For the character break down: Shark from Zexal
How I feel about this character: Shark is very endearing! He's such a tsundere, but with the power of Yūma, he reveals the soft and caring nature of his. QAQ He's the best school bully, lmao. I also enjoy his style and the fact that he rides a runner. (I'm sure people call it a motorcycle, but in my head, he's a big Turbo duel fan.) Yo, have you seen him smile? 🥺🥺🥺
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Yūma and Kite. I can get into fan stuff of him with either or, but in my head, all three are dating. You're just catching them at different times, lmaolololol.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Durbe.
My unpopular opinion about this character: Can't think of anything controversial because I don't see the ZEXAL tag often, but I guess it'll be that I love Shark's dub name. REGINALD KASTLES is one of the best dub names in YGO. I just love the unexpectedness and the jarring nature of the whole name. He sounds so regal, which makes sense because his family is wealth so I'm thinking old money. It's right up there in dub names with legends like CHAZZ PRINCETON and THEODORE HAMILTON. 😂
One thing I wish would happen/had happened to this character in canon: More quality time with Rio and/or the rest of the former Barians. I just want that slice of life, you know? Pretty please?
Send me another ask my way! I've seen all the series. 👀

||The popular Incubus musician||
~~Reserved for @within-the-resort~~
"So boring. How long are we going to be waiting?" A voice said seeing a few demons worried.
"Now now, I'm sure we will be there soon. Just wait a bit longer." the driver said but heard a sigh from the popular musician. Tadao Hashimoto, a incubus ghoul was sitting in his limo looking at the window. He was told about some thing but he was only bored knowing this was going to be another long meeting when getting there. Oh well, he just hopes it was worth the time for it.

i loooooove your re-imagining of rellana as a gorgeous masc lesbian who's got a little crush on marika she's SO real. i wish we could have gotten a cinematic for her and romina v_v
thank you! and yeah i wish we had more interaction with her and Romina (tbh im still kinda confused about what's Romina deal... Messmer and his army burned down her church, but now she's left alone to tend to the Church and guard the path to the sealing tree? who was she before she embraced the rot?? i can't seem to place her in any of the existing factions at all)
#ask#anon#reply#like with the red bears and the highlander clan i can draw a connection to Godfrey's possible origin#Midra and the frenzy flame + the dragon cult are pretty self-explanatory#cerulean coast & sword of light & darkness point to a two Numen factions of light (Marika's ppl) / dark (the ones in Eternal City)#like for now i can fit almost all details of LoS into respective factions from the base game... but Romina eludes me lol#probably because the rot in the base game already confuses me

Haven't finished SEVENS or caught up to GO RUSH! but I've seen all eight series and S0, watched all three movies, and even read the manga spin-off. I've written fic for each series at least once. 🙂 (Save for YGO TCG, but that pretty much never comes up in convo.)
kind of related to the post I made earlier abt how many ygo eps/movies there are, I do wonder how many ygo fans have actually seen ALL of the series, or just like, a few? or even Just One? I know a lot of ppl have seen JUST dm, but how many people have just seen one of the spinoffs and NOT dm? or how many ppl have watched out of ‘order’ and watched a random spinoff first? (even tho I think any of the series work p well as stand alones…)

