The most homoerotically charged scene in the Death Note franchise is not the feet washing scene you guys, you freaks and fools, it’s this moment from the musical

#welcome to my obsession with the death note musical #love every bit of it. the music #the casting (both japanese and the english demo my GOD are jeremy jordan and jarrod spector’s duets fire)#the way they styled the actors so they look like the characters but not like theyre in cosplay #like if they had given L a spiky wig it does not hit the same #REM AND RYUK’S HUMAN DESIGNS??? PARTICULARLY REM’S?????????#Misa going from a model to a pop star???#and dont even get my STARTED on the adapted ending because ho l y shit #death note #my post #death note the musical #light yagami #l lawliet

I feel like I should say since there's been a recent uptick in a lot of communities I'm in/see stuff from a lot of white people pretending to be Asian, but you are not welcome here if you are in anyway stealing from Asian cultures for clout or the aesthetics of it

This includes if you're white and you give your self inserts Asian names, I truly do not care if your f/o is from an anime, you should not be using an Asian name under any circumstances. I hate that whenever I see someone using an Asian name online, I feel like I have to start searching their account to see if they're actually Asian or just a white person who likes the aesthetic of it bcs far too many white people will use Asian names here just bcs it sounds cool, with no regard for the actual cultural meaning behind it. Meanwhile actual Asian people will be mocked for their names, or treated like their names are too hard to learn to pronounce, or discriminated against based on their names

Asian cultures are not a fun little costume for people to dress up with. They aren't just a nice aesthetic, they aren't just a thing you can borrow from bcs you think it sounds cool

#my posts #selfship community #anti asian racism #like it's definitely a perpetual problem of white people not seeming to realize asian names are like #a thing that are tied to culture and identity #but it's gotten crazy lately with people pretending to be asian online for clout #just in the past like 3 weeks of things i've seen #we had the white woman pretending to be a japanese woman on comic twitter #the white woman who pretended to be korean to get a 'ownvoices' book published #(who btw. named herself kim chi. you cannot make this shit up)#and then the white guy pretending to be japanese to try to justify his hate of the new assassin's creed game using stuff around yasuke #like it's so draining. i hate how much this is a never ending problem #i hate how casually white people will use asian names #like worstie. i am a korean woman. but i am whitepassing and mixed so i never use korean names for my self inserts #bcs i have the privilege of looking white and people generally only knowing i'm asian if i say it #it feels inappropriate to me for me to name my self inserts a korean name #bcs that would then mean they experience the world in a different way than i do #even being whitepassing bcs of the way people treat korean (and other asian) names #if you are white you have no fucking right to asian names #idgaf if your f/o's an anime character. stay away from asian names bcs they are not yours to dress up in #vent a little bit sorry team #i've been dealing with white people doing this shit and being assholes to me about it for well over a year now. it's exhausting

#original character #ume #dragon #flowers #theres this handy tip that if you come up with a name for oc on your own look it up in case it's already an existing word #thankfully the acronym of universe-maintaining entity isn't a slur as far as google informed me but it's japanese apricot so

Kind of enjoyed his character teaser! :)

I think Lyney will be pretty interesting especially if he’s the main character introducing us to Fontaine (similarly to like collei and tighnari being the first characters for sumeru). The relationship between magic and law to the truth are very counter to each other, because magic presents falsehood as the truth while law is meant to uncover the truth and judge impartially based on it. I think the fact that we’re seeing a family of magicians in our first banner instead of a judge or a lawyer means a lot of fun things are in store for the Fontaine justice system in terms of how it handles falsehoods presented to it and how it judges what it perceives to be truth.

#genshin impact #lyney #don’t mind me on my agenda to cover the skin on every genshin character #anyways! I just think he’s kinda neat #probably not gonna pull for him because I’m kind of broke after baizhu and I want focalors to complete the archon set #and also because I don’t really enjoy his design that much #might get spooked if I try to pull for freminet tho since I do enjoy freminet quite a lot… gender…..#definitely one of the regions that I Cannot Play In English because I’ve taken French before and one of my biggest pet peeves is #mispronunciation! like how hard can it be to say Fontaine normally like a nromal person. the Japanese is even more accurate on this than #the English. who in their right mind would look at fontain and say ‘fon-TAYN’ like no!!!! no hard Ay sound! an eh suffices!

