#ichiro tells him using that many mics will kill him

[akkivee]

i think jakurai using his ability to ‘cure’ mental illnesses is something heavily overlooked lol

[mc-doppomine]

Dunno why this came to mind...maybe calculating Jakurai’s deal here...Who knows but here I am imagining how much schooling these boys have gone through. 

As a note, I am not saying their schooling level as any jab to them. All people are different. Some would prefer going to school, some do not have the opportunity and some have other things to do. It really is many reasons why they would or wouldn’t go on. And I’m just guessing what I think they’ve done based off information we have of them. 

Buster Bros!!!

Ichiro I feel only completed compulsory school and some of high school. He was too busy supporting the orphanage and his brothers to really keep up with it. And considering Yorozuya Yamada is likely their only source of income, he hasn’t really gone back either. I don’t that particularly bothers Ichiro since while he wasn’t bad at school he wouldn’t say he liked it either. 

Jiro is at the age where he didn’t have to go to school anymore but Ichiro made him stay. As it was just better options for Jiro if he does finish school. He also doesn’t go to cram school as 1) he can’t stand school as is, 2) he likely goes to help Ichiro with the business and 3) there’s a chance they can’t afford to send him. Despite the latest drama tracks, I don’t see school being a point of contention between them even if Jiro doesn’t like school. I don’t see him pursuing a traditional higher education, if he even goes at all.

Saburo is still in compulsory school as far as I understand so it’s not really a question of if he goes. But obviously Ichiro would want him to stay. Especially him because he’s good at it and seems to like it. That and it might help Saburo’s social skills to have to be around kids his age. For the most of the same reasons, Saburo doesn’t do cram school either. If anything he probably could tutor if he didn’t get so easily frustrated with people. I do feel he could make it to the top schools when he gets older but I see an interest in going overseas for uni.

Mad Trigger Crew

Samatoki I don’t think went past compulsory schooling. He was too busy with yakuza stuff to really deal with school. I see him getting into a lot of fights over his background, namely badmouthing of his parents. He probably had Nemu stay though because he wanted her to have options. I think he’s really good with money even though he probably hasn’t had to worry about it for a long time

Jyuto I initially was gonna say did go to college but researching a little bit, he probably didn’t. He only would need to finish high school and pass exams. Which I feel he was prepared for. Like I think he’s been set on being a cop for a long time and worked for that. Which is why I’ll also go out on a limb and say that in high school this boy was a runner so he was also in shape for his training when he passed exams. I also think Jyuto was a good boy student.

Rio likely went into military service as soon as he could, which I believe is 18 over there. It’s a little harder to tell about how the service was since the world of hypmic is one that had another war, so it’s likely his time was busier than what it would be normally for someone in the navy. He absolutely could’ve gone to uni and come back to get a better rank but I don’t think Rio really cared about that aspect of it. (This man knows communications and some hacking, you cannot tell me he couldn’t have gone far) I will say he likely took advantage of his half-American status and is fluent in English as it would’ve been useful for joint exercises with the states. I think the dissolution of the navy really shot him in the foot but he’s just too resourceful to keep down with that.  

Fling Posse

Ramuda...obviously didn’t. And I don’t think his records would show anything. Like if it had to show anything, it would probably show him going to a super large school where it’s completely possible no one knows who the hell he was (because he was never there). And if he was based off someone, he likely had some of his credentials taken from them. He understand the culture of schooling though, I mean his style and personality does seem to draw girls high school age and older. 

Gentaro is pretty hard to imagine to be honest. I don’t see him enjoying his school life and being around classmates for an extended amount of time. And while I think he could’ve spent some time in academia in literary research, I also see him finding it way too stuffy for writing. But I think ultimately...he went to uni for a short time. For some reason I just don’t see him vibing with how the system is for it. 

Dice did not. I don’t think he finished high school although he could’ve if he wanted. But he probably avoids it because it’d be an easier way to keep track of him and run contrary to his stray sort of life style. 

Matenrou

Jakurai...is a doctor...I sure HOPE he went to school for his profession. So he studied some of the stuff you need for doctoring during his time as an assassin but he didn’t actually go into studying to be a doctor until he quit his killing at 23. He probably went into the national defense medical college, which seems to be 6 year program but you have an extra 2-3 years of compulsory service with it. I think he likely finished his compulsory service, at the latest, a year before the Dirty Dawg timeline. Or OR he faked his schooling and just knew the equivalent knowledge from his time as an assassin and was able to pass his exams and later studied whatever he lacked. He’s basically fully legally certified NOW, don’t worry...

Hifumi I just can’t see going past high school. Like I’ve always seen the incident happening in his last year of high school and it made it difficult for him to even finish. And considering he claimed in the first Matenrou drama track that he didn’t find a way to live with his phobia until he was 20...I don’t think he went. Not that he would’ve been interested in it. Hifumi is interested in what he likes and wouldn’t want to put the effort either way. I don’t think he really cares and he has more than enough skills (and money) to do just about whatever he wants.

