#fujishima tatsumi

[stormdragon23]

Just wanted to compare the Draw Sword Guild's casual outfits

So Goto Ryuji, Hoshino Minoru, Fujishima Tatsumi, and Kei seem to wear pretty much the same outfit with the only difference being the red designs on the black jacket

It's hard to tell with Izawa Ippei, but it looks like he might have something similar to the others. Ishida Mari's jacket has shorter sleeves, and Kumamoto Atsushi doesn't have the red patterns and has designs on his inner hoodie, but they all follow the same theme to the others, just with minor differences

Shimizu Akari and Tanaka Kenzo deviate more with Shimizu Akari wearing a pink hoodie, and Tanaka Kenzo wearing just a tank top but he matches the color schemes of most of the guild

And then there's Tawata Kanae

I'm pretty sure she just wears what she wants, and nothing can stop her

(Headcanon that the more off their clothing is from the typical outfit (what Goto Ryuji is wearing), the more chaotic their personality is. Not sure about Tawata Kanae though)

[pain-suffering-even]

types of weapons the hunters would use pt. 2

this time, the draw sword guild, definitely not my favorites :)

goto ryuji:

his sword is really cool, actually. a very nice ruby red. i think he would have a long sword and short sword (kind of like the daisho, a matched pair of japanese swords). otherwise, he would just use his hands. or his teeth. i think he just doesn't really care too much about how it's done, as long as it gets done

sugimoto reiji:

it's not stated in the manhwa what class he is, so i head canon him as an assassin because i think there's only one or two that are canon. so, i think he would have a dagger for short-range kills, and kunai and shuriken for long-range kills (slightly inspired by genji from overwatch's kunai and shuriken setup - the green even matches his usual suit...)

tanaka kenzo:

his fists suit him as a tank-esque fighter. if not that, then brass knuckles (slightly inspired by seo seongun from lookism... beloved...) also i just think he likes to get hands on with things, if him during the jeju arc gives us any clue what his fighting style is like

tawata kanae:

i think a two-sided spear or scimitar would be cool. she also has double blades as it is, so i think she just likes working with two instead of one. higher level of efficiency and all

as i was adding photos... i realized... what this was inspired by... lmao

yeah. that fits her for sure

fujishima tatsumi:

i think he would use things more for looks rather than efficiency, so anything cool or unique... a scythe seems up his alley. something like ruby's scythe (especially because it also works as a gun - and i think the engineering mind i've head canoned for him would love to fiddle with that and make it abysmally powerful)

ishida mari:

i headcanon him as a ranger because i think there's literally only taegyu otherwise. so he would use a compact bow as his main weapon (inspired by the chiron form of the coronacht bow), but he also uses a rapier. he strikes me as a rich kid that studied abroad in london and learned fencing (i know it's really specific but those are just the vibes i get)

shimizu akari:

she has her giant golden battle axe. i also think she would know boxing, so she has short-ranged hand-to-hand combat down

kumamoto atsushi:

he doesn't really need a weapon, since he has a strange fighting style, and i headcanon he transforms like yoonho. but... something blunt, like a mace or a club. maybe nunchucks? or something similar to the playful cloud weapon from jujutsu kaizen?

hamada kei:

they're an ice type mage, so they have a varied attack pattern, but i think they would like a bowstaff or a baton (inspired by nami's clima tact from one piece. it even has the bonus of controlling the weather through temperature - which kei can... sorta do, lmao). something to easily knock-out any monsters that get near them so they can run before they throw up. really, it's more of a back up weapon, since they would take anything out before it got too close to them (inspired by this video!)

izawa ippei:

the actual canon assassin. well, i headcanon he likes collecting all sorts of weapons and learning how to use them, but his go-to would be something slightly ranged, like a spear (inspired by maki's from jujutsu kaizen) or a scythe (i think something simple like the one from soul eater would suit him best)

hoshino minoru:

i also headcanon him as an assassin (i mean, look at that raid outfit - you can't tell me that's not built perfectly for stealth and a better range of motion!), but more short-ranged and borderline fighter style. i think he has a sickle for quick chain kills, and an old dagger for sneak kills. (sickle is directly inspired by percy jackson and chronos' sickle, but i don't think we ever got to see it in a movie, but something along these lines would fit well. dagger is more of the hunting/gutting knife from the hannibal nbc series)

well... that about wraps it up! i tried to get more visuals from media this time instead of just googling the weapon type from the internet. there are some pretty cool weapon designs already out there, unique ones that always catch my eye. i just like weapons a lot lmao

