Himari x Yori - Follow your arrows

[jaydoubler]

RANTS OF SOMEONE BORED

I think it's not too far fetched for Amasawa Hajime—Lorelei's drummer—to be part of the Wind Ensemble which would be funny if she actually is, because Mizuguchi Aki's little sister Miki is also part of that club.

In Chapter 9, Momoka mentions that there are other two girls besides her—both of which never show up. Now here, I thought the other two girls were Amasawa Hajime and Izumi Shiho.

However, in Chapter 18, when Himari and Momoka were talking about preparing for the upcoming Culture Fest, Momoka mentions that she thinks they can't get the club president to show up. This dissolved my theory that both Lorelei's drummer and vocalist were part of the Cooking Club—only one of them could possibly be, since I can't imagine either of them being the club president (lmao, i know, so biased).

Then moments later, Lorelei shows up and meets Himari for the first time. As they finished their business, Hajime says she's "off to club" meaning she's obviously not part of the Cooking Club but another club (which is why I think she's part of Wind Ensemble since Mari also mentioned in Chapter 17 that she was a decorated concert flautist—which would line up with the nature of her club). This leaves Shiho as the potential other ghost member.

As Hajime leaves, Momoka forces asks Shiho to stick around for a few minutes which later reveals she is indeed one of the two members who never show up.

About the Cooking Club's Ghost President

Now while I'm certainly interested in this character, I doubt Takeshima-sensei will have him/her appear any time soon. Maybe the character is actually insignificant and she doesn't even have any plans to give them an appearance and it's just me overthinking everything lmao

About Amasawa Hajime and Mizuguchi Miki (potentially) being in the same club

Just to be clear, I'm not shipping them! (Although I ship Hajime & Momoka, I also feel complicated about that since it seems like Momoka still loves Hajime's dead older sister, Amasawa Kyou—who was also the violinist Shiho couldn't beat).

I just find it interesting and exciting to think that a link connects Aki with a member of Lorelei. In Chapter 37, Shiho declared a resolute will to cut ties with Aki once the Culture Fest was over, believing Lorelei wouldn't lose the bet. Honestly speaking? It would suck if SSGIRLS won just because they are this story's main band.

Which leads me to think: what if SSGIRLS really loses? Aki would need to keep her end of the deal and respect Shiho's wishes. But then, what if they keep crossing paths because Aki's little sister is in the same club as Lorelei's drummer? I want to know how Takeshima-sensei plans to utilize this connection🫣! Who knows, maybe they'll have a hand in helping them stubborn girlfriends reconcile lmao

I adore how Shiho is with her bandmates

Whisper Me A Love Song Episode 10 Review - The Birth Of Laureley

This anime is slowly becoming the Shiho show…and I’m all for it. I don’t know why but Shiho is such an interesting character. She’s complicated, but understandably so. She loves music, but when things don’t go the way she wants it to, she changes a different path. She went from violinist to guitarist all because she loves music.

This episode reveals the birth of Laureley. It turns out that the reason the three members are all connected was because of one girl: Kyou Amasawa. Yes, Shiho’s rival violinist was the key factor in all of this. Why? She died in an accident, leaving behind her rival Shiho, her now ex-girlfriend Momoka and younger sister Hajime. The fact that she has a connection to all three of them shocked me. It feels a little awkward given that I was shipping Hajime and Momoka, but it turns out that Momoka was Kyou’s girlfriend. However, I don’t know what Kyou and Momoka were like as a couple, so I’m still on the HajiMomo ship—also, if you’re a manga reader, do they get together?

Kyou and Shiho’s relationship was complicated, but it was also friendly. Kyou shined brighter than her when it came to being a violinist, so Shiho decided to be a guitarist in order to one-up Kyou, but also hoping to shine bright in her new path. They weren’t friends, only acquaintances, but it was sad to see Shiho’s tension towards Kyou die out once she was gone. She even goes to talk to her at her grave like they were friends. It’s clearly sad to realize what was precious only when it’s gone. Maybe it’s just me overthinking, but had Shiho not been petty over Kyou one-upping her in violin, I feel like they could’ve fallen in love with each other? There’s a lot of romantic tension in their interaction and that it could’ve easily turned into a rival-to-lovers scenario. However, Kyou had a girlfriend and she’s dead and Shiho is in love with Aki.

