Summer 2024 Anime Round-Up

Supposed to come out last week but MHA and Monogatari decided to be weird and bleed over into next season (Not waiting for your final episode Monogatari)

Anime of the Season: "Oshi no Ko" Season 2

Best Opening: Tsuyogaru Girl (Makeine)

Best Ending: Burning ("Oshi no Ko" Season 2) & Kamakura STYLE (The Elusive Samurai)

Drops: Atri -My Dear Moments- & Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian

Plans to Watch at a later date: N/A

Completed:

Shoushimin Series - (9/10)

As it turned out the creator of Hyouka wasn't a "one hit wonder". (Though I don't know if they have other works outside of these two). Absolutely fantastic character study that can balanced being thoughtful, suspenseful and completely unhinged. I can't wait for S2 where we'll -hopefully- see Osanai finally punch someone.

Psuedo Harem - (7/10)

A anime with 'Harem' in the title that isn't trashy and is acutally...good? In today's society?

Been a while since I've seen a romcom this cute. Warning to any Saori Hayami fan watching this though. You definitely will fall in love with her more by watching this.

The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to Be Archenemies - (9/10)

The circumstances surrounding this manga are tragic but that didn't take away from this being an very well produced shoujo series. Bones definitely sought out to honor the late mangaka with this production and it paid off in the direction and cinematography. Also, as I grow older, I can't help but appreciate 12 minute anime episodes; as rare as they are.

Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines! - (8.5/10)

The show I was most looking forward to every week. I don't think this writing was as smart as I thought it was, and lord knows I'm tired of light novels trying to be as meta as possible. But this show had a lot of heart and was very well directed for the director's (Shoutarou Kitamura) debut. Really hoping we get more of this someday.

Yatagarasu - (9/10)

My dark house of anime this cour. And maybe all year. This was one of my "Check it out cause it's getting good word of mouth" shows, and was instantly captivated. The world-building and character drama is so intense that every episode was exciting. My only critique would be how stiff the animation looked but from what I've gathered, this show was working with a rather small team at Pierrot. Please watch this show.

The Elusive Samurai - (6/10)

I really wanted to like this show more than I did. I was a huge fan of AssClass and a work from Cloverworks with Umehara as AniP? Sounds like a recipe for success. Unfortunately, this show didn't know what genre it wanted to be and it hampered my enjoyment quite a bit.

NieR:Automata Ver1.1a (Cour 2) - (8/10)

A2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

(also I need to keep playing the game cause wtf was that final episode)

Wistoria: Wand and Sword - (7/10)

You can take the Black Clover out of Yoshihara but you can't the Yoshihara ou- uhhh.

Honestly I'm not sure how to write my feelings on this show outside of "Danmachi/Black Clover" love child. We will be there for S2

"Oshi No Ko" Season 2 - (10/10)

They told me Tokyo Blade arc was a peak fiction...At this point, my only fear is that OnK can only go downward from here.

Also everyone in this show needs therapy (though if you've seen one episode of this, you probably knew that already.)

Mission: Yozakura Family - (7/10)

Damn you Disney+!!! How many more shows must be put in your jail and remain hidden from the world. This show reminds me a lot of Hitman Reborn which maybe is why I stuck around to watch it till the end. It did get kind of dumb once they explained the powers but still very enjoyable.

Also shoutout to the ED "Kekkon Koushinkyoku" for being a really really cute ending that didn't make my favorite ED of the season, but still felt it worth mentioning.

My Hero Academia Season 7 - (8.5/10)

Usually when a show gets a new director it get's a decline in quality with the size of that decline varying from show to show. But sometimes, you get a new director that just knows what she's doing and takes MHA to some of it's best seasonal run since Season fucking Three back in 2018!!!!!

*cough* what I'm trying to say is "MHA IS FUCKING BACK"

Monogatari Series: Off & Monster Season - (8/10)

Fuck you monogatari for not finishing in time and delaying my round up. uhh anyway Monogatari is back and still as peak as ever. Nadeko and Shinobu are high up in my "best monogatari girls" tier list (Shinobu is actually no.1) so it was a treat to see them get focus again. Nadeko's arc high the hardest for me in what it means to confront and move on from you past. Just great writing once again. Can't add more than what I've been saying since Bake.

[schwirrymartz]

Yomi no Tsugai is almost three years old, so it's time to at least dream of an anime adaptation. So, I tried to think of who I hear when I read the manga, and came up with this list. I tried to provide video examples, but, sadly, not every seiyuu has a "{name} roles compilation" video. Also, some videos are hyperlinked because of tumblr's 10-videos-per-post limit.

Under the cut is the part of the main cast I could come up with voices for. Warning: the fact that I have only seen like three anime (is it comical exaggeration? who knows) is even more glaringly obvious here.

aaaand i'll have to repeat because this is the piss on the poor website: there's no news about the anime yet! no one is talking about it officially at the moment! it's my dream cast! who i personally imagine when i read! you absolutely can and should disagree with me and maybe share who you would like to hear as who!

Yuru IMHO, he should be voiced by male seiyuu. For example, Takeo Ootsuka (the closest to what I imagine is Oshi no Ko's Aqua).

Asa (real) Her seiyuu should be able to switch between two modes: the "cold and ruthless" mode and the "sweet teenage girl" mode, and her voice should be relatively deep. I can hear someone like Mizuki Nana (FMAB's Lan Fan, Uramichi Oniisan's Utano Tadano). I mean, Lan Fan has both of these sides.

Asa (fake) She is a sweet girl like 100% of the time, and Saori Hayami's voice (Spy x Family's Yor, Majo to Yajuu's Phanora) would fit her perfectly.

Danji (and Ken) I hear each of these guys' lines in either Megumi Ogata's voice (Shinji from NGE, Hanako from Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun), or Maaya Sakamoto's (Ciel from Black Butler, Haruhi from OHSHC). I'd say, Danji's voice in my head is closer to Shinji's.

