IM SO SORRY IKEEP ACCIDNENTANLY UNFOLLOWIGN U BC THE ASK BUTTON IS NEXT TO IT 😭😭😭 i love ur content so MUCH i would NEVER unfollow on purpose omgg 😭

also anyways imjust wonderign , have u ever thought abt what would happen if yumenosaki didnt exisr inthe first place ???? like. what if they all jsut go live normal lives. or maybe if any of the major events in tthe storyline never happened. cause youre so amazing at analyzing stuff so id realllyyyyy like 2 hear ur thoughts <333 THAMKYOU!!!!! have a nice day :DD

OHH LOL OK i was like hey didnt this person follow me the other day? ive done that before too

i have thought abt that!!! i think some of them would still end up being idol adjacent? also a lot of characters grew up in the same area so they might end up going to the same school or smth anyways so theyd still know each other.

wataru is a stage/movie actor and eichi buys vip seats to all his shows until he notices him . kanata and kaoru are both marine biologists. madara is still exiled and starts traveling doing god knows what, but comes home to japan sooner than he wouldve if eichi didnt stall him during the war. in japan he continues to do god knows what. odd jobs and the like. chiaki and kanata still meet and kanata is saved from the cult. chiaki might go on to become a professional basketball player? izumi and makoto dont have a falling out bc the war never caused leo to break down, so izumi doesnt get paranoid for makotos safety. both of them along with arashi are models and leo is still a composer. arashi would also be a divorce attorney purely on the basis that i think she would be really good at it. rei retains most of his 2nd yr personality and simply mellows out a little instead of acting like an old man, and his friendship with keito wouldnt fall apart. keito is a mangaka and a teacher. hes trying to keep those identities separate but who knows how long thatll last. koga and rei still form deadmanz but keito wouldnt join. instead theyd be a duo unit until koga invites adonis to join, and this time adonis actually gets the chance to since deadmanz wont disband before koga can invite him. kaoru might join later, but its more of a hobby and his primary goal is still taking over and carrying on his mothers research. he works at kanatas aquarium. adonis is a park ranger. i think souma would be a teacher. either biology or a weapons class, or both. kuro and shu are both fashion designers but kuro would specialize in costumes and shu would do mostly high fashion lines for runways. kuro also does wrestling, he intended for it to be just a hobby but he ended up being a fan favorite so now hes better known for that than he is for his costume work. mika is shus apprentice still. hiyori is dawdling and unsure of what he wants to do, but in the meantime hes busying himself with making youtube videos (think jenna marbles). he still meets jun in school. jun is a streamer but he also has a fitness blog and works part time as a personal trainer. pretty average life but with the added bonus that he lives with hiyori, so he doesnt have to worry about money as much. nagisa is a geologist and historian. he works at a museum, thats about it. he still stayed with hiyori until he was adopted by his current family. ibara is the ceo of some company. yuzuru is toris butler still and tori is learning what he needs to do as his family's heir. tsukasa is doing the same. yuzuru and ibara dont meet again after ibara leaves the military facility. ritsu is a professional pianist, hes known for theming his performances around his vampire thing and playing creepy organ music, except on a piano. mao is a freelance photographer and a tutor. makoto continues to be a model, but also does gamedev and photography on the side. he also streams with jun and natsume and has a radio show with the rest of trickstar. anzu would still get transferred to whatever all boys school trickstar is going to, but instead of being trickstars producer shes just part of their friend group and theres no war. switch exists as a magic act, performing at events and whatnot. tsumugi also has his own fortune telling business and works as a librarian, and sora is a competitive gymnast. hajime is a botanist and works for the city managing public gardens. mitsuru became an olympic athlete. when nazuna graduated he went to college to do ...whatever it is hes doing. since there was no unit keeping them together, he was able to just stop talking to shu and they eventually drifted apart painlessly. tomoya and hokuto are actors. subaru is a solo idol. the twins street performances took off and they became a well known acrobatic duo. shinobu is a radio host and has a podcast where he talks about anime. tetora is a competitive martial artist. midori happily works as a vegetable farmer with his family.

rinne and niki live the same way they did before becoming idols, except niki has a cooking show. tsukasa secretly helps kohaku escape from his family and silently passes his allowance over to kohaku so he can live somewhere safe. as soon as he can he gets back into contact with aira. he lives alone like niki did when he was 14 and spends a lot of time in the library trying to homeschool himself. aira is still an idol fanatic but doesnt become an idol. hiiro goes to look for rinne, but rinne refuses to leave and hiiro goes home after making rinne promise hell still visit home sometimes. hiiro takes rinnes place as the next monarch. tatsumi and kaname still go to the same school but kaname never has the accident, so oremeru never abandons his identity and has no reason to hate tatsumi. tatsumi is learning to be a priest from his dad and will eventually take over as the pastor at his family's church. since es was never built on the same land as the ayase's bunker, mayoi would stay underground for longer. if he left at some point hed be a visual artist and submit his work to galleries. he probably wouldnt meet the rest of alkaloid, at least not right away.

so thats what i think would happen, more or less.

[mekatrio]

hibihiyo has soooo much unexplored potential like hello. like firstly how they are both equally suitable hosts for focusing eyes and its implied that their positions of being in the daze vs being out of the daze have been interchangeably swapped throughout different routes

which is SOOO interesting and i wished that was touched on more (forever grateful to mr2 for giving focusing eyes to hiyori). and also how theyre yuukei quartet af cuz both yuukei quartet pairs are sorted by [the one who remembers] and [the one who forgets], like:

the one who remembers: ayano, takane

the one who forgets: shintaro, konoha

and yeah i know konoha technically isnt part of the quartet but hes like acting as our proxy ok, and his whole thing is being an amnesiac. in most routes ene asks him if he remembers her and he says he doesnt. and ofc with shinaya its how yakitsu remembers the past routes while it takes a while for shintaro to.

and how this relates to hibihiyo.. cuz they have one of the more distinct dazes out of everyone. during their daze, from their point of view, theyre the one whose remembering the mini-timeloop theyre in while the other one is forgetting. on hiyori's side she sees hibiya die again and again but he doesnt remember, but its the opposite for hibiya. like they keep changing between who remembers and who doesnt.

and also hibiya shares this parallel with shintaro:

except hibiya is remembering while shintaro is forgetting... come on!!!