Doppo likely went to uni. He couldn’t get into the real prestigious schools and knew he couldn’t so just went for wherever he could get into rather than wait to test again. I feel like his degree is in either accounting or business. I think he had a part-time while in school to pay for it since it seems like his family might not be as well off or he didn’t want to burden his parents (in a passing conversation I think he mentioned paying for his brother’s exams or schooling). For some reason I also can see him having a minor in biology because I see him either knowing a lot about plants or knowing a lot about marine life. What kind of person just thinking of a water flea for like a small creature?

Dotsuitare Hompo

Sasara I feel like he didn’t go past high school. Not that he couldn’t. Just that he didn’t find a need to? Not when he was set on going into comedy. Like it was either make it or be trapped with his family. And he was hard noooope. 

Rosho....is a teacher? I sure HOPE he went for his teaching certificate. I don’t think he was going to initially and might not have while he was doing the comedy game with Sasara? Their time line is a little fuzzy, I haven’t found the indicator of if Rosho and Sasara disbanded before he went to MCD or after. If it was before, then yes he went to school after they disbanded. If not, then he was in school while doing the manzai thing. So yeah dual major of mathematics (or statistics) and education (he didn’t need both but I have faith in him).

Rei most definitely went to fucking uni. This bastard would let you think he didn’t but he did. He’s probably a fucking doctor or just shy of it. Drives me mad. Why am I sure? Because if Rei is behind the hypnosis mics. As in the designer and/or inventor of it, he is a scientist or engineer of some type. I see him having a degree in either biotechnology or neuroscience. I learn towards the latter because I feel like he also got a minor in psychology (or y’know what, business is possible too for a minor). Just to mess with people.

Bad Ass Temple

Kuko I feel was the same as Ichiro in that he went to high school but not necessarily finishing it. I don’t believe he would’ve had to...if anything he’s gone back to his teachings at his temple. Yet it seems he doesn’t do that either so I’m not sure. I just don’t think he did anything past high school. 

Jyushi I think he might’ve just finished high school? I don’t know if he was just finishing or he’s soon to be doing exams. But I think he’s going to finish regardless. Y’know I feel like Jyushi would’ve liked going to uni. I can’t think of what he’d go to school for though! Would it be adding too much work to a passion if he did something with music theory? 

Hitoya...is a lawyer? So yeah? And you have to wonder if Hitoya is a masochist or loves to learn or what have you. Because he was in medical school WITH Jakurai. And then when they part ways, he quits and then goes into LAW. Are you kidding me? Hitoya, Hitoya please...I looked it up, he HAS to be a masochist! Law in Japan is super hard to get into! It has one of the most difficult bar exams to exist! What are you doing, man??? Although...I think Hitoya is still fairly new as a lawyer though because him starting when I assume Jakurai started school at 23, would have him only being fully practicing for 5 years. And that’s assuming he dropped out the first year and not later...which would only shrink he years outside. Unless whatever he got for his bachelors was applicable for law too (behavioral science?)...either way, yes he’s done it and he sure does do a lot to beat a guy that doesn’t even know they’re competing.

Buster Bros!!! vs North Bastard (Part 1)

(Note: This song contains spoilers for track 1)

Rio: A device that prevents Mics from activating?

Jyuto: Yes. We pressured one of Dark Liberty's former members, and he finally talked. They crushed several teams using that device.

Rio: It couldn't be that Saragi--

Jyuto: No. It was all the team's boss, Doan Kazusato. Saragi is under his influence.

Rio: That can't be.

Jyuto: It's difficult to believe. What shall we do? Watching this battle should give us an answer. ...Rio? What's wrong?

Rio: It's nothing.

Jyuto: Let's hurry.

Rio: Prevents Mics from activating... It couldn't be.

[Kokuri]

How many more heartbeats will you get before we end you?

Watch, we can’t be stopped

[Saragi]

Your death throes reverberate everywhere, listen

I’m lining up three coffins for you

[Kazu]

Ikebukuro won’t win this battle

This assault is stronger than you’ve ever seen

I’m gonna watch that cheeky face of yours warp in pain

Just the thought of it excites me now

Saburo: Ah, damn...

Jiro: They're good.

Ichiro: Yeah... But that's all you got? You can't stop me with just that! Yo-- You're all just-- The hell is this?

Saburo: Ichi-nii's Mic is broken!

Jiro: What the hell, why!?

Kazu: Sorry, but I made some modifications to your Mic.

Ichiro: To my Mic..? You didn't--

Kazu: You remember when I took you Mic, right? That wasn't to save you. It was all for this.

Jiro: The hell did you do to Nii-chan's Mic!?

Kazu: I wonder. I have no reason to tell you.

Jyuto: Tsk. The view from here is bad. What in the world is happening?

Rio: His Mic has been rendered useless.