Yusei fudo 🔥
Special award for @saltiestcoconut because they humor me so much 🥺🥺🥺🥺
How I feel about this character: Yo, he's perfect. 🥺🥺🥺 I love him so much—his character design itself makes me weep because boy, do I love star motifs and his got the character 'hoshi' in his name. 😭 That's just so endearing and sweet, and his Stardust Dragon is just perfect for him. They were made for each other, omgs.
But to be completely honest, I struggle to write this guy. He gives so much but also so little at the same time, and there's just so much about him to fill out because he's quiet and awkward and cool. I really would love to hear about how I write Yūsei, but feedback is hard to get because I don't draw a lot of readers, lmao. I just hope I don't make him boring, even though post-series, I imagine him living a rather peaceful and quiet life. The guy is everything I'm not—STEM, talented, reserved—and not even my love for him can help me as much as I like. QwQ. He's not the bestest written Yūtag, but despite that, he is still my favoritest Yūtag. I think Yūsei is pretty unique in that he's a middle child, lmao. It makes him a little relatable when many people say he's not because he's so perfect. (It's fine, he can be perfect; have you not seen his brothers??)
Anyway, in short, I love Fudō Yūsei with all of my heart, and he's honestly the first reason I dove so hard into YGO. 5D's was the first of the series I watched I think, which was good because otherwise, I would be into Zexal, and it would've all over for you guys. xD /J
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Jack and Crow—KIZUNASHIPPING FOR THE WIN. Also, Kalin and Bruno.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Jack and Crow, lol. Sherry. Akiza.
My unpopular opinion about this character: FUDŌ YŪSEI FUCKS.
I know people tend to headcanon Yūsei ace, and while being ace makes him interesting, sure, being horny makes him hilarious. At least to me, and so, when I write Yūsei, he's the kind of guy who rarely say no to sex and is pretty straightforward about it. ("May we have the sex please?") I'm not going to lie: making Yūsei horny actually helped me write him more comfortably because he's so fun to write like that, lmao. He is actually the active cause of chaos sometimes instead of always being the straight man. He annoys and exasperates Jack and Crow at times. There is other things in his life that interests him outside of runners and engineering. His perfectness breaks for a second because his desires have driven him to embarrassing actions, and more moments like that start breaking through. It helped me develop him more as well, lol, so nowadays, he comes off more like a cool coworker I got to know better through his wild and stupid stories, half of which are his fault, but also by talking about his family. What a guy.✨
One thing I wish would happen/had happened with this character in canon: That Yūsei himself says he fu—
Send me an ask! 👀 I've watched all the series.

Is the renkaza a crackship?
nope! on ao3, they're the third biggest kny ship and the biggest kyojuro ship, actually--not that popularity automatically means a ship can't be crack? hm.
the definition of crackship is debateable lol but to me they're not cracky 'cuz the things akaza was saying during their mugen train fight and akaza's human backstory provide a lot of give in terms of connection points to kyojuro.
they're a ship for all the people who love enemies/rivals-to-lovers plots, and ships that involve a lot of physical fighting and/or searching for humanity, which are some of my fave things to look for haha. they can also just be deeply convoluted and toxic when romantically involved, which is its own brand of fun! (tho i personally tend to look for stuff that ends more wholesomely. angst with a happy ending my beloved. 💞)
i will say that while they're not a crackship, the au's where akaza just fucks off completely (like my au comic haha) or where kyo goes all-in on being a demon right away can come off cracky, but i think that's less "crackship" and more "crack taken seriously".
i hope this makes sense!
#rei replies#renkaza#akaren#kny#if there are two people fighting and one of them says 'I WANT TO FIGHT YOU FOREVER' i am one HUNDRED percent shipping them#the minute something like that is said they are already making out in my mind#ur so perfect kyojuro! u have to live forever so we can fight all the time kyojuro!#let me turn you into a demon so we can get married and cut off each others' arms forever kyojuro!#akaza was soooooo down bad#on the other side of it there's kyo forcing himself to be a pillar at all times. everyone looks up to him. he is always strong.#'SET YOUR HEART ABLAZE' he exclaims to his tsuguko and the slayers that all look to him for inspiration and guidance.#'my heart must be ablaze' he tells himself after the hundredth reprimand from the father who failed him#clutching onto his burning passionate heart so that his little brother will never see the way he crumbles on the inside.#no one should see him as anything less than the hashira he must be in his father's stead.#no one can see him weak--but for the demon that's already cut him to the quick and yet continues to insist that his strength is perfection.#and deeply empathetic kyojuro can do nothing but hope when he sees how akaza picks over his food and dogs at his heels asking for a fight.#idk there's a lot there. i feel like kyo can be ugly with akaza because he doesn't have to be perfect in front of a demon.#and like i mentioned earlier: akaza is nothing if not completely down bad for the flame hashira.#i digress