[yuukei-yikes]

Do you have any headcanons about Hibiya's relationships with the rest of the Dan after the series? I was always a little disappointed we didn't really get to see him interact much with anyone besides hiyori, konoha, and momo. I would have loved to see him properly integrated as a member of the group and hanging out with them 🥲

YESSSSS I'VE ACTUALLY BEEN MEANING TO DRAW HIBIYA HANGING OUT WITH EVERYONE SEPARATELY TO LIKE POINT OUT DYNAMICS but then i never did 💔 i still will at some point

hibiya is the mekakushi dan's little brother.

0. ayano's big sister radar goes off incredibly fast when meeting hibiya. she spoils the hell out of him because hibiya is largely independent and already has momo as a big sister for emotional stuff so when ayano's like WANT ME TO PATCH UP THE HOLE IN UR SHIRT hibiya's like what. i know how to do that myself. and ayano's like fine i will buy your love if i must. so she's always taking him shopping and asking if he needs anything new. he comes back every summer to the city with broken ass sandals and ayano's always sending him back with shiny new ones. he still rly enjoys having her around but he looks at her more in a motherly light than sisterly. he'd DIE before admitting it tho

1. srry to play the cooking card with kido again but. hibiya and kido cooking together :) i think kido is very impressed with hibiya's cooking and hibiya is SUPER used to being taken for granted so when they point it out to him he almost bursts into tears. i think hibiya is always looking for compliments from kido bc kido is super cool and The Leader and they kinda have a teacher's pet dynamic LMAOO hibiya is always asking kido if he can help with any chores so of course it works and he's kido's favorite student. if this was a class which is not. so he's just a rly helpful kid kido enjoys having around and hibiya loves that kido is really normal. also kidomomo. yeah. hibiya and his lesbian moms. also kido teaches hibiya how to bind. ratio

2. with seto... i remember reading this fic in ff/net back in the golden days of kagepro (so like. 10 years ago) that was like hibiya resenting seto bc he was still hurting abt hiyori and while everyone died with a loved one seto lost a DOG. i thought it was so funny bc it's so immature but seems so in character for hibiya. also in the novels when hibiya is unconscious he's taken to seto's room. i think hibiya thinks the whole dan act like fools (bc they ARE) but kind of respects and looks up to seto because hibiya is 12 and according to my intensely calculated family headcanons was raised in a toxic masculinity household so he sees this Buff Guy getting up at 5am everyday and holds more than one job for his family...he's like (nod nod nod) and he also really respects how seto refuses to use his eye power because of its. erm. unethical nature. hibiyas like UGH SETO IS SO COOL SUCH A MAN'S MAN. seto is mostly oblivious to this and always always always ruffles hibiyas hair. everyone does this but seto is the only one hibiya doesnt yell at

3. i think kano would go easy on hibiya cuz he's a kid but not entirely bc if kano isnt totally insufferable to everyone he knows at least once a day he gets sick and dies. i think kano tries to do the big sibling thing abt convincing the little brother of a total bullshit lie like basically his hobbie is gaslighting hibiya for fun. hibiya goes screaming for kido to make him stop lol. also kano's the one who's always saying shit like hibiya is 8 years old. even when hibiya's an adult kano's like how old are u again. u turned like 15 right

4. man mary tries acting SOOOO GROWN UP to hibiya she's like desperately trying to seem like a cool older sister but on purpose. with everyone else it's kind of natural but she is actively trying. momo bestie so also around a lot and sees how momo (hibiyas big sister #1) acts around him and tries doing the same and hibiya's like. this is pathetic. but still endearing and accepts it LOL he's also respectful of mary bc he's well aware of her role in their survival so he's like SIGHS okay

6. takane is everyone's demise because she introduces hibiya to smartphones and gaming. like hibiya rly wanted a smartphone right and then he makes all these friends and has to go back to the village so he takes an intensive course ran by takane abt how to use a phone. which is all good. but the thing is she is ALSO like ur so weird kid. here. play some amongus. this is how amongus hibiya can still win. everyone like vinnie hibiya cant be a fortnite kid bc he has no idea abt gaming he doesnt even have a phone WELL i got news for u buddy my fave character is takane and im also totally delusional. she is the reason hibiya is texting the gc in total typos asking if anyone wants to among us. and he's so thankful to her he expresses his gratitude thru sending her amongus and minecraft memes he finds around that she's seen a thousand times but it's rly endearing. also hibiya is shintaro coded so takane knows how to handle him sorry im so delusional abt their friendship (holds their chapter together from novel eight close to my chest)

7. eheheheheh. like i said. hibiya is shintaro coded like in canon both momo and takane say hibiya reminds them of shintaro like he's a little shin. and momo adopting hibiya means shintaro gets little brother by default too. his ass is always at HIS HOUSE!!!! i talked abt this in a post once abt how seeing hibiya and momo together makes shintaro want to try a little harder at being a big brother. i think they like each other and shintaro always lets hibiya sit in his room if momo is being too insane, and hibiya sometimes is like well shintaro's actually pretty normal!! (immediately sees him act a fool bc ofc he does) eugh. also shintaro helps hibiya with his summer hw, i think hibiya's a good student but appreciates the help and tells shintaro he thinks he'd make a rly good teacher and continues writing down on his hw all casually while shintaro has to act like he didn't get all choked up hearing that

9. i've talked abt the haruka and hibiya shitshow lol but again i love the idea of hibiya just totally refusing to acknowledge konoha's gone and keeps kicking and screaming abt it. bc if konoha is rly gone then it means he regrets everything bc he was so mean to it and its bc of it hiyori is alive (hiyori doesnt act this way bc she's well aware of it) and that SUCKS. so hibiya largely avoids haruka and isn't all that into how hiyori is really accepting of him and all. and haruka is also like. awkwardly trying to approach him because it's the least he can do in konoha's memory but hibiya's like hissing at him. eventually hibiya would accept it after a couple breakdowns. i think momo also punches some sense into him. i want hibiya to lash out at haruka and scream all sorts of things at him abt how it's not fair konoha is gone and like who even is he and just overall say all the things haruka is already super insecure about but then it ends on hibiya sobbing in his arms abt how much he misses konoha. and haruka can only hug him back and apologize :(