Gab Her voice should be high-pitched. Rie Kugumiya (do I even need to) maybe? Definitely not her Al voice, but closer to her Kagura Gintama five years later voice. steal one of the brothers' look, steal the other's voice :D

Left She probably should have the deepest voice compared to the rest of the female cast. I'd probably choose someone like Romi Paku (but not her Ed Elric voice; her Kill la Kill's Ragyou Kiryuuin or Black Butler's Madam Red voice. Or something in between; god, this woman's vocal range...).

I also thought about Shouko Tsuda (Izumi from FMA and FMAB; Martha from Spy x Family), but couldn't find a video.

Right Someone like Rikiya Koyama (Lum's father from Urusei Yatsura 2022, Neptune Shoukaku from Gintama (beware of spoilers in this example). He should sound like one of these two characters, not like, for example, Fukuzawa BSD <- unbelievable that these three have the same seiyuu).

Dera Sugita Tomokazu. Is it because he voiced Gintoki, another morally dubious badass fighter guy who sees a kid, asks "who's gonna adopt them" and doesn't wait for an answer, and then goes to spend all of his money on gambling? Maybe. Oh, he's also voiced Kyon from Haruhi Suzumiya and Joseph Joestar. (god, his voice is too recognizable)

Hana Satsuki Yukino (FMAB!Rosé, Tae from Gintama, Kagome from InuYasha). Yes, it's because of Tae. Both Tae and Hana are 1) pretty (and) dangerous, and 2) the best girls of their respective manga. Also, her voice just fits. Another option would be Marina Inoue (TTGL's Yoko Littner, Gintama's Ikeda Asaemon, SZS's Kitsu Chiri <- another best girl, what an unbelievable coincidence)

Jin His voice should be deep, that's what I'm certain of. He also should sound like he's permanently very, very, very tired of everything. I think of someone like Hosoya Yoshimasa (Kunikida BSD, Reiner AOT). The videoo with examples does not provide any example of tiredness, but does provide an example of a deep voice.

[beaniesweets]

What is everybody enjoying right now? Current read/watch lists under the cut!

Reading

The Apothecary Diaries: I'm current on this, but the updates are so slow (ಥ_ಥ) I plan on collecting it in print at some point because I need a hard copy of 🐸

Oni no Hanayome wa Taberaretai: I binged this one, and I'm not sure when it will update again (´；д；`) It's SO cute - I'm a big fan of human/yokai series, and I love when spouses are crazy for each other ♡

Loving Yamada at Lv999: The anime was so cute and I've been feeling nostalgic for it, so I binged this, too! I'm just past where the anime ends... ( ͡º ��� ͡º)

I'm also slowly crawling through Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun because I'm only buying it in print (I'm so excited for After School and S2!!!). I hope to finally start Skip and Loafer at some point. I do have a few other titles on my coffee table, but they're all first volumes.

Watching (current as of Aug 7)

Senpai is an Otokonoko: This series stresses me out. I keep waiting for terrible things to happen to those sweet kids! I hope it wraps well because, so far, there is some really wonderful queer rep.

Pseudo Harem: I thought I would hate this based on the title, but it's nothing like I expected - it's actually SUPER cute and just really fun. Saori Hayami and Nobuhiko Okamoto do an awesome job and have great chemistry for comedy.

The Elusive Samurai: There's nothing I don't like about this show - it's so flashy and fun, and the voice acting is all top-notch. If you're on the fence about trying it, watch the ending theme!

The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to Be Archenemies: The loli-coded fanservice makes me uncomfortable, but the lieutenant's reactions are so good. I actually really like the magical girl's transformation and character design, too. I cannot handle (positive) Shinichiro Miki as the scuzzy familiar ₍^. ̫.^₎

Yatagarasu: THIS SERIES IS LIKE A TELENOVELA AND I LOVE IT but also the worldbuilding is *chef kiss*

[robins-den]

hi hellow i've been planning this post for two months anniversary today so

HERE ARE MY OPINIONS ON THE RELEASED CHARACTERS OF ENGAGE but i might not do all of them and this is only their blurb and physical appearance unless i know more ty

Something I’ve noticed while doing this is the sheer amount of siblings there are?? Is there going to be a plot reason (I hope not honestly) or did a writer go ‘wait, it was pretty rare for royals to only have one kid because of the high chances of childhood death and stuff’ or did a twincest writer win the kink lottery or ? Why are there so many siblings… It makes me wonder if the Alear you don’t pick is going to be evil or something.

Why are there so many mount users in the desert? Can horses traverse sand now?? I always hated that mechanic but it was because it made you work around it. Except that you never had enough fliers or mages to actually work around it. Why are there wolves in the desert?

everything taken from serenes forest because its convenient godbless

image and text formatting is to make it not godawful on mobile

CHARACTERS IN THIS: Firene / Firenese characters, the three dragon guardians + Anna

Céline (VA: Akari Kitō) is the first princess of the Firenese Kingdom and Alfred’s younger sister. She’s a kind and innocent philanthropist who always strives to solve things peacefully. However, she won’t hesitate to fight for peace if necessary.

I hate the weird lace stuff and the fact that she just ... does not have a shirt. She looks too young for that to be interesting instead of 'girl what the fuck' and the sheer lace texture would be a genuine nightmare. she's another 'kind and innocent younger sister princess' which like, i feel like we've had at least one in every game, but whatever, the people like what they like.

Alfred (VA: Ryōhei Kimura) is the first prince of the Firenese Kingdom, a brisk young man who battles alongside the Divine Dragon. He’s a kind, disciplined and flower-loving pursuer of happiness.

