I hope this is not an inappropriate ask (if it is, feel free to not post), but, do you by chance know any manga with female having an auto crossdressing/trap kink? I don't know if use the right terms, I haven't actually searched for that yet, but basically, a girl that enjoys being mistaken for a boy, without her being an actual trans male, or wanting to be a boy, something like this. Emphasis on mistaken, i.e. passing as male, not just roleplaying with her partner who know she's female

that sounds like a DREAM of a manga and probably one of my many white whales. i honestly don't know anything like it, but i would kill for such a manga. the closest scenario i know to what you're describing is a female character who seems neutral-to-positive towards cross-dressing or male fashion/styling. it's never portrayed as a kink or even just a kind of gender presentation euphoria. many of the masculine-leaning girls who wear boy's clothes that i know (which are not many) simply seem to regard that as a lax don't-care-what-i-wear behavior and when in a situation to dress up will choose to wear typically feminine clothing because that is seen as "putting an effort and being cute".

the only ONLY situation i've ever seen of a girl glad she was seen more like a boy was one joke in the manga gekkan shoujo nozaki-kun (monthly girls' nozaki-kun) [MAL / AL / MU] by kashima yuu (who is not the Main MAIN character, mind you, but still an important part of the cast). she showed up to school on pants that day to celebrate how her voice seemed lower and raspy because she was kind of sick. she usually wears skirts though (but her casual clothing is male fashion, though i've never seen her trying to pass as a boy again).

there is a character in hourou musuko (wandering son) [MAL / AL /MU] who identified as a trans boy for a while but then went back to being a girl at some point. i never finished this story, but at the start passing as a guy was naturally really important to them and there is a chance they kept that sentiment to the end. they do let their hair grow longer again so i really don't know.

the only other character who actually seems to want to cross-dress that i know is hazuki from ikemen joshi to josou danshi (handsome girl and cross-dressing boy) [MAL / AL / MU]. at some point she does wear a typically feminine bikini (and maybe some other clothes too, i don't really remember) 'for some reason' even though she crossdresses on a daily basis (kashima from gekkan shoujo nozaki-kun and sou from itoko no ko both have more gender neutral swimwear that matches their personal style so that was a deliberate choice)

every other character either seems to not care and have some transformative moment of 'finally dressing as a girl', or have some complex about their own choice to cut their hair off and dress in masculine fashion.

i'm holding out hope that i'll get something good in the manga goukon ni ittara onna ga inakatta hanashi (how i attended an all-guys' mixer) [MAL / AL / MU], but it will probably not be anything close to a kink since it's a light comedy slice of life series as far as i know.

if anyone knows anything that fits please PLEASE let us know and i'll go running to check it out

“go on caring for me.” — gojo satoru.

When Gojo Satoru first appeared at your doorstep, his usual confidence and easygoing demeanor were replaced by relief. The sight of him, with his usually covered eyes now piercing through you, almost made you crumble on the spot. Those cerulean blue eyes seemed to see right through the walls you had built around yourself, and the vulnerability you felt under his gaze only intensified your headache. You had tried to hide, to disappear into the shadows, but Satoru had found you nonetheless.

YOU DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WAS THE FEVER OR IF IT WAS THE REALITY. But you never expected those cerulean blue eyes to stare at you like this — somehow it made your migraine worse. Satoru visiting you in your Kyoto apartment was both a surprise and a relief. You had been off the grid for months, grappling with a depressive breakdown triggered by Suguru's departure. 

The flashbacks to similar traumatic events were vivid in your mind. You can never escape it. Stolen glances, tender kisses, warm hands marred with bloodshed, madness, grief; You never thought it would repeat again. But well, it did. And you were stuck. Memories from your youth had been relentless, leaving you isolated and vulnerable. And it didn’t help you that a god was messing with you, voice echoing so mockingly, so full of depravity that you couldn’t take it anymore. You didn’t want anyone to see you in that light. Not in that way.

Gakuganji had reassured you that you were fine — but you were sure he was only saying that because that’s what the higher ups say. He’s still an ass kisser, you know that much. You were also his favorite. One that is seen as the prestige of that world you had wanted to leave behind. And you hated it. You didn’t want it, not anymore.

You didn't know how Satoru found your secluded hideout, but he did. You had moved a few months prior, knowing Gakuganji would send Mei-Mei or Utahime at your door again. You’d told no one that you were here. But he was here. And you couldn't do anything about it.

When Satoru first appeared at your doorstep, his usual confidence and easygoing demeanor were replaced by relief. The sight of him, with his usually covered eyes now piercing through you, almost made you crumble on the spot.

Those cerulean blue eyes seemed to see right through the walls you had built around yourself, and the vulnerability you felt under his gaze only intensified your headache. You had tried to hide, to disappear into the shadows, but Satoru had found you nonetheless.

“How did you find me?” you croaked, your voice barely audible over the sound of your own pounding heart.

Satoru didn't answer immediately. Instead, he reached out and touched your forehead gently, his touch cool against your fevered skin. "You're burning up," he murmured, his voice filled with worry.  “Genmei–senpai, how long have you been sick? Hey, don’t close your eyes yet!”

Before you could protest, the world went black.

When you woke up, the apartment was strangely quiet. The room was dimly lit, and you were lying on your couch, a cooling towel on your forehead. The faint smell of candy wrappers lingered in the air. You still feel too warm, but not like before. You supposed that he did his best. He couldn’t do a reversed cursed technique on you — your body’s a bit weak to do it. But he tried his best. That’s all that matters to you. 

You turned your head slowly, and there he was, sitting on the floor beside the couch, his head resting near yours, watching over you with a look of pure concern. The figure of  Gojo Satoru resting his head near you was quite something to wake up to. He must have been tired. He’s been on non-stop missions, you knew that much. Your fingers brushed against his hair. Your eyes softened more. He kept his promise, how he would never use Infinity against you. 

The realization brought a mix of emotions. You hadn't felt this level of care since Kaiko's death. Memories of Kaiko flooded your mind, particularly the time during your second year when you walked home together. Namie was too sick then, she caught a cold after staying up late finishing a drama series. So in the end, Gakuganji just sent the two of you. 

Somehow, she looked more beautiful in your memories. But you supposed that it's because you love, loved, her. Just as Satoru still longs  Suguru, just as you long for Kaiko – there’s always going to be beauty in that longing — because it is love. It will always be love.

The sun was setting, casting a warm, golden hue over everything. The two of you walked side by side, the weight of the day slowly lifting as you chatted and laughed.

"If we ever break up," Kaiko had said, her tone surprisingly serious for a moment, "you should go on caring."

"Huh? Why'd you even think that we'd break up?"

"Dummy, it's just a hypothetical!"