Kek, I actually wrote a fic for my headcanon: KC's Best Kept Secret. :)
Something silly that I realized makes me really happy is different people's interpretations of how Kaiba likes his coffee. It literally gives me so much serotonin. Tell me your thoughts on the matter! I need to hear them! ❤️❤️❤️

god damn i do not post often but can i talk about intentionality for a second?? one second please
i'm gonna be talking about bg3 but this really applies to any fandom space. people will, surface-level, agree that a Black character is not getting enough content compared to their white counterparts because it's. obvious . take wyll, who is several hours behind on voiced lines compared to other origins despite being one of the original five (before they added karlach and whiteified her too but that's another post). it's hard to deny cold hard facts
but then instead of engaging in content that uplifts Black characters and creators, they'll go right back to pumping out more and more content of just their white faves. on its own, it's not actively harmful, but here's what the implication is, whether they acknowledge it or not: yes wyll has less in-game content, yes his writing didn't get the attention it deserved, therefore i don't like him as much. it only perpetuates wyll's lack of content by contributing to his sidelining in fandom spaces
what i would love for fans who claim to be allies to do is to step out of the comfort zone of their initial favorites (which can, in fact, be biased!) and start pursuing content centering Black characters with intentionality. like all things, anti-racism (actively pushing back against racism rather than simply "Not Being Racist") takes practice and effort. you can't really agree with us that wyll needs more content, then in the same breath say that it's because of that that he's not interesting to you . the point was right in front of you doing a jig and you still missed it
#bg3#wyll#wyll ravengard#this isnt even including people who didnt notice that wyll had less content in the first place#which is. a very damning admission. so you werent paying Any attention to him...? at all....? its obvious even on a first playthrough tf#i had to physically stop myself from saying specific white boy names in the main post bc i knew it would just be fanning the flames#and thats not productive. as much as i hate to admit it.#anyway we all know why halsin is so much more popular than wyll. the white man with as much personality as a cardboard cutout#ITS HARD TO APPRECIATE HIM WHEN HES 1) boring and 2) part of the reason wyll got less content bc adding him meant less time for the others#if people start things in the replies im deleting this post if im being honest. this needed to be said but#i am not in the habit of arguing with strangers on the internet and i am not starting now#tyto speaks#man i didnt even mention how white side characters with maybe 5 min total of screentime get so much fan content .#while wyll a whole ORIGIN character gets left out of party art and either infantilized or villianized beyond the point of recognition

He just had to do it to em
I knew it was coming at some point. And yet here i stand. Hands folded with moccasins on my feet and an awful sock tan-line.
Maybe i should start putting this BJG into backgrounds of each chapter and let people try to find him lol
Maybe i should only do it once. To keep the intrigue up…
Yeah…
Yeah I’ll do that…
Thanks for the ask!

does lando have a bit of the “ambiguous euro accent” thing maybe? sth about his accent registers as non native to me but maybe thats just him forgetting basic nouns lol (i say this with love)
lol yes ollie is honestly a bit of a mini lando (figuratively. inb4 188cm) in that regard, ik the sharl comparisons are more convenient since he's ferraripilled but when you look at personality and online/fan presence and jr narratives there are sooo many more similarities to lando and even oscar imo 🤷♀️
sorry this was completely not the question at all LOL. anyway lando's accent is super fascinating but i'm also hesitant to say anything definitive because y'know i'm not english so once again i'm sure people familiar with bristol accents and also general english linguistic class markers would have more informed takes 😔 like even "ambiguous euro accent" isn't just one voice and his is still quite distinct from ollie's weird overenunciation thing it's just like. a vibe...
beyond that i'd say a lot of it is just having traveled extensively as a kid (oscar had a few years on him when he started karting in europe too) + i guess having a belgian parent and presumably being around a decent amount of flemish-speaking relatives growing up??? but also idk everyone is unique and some people are just inherently more prone to mirroring accents and adopting "chameleon" behavior and considering his expansive friend group it's not particularly surprising that even at his age lando would pick up on new speech patterns! i remember when i moved countries for school and didn't realize how much i was adapting my accent again until i saw my friend and she was like WHY DO YOU SOUND LIKE THAT 💀 and then i became hyperaware of it....... sob. apropos of nothing lando's voice has changed so much it's kind of unreal... age 11 vs 17 vs 24 what an interesting guy
#ask#i really feel like i shouldn't be trusted with giving my opinions on things 💔 good night don't flame me#but please offer insights in the replies if you'd like