I like that he has lace as well, it ties him and his sister together. I like his little leafy crown and that he has a love of flowers strong enough to be mentioned in his mini blurb. I don’t like that he’s Dimitri’s little brother, basically. Having one of the first companions look so similar to a protagonist from the last mainline game feels annoying. Also, the yellow white clothes, pale skin, blond hair, and black lines of lace make him look like a bee to me.

Chloé (VA: Saori Hayami) is a palace knight from the Kingdom of Firene. She’s easy-going and adores her liege, Princess Céline. Loves fairy tales and pretty scenery and is always seeking a picturesque combination of the two.

i dont like the boobed breastily down the stairs vibe of her armor (which really isn't armor) but if she's one of the few like it then i can accept it as a character trait. i don't like the armor period, though, it has a lackluster feel to it. I'm really hoping for an s rank between her and Celine. Chloe likes Fairy Tail Aesthetic because she likes Celine, who has a Fairy Tail Aesthetic. This is my most beloved and sapphic headcanon.

Etie (VA: Tomomi Mineuchi) is a palace knight from the Kingdom of Firene. She’s a noble lady who exudes elegance. Has a positive and active personality; devotes all her time to body-building

I like her facial expression, and I think her hair is cute without being overbearing. I like that she's stated to be noble and extremely elegant while also doing bodybuilding. I like how it's a 'yes and,', not an 'even though'. I don’t like that what I thought was a dress is a crop top, though. I think it’s better as a dress.

Louis (VA: Haruki Ishiya) is a palace knight from the Kingdom of Firene. He’s a gentle servant wearing massive armour. He always pays attention to how his friends are faring and seems happy whenever he sees them at peace.

Hello Kellam with curly hair. His arms remind me of Ruin Guards from genshin impact, actually. I don’t like armor knights much (i really value mobility and the sheer defense of armor knights has never been necessary for me to beat maps, even in the GBA games), but maybe his personality will convince me to use or reclass him. From what I’ve seen, I doubt it. I like the pointer clicker on his armor.

Boucheron (VA: Toru Sakurai) is a palace knight from the Kingdom of Firene. He’s a polite and kind young man. Born with a good physique and highly tolerant of others.

Logically the green accents on orange shirt is fucking hideous, but they manage to make it work with his armor, which keeps the orange from being extremely loud and the green from looking horrendous. He’s not that striking physically but for some reason I want to sit on his stomach and stare at his face for an hour. Also touch his face ??? I like that his tolerance of others is important enough to be mentioned here; I hope he has supports with people from other nations and when they do something not commonly done in his nation he’s like ‘oh, that’s pretty neat’ or the like. Maybe they did western market research and he’ll be a himbo lol.

Framme (Sayaka Senbongi) is a 33rd generation Dragon Guardian, protecting the Divine Dragon at the Land of Lythos. She’s Cramme’s younger twin sister and more determined and lively compared to her brother.

I like her shirt and gloves. I think they're fun. her hat nd scarf don't feel battlefieldy but y'know what, sure, go styling. Honestly I think she looks really cute with the soft bob cut so I wish she didn’t have that braid of hair(?), but the ribbon braided in makes it interesting. I like lively kid characters as long as they aren’t annoying about it, and twins / siblings can be fun if the writers aren’t annoying about it. The contrast between simple sleeveless shirt+skinny arms, and the huge thick gloves, scarf and hat gives her an energy that I really love. All the colors pair together extremely well.

Cramme (Kōhei Amasaki) is a 33rd generation Dragon Guardian, protecting the Divine Dragon at the Land of Lythos, alongside Vander. He is Framme’s older twin brother and was by Alear’s side when they awoke. A gentle priest who serves–and is also a fan of–Alear.

The fact that he’s outright a fan is…. Odd? I’m not going to say bad but we’ll have to wait and see. I love his braid and that it pairs with his sisters. I think his colors pair together less well than his sisters do, but I’m always a slut for arm cuffs. I like that he’s green, black, and beige to his sister’s white, pink, and beige. It’s a fun way to contrast and compare them. I wish the outfits themselves matched a bit more.

Vander (VA Yōji Ueda) is a 32nd generation “Dragon Guardian”, protectors of the Divine Dragon at the Land of Lythos. Cared for Alear who was asleep for ages and a reliable ally who’s sworn loyalty to Alear. Very serious and strict; the guardians’ mission is at the forefront of his mind.

Our jagen!! I really like his beard and hair. How many families got conscripted into staring at my bedroom? I wonder if the care was anything more intensive than standing guard at the doors of wherever it was and running off bandits and treasure hoarders. I’m curious if they entered the building on a daily basis [ for cleaning and making sure everything is okay, or maybe they live there? ], only on special occasions [ deep cleaning every few months or year or for festivals ] or fuckin never and only patrolled the perimeter. We’ll get the answer I’m sure, but I’m curious regardless. Relatedly, I’m curious if there were any signs of Alear waking up? If they knew it was beginning to happen or if it was completely out of the blue. 30 generations of your family getting paid to do nothing, and now you have to fight a cross continental war for the planet or some shit. 

Anna (VA: Saori Seto) is a merchant-in-training. It seems she’s traveling around each country, in search of treasures that can be sold for a high price.

She’s a lot cuter than her FE3H incarnation, thats for sure. It’s probably the posing but she’s actually super cute. Nice outfit that is visually solid without being overly complex and puff sleeves. I dig it. I’m interested to find out what merchant means as a class. We likely aren’t getting a separate convoy again, but (bold take) I actually found it fun. In training is fun; I wonder if we’ll see the endless amount of Anna’s again. I hope so. I hope she has supports again, and it’ll be great if it’s with people other than Alear. It’s interesting that her job / class is first and her name is below it, unlike all of the other character cards.

Ayaka: A Story of Bonds and Wounds Episode 1 Review: From The Creator Of K

Alright, we’re at the start of Summer anime. Here’s the first of the three I’ll be reviewing for this season. Ayaka: A Story of Bonds and Wounds has a slow start. It’s an introductory episode that tries to introduce the characters and what the plot is going to be about.

