#can u imagine tho. ranmaru otori

[opalianubis]

conspiracy theory:

tl;dr: Ranmaru Kurosaki, Eiichi Otori, and Eiji Otori are all related. Ranmaru is their half brother

just hear me out ok? great, good, thanks

ok so, we all know how Ranmaru's dad worked himself to death, yea? if not, now u do, yw, moving on

so, what if he didn't actually do that? what if... he faked it?

we know how Ranmaru's hair is black, right? so unless we have any images of his parents, we wont know their hair. so, take this:

Ranmaru's mom's hair: black

Ranmaru's dad's hair: brown

(keep this in mind, ok?)

black is a dominant trait to brown, meaning that when he was born, his mom's traits (lets assume Bb, we know tits all abt what his sister looks like, and his dad - in this case - is bb. punnett squares n shit, fuckin fancy) were dominant over his dads, making his genes Bb. thats unimportant tho

anyways, since we dont have actual info on grey and purple eyes, im just gonna make some bs up and guess grey is dominant over purple. mom has grey eyes, dad has purple. mom's eyes won out, yadda yadda etc etc

also, since Ranmaru is half Japanese, half Italian-American, and the Italian-American is only from his mom, that means his dad is Japanese. this is smth to remember

ok so, Ranmaru's sister is born, hes born, idk who was first and who was second but there, theyre born. now, dad - who was an idol and made this conglomerate as a way to fight his rival that beat him (familiar story, anyone?) - doesnt rly,, love his wife. business family. not exactly love family. so, with an unknown mistress, he runs off and has two other sons behind his wife's back. which two?

Eiichi and Eiji

so, theyre born now and are being raised by a sorta semi single mother bc dad has to work in his business and cant do too much w them

then the business... gets sabotaged. it starts failing

everything piles up. its so fast, so shocking, he cant do anything to fix it. he cant defeat his rival like this, he cant! so, he fakes his death, and in doing so, runs off to join his mistress, leaving his son, daughter, and wife all alone with his debt that his son takes on to save his family from

he didnt want ppl knowing hes mr Kurosaki, so he takes on his wife's surname instead, Otori. in doing so, he also comes up w a fake name, and builds up to become better than Shining Saotome in a new way

if he cant beat him one way,

then Raging Otori, father of Ranmaru Kurosaki and Eiichi and Eiji Otori, will beat him at his own game

also, family reunions are weird as hell, but thats that bit