You frowned at her. "I don't wanna joke about our romance ending like this, thank you very much."

"Boooo, you're no fun!" She gloats, making faces at you. "Come on, already. Indulge me once, lover! Please?"

You hated it, when she used her bright eyes against you.

But you loved her too much to say no, especially like this.

Somehow, after all this time, she just knows how to get you.

You had scoffed, nudging her playfully. "I'd go on caring for you, of course. You think I wouldn’t care about you, huh?”

Kaiko laughed, the sound light and full of life. "No, silly. I mean, you should move on and care for someone else. Love someone else."

You had paused, the weight of her words sinking in. The thought of moving on, of loving someone else, seemed impossible at the time. But Kaiko's eyes held a faraway look to them. Ever since you met her when you were children, it always feels like she was always far too much ahead of you.

You always wondered how she could be this mature for her age. How her smile was still so soft, encouraging despite all that had come past her by. Sometimes you wanted to ask her.

How she could be like that. How she could smile so beautifully, without reservation. But you didn't want to ask, not right now. You just wanted to love her. To enjoy her wonder, even from afar.

"Promise me, hm?" she had said, her voice gentle but firm. "Promise me you'll move on and find someone who makes you happy."

You had smiled back, feeling a warmth spread through your chest. "I promise." you had said, though at the time, you hadn't fully understood what that promise would come to mean. “Even if it was never going to happen.”

“Oh, how sure are you that you’re going to keep me, Zenin?”

“Just as sure you are, you'll keep me whipped, Kamo.”

“Ohhhhhh, we’ll see about that!”

Now, lying on your couch with Satoru watching over you in slumber, those words echoed in your mind. Kamo Kaiko had known, even then, that life would move forward, that love would find a way to heal the deepest wounds.

You could feel Satoru mumble against your touch, slowly moving against your fingers. It was as though he was asking you to do it again. As though asking you to be tender with him again.

You gazed at him, the soft rise and fall of his chest, the way his lips parted slightly as he slept. His presence was a balm to your weary soul, a reminder that even in the darkest times, there was light.

The way his fingers instinctively tightened around yours made your heart ache with a mixture of gratitude and something deeper, something you weren't quite ready to name yet.

"Satoru," you whispered, your voice barely audible, not wanting to wake him. His hair was tousled, a few strands falling over his forehead, and you couldn't resist the urge to gently brush them away. The simple act of touching him, of feeling the warmth of his skin, grounded you in a way nothing else could.

As you continued to watch him, memories of Kaiko's laughter and her encouraging words filled you with a renewed sense of purpose. She had wanted you to move on, to find happiness, and here was Satoru, offering you a chance to do just that.

The years of pain and isolation seemed to melt away, replaced by a fragile hope that maybe, just maybe, you could find solace in each other.

Satoru stirred slightly, his eyes fluttering open. For a moment, he looked disoriented, but then his gaze focused on you, and a slow, sleepy smile spread across his face.

"Hey." he murmured, his voice husky from sleep. "How are you feeling?"

You smiled back, feeling a warmth spread through your chest. "Better," you replied softly. "Thanks to your help.”

“You don’t have to thank me for anything.” He snickers to you, his dark glasses lowering to reveal more of his eyes. “I was around.”

“Hm, and how did you know where I was in Kyoto? And which building?”

His face turned flustered, a blush echoing on his cheeks. He rubs the back of his head. “It wasn’t that hard.”

Your face dropped. “Is that why you were more tired than you were? You used six-eyes to track where I was?”

“It’s not that bad, senpai! Really, you have a particular cursed energy–”

You flicked his forehead with your fingers, causing him to groan. “You could have messaged me, you idiot! It wasn’t worth getting a headache for, geez.”

You could see his lips turn into a pout, looking down as he rubbed his forehead. "…Is your number still the same?"

"Huh? Why would it change?" Your lilac eyes furrowed at him with confusion.

"......’uguru changed his."

You realized at that moment that you made a mistake. The weight of those words hung in the air between you, a poignant reminder of the deep chasm that Suguru's departure had carved into Satoru's life.

You felt guilt seep into you as you realize how stupid it was of you. Kaiko did the same thing. And you really had no one to help you reassure you about it. You couldn’t help but pierce your lips into a flat line.  

Your eyes grew tender with apologies as you watched as he stared at the floor, his normally confident demeanor now clouded by an uncharacteristic vulnerability. It was a stark contrast to the confident sorcerer you were used to seeing, and it tugged at your heartstrings.

"Satoru…" you began, your voice softening as you reached out to gently lift his chin, forcing him to meet your gaze. "I'm not going anywhere. My number hasn't changed, and it never will. So call me, okay? Even if it's just about your new favorite mochi flavor. Tell me. Call me.”

“Genmei-senpai….”

“You're not alone. You never will be. So just, believe me, okay?”

He let out a shaky breath, one that he had surely been holding for far too long. You could see his cerulean eyes reflecting a myriad of emotions—pain, fear, and a glimmer of hope.

"It just… It feels like everything is changing. I don’t… I don’t like it, senpai. It’s like… like I'm losing everyone. Shoko’s leaving for medical school… and… Nanami’s leaving by the end of the year. I just… Where did it all go wrong?"

The raw vulnerability in his voice broke your heart. You had never seen him like this—so open, so human. It was a stark reminder that beneath his powerful exterior, Satoru was just as susceptible to pain and loss as anyone else.

Gojo Satoru always was like a little boy, he acted like one — a brat, as Shoko likes to say. But he had never looked more like it than he did now. Defeated, vulnerable. A boy who had lost everything that made him feel alive and now was longing for something to make him feel alive again. 

"Satoru, you should know this but…." you said gently, moving closer to him, your hand finding his. "Life has a way of shifting, sometimes so subtly that we don't notice until it's too late. But it doesn't mean you're losing everyone. But it doesn’t mean you’ll be alone. Shoko and Nanami have their paths to follow, just as you have yours. It doesn't mean they care about you any less."

He squeezed your hand, as if drawing strength from your touch. "I know, but it still feels like everything is falling apart. Suguru… his choices... I thought we were in this together. I thought we’d always be together."

"I know," you whispered, your heart aching for the weight he carried. You thought like that too, at one point. You thought you and Kaiko would always be together. "But Suguru’s choices were his own, and they don't reflect on you. You did everything you could. So don’t blame yourself, hm?”

"But it wasn't enough," he replied, his voice breaking. "I couldn't save him."

You shook your head, gently placing your other hand on his cheek. "You can't save everyone, Satoru. No one can. We can only do our best and hope that it's enough."

His blue eyes searched your lilac ones, looking for the reassurance he so desperately needed. "But what if it's not? What if I can't protect the people I care about?"