Speaking of Aki, Himari finally learns why Shiho has beef with her. It turns out that she fell for Aki at first sight like how Himari fell for Yori. It was just Shiho being drawn towards Aki that made her fall hard. Himari also learns why she has beef with her girlfriend. It turns out that she knew Yori was the person Aki was in love with and learning that she’s in love with her caused Shiho to become very upset. It hurts falling for someone who’s in love with another right? With this revelation, I actually like that Himari put two and two together and figured out that Shiho’s in love with Aki and that’s the reason she hates Yori. Himari can be intuitive when necessary! I wonder if she’ll play a part in getting Aki and Shiho to make up and to encourage the latter to confess to the former.

This episode was very engaging to be honest. I was seriously shocked about the connection that they all share with Kyou and all of the backstory. However, there are still little YoriHima scenes and I do wish there will be more in the last two episodes. I miss them. Episodes 11 & 12 are postponed indefinitely, by the way. What are your thoughts on this episode?

In all the movies, I found you - Oikawa Tooru x Reader

for @whisperofwonder

Was it the right person at the wrong time or the wrong person at the wrong time or could it have been the right time but still the wrong person or -

Thinking about it makes your head spin. 

Like having one too many drinks, or spinning too fast on the merry-go-round, or getting up too fast after not drinking enough.

If only you could take your past relationships and send them in for a study, get the results back like you do with your blood samples.

This one had not enough love, this one was too egoistic and this one was entirely your fault.

If only you could look back at it with a smile like your friends do.

"Remember when I dated that guy? I still have the bracelets he made for me. God, I was so cringy back then."

Oikawa never made you a bracelet. And if he had given you one you wouldn't have worn it, never quite sure if he even bought it himself. Too many of his gifts had been gifted to him before.

Chocolates made by his adoring fans, that really cute notebook you thought he got for you until it turned out he stole it from his sister because he had no money left that month, and the pair of earrings a girl had basically thrown at him after he complimented them.

Oikawa Tooru, the living ghost. The only human being able to haunt you and from the other side of the earth too.

Some days you wonder if you ever loved him. Or if it was just comfortable being with him.

Not that it was ever comfortable. Staying behind after class to walk home with him, pretending not to notice when all the girls fawn over him, getting roped into helping Iwaizumi when Tooru overdid it with training again.

Tooru.

How you hate that name.

It's one thing thinking about him by last name. Like he's just a guy from class you used to have a crush on.

The way you call Semi Semi and not Eita, even though you kissed in the girl's bathroom while everyone else was still sitting through the English exam. Because he's just a guy from College you'd rather forget, a guy you flirted with because he seemed the exact opposite of Tooru.

Only to turn out a setter who'd been left in the dust by his more talented junior. Maybe it's just you who's cursed to find those guys.

-

Go on a Blind Date, they said. It will be fun, they said.

Now you're sitting across from no one other than Iwaizumi Hajime, 28, athletic trainer, who's hiding his red face behind the menu.

"I didn't know it would be you," you tell him instead of choosing a wine because, of course, Iwaizumi would pick a fancy ass restaurant for a Blind Date.

"Sure, yeah, no..." He grumbles into his non-existent beard. "I should have... I should have asked."

"I'm sure your friends would have understood," you joke without humor. "Not that it's easy to find a girl in Japan that hasn't dated Oikawa yet."

Iwaizumi lowers his menu and you regret your words.

If anyone can read you like an open book, it's Hajime. Iwa-chan. Iwaizumi-kun.

Your mind transports you back to your first year at Seijoh and you're so glad it doesn't take you to graduation day for once, you let it happen.

-

"Who do you think is cute, Iwa-chan?" Oikawa asks, his voice much too loud for lunch break. You can hear him all the way to where you're sitting. But you don't hear Iwaizumi's answer though you desperately wish for it.

He's cute. Quieter than his friend, though he gets angry easily. Yesterday he helped you carry books all the way to the teacher's lounge, not once breaking a sweat, his face red as he tried not to look at you.

If you could wish for something, you'd wish for him to like you.

Because Oikawa would only like you if you were popular or pretty or really cool and you don't think you're any of these things. But Iwaizumi reminds you of your favorite Ghibli films, of Kanta Ōgaki in "My Neighbour Totoro" or Seiji Amasawa in "Whispers of the Heart".

But Iwaizumi doesn't say who he thinks is cute. Instead, Oikawa calls your name, much too loud for the quiet room.

"I think she's cute," Oikawa says and you can feel eyes on you, wondering if anyone knows that you don't actually listen to music with those big headphones on. "I like girls with pigtails."

-

"Do you miss him?" Iwaizumi asks over forgotten menus and expensive tablecloths.