The "ー" isn't "ichi"; in katana spelling, it means an extended vowel sound. So "コー" is "kō" or "kou." The stylization makes is harder to see, but the "ヨ" in the first pic is actually smaller to make "シ" ("shi") into "ショ" ("shio").
Either spelling seems right tbh because both "レー" and "レイ" sounds practically the same, "rei" or "ree." Katana words are mainly borrowed words from other languages written for Japanese pronounciation, so spelling might not be entirely standardized. It might just be how Takashi liked to write it when he made up Kaiba Corp; the YGO wiki is not official, and someone might have used another spelling. I think if you want to stay truer to the original source material, perhaps what the official JPN sites and manga would be best.
Hope this helps!
Hey YGO peeps I'm trying to make a pattern but I keep finding Kaiba Corporation spelled two different ways in Japanese. The first image is from the YGO store and the second is Wikipedia. Which one's correct??? The YGO site seems to use "ichi" (which doesn't make sense to me?????????) while Wikipedia and other sites I've read use the Katakana "i."��

Do you think Edelgard perceives herself as a victim? I’ve been thinking and I can’t decide myself, on one hand she clearly hates the idea of people being victims or helpless, and constantly reframes the victims of the war as “necessary sacrifices” instead of, y’know, tragic causalities of a war she started. She plays up her sad backstory to try to get Byleth to join with her in WC, but then she does all these things to concentrate as much power as possible on herself. On the other (other) hand, she pushes the culpability of the war on everyone except herself, and has trouble taking accountability. She’s obsessed with controlling everything but she doesn’t want to be blamed for the problems she’s created. What do you think?
Oh!
(sorry for replying one literal month later lol)
I find Supreme Leader hard to write because of this, but in a way, I believe that yes, she does.
However, for all the flak Faerghus gets for "ToXiC mAsCuLiNiTy" and "Chivalry BaD", there's something very toxic with the way some Adrestian victims (often women... blame the writers I guess?) deal with their abuse.
I'm not going to spend a lot of time on Doro because I already typed a lot about her, but while she still sees herself as a victim from what she endured and suffered in her childhood, she adopted the toxic mindset of "this suffering is a thing of the past and I grew from that/beyond that to become the person I am now" - which we can also see in Manu who suffered from, roughly, the same traumas.
Petra also follows this pattern, being a hostage and treated like shit, but she grow "beyond" her status of a victim to become the strong person she projects and believes she is - it's only out of House that she realises more accutely her status within the Empire, the reality of her situation and, in Houses, refuses vassalage to Adrestia to make her country independent without having to "ask the Emperor".
It's the same pattern : "I was a victim" but "I became strong" so "I am not a victim anymore, this is something of the past".
Applied to Supreme Leader...
Well, trying to ignore the Agarthans and her dad's own infuence on her character (which is kind of hard, since the games try their hardest to make Agarthans responsible for everything BaD and we're not clear on how much they had an influence on her), I think Supreme Leader believes she was a "victim" of abuse.
But - through further abuse and surviving said abuse - she became strong* enough to "not be a victim anymore".
Which is why her line of "if the weak remain weak it's their fault" feels like it echoes part of her mindset : she was a victim but became strong enough, maybe by hardening her own feelings to become "strong", so she is not the same helpless "victim" she once was.
If she managed to do that, then everyone can do the same.
As for the "necessary sacrifices", since early 2019 someone theorised that "the people" she pretends the fight for as seen as some general "concept", much like the "greater good". So if some people are sacrificed, it's for her ideals - the goal and aim of her newfound strength - , and it piles on her drive, she must realise them otherwise those people would have died (and she would have suffered) for nothing.
However, despite acknowledging her past self as a victim, and because she's now "strong", she's not above using her past trauma (but actually, still present! Remember the rat scene?) to reach her goals, because, at her core, Supreme Leader is soemone who is very determined. Maybe it's her only drive to grow beyond the trauma, or her own illusions, or a mix of everything, but AM made it clear, Supreme Leader is not above, well, using herself if it means seeing her goals come to fruition : unlike Lobotogard from AG, AM!Supreme Leader willingly transforms in Hegemongard.