Fujishima Tatsumi Headcanons

The wiki says this about his personality:

“Tatsumi is displayed to be a laid back person, who is confident in his skills as an S-Rank hunter. This is seen as he and his teammates are relaxed under the threat of the S-Rank Jeju Island. Even after both Akari Shimizu and Kenzo Tanaka are killed instantly, he does not falter and quickly attempts to attack the enemy, which however led to his death. “

And my headcanons:

Personality:

Calm under pressure, snarky sense of humor, mix between a fighter and a scholar. Knows how to put on a polite mask when necessary, but would rather just tell someone when they’re irritating him. Prefers to ignore the press. Not really interested in the fame, though seeing some of the positive comments people make about him online can perk up his mood.

Family:

His mother is a Librarian and his father a History Professor. From them, he picked up an interest in reading, with a preference for science fiction and history. Their income is somewhere in the middle class range, not rich but not struggling to pay the bills either.

Hobbies:

Tatsumi likes video games, preferring ones that are both story-based and have action, finding it to be like an interactive book. He likes to read science fiction and history, studying ancient cultures. Seeing how others lived in the past interests him – the clothes they wore, the food they ate, the music they listened to. He’s less interested in the wars they had, but he does like to see what ancient weapons they used.

Relationships:

He’s the responsible one of the group, pointing out the consequences when someone’s about to do something impulsive. Long-suffering and snarky, he’ll say ‘I told you so’ when his friends’ mischief inevitably goes astray, but secretly, he likes the chaos. (As long as he’s not getting in trouble with them.)

Tatsumi would enjoy a romantic partner that he could both snark with and have intellectual conversations. Someone who’d both enjoy going to the book store and museum, as well as going for a stroll through the park. Before he became a Hunter, he wasn’t that into martial arts and fighting, so he wouldn’t expect his partner to be much of an athlete, but he doesn’t want a couch potato either.

Skills:

He’s more of a speed based Hunter, though he’s still got the strength of an S-rank, able to arm wrestle anyone of a lower rank. But out of his fellow S-ranks in his guild, he’s on the weaker end. Not the fastest or the strongest.

However, his skill gives him a bit of an edge. It’s something like precognition, allowing him to see a few seconds in the future. Though whether it’s actual future sight or simply having a vision of what his opponent intends to do, he’s not certain. But it gives him enough warning to dodge attacks when his opponent is faster than him.

Chapter 96 of Solo Leveling

Seriously, what just happened?!!! They were all S-Ranks. And they were killed so easily. Like how?!

Dude, the manhwa keeps on taking unexpected turns. The Jeju Island Arc just began and already took three top hunters are dead. I'm guessing, all these Japanese S-Rank Hunters are gonna die.

[stormdragon23]

Headcanon that with the exception of Goto Ryuji and Sugimoto Reiji (I imagine them being the oldest though), the Draw Sword members were introduced from oldest to youngest since we don’t know much about them (I don't think there's that much of an age difference between them though):

Izawa Ippei (Maybe he looks the way he does because he's usually the one to look after the others)

Ishida Mari (I'm just going to assume she looks young for her age. A lot of the Solo Leveling characters do honestly. Maybe it’s her height too)

Tanaka Kenzo (It's confirmed he's older than Akari at least)

Hoshino Minoru

Kumamoto Atsushi

Tawata Kanae (Minoru, Atsushi, and Kanae being around the same age kind of makes sense to me)

Fujishima Tatsumi (Nerdy younger brother vibes?)