From what I’ve deduced from the first episode, it’s going to be a mix of supernatural and mystery. Our main characters will be fighting these Ara-Mitamas and then a bigger plot will happen. That’s definitely what’s going to happen. This is a GoRa anime. If you’re familiar with K, it's a little different from K as it has less characters and maybe a more concise plot?

The story is about Yukito Yanagi who graduates middle school and is moving back to Ayaka Island, an archipelago of seven islands and where he was originally from. He doesn’t remember much since he left the island at five years old. Yukito has unusual supernatural powers that manifest when his emotions are unstable. Because he had hurt someone in the past, he decided to maintain a distant demeanor just so he doesn’t get too emotional. Yukito seems like the typical gloomy MC, but I do like what I see from him right now. All I want to know is whether or not he’s adopted and what his true origins are; I think the plot will get there. From what I’ve seen, he’s going to train to be a Ley Master as it is the focus of the show.

Unfortunately, he meets a green-coded man named Jingi Sagawa who was tasked to take him back to Ayaka Islands. He’s a menace and I hate his guts. First off, this man waits for Yukito in front of his middle school piss-ass drunk and then he has the AUDACITY to push him off a bridge. Once Yukito’s powers activate because he got riled up, Jingi then shoves him in his magic bag and then once he comes to, he’s on a boat to an island. I’m surprised Yukito can maintain his composure because I’d be on the verge of murdering this man if he ever those stunts on me. When they’re on the island, Jingi continues to be annoying as he shows off his skills to kill the Ara-Mitama, turns out that it’s still alive, so he proceeds to THROW Yukito into the monster just to get him emotional in order to defeat the monster. He deserved that drop-kick. I don’t care if he was trying to help Yukito; he’s mean and annoying. It’s supposed to be considered funny, but it’s not. I hate Jingi already.

The only other characters prominently introduced are Momoko, the landlord of Yukito’s father’s property, and Inou, the mayor and Yukito’s legal guardian. Momoko’s so cute. I love her design. She also needs to beat the snot out of Jingi on-screen because he deserves it. I want to see more of her. Inou seems like a nice man too. I need to see more of the other character to give a full opinion. The Mitamas are cute.

The animation isn’t anything too special, but it’s pretty. This is a GoRa anime, after all. Look how pretty K was. The scene where the rural nature of the island was shown was very gorgeous. I think GoRa has improved with the animation quality. If GoRa does things right, maybe this can be as big of a hit as K was.

I think what draws me to this anime the most is the mystery. Why does Yukito need to return to the Ayaka Islands? What’s the secret of his birth? Why was he escaping the island with young Jingi at the time? What are these Mitama and Ara-Mitamas? The fact that I see so many questions makes me want to continue watching them to see how they will be answered.

The opening is sung by Angela, who sung the opening for K. Check out her song for K, Kings. It’s super good. 

The voice acting is good. All I know about Yuto Uemura is that he voiced my favorite Luminaria character Lucien, but he does have a good grasp of sounding young. Takuma Terashima voices Jingi. I do like how well he changes from flippant to serious when the scene calls for it; that doesn’t make me hate Jingi any less. Momoko is voiced by Saori Hayami. I mean, it’s Hayamin; her voice is distinct. However, I do wonder what sort of role she’ll play. You can’t just hire Hayamin and not have to voice someone minor. Nobuo Tobita voices Mayor Inou and I’m surprised he was voicing him; I didn’t recognize his voice. Oh and Yukito's father is voiced by Kenjiro Tsuda, who makes a return from K (he voiced Mikoshiba in K).

All in all, I’m curious to see where this anime will head off since this is a GoRa work. I do have some expectations as I enjoyed K. I’ll be tuning in every Saturday for this show!

It is only today that I discovered that I can listen to old voicelines that happened in archon quest. I have every version of the voice in genshin, and in my Main, I always use chinese ver because it futs the aesthetic. Which means I've always heard Xiao in chinese. Oh gosh please bless his CVA. He just sounds so AAAUUGHHH <3. So today, I go through the archive, with JP Ver. AND OH MY HOSH DID HE SOUND SO FAMILIAR IN JP. I was like, Sora? Ichijou Masaki? Kirito? Literally the first people that I thought of. I hope I'm not wrong XD. Imma search his JPVA in a sec.

Edit: I CHECKED IT. I WAS NOT WRONG MUAHAHAHAH. The JPVA for Xiao really is the same person that voiced Kirito.

ALSO, KAEYA? SAME VA AS KIBA? LOL NOW THAT IM INFORMED I WILL KEEP SEEING KIBA WHEN HE SPEAK HAHAH.

DILUC?!?!?! MY MAN HAS THE SAME VA AS MIKAELA OMGOMGOMG. AAAAAAAH

I already know that Venti is voiced by Ayumu because of that one song Ayumu sang I downloaded with Venti in the cover. Goodness, Ayumu's voice acting really is so amazing.

BUT KLEE! I am very shocked with her VA. She's the one who voice Hawk-chan SHXBSUSGSJSBAJB noooooo. Now whenever I see Klee I'll get reminded of Hawk lol.

I've never had Chongyun but always wanted him and now, PLEASE COME HOME. PLEASE THE WAY I SCREAMED when I found out that he has same jp va as William. Im dead. My voice is dead.

Zhongli is Hak. Actually, I think I prefer his Eng and CN ver better. He sound like an adolescent with his JP ngl.

Ayaya, already knew. Saori Hayami. Her voice is unique I just recognize her voice in characters she plays that I encounter. Like first meeting with her, oh this girl sound like Sapri Hayami. I love a lot of characters voiced by her.

