Unrelated (or rather coorelated) to my previous ask, Barbie Mariposa adds a funny layer to the Fairytopia lore,,, politically wise.

On one hand Fairytopia is very fantastical and vague about it's sociopolitical workings. Enchantresses, Guardian fairies, Apprenticeships, Mermaid Kingdoms, etc. very loosey goosey with how it all works.

On the other hand the butterfly fairies, cut off for who knows how long from the rest of fairytopia, had an assassination attempt against it's queen in a long form mission by a beloved public figure head. this is a movie for kids :D

Yea I love thinking abt like. The larger world building in not-well-thought-through implications from kids shows/movies. I do think there’s a line a lotttaaa ppl cross where like. They forget we’re talking abt a kids show. Like I’ve run into a lotta ppl and a lotta weird conversations where I find myself saying “well yeah, it’s a kids thing?” trying to be strict about the lore via implications or whatever isn’t fun yk- but it’s also fun to speculate! And notice those implications! Playing <3

Anyway around when I was making those posts (and particularly focused on the fairytopia series) I had this whole hc abt which regions the guardians were like. Guardians of, and the apprentices ofc were guardians in training. I gave a lotta personality to a lotta them and even said Lindin was the son of the guardian he was chosen by. Topaz was his guardian btw. I remember I got rlly rlly into the personality + backstory I gave to Tourmaline- I said he was the guardian of the hinterlands. Which made his failure to contain Laverna and failure to recognize her impersonating his own apprentice a little heavier.

Danganronpa Trial 6/Epilogue thoughts

Here’s the ending! I really enjoyed this game, And’ll prob give a full review sometime later, but which game should I play next, dr2 or dr:udg?

Either way:

That’s a lotta ultimates

Nice of Komatsuzaki to shade kyoko’s patootie so we can’t see her unmentionables

Girl you should be more worried about slipping than me with those heels

Hm that’s a kinda sad backstory

My opinions on u don’t change, but I have some respect for ya

Hm

Dang Kyoko way to sell that

Bear jokes? Who are you, Teddie?

Oh dang…it really is a final showdown

Dang, she never broke a rule, eh?

Why u mentioning Junko now?

Yay! My friends! And Byakuya!

Harsh…

Miss Cleo? Am I missing something?

Ok miss pot is there anything else you wanna call black or just the kettle

I am once again asking toko fukawa to please cease

Aw hina don’t say that!

You’re more useful than Hiro at least

Honestly I can see some ship tease between our boring hope man and milk-bag swimmer girl

Ok, let’s go!

Ruins?! Hey what’s this?!

Nice swanky bathroom they have

The headmaster’s room, huh

Also quite swanky

A hidden room? We’ve reached levels of swank I don’t think exist yet

Aww his password for the computer is her name!

So sweet if u don’t remember he left her in the care of the extended family

Oh, a box?

HOLY SHIT

Aww, what a cute picture

Game are you trying to give me a seizure?

Hello eye of Horus, what are you doing here?

Oh dang, that’s mukuro?

A whole Monokuma room? Really?

Why would you not check the hatch, Makoto

CHECK THE HATCH

THE HATCHHHH

WHAT DID YOU THINK WAS IN THERE???

Is this a bio lab or a morgue?

There are 16 fridges…

Girl you have the spine of a sea cucumber, of course people won’t accept you

Aw dang, I thought it was trial time…

Strange…hiro

A photo?

It sure is nice, though

Are you not even gonna consider that Junko’s face is blocked?

I stILL can’t go in there?

Come ON!

Why’s everyone avoiding me?

At least Jill isn’t

Wow! That doesn’t sound foreshadowy at all, Jill!

Ooh a cd!

Wait…interviews? For what purpose?

Staying here forever?? Why tho??

Ok is it actually trial time????

WOOOO HOOOOO

TRIAL TIME TRIAL TIME TRIAL TIME TRIAL TIME TRIAL TIME TRIAL TIME TRIAL TIME TRIAL TIME!!!!!!

Why’s everyone so mean-looking??