Kei (You know how younger siblings tend to be taller than their older siblings? That's what I'm imagining for Kei)

Shimizu Akari (Menace youngest sibling vibes)

[stormdragon23]

Draw Sword teams during the Jeju Raid + headcanons based on them:

Alpha: Goto Ryuji, Hoshino Minoru, Ishida Mari - Goto is protective of these two in particular. Minoru because yes (I think most people see Goto as his father figure, and so do I). Mari because she's not as strong as the other S-Ranks (She was the first out of the team taken out by Beru, so she's likely weaker than Minoru)

Bravo: Tawata Kanae, Kumamoto Atsushi - Kanae's one of the few who's able to handle Atsushi if he goes into a frenzied state - She's also one the few willing to put up with Atsushi being a coward despite being mad at him for doing so

Charlie: Fujishima Tatsumi, Shimizu Akari, Tanaka Kenzo - Kenzo usually needs healing more than the others, so Akari had to go with him, but they have a tendency to argue - Tatsumi was forced to go with them to keep the peace. He doesn't want to be with them

Delta: Izawa Ippei, Kei - They might be close friends. They seem to have similar personalities, so maybe they have similar interests as well. Also, Kei might be the one of the few who can keep up with Izawa Ippei with the latter being an assassin despite Kei being a mage - Kei also doesn't want to be around too many S-Ranks, so he wanted to be with just one other person

[pain-suffering-even]

various headcanons that i forgot aren't actually canon pt. 3

the draw sword guild team, who definitely aren't my favorites

Firstly, I don't know why, but I made the jump of headcanon-ing Hoshino Minoru as Goto Ryuji's nephew. This isn't canon but I refer to it a lot, so I just wanted to clarify straight away this is not part of the manhwa!

Reiji had a really long lasting emo phase. It kept going even when he was a hunter, and only stopped when he was promoted to vice guild leader. But he still has tattoos and piercings from back then, and it drives the team wild (they figure out he has his tits pierced and he never knows peace)

Tatsumi was in university to become an engineer. He tends to do random things whenever he gets bored. As in, dismantling the communal kitchen dishwasher and trying to "upgrade it to maximum efficiency," or taking apart various devices to try and "create a homemade roomba," and so on

Ryuji's lockscreen is an old, fat cat, and his homescreen is that same cat with kittens, and a rather excited young child. This has sparked rumors within the team that he has a kid (the kid is a very young Hoshino Minoru, his nephew)

One of Tatsumi's better hobbies is the trumpet, much to everyone's dismay. However, they realize Minoru is a heavy sleeper when Tatsumi attempts to play the Megalovania theme and Minoru just. Sleeps entirely through it

Kanae was going to be a tattoo designer/artist (I think being a tattoo artist requires a medical degree in Japan... but she would not care) and she still doodles designs in her spare time

Kanae also wants to have every inch of her tattooed, as a goal of hers, so she takes suggestions from the team (Kenzo and Tatsumi aren't allowed to suggest anything because they keep advising onigiri)

When Reiji created the team, he first hired Kenzo, Kanae, and Tatsumi. A tank and two fighters. He hires Mari, a ranger, and Akari, a healer after Tatsumi nearly dies doing stupid shit in the gates

Mari was a sheltered rich kid. The team takes it upon themselves to educate him on the wonders of 60 cent ramen packets (and other things as well)

When Akari moves in with her pet bugs, Kanae goes back to trying convince Reiji to allow her to have a pet python. Reiji doesn't budge, and for her birthday, Kenzo, Tatsumi, and Minoru all band together to sneak a python to her room (it goes about as well as you'd imagine, which isn't well at all)

Kenzo is terrified of bugs. At some point, Akari's millipede escapes. This is where their little rivalry begins

Ryuji doesn't really interact with the team a whole lot (at first), doesn't even attend the trainings. He's moved out of the offered room that comes with being a Draw Sword Guild leader. The kids are a little disappointed, because they've heard a lot about the Goto Ryuji, and barely get to see him outside of dungeons or gates

At some point, the Annual Guild Conference is held in Las Vegas. The entire team begs to go, because it's Las Vegas, and Reiji relents. Even Ryuji goes

Ippei and Mari are tied for being the shortest two on the team. Kenzo uses their heads as elbow rests a lot

Everyone tends to distance themselves from Atsushi a lot, since his fighting style is... dangerous. Kenzo is the only one who is really friendly with him, since he's so confident that he's stronger than Atsushi, so he can't ever kill him

Ippei is prone to insomnia, so it becomes a thing to just. Walk into his dorm room to bother him if you're up at 4 am, because he's most likely up as well

Kei isn't an insomniac, but they are a night owl, so they tend to run into Ippei in the communal kitchen a lot, and they become really good friends when they start playing Minecraft together