"Do you?" You ask back, never one to answer a question directly.

"Sometimes," he admits. "Mostly when I forget how annoying he could get."

You laugh, surprising yourself. "Yeah," you agree. He's like..." You try to think of a character you could compare him with but come up empty. "Maybe the Witch of the Waste?"

Iwaizumi laughs. "I don't think he'd like that comparison."

"Maybe not," you shrug. "But he deserves it for sure."

“I always thought he was more like Howl,” Iwaizumi admits. “He’s cocky and arrogant and everything else, but he cares, you know.”

You stare at him for a moment, left speechless. 

“Well,” you finally clear your throat. “He can be Howl if he wants to. I was just never his Sophie.”

-

Iwaizumi, ever the Gentleman, walks you all the way to your apartment.

“You know,” he admits against the cold of the night. “I used to think Oikawa only flirted with you because he thought I liked you.”

You snort. “That sounds like him.”

“It doesn’t,” Iwaizumi shakes his head. “He’s very loyal. He just hasn’t yet figured out how to love two things at the same time.”

“Volleyball and other people?” “Volleyball and you.”

His words cut your skin like a hot knife through butter and you wonder if he can see it, can see you bleeding out next to him on the sidewalk.

“It’s been ten years,” you tell him with a voice like sandpaper. “I think we’re both over this.”

“And yet you’re not.”

“You’re being mean, Iwaizumi.”

“You’re being a liar.”

You stare up at the streetlight above you and wish it to be a shooting star.

“What do you want me to do?”

“Believe?” He asks, like he’s not so sure himself. “Look, I’m not a Ghibli Mastermind like you, but maybe, just maybe, Oikawa needs help finding his heart too?”

You snort. “Oh, so you want me to feed him his fire heart and hope for the best? This is real life, Iwaizumi, not a fairy tale!”

“One more chance,” he disagrees, holding up his phone. “How about we post a picture?”

And though it can only mean heartbreak, you agree.

Maybe if you hurt him a little, you’ll hurt less.

- - -

The picture is a little bit blurry and not at all flattering and there’s not even a caption to begin with.

Tooru stares at it during breakfast, counts the rising number of likes, and waits for yours.

Did Iwa-chan not recognize you? Could he really, after all that time spent together?

Or is it not you and he’s hallucinating, seeing your face where it isn’t like in those first weeks after moving and after every single game.

“Find me in the future,” Sophie asks Howl and he wonders if you asked him that too, with your eyes instead of your lips, with your dreams instead of your words, when he left Japan for good.

But Tooru’s never dared to do it. Only in his dreams, only in the faces of other people, in the touch of women who aren’t you.

-

It’s midnight in Japan and midday in Argentina and he’s still not closer to any solution.

It must be you, Tooru’s sure of it, but who are you now?

Are you still the girl who sat on the edge of his bed, watching him as he watched Volleyball Matches, the quietest supporter he’s ever had?

Are you still a lexicon of Ghibli Movies, a mind that never tires to compare, to give birth to new stories?

Are you still in love with him like you used to be?

Were you even in love with him when he thought you were?

-

Tooru’s only ever dreamed of making it big, of playing Volleyball, of proving himself. 

At least until you slid your hand into his on the way home after training, rested your head on his shoulder as “Whispers of the Heart” played on his tiny Laptop Screen, as you kissed his cheek in the morning, waiting for the bus.

You’d opened a door in his heart without him knowing, a window to a world he’d never thought about.

One where he works a nine-to-five, takes the trash out before going to work, does the dishes while you cook. A life that looks so much like his parents it scares him a little, because what if he wanted that? What if he did that? What if he just gave up the first dream he ever thought about achieving?

Would you still love him if he was mundane?

-

There are no more pictures of you in Iwaizumi’s feed. 

No one with your name liked the post.

But after two weeks of stalking, he finds some guy called Akaashi whose girlfriend posts every single day, and there, sitting right next to someone he could care less about, are you.

Your hair color is different and you’re older than he ever knew you, but he can still find a home in your eyes, see memories reflected in your smile.

Tooru thinks of Sophie and Howl, of Seiji Amasawa and Shizuku Tsukishima, of all the stories you made him watch with your head on his shoulder and your hand in his.

It’s easy now to find your profile, but hard to watch the years pass by in nothing more than pictures. 

What he missed by leaving. 

And what did he gain but a feeling of homesickness?  A longing, not for a place, but a person.

-

Tooru carries you around for two more weeks, the thought of you, the memory.

