40 Day Anime Challenge 2023 Edition - Day 38: Anime you wish had a few more seasons

Noragami & Kamisama Kiss

Both of these series are FANTASTIC and perfect for their genres and stories, but both suffer from the classic manga-adaptation-syndrome: THERE'S SO MUCH MORE IN THE SOURCE MATERIAL!!!

Standalone, the Noragami anime is the stronger of the two, and could ALMOST pass for a perfect, well-rounded series.... if it wasn't for the infamous post-credits cliffhanger scene in season 2.

The Kamisama Kiss anime is a bit more rushed, but to its credit, it does have the Time Travel OVAs, but that still only covers around the halfway point of the manga!

Basically, both anime are fantastic adaptations and could ALMOST pass for perfection.... if it wasn't for the fact that there's SO MUCH MORE!!!

~~~

Honorable Mention:

Skip Beat!

The reason this wasn't my main choice is because it honestly deserves a REBOOT at this point cuz it's been more than a decade and has one of the WORST "read the manga!" cliffhanger endings EVER!

Hi! If it's not too much trouble, may I ask for prompt 38 with William Moriarty in Viking!AU? For some reason, I can easily imagine this very British gentleman taking on a role of viking tribe leader (who knows why ^^")... Thank you for accepting my previous request with William - I absolutely loved it! 💖💖💖

# tags: scenario; strangers/lovers; kinda romance; mostly angst; drama too; viking!au; slave!reader; inspired by vinland saga; mention of sexual harassment and death; bruises and blood; suggestive

includes: gender neutral reader ft. william james moriarty {mtp}

author’s note: thank you for another request, my precious anonnie! hope you will like it too :)

38. “You love flowers, right?” “Yes… I love flowers very much.”

Viking expeditions and their popularity among Scandinavian countries had their greatest apogee between the ninth and eleventh centuries of our era. At that time, specific royal families began to gain fame, as well as some names of the most murderous ascomanni around the globe. The Vikings and their trusted companions were warriors known for their strength, cunning, and animal instincts. Of course, the highest-ranking men were also characterized by above-average intelligence and knowledge, but definitely their prevailing features were bestiality, the desire to have large property and as many women as possible.

The leader of the most famous Viking clan in the extreme east of England – William – however, felt no urge to plunder or kidnap women for his own pleasures. He preferred talking to the city’s merchants, scientists and also bartenders, who by far had the longest tongues (and real alcohol). His name was respected even among great rulers, and business with him, though expensive, was by far the most valued and worth every coin.

Traveling by ship around European, Scandinavian and American countries was a kind of adventure for William, but above all also hard work – learning languages, cultures or even traditions of different peoples. From every place conquered or visited by him, the young leader learned as many lessons as he could; he learned the techniques of poisoning enemies, riding bisons weighing several tons or the technique of gluing shoes by himself. He learned about the religion of many minorities, but also boasted considerable interest from women and girls slightly younger than him. As a Viking, he saw many beautiful landscapes, tasted many delicious dishes and specialties, listened to folk music and gained indescribable amounts of gold, gems and jewelry.

However, there was the other side of the coin; he not only saw beautiful things, but also witnessed the death of people close to him, the cries of women and small children begging for mercy, he saw ships and cities burning, he himself administered justice to enemies and gave orders that a normal person would never even think of. He was at once an angel with a wonderful smile, but also a devil craving power and respect. He was disgusted with nobility and at the same time had as much money as the king.

Yet he has never personally raised a hand against a child, nor has he ever harmed a woman; he often spoke to them, showed them a way of escape, promised help when other clans raided defenseless villages. He also thanked for meals and killed those who forced women to perform sexual acts. Although he was a criminal in the eyes of men, women were always grateful to him and willingly helped him heal fresh wounds.

No wonder then that during the next expedition in a row, when he ended up in one of the minor cities and on the day of the slave trade, he almost killed one of the sellers who lined up five young girls – each of them had a dozen or so bruises, gray skin, tired eyes and dried tears on cheeks. The youngest of you was fourteen, the oldest almost thirty... And there was you: stood among them, wanting to die and never be born again. Even though your face was sleepless and your hands dirty from working in mud, there was still a little hope in your eyes. Barely perceptible and almost imperceptible.

You looked calm, and at the same time in your heart there was a huge fear that you were about to find yourself in even worse situation and next to an even worse man than your current owner.

Fortunately, that day the sky was a bit brighter than usual and had the color of myosotis.

“You love flowers, right?” William looked at you and your torn dress with the red poppy embroidered on the right breast pocket, then extended his hand towards you, which held a pale blue flower. A slight, if uncertain and tired smile appeared on your dry lips.

“Yes… I love flowers very much.” You said almost in a whisper, and the man nodded towards his subordinates.

Somewhere between the words that the blond Viking is taking all five girls and the warmth of the sheepskin coat draped over your shoulders, you heard your savior’s name and the announcement that you’d soon be exploring the coastal areas of France.

You were saved.

Just thinking about what if Kailah and Sam had won that firs elim? I would have loved it

🐚day 38 of 100 productivity challenge Wednesday February 07 🌊

It's been a while since I last wrote down something about my productivity, so here I am.

Today it's important because I wore down the last chapter of my thesis, I sent it to my professor and tomorrow I will start writing introduction and conclusion; I have to wait for a positive or negative advice, but I'm a little bit more relaxed and for me it's a sigh of relief.

After a long time I also have the time for cooking something, so I prepare a coffee and biscuits for my breakfast and a bean flan for lunch, so proud of me. In the early afternoon I relax myself with some music and the current "episode" of Amici, because yesterday I finished the anime of Komi can't communicate, so kawaii,I really appreciate that.

I missed have time for me and the other, it's not the 100% for the moment, but it's a start.