"You can only do your best," you repeated softly. "And your best is more than enough. You're strong, and you're kind. And more than that, you have people who love you and want to help you carry the burden. You don't have to do it alone."

Satoru nodded slowly, his eyes closing as he leaned into your touch. "I don't want to lose anyone else, Genmei." he murmured, his voice barely audible. “I don’t….I don’t want to.”

"You won't." you promised, your voice steady and filled with conviction. "We're all still here. Shoko, Nanami, me… We’re here for you."

He took a deep breath, his grip on your hand tightening. "Thank you." he said, his voice a little stronger. "I just… I needed to hear that."

You shook your head, your fingers brushing away a stray tear that had escaped down his cheek. "You're not losing me." you said firmly. "I promised you that day, didn’t I? I’m not leaving.”

Satoru's lips twitched into a small, tentative smile, his eyes searching yours for reassurance. "Promise?"

"Promise," you replied without hesitation, your heart aching for the man who had always been a pillar of strength for so many, now struggling with his own inner turmoil.

He lifted his pinky finger, extending it towards you with a serious expression. "You have to make sure that it's a super promise, senpai."

You blinked at him for a moment, taking in the sight of the strongest sorcerer in the world making a pinky promise like a child. You couldn't help it; laughter bubbled up from within you, spilling out uncontrollably.

Satoru's face turned a deep shade of red, his usual confidence faltering as he became flustered. "Egh!? What's so funny, senpai? I thought that was our thing?"

You tried to stifle your laughter, but it was no use. "It's just... you’re such a boy, Satoru," you managed to say between giggles. "Here you are, all powerful and mighty, and yet you’re making pinky promises like we’re kids again."

He pouted, looking both embarrassed and indignant. "Hey, a promise is a promise! And pinky promises are unbreakable, you know."

You shook your head, still smiling. "I know, I know. It's just... it's endearing, that's all."

Satoru's pout softened into a shy smile. "Well, I'm glad you think so. So, are you gonna make the promise or not?"

You sighed dramatically, but linked your pinky finger with his. "Alright, alright. I promise, Satoru. A super promise."

He nodded, his expression growing more serious. "Good. Because I mean it, senpai. We’re going to get through this together."

You squeezed his pinky with yours. "We will. I promise."

For a moment, you both sat there, pinkies still linked, feeling the weight of the promise you had just made. It was a simple gesture, but it carried a depth of meaning that went beyond words. In that small, intimate moment, you both found a sense of solace and connection that was desperately needed.

His face slowly regained its usual mischievous glint. "You know, senpai, you laugh like that... it was nice to see."

You raised an eyebrow. "Oh? And why's that?"

"Because," he said, leaning in closer, "it means that there's still a bit of joy left in you, even after everything. And I want to see more of that."

You felt your cheeks warm at his words, but you couldn't deny the truth in them. Despite the pain and the struggles, there were still moments of light, moments of laughter. And as long as you had Satoru by your side, you knew there would be many more to come.

“You sound confident that you’ll keep bringing it out in me, Gojo?”

“Of course I am! I’m your most dependable kouhai, Zenin-senpai!” he responded playfully, causing you to laugh.

“Hm, but Nanami’s my most dependable kouhai. Maybe even Nobu-chan?”

“Oi, that’s not fair! I thought I was your favorite?”

You snickered at him, your eyes becoming teasing. “Since when did I say that? And what’s with the ‘oi’? Where’s my honorific too? You were saying senpai properly and then you became a brat again.”

Satoru pouted dramatically, his lower lip jutting out in a comically exaggerated fashion. "Hey, I deserve some leniency here! Besides, isn't it endearing when I'm a bit of a brat?"

You rolled your eyes, but a smile tugged at your lips. "Maybe a little," you conceded. "But only because it's you, Gojo."

He grinned, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "I'll take that as a win. And you know, senpai, if Nanami and Nobu are your most dependable kouhai, then I'm definitely your most charming."

You laughed, shaking your head. "You're something, alright."

“Something amazing, you mean,” he corrected, his grin widening.

You sighed dramatically, feigning exasperation. "If only your humility matched your charm."

Satoru laughed, the sound rich and warm, filling the room with a sense of ease. "But then I wouldn't be Gojo Satoru, would I?"

"No, you wouldn't," you admitted, smiling. "And I suppose that's a good thing. Because the Gojo Satoru I know is pretty amazing just the way he is."

He blinked, a bit taken aback by your sincere words. For a moment, the playful banter was replaced by a genuine connection, an unspoken understanding that despite the teasing and the jokes, there was a deep bond between you.

"Thanks, senpai," he said softly, his eyes reflecting a mixture of gratitude and affection. "You know, you're pretty amazing too."

You felt your cheeks warm again, and you playfully nudged him. "Alright, enough with the flattery. Help me up, will you? I need to get some water."

Satoru immediately stood up and offered you his hand, his expression turning serious. "Of course, senpai. Anything you need."

“Medicine, I think I might need it from my medicinal cabinet.”

“Right away, senpai! Your charming, dependable kouhai to the rescue!”

“Oi, Satoru, don’t run off! You don’t know my house just yet!”

“AHHHHHH, HELP! SENPAI, THERE’S A SNAKE!”

“Satoru!?”

You didn’t know that you’ve been asleep for a while. You must have been exhausted. You tried to stay up long enough to wait for your husband. But with how early you had to wake up to get Tsumiki and Megumi up for school, you couldn’t really fault your body for shutting down itself to rest.

You didn’t hear the door but Satoru was just returning from a mission. You didn’t notice until his figure filled the wide expanse of your doorway. His bright blue  eyes lit up when he saw you rouse awake, a soft smile playing on his lips.

"Welcome home, ’toru." you greeted him, your voice still weak but filled with warmth. You looked at the clock. It was midnight. You yawned. “You’re a bit early, hm?”

“Of course.” His voice rang out as he removed his shoes. “I wanna spend time with my wife, hm?”

“Shhh, don’t be too loud. Megumi and Tsumiki are still sleeping.” You say with your index finger on your lips. 

Satoru's smile widened at you. When he moved closer, his presence was a soothing balm to your frazzled nerves. "How are you feeling?" he asked, his tone was a gentle whisper. He kissed your temple. “Got some rest now, hm? You worked hard, darling.”

"I’m alway good, because you’re here. " you replied, managing a small smile. "All thanks to my dearest husband.”

He shrugged nonchalantly, though you could see the relief in his eyes. "Couldn't leave you alone in such a state, could I? Besides, who else is going to eat all this candy?" He gestured to the candy bag with a playful smirk. “Got it on the way home. Thought you’d enjoy this with me!”

You chuckled softly, the sound feeling so good in your chest. "You really went all out, didn't you?"