He writes message after message only to delete them instead of sending them out, never once proud or sure about what he wants to say.

Because what right does he have to want you back?

What does he have to offer but a longing heart on the other side of the world?

He watches every Ghibli Movie he knows, hoping for inspiration to strike, a quote to fall into his lap.

He laments to Iwa-chan about it after he successfully figures out that you are not, in fact, dating.

“It’s not about the words, idiot!” Iwaizumi scolds him over the phone. “It’s about the effort. It’s always the same with you!”

“What’s that supposed to mean?”

“Oh, like you don’t remember trading autographs for bracelets because you did not want her to have some subpar present from you.”

“Excuse me, that was a great idea!”

“No, it wasn’t, dipshit! It just made you look like you didn’t give a crap.”

“But I did!”

“Well, how would she know?”

- - -

“I miss you.” 

Three words and not a single, damned emoji.

You stare at them for an hour and then some more, bite your lips bloody as you consider them.

Oikawa Tooru, Tooru-kun, the first and only guy you unironically called Darling…

Is that the chance Iwaizumi asked for? 

You could just not write back. 

You could just ignore him.

But you’re tired of being haunted and tired of being hurt and tired of loving someone years after he broke up.

You’re tired of lying to yourself too.

“I miss you too.”

Whisper Me A Love Song Episode 9 Review - Band Drama Intensifies

Whisper Me A Love Song is back after a delay and there’s even more drama now. To be honest, the delay actually benefitted a lot because the animation actually looks a lot nicer. Though, to be fair, there’s still little issues like the typical powerpoint slides and still shots, but no one looks derpy and Mari isn’t disappearing whenever she’s playing her drums now. That’s a good thing!

Like I said, there’s a lot of drama but I don’t really know whose fault this is. It could be Himari’s who stuck her nose into Shiho’s business and tried to make her reconcile with Aki, but it could also be Shiho’s fault for dragging Himari into the mess as she finds out Himari and Yori are dating. I’d say that it’s both of their faults. Himari’s at fault for being an airhead and not realizing that they’re at bad terms. It’s also Shiho’s fault for being too stubborn on telling Aki why she quit SSGirls and only decided to compete when she learned Himari is Yori’s girlfriend. I think it’s super obvious that Shiho’s issues are from that she’s the extremely jealous type but she won’t ever admit that. Also, Himari, why you didn’t invite Miki to the taste-testing?

Drama aside, it’s nice to see that the rival bands are getting heated up for the culture festival competition. SSGirls are thinking about making a new song for the event and Laureley wants to go pro. Like, they’re all motivated to compete and that is a good thing because you have competition—someone to defeat. It makes you want to bring your A-game. Heck, even Himari is doing a rather good job of being Laureley’s manager. This could be a good working experience for her.

Aside from that, there’s more to Laureley in this episode. It seems that Shiho was only acquainted with Hajime and Momoka a year ago while Momoka and Hajime knew each other longer. Given that there’s an important day coming up and Hajime and Momoka look somber, I can deduce that there used to be a previous band member in Laureley and they’re dead. Either she was a fourth member or she was the member before Shiho joined. Whatever she may be, I know that member is female and she’s dead. There are way too many Given parallels here and I feel bad for making so many comparisons…

I’m surprised that they kept Meritocracy as the ending song for this episode. Though, they should keep doing so. It’s an amazing song! The official singer, Sui Mizukami, even uploaded a music video of the full version on her official Youtube Channel! I think Episode 10 will air next week? I don’t know.

The first episode premiered on April 13, and new episodes are simulcast every Saturday at 12:30 PM EST.

Whisper Me a Love Song follows first-year high school student Himari Kino, who, at a welcome ceremony, witnesses Yori Asanagi singing and instantly falls in “love.” She immediately confesses her admiration to Yori, who misinterprets Himari’s feelings as romantic. However, once she realizes her mistake, Yori swears that she will make Himari fall for her for real. The anime will run for 12 episodes, according to HIDIVE.

The anime is based on the manga of the same name by Eku Takeshima. The manga began serialization in Comic Yuri Hime in February 2019. As of March 2024, Ichjinsha has published nine collected volumes of the series in Japanese, and Kodansha USA has published eight in English.

The anime, which was delayed from its initially announced January premiere, is directed by Akira Mano at Cloud Hearts and Yokohama Animation Laboratory. Mano replaced the initially announced director, Xin Ya Cai, due to “health reasons.” Additional staff includes character designer Minami Yoshida and script supervisor Hiroki Uchida join Mano.