Akari discovers Ippei's old streamer videos. Even though he deletes them immediately, it's too late. She's clipped several videos of him getting jumpscared, or rage quitting, or doing something stupid, etc. They become reaction images in their groupchat

Tatsumi challenges him to speed-running Minecraft and loses terribly, but now they know Ippei didn't fake his speed-running videos. Tatsumi always challenges him at least once a month

Reiji urges Ryuji to participate in the team, which prompts Ryuji to choose Atsushi, Kei, and Ippei as potential hunters. Reiji recruits them immediately, but Ryuji still doesn't interact with the team much, to Reiji's disappointment

Ippei accidentally microwaves a fork one time in the morning after not getting any sleep. His expression did not change a single bit as the microwave caught on fire. "Oh no," has become an expression throughout the group

Atsushi, like Yoonho, is capable of shifting powers. He turns into a brown bear, but it's a really unstable shift. He's working on controlling it

(I chose bear because I think Kuma = bear in Japanese, so little brown bear boy!!! He's not little hes like 7 feet tall but you know what I mean)

[pain-suffering-even]

Mr. Krabs: rip to tawata-san [mochi mochi reacted to “rip to tawata-san” with :saluting_face:] [flamingo reacted to “rip to tawata-san” with :saluting_face:] [axolotl reacted to “rip to tawata-san” with :saluting_face:] [beef reacted to “rip to tawata-san” with :saluting_face:] [kaneda shotaro reacted to “rip to tawata-san” with :saluting_face:] Mr. Krabs: goto-san!

anyway! new fic!!! yay!!! its only barely 2k words but still! hope you guys enjoy it, i wrote it in one sitting and decided to share because every fandom deserves a nice lil chat fic full of fluff (for now lmao)

Deepest secret: He was (and mildly is) anorexic and does not like his body 

Best/Worst thing to happen to them: Joining the Draw Sword Guild/Going to college early 

Random memories: His mom taking care of him when he had a really bad fever and feeling really bad when she got it a few days later, participating in his first car race and being unable to fall asleep that night from the sheer adrenaline rush of it, staying up late to play Undertale and sobbing so hard at the ending that he had to skip class the next day, annoying everyone on campus as he practices the trombone as he does his best to perfect Darth Vader’s theme, getting irritated with the coding on a certain part of one of his projects and getting so angry that he shattered the windows in the building and was quietly asked to leave for the day, getting so motion sick when driving through hill country for the first time, 

Best friend/Worst enemy: Ishida Mari/himself

Good/Bad traits: Funny, passionate, smart, /Impulsive, independent, stubborn, defensive 

Things they’ve done/like to do: Steal car parts from the junkyard, work on engineering projects in his university’s lab, play video games, create the most illegal car engine ever, participate in equally illegal car racing, create little robots to carry things around his apartment, blast the trombone outside his most hated professors building,   

Personality type: “Adventurer” ISFP-T (41% extraverted, 59% introverted; 41% intuitive, 59% observant; 47% thinking, 53% feeling; 28% judging, 72% prospecting; 49% assertive, 51% turbulent)

Additional headcanons -

He was studying to be an engineer. It means he can build wacky shit whenever he feels like it. Therefore? Also the car guy of the group. He's got his own tricked out ride that is probably illegal but its fine

That calm exterior is a sham. He's a bit of an adrenaline junkie

He's also a gamer but is much more competitive compared to the others and doesn't really play well with others in that sense. Instead he just shows them all the hacks and does his best to not become a backseat gamer

(he means well, it's just… if you could just hit it right the first time… the battle would've been over a while ago… would you like to let him have a go?)

Freckle man. He's got 'em all over his body. Kinda extremely shy about it

Also incredibly defensive. About himself, his friends, etc. He was like this even before his awakening. Would have to be held back from fighting others

Despite being an S rank he fucking loves roller coasters. It's incredibly fun to sit next to him because the man sounds like he's having the time of his life while everyone else is like dude. bro. we're going 5 mph

Kanae is the only one that knows about his tattoo. it's a Japanese dragon wrapped around his thigh and was a bitch to get done but it looks cool as hell. He doesn't show it off much though cause he's a bit shy

He’s woken up everyone one time when he lit his room on fire after fucking around a little too much with his car engine and no one has let him live it down since