"Only the best for me and the missus!" He kissed you loudly on your cheek, which made you laugh.

"Hey, I thought we were supposed to keep it down. The kids might wake up.”

“Hey, it's not my fault you kissed me like that. I’m ticklish!”

Satoru grinned, leaning back with a smug expression. "Ticklish, huh? Good to know for future reference."

You rolled your eyes, still smiling. "Great, now I've given you ammunition."

He laughed, the sound infectious. "Oh, you bet. I'll save it for when you least expect it."

You shook your head, but the warmth in your chest remained. "Seriously though, thank you, Satoru. For everything. I don’t know what I’d do without you.”

He softened, his teasing demeanor giving way to something more sincere. "Hey, you don’t have to thank me. We're in this together, remember? I’m not going anywhere."

You nodded, feeling a surge of gratitude. "Yeah, together."

Satoru’s eyes twinkled with a mixture of mischief and affection. "So, you gonna help me with this candy or what?"

"Fine, but you better not hog all the good ones," you said, reaching for the bag.

"No promises," he replied, grabbing a handful and plopping down beside you. As you both started unwrapping the sweets, the room filled with the crinkle of wrappers and the shared comfort of being together.

You took one more look at him and smiled.

If you meet Kaiko again, you wish you could tell her.

You wished she knew that you were happy again.

That you continued to go on and care for her too.

You found someone that could truly love you well.

epilogue

Morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow over the living room. Tsumiki and Megumi tiptoed into space, rubbing sleep from their eyes. There was no school today, it was Sunday. But they still wake up early. The two were in contrast to the two of you — early birds. 

When they stepped into the wide expanse of your home, they couldn’t help but stare. They felt like this was a new sight, one that they didn’t really see that much. They paused at the sight before them: you and Satoru, curled up together on the couch, wrapped in each other's arms. The sight was unusual, but it brought a sense of warmth and comfort to the room.

Megumi furrowed his brow, glancing at Tsumiki. "Should we wake them up?"

Tsumiki shook her head gently, a soft smile on her lips. "No, let them sleep. They look peaceful."

"But what about breakfast?" Megumi asked, still unsure.

Tsumiki pointed to the kitchen. "She prepared meals we could heat up. We should let them rest and enjoy their happy dreams."

Megumi nodded, finally agreeing. "Alright. Let's heat up the food and eat quietly."

The siblings moved silently, warming up the meals you had lovingly prepared the night before. The aroma of breakfast soon filled the air, but the sound was kept to a minimum to not disturb the two of you on the couch.

Tsumiki glanced over occasionally, watching the steady rise and fall of your breaths, the way Satoru's hand rested protectively over you. You tried to move slightly for a while, but Satoru would just keep following. Tsumiki laughed silently. You both look cute together.

"It's nice, isn't it?" Tsumiki whispered to Megumi as they sat at the table.

"What is?" Megumi replied, keeping his voice low.

"Seeing them happy. They both deserve it after everything," she said softly, taking a bite of her breakfast.

Megumi nodded slowly, understanding what Tsumiki meant. For a long time, life has been filled with uncertainties and hardships. But now, in this quiet morning moment, there was a glimpse of peace and happiness. The sight of you and Satoru finding solace in each other was a small, yet significant reminder that things could be better.

As they ate, Tsumiki couldn't help but feel a sense of hope for the future. Maybe, just maybe, things would continue to get better. And for now, she was content to let you both rest, wrapped in each other's arms, dreaming happy dreams. 

As she ate another bite, Fushiguro Tsumiki hoped that you both will always be happy together. That you four will always be together, too. She looked at Megumi, who glanced at you both. She smiled. She knew he wishes the same things too.

[video transcript: a scene from the 358/2 Days movie. Roxas: Hey, what happens when Heartless are destroyed? Xigbar: The hearts remain. And then those hearts gather together to form the great Kingdom Hearts. Roxas: Then, can you tell me what remains if a Nobody is destroyed? Xigbar: What's there to leave behind? We're not even supposed to "be" in the first place. Roxas: And the members at Castle Oblivion, where'd they go? Xigbar: Nothing's left of them. Roxas: In which case, I'll never see them again? Xigbar: That's right. You coming? Roxas: Huh? Oh, yeah. end transcript.]

this scene is so funny to me because if you watch it by itself you assume xigbar is being a total asshole for no reason. just random unmotivated callousness and cruelty. but the DS version of this scene comes at the end of a whole mission, and with that context, you can see that xigbar actually has a reason for...being an asshole.

(transcripts below are fetched from this text of ancient times, a GameFAQ so old that it mistakenly describes xigbar as seeing roxas when he sees xion with ventus's face.)

Xigbar: What's wrong? Dazzled by the new scenery? Roxas: Do you think it's true—about the members stationed at Castle Oblivion? Xigbar: Ha ha, is that seriously what's eating you? Roxas: We might have lost a comrade. Maybe multiple comrades. That doesn't bother you at all? Xigbar: As if. Look, the faster we get this mission done, the sooner you can RTC and get your answers.

Xigbar: Still with me there? I've seen you spaced out before, but this is ridiculous. Roxas: What? I'm fine. I'm fine... Xigbar: Let me guess. Castle Oblivion? Like I said: the longer we take here, the longer you're gonna have to stay in the dark.

Roxas: Good, then we can go home? Xigbar: Why, Roxas? Did you leave the toaster plugged in? Roxas: You know why. Xigbar: Heh heh. C'mon, let's RTC.

then the scene from the above clip plays. like, xigbar is absolutely being a jerk, privately making fun of roxas for thinking his best friend is dead (when it seems pretty clear to me from the above transcripts that xigbar at the very least knows axel is fine, and i think probably knows that a nobody getting defeated just turns them back into a human).

but he tries, repeatedly! to get roxas to not jump to conclusions. this is an issue he tries to help him out with on another occasion as well, in a later mission in halloweentown, and takes a similar "tough love" kind of approach where he doesn't correct roxas (though worth mentioning that he also goes out of his way to save roxas's hide in that situation).

in the end he tells roxas that axel's totally dead, gone forever, nothing left. still pretty callous and mean. but with the context of the mission, it's less "xigbar can obviously tell roxas is upset and doesnt give a shit" and more "xigbar has put up with roxas's moping for this whole mission and TRIED to hint that maybe he's jumping the gun, but at this point the kid can think whatever he wants, no skin off xigbar's back"

Bonus Xigbar Fact: tte hanashi spotted! if you watch xigbar's mouth at the end of the line "And then those hearts gather together to form the great Kingdom Hearts," you may be able to see him saying the phrase "tte hanashi"!

[extant-exhaustion]

Hello...Do you mind if I ask your top 5 (or top 10) favorite moments from any media that you love (books, anime/manga, tv series, movies, games, etc)? Thanks if you want to answer. Sorry if I ask too much....