Kazuha. Soma Yuki. ... Im dead. This only streghtened my resolve to save primos and fates for his rerun now. I am gettin you no matter what.

Ayato...I really like him and his character. Even his story quest which may seem like boring to others, I loved. (Man I love scheming characters too much—) His va also voiced Zeref! Ah, yes, Zeref.

Cyno, Sugawara and Yuuichirou. I definitely didn't recognize his voice. Goodness how are these JPVA so talented.

Natsu and Wanderer. Omy,,, NOW I SEE NATSU BEING A FLIRT AND WANDERER BEING A MUSCLE HEAD LOL HAHAHAHA

Alhaitham... President Horikita... .... .... .... ... this is why he's so hot.

Guys... Kaveh... Kyo... Megumi... I—

Wait, Teppei and Heizou has the same JPVA?

Il Dottore...Muzan...

AnS Vol 19 Drama CD: "Colorful Stories" Translation

I've always wanted to know what Hisame's voice sounded like, so I'm super thrilled he appears in some AnS Drama CD tracks. There's a track in the Volume 19 Drama CD which features Hisame having dinner with Shirayuki and Obi and sharing stories about Mitsuhide, Zen, and Kiki. This doesn't have an English translation, so I made one myself. The scene is set somewhere between Ch 88 and 89.

Follow along and read the translation under the cut!

Vol 19 Drama CD: Colorful Stories

Hisame: Sakurai Takahiro Obi: Okamoto Nobuhiko Shirayuki: Hayami Saori Kiki: Nazuka Kaori Mitsuhide: Umehara Yuuichirou Zen: Oosaka Ryouta

Listen to audio here

Hisame’s VA says the title of the Drama CD track: Colorful stories.

Obi: Sorry to keep you waiting, young miss. Shirayuki: Good work today, Obi! Obi: Are you alone? Where’s Higata-san? Shirayuki: Looks like he left early today because he wasn’t around when I left. Obi: I see, well, let's go to the dining hall, it's not crowded now, is it? Shirayuki: Yeah, it’s still early. ??: Young miss. Shirayuki: Did you call me,  Obi? Obi: No that wasn’t me just now. From behind us? Obi and Shirayuki: Oh! Hisame: Hey. Remember me? It’s been a while, but we met at a soirée. Shirayuki: Vice Captain of the Sereg Knights! Hisame: Yes, I’m the Vice-Captain. Shirayuki: Hisame-san, right? Thank you for your help last time. Hisame: Not at all. I’m happy to see you again. *Shirayuki makes flustered noise* Hisame: Obi-dono, you were with the young miss too, were you? Obi: It’s almost time for us to return to Lilias soon though. Hisame: We’re also going to head back to Sereg soon. Have his Highness and Kiki-dono started their time off yet? Obi: Not until tomorrow, I think. Hisame: Well then, Obi-dono and the young miss. May I join you? Shirayuki and Obi: Eh? Hisame: For dinner, that is.

--

*door opens* Kiki: Zen, I just received a message from Obi. Zen: From Obi? Didn’t he go to dinner? Kiki: Well, he went all right. Zen: What’s going on? What’s with your troubled tone? Don’t tell me he’s joking about tonight’s menu being my favorite dish or something. Kiki: Well, if that’s the case, I won’t tell you. Do you want to know, Mitsuhide? Mitsuhide: Eh? Why me? Zen: I would just forget it if I were you. Mitsuhide: I think you’re right. Kiki: I’m having dinner with the young miss and the Vice-Captain, is what he said. Zen and Mitsuhide: What?! Mitsuhide: Which Vice-Captain? From the Sereg Knights? Kiki: That’s right, it’s who you’re thinking of. Zen: Hisame-dono, Shirayuki, and Obi are having dinner together? Kiki: Yeah. Zen: Why? Kiki: I don’t know. Zen: Is there more to the message? Kiki: That’s it. Zen: That Obi…! Mitsuhide: Wait. This is bad. Shirayuki isn’t a problem. But putting Obi, who likes to ask unnecessary questions just for fun, together with Hisame-dono who likes to talk about unnecessary things just for fun… Zen: Maybe we should rescue Shirayuki. Kiki: I’m sure Shirayuki can handle Obi if she needs to. We can ask her later what stories were shared. Mitsuhide: It’ll be a crisis by then. Kiki: I’ve established a good relationship with Hisame-dono so it’s not a problem for me. Mitsuhide: Huh? Zen: Ah, is that how it is? I’m okay too then. Kiki: I’m not particularly bothered with them talking about me in the first place. Mitsuhide: Then, do you mean…? Zen: I don’t know why but Mitsuhide has had the most dealings with Hisame. So, there’s a lot more tales to recount. Mitsuhide: I’m being abandoned, huh?

