"You, the Fury of the Sea, have so many things to scream, so many revenge to take and so many suffering. Yet, you're staying serene, not because King of Gods' commands you harsly but a Child of Night asks you kindly."

I do not know why but I like to draw Poseidon crying. I'm an angst girlie!

Several years ago, I came across a video by JackCopperZ who made a crossover between Cuphead and Touhou. I was frustrated because I thought it was just a teaser for a big video, but there was never a follow-up. So, I decided to make the crossover myself.

It was quite fun to redraw them in a cartoon style. I also tried to do it between characters who have at least something in common.

Don't blame me, these drawings are from a long time ago so they aren't very good...

TouhouHead part 1 (DLC coming soon)

One of the most fascinating things about Furuya Rei is how deeply unsettling his Amuro persona actually is, at least to anyone who truly knows him. I would argue that Amuro is even creepier than Bourbon because while Bourbon is a cold-blooded killer, at least with him, what you see is what you get. There's no darker side hiding behind Bourbon's mask because Bourbon is supposed to be evil.

But Amuro Tooru is meant to come off as (at least mostly) harmless. To anyone who only knows Amuro, it's easy to like him. He's friendly, charming, handsome, smart, maybe a bit dorky, and he's good with kids. Add the fact that he's also a customer service worker, and you've got yourself a man that most people would be completely fine with letting their guard down around - which is precisely what makes him so dangerous.

Because at the end of the day, Amuro is just a mask that Rei created to help further his mission. And Rei, as we all know, is the very opposite of harmless. We've seen time and time again that he has no problem with potentially destroying innocent lives if it benefits him in some way. None of the charming friendliness that Amuro Tooru displays is sincere because Furuya Rei has almost no one left alive in the world that he genuinely cares about. Arguably, the only people left alive that Rei cares about are Akai, Conan, Kazami, and maybe the Detective Boys (granted, Akai is more in the sense that it's impossible to hate someone and not care about them). And even then, Rei would have no problem with screwing them over for the sake of his mission and letting them get themselves out of trouble. Sure, he might hesitate a little if it was the DB since they're children, but he would ultimately still be able to do it, and he would leave it up to Conan (and Haibara) to save them.

I mean, he would fuck Akai's life up for a Klondike bar, but that's beside the point.

When it comes to everyone else, though, Rei couldn't care less about any of them. He would kill or at least majorly fuck them over for his own benefit in a heartbeat, and more to the point, he would care very little about ensuring that they had a way to save themselves or had someone that could save them. If they do, great, if not, well, sucks to be them, but it was for the greater good. At any given time, anyone who knows him as the cheerful, dorky, nice guy (no, not that type of nice guy) Amuro - Ran, Sonoko, Azusa, Hattori, the Poirot customers who keep fawning over him, anyone - could find themselves on the wrong end of one of his schemes, and the odds of him feeling any remorse if they die or have their lives permanently ruined in some way are slim to none.

TL;DR: Amuro Tooru is the type of guy who pretends to be a friend and lures people into a false sense of security while holding a knife to their back, and that, at least to me, is far more disturbing than a man who's just an outright ruthless criminal.

[detectiveagathaau]

A role-swap alternative universe of Detective Conan.

This is an alternative take on Detective Conan series, where it swaps almost every character's role while maintaining some of their personality and creating new ideas for them.

CHARACTER SWAPS:

Shinichi/Conan ⇄ Ran/Agatha

Mouri Kogoro ⇄ Prof. Agasa

Ayumi → Mitsuhiko

Mitsuhiko → Genta

Genta → Ayumi

Sonoko ⇄ Kyogoku

Megure ⇄ Midori

Takagi ⇄ Sato

Heiji ⇄ Kazuha

Kobayashi ⇄ Rumi

Kaito Kid ⇄ Akako Koizumi

Shiratori ⇄ Yumi

Chiba ⇄ Naeko

Akai Shuichi/Subaru Okiya ⇄ Jodie Starling/Jodie Saintemilion

Miyano Shiho/Sherry/Ai Haibara → ???/Gin/(to be revealed)

???/Gin/(to be revealed) → The Silver Fox leader/French 75

Vodka ⇄ Shiho Miyano & Akemi Miyano (both Shiho and Akemi are gonna be normal BO agents like Vodka, while repurposing the character "Lady in black" from Ep. 129 to take Gin's role)

Dr. Araide ⇄ Chris/Vermouth

Hidemi Hondou/Kir ⇄ Mary Sera

Masumi Sera ⇄ Eisuke Hondou

Rei Furuya/Amuro/Bourbon ⇄ Hiromitsu Morofushi/Scotch

Hakuba → Kaito & Aoko

Eri Kisaki ⇄ Yukiko Kudo (their jobs only switched)

Momiji ⇄ Okita

Kazami ⇄ Iori

Azusa ⇄ Sakurako

Nakamori ⇄ Superintendent Hakuba

(These are up to change, there's more characters to cover).

