelangelo Hamato/Splinterson, from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (almost every version).

4. The dragonlord, an ace in magic:

Merlin, from BBC Merlin.

5. The girlboss of the Scientific Kingdom:

Kohaku, from Dr Stone.

6. Mr. I-have-all-the-bitches-behind-me-but-I-don't-want-any-of-them:

Senku Ishigami, from Dr Stone.

7. The guy literally left a harem for a coke:

Gen Asagiri, from Dr Stone.

8. Romance pursues her, but she is faster:

Anzu Hoshino, from Romantic Killer.

Feel free to use the edits if you want.

There are 13 characters but I only can publish 10 pictures, so go to see the rest in Part 2!

Is he aroace?

Reasoning: I feel like I don’t need to explain this one. He is absolutely repulsed by the idea of a relationship. He just needs his friends and his science

[thearoaceshark]

👀 HI HI! it was an absolute joy to read your thoughts on aroace Senku! And I hard agree on romance-repulsed and sex-neutral because I swear that’s LITERALLY how he’s written, I love it

About season 2 and 3! I watched them and I’ve also binged the entire manga. Spoiler, everything about him remains the same LOL. I do highly recommend watching Dr. Stone because familial love is a big focus and his aroace moments are ✨gems✨ Senku as an aroace icon is one of the reasons I kept up with this series haha

AROACE(spec) KOHAKU!!!!

I haven’t really given this much thought but I AGREE!! Spoiler, she shows some interest in Senku towards the end but it’s kept light/casual because they’ve always been like that - a long relationship built on familiarity. She never hesitates about loving him, but she also doesn’t show that love romantically. Maaaaybe implied but never aloud. Also, they are so funny when put in romantic situations together, it’s AMAZING. And when we spotlight their relationship, it’s very heartwarming (season 3!). Even the people around them agree their relationship is not romantic in nature. GAH they’re both so aroace coded.

Realizing I often don’t appreciate their friendship verbally because I know they’re shipped together. :,) it’s nice to talk about! Plus I LOVE Kohaku as a character, she’s fantastic.

I’m put my Gen analysis in a new post djfjskkd this is LONG

Well this definitely made me want to watch Dr Stone, maybe I'll start watching it again or I'll start reading the manga! Platonic and familial love and the found family trope is something I love, one of my favorite tropes. And I also absolutly love how much aroace is Senku, such an icon, it will be more funny to see it now that I know I'm aroace.

KOHAKU AND SENKU, THE AROACE DUO. They are both such good characters and I always loved their dynamic, strong girlboss and nerdy chief scientist. Their friendship is just so wonderful.

I will be waiting for your Gen analysis!!