[princesseevee06]

are there any changes to the floormasters in ytr? <- autistic abt the floormasters

im assuming rio ranger doesnt exist here, because. sei. but im curioieus

i am so glad you asked!!! i’ve been waiting for an excuse to talk about the floormasters, they’re just not as fleshed out as i want them to be yet…(this is partially because i keep agonizing over what i want their designs to look like. it’s hard to find a balance between “silly yet stylish” and “just walked out of the evil clown circus”)

originally, i was planning to keep them the same but i quickly realized that would not work because sei and sou are both participants and therefore ranger and “midori” never Exist. so yes, they (most of them) are swapped too!

i will say that i kept gashu and meister in the same roles though. gashu because i think it would be vv interesting to see kai interact with his father in the death game (since he never gets the chance to in canon), and meister because 1. he almost certainly has ties to sara and 2. atp in the game he hasn’t played a big enough role to the point that i really even know what to do with him? so i was hesitant to swap him at all.

but but but!!! i’ll get into who takes the roles of the other 4 floormasters below (i hope this is what you were asking for???)!!! bear with me if it’s a little barebones compared to the main cast descriptions i’m still figuring things out

Megumi Sasahara > Sue Miley

Tbh I have my suspicions that canon Megumi already has ties to Asunaro so making her a floormaster in this AU felt like a logical move. I don’t have that much to say about her as of yet, but since she’s the first floormaster she sets a much different tone for the beginning of the story in comparison to Miley. Whereas Miley’s presentation feels very ‘cartoonishly evil,’ Megumi is a lot more serious about the game which kind of hammers in for the participants how highly important their captors regard the Death Game. Basically…even more dread and unease…especially after Nao’s death.

Hinako Mishuku (fake) > Rio Ranger

So this one is kind of what spurred on the idea of swapping the floormasters as well, because I really wanted to do something with pink-haired Hinako and/or see her interact with black-haired Hinako. Then I thought of a very tragic idea: what if pink-haired Hinako and black-haired Hinako were twins?

So I thought of the name Hana Mishuku for her. Basically, my idea was that the Mishuku twins’ parents split up because one of them started getting involved with Asunaro, and as a result the twins were separated. While Hinako led a relatively normal life, Hana was stuck with her father and unwittingly forced into becoming an agent for Asunaro at a very young age.

She acts similar to her canon personality, with a sort of dry callousness. She does still have a soft spot for her sister (and seeing her again after years doesn’t help) but she believes that’s something she has to ruthlessly stamp out in order to survive in the organization. (can you tell thinking about her makes me sad…)

Shunsuke Hayasaka > Tia Safalin

I am so sorry to all Hayasaka fans but his character is the definition of wasted potential to me. He clearly had ties to Asunaro (albeit seemingly unwillingly) and yet this is something that comes up like. Once? So I decided to take advantage of it here and make him play a bigger role. Rather than just doing dirty work for the organization, he gets swept into it and he HATES it. He’s pretty much only following orders because he doesn’t want to be killed, and rather than acting like a mild-mannered office worker he acts much more like a jaded, pessimistic office worker (someone please help this man). I also think he’d have a fun dynamic with Hana, but that’s something I’ll likely elaborate on in future doodles…

Momdori/Mrs. Hiyori/whatever you wanna call her > Midori

This one was probably the most fun for me to put together. Maybe it’s bias because the mysteries of Sou Hiyori’s family will forever intrigue me, but I think that his mom (or who I presume is his mom but really we only have a silhouette) has such interesting potential. I definitely don’t believe her and Sou would have a healthy dynamic here, what with just the way both of them act (i.e. insufferably) and their seemingly incompatible views of Asunaro (borderline religious devotion vs. as a tool for further experimentation/entertainment). (i could go on for literally hours and hours about their dynamic in this au but i’ll save that for another day)

As for her actual role in the story, I think she’d act very similar to Midori at first, but over time be revealed to have less of the childish behavior and more cruelty + cult-ish behavior. She’d also regard the participants differently: constantly emphasizing how they’re all fated to be sacrifices for God etc, etc until everyone is incredibly annoyed. (good thing for them that the goal of the subgame is to kill her!)

uhhhhh uhhhh anyways i don’t know what else to say but i hope this satisfies your curiosity! i’ll definitely revisit the floormasters again once i figure out what the hell to do with their designs but for now, as thanks for reaching the end of this rant take this momdori:

[mihai-florescu]

Could you tell me about priest all I know is that he took in himeru when he ran away but I still hated him for even that so like. Make me hate this guy more please

I mean, a lot of my knowledge is from livetweets of 1.5 from over a year ago, but yeah he's actually crazy and not in a fun way. He was one of Godfather's 3 confidants along with Gatekeeper and Apostle/ Akehoshi. He's obsessed with godfather and the concept of soul transferring and preservation. He's also a master of disguise and jealous of godfather's preference for Akehoshi.

After godfather's death he impersonates the man, at some point goes to australia and kidnaps an aboriginal woman hoping her knowledge will help with his mission of achieving preservation and transferring of the soul beyond death (we are not meant to sympathize with his actions. Like, very obviously the story does not paint him or his actions positively at all). They have 2 kids (that we know of...), at first a daughter, then when he gets a son, he doesnt care about her anymore, she ends up in an orphanage. The son ends up finding out that he has a sister (iirc from gatekeeper?) and meets with her a few times, but priest doesnt like this and decides to get rid of his daughter for good (sets fire to the orphanage). Hitsugi is distraught and that's when the split happens, he gets an alter of his sister, NEGI. The entirety of 1.5 makes you question whether it's her actual soul, if theyve achieved the soul transfer their dad was after. Or if she was born from the intense grief of a traumatized child. The more compelling reading is the latter, if you ask me, and i dont really care for the former as i find it cheapens the story.