---

*sounds of chatter and dining* Hisame: Well then, let’s eat. Obi: Is it okay that we’re eating in the dining hall? Hisame: Yeah. Since I arrived at the royal castle, there hasn’t been a single meal in which I haven’t had to watch myself. Obi: Watch yourself, huh? Hisame: Seems like you know what I’m talking about. Obi: Haha, not at all. Come to think of it, I think you and His Highness talk pretty casually. You’ve known each other for a long time. Hisame: We were halfway through our teens when we were properly introduced. Obi: Is that a concrete time, or an estimate? Shirayuki: When you say “we”, you mean… Hisame: Myself, his Highness Zen, Kiki-dono, and his other close aide. Shirayuki: Close aide…? You mean Mitsuhide-san? Hisame: Yes, his close aide Mitsuhide-san. Obi (to himself): Oooh, I’m getting more and more curious by the minute. About this guy and Mister Mitsuhide’s relationship. Shirayuki (to herself): I wonder if he and Mitsuhide-san are fighting? Hisame: It was a time when Mitsuhide-dono was still not very good at soirees and banquets, hiding in the shadows to avoid becoming a target of curiosity for the ladies. *Obi spits out laughing* Shirayuki: Obi?! Obi: *cracking up* That’s not hard to imagine. I mean, *sobers up* what an interesting story. Hisame: His Highness Zen was still growing at the time. If I show you using this table… from here *moves glass* to here, about that tall, I think. Obi: Ehhhh. Now that would have been nice to see, wouldn’t it, young miss? Shirayuki: Definitely! I was about that tall around that time too, I think. Obi: Oh, then I would like to see that too! Hisame: You have also known each other a while, right? Shirayuki: Yes. But when we met, I was still the same height as I am now. Hisame: I see. Shirayuki: Mitsuhide-san was also part of the Sereg Knights’ Circle, wasn’t he? Obi: Yes, yes, that’s what I heard. Shirayuki: Did it coincide with your time there, Hisame-san? Hisame: No, I joined after Mitsuhide-dono had already left for the castle. Obi: Why the Sereg Knights in particular? Hisame: Interested? Obi: Yes, please! Hisame: Because I didn’t want to lose my ties with them. Shirayuki: Ties? Hisame: I didn’t used to get along with those three. Shirayuki and Obi: Hm? Hisame: After our first meeting, it seemed clear that we wouldn’t get along. I was determined to remember them with bitterness. But then I thought that it wouldn’t be worth holding a grudge if they forgot about me. I was in need for a chance of pace anyway, so I deliberately put myself in a place where they were likely to see me on a regular basis. Obi: Damn~~ Obi (to himself): How serious is this guy being right now? Shirayuki (to herself): Is it even okay for me to listen to this story? Shirayuki: Are you all friends now? Hisame: We are. We still fight a lot. Shirayuki: They say the more you fight, the better you get along. Hisame: That’s right. Do you have someone to fight with too, young miss? Shirayuki: Eh?! I don’t have a fighting partner. If it’s a partner that you fight with, that is. Hisame: That’s fine. Obi: It's true that Mister Mitsuhide came back home in a bad mood when he went to Sereg. I wonder if it’s because he had a fight with Hisame-dono. Hisame: Heh, when was that, I wonder. Was it that time? Some time ago, the room key for Kiki-dono’s usual room at the base had broken and I put Kiki-dono in Mitsuhide-dono’s room- Obi: AHHH! Shirayuki: Ahh! What’s wrong Obi?! Obi: I just thought I definitely don’t need to hear that. Hisame: Is that so? Obi: I wouldn’t know what to say if they learned that I had heard about it. Hisame: I wish it were that interesting of a story. What do you think Mitsuhide-dono did when the two of them were about to sleep in the same room? Obi: *exclaims* Young miss! Your ears, cover your ears! Shirayuki: Huh?! Hisame: *calmly* Your soup is about to flip over, you know. Obi: *takes a deep breath* Anyway, let’s talk about something else for now.

--some time passes--

Shirayuki: Ahh~ I’m so full. Obi: Right? *under his breath* I could barely taste it in the beginning though… Hisame: Well then, I’m off to make plans for the day after tomorrow. Thank you for letting me take up your precious time, Obi-dono, young miss. Shirayuki: Um, Hisame-san. About my- Hisame: Oh, were you perhaps about to tell me your name? Shirayuki: Yes. Hisame: Don’t worry, I know it. I remember from the soiree. I heard Obi-dono call you young miss earlier and I was just imitating him. Shirayuki: Ohh, so that’s how it is. Hisame: I won’t use that nickname again, so you can rest assured, Obi-dono. *Obi laughs a bit forcefully* Hisame: Incidentally, using a person’s name at the end of your time with them appears to be an effective tactic to make them want to see you again. So, feel free to use that tactic whenever you like… Shirayuki-dono. Shirayuki: ?! *makes flustered noise* Hisame: Well then, may we meet again somewhere.

*Hisame walks away*

Obi: *heaves a long sigh* I think I can sort of understand what Mister Mitsuhide has to go through now. Shirayuki: *small sigh* Obi: Hm? Young miss? Shirayuki: *startled noise* Shirayuki: I couldn’t help but watch Hisame-san as he walked away. Obi: Do you want to meet him again? Shirayuki: I think so. But the way he said my name at the end, it was kind of… scary. Obi: I understand.

----

*approaching footsteps* Kiki: Good evening, Hisame-dono. Hisame: Hello, Kiki-dono, Mitsuhide-dono. Kiki: Did you enjoy dinner? Hisame: News reaches you fast. I had fun. We talked about the time I joined the Sereg Knights’ Circle. Mitsuhide: *deep sigh* Hisame: We talked about you too, Mitsuhide-dono. Mitsuhide: Like what? Hisame: Oh, various things. Are there stories that you would rather not share? Mitsuhide: There are always ways to tell them… Hisame: What about that time the room key broke? Mitsuhide: You told them?! Hisame: No? Mitsuhide: Oh, what? Don’t scare me like that then, Hisame-dono. Hisame: Obi-dono and Shirayuki-dono voluntarily covered their ears. Mitsuhide: You tried to tell them, didn’t you? Hisame: I’m happy to hang out with you two if you wish to reminisce about the past. Kiki: Yeah. Mitsuhide and I will also be heading to Sereg the day after tomorrow. Hisame: Us too. Well then, should we depart at nine in the morning that day? Kiki-dono. Mitsuhide-dono. Kiki and Mitsuhide: Understood, Hisame-dono.

[nitia95]

Ufff sorry this so late but!!

9, 10, 17, 18, 25 (of the wh world, not ours), 31, 33, 34, 45, 55 for Katia

6, 14, 15, 18, 23, 26, 27, 43, 46, 49 for Nitia.

I'm so sorry for the wait! I really forgot this and I almost couldn't find the oc ask meme ops xD

Katia:

9) Current residence

10) She had scars, but someone with magic helped her erase them. No piercings. She has a certain mark on the chest, on her heart, that appeared after some drama. I still haven't figured out its shape. Maybe a peach flower?