Jyuto: Impossible. To think a device like that really existed...

Rio: It's likely that they attached a receptor to their opponent's Mic that releases special waves that nullify sound.

Jyuto: You seem to know quite a bit.

Rio: The military was once researching something similar.

Jyuto: Damn it. There'll be trouble if this spreads freely.

Rio: Let's find the transmitter and destroy it quickly. It has to be somewhere in this venue.

Jyuto: I'm reluctant to be lending Ikebukuro a hand... Though this doesn't seem to be the time to say that.

Ichiro: I'll do you in-- Goddamn it!

Kazu: Looks like you still don't get it. You can't use your Mic anymore.

Ichiro: Damn it...

Jiro: Saburo. You know what we gotta do.

Saburo: Yeah. Ichi-nii, please step back. We'll handle this.

Ichiro: Idiots! You can't do this alone!

Saburo: We'll be fine. Because Ichi-nii, we're your... We're Yamada Ichiro's little brothers!

Jiro: Let's do this, Saburo!

Saburo: Don't boss me around, Jiro!

[Jiro]

If you look down on us you’re gonna lose your life

This battle’s decided, paying ransom

Won’t save you, this is a kidnapping

We’ll expose your crimes to all of Japan

[Saburo]

A teenager’s hot-bloodedness can’t be

Outclassed by some old guys, don’t kid yourselves

We’re young and fresh and outta your reach

So all we gotta do is take aim and drop you

[Jiro]

The three of us together are Ikebukuro

And we always do what we gotta

[Saburo]

It’s time for Akabane’s public execution

No matter how much you regret it we won’t stop

[Jiro]

Against you bastards and your dirty tricks

[Saburo]

We three brothers will never lose

[Jiro & Saburo]

No matter what cowardly means you use we’ll counter cross

We are Ikebukuro, Buster Bros!!!

Kazu: You're just brats who think you're special because of your brother. I'll make you understand that now.

[Kokuri]

Without big bro there you’re utterly useless

You can’t surpass us, that’s a promise

[Saragi]

Kids have no power here

There’s no one who could stop us anyway

[Kazu]

Brats like you who’ve got the wrong idea--

We’ll destroy you completely, we’re pro fighters

We’ll show you we’re on a different level

We’ve taken the top, [North Bastard] Akabane

Rio: There he is. Him.

Jyuto: This is the police. Care to tell me what you're holding?

Rio: Hand it over.

Jyuto: If you won't, I'll arrest you for obstructing a government officer. ...Tsk. After him.

Rio: Seems like he won't go without a fight.

Jyuto: Regret wounding a police officer from behind bars, you scum!

[Rio]

You get in our way but it’s useless, useless useless useless

You’re all putting on pathetic faces faces faces

We’ll shoot you down one by one

Cooking will always be my victory

[Jyuto]

Trying to run from me is a battle you won’t win

Even if you die and become a ghost

I’ll show you I can still catch you

So better listen up now

[Rio] Everyone who interferes will be eliminated

[Jyuto] I’ll arrest you and make it hurt all the while

[Rio] Yokohama’s reps will crush Akabane

[Jyuto] You lost children with no place to call home

[Rio] You’re nuisances

[Jyuto] Get out of the way

[Rio] Right away

[Jyuto] Or else

[Rio] We’ll toss you

[Jyuto] Into the slammer

[Rio & Jyuto] Yokohama will shoot you down MAD TRIGGER CREW

Ichiro: Kazu... Why? What changed you?

Kazu: I didn't change. I realized. Realized just how unreasonable this world is.

[Kazu]

At the dawn of Chuuou’s reign

The Yakuza and gangs kept increasing

And one day one the way home from work

My father crossed them and was suddenly attacked

In some disorderly, beat-up hospital

My father took his last breaths

And that day I vowed before god

That I’d kill them no matter what

But what did Chuuou do?

They supplied those bastards

Not with weapons, but Hypnosis Mics

They stole even my chance at revenge

Why did Chuuou give them power?

Everything was one big mistake

They let a good man die

And gave power to those scum

I cursed this world and everything in it

There’s no God or Buddha, I killed them

If only the powerful profit in this world

Then I swore to end it

I want power

Enough to end this world

I want power

I want power

I want power

I want power

Kazu: And then, a single man appeared before me. I'd never met him, but he gave me this Hypnosis Mic and a device to render other Mics useless. I finally gained power. Enough to destroy this world!

[Kazu]

You can’t understand my suffering

You couldn’t even dream of stopping me anyway

This hatred gushing out from my heart

Will destroy everything—that’s my strength

I’m only singing from the peak

Of the loneliness that piled up beneath me

There’s no point in having friends

If you get in my way I’ll choke you out

Jyuto: Yes. The Division Battle A Bloc venue. Requesting backup. Damn it. Where'd the guy from before go?

Rio: The battle is still on. He must still be in the venue.