Well, anyway, NEGI wants to be an idol, Priest hears that she's still alive, sends a hitman after Hitsugi, the arc ends with NEGI performing for the first and only time as herself, with the other yumenosaki students protecting her during the concert, and as she leaves the stage, she gets shot, is quickly taken to the hospital and pronounced dead. She only leaves a clue through a letter to Anzu that this was staged, for Priest to think Hitsugi & NEGI are dead and to stop sending hitmen. They've taken in a new identity and work at the rebuilt orphanage where the original sister had lived. They occasionally return, but we dont actually see them (they helped J, from the same orphanage, fake his death in Last Mission to escape the mafia who were after his inheritance)

Then Priest's last appearance chronologically is in the SS finals, where he disguises himself as Hiyori iirc? I know the idols have a plan to lure him out, i just dont know exactly what the stakes are. As I said a few days ago (if not yesterday?) I'm dying to read this story, I was still somewhat of a new fan (and i was focusing on understanding ! era, so hadnt read !! stories yet except sanctuary and next door i think) when it came out, so I really dont know to tell you how the Priest story ends. I remember hearing he's dead now, but if anyone who has read the story could confirm or deny...?

[ankhisms]

ok heres my ep 47 and 48 live reaction thoughts

ep 47

the meteor landed in 1999 i wouldve been one year old...

still dont really understand if the worms are life forms from a different planet brought over on the meteor or if they come from some kind of source of life that was on the meteor and upon crashing on earth they came into being. i doubt were going to get an answer but also im just putting too much scientific thought into one of the most ridiculous random bullshit happens [affectionately] kamen rider shows

the opening of this episode is interesting because were getting flashbacks of very early kabuto and its interesting for me to see the aspects of the early show which i really liked, the kind of horror elements of the show that i feel like kind of tapered off towards the middle of the show and now i wonder if were reintroducing that kind of existential dread as we finish the show. the last episode certainly had that kind of horror of existing at all

well now everyone just has worm detection necklaces i guess idk how they made that happen but okay

not gorou chan is so mad about the idea of zect disbanding which is typical business guy behavior like the threat is gone and we are no longer needed? no i want more power

KAGEYAMA STEALING SEVERAL OF THE NECKLACES HELP

lets make the hiyori chef debut menu waaaaaa

i knew it was tendou attacking the truck of the necklaces because he doesnt want hiyori to be killed. cries

misaki is like dude. you cant ask kagami to kill his boyfriend. we already did this at the start of the show

now what the fuck is not gorou chan doing with tendou two. why did he stroke his hair like that like. ummmm

RENGE HAS BEEN SHOT I REPEAT RENGE HAS BEEN SHOT

ep 48

augh the wife finding out her husband is a worm with their baby in her arms and the husband being killed was really sad like god. made me think about how many other incidents like that happened yknow

hiyori and jyuka cooking in the kitchen together..  sisters... crying

ok renge is alive thank fucking god and tendou brought her food in the hospital.. i guess he hadnt meant for her to get hurt then thanks tendou

is kageyama fucking dying good lord. NOPE OK HES A WORM. ALRIGHT. SURE. HE WAS A WORM THIS WHOLE TIME I GUESS

oh i KNEW not gorou chan was gonna try some shit. talk about a hostile business take over

shoutout to tendou for saving tendou two that entire reveal about tendou twos backstory was so fucking horrifying like yknow what i think the guy is allowed to be a bit blood thirsty and batshit after all that. what the fuck truly

their plan is to fucking. make everyone into worms i guess. what in the god damn

hasnt tendou two suffered enough do they have to throw him around like a rag doll leave him aloneeeee

well tendou is unkillable this is a known fact so im sure kagami didnt actually kill him. but kagami THINKS that he killed him. and boy you can tell thats already weighing on him immediately. AND THEN RIGHT AFTER HE FINDS OUT ABOUT HIS DAD. DOUBLE WHAMMY

the way kagami says i killed him and the way his dad quietly reacts when kagami says kabuto is our enemy like oh kagami things are so fucked

the hoppers are going thru it my god OH HEY WHAT THE FUCK. THATS SO SAD WHAT THE FUCK

humanitys future is in your hands kagami. no pressure

tendou fighting against the entire world as long as it means his sisters can live vs kagamis dad saying im okay with dying but you have to live

oh tendou in the rubble parallel is good

whats better than this. falling in the mud puddle with your dad running away from the law

[asbestieos]

hey its ur funny friend comin at you live from. bed room. thoughts on um um um um um um um um. kogamao. sorry i have propoganda to uphold. also if u dont mind id like to hear ur thoughts on hiyojun :]

h ih i hi h ih i h i hi hi h i h i h i h ih i h i lvoenyou awlways i like seeing you on my dash always forever and ever )picks you up like a pikmin and sets u on my desk inder my lamp to study)

kogamao

(chef’s kiss) two independent boybosses…. finding out koga’s nickname for mao was a delight HELP boy is calling his own luvr forehead </3 i love gay people they just tear into each other with no qualms! theres something about them both being self-sufficient (mao because hes like rei 2.0 in the sense that everyone relies on him and he juggles Too Many responsibilities; koga because hes literally on his own, chasing his dream after the idol who inspired him graduated) that makes me sad. sadness should be abolished by the thought of them hanging out. they check in with each other to make sure the other doesnt fucking conk out from the stress of Doing Things By Themself. they respects each other 👊 theyre a casual thing they get to be silly teenage boys when theyre together ok no more being normal :insanity: i need them to be geeky dorks together i need them to remind each other that theyre 17 and its one day at a time and you do not in fact have to be on the 24/7 grind to be alive. i know theres a lot of mess and a lot of relationships in enstars but these two should get to be messy together does that make sense am i understandable. they need to stumble through a relationship because neither of them have any idea what theyre doing and how long itll last :insanity: they need to have fun trying out the love thing :insanity:

unrelated i still go crazy thinking about how koga trained tori and makoto and was so kind to alkaloid hes just like. secretly very very nice and nurturing (read: not on surface level) to younger people 🥹 even if he scares the shit out of everyone he trains 💔

hiyojun

theyre like kanajun except way more annoying i cares for them much. the way jun is so incredibly done w hiyoris shit on a daily basis… thats poor boy/rich girl love baby!! theyd be the couple in high school making out in the school halls when its time to switch classes. or the couple at school football matches arguing bc of some bullshit drama. idk what happens in high school anymore its been 2 years 💔 they remind me of this couple i knew in hs, they would like constantly be either loveydovey or hate mode like im talking theyd be blushing and ohemgee’ing one period and the next theyr spouting literal vitriol (or it might just be my personal experience w the one person in the relationship) it did end in disaster, thats what happens when a theater boy and a stagecrew girl date 💔 sorry for going on a tangent for hiyojun i just think theyre neat rn.. hiyori brings jun along to pretty 5 sleepovers and calls him his cringefail purse doggy