Hello! This is such a great question! Thank you so much for taking the time to ask! I’m so sorry for the delay in responding. It took me a little while to narrow it down, and so many of these contain spoilers. I'm going to do my best to tag thoroughly to avoid spoiling anything for anyone! So, see below for my list, in no particular order.

Note to all readers:

✨ Pay attention to spoiler tags! ✨

Also, things in small text are the actual spoilery parts? I’m doing my best here, y’all.

Major spoilers for Anna Dressed in Blood / Girl of Nightmares by Kendare Blake, Lady Knight by Tamora Pierce, The Good Place (season 4), Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, 19 Days (webcomic).

Minor spoilers for Given, Assassination Classroom, Mob Psycho 100, Demon Slayer: Mugen Train, Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

Top Ten Moments

BOOK, Girl of Nightmares by Kendare Blake: After two books of frankly spine-tingling adventures, ghost hunter Cas Lowood and the ghost he's crossed literal oceans and planes of existence for, Anna, have a chance at some sort of life together. But Anna sees a vision—something not-quite-real, yes, but lovely all the same—of Cas calling to her. She tries to turn away, to return with him to her ghostly existence on his plane...but he lets her go. He loves her so much that he lets her pass on, even if it means he has to let her go. It makes me sob every time.

BOOK, Lady Knight by Tamora Pierce: After a long war fighting killing machines powered by some of the darkest magic in any Tortall book, my absolute kickass heroine Keladry of Mindelan is finally face to face with the Nothing Man, Blayce the Gallan. And yes, he's a mage, but he's also human and pathetic. It has stuck with me for the better part of my life—he's not a monster; he's just a man. Yet, that's the point, it's it? Acts of terrible evil can be committed by even the most unremarkable people.

TV, The Good Place, season 4, episode 9: In a moment when the fate of humanity is hinging on coming up with a plan, the group as always turns to their "answers guy," Chidi. And despite having just had memories of hundreds of lives slammed into his head, he's still able to grasp onto the fact that he left himself a message before his imposed amnesia. He searched all his life (and afterlife) for truth through philosophy, yet he found it instead in the self-proclaimed Arizona trash-bag he fell in love with. So, he bases his plan on the one truth he really knows: "There is no answer. But Eleanor is the answer."

Anime, Given, season 1, episode 9: Weighed down by his former boyfriend Yuki's suicide, Mafuyu gets on stage and is finally able to pay him tribute in a song he wrote, "Fuyu no Hanashi," about the grief of losing someone and not getting to say goodbye. He also reflects on the fear of forgetting as he grows more distant from Yuki's memory. There are moments in the song that actually made me sob with the translation ("Your everything has lost its tomorrow" and "Two people who were always together are torn apart. That’s all there is to this story"), but even the music itself is just stunning.

Anime, Assassination Classroom, season 2, episode 24: This episode is called "Graduation Time," and it genuinely means the world to me. As an episode of a show, it is incredible start to finish. As the culmination of a series, it is phenomenal. It is the Aristotelian ideal of an ending that is "surprising yet inevitable." I love it for some many reasons—it features each of the 28 students and gives them their own moment (which is wonderful, since this show made me a parent to literally all of them); it hits every emotion flawlessly; and it wraps up the major plotlines of the series in a way that is so satisfying and that only the best writing can achieve. I refuse to spoil this episode, but suffice it to say that it's yet another reason that I tell people that this show is so ridiculously underrated.

Anime, Mob Psycho 100, season 1, episode 11: After a drawn out conflict with overpowered adult psychics and increasing anxiety over whether he should fight back, Mob is at his breaking point. His mentor Reigen has always told him not to use his psychic powers against other people, but Mob and his friends and Reigen himself are in danger, and Mob is clearly scared and unsure. Then comes one of my absolute favorite Reigen moments, when he tells his student that it's okay not to fight, to instead let him, the adult, handle things: "When things go south, it's okay to run away!" And it's such a powerful moment because it's one of the only times I can think of in a shonen anime where an adult tells a kid, even a ridiculously powerful one, "Hey, you shouldn't have to do this! This is scary and unfair, and it's okay for you to let the grown-ups take it from here."

Anime, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, episode 22: I could probably choose a dozen moments from this show, but I want to highlight my best girl, so here’s one I particularly love: Winry comes face to face with Scar, the man who killed her parents and has tried multiple times to kill her two best friends. Yet, when she levels a gun at him, her hands shake uncontrollably and she can’t bring herself to shoot. After Al and Scar’s fight moves away from them, Ed gently takes the gun from her hands and Winry, distraught, asks him why she couldn’t pull the trigger. Ed’s response means so much to me: “You gave me an arm and a leg to replace the ones I lost. It’s your hands. They weren’t meant to kill. They’re meant to give life.” It shows just how deeply Edward understands Winry, but more importantly, it shows that strength comes from more than just fighting and violence. Winry is brilliant and clever and kind, and FMAB never treats that as a weakness.

Anime Movie, Demon Slayer: Mugen Train: This movie is a masterpiece, and I'm sure anyone who's seen it will agree that the fight between Rengoku, the Flame Hashira, and Akaza, Upper Three of the Twelve Kizuki, is breathtaking. The animation in the scene is gorgeous, and the music is absolutely beautiful. The tension ramps up throughout the scene as the dialogue and background action escalate in intensity, and all of it is layered on top of the imminent rise of the sun. It's one of the best fight scenes in any anime, honestly (though there have been other Demon Slayer fights that vie for a place on this list too). It's a tour de force.

Movie, Lord of the Rings: Return of the King: Speaking of tours de force, let's throw back to a classic and one of the best fantasy films of all time. There are a ton of scenes from this series that I could have chosen for my favorite, honestly, but I want to shout out a particular performance by Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn. I'm speaking, of course, about his "it is not this day" speech towards the end of the film as his troops stand ready for the Battle of the Black Gate. The speech isn’t in the book, actually, but it was perfect for the movie adaptation. (The trilogy is brilliant, let’s be honest.) It’s a speech that Aragorn delivers in such a rousing way, followed immediately by his "for Frodo" battle cry, that I'm about ready to go fight Sauron's armies myself.

Web Comic, 19 Days, chapters 368–370: This comic is genuinely incredible, but so far what I've enjoyed the most is Mo Guanshan's character arc. He started out as nothing more than a bully, but as his backstory was revealed and the reasons behind his attitude became clearer, he became one of my favorite characters. These three chapters encompass what is, in my opinion, the most intense scene in the comic, the (mostly one-sided) fight between Guanshan and She Li and his gang. It's an absolutely brutal sequence and has stuck with me for months since I first read it. It also leads to one of the first moments of true tenderness from He Tian who until now has acted primarily to get a rise out of Mo and is almost always a selfish asshole, but after this incident, his own attitude begins to change too. It’s just such a catalyst event in the story. I love it.