Samatoki: Huh? That's my line. Weaklings better not fuckin' get in my way. ...Huuuh? That's some nice shit you got there. All right. I'll demonstrate it for you. Everyone who gets in my way gets beat down!

[Samatoki]

You’ve got real guts to stand in my way

Better defend ‘em while you’ve got the chance

I’ll take care of you without leaving a single one alive

I’m denying your entire existence

This is the end, I’ll make your life flash before your eyes

Your funeral is today

Get beat down and look up at me

That sight’ll be the one good thing you’ll have in the afterlife

(Note: Part 2 continues here.)

[hyphypmic]

HypMic: Subway

@misaki-na asked: These men reaction when they're on same train with their so but they not on her side so there's a distance between them because it's so packed inside, but they see and know she got molested, like she got rubbed or got touched here and there, She was afraid to fight back because she got threatened with knife on her back and she can feel this ugly bastard can stab her anytime 😭😭😭 thank you!

Sureeeeeee~

—

Ichiro

Instantly very protective, so he does his thing and shows the guy his hypnosis mic

And he has the wolf glare of Samatoki and it’s intimidating as fuck

And when he gets the chance to like go to the guy that touched you, he breathes down a very very very heavy threat and actually steals the knife from him and points it at the molester’s penis and threatens to also chop this off first after he dismembers him

And remember, Ichiro is muscular as fuck, so his gait is even more intimidating that you know that

Jiro

Ah Jiro, he’s scared to do anything, so instead he just makes a big commotion like swinging on the bars and singing

And off he’s famous so people look and he’s giving them smiles and all that

So the guy backs off because he might draw attention to himself if he continues

Then jiro suddenly boldened calls out the guy and everyone instantly turns on him and calls him out

Jiro simply pulls you out next stop as the others beat him up

Saburo

He knows how to slip in between spaces, and he can be scary when he wants to be

Plus he might be smol but he actually toll so he would be able to shield you effectively

He would do his best to get to you, but would avoid a fight as much as possible

But he would show his mic and threaten the guy with his eyes

And it would be a pissing contest until of course saburo strategically bumps into someone and so and so forth the guy eventually gets off the train

Samatoki

He’s on the guy so fast, like not physically but one glare from the yakuza gets him to back off

And the moment he gets a window of opportunity, he grabs the guy and beats him to shit

He grabs the knife and cuts him a few times, especially on the face before he stabs it into the guy’s thigh, literally burying the knife

And at the next stop, literally tosses the schmuck out of the train and into the pavement

It depends on you whether he’ll continue or not, if not, then he’ll call his henchmen to pickup the package

Jyuto

He’s a cop, al he gotta do is flash the badge, give an eyebrow raise and a glare

The man is off instantly at the sight of the hypnosis mic also

But he goes ahead and slides in between the crowd, them making space for the officer even if there is none

And Jyuto simply puts himself between you and him then proceeds to handcuff him to the train

He asks for his name and tells him: I’ll make sure to remember it

Then he grabs the knife and pockets it and whispers into the guy’s ear: I never forget names, but people want me to

Riou

Riou straight up calls him out, like his booming voice from across the train

And it’s not embarrassing for you because he’s making a scene, but he’s calling the guy out

And much like Jiro’s situation, everyone turns on him, except Riou has Samatoki level rage and actually goes to him to beat him up

And the guy is just a paperweight compared to Riou so he lifts him up after beating him up then tosses him out of the train without another word

Ramuda

Can literally appear out of nowhere the moment he sees what’s happening

He pops up right next to the guy with the cheery smile and all that

But then he makes the threat and starts with the low dark Ramuda voice and it’s fucking terrifying because his eyes are wide and his head is tilted

The guy at first tells Ramuda to get off, but Ramuda doesn’t budge at all and chuckles darkly, stepping on a chair to whisper a very heavy threat

And also he flashes his own hypnosis mic and threatens him well, but in a very scary way, like not only murder but a promise of his whole life going downhill

Gentaro

Not that confrontational, so he wouldn’t exactly do anything beyond pushing someone so that everyone else gets pushed and in result ends up pushing him

He could also strategically trip people so that he could push in more so that he’s closer to you

And he might pul the famous card or he would lie about a lot of things, like trains being rerouted until he gets to you and manages to shield you from the guy

Dice

Oh this happens a lot and he sees it all the time because sometimes he sleeps on trains

So what he does is just call him out in a rage and wager that he can beat him in a fight

But he doesn’t give the guy time to answer because he like pushes everyone out of the way and beats the man to a pulp

Like really, dice can defend himself and he’s actually strong so like honestly???? Everyone who gets in his fucking way or hurts you can go die

And he steals the guy’s wallet and threatens to kill him if he goes to the police for the wallet

Jakurai

The assassin will manage to squeeze past everyone to get behind the guy and press a knife to the guy’s back

And in his very low voice, he would outline how he would let the guy bleed out slowly