This is the cost she's willing to pay, so while the memes about Lord Farqaad were on spot, I still think that Supreme Leader is ultimately willing to sacrifice** herself for her goal (but only when there's no other way to ensure her future will come to fruition, and in a way, I guess she thought she would survive the Hegemon transformation, jury's out on what she meant to do in AM's finale, but imo, she still tried, even beaten and battered as she was, to claim Dimi's head).
Ultimately I think everything's a bit muddled by the fact that, as @fantasyinvader pointed out, Supreme Leader is a liar and knows the importance of maintening good PR.
She lies and manipulates the truth to reach her goals (which again, is a red flag when CF claims to want to restore the "distorted history" of Fodlan!) and for all the flak I give them, the devs managed to scrap enough material to give us a peek in Adrestia's mindset (or at least its top nobles), they're not people who self reflect, they are salty because they aren't ruling the world anymore, and they feel like they are better than the rest of Fodlan.
Put everything in the mixer, and you indeed have Supreme Leader (but also her court, especially Ferdie in SB who dares to say, as he is invading and trouncing people who don't really like and accept the idea of being invaded, that the fear those people feel are only in their mind, or something like that? Like, dude, you're rolling over their people and country, of course they'll fear and hate you!) giving her weird rhetoric lines (why are people opposing me if they are going to die?), victim blaming (something Treehouse swallowed like honey, if their lolcalisation is anything to go by, remember, it's Rhea's fault for not offering her head on a platter that is the reason why the War continues in CF!) and so on.
IDK if the devs wanted to bank that much on the Dany parallel with her "if I look back i am lost", but again, I don't know if her drive to make a "better Fodlan" is motivated by her trauma, Adrestian revanchism, Ionius telling her dumb things or Agarthans agarthaning, but her goal and vision are everything to Supreme Leader.
So she will do anythign to see them realised, even if it means sacrificing her people, starting a war, tweaking "the truth" or using her own trauma to motivate and recruit powerful people who might assist her with her goals.
To reply to your question, IMO she sees herself as someone who had once been a victim, but won't let that stop her from reaching her goals, even if it means creating thousands of "hers" in the process, because, in her mind, reaching her goal is more important than anything else.
*I know, she refutes Dimitri's claim that she is "strong" or laughs at it, but imo, it was more in the sense of "I was weak and became strong" so everyone can "become" strong.
**I don't think she wanted to throw away her life, but more something in the lines of "putting my life on the line" or sacrificing her precious (and to see how precious it is, just play CF lol) humanity.
#mgphotogirl#replies#the way the games are written no one truly holds her accountable for the war and the WC events#the parley scene tries but then it forgets everything to talk about visions and whatnot#without even going in the 'your allies framed Dedue's people for something they never did and you are using demonic beast for fuck's sake'#territory like seriously it's so mild#Being in an UO mindset now I'm still baffled at how Alain at least delivers some venom and hatred to the guy who#trampled over the continent and doesn't deserve to him to be called its king#even if he puts his hatred aside to purify and offer him salvation#but in Fodlan? there's no hatred or feelings about the war or the WC events#I mean you could believe they're arguing about what dish should be cooked for a birthday#or they're in a heated philosophy class#This verse's pathological need to make sure she's never held accountable for her actions#bled in FEH and in even in FE17 :(#Imo Supreme Leader could have been a fascinating character#if only they dialed back on the uwu and teasets prospects#and i say that not only because we would still have fans going all 'arvis did nothing wrong as he cooked his younger brother on a low flame#for Supreme Leader but because the 'driven by their convictions to the point of abandoning why they wanted to do X in the first place'#for a female character in the FE franchise would really have been progressive in the 'yes women too can be red emperors'#fodlan nonsense#tbh going from Hegemongard in AM to AG's Lobotogard really hurts#but as a certain youtuber said#Lobotogard was designed with a certain bait in mind#and I'm pretty sure it was the only way to get some unconclusive 'everyone survives ending' without slaughtering Dimi or Supreme Leader#characters at least