honest opinions ship ask game

[non-fantasy]

aizo can cook and i think it's amazing how easily i can imagine him giving hiyori and yujiro lunchboxes like "i made too much, so take the extras!" all blushingly. hiyori calls aizo the best cook ever and yujiro is like "well he oversalted this but it's still good"

i think yujiro would steal extra bits from aizo's lunchbox and hiyori would ask if she can have some more all cutely and aizo's like "seriously, you two have your own lunches...!" but he still feeds them a bit more. he doesnt realize it's an indirect kiss until hiyori starts blushing and yujiro laughs at both of them for getting embarrassed

[non-fantasy]

(copy pasting something i sent a friend before)

okay but do you want to think about how original heroine training plan novel was about hiyori having a crush on this guy she met once and loving the ideal version of him she made in her head while literally not knowing the first thing about him but then it involves her actual genuine bond with aizo and yujiro that happened BECAUSE she knows their true selves and flaws and still likes them and they still like her

because i have so many emotions about how in a series that typically romanticizes love at first sight and first loves, hiyori's first love ends with her getting rejected and she MOVES ON and how amazing it would be if her second loves are aizo and yujiro, who ARE NOT her ideal princes but she likes them anyways

like theres this maturation kind of like in the fact that she would go from liking this ideal fantasy that doesnt exist anywhere to loving aizo and yujiro, two people who can show their genuine selves around hiyori??? but also like they are both idols who literally cannot show their true selves to their fans and are so used to being adored for their fake selves.

and like do you want to think about how aizo and yujiro really aren't WRONG when they tell hiyori she has fallen for a guy just because he did an act of kindness that anyone would do for anyone and that she was romanticizing him because she wanted to meet a prince... but when they make her cry with their brutal honesty, they decide to make it up to her??? aizo and yujiro bring her to the park and get her a drink to help her calm down and aizo chin tilts her!!! and they declare that they're going to turn hiyori into cinderella and they go ALL OUT in supporting her!!! aizo literally plans strategy meetings and yujiro tries to get her clothes

i could ramble so much about how funny the heroine training plan scenes on the novel are. yujiro tries to get hiyori clothes and accidentally gets a bag full of cosplay. aizo sends hiyori to ask her crush's name and she comes back gushing about how her crush gave her a cough drop. yujiro eats the cough drop. aizo and yujiro correct hiyori's love letter for spelling mistakes. one time aizo makes a list of everything hiyori knows about her crush and it involves things like "anteater" and "hamster attack". hiyori's first attempt at confessing ends in disaster because yujiro and aizo start arguing and her crush's childhood friend shows up just to make the situation worse

but then!!! hiyori hears a police siren and kidnaps yujiro to protect him from another scandal but then!!! yujiro genuinely apologizes to her for ruining her confession!!! even though hiyori was just thinking about how his and aizos attempt to help her was ruined because her hair got messed up and she had to take off her shoes and "the magic wore off"... she laughs because she isn't mad at him at all. and then she goes to confess to her prince and they have a genuine conversation about how he can't date anyone because hes aiming to be an idol and hiyori smiles and promises to be his fan

and she returns to yujiro (who was WAITING FOR HER) to try and joke about how she was rejected and she ends up crying and he wipes her tears for her!!! he makes a joke about her crying face to make her laugh and walks her home!!!

like the original heroine training plan had so much! character growth and bonding and fairy tale motifs and funny scenes and wow!!! the hard-working cinderella got rejected by her prince but she can move on!!! her mean stepsisters turned out to be fairy godmothers who were supporting her... and she thinks of them as princely!!!

and also the scenes in it that get to me are like

hiyori gets a bracelet meant to help people find their true love... and it breaks when she's protecting yujiro but he GIVES IT BACK TO HER AND WISHES HER LUCK BEFORE SHE CONFESSES... she got rejected but she got closer to aizo and yujiro so who did the bracelet help her with?

aizo gives hiyori advice and it's cute and sweet and also so comical. he tells her that sometimes people hide who they are and she goes "i think you're easy to read though?" and aizo goes "NOT AS EASY AS YOU". his advice to hiyori on apologizing to yujiro is literally "just do it".

also do you want to think about how aizo gave hiyori the mean at first but became affectionate teasing nickname of "potato girl" but by the end of heroine training plan she tells him he can never call her that again... but he hasn't called her that for so long... also hiyori hugs him and tries to hug yujiro as thanks for helping her with the makeover

also what about the scene where hiyori fills in for an actress during a photoshoot and blushes madly at aizo and yujiro having to hug her in affectionate poses. she thought

Side One: Group Fifteen: Round One

Hiyori Suzumi x Yujiro Someya x Aizo Shibasaki from Honeyworks[Confession Executive Committee] vs. Eda Clawthorne x Raine Whispers from The Owl House

[tatsumi-harem-chronicles]

omg nonidol au hiyori dreaming of becoming a therapist/psychiatrist after his childhood encounter with nagisa, and he meets jun bc jun gets sports anime'd and dragged into a team wherein he learned the magic of goals and friendship and trains to become a professional athlete and hiyori is the team/school's designated sports nurse aid person thing bc hiyori's taken like every medical related class the school offers and n e ways what im saying is hiyojun injury meet cute

ibara is the team manager “where is nagisa” he is the star of the cheerleading team ☆

hiyori, jokingly: you should join the cheerleading team! the uniform would looks so good on you ;) nagisa: :nagisasilence: a week later, hiyori: ajpsoudfigsdjop why are you wearing that?!?!! (<- is dying) nagisa: it looks good on me

BSKDBKVN

of course it is the oblivious reciprocated mutual pining between childhood friends

hiyori (sputtering): i-it.. joek it .. it w s a cnf .. , it es d a j ok ..,, nagisa: why are you talking like that. are you broken. do you need a kiss to fix you hiyori: KISSING CANNOT FIX EVERYTHING (yes please)

hiyori screams "iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii hiyori" when hes overwhelmed by gay/flustered but its like very broken and barely comprehensible and like almost always when one of his boyfs kisses him when he doesnt expect it 👀