Like he could make him paralysed from head to toe, or better yet he administers a pinch that would render him like paralysed while he trails the blade subtly up and down

And he’s whispering threats while feigning the appearance of just having a conversation

But Jakurai is a silent and deadly machine, you don’t fuck with death unless you want it

Doppo

he wouldn’t allow you two to be separated

He’s been on the train how many times and he knows how it is

Like legitimately, he keeps you at his side at all times so there’s no way in hell he would even think about letting that happen to you

He’s too much of an anxious guy to let you out of his sight for even a second

But if it does happen, Doppo enters a completely different mindset and threatens whoever touched you or actually pushes the guy out and beats him up with an incredible verse

Hifumi

He won’t be in suit because he’s supposed to be on a date with you and not flirting with everyone else

But honestly, he would push down whatever fear of brushing against women for you as he makes his way there

And honestly, he’s a big puppy, so he would probably cling to you on the subway for all eternity, so the likelihood of this happening is very very low because like Doppo, he’s anxious in a completely different way

But yeah, he’s not that confrontational, so he would probably use himself as a human shield instead

[hyphypmic]

HypMic: You Dare Cheat on Their Daughter?

@misaki-na asked: Hello! Can I request an Parents!AU about these Hypmic dads reacted to see their Daughter got dumped by her first bf because he's cheated on her? Thank you, have a nice day! 💕💕

Let’s get this.

Ichiro

Calm? Yeah he’s actually pretty calm honestly

Though he’s probably is fuming in anger inside

He would hold his daughter as she’s crying but then he would use and abuse his connections

Like he wouldn’t do anything drastic

He’d probably take out his rage on something else, not the guy

But he would so go after him, like personally go to his place of residence and threaten him

Or somehow  corner him and blast him with the hypnosis mic then pin him against the wall and threaten him

That rap is going to fucking nearly melt those brains out, but he would never let him forget

Jiro

Flat out makes a very, very threatening street art that so happens to be near his house

At first he’d be honoured right? But then… well it’s a very very realistic depiction and drawing of his death

Like as the person who was upset with Ichiro for abandoning him and Saburo, he would be very, very upset with that boyfriend

Though he wouldn’t make an actual attempt on the life though… well he’s matured enough to not like actually lash out

But then that street art would be very, very, very threatening with the undertones of death

Oh and, it wouldn’t be one art only, it would be a lot, to serve as reminders

Saburo

Oh god he’s so smart like, oh god whoever did that to is as good as dead

He’s not yonder level, but he, probably at this point, is successful in his own field and has a ton of connections

Like he could use Samatoki, or his own brothers for that matter because his daughter is basically their daughter

And it would really become a family affair so he would really have a plan that would involve more than one person attacking the dumbass

Like one time its gonna be Ichiro, then when the guy tries to run its Jiro, then last blow would be Saburo

Samatoki

Oh god, he would not take cheating kindly

But then he wouldn’t go sprack on his daughter like, he’d probably just click his tongue and tell her to be more careful but then also hold and comfort her if she’s crying

No one deserves to be treated like they’re second rate

I mean, he wouldn’t go out and kill him you know bc not allowed by everyone else (Jyuto, his s/o… the law)

But on the street and he sees him, he makes a fucking threat on his life

Or you know, just wreaks his house

Or beats him up… personally because he has all this pent up rage that he needs to let loose and additional Hypmic after the beating

Or has Jyuto have him arrested after Samatoki frames him for a crime, wreaks his house, beats him up and makes sure he’ll live in fear for the rest of his life

You hurt one MTC daughter, you have the whole MTC on you

Jyuto

Flat out finds blackmail of him and publishes it through an anonymous name because he has connections

Like not just crime blackmail, but actual incriminating blackmail of like humiliating pictures, stories

And the cheating story doesn’t make the front page with his daughter’s name on it, but the other girl’s name on it, also humiliating her

The victim is unknown and all and the story circulates with help with his connections and blackmail of his own

He also arrests him for crimes he didn’t commit and lets him fester there with the worst fucking inmates ever

And when he gets out, MTC will be on his heels

Samatoki would be out for killing, well sort of

Jyuto would make the law processes as hard as possible

Riou would just be a silent presence with his training

Riou

He wouldn’t react that bad, but then he would also be sent into the rage and has to go to the gym to cool off or punch some trees

Riou like setting traps right? Well, Riou sets traps. Riou fucking like finds out his schedule and has Jyuto make fake contracts that the guy would sign, or fake deliveries of drugs

And the guy would end up getting arrested and Riou would be there to beat him up while in the jail cell

Or tbh, kidnap him and place him in the middle of the woods where he would have to fucking survive on his own

No help will be given where no one can can hear him scream

Ramuda

You just fucked with the wrong division

But Ramuda would do it all on his own, and everyone is honestly fooled by his facade