17) She can't fight, only run xD

18) Does her diary counts? else... I don't know

25) Country

31) I. Can't. Spoiler. It... Not now that I'm planning and writing down her story xD I can say it's something about her end

33) She was all alone and didn't trust people nor opening up with people. After meeting Felix and drama angst, she's more social and doesn't afraid of tomorrows

34) Lots of blankets, pillows, souvenirs from her travels and pictures in frame.

45) I'm still thinking about it, but here are songs that remind me of Katia: “I’m Born to Run” by American Authors, "This is my now" by Jordin Sparks, "I'm like a bird" by Nelly Furtado, "Kalmia" by Mia REGINA, "Twinkle" by Saori Hayami (yeah both from Code:Realize) 33and "Sparks fly" by Taylor Swift.

55) emh...*re-reading the question* core trait? I think it's "living the moment", if this counts. Else is "Being positive". Best trait is that she doesn't force anyone to do anything for her (?). Worst trait is treating her life as nothing worthy.

What happens when these all interact with each other?I don't know, just a mess?

Nitia:

6) a VA? O_O I don't really have one, I can't seem to hear her "voice". Also, it's been so long since I heard any dubbed stuff and I usually don't remember female voices. Nothing strikes me as "Nitia's voice"... any idea?

14) She can cook and bake (these are really important skills to conquire Serge after all u.u)

15) She can sing and dance (she always have a wonderful time singing and dancing with Serge)

18) a lucky charm from her mum

23) Romantic-comedic Fantasy

26) Eating chocolate at night

27) I was thinking she only got a dad and a mom, but I wonder if she could have a sibling. They get along really well

43) I don't follow Pokemon anymore, like since when I was a kid... Is there an artist Pokemon?

46) I can imagine her playing the tambourine, something joyous

49) the main theme is Art, obviously. Joy from drawing, strive for more artistic ways of expressing her feelings. And love gave her a new approach of seeing the world

Thanks for asking!

ROUNDUP: You All REALLY Love SPY x FAMILY, Don't You?

  Waku-waku! Anya may be starving for entertainment, but we are completely and utterly stuffed after the long-awaited arrival of Tatsuya Endo's SPY x FAMILY manga as an anime. With just two episodes under our belt, we've already witnessed an adoption of a telepathic gremlin, a marriage to a competent but bumbling assassin, and an elite spy whose cold heart begins to flicker with warmth, all in the name of world peace — and audiences can't get enough of it.

  So before we get any deeper into Operation Strix, it's time for a mission report on the many incredible ways fans have shown their adoration for SPY x FAMILY's first two episodes and the newly-formed Forger family!

    As if being a spy, an assassin and a telepath wasn't intriguing enough, Loid, Yor and Anya are a charismatic triple threat on their own, each immediately winning over the hearts of many in their own right.

  There was never any doubt that Saori Hayami would get the part as Yor, yet with the addition of the multi-talented Takuya Eguchi as Loid, fans couldn't help but notice how the casting got even more perfect.

  one of the most iconic confession & proposal in anime history and the characters were voiced by takuya eguchi and saori hayami pic.twitter.com/f8T9OVMTi3

  And speaking of voice actors, SPY x FAMILY officially kicked off the Spring 2022 SimulDub season with a spectacular early stream of the first episode on Twitch less than a week after the original premiere in Japan. Now that's swift justice!

  that was fast, i’m excited to watch the spy x family dub !!

— Kat (@KEETTTTTT) April 11, 2022

  the english dub for spy x family is phenomenal so far especially loid's breakup at the start

— girl_dm_ | vtuber | vtuber | vtuber | vais ???? (@Girl_Dm_) April 15, 2022

  A killer anime needs a killer opening theme, and acclaimed director Masashi Ishihama (Horimiya, Attack on Titan OP2) brought his standout style to SPY x FAMILY with an OP that garnered over 1,000,000 views on YouTube in under 24 hours and plenty of praise and analysis on social media.

  Masashi Ishihama's opening for Spy x Family is a neat mix of styles embodying the different sides of the series. Opens up with a hardboiled spy comic style, the type that Anya is a huge fan of, with the color contrast and fast cutting most people have come to know Ishihama for pic.twitter.com/gYLTv3qiw2

— kViN ???????? (@Yuyucow) April 16, 2022

  And finally, that classic, all-too-relatable "why can't the week go faster" pain between episodes that we're all feeling.

  I just started watching SPY x FAMILY and I'm upset because now I have to wait a week for new episodes ????

— Enviosity (@Enviosity) April 18, 2022

  If you're just as impatient as we are, don't miss new episodes of SPY x FAMILY when they drop every Saturday at 8:30 PT on Crunchyroll, and keep letting the world know how much you adore the Forger family!

  What's your favorite part of SPY x FAMILY so far? Let us know in the comments below.

[kadythethief]

it has been quite some time since i've watched an anime not knowing what will happen next, since i usually tend to try to read up on the manga quickly

but my bro rly wants me to watch spyxfamily now

but the anime is rly nice. also i just KNOW Thorn Princess and Loid are both IDIOTS. AND I LOVE IT.

i rly thought this week's episode would go differently and i can't wait for next week's one.

i feel like the child is basically us.

also saori hayami. i love whenever i hear her voice. it's like takehito koyasu's. i'll just watch it as long as i know they are voicing someone. i don't even care if the character literally disappears five minutes after they were introduced looooool (srsly wtf [that one anime i don't wanna name cause spoilers???])

Juju Talk Episode 10 Highlights

Back with highlights for Episode 10 of Juju Talk with Enoki Junya (Itadori’s VA) and Uchida Yuuma (Fushiguro’s VA)! I figured with Yuuma coming back next week for two more episodes (omg just become a co-host please), it’s time I get this out haha. Always a fun time with these two!