If byakuya’s team dad then Kyoko’s team mom

They’re both just disappointed

The localization team really had a lot of fun didn’t they?…

Too many deepers, Mako

Very…Spartan

Even Byakuya’s too disgusted for words

Holy…girl needs some moisturizer

Y’all are just now realizing it’s Junko??

Heh, Xanadu

That was a p. Cool ending frame for the closing argument

Smoke?

Ope there she is

What’s with the robo voice?

At least the game is self-aware enough to point out that the twin reveal is kinda dumb

Woah she changed

Maybe the last name thing is that Junko’s using a moniker

GAH again??

Dang a complete verbal cutdown

jeEEZ

again??? Why tho???

How could u expect that Kiri?

Geez

I find that hard to believe, Junko

“Always filled with despair,”????????

How many personas does this girl have

My thoughts exactly Hiro

That’s a bit of a stretch, Junko

Also it seems like she repeated the words Togami said in his first FTE

Her Monokuma voice is kinda nice

At least she’s cordial

A theme?

She seemed so fake when congratulating me for the second time

Ok I’ll admit this is pretty cool

Crazy Eddie??? Whomst???

Wuh-oh

Wow, that foreshadowing was important

hAH

that’s the name?

Hah, the secretary

Ooh, a fourth-wall break!

That’s…kinda sad…

2 full YEARS?

I know that amnesia is a weird thing…but that specific???

She loves us????

???????????????

What even happened during the tragedy?

Yeah it is a lil hard to believe

That’s a pretty cool splash art

Wait but when Sakura…that doesn’t make sense

That’s hypocritical of you, since u forced your despair-filled view on everyone

…sHiT

I mean she HAS a point…but still

Chunsoft really saying “fuck ur ‘abused Junko’ headcanons, she she just don’t care”

HAH

Schrödinger’s cat is very apt rn

Pfft

Ooh a new voice clip

Liar💖💖💖💖

Oh, the main theme!!

Cool!!

So he’s the…Ultimate Hope?

Didn’t expact that, eh?

A callback to Leon? In MY trial 6?

Not gonna lie…I almost died in that last BTB

Has Junko’s face always been on there?

Dang she really is crazy

First and last colossal despair?

I would say I want what she’s smoking…but I’m kinda scared to even think abt what that is

Whoa those some crazy eyes

There she is

What?

She’s going through EVERY PUNISHMENT?!

How is she surviving all of these?!

And in the end…crushed to death, but not before having a small spot of hope

(I’m putting the epilogue here as well)

Are you sure it isn’t just the lack of air, mako?

Toko. CEASE.

It took 2 hours to do that trial…

Here we go!

Aw, it just ends?!

Who’s kujira?

At least the ED is nice

WHA?!

HE’S STILL ALIVE????!

I got an eestur egggg

That’s the end, huh?

SEE YALL IN THE NEXT GAME!!

[tragicomedys]

uhmmm gentan

WEOWOEOOOWOOIIEOIFPOPLP

>:) . i love gentan a lot. now im not gonna be able to give a sexy ass nuanced essay like my fellow mutuals do about their pairings but listen . i just think theyre great. i think they complement each other i think they could potentially have been rlly fucking good i think they couldve really been essential figures to the other’s development. notice the word COULDVE because yeah i admit a lot of the pairings i like come from my own perception on how they couldve developed bc like admittedly genya had way more potential and tanjirou as great and fun as he is he literally just stays static thru out the whole manga. except for a couple of small moments. but like other than that hes mr perfect BUT ANYWAY

i think for genyas part its kinda obvious. tanjirou helped him Tremendously through his relationship with his brother & overall was pretty protective over genya n shit. i think tanjirou helps/would help genya gain more confidence overall, especially thinking back to his last moments where he thought of tanjirou and his words to gain, like, the confidence and strength to go through with the mission even tho he was doubting himself. in that way, tanjirou sorta completes genya, like he reminds genya to be kinder to himself and be more confident in himself and etc etc. pretty common tanjirou behavior.