Notes:

Feedback is pretty much appreciated. It is still work-in-progress, but maybe one day I can make more detailed profiles for each character. You're welcome in making any takes and fanworks of my swap AU, no permission required. Credits is appreciated.

Not planning to rewrite the entire series as a fanfic but with characters swapped, sorry.

There's something I didn't understand when I saw S1. I don't Even remember if Shun's grandfather was given a name but Shiori was his daughter-in-law or his daughter?

as far as i know, shun's grandfather has not been given a name. as for whether shun's grandfather is shiori's father or father-in-law, there isn't really much (as far as i know!) to indicate whether it's one or the other. grandpa kazami refers to her as "shiori-san" but apparently, it's not uncommon for parents to use the -san honorific with their children.

i figure that her death would've had a greater impact on him if she was his daughter, so i'm more inclined to believe that she married into the family.

the word 祖父 (sofu) is used to refer to shun's grandfather in the japanese wikipedia and while it is a general term for grandfather in japanese, it means paternal grandfather in chinese.

i wouldn't call this conclusive evidence though lol but personally, i believe he's shun's paternal grandfather, just like how dr. gehabich is alice's paternal grandfather.

TL;DR: In which Rei has constant nightmares but always had someone to cuddle him to sleep. He realizes that he and Akai aren't on that level but he's the only one available and Rei doesn't want to have a panic attack til morning. So yeah.

Cuddle Bug AU:

- Rei always had someone to cuddle him to sleep after nightmares

- the first time was when he dreamt of being abandoned by his parents, then woke up crying in his bunk bed

- one of the older kids was awake, calmed him down and hugged him to sleep because she knew what it was like

- Rei stuck with her all the way until she got adpoted

- (later Rei ran into her again while in the Academy and they kept in touch since)

- this trend continues with various people he could depend on at the time: his caretaker, some of his foster guardians, sometimes Akemi and Elena when he was in their clinic, and obviously, the zero squad.

- most notably date and hiro because date's massive and gives good hugs and hiro is cuddle size and rei feels safe with them

- blah blah blah, cannon happens, blah blah blah

- hes destroyed everytime each and every one of them got killed, and eventually he would either curl up into a ball after a nightmare having a silent panic attack til morning, or just goes to the closest cuddle buddy he has

- which most of the time is hiro, because hes like the only guy closest to him that hasnt died yet

- on days where he couldnt reach hiro rei would just go to his first cuddle buddy in the middle of the night and she'd hug him to sleep that way

- (she never complains, she has a boyfriend who's in the military and knows what kind of nightmares it gives people)

- (they got engaged and her fiance found out about rei, and was extremely understanding and became another one of his cuddle buddies too)

- (rei feels guilty of course, since hes intruding on their home and personal space, but they honestly dont mind. fiance guy was an only child and never had a sibling, and obvs fiance girl saw him as a sibling.)

- this continues trend continues even in the BO, and surprisingly, Curacao and Kir got added to the cuddle buddy list

- (Vermouth is an honorary member, depending on her mood)

- but rei still sticks with hiro most of the time tho

- (btw he told his now-married cuddle buddies that hes going undercover and he wont be able to reach them for their safety)

- (their worried of course, but rei asked kazami to keep them in the loop and kazami was like, - 'my best boss/friend actually finding a healthy coping mech and has someone to depend on? fuck yeah ofc i would.')

- rye was confused as to why scotch would always worry over bourbon whenever he's away on a mission when bourbon is the guy youd never worry about

- but then rye stumbled upon bourbon hiding in a corner when scotch's not home, eyes wide, shaking and crying silently and it physically pains him to watch it

- so yeah rye is added to the cuddle buddy list but under the emergency only category that featured giant, bold, red letters with underline and italics

- which puts him under even Curacao, Vermouth and Kir but rei actually trusts them to some degree and hes confident he can outrun them for a while

- but rye? the guy that could put a bullet to your head from ten skyscapers away?