Phew! Well, anyone agree? Disagree? Want to freak out with me about any of these? I would be thrilled. 👏🏼

Diabolik Lovers LOST EDEN ー Shin Ecstasy [Epilogue]

ー The scene starts in the guest room of the Vibora Castle

Shin: ...Is not telling him anything truly the right thing to do? 

Perhaps I am the only one who believes it would be sacrilegious to do so right now.

Yui: ...

Shin: But I can’t bring myself...to deliver him such terrible news, knowing that he might not have much time left. 

Haah...

Yui: ( I can’t find an answer... )

ー Somebody enters the room

Shin: ーー ! Who’s there!?

*Thud*

Vibora A: ...The signing ceremony will commence shortly. Please get ready.

Shin: You Vibora sure have some nerve...You still want proof that us Founders will serve under you at a time like this!? 

Vibora A: Exactly. 

Shin: You little...!!

ー Yui stops him

*Thud* 

Yui: Shin-kun...! Stop!

Shin: Why are you stopping me!? Who does he think us Founders aーー

Yui: It was Carla-san who wanted to make it official. 

This was Carla-san’s final wish...Let’s grant it for him. 

Shin: ...

...Fine. I will sign in his place. That should do, right? 

Vibora A: ーー Then please come with me at lease. 

Shin: ...

ー Shin leaves with the Vibora

*TIMESKIP*

Carla: ...

*Rustle rustle*

Carla: I was convinced I would never open my eyes again...

Kino: Hey there, Carla. Seems like you had a nice, long dream. It’s been a while. 

Carla: ...

Kino: No need to glare at me like that, is there?

Carla: Why are you here...?

Kino: I had no idea you were ill~

How ironic for an immortal being to fall victim to a terminal illness. 

Carla: If you are only here to spout nonsense, then get out.

Kino: Yeah, yeah. I’m sorry. I’ll leave at once. 

...But the Founder King is quite generous, isn’t he? 

I can’t believe you’d hand over your position to someone who isn’t even a Founder. I guess your options are really limited. 

Carla: ...What do you mean?

Kino: What do you mean...? Exactly as I said it?

Carla: I hope you realize that you will not get away with talking badly about my younger brother. 

Kino: Ahaha! How scary. Could it be, he hasn’t told you? 

Shin isn’t a Founder. He’s the child of a Wolf Prince.

Carla: There is no way...

Kino: Hm...? Nothing about that story which rings a bell?

Carla: ...

ー A flashback ensues

Krone: ...

Carla: ...? Mother, what is the matter? Why are you holding a knife...?

Krone: ...Carla!

Carla: It is dangerous to wield those things. 

Especially since you are currently pregnant. 

Krone: ...You’re right. I was lost in thought for a bit. 

I’m sorry for making you worried, Carla...

 ー The flashback ends

Carla: ...Now it makes sense.

Kino: See you later. Make sure to talk it out with your brother.

Just kidding, I guess you might ‘fight it out’ instead, huh? (1)

Ahaha!

ー Kino leaves the room

Carla: ...

*TIMESKIP*

ー Kino enters his room

Kino: ...Hey, Yuuri.

Yuuri: Yes? 

Kino: Do you think I’m a jerk? 

Yuuri: Why do you ask?

Kino: Because I’m hoping that Carla will lose control and wipe out both the Vibora and the Founders at once. 

Yuuri: ...Will it truly be that easy? 

Kino: Of course. I can’t imagine that guy would want a guy who isn’t even a Founder to succeed the throne. 

Yuuri: ... 

Kino: Fufu. Things are starting to get interesting again.

ー The scene shifts to the saloon

Yui: ( Soon he will sign the contract...huh? Once that happens, the Founders will submit to the Vibora. )

( Shin-kun has been staring at the contract this whole time...Completely unmoving. )

( I doubt he actually wants to sign it... )

ー Somebody approaches them

Vibora A: ...!! Who’s there!? 

Vibora B: We are currently preparing for the official signing of the contract. Please leave. 

Vibora A: Wait...Eh...? You are...

Carla: ーー Do not touch me with your filthy hands.

Shin: ...!? Nii-san!?

ー Shin runs up to him

Shin: Are you feeling alright now? Are you sure you can be up and walking about?

Yui: Carla-san...! You woke up!

Carla: ...

Yui: ( Huh...? He’s acting kind of off...? )

Shin: Nii-san? What’s the matter? 

ーー TO BE CONTINUED ーー

Translation notes

(1) In Japanese, Kino makes a word play on the words ‘hanashi-ai’ or ‘talking to each other’ and ‘kuroshi-ai’ which means ‘killing each other’. 

[x0401x]

Hi, I’m looking for sources on Given and I noticed that you’ve posted interviews of the production team, what I’m looking for is an answer to the following rumor "Fuyu no hanashi was written for Ash and Eiji from Banana Fish" several videos about it say this, do you have a negative or positive answer to give me ??with any random sources please

Hi there!

I’ve heard this rumor years ago, and it’s probably the biggest mystery of the Given fandom to me. I have no sources for this whatsoever and have never seen anyone provide any source. Never saw it mentioned in any interview or cast comment, either. I tried to google it in Japanese back in the day and found nothing about it. Tried again after seeing this message and, nope, still nothing on it. Googling it in English has also been useless both times because all I find is people making this claim without ever saying where they got it from.

I do know that Kizu Natsuki has always been a big fan of Banana Fish and that it was her father’s influence, so this story doesn’t sound made-up, but it also doesn’t seem entirely true. It’s common for fans to distort or misinterpret information, so I wouldn’t be surprised if this were either not true or a total misunderstanding. Btw, if anyone out there can provide any source for this, I’d be very grateful too, because it’s been bugging me for ages now not knowing whether this is true or not or how this rumor even started.