So when is daughter comes up to him crying, saying the entire cheating thing, Ramuda just consoles her and cheers her up by going out and having a meal and all, but then he would have a plan in mind

He could bring the other two, but he wants the satisfaction of him doing it by himself, and he has a ton of connections and he knows how to play

So he would work on the blackmail, the small inconveniences, and also the fucking threats mailed to him, and his bank account emptying, the loss of friends, the eviction notices, the fake news and rumours spreading about him generally just ruining his life while he just watches from above and sees his daughter party about her ex having a miserable life

Oh and wardrobe, completely ruined

Gentaro

he will comfort his daughter and like tell her truths and reassure her of all the things and on the spot write a funny poem

An author will write

So he will write and publish so much shit, and most of his raps will be dedicated to hating on him

And he will publish stories that are lies, but written so well that everyone believes them, like think Reynolds Pamphlet except fake

So there’s an entire controversy about him and he keeps adding fuel to the fire by asking Ramuda to help him get the message across

And one day he will fucking tear him down with the worst and most painful rap of all that would leave him nearly insane and do you really want to cross him

Dice

Please don’t mess with Dice either

He will flat out, with no restraints, go after the guy the moment the daughter tells him

He will drag said guy back to the house and force him to apologise to her, but of course before that he would really beat him up within an inch of his life

And he’s honestly going to use hypnosis mic and really kill his mind and beat him so hard

All he wants is a better life for his daughter and not to be tossed aside like scrap

So yeah he’s furious as hell with no one to restrain him, and I really think he’s so strong that the punches fuelled with adrenaline are gonna hurt to the different level

Jakurai

Ill-doc

No really, do you want to mess with the assassin?

I mean, to his daughter, the usual comforting and the chill and the hugging

But that night, good lord someone should really send help to that guy

Jakurai loves process, that’s what he shares with Ramuda, so he does the thing where threats are placed everywhere and it drives him crazy

Think like batman but, with a real endgame kind of goal

and at the end, the guy will find himself cornered with Jakurai kind of just behind him like a shadow

Ill-DOC comes back with the kind of bone breaking that’s permanent, and it keeps him quiet because it leaves the promise for more

Or worse, injections that don’t kill, but flow like acid and burn for a long long time

Doppo

Calls up Jakurai

Or he deals with it himself, though he wouldn’t be so confrontational about it and would be a mess first

But when the guy starts to be condescending, he stops apologising

Because no one, condescends his daughter, he can take anything hurled at him, but once you start on ruining his daughter, you’re in a for a new treat

The things he’s about to do, he won’t apologise for any of it

The rap he blurts out is the most unapologetic thing that can happen, like really, the most unapologetic

Like Doppo with no barriers and he’s so brutal without worrying about being offensive or apologising

Hifumi

that boy is so dead

Hifumi isn’t the brute force kind of guy, but in a suit, he can easily persuade the guy to go drink with him in a bar

And Hifumi can charm him into another drink and another drink and another drink until he is ruined drunk

Completely ruined drunk that he does so many stupid things and Hifumi lets him

He even brings him to the host club to flirt and play with the girls, all the while Hifumi takes pictures with the guy’s fucking phone, posts them and lets everyone see them

T.D.D VS D4

(Note: this song contains spoilers for track 5.)

Ibuki: Yamada Ichiro…  The Dirty Dawg… I’m sending all of you to hell. 

Ichiro: Bring it on. Let’s settle this! 

[All]

The time’s come to settle this

Time to find out who’s really stronger

This storm won’t blow over so easy

So let’s enjoy this battle to the fullest

A back and forth with our lives on the line–

That’s the real thrill of war

This storm won’t blow over so easy

So let’s enjoy this battle to the fullest

Jakurai: The way you move… Were you a soldier?

Jyobu: So pleased to finally meet you. Assassin known as ill-DOC.

Jakurai: I admit I’m not fond of being called by that name.

[Jyobu]

I’ve finally met you, the man, the legend

The man I respected from the bottom of my heart

And the man I’ve always wanted to fight

Now let us see this battle through

The legendary assassin 

Who never spared a target, ill-DOC

Show me your true face, the monster inside

Let me hear your devil’s song

Jyobu: Just as I’d thought. The legends were true. Come and kill me. I’ve dreamed of dying at the hand of a conqueror like you. 

Jakurai: My deepest apologies, but I won’t be killing anyone. 

Jyobu: Is that the truth?

Jakurai: I no longer want to hurt anyone.

Jyobu: Don’t want to hurt anyone? Don’t joke! 

[Jyobu]

You won’t kill? You don’t want to hurt? 

I don’t want to hear that here

You’re an assassin, aren’t you?

How many people have you put in their graves?