- yeah no thanks

- Rei's utterly crushed when hiro offed himself

- look hes smart, he knows that angle the bullet was in couldnt have hit hiro from where ryes standing, but he just lost his best friend and closest cuddle buddy and somebody just happened to be a convient scape goat

- Rei runs to couple cuddle buddies to cry after that, and the two of them plus their 5 year old twins cuddled with Rei in the family convo pit thats converted into a giant pillow fort

- timeskip to current timeline

- the detective boys are added to the cuddle buddy list, so is ai (she has Rei in her list too, cuz they both understood what it feels like (plus theyve made up a long time ago)), masumi and ran (kogoro didnt like it at first and outright kicked our poor boy out when ran hugged him, but got torn into a new one by ran, conan and our cuddle family. added to the list soon after when rei came to find ran but she was away and he couldnt watch this baby-faced kid having a panic attack because hey, dad senses.)

- time skip to a few months later

- rei and akai are basically very reluctant allies (on rei's side) and very much made up besties (on akai's)

- FBI and PSB issued stakeout

- surprise surprise nightmare strikes again

- so rei had no other option but to use akai because he isnt in the mood to have a panic attack til morning, nor could he afford to

- was gonna criticize akai for being a shit cuddler but unfortunately, our tall and thin as a stick boy here was actually on date's-level of comfortness

- so yeah, rei came by to him more often since he's just geographically closest to him, and he knows he cant always bother the mouris or agasa and ai during the night since the kids have school

- akai on the other hand doesnt go to school, even if okiya subaru was required too

- and rei basically moved in every night

- yeah they are practically dating by now

- i mean, rei taking over the cooking since he insisted on thanking akai and would not condem himself to eating okiya subaru's barely edible curry 24/7?

- akai buying extra pillows and blankets for rei since he knows our blondie still gets cold at night?

- rei making coffee for akai in the morning?

- akai dragging a dusty old futon from the kudou's back closet for rei to sleep in, plus washing and cleaning it during the day for him?

- rei having a bag of work clothes over at the kudou mansion since he lives there at night and needs to go to work in the morning?

- akai dognapping haro because he read that dogs get lonely at night if they dont have their owners nearby on reddit and because he knows that rei always worries about the white fluff ball even when he cant think straight?

- them both getting each gifts on holidays and their birthdays?

- eventually cuddling in front of the tv and watching a show or movie together while spooning with a bowl of popcorn in the middle of the night?

- cheek kisses? forehead kisses? hair ruffles? courtesy of akai?

- rei basically cleaning the house from head to toe one night because he deemed akai's sniper nest to be uninhabbitable?

- comfort foods for each other well stocked in the fridge? borrowing the others coats and jackets to sleep in when the other's not home?

- sorry guys youre basically married now.

[retrosofa]

To commemorate Cutie Honey's 50th anniversary, I wanted to post trivia for all 25 episodes. We'll start this week with the first episode: "The Black Claw Grips The Heart."

Screenwriter: Masaki Tsuji

Art Director: Mataharu Urata

Animation Director: Shingo Araki

Director: Tomoharu Katsumata

In the early drafts Honey Kisaragi was originally Honey Tachibana. Honey’s finalized surname name, “Kisaragi” (如月) is a traditional name for February in the Japanese calendar. It refers to the seasonal “changing of clothes.” The name "Honey" comes from the American TV series Honey West.

Honey was voiced by Eiko Masuyama, who would reprise this role a few times over the years, notably in the Re: Cutie Honey audio drama and the Playstation game, Little Witching Mischiefs. She also had a guest spot in Cutey Honey Flash as Dr. Kisaragi’s old friend, Dr. Mitsuko Kanzaki.

St. Chapel Academy is located in Okutama, a mountainous area that’s about an hour and a half away from central Tokyo. St. Chapel itself was most likely inspired or at least named after the real life royal chapel, Sainte-Chapelle in Paris, France. The hymn the students sing during Mass in these early episodes is “Come, Thou Almighty King.”

The freckle-faced girl who stands next to Honey during Mass is her best friend and roommate, Natsuko Aki. Although she’s almost never referred to by her full name but rather “Nat-chan.” Her first name is in reference to natsu or “summer” while aki means “autumn.” In the original manga she is depicted as having pigtails rather than a bob cut and doesn’t have freckles. Natsuko’s anime design was modeled after an unnamed girl who appeared briefly in the Devilman manga.