Highlights

Yuuma really liked Gojo’s quote about how being a jujutsushi is like competing in an individual sport, he also likened it to how it’s like being a seiyuu and basically being self-employed (lol)

He also mentioned he’s similar to his character in that he’s also the kind of guy who would in situations also “bunt” like Fushiguro did in the baseball game

Another point that Yuuma really relates to Fushiguro is thinking about what they say to people ahead of time and to be careful with his words and not cross-talking or speaking too much, Enojun agrees with him too that it’s hard to figure out how much to talk when on a show or during an interview

Both of them agree that Gojo’s first impression to elementary schooler Fushiguro was that he was…not a good person (LMAO, can’t disagree)

Got confirmation that Tsumiki’s VA is Hayami Saori (yessss, one of my favorites, I can’t wait to hear more of her in the future hopefully!)

Yuuma voices Fushiguro’s domain expansion line, “Chimera Shadow Garden” which you can listen to here!

Both Junya and Yuuma comment about how difficult the kanji is for “Chimera Shadow Garden” to read haha

Yuuma said he was really excited to see how Fushiguro’s domain expansion would be animated, seeing his character launch a killer technique like Kamehameha haha

Junya and Yuuma refer to the Cursed Wombs: Death Painting trio of brothers’ VAs as the strong “Legendary Seiyuu” (like Namikawa Daisuke as Chouso) because they grew up respecting them, some of them were even acting possibly before they were born!

They both joked about how Kechizu’s VA, Yamaguchi Kappei, was quoted in Weekly Shounen Jump saying that he would work hard so that Kechizu could become a plushie to sell as JJK goods haha

Yuuma: “Kechizu’s face is so scary!”

Junya: “We don’t know which mouth he talks out of because he has two!”

Q&A time!

The first question asked the two to reflect back on their school days and when something bad happened, what did they use for motivation to come back from it, the asker was having trouble studying for their final exams

Junya remembered one incident back when he was sitting in the school lobby and a girl got really close to him because she thought he looked like this famous ikemen student but when she saw his face she said loudly so that everybody could hear, “You’re not him!” (OMG)

He said he couldn’t keep his motivation there understandably (lol)

Yuuma tries reassuring him that Junya’s cousin who’s also a VA, Anzai Chika, told him that Junya was the handsomest guy from their family

Junya: “That doesn’t make me happy being praised by my cousin!”

Relating back to Fushiguro, Yuuma said he mostly ran away from anything he didn’t like back in school

Junya’s response? “The most hopeless kind of guy…” (LOL)

Apparently, Yuuma hated P.E. back in the day and hated moving in general (hahaha I see Fushiguro in him here too), making up excuses for skipping class, especially for swimming lessons

On the other hand, he really worked hard for his music classes and his after-school activities in the brass band club

Both Junya and Yuuma conclude that you should do your best for the things you like…but then backtrack when they remember it’s final exams, so they just encourage the asker to work hard now because it will pay off in the future with more JJK to enjoy haha

---

Thanks for reading! I can’t believe Yuuma’s already coming back next week for more new episodes with Junya! In the manga too, it seems Yuuji and Megumi are reunited now on their search for Hakari. It’s a good time to be an Itafushiita fan. :’)

[xdendenx]

Okay so here is the Bio/Description of Cece for those who are interested~ Name: Cecelia Hill Nickname: Cece Gender: Female Age: 18 Birthday: 23rd May Zodiac: Gemini Height: 166cm Blood Typ: 0 Hobby: Astronomy Dominant Hand: Right Likes: Fairytales Dislikes: Secrets +Food: Watermelons -Food: Sushi Special Skill: Surviving with 1 braincell VA: Saori Hayami ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So where do I start- First of all, the name. When she was younger and just learned to speak she couldn’t quiet pronunce her name right, it always started with a ce-ce and ended with gibberish, so that just sticked till today. Like I said before she lived in a small village at the countryside before ending in Twisted Wonderland. Due having her head in the clouds 24/7 this resulted in some accident she’s pretty oblivious to danger like the broken leg, when she jumped out the window thinking she could fly if she believes hard enough. Or the chicken attack where she wanted to try to talk to animals, but she found none, except some chickens across the street, that thought it was feeding time. Her life in a nutshell but she still enjoys it to the fullest. Even now that she’s 18 years old, she still adores fairytales though, waiting for her own happily ever after with a sprinkle of magic. Cece’s main hobby is the Astronomy, that started when she was younger and sneaked out in the night, just to lay down and watch the nightsky. She still loves watching the sky at nighttime and wishes upon every shooting star she sees flying by. One of her bigger character traits is that she’s pretty curious about everything, she needs to know everything and if she does not, she needs to find it out. The problem about having secrets she doesn’t know, she wont stop trying to figure out what it is and bugs the person till she founds out. Not even in a mean way, she just has the feeling she needs to know whats going on. Little Ceceila founds out at a pretty young age that she sucks at lying, so she decided to just tell everybody the truth. Ending with a pretty blunt Cece. She won’t even try to be mean but she just thinks the truth is better than lying, so why should anybody be bothered by that right- So in some conversations it will be just like “You’re really talking alot aren’t you?” “That’s pretty dumb though.” Actually doesn’t has the right to say that due her owning only one braincell too but yeah you get what I mean. You probably won’t ever see her not smile, she gets happy about everything and has the attention span of a hummingbird, and right now everything is new at NRC for her soo =Happy Cece Except mornings though, she will be grumpy when she wakes up. 100%  Morning is just too early for her. She’s pretty caring about everyone she met though, maybe not the best at talk the up if they did something stupid because she would probably just say that it was ineed pretty stupid but she still values it. So yeah that’s it for now. I probably add some stuff from time to time but we’ll see XD