Their Timeline

Has held many sleepovers. She likes organizing girls night out and stuff like that

Can hold her liquor really well. On par with Goto. It kinda scares everyone 

She loves snakes. She can't get the one she wants though cause it's poisonous and that's against the dorm regulations 

Was actually trying to become a tattoo artist but her awakening turned her career around. She sometimes still doodles ideas though, and has offered to do tattoos for others if they want em cause she’s technically still got her permit and who’s gonna stop her anyway? She's an S rank 

This is how she’s the only one to know about Tatusmi’s kinda cool looking dragon tattoo 

She's so good at bowling Kenzo has nearly thrown a bowling ball at her in rage. Shes gets a minimum of 100 points every fucking time they go. Everyone is losing their minds. How is she so good? Is that her 5th strike in a row? Mari I thought you had good aim you should be better than her

Random memories: Waiting for his friend to get done with her class and listening to the rain pour onto the roof of the library as he reads some of the books assigned for one of his classes, rocks being thrown at his window and being very confused when he sees his friend throwing them til she explains that's a normal thing in England, everyone insisting he has to go to the upcoming dance and surprising everyone in a lime green jumpsuit, Kenzo giving him a bear hug for the first time and immediately having a crisis over being touch starved,

Additional headcanons -

Swings between extremely talkative and mute

Loves thunderstorms. Whenever it rains, he sits in the lounge and reads books by the window. It reminds him of past habits

He uses a bow because giving everyone a sword would be too basic

Catholic school scarred him but also helped him figure out he's trans once he finally left

His parents are really rich, but he never realized. Kenzo yells at him for buying the expensive coffee all the time, and then they realize he's the son of a conglomerate CEO... now he tends to charge his parents card whenever the team goes out, just out of spite

Building off that, it's really funny to have him guess the average price of anything.

"It's a banana, how much can it cost? 6$?"

modern AU jobs for the gang

what jobs/positions/etc would they have if the rulers and monarchs were never a thing? well...

(this list is a little long, just a heads up)

Choi Jong-In: arsonist Forensic scientist

Baek Yoon-Ho: I know in canon they mention him being a firefighter? which i kinda see, since he seems like the type to want to help people. but, besides that, I could also see him as a EMT or something along those lines

Min Byung-Gyu: He would 100% be a nurse. He gives me tired and slightly unhinged med student vibes

Cha Hae-In: Personal trainer perhaps? Or a martial arts teacher?

Lim Tae-Gyu: Competitive archer (probably won a few silvers and a gold at the olympics and afterwards he immediately retired)

Woo Jin-Chul: Accountant. or! or a math teacher! but i imagine he'd be too tired to deal with kids, so

Go Gun-Hee: The korean equivalent of a DA. i was gonna say judge but that doesn't seem up his alley, so

Yoo Jin-Ho: I mean... he's rich... that aside, he'd probably start a company with his money, probably for bioengineering research stuff. anything to help people, yeah?

Sung Jin-Woo: Well, he'd still be how he was at chapter 1, so... hm... maybe a librarian or something like that? i'd imagine he likes books a lot

Thomas Andre: Can you imagine this man in the real estate market... selling houses... "oh you're the construction worker?" "nah im sellin this house!" and the buyer would like. visibly pale. because this man would still be built like a brickhouse i can guarantee it

Laura: Architect/interior designer (she probably flips houses with Thomas and he splits the profits with her)

Christopher Reed: Marine biologist + animal/environment activist

Lennart Niermann: Hair stylist

Liu Zhigang: Blacksmith. he'd be so good at creating swords

Goto Ryuiji: Grumpy but diligent manager at an office

Reiji Sugimoto: Aspiring musician/singer

Akari Shimizu: Either an entomologist or a pediatrician, though i feel like the latter is too obvious since she's a healer

Kenzo Tanaka: PE teacher + school counselor

Atsushi Kumamoto: Probably part of a cleaning service

Ippei Izawa: Twitch streamer. he just. gives me those vibes. gaemer

Kei: Psychologist + profiler

Kanae Tawata: Tattoo artist

Minoru Hoshino: Works at the same office as Goto. one of the few to put up with his grumpiness

Mari Ishida: Lawyer. she'd either be loved or hated since she's a stickler for rules and procedures