スコールで cool down 汗ばむ肌を刺し

ヒリついた熱が疼き出すのを待っている

浮かれてる? なんて foolish question

どんな表情装ったって誤魔化せない

何度 touch me, touch you, catch heart, fall in love

飽きるなんて無理な相談

今夜 sweet pain and bitter 夢に溶ける

君に全てさらけ出して

(I can't imagine how my life would be without you) 答えて

(Only you can make me happy or cry) 永遠へと

青く生まれたての星に似た

(I can't imagine how my life would be without you) 手をとり

(Only you can make me happy or cry) 永遠へと

赤く胸を焦がす情熱は

愛しさを糧とし (加速する)

望むものを叶えるためならば

優等生ではいられない

禁断の果実をついばんで

火照り出す頬へと (くちづけを)

見つめ合った瞳に映す未来

その先が同じなら・・・

青く生まれたての星に似た

特別な時間に (祝福を)

解放した熱と混ざり合って

Translation:

My cooled-down, sweaty skin is getting pricked under the squall

I’m waiting for the painful heat to start

Am I excited? What a foolish question

No matter what expression I put on, I can't deceive you

No matter how many times you touch me, I touch you, catch your heart, fall in love,

I confess I can never get enough of it

Tonight we’ll be melting in sweet pain and bitter dreams

I’ll expose myself fully to you

(I can't imagine how my life would be without you) Answer me

(Only you can make me happy or cry) Into eternity

To this special moment that resembles

A blue, newborn star (I offer my blessings)

Release the heat that has been slowly

But steadily smoldering deep inside your body

With every breath you take sleeping in my arms,

I’ll hold you tenderly (and kiss your lips)

The heat I’m feeling is a telling sign

That today is not over yet

A top secret that blooms in the summer

I hold the display to my ear for the phone call that muffles all noise around me

I want to quickly steal away this sweet voice that has me so smitten

My heartbeat keeps keeps pounding at full volume

I’m the one who always ends up escalating things

I want to further take you there, take off, catch dream, fall in love

I want to attain it because it’s the two of us

I’ll even ask for a miracle if it means

You’ll show me just how much you ardently want me

(I can't imagine how my life would be without you) Take my hand

(Only you can make me happy or cry) Into eternity

The passion that burns red in my chest

Thrives off of my love for you (It picks up the pace)

If I want to get what I desire

I can’t be a good boy

(I kiss) The cheeks that are on fire from

Tasting the forbidden fruit

If the future reflected on our eyes as we gaze

Into each other is the same from now on…

To this special moment that resembles

A blue, newborn star (I offer my blessings)

Mixed with the heat released

And dyed in one single color

With every breath you take sleeping in my arms,

I’ll hold you tenderly (and kiss your lips)

The heat I’m feeling is a telling sign

That today is not over yet

A top secret that blooms in the summer

top 10 anime is always the most difficult question for me. i've watched so many, but hardly any of them became my favorite. the top 3 are the anime i rewatched & talked about the most. on the contrary, i've just started reading manga habitually last year, and i almost always liked what i read.

tbh, i really wanted to put the reasons why i liked them, but i'm too lazy to do it🙏💦

[hanashii]

is it just me or does lyney give off major chat noir vibes?? kinda inspired to a do a short drabble abt him 😭

- 🌙 anon

HE DOES + YOU SHOULDD,, i love lyney <333

[nyoomzz]

Thanks for answering my ask about why I suddenly love BL and GL more than het romance....I'm grateful to know that there is someone who also knew how I feel....

Do you mind if I ask your top 5 (or top 7) favorite BL and your top 3 (or top 5) favorite GL? And why do you love them? Sorry if you already answered them....Thanks again....

hiii no problem! sorry this took a while to answer im always bad at choosing top picks so this time i just went with my favorites that i consider still haven't seen talked about that much :D

(the titles with a star next to it are mature themes and/or has nsfw scenes, please don't read them if you're still below 18 years old)

yuri:

- *tsukiatte agete mo ii ka na (how do we relationship): i love how simply candid and honest it is at portraying messy relationships between not-quite-adults doing their best to grow. i really enjoy where the story is going because it's something you rarely see in manga!

- ohana holoholo: i wish there's more family-themed gl but im always happy we have this! it's painfully sincere and i love how we dive in into their lifes and see how they're involved with the bigger cast of characters

- shoujo manga protagonist x rival-san: a bit more of a lighthearted comedy, taking the standard trope of shoujo protagonist vs the love rival and putting a silly sapphic spin on it which is something that i absolutely need. its cute moments really shine through!

- yuri de naru ❤️ espoir (yuri espoir): my beloved that i can never shut up about. the cute artstyle takes you in a fun spin on meta commentary of yuri tropes only to slowly reveal that things might not be as sweet and happy as it seems... no one is doing it like them

- yuri to koe to kazo matoi: revolving around the feelings of women finding their place in the world, chasing for what they truly want. this is a bit of a spoiler but it centers around characters in the aromantic and asexual spectrum which makes it even more special to me!

- *iki dekinai no wa kimi no sei (breathless momentum): i love everything from the premise to how they grow to care about each other, it's hilarious and cute and their dynamic will always remain one of my favorites ever

- *tabun kore kara ai no hibi: the main theme about the joy and pain of creating just resonates so hard, the main characters' struggle portrays it very well and seeing the growth really made me happy!

- tonari ni: natsume ono's paneling and writing is just so special, there's this somber quality to it that absolutely draws me in. it complements very well the quiet yearning in the story

- *tenjite koi to iki: tbh this is just an excuse to talk about hayane dento's works, i always have a hard time choosing a favorite because they all have such great writing! i think about this one the most because of how melancholic it was paired with their beautiful storytelling

- boku no papa to papa no hanashi: ive read a lot of family-themed bl but this will always take the cake! the love this little family have for each other and how they grow together will always get to me

- *link and ring: just an absolutely loving relationship, you can see how much the main couple cares for each other it's just so sweet to read!

- achira kochira bokura: more slice of life than bl really and that's why it's so dear to me, it's a very natural depiction of two boys with opposite natures slowly being part of each other's lives. there's a sequel too!

what's a song or album that is tied to your identity? that no matter how long it's been, it'll always be a favorite for whatever reasons

this took so long to answer because i thought about this just the other day but i forgot what song it was and it's driving me crazy!!!! but literally like all the songs from given (fuyu no hanashi/yorugaakeru/bokura dake no shudaika). everytime i listen to them, it's like a punch in the gut like 😭 and for albums then definitely mitski's puberty 2 and tv girl's who really cares. literal works of art omg...

Whatever you proclaim, that is but a single truth of many.

You will live forever among the stars— and people will write of you, of things you have never done.

If you believe your feats to be everlasting, that is but a delusion, a dream to only offer you comfort.