TRUTH. REAL [1]o my god the mental image of hyper flexible nagisa in my head

[1]he does a flip and ibara spitakes, hiyori falls off the bench, and jun trips over his feet

ibara: JUN HOW DID YOU MISS THAT GOAL. IT WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU. jun (pointing at nagisa doing a heel stretch): h,

[2]jun notices some people on the other team also watching nagisa and suddenly the second half is a massacre [2]hiyori also debutes as a cheerleader for this specific moment

for most games nagisa is benched because if he were out on the field cheerleading, the other team would have too many bones broken by jun

wait what sport does jun play

every single one ♡ /joke

idk i was hoping no one would ask 😭

[3]i kinda wanna say baseball

its whichever sport would be the funniest to have a cheerleading team for. for example. golf, /joke

[4]so then ibara has an excuse to keep a bunch of metal bats in the dorm

[3]👀 hed look good in a baseball uniform

BASEBALL JUN REAL

[4]really know how to make a man happy…

wait a minute what if newbie kaname joins the baseball team to get the hot cheerleader's attention but knows nothing about how to play baseball so jun has to teach him [5][7][high school musical 2 “i don’t dance” gif]

jkahfkjnakjdsnfkjndsaf

[5]my half braincell go brrrr

GDHBDDJFBFKFK THATA REALY GOOD

[6]all i can think is a little baker boy wandering into a college baseball team like 1 member away from disbandment and being lured/guilted/kidnapped into joining it 😭

jun teaching kaname how to fucking swing properly and he cant even hit the ball because hes too distracted over this attractive guy thats guiding his hands and adjusting his stance and ooohh. kaname down bad

[random tangent about prince of stride (anime)]

[6]aira being coerced into the basketball club /joke

[7]omg wait in a important or semi-important game kaname somehow manages to hit a very stratigically good home run and is so proud of himself and cheers and its the first time hes managed to hit it that far and hes going up to everyone for double high fives and when jun (confused, stunned) lifts his arms up on reflex to copy the way kaname tossed his up kaname laces their fingers for a bit and gives their hands a hearty swing and smiles so so brightly and happily and stupidly pridefully and smug and oh my god jun might be in love with this idiot too [8]yes i am making kaname enjoy swinging his and his fave ppl's clasped hands a thing

hiiro picks up the habit [8]WAIT

REAL

U THINK HE DOES THAT CUS MANAMI AND HIMERU DID THAT WITH HIM WHEN HE WAS SMOL

> :OOOO

[replying to old message of a fanart asta drew, manami is on the left, himeru is on the right, and kaname is in the middle- holding both of their hands in the air as he jumps, they all look incredibly fond]CIRCA ^^^^

MANAMI DID IT TO HIM ALL THE TIME AND THEN HE STARTED DOING IT TO HIMERU

IT HAS COME FULL CIRCLE..

he thought it was normal until niki acted all suprised 🥺

[kvgehiras]

yes yes np!! sorry if this is a bit late btw aaaaaa

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

• jun!!!!!! i think he would probably start liking u after u guys became friends? he just likes that u were such a chill person nd he would feel so excited around u !!!!!!

• poor boy used to think that it's bcs ur such an amazing person!!!!! nd everyone should be like that w u !!!!!

• but seeing his cheeks get a lil extra pink whenever he'd see u or talk to u, nd he'd stand upright everything started clicking for detective hiyori

• "jun-kun is in love?!?!!!?!?!?!!! time for Detective Hiyori to investigate (✧▽✧)"

• "what the fuck ohii-san"

• but after listening to hiyori's reasoning nd thinking abt it Too Much he suddenly realised that mayb. just mayb. hiyori is right (for once)

• nd so after devising a plan to confess to u, he finally does it in the middle of a game that u two were playing in the gaming cafe

• "y/n? uh do u ...have a second?"

• "hm? what's up? :D?"

• "i..uh...i kinda like u? yea.. but this is just to inform!!!! hope it's not too burdening-"

• "oh i know that!!! ur too uh- too obvious? but it's ok!!! bcs i like u too, was waiting for u to say it hehe :D"

• man gasps so loud u have to shush him bcs there r other ppl here too JDJDJJD

• but yea!!! he LOVES gaming dates so much !!!!! ur so playfully competitive he likes it so much!!!!!! nd u even offer hugs nd lil kisses as an apology sometimes if he gets pouty bcs u won (which he obv loves so he sometimes loses on purpose..... oh what a lovesick puppy)

• speaking of the last point!!!! jun is Such a tsundere ...... but dw but hiyori always pushes jun to do the thing he wants to do anyway instead of making plan for it

• "hm.....they do know that im bad at racing stuff.....so how abt mario kart.....hm.... which arena would be the most believable....."

• "? jun-kun why cant u just ask them to kiss u or whatever that yall do? theyre ur s/o yk"

• ":0000.......i mean....ig i can try it..."

• mans asks u for a kiss nd so u grab his cheeks nd give him a lil kiss on his nose nd then on his lips "as an extra gift for not planning smthg extra to get the kiss! ^^"

• jun's starting to believe that hiyori either shares info w u or it's both ways but he doesnt mind bcs now he can mimic u nd grab ur cheeks to kiss u at times which catches u off-guard nd GOD jun loves the lil blush that slowly appears on ur cheeks once u take in the moment, ur face in his hands

• he also becomes clingy as the relationship goes on!!!!!! hes like a lil lost puppy, following u around at all times....give him pats ok he loves them alot (only when it's u tho!!!!!! none from ohii-san!!!!!!!!!!!)

• he also likes showing u off but like . slyly? if that makes sense? nothing v hiyori-esque but he'd sometimes mention the things u do nd smile abt them when hes talking to either of his unit mates or any of his gamer friends!!!!

• he's rlly so so glad to have u, give him pats nd lots of kisses ok!!!!! ruffle his hair too he likes it

Noragami Chapter 90 thoughts

A monthly hello to my crying babes from another crying babe due to yet another heart wrenching, tear jerking, STRESSFUL chapter.