Tatsumi Fujishima: He'd work as an engineer for NASA perhaps, or maybe try and start his own robotics company. You know those robot dogs? yeah. yup. he'd love that

more, because... i am insane about these 11

Tatsumi gets motion sick easily despite liking roller coasters a lot

Goto Ryuji was first a group leader, then vice, and then ascended to Guild Leader after the founding one passed away in a Red Gate

(Ryuji was the only one to survive said Red Gate - he then appointed Sugimoto Reiji as vice, because they were friends under the original leader)

(This is also why Ryuji's leading style is so... unique. And why most the responsibility falls on Reiji. Ryuji didn't really ask to become a leader, he doesn't know what he's doing, but Reiji picked up after him so why bother trying?)

Akari is prone to really bad headaches/migraines

Kanae was previously part of a different guild, Blinding Shield in Kagoshima which is closer to her hometown, but moved away after a friend of hers died in a dungeon raid

Atsushi's biological father, Kikuchi Chikao, runs a guild in Nagoya called Iron Maiden. There's rumors that before he ran a guild, he was part of the underworld in some shape or form

Akari is allergic to chocolate, which is why she has lollipops all the time as her go-to candy

Tatsumi does car drag racing in his spare time - that's what his current engineering project is about, trying to create the perfect car from scratch. The team just thinks he's obnoxious about cars (he is)

Kei lived in Niseko for a really long time, and goes there on vacation to visit their grandparents

Minoru really, really like cats - despite being allergic to them

Kanae lived with her grandparents most of her life because her mom was serving time for getting into an accident while under the influence

Atsushi reawakened from a D rank to an S rank. The reawakening was really traumatic and resulted in him killing two people, so he spent some time in rehab for it. Though someone tried to keep the incident under wraps, most know about it

(Atsushi killed his older brother and cousin in the incident. He hasn't been back to Nagoya, his hometown, ever since, even with the job opportunity offered by Kikuchi when he got out of rehab)

Ippei creates a Minecraft server for him and Kei - somehow, Tatsumi finds out about it, and then the whole team has it. Tatsumi is currently putting his redstone knowledge to use to automate everything, to the point it's lagging the server

Minoru is the one who adds Reiji and Ryuji. They have no clue what they're doing. Ryuji is just collecting cats in the game

Kanae really likes snakes. Unfortunately, the one she wants as a pet is poisonous, a type of pit viper. Tatsumi hears about this and for Christmas, pitches the idea to the rest of the team (minus Reiji and Ryuji, they would never allow it) - cue shenanigans as they attempt to get a snake inside the Draw Sword Guild dorms without alerting anybody about it, including security and Sugimoto Reiji

(Reiji ages about 50 years when he sees the snake. He just decides to pretend he never saw anything in the first place)

Kenzo's scars are from his time with his foster father. He doesn't like to talk about it so he just makes up a story each time

(His foster father collected a lot of young boys to run an underground cage fighting club. When Kenzo finally left at 18, he had about four of his foster brothers waiting for him outside, and lived with them for a while. They were really excited for Kenzo when Sugimoto scouted him out)

Atsushi's eye injury was pre-awakening, and a result from his insane cousin. He didn't want to get a fake glass eye, so he just has a solid gold one instead

Akari figured out Ippei's streamer name because of how much he liked mochi, and how he knew about certain pop-culture references, and how he had a lot of cameras and mic equipment in his room

The only time the team has been out of country NOT for anything guild related was because TWICE was having a concert in South Korea and Akari begged Sugimoto to let her go. Somehow, they all went - something about Ippei really wanting to go too - and Sugimoto was praying every day to avoid a disaster happening while they were there. They survived, only because South Korea's own hunters were fighting all the time

Despite being S rankers, not everyone can hold their alcohol. The order of who can hold it from most to least is: Ryuji, Kanae, Mari, Akari, Kei, Reiji, Kenzo, Minoru, Atsushi, Tatsumi, Ippei

ok, i think that's it! i will inevitably be back after i get more brainrot about these ones because i am sooo normal about them im so so normal i promise i mean it -

various headcanons that i forgot aren't actually canon pt. 3

the draw sword guild team, who definitely aren't my favorites

Firstly, I don't know why, but I made the jump of headcanon-ing Hoshino Minoru as Goto Ryuji's nephew. This isn't canon but I refer to it a lot, so I just wanted to clarify straight away this is not part of the manhwa!

