3. , 12. , 13. , 14. , 18. !

ask the mun questions about the muse!

3. If you could change one event in your muse’s life (in their main or canon verse), what would you change?

as much as i want to say "the moment his right arm got injured", i feel like everything that happened was necessary for him to be the person that he is in the canon's present time, so my real answer is nothing, i wouldn't change a thing.

12. What about your muse amuses you?

answered. but also- if i may- and this is cheating ngl because it's only half about tatsuma but anyway-

tatsuma, who is based on sakamoto ryouma, shares a voice actor with 2 other fictional characters based on ryouma (one from renai bakumatsu kareshi, the other from akanesasu sekai de kimi to utau; both are otome games). the funniest part to me imo is the fact that obviously all of them speak in a strong tosa/kochi dialect as the real ryouma did, but the voice actor himself is from tokyo and has stated before that he didn't grow up speaking any regional dialect, yet evidently people liked his performance as tatsuma so much they made him voice 2 more characters like him.

13. What about your muse makes you sad?

mostly how he's treated by the author... i just saw someone made a meme about it recently, but tatsuma was practically irrelevant in the final battle of the series. you could take him out and it wouldn't change much😭 and even throughout the entire series he really was just a comedic relief 90% of the time and barely has any depth in canon... the fact that i managed to give him so much depth based on the crumbs i was given by canon is a goddamn miracle.

some people in the fandom treats his friendship to gintoki, zura, and takasugi as unimportant and i used to be angry about it but now i'm like "no actually... the series never made a really strong argument about it... so i can't even blame them for thinking that..."

14. How would you describe your muse to someone about to meet them, in person, for the first time?

"he's the annoying one with the weird laugh, yeah you'll recognize him as soon as you see him."

18. What aspect of your muse’s personality is most important to you? What aspect of your muse’s personality do you think is most important to them? Is it the same? Why or why not?

to me: his kindness! my god, his kindness. the way he remained kind, and especially kind towards an enemy, even though that exact thing got him severely injured before.

to tatsuma: his cheerfulness and mental strength. seen in how even while he was actively bleeding to death, he prioritized being cheerful and cracking jokes to his comrades, smiling even as takasugi said "as a samurai, you're already dead".

evidently it's not quite the same thing, personally because i think his perspective is a flaw that he doesn't even realize is one. i love his cheerful personality too of course, but i can see it taken to the point of toxic positivity (toxic mainly to himself tbh).

thoughts on bakumatsu: renai bakumatsu kareshi gaiden in 100 words or less:

was it good? lmao no. but this was significantly more Fine than i was expecting a show with a 49% average score to be, i'd call it a more or less serviceable brain-off bakumatsu anime with some time travel shenanigans and an alright twist

special shoutout to whoever made the excellent decision to put takasugi in a slutty little crop top with a boob window btw

[tamanone]

mikishin:

- undead girl murder farce & jp dub of elementary for the sherlocks

- gintama, bakumatsu renai kareshi gaiden, akanesasu sekai de kimi to utau, the time walkers 2 drama cd for the sakamoto ryoumas (and 1 ryouma-adjacent)

ono daisuke: katsugeki touken ranbu, hakuouki, time bokan 24

kaji yuuki: hoozuki no reitetsu & heike monogatari

nakata jouji: peacemaker kurogane & golden kamuy

something about when a v.a gets to voice more than one version of a famous character/historical figure... miki shinichirou has now voiced 2 sherlock holmeses and 4 kinds of sakamoto ryouma. ono daisuke has also voiced sakamoto ryoma in 3 franchises. kaji yuuki voiced minamoto no yoshitsune in 2 different shows. nakata jouji has voiced both a young hijikata toshizou and an old version of him.

Looking at the pretty Bakumatsu Kareshi artwork and comparing it to the Sengoku Romansque one makes me want to cry. The Koiroma artist is actually a well-established anime artist? I don’t know why the artwork in Koiroma seems so bland... 

[saizoswifey]

this new game with the hotties is just in Japanese? and if it is can we expect it to be translated? or should I really start learning Japanese?

Yes, it’s in Japanese and unfortunately I can’t say whether or not it will ever be translated to English. It’s been out for a while now...all of the LIs with the exception of the last two shown have their routes released already.

And I could be wrong, I didn’t really dig much I just skimmed in the App Store..... but I don’t see any of their games having an English version. But who knows, maybe one day!

This game does have an anime though! And a friend just told me they got green lighted for a second season soooo it must be good 👀 and I will probably watch lol. So you can have that at least!

Anyone that has played Renai Bakumatsu Kareshi + has watched ep. 12 of the anime? Spoilers↴

I’m wondering what that light at the end of the episode meant... I haven’t played the game, so at first I thought it was the chronometer again, but my guess is that scene comes from the game’s prologue and that light is when the heroine arrives in their time period??? 😱 I hope I’m not wrong because just the thought that they decided to go with that scene to end the anime makes it so exciting lol Maybe I should expect a S3 with the heroine this time 😜

Ay, so because of the crossover thingy with Ayakoi I ran this game AGAIN and I ended up keep playing...I mean I kinda forgot all about it after I installed it for the Tenka crossover ahaha... 

I chose Kondou because I have this odd interest in him for no reason... The emperor is SUPER tempting but in the end Kondou won... The big bro type is a hit and miss with me, but I’m liking it so far. 

Also I found an announcement for new characters from a few months back, but I guess it’s not implemented yet? Katsu Kaishuu is A+, he’s on my wish list :P