Natsuko was voiced by Rihoko Yoshida, who’s best known for voicing the titular character in Little Witch Megu, Maria Grace Fried in UFO Robo Grendizer, and Michiru Saotome in Getter Robo. Yoshida would also voice Panther Zora in the 1995 PC-FX video game, Cutey Honey FX. Noriko Watanabe (Sister Jill, Mami) also voiced Natsuko occasionally for whenever Rihoko Yoshida was unavailable.

Honey’s goofy teacher Ms. Alphonne Louis Steinbeck III is based on a male character from Go Nagai’s Kikkai-kun manga. That same Alphonne also served as the basis for Akira Fudo’s teacher in the Devilman TV series. 

Ms. Alphonne was voiced by the late Noriko Tsukase, who had previously voiced Mr. Alphonne’s wife and son in Devilman. Although Ms. Alphonne appears in every other animated Honey series, this is the only version where she is voiced by a woman.

During the early production stages Seiji Hayami was known as Shun Kazami and was described as "falling in love with Honey, despite knowing she’s an android." He would also have a goofy little sister named Zuuko, who would question if she was really related to her handsome older brother. When the series details were finalized, Seiji became more of a comic relief character and his romantic chemistry with Honey was downplayed. 

Seiji was voiced by Katsuji Mori, who would go on to voice Dr. Kisaragi in Cutie Honey Universe.

Katsuji Mori revealed he had ad-libbed Seiji's lines during Honey's first transformation. Originally, Seiji had no dialogue in that scene.

Honey's motorcyclist form is called "Hurricane Honey" which is possibly an homage to Shotaro Ishinomori's Cyborg 009. The lead character, Joe Shimamura, is sometimes a professional car racer who goes by the nickname "Hurricane Joe."

Seiji refers to Hurricane Honey as kaminari musume (カミナリ娘) which translates to something like “thunder girl.” He’s actually referring to the kaminari zoku (カミナリ族) or “thunder tribes”, Japanese motorcycle gangs who were known for their loud and rowdy modified motorcycles.

Sister Jill is the manager of Panther Claw's Japanese branch and Panther Zora's younger sister. The "Sister" part of her name is likely a reference to a religious sister, circling back to Honey attending a Catholic school. In the original series pitch, she was known as Sister Zora.

Jill is voiced by the late Noriko Watanabe, who also voiced Junpei's girlfriend, Mami.

Black Claw’s name comes from the original series proposal, which described Panther Claw’s soldiers as being color coded. Potential opponents for Honey would’ve included Black Claw, Scarlet Claw, Cobalt Claw and Gold Claw. Each would have possessed a specific skill or element, for example, “Scarlet Claw” would’ve possessed fire powers. For whatever reason the whole color coded aspect was dropped but “Black Claw” was still used as the name for Honey’s first real adversary.

According to Cutey Honey Roman Album published by Tokuma Shoten in 1981, Honey's childhood memories are artificial. They were produced by Dr. Kisaragi because he wanted Honey to have childhood memories like any other human girl.

Dr. Takeshi Kisaragi was originally known as Dr. Seiji Tachibana in the original series proposal. In the original manga Dr. Kisaragi looks noticeably younger, has black hair, no glasses and a goatee instead of a mustache.

Originally, Honey was only going to transform once or twice during the first episode. Tomoharu Katsumata (director for episode one) requested that Honey use all of her main seven forms.

Some of the choreography from Honey and Black Claw’s fight is based on sequences from the Abashiri Family manga, specifically when the lead character Kikunosuke battles against teachers from Paradise Academy.

Junpei is based on Kichiza Abashiri from Go Nagai's The Abashiri Family manga. Kichiza is the youngest son of the Abashiri family and is a master of explosives. Junpei was voiced by Kazuko Sawada.

It’s probably worth noting Honey and Junpei are the only two characters to appear in every episode of Cutie Honey.

We'll take a look at episode two next week!

[sunshinemoonrx]

but uh yeah we watched (rewatched for me) KR First/Next. Y'know what I like them more this time around. Still don't love them! But they're, y'know, they're whatever. Fundamentally they are extremely good at making me go "wow! I love it when kamen rider does a big kick" which is the main thing

The First definitely feels more like The Big-Screen Kamen Rider Reboot Movie, it presents itself more theatrically, it's got flourishes like the Miyauchi cameo, a snippet of the original OP and the Dr. Shinigami footage. Unfortunately, it also hews too close to the US superhero movie "everything revolves around how much the hero loves and wants to save the pretty girl [who will not even be mentioned in the sequel]" for me to find it much fun, and also it keeps cutting away to a completely different romance movie, which also isn't...bad, I guess, but doesn't link up at all until the very end.