"why couldn't shuro have just been honest about what he felt with laios and falin it's not that hard" are you. are you White

#dungeon meshi #shuro #toshiro nakamoto #look you can hate him for other things but this is very clearly a case of cultures (& personalities influenced by these cultures) clashing #shuro is japanese/east asian-coded and laios is european white boy #i am not japanese but i also come from a collectivistic society #pakikisama is a filipino value both prized and abhorred #it relies heavily on being able to read social cues and prior knowledge of societal norms #shuro being from a different country/culture is important to his character #his repressed nature is meant to contrast with laios' open one like that's the point #they both had similar upbringings but different coping mechanisms #shuro explicitly admits that he's jealous of laios being able to live life sincerely #anyway the point is they were operating on different expectations entirely and neither had healthy enough communication skills #to hash things out before they got too bad #re his attraction to falin i personally believe he unfortunately mpdg-ed her #she represented something new & different. a fresh drink of water for his parched repressed self #alas not meant to be #i'll be honest the way ryoko kui handles both fantasy & regular racism in dm is more miss than hit for me #i don't doubt that a lot of the shuro hate is based off of marcille's pov of him #marcille famously racist 😭#characters' racist views don't often get (too) challenged #practically everyone is casually racist at some point #anyway. again if you're gonna hate shuro at least hate him for being complicit in human trafficking & slavery #he couldn't help falling for the wrong woman goddamn 😭#calemonsito notes #edit: upon further reflection i take back what i said about toshiro mpdg-ing falin!#i'm sorry toshiro 😭

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YOU DESERVE ONLY GOOD THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#jean boyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy 😭😭😭#I also saw from the wiki that in the manga he was called Jeanie instead screaming crying throwing up 😭#it looks like it’s read as Jan-bo in Japanese but written as Jeanie in English 🥺#I think the ‘bo’ is like a thing you call babies or small children??? I don’t speak Japanese so I’m 100% guessing #like it’s associated with babies or small children #like ‘akanbo’ or something I might be remembering it wrong #google says akanbo is written as 赤ん坊 #and Jeanie is written as ジャン坊 #the last character is the same so that’s probably correct #anyway #look at his chubby cheeks and the fluffy hair #😭#ILL GIVE YOU ALL THE OMELETTES BB #shingeki no kyojin #jean kirschtein

what-the-fuck-khr’s most popular sky is tsunayoshi! he won with 38.6% out of 10 characters!

#sawada tsunayoshi #khr #katekyo hitman reborn #27 #72 #my shit #manga coloring #manga colouring #khredit #khrgraphics #teehee hi. the winner got a prize congrats #‘most popular’ is generous obviously but I figure that’s about the gist of it anyway!#it’d be nice to do a much longer one #y’know to get a better look at the answers but for now #this is just for fun!!#I also chose a panel to test me!! it’s been a while y’know #so I chose a panel/page I would typically avoid at all costs HAHA so I had to do some work #had to clean him up a bit. fiddle with the shadowing bc of his forehead flame #his hair………….. not fond of but alas #is it my best work ever on planet earth?#absolutely not lmfao. but I’m pleased with it nonetheless at least #additionally I don’t usually add watermarks on my shit #and if I do I do it on Instagram with a different username #but I wanted to for this bc. y’know. obviously #also yes leaving the Japanese characters black was a stylistic choice #didn’t wanna deal with them and fiddling with them next to the flames so…….

I don't see this talked about often in the english side of the fandom, as this tidbit got lost in translation, but:

In the japanese versions for both texts and voice lines in the middle-aged opposites venet, kabu addresses larry with "—kun (くん)" in their second meeting in front of the restaurant. It's a japanese honorific to address someone who is a junior than you, in terms of either age or work experience/status. Inferring from this, kabu may either (1) be slightly older than larry in age (as I think they both have equal years of experience, just that larry happened be slightly superior to kabu in terms of their workplace status because he is also an elite four member), (2) be that friendly and warm as a person that he calls larry with "—kun (くん)" right away in the second part of their event's story, or (3) both.

Take what you will from this, friends! 🫡

#you guys don't know that i'm still STUCK thinking about this long after the event is gone. i'm still freezing when my mind reminds me every #so often that the first thing we hear from the japanese trailer is kazuhiko inoue yelling アオキくん like... oh they're besties already? 😭💖#i wish honorifics and the way a person refers to themselves don't get lost in translation. it actually adds so much depth to the characters #my n5 jlpt ass is already in heaven even with my limited understanding 😭😭😭 one day i will play pokemon games in jp fluently!!!!#anyway yeah. kabu looked at larry and went 'you're my friend now!' even though they don't have to be buddy-buddy for this event :')#and the fact that larry tolerates it (when he's probably addressed with —san all the time) and even grows to enjoy kabu's presence... 🥺#pokemas yaoi is so big-brained. i hope whoever wrote the middle-aged opposites events got a huge raise due to its popularity!!!!#gym leader kabu #elite four larry #gym leader larry #pokemon kabu #pokemon larry #pokemon masters ex #pmex #pokemon masters #pokemas #pokemas spoilers #pmex spoilers #pokemon masters ex spoilers #pokemon masters spoilers #pokemon sword and shield #pokemon swsh #swsh #pokemon scarlet and violet #pokemon scarvio #scarvio #galar #paldea #pasio #silverstreakshipping