Reiji had a really long lasting emo phase. It kept going even when he was a hunter, and only stopped when he was promoted to vice guild leader. But he still has tattoos and piercings from back then, and it drives the team wild (they figure out he has his tits pierced and he never knows peace)

Tatsumi was in university to become an engineer. He tends to do random things whenever he gets bored. As in, dismantling the communal kitchen dishwasher and trying to "upgrade it to maximum efficiency," or taking apart various devices to try and "create a homemade roomba," and so on

Ryuji's lockscreen is an old, fat cat, and his homescreen is that same cat with kittens, and a rather excited young child. This has sparked rumors within the team that he has a kid (the kid is a very young Hoshino Minoru, his nephew)

One of Tatsumi's better hobbies is the trumpet, much to everyone's dismay. However, they realize Minoru is a heavy sleeper when Tatsumi attempts to play the Megalovania theme and Minoru just. Sleeps entirely through it

Kanae was going to be a tattoo designer/artist (I think being a tattoo artist requires a medical degree in Japan... but she would not care) and she still doodles designs in her spare time

Kanae also wants to have every inch of her tattooed, as a goal of hers, so she takes suggestions from the team (Kenzo and Tatsumi aren't allowed to suggest anything because they keep advising onigiri)

When Reiji created the team, he first hired Kenzo, Kanae, and Tatsumi. A tank and two fighters. He hires Mari, a ranger, and Akari, a healer after Tatsumi nearly dies doing stupid shit in the gates

Mari was a sheltered rich kid. The team takes it upon themselves to educate him on the wonders of 60 cent ramen packets (and other things as well)

When Akari moves in with her pet bugs, Kanae goes back to trying convince Reiji to allow her to have a pet python. Reiji doesn't budge, and for her birthday, Kenzo, Tatsumi, and Minoru all band together to sneak a python to her room (it goes about as well as you'd imagine, which isn't well at all)

Kenzo is terrified of bugs. At some point, Akari's millipede escapes. This is where their little rivalry begins

Ryuji doesn't really interact with the team a whole lot (at first), doesn't even attend the trainings. He's moved out of the offered room that comes with being a Draw Sword Guild leader. The kids are a little disappointed, because they've heard a lot about the Goto Ryuji, and barely get to see him outside of dungeons or gates

At some point, the Annual Guild Conference is held in Las Vegas. The entire team begs to go, because it's Las Vegas, and Reiji relents. Even Ryuji goes

Ippei and Mari are tied for being the shortest two on the team. Kenzo uses their heads as elbow rests a lot

Everyone tends to distance themselves from Atsushi a lot, since his fighting style is... dangerous. Kenzo is the only one who is really friendly with him, since he's so confident that he's stronger than Atsushi, so he can't ever kill him

Ippei is prone to insomnia, so it becomes a thing to just. Walk into his dorm room to bother him if you're up at 4 am, because he's most likely up as well

Kei isn't an insomniac, but they are a night owl, so they tend to run into Ippei in the communal kitchen a lot, and they become really good friends when they start playing Minecraft together

Akari discovers Ippei's old streamer videos. Even though he deletes them immediately, it's too late. She's clipped several videos of him getting jumpscared, or rage quitting, or doing something stupid, etc. They become reaction images in their groupchat

Tatsumi challenges him to speed-running Minecraft and loses terribly, but now they know Ippei didn't fake his speed-running videos. Tatsumi always challenges him at least once a month

Reiji urges Ryuji to participate in the team, which prompts Ryuji to choose Atsushi, Kei, and Ippei as potential hunters. Reiji recruits them immediately, but Ryuji still doesn't interact with the team much, to Reiji's disappointment

Ippei accidentally microwaves a fork one time in the morning after not getting any sleep. His expression did not change a single bit as the microwave caught on fire. "Oh no," has become an expression throughout the group

Atsushi, like Yoonho, is capable of shifting powers. He turns into a brown bear, but it's a really unstable shift. He's working on controlling it

(I chose bear because I think Kuma = bear in Japanese, so little brown bear boy!!! He's not little hes like 7 feet tall but you know what I mean)