Men like us who thirst for blood

Have crimson written into our very genes

My hands are bloody red

And I won’t hesitate to stain them again

[Jakurai] 

I’ve claimed countless lives

Cut off countless final prayers

And my penance for those sins 

Is to save even just a few more lives

This is the answer I’ve arrived at 

After facing down countless enemies

It is because there is no end to my penance

That I must impose it upon myself endlessly

[Jyobu]

You and I are the same

The shape is different but the purpose is the same

No man could change that much–

Stories can’t reverse their flow

If you really seek to cause no harm, 

Then why did you take Mic in hand?

Nothing has changed, just the shape of the weapon

A ‘you’ without bloodlust isn’t ‘you’ at all

[Jakurai] 

Humans are unseemly creatures

That’s what makes them precious

And I cannot forgive the senseless violence 

Of extinguishing those lives

That is why I fight now, 

The purpose I must fulfill

I stand in order to topple abuse; 

In order to protect those precious to me

Jyobu: You say you don’t want to hurt anyone, but your rap is quite aggressive. 

Jakurai: My apologies. I simply believed it was unnecessary to hold back against those who’d hurt my friend.

Ibuki: Now, Yamada Ichiro… Time to atone for your sins.

Ichiro: Answer me first! What did I do to you?

Ibuki: Not me. My brother! 

Ichiro: Brother? 

[Ibuki]

My brother was crushed by his debts, 

And every day he got chased down by you

And in the end his body gave out on him 

And he just up and died

Sure, my brother was a piece of shit, 

That was never gonna change

But even if he was shit, he was my precious family, 

My one and only brother

Ichiro: You… You’re Yagasaki Hayato’s little brother!?

Ibuki: It’s your fault my brother’s dead!

Ichiro: Wait a second! I–! 

Ibuki: You what? Don't tell me you did nothing wrong, Yamada Ichiro!

[Ibuki]

You weren’t wrong? Fuck off with that nonsense

That’s not your sin? Fuck off! 

I can’t stand you acting like you don’t know you’ve sinned!

You used to be the one abusing the weak, 

Living like the devil would

And now you’re playing the beloved hero? 

I’ll make you pay for that hypocrisy with your life

Samatoki: Don’t even think about it you piece of shit!

Ichiro: Samatoki-san?

Samatoki: Hey, Ichiro. You don’t seem too hot.

Ichiro: Samatoki-san, your wound–

Samatoki: Worry about yourself first. These bastards really got the jump on you. You can’t change the past. So take responsibility for it! Your best memories and your worst deeds, all of that makes up your life!

Ichiro: I’m responsible… for all of it? All of it! I’m sorry, Samatoki-san! I’m fine now. 

Samatoki: Took you long enough.

Seigen: Damn it. How the hell’s Samatoki here? Hey, I’m outta here. I’m meeting up with Rindo. 

Ichiro: You damn–

Samatoki: I’ll take care of him. You beat this bastard down.

Ibuki: Now all the distractions are finally gone.

Ichiro: Yeah. Let’s settle this. Put our past to rest!

[Ibuki]

Settle the score? 

All you should be doing is repenting for your past

If only you weren’t here, my life would be a completely different thing

My brother’s debts fell on me; 

To pay them back, I committed any crime

Give back my brother! Give back my life! 

It’s time for you to repent!

Ichiro: You’re right. I’m the dirtiest damn guy there is. I shook down money from the weak in order to live how I wanted. 

Ibuki: So you finally admit it!

Ichiro: Yeah, I admit it. That’s why you have to face your past, too!

Ibuki: What!?

Ichiro: You blame everything on your past, and won’t acknowledge your weakness, so you’ll never beat me. I’ll never lose to someone like you!

[Ichiro]

I admit it, I’m a piece of shit too, 

The biggest there is

But even then I can’t admit defeat, 

Can’t let you win in times like this

When the people I care about are hurt, 

I can’t back down, won’t back down

If I backed down now 

I wouldn’t even be worthy of being shit

[Ibuki] 

Shut up! 

Shit like you doesn’t get to preach to me!

[Ichiro]

Yeah, I was the worst of the worst–

No, maybe I still am

But I have to keep on living with that burden, 

Face my own life head-on

If you don’t accept your past you can’t move forward,

Can’t even see the present

You can’t live making everything somebody else’s fault, 

It’s your own life, stop running away

You’ve gotta make a tomorrow that’s better than today

So come back when you can face yourself too

Ibuki: Face my past? There’s nothing but ash. After I lost my brother, I drowned myself in crime. If I look back, it’s so dark I can’t see a thing!

Ichiro: Then look forward!

Ibuki: Forward?

Ichiro: You can’t change the past. But you can change the future. 

Seigen: You damn immortal bastard…

Samatoki: You still wavin’ that thing around?

Seigen: You serious right now? This thing’s strongest when you use it with a Mic. And strength is justice!

[Seigen]

Everybody’s too damn stupid around here, 

Too naive, these word’re gonna end it

The ends justify the means, 

Get there however the hell you want

There’s no point if you don’t win

‘Cuz the winners lead this world

I fight with both a Mic and a gun

You piss me off and you’re goin’ down

Seigen: You scared? You can start begging if you are.