for tanjirous part... their backstories are similar in how they both experienced the deaths of their entire family (in contrast to zenitsu and inosuke, and kinda kanao because her original family’s deaths arent expanded on), but the way each of them took it provided like a backdrop to their characterizations. i know tanjirous own experience with coping and grieving isnt expanded on too much, considering how its shown that he sorta “accepted” the death of his family from the beginning (thinking back to the scene where he held that guys hand & smiled, and even if that wasnt necessarily acceptance we dont REALLY see tanjirou process his past trauma in depth ig), but i think tanjirou in general is someone that would be closed off abt his own grief and pain cuz hes the “older brother” and would naturally hide away anything he thinks would worry and upset others. i mean we already see that in how he didnt tell that little nurse butterfly girl that he had a fever for his sun breathing (self-sacrifical too) and how he was basically kinda like. not expecting to be alive by the time nezuko would become human/theyd defeat muzan (essentially accepted dying when his face got FUCKED up until zenitsu said ur not dead yet buddy; overall he doesnt accept other ppls help easily as he noted how if he were the demon in their situation nobody would help him (i forgot what manga ch that was but he said smth like that) amongst other situations). theres also one of the first demons he fought where he was talking about how as the oldest brother he needs to endure more stuff and pain and whatever whatever u know. so what the fuck im getting at by the end of all of this is that i just think as genya could develop into being more confident n sortaaaa pushy (i feel like hes naturally pushy with basically anybody except his brother and tanjirou LMFAO) and could like, help tanjirou express his feelings in its entirety more freely yknow, like both the good and the bad. like i mentioned with why im not really into inotan / zentan (like that i feel like tanjirou would always feel the need to look over them n honestly can u blame him ? theyre Crazy) but i like gentan bc i feel like they could naturally become more equal in a sense when it comes to how they balance each other out. genya could've possibly been a character to help tanjirou through his own grief that he’s internalizing and couldve been someone tanjirou could relax around and not feel the need to look over... IFFFFF AND ONLY IF his character was expanded on/didnt die that quickly n early or whatever.

I think that kinda dynamic would also work out bc of how genya couldve possibly been feeling towards his brother growing up, just watching him from a distance and wanting to help him but not being able to do anything. and his guilt when he accused sanemi would just be insurmountable. so what im getting at is that i feel like genya wouldnt want that to happen, like, again, and thats why i think he’d actually take action when he grew to be more of a risk-taker and would try 2 actually make tanjirou open up yknow. bc again tanjirou upholding his “oldest bro” title wouldve taken a toll on him if u ask me. that whole vision of himself would logically lead to a lot of bottling up of emotions. i know genya tried making that right and tried helping his bro by like, becoming a demon slayer, but again i just can see genya and tanjirou having that sorta relationship.

ANYWAY. again i do acknowledge that like, for the most part ive probably filled up parts of their personalities bc i think the both of them had more potential/couldve been developed more like i just view it sorta as a flaw how static tanjirou is and how short genya’s time was. it’s definitely possible and likely that i interpreted some scenes in a very diff way compared to others, and i mightve interpreted their characterizations differently than watever other people. but like in my big dumbo brain theyre gay theyre fun they would love eahc other 2 death they would have a lotta fun together and BLAH BLAH ! but besides the “analysis” i jusyt gave on them i just thikn theyd be awesome. mr “i thought he’d talk to me since we were both in the nude” tanjirou kamado. the way genya and tanjirou have blushed @ each other many times WOUGJOUIHJ. the way they give each other strenght . the way genya protected him in battle and thought of him during his last moments . the way tanjirou is easily impressed (u remember when he was like WOAH SO COOL about mitsuri n stuff and genya was just like ... :| ) so i just think its funny if tanjirou thought genya was cool like . .it’s genya LFMREI9WODJFSLK. i know every other person tanjirous age is like in love with him but whatevrr tanjirou would crush on my homeboy genya 🙄 . iwas gonna say something else but i totally just forgot

in conclusion they should kiss just cuz i said so or what ever idk