Lyrics: (and translation source)

Count the stars— Corpses of lost desires

それが込める遺志の数だけ そしてまた　星が昇るのなら

sore ga komeru ishi no kazu dake soshite mata hoshi ga noboru no nara

If for every last will placed upon them Those stars will rise once again into the sky…

真実の話をしよう お前のその手が為すこと　そのすべて

shin’jitsu no hanashi wo shiyou omae no sono te ga nasu koto sono subete

Let us talk of truth: For all you have ever accomplished…

求める虚飾と架空 その手に握る歪な物語を

motomeru kyoshoku to kakuu sono te ni nigiru ibitsu na monogatari wo

Pursuing fabrication and ostentatiousness In those twisted tales you grasp in your hands…

ひとつの謎を掲げて ひとつの答えを与える　その無意味

hitosu no nazo wo kakagete hitosu no kotae wo ataeru sono muimi

Know, whenever you raise a single mystery, The meaningless of attaching a single answer

伝える欺瞞と迷妄 その手が為した罪を知るならば

tsutaeru giman’ to meimou sono te ga nashita tsumi wo shiru naraba

For all the deception and delusions you have told If you wish now to understand the sins you have wrought…

その身体が冷え切るまで　息絶えるまで その意味をただ　考えるがいいと

sono karada ga hiekiru made ikitaeru made sono imi wo tada kan’gaeru ga ii to

Until you take your last breath and your body loses all warmth, May you dwell upon the meaning of these words…

遠く高く星空に消えれば 何を追って何を求めるか、彼方

tooku takaku hoshizora ni kiereba nani wo otte nani wo motomeru ka, kanata

When you vanish far and away up into the starlit sky What will you chase and what will you seek, into eternity?

全ては星霞の向こう側

subete wa hoshigasumi no mukougawa

Everything lies beyond a veil of star-mist…

それは一つだけの真実にすぎない

sore wa hitotsu dake no shin’jitsu ni suginai

«that is but one truth among many»

さあ　見上げ　心眩ませ さあ　刻め　願いを溢せ

saa miage kokoro kuramase saa kizame negai wo kobose

Now, look skyward and blind your heart Now, etch and spill out your desires

汝　その哲学を以て 数多の星を　手にかけるなら 汝　その哲学さえも 数多の星の　一つと知れよ

nan’ji sono tetsugaku wo motte amata no hoshi wo te ni kakeru nara nan’ji sono tetsugaku sae mo amata no hoshi no hitotsu to shire yo

If you, with your philosphies deign to Lay your hands on the countless stars above Know you, philosophies, sophistries and all Are naught but one among countless yourself

運命の話をしよう 誰もが生まれたそのとき　背負うなら

un’mei no hanashi wo shiyou dare mo ga umareta sono toki seou nara

Let us talk of fate: If all must shoulder their fate upon birth…

どうして選ばれたのか それこそまた一つの謎となろう

doushite erabareta no ka sore koso mata hitotsu no nazo to narou

“Why was I chosen?” one might ask. Surely that is a mystery, equal to any other…

誰が殺し　誰が放る　皆が見ている それであって尚　誰の仕業でもない

dare ga koroshi dare ga houru mina ga miteiru sore de atte nao dare no shiwaza demo nai

Whomever kills, whomever buries the evidence, all will bear witness Yet even so, above all, no act is the sole responsibility of one

遠く高く星空を臨んで ああ美しき願いの墓標は　彼方

tooku takaku hoshizora wo nozon’de aa utsukushiki negai no bohyou wa kanata

Gaze far and away, up into the starlight sky Into that distant, beautiful graveyard of desires

全ては星霞の向こう側

subete wa hoshigasumi no mukougawa

Everything lies beyond a veil of star-mist…

それは一つだけの真実にすぎない

sore wa hitotsu dake no shin’jitsu ni suginai

«that is but one truth among many»

さあ　見上げ　心眩ませ さあ　刻め　願いを遺せ

saa miage kokoro kuramase saa kizame negai wo nokose

Now, look skyward and blind your heart Now, etch and lay down your final testament

お前は　永遠となる 夢幻の　星空のもと

omae wa eien’ to naru mugen no hoshizora no moto

You will become eternal, placed forever among those dreamlike stars

誰かがいつか　星の下 お前を探し求めては

dare ka ga itsuka hoshi no shita omae wo sagashi motomete wa

One day someone, under those same stars in seeking and searching for you…

ありもしなかった 物語を綴るだろう

ari mo shinakatta monogatari wo tsudzuru darou

Will write of you, of things you have never done…

兆すが 星火の幻想 その魂は灼かれ けして消えぬ灯火が昇るだろう

kizasu ga seika no “rêverie” sono tamashii wa yakare keshite kienu akari ga noboru darou

In the future lies: Not your feats, but a star-fire dream Your soul will burn, while another Unvanishing light takes your place in the sky

そうして

soushite

Thus…

満たすは 光彩の幻想 この夜空の何処までも けして消えぬ灯火が燈るだろう

mitasu wa kousai no “rêverie” kono yozora no doko made mo keshite kienu akari ga noboru darou

Fulfilling your absence: Not your mark, but an illustrious dream As far as the night sky can reach, another Unvanishing light will rise to take your place

man, idk if it's just been a while or smth but this line really just hits me, y'know?? this, being ep 6, already shows so much personality for pikachu. he can be stubborn and spiteful, like in ep1. he can get tired and exasperated with satoshi/ash's antics, like in ep 3 and a bunch of others. and the way he connects so well with other pokemon like caterpie (talking all through the night about dreams) and pippi/clefairy over here in this ep really shows how much like satoshi wants to be: a friend to all pokemon. to connect with them effortlessly, and be friends, and play around and have a good time. and pikachu can be quite eloquent when he wants to be (with the surge ep), while getting his point across, which is remarked by a few people at this point.

said satoshi, who gets most of the answers wrong lol. still, i like the way it's very interactive, where not only the audience comes in with their own guesses but the trio are also hard at work trying to sub the pokemon. pikachu is one smart mouse for sure, utilizing same words with different meanings like that (with kami meaning hair -which he took out of satoshi heh- and god, which was the answer that takeshi/brock got, and the right one too). and this isn't even the first time! when satoshi first went out, he was telling pikachu to have a 'talk' with him (hanashi) which could also mean 'toothless' = resulting in the little shit to open his mouth to throw the trainer off balance lol.

just,, it's fun to notice how much of the braincell pikachu has, especially in the beginning, and how much more independent he was too. he didn't need ash, nor wanted him. they're like-minded, but also very distant in the way they carry themselves at the same time. i'm pretty sure that with the duplica eps in kanto (and possibly johto as well) ash couldn't even tell him apart from a ditto--once it could do its job correctly heh-- and duplica told him that he would need time to understand pikachu enough to tell which one was his. and it's true! and so interesting to see how they go from here, to virtually the same being in later series (and pikachu losing his miming ability because they can read each others minds now).

but for now, i'm going to enjoy these guessing games lol.

(ps. this also can relate a lot to meowth/nyarth, who communicates what other pokemon are saying to the other rockets, but with words instead of actions. and that can also relate to actions speaking louder than words, and to judge a person by their actions (good => pikachu, who uses them more), and idk but you get it. also both of them are little shits to their team members at time, and can get cattish with replies and hold the brain cell most of the time. fun parallels)