The Next, meanwhile, feels more like a "let's do whatever the fuck" outing to stick on late-night TV and the DVD release...instead of a bombastic title card it just dives right into the ghost-slasher-movie subplot which...I also didn't feel super-engaged watching but that might just be because I'm a little baby (for as much as I dig the Rider body-fuckery and lonely-cyborg stuff, which for the record The First especially did really well!), but at least was actually part of the story this time. The tone does proceed like that, and I find the Inoue-isms the more entertaining kind here; instead of having a Hollywood Love Interest to fight over now Hongo is gay and pining and Ichimonji is homophobic and trying to have as much sex as possible before he dies. There's shots of Kazami Shiro showering moodily, bare Shocker Rider ass, and a lady kaijin topless with her helmet on. Also, Scissors-Jaguar is there.

But yeah they both have what are still probably the best Rider 1/2 suits (although I'll give Shin the coat-over-suit look as the best design, maybe), I love how textured and bolted-together they are. And there's truly incredible action going all-in on wires and somersaults, and frankly maybe Next didn't have less budget but just blew it all on that big sequence at the end where they have a big chase on trucks and cars and motorbikes flying-kicking each other off the road, then crash into a restaurant, then proceed to knock each other through every wall, floor and bar in the place until it's completely destroyed. So that's pretty good. Shame about the muddy brown filter over everything in Next. 2007!

Anyway no wonder Hongo lost his university post after First with a thesis like "water is alive". That's not correct man

"Because Nyx didn't give birth him, herself. He was born from Erebus and Nyx. He doesn't have bright apperiance like his other siblings but he has a bright personalty. No wonder Davidus is Sea's favorite Star."

[random fact, Erebus and Nyx are actually symbolise darkness but their children are symbolise bright things.]

I knew this gonna end out of game style but I love this too. Just like I thought, it's one of my favorite now.

I added so many details. If you can look closely to silver part on purple fabric, you can see his children's patterns. Love that part.

"I can't go back Yuuka. I failed her."

An image of a girl with red hair and bob haircut popped up in your head. Her smile, although nervous, was full of enthusiasm. This girl whom you met in the middle of your grand escape from Jigokou has meant so much to you, gave your life a whole new meaning, that all humans weren't vile after all. And yet, you contributed to one of her greatest fears,

The fear of being left alone by a loved one

You had no idea what you were getting into when you fought the motherboard of Makai. None of you did.

The battle was ferocious, it was certain that one of the four was going to die. In a great act of bravery, you offered yourself to deliver the final blow. You said you bitter goodbyes to your dear apprentice who you treated like a younger sister, your own child almost. This girl, now blonde was a sobbing mess. Her heart was obviously shattered to smithereens watching you go. And the cherry on top? She thought she failed you. She thought she was the one at fault for not being strong enough. First failing to protect her childhood friend from a fire, her younger brother from her bastard of a verbally abusive father, and now you.

And yet here you are. Unscaved, non-bloodied, and not gone like you told her you would be. Hiding out in the garden of Sun.

You sigh as you hide your shame by drinking more sake. It did nothing to help ease the guilt, though. But to be fair, can spirits really get drunk? Your Flower Yokai friend sat by you quietly. Although she said she could care less about your personal dilemma, you could see the look of concern in her quick glances to you.

You take another sip, admiring the Sunflower field accompanied by the night sky.

What a twist(Sarcasm).  Side note, this fic does not exist at all.  If any of you want to write a fanfic based on this, which I’m sure someone will, I challenge you to incorporate these pictures and try to make it fit the title at the end of the URL.

Wet Floor Interview

In the booklet inserted in the Splatune 2 album, there's an interview with the band Wet Floor, which has yet to be translated to English...well, until now. 

Keep reading below to see my translation, or check out the google docs link to it here!

It’d be exciting to see the music scene become colorful again

Just when we think we understand them, they get away from us. Wet Floor is that kind of band. They don't fit inside the box. They don't do what we'd expect. And yet, before we knew it, their music had become deeply ingrained in our hearts. Their latest album "Inkoming!", which has a completely different atmosphere from their previous album "Color Rush", is no exception. I asked the five members about their thoughts on the album.

○Interviewer: Nijimasuya ⏺

⏺This album feels so colorful and changing in a way that I never get tired of. Not only that, I thought that it was overflowing with freshness, as if it were a piece cut from the "now" of Wet Floor and Inkopolis Square.