Let’s get straight into this.

Yukine doesn’t remember stabbing Yato?

So the feline/phantom state he was in might very possibly be a place where the true Yukine has no control, he’s so full of emotion that this form took over him and all he got was blurry images and the core of his hatred, which is his father. As we all know Yato has been the father figure and, well, it wouldn’t have been hard in Yukine’s state to see them as one. My question is, while he was fighting Yato, when did he start to get confused on who he was talking to? Was it when he was listing out words to describe his real-life dad? Earlier?

THIS MADE ME SO SAD,????

I wonder if Yukine actually wanted to fight him? I wonder if he was in the form he is now, would the outcome have been different?? Would he have listened?

+ Also where could Yato have gone? Maybe Kazuma reverted and brought him somewhere safe to patch him up

She was sending her husband money for her child but never bothered to ask how he was or anything? Maybe Naomichi was threatening enough to make sure they didn’t contact them, since he probably made himself clear with Haruki—and forbid him to connect with Yuka?

But, something about his mother not even checking on her own son even once a month, is, well, concerning. It doesn’t look like his mum was a bad person all around considering she was paying Naomichi regularly (which, by the way, i imagine he probably spent on drinking), but something still smells suss.

I find it very cute that these two have been by one another’s sides. The big sister/little sister dynamic between these two is, *chefs kiss*

It’s also nice to see that Mizuchi looks out for Hiyori at least in some aspect. Hiyori has been looking out for her, treating her as a person and not a tool, showing her affection in small ways,(holding her hand, giving her scarf to wear, her uniform.) Not sure if Mizuchi herself realizes how much she appreciates the gestures or what she’s doing yet, but it’s nice to see her finally developing—a girl who has so much wisdom over the years but still has so, so much to learn regarding showing her own affection.

Just gonna rant here for a few lines.

I LITERALLY HATE HOW HIYORI DOESNT EVEN CARE ABOUT HER OWN LIFE IF IT MEANS SAVING YUKINE AND SEEING YATO. She’s willing to go so far, she’s such a selfless character who gives so much and asks for so little. I want to give her the world.

Also the handholding. The handholding.

Also; isn’t it crazy how Yato wanted to make sure Hiyori stayed out of this mess between them but it ended up being her putting her own life on the line too because this IDIOT, my baby, my blue eyed cinnamon apple, doesn’t know how to deal with his problems in a healthy way. Guess they’ve all got something to learn. (A lot.)

Again. Odd.

HOW is it that they had, to this day, no idea what happened to Haru. Did they really just give up searching? :/

Some of you have mentioned this already, and i will AGREE that Adachitoka have backed themselves into a corner with the way they’re writing this story that it can’t turn out to be a cookie cutter happy ending tied in a nice neat bow. We’ve got three lives at stake right now, plus very unstable characters mentally. Everyone couldn’t possibly get a happy ending.

Hiyori’s had a near-death experience more than thrice now, something’s telling me we might get an actual death if the writers don’t decide to give in to flower fields and sun rays on smiling faces for the end.

Tell us about Shinaya’s breakup :D

HEHDJEIDNEKFJEKDKEK ive had this ask since i posted i was thinking abt it MAN i cannot express to u i just. I WANNA WRITE A FIC SO BAD but AUGH im so bad at it it makes me cringe i cant do that but its basically like all my damn posts together u know. i keep thinking of shintaro's disastrous relationships post str going from ayano to kano to takane etcetc sorry im playing with him like a stress toy making him go thru hell but its so fun

srry i dont wanna have to rewrite a lot of stuff so erm im liking this answer 🫡🫡🫡 and i could link a bunch more just so u SEE MY VISION... but i think linking that is enough. ON AND OFF SHINAYA MY BELOVED

shintaro and ayano sort of having this ridiculous relationship because both are hurting and jumped in a relationship too quick but fighting/being sad about stupid shit is so much easier than dealing with their actual issues that they've got with themselves. like focusing on each other and what they don't like about each other and their relationship is so much easier than crying about how suicidal they are. lollllll SO LIKE this insanity sort of saves them at the same time??

i mean the most ideal would be that instead of getting together they got therapy and the normal kind not the relationship kind. you know. but also theyre traumatized and ugh. its so much easier to resent each other than themselves. its so much easier to be petty. its such a relief to cry over relationship problems than over timeline resets or dead parents and etc. YOU GET ME?????

they keep breaking up and getting back together ridiculously like it is 1000% so dramatic each and everytime. ayano crying her eyes out like its the end of the world and shintaro making 100 sad playlists. and it happens at least monthly. the first time everyone's like WHOA THEY BROKE UP!?!? SHIT!! the second time its like heyyy maybe they'll work it out like last time!! third time its like are you joking. fourth time they're already begging them to stop. by they i mean the dan but especially takane by the way. who do you think is picking up the pieces.

and by the way the one breaking up all the time and being dramatic as hell is shintaro. he gets angry and annoyed and weaponizes the LETS BREAK UP thing because he DOESNT MEAN IT. like he knows he and ayano will work it out later. he gets comfortable again. not to get on the ayano surviving thing, but i think ayano (and hiyori but especially ayano) making it out alive undoes a big part of the message abt moving on. like i love her so im not complaining thats i love having her alive :3 but i like to translate this into shintaro like. he's intensely trying to repress/process all the memories of the other timelines to cope and have a normal life and ends up being this way because he's sort of self sabotaging himself. like ayano's alive and she likes me??? lol. ok?? ill wake up any moment now!! and he feels guilty and undeserving and is sort of a dickhead to her in an unconscious attempt of keeping her away because that's what he deserves according to him. also why he's accepting of takane's intense obsession with him lol bc she's familiar and she is comfortable, unlike ayano who is so rare and one in its kind in all the timelines. he is sort of terrified of her in a way.

the lets break up isnt rly a breakup. its just a leave me alone see u later. LOL i think we talk too much abt kanoshin bringing the worst in each other but what about shinaya. they do that too. yeah we CAN have fluffy shinaya. but like i said it is so easy to focus all this bitterness and sadness into each other and it's so relieving to be sad and angry about this rather than everything else. because this is sort of in their control while everything else isn't, wasn't. and its so unfair. of course its unfair!! but they cant do anything abt it. so they just go crazy on each other. ayano is DESPERATE to be needed. i could link more replies but i will hold myself back. basically her siblings are used to being alone/know she has her own problems and ayano is dealing with this emptiness and feeling of failure bc no one needs her, from her perspective her sacrifice still failed to save everyone, her parents are gone so she needs to step up. like she puts herself under all this pressure and feels Not Good Enough for ANYTHING. and she is dating shintaro.

it's EASY to bother him and try to get him to open up and etc so she ridiculously focuses on that. but it gets on shintaro's nerves to say the least LOL plus all his other issues i mentioned 🫡plus she keeps being like we have to be normal. lets kiss and hold hands and cuddle. but she's too embarrassed to say it/do it and shintaro is even more pathetic about it. so theyre both frustrated about everything and can barely even sit next to each other without acting insane.