Samatoki: Okay. Shoot me. Your bullets ain’t gonna kill me. Don’t underestimate me!

[Samatoki] 

Strength is justice, sure, that’s right

There’s no meaning in losing, sure, that’s right

But when you throw away your pride 

That’s the end of you as a man

I live by my own creed, 

And by that creed I’m gonna kill you

You know why I use the damn Mic they forced on us? 

That’s ‘cuz of my pride

I handle this Mic better than anybody

I’ll use their own tool against them 

And prove I’m just

Seigen: Damn it!

[Samatoki] 

No fuckin’ way I’m losin’ 

Against a guy who threw away his pride

A man can’t fight without pride, 

That’s why you’re gonna lose

Who do you think I am? 

I’m the center of this world

Get outta my way you idiot, 

I’m Samatoki-sama you bastard

Samatoki: Half-assed bastard. Made me overdo it. If the stitches pull, Nemu’s gonna get mad at me again. 

Rindo: My oh my. They’re all useless after all. 

Ramuda: Oh? You’re pretty calm for a guy who had all his friends taken out.

Rindo: They’re not my friends. They’re tools I need in order to achieve my goals. 

Ramuda: How heartless! That’s why the ladies threw you away, y’know! Huh? Was I not supposed to say that? Y’know, that you used to be their dog…

Rindo: You found out?

Ramuda: But too bad! The friends you chose all got done in!

Rindo: Friends… Stupid word. The second you start using it, you’ll get thrown away. Even by your beloved Chuuouku.

Ramuda: Really. You’re a bad one, mister.

Rindo: Now. Let me explain to you just how cruel the world really is!

[Rindo]  

You’re a little stupid, replacement, 

So let me give you a little test

The truth steps up for showtime 

And after that I’ll go in for the overkill

I gave my everything in those fights, 

I pledged my everything to them

The Party of Words only took this country 

Because of what I did for them

But they threw me away, 

Left me in my worst nightmare

Friends, trust, reliance, bonds:

That day I learned they’re all made up

It’s only about if you can be used–

That’s all there is to human relations

The world’s full of fake relationships 

All destined to die in the dark

Rindo: Look. Even if you fall, no one’s gonna come save you! Friends and trust… They don’t exist! 

Ramuda: You’re right. That’s what I think, too. But if you look hard enough, you might actually find them. 

Rindo: What?

Jakurai: I’m sorry I’m late. Are you all right? 

Ramuda: Mmm. Just barely?

Ichiro: Don’t touch my friend you dirty bastard!

Samatoki: Hey, Ramuda, I’ve got an ache in my stomach so let’s finish this quick. 

Ramuda: Ichiro? Samatoki? 

Jakurai: Amemura-kun. Leave them to us. We’ll leave him to you.

[Ichiro] If anybody lays a hand on my friends 

[Samatoki] Doesn’t matter who they are, they’re goin’ down

[Jakurai] 

You’ve challenged the wrong enemy–

In just a few moments your tears will prove that

[Ichiro] Yo, we’re the Dirty Dawg

[Samatoki] And our rhymes’re top class

[Jakurai] Your prescription is a bit of a powerful poison

[Ichiro, Samatoki, Jakurai] Anyone who gets in our way gets kicked to the curb

Ramuda: Looks like my friends were stronger than your tools.

Rindo: There’s no one worth a damn around here!

Ramuda: Let’s settle our score, too! Mis~ter!

Rindo: Stupid kid. Don’t get ahead of yourself!

[Rindo] 

Watch how you talk to me brat, 

I’m about to send you down to hell

The world’s not as kind as you think

There’s no point in trusting anyone

Friends, trust, reliance, bonds–

The more I hear about it the more I hurt

You won’t be able to endure 

The despair behind these words 

[Ramuda]

You’re just like my mirror image

We’re pretty similar, you and me

Friends and trust, I don’t believe in them either, 

If I can’t use them then I don’t need them!

I understand just how you think, 

Know it so well it hurts

But sorry to say my wounds are light–

There’s no way I’m gonna succumb like you

[Rindo] 

Betrayal is inevitable when dealing with people, 

Even the strongest bond will one day decay

Even if you rely on others

When you die, you’ll still die alone

Watching these fake bonds makes me mad; 

I’ll use everyone and make it to the top

I don’t need friends or trust, 

We have no choice but to live with our loneliness

[Ramuda]

You and I are definitely alike, 

But there’s one thing that must be different

I won’t go so far as to say what it is, 

But you and I are total opposites!

That’s why you won’t beat me, 

And why I won’t turn into you

You’ve fallen into the darkness, 

But my future won’t be like yours!

Rindo: They’ll betray you too. They will throw you away! You’re just a tool to Chuuouku too. 

Ramuda: Yeah. I know that. But I’ll be fine. Because… I have the greatest posse by my side!