EVERYONE: Thank you!

MIZOLE (Vo. G): Yeah, for example, I love old music that was popular before I was born, yet I take the stance that "I take from this era I am living now, so I should give back too," which is what I do when I play with Wet Floor.

TSUMABUSHI (B): I mean, that's really all you can do, isn't it.

⏺At the same time, I was reminded of how "twisted" Wet Floor is.

KAZAMI (Dr): (Laughs)

MIZOLE: As far as we're concerned, we don't mean to be twisted.

RYAN (Vo. G): Oh but you're so twisted. You play chords that are totally different from mine and Tsumabushi's!

KAGI (Synth): I guess I want to create music that is like "a picture that cannot be fully understood at first glance".

⏺This might be a bit of a nasty question, but it could be called "not catchy.”

MIZOLE: I wonder if that will happen.

⏺At least it's not the "straight-up rascalliness" that was sweeping Inkopolis a few years ago.

MIZOLE: Ah, yeah, that's the kind of thing I wanted to do.  Those days were filled with an unbridled "excitement to see the world for the first time" kind of feeling. Now we’ve let it seep into our bodies, and our output is a kind of a "determination to keep on sharing it with like-minded people." I don't know if I'm putting this well.

⏺I see. For example, when you guys covered the iconic Squid Squad song "Now or Never", which seems to be a symbol of those days, you have a big group of people chanting "Yeah..." in a laid-back B-melody.

RYAN: That's right. We changed the chord progression there too, from the original song.

KAGI: That's our "feeling" right now, too.

⏺Or in "Inkoming!", you stir up some excitement in the first bars (spla spla la o nyalo/ink o sink fazaro), but the chorus (yuganashoshiyasei/ nigochunowanowanasa), shows off a little "longing for others".

MIZOLE: Yeah, that chorus is something we wouldn't have been able to sing in the past. To be honest, I was hesitant while writing it. But when you're in a live setting and you're getting excited with the audience, all that hesitation just fades away.

⏺By the way, what is the difference with the version of "Inkoming! (Cloud Demo)" that was recorded at the same time?

KAGI: I initally wrote this riff and uploaded it to the cloud. And then everyone else did whatever they wanted with it at home. First, Tsumabushi added in a slapping bass line.

TSUMABUSHI: In the end, I held back a lot on the bass lines. I didn't hold back on "Rip Entry" though. (Laughs)

⏺It's a four-on-the-floor tune that starts with a very "springy" guitar. The weighty rhythm section feels great, and makes the floor sway vertically at concerts. It's not just in this song, but the way Tsumabushi and Kazami mesh with each other is unbelievable.

MIZOLE: Those two practice in secret like crazy.

RYAN: Even on days when we go to the studio, they start practicing the rhythm line a couple hours early.

KAZAMI: Hey the songs are hard! It’s fun though.

⏺What was the most difficult song for you two to play?

KAZAMI: It's definitely "Don't Slip". That riff is in such a weird time signature! Surprising that Ryan wrote that riff.

RYAN: When I was working on it, I didn't realize that it had an odd time signature, but when I recorded it on my computer, I thought, "Huh? Something’s weird about it...'' (laughs)

TSUMABUSHI: The drum 'n bass in "Undertow" was pretty tough too. The break comes so fast.

⏺Are the other songs built off of a riff?

KAGI: Basically, yes. Someone uploads a riff, and then everyone adds to it.

KAZAMI: The only difference is in "Endolphin Surge", where all of a sudden, Mizole made the melody first instead. That's the intro.

MIZOLE: Tentatively titled, "Youth.” (laughs)

RYAN: That's intense.

⏺It certainly starts off with a kind of embarrassingly classic feel, but it doesn't stop there, as what happens after that is dizzying. That's what makes Wet Floor so unique. And that unstoppableness isn't just in the songs; as I said at the beginning of this interview, I think it can be said for the variety of the song’s musicality too. The album itself has a completely different mood than your previous works.

MIZOLE: Are you bored of it? What is that "what we haven't done yet?” That’s what I'm always looking for when working on the next song.

KAGI: It's just like in Turf Wars. "I've already inked this place! Is there any place I haven't yet?” (laughs)

⏺Maybe there's another band that will ‘ink you back’ even more.

MIZOLE: Wouldn’t that be super interesting? It’d be exciting to see the music scene become more colorful like that again.