AND SORRY BUT I WILL TALK ABT TAKANE🫡💞💗💖💝💕💘ofc. codependent shintaka. of course. it drives ayano CRAZY because on top of all their problems takane is able to talk sense into shintaro each and every single time. and she is soooo jealous like she knows its stupid but she cant help ittt i ALSO TALKED ABT THIS SORRY I KEEP REPEATING MYSELF IM JUST SO CRzy abt it. hehe......the whole mess bringing drama to harutaka too bc shintaro and ayano are so messy theyre contagious is so fun to me. when it comes to shintaro and takane's horrible relationship both their romantic relationships suffer for it but deal with it completely differently. while both haruka and ayano deal with jealousy somewhat, ayano is so hurt and already at the verge of a mental breakdown so she's focusing so many negative emotions on it and AGAIN it just serves as another point of argument between shintaro and ayano while haruka is like. his mental state isnt as convoluted as ayanos, he's rather freaking out and terrified of being left alone. THIS IS ABT SHINAYA so i wont get into harutaka side but lol. heh. Looks at it. zooms in it. like what i mean is that haruka and takane talk and work through it and are like sighs yeah...this is messed up while shintaro and ayano are using it against each other instead of working on it LMAO

ANYWAYS. ayano breaks up with shintaro. vine boom. total breakdown moment like everyone out of the room i wanna talk to you alone. and this time its for REAL. like ayano isnt confrontational at all, all their arguments are always her being pushy abt idk mental health and shintaro's like godddd STOPPPPP and ayano crying and shintaro being like I CANNOT DEAL WITH THAT. IM SORRY I GUESS. CAN U GET OUT OF THE ROOM. WE'LL TALK LATER. but he also sucks so bad at letting the other person know they can count on him so he kind of assumes ayano will do it when she's ready because he KNOWS she's in pain. like. ofc it could go well. ofc shintaro and ayano could work through everything with kindness and comprehension for each other but they're both so sad and suddenly find themselves annoyed at each other one time and it felt so freeing to do that that they just keep doing it. especially shintaro. having ayano be mad at him is sort of relieving because he feels undeserving of her and its like yeah. Yeah!! i know its ooc but shinaya screaming match.god. sorry but all their bottled up emotions abt everything and they take it out on each other for no reason other than theyre giving each other the space and it plays out that way. theyre acting crazy about something so stupid like shintaro not wanting ayano to wear his clothes or whatever. like they scream about that but its not about that. it just feels so good to scream. it feels so good to scream and let it out even if they haven't given themselves the time to process that theyre not... actually screaming abt that at all. theyre screaming about everything else. not even about each other. its about themselves. its always been.its never been about each other. when it is, its stupid. thats why they do it. its just easier. God. they were just not ready for a relationship, especially not one with each other out of all people.

ayano breaks first, therefore dumps shintaro lol. he goes thru his own fucked up arc afterwards while ayano gets help. my man spirals DOWN. whether they get back together or not depends on my mood 🤨 but if they do, its by the time theyre in their mid twenties or something so a few years later LOL i picture them dating like for over a year maybe?? when theyre 18/19. hehe.

like. do you get it.

[makoandharu]

i was rewatching s3e6 and noticed hiyori's expressions while on the phone with natsuya and it makes me wonder if he actually doesnt like him. whats your thoughts on this?

Hm i think he has a complicated relationship with Natsuya. I think he definitely respects him and I'm sure he's grateful that Nat trusts him enough to leave Ikuya in his care.

But Ikuya's happiness and health and general well-being (which includes his swimming times bc if he does badly he'll automatically not be happy with himself and beat himself up about it etc) are Hiyori's number 1 priority and I'm sure he knows that if Nat was there for Ikuya, Ikuya wouldn't be in such a dark place (we know the main reason Ikuya started "copying" Haru's freestyle is bc he wanted Natsuya to pay attention to him like he was to Haru; Hiyori's "always with the brother" line, as well as him having been friends with these two for so long shows Hiyori fully understands how much Ikuya needs his older brother.)

I think it must be frustrating, having this task of looking after Ikuya - a task that no-one BUT Hiyori would put their heart and soul into, a task he's eternally proud and grateful to be entrusted with - but knowing that he's not what Ikuya needs, knowing that if Natsuya was there for his brother then Ikuya wouldn't have to go back to his old traumas of facing Haru and feeling inadequate, or worse Ikuya wouldn't seek comfort from Haru instead of Hiyori.

[[I'm sure Hiyori is endlessly frustrated after every talk he has with him bc he probably just wants to scream like "but you can fix it! Come back and you could help him! It's what he needs!" But how can he do that without 1) being rude 2) godforbid making it sound like he doesn't wanna put the effort in to take care of Ikuya, as if he's not worth it 3) handing over control bc i think at this point he's also so accustomed to being the one to look after Ikuya that a part of him (albeit a small part of him) doesn't wanna hand him over to someone else to "fix" bc he's put so much effort into this and to see someone else take the fruits of his labour would be devastating bc it would once again show that Hiyori wasn't enough for his friend and i think he's reluctant to face that truth yet)]]

TL/DR IMO: I don't think he dislikes Natsuya, i think there's always gonna be too much respect for him to straight up not like him, but I'm sure Nat also isn't his favourite person in the world.

Thanks for asking dhjdjeheuseb <3
