#inazuma surprise

[yuesya]

Land! Sweet, sweet land!

Lumine almost feels as if she could cry in this moment. She shouldn’t have chosen that merchant vessel over Beidou’s Alcor and experienced crew. At the time, the merchant’s ship was leaving sooner –two entire weeks before Beidou was planning to set sail– and Lumine had only wanted to reach Inazuma as soon as possible in order to continue her search for her brother.

They’d been hit by a storm, and the ship had capsized. Fortunately, there were enough emergency rowboats for all members on board, even if the merchant’s goods had been a complete loss to the ruthless waves. Less fortunately… it had been several long days of drifting at sea, and their dwindling supplies weren’t about to last much longer.

“We’ve made it, Lumine!” Paimon cheers. Lumine nods firmly. “We’re alive!”

Alive, and in desperate need of aid. Lumine and a few of the other stronger sailors set out to explore a bit and get a better idea of their surroundings. Hopefully they’d come across some friendly locals who’d be able to extend a helping hand, or at least be willing to just tell them where they’d washed up on–

Someone’s there.

Another person! Lumine quickens her footsteps, even as waterlogged as she is.

“Excuse me–!”

Paimon flies ahead of her, chasing the figure that she’d glimpsed. “Wait! Wait, please, we’re just hapless travelers who –ack!”

“Paimon?” Urgency quickens her footsteps, and Lumine hurries to reach her companion. “You…”

Her voice dies in her throat.

There’s a young girl standing amidst the trees, with blue-white hair that appears almost silver beneath the sunlight. Her clothing is in the distinct fashion of Inazuman dress, a mix of soft blue and lilac colors flowing down her body. It’s almost enough to make Lumine acutely self-conscious of her own waterlogged state and haphazard appearance from days of floating out at sea–

But there’s a dark purple cloth tied over the girl’s face, covering her eyes. A blindfold. The girl is blind.

Blind, and yet she’d moved so smoothly and confidently over the rough terrain. Lumine had barely managed to glimpse her earlier, and if it hadn’t been for her coloring standing out so starkly against the verdant backdrop of the trees, she would’ve thought that she’d imagined it all in her head.

The girl raises her hand –the hand that’s holding onto the back of Paimon’s dress, “Is it yours?”

Paimon squirms. “I’m not an ‘it!’”

“Yes, Paimon is my friend,” Lumine nods firmly –and belatedly realizes that the girl probably can’t even see it. Wait. Is she really blind? The way she moved, the way she seemed aware of everything around her… didn’t really seem like the motions of a blind person…

The girl wordlessly releases her grip on Paimon; Paimon immediately returns to Lumine’s side, casting the girl an unsettled, suspicious look.

“Um…” Best to just get to the point, probably. “Could you possibly point us towards where the nearest settlement is, please?”

“Head south,” the girl raises a pale hand, the one that’s not holding the basket of strange purple grass as she points towards the direction to their left. “Watatsumi’s Bourou Village isn’t far from here. You’ll find it easily once you reach and follow the road.”

“Thank you!” That’s probably the best news that Lumine has heard ever since the shipwreck. “We really appreciate it, miss…?”

The girl remains silent. Lumine trails off awkwardly.

“… Erm, what should I call you?” Lumine ends up asking sheepishly. The girl is certainly strange, but she doesn’t sense any ill will from her. And she’d helped give directions easily enough; Lumine would like to have a name for the person who’d given them assistance.

“… Gojo," the girl says. "Call me Gojo.”

Happy birthday to everyone's favourite captain!

OK OK SO

Inazuma Eleven. Good anime about soccer. And like anime, its very interesting and cool and it's about the power of friendship! And all of the characters are very queer coded and nd coded and they're literally Team as A Family and Found Family.

The players are all superpowered and insane and i love them all dearly

Season 1 is about the main team getting into the FF, and them nearly dying along the way! The final team they had to face was a bunch of kids who were totally NOT drugged to be crazy strong (i say clenching my fists and griting my teeth) and those kids have a god complex

Season 2? Oh honey, this one is insane. TL;DR, a bunch of "Aliens" came down and started destroying schools, the main team went out on a mission to be the best team to beat these "Aliens"

In this season the following are canon/was implied;

Multiple characters having mental breaks

Child experimentations

Forced amnesia

Emotional manipulation

Gaslighting

Suicidal Ideations(??)

Survivals Guilt

Ptsd(?)

Plurality

Whatever the fuck Kiyama Hiroto has going on.

AND A LOT!!! OF OTHER STUFF!!

Season 3 (So far!) has been, pretty normal. Im nowhere near half way through but its been normal. And im scared about that.

Anwyays yeah, welcome to Inazuma Eleven. Its my silly little anime where everyone needs therapy

IT'S ABOUT SOCCER????????

CROSSFIRE SEEN FOR FIRST TIME IN 40 EPISODES

[dutybcrne]

Plot I need, either to happen in game or here: Traveler goin heckin Ape Shitt on sb bc they have had Enough of getting wrapped up in people’s messes and seeming running into dead end after dead end on their sibling, and the sb is just another who was nothing but cruel and self-serving to the point where it hurt the people of the nation as a whole, but someone else intervenes before Traveler can take things too far, offering them comfort and saving them from doing something potentially irredeemable/irreversible-

[yippeeeeestudios]

Do you guys think we’ll ever get a Inazuma eleven x beyblade collab.

[welcometoteyvat]

good ayato art could save me actually

[cocoa-nuts]

Fontaine dealing with primordial dragons and such have made me hyperfixate on enkanomiya lore again, which in turn has resulting in me gaining an extremely delusional hyperfixation on Fontaines lore. So please take this with like, not just a grain but a pile of salt. ALSO, Spoilers for the 4.1 trailer, areas relating to the fontaine world quest and very light blink and you miss it Enkanomiya lore and Lyneys Story Quest (nothing specific just refering to an aspect of it).

But anyways, I know that it is very obvious that Neuvillette is assumed/implied to be the Hydro dragon (which could explain Kokomis bizarre absence from enkanomiya related content + the more obvious hydro dragon will be reborn in the form of a human Enkanomiya lore) but there's also a very strong possibility he is an oceanid, potentially even the first oceanid.

Even beyond his animations looking very similar to oceanids, in the Institute of National Philosophy there are notes on Ocenids (titled Ancient Natural History Excepts) that "Some say that Egeria felt great sympathy for dragons" which is one potential reason for her first tear (which became the first oceanid). Considering how the trailer refers to Neuvillette as the "spokesperson for Fontaines past," that feels more like being the first oceanid (especially considering the first oceanids purpose was to comprehend all forms of life).

Again, Fontaine triggers my delusional theorizing, but considering how fontaine seems to be going deeper into characters lore and even making inconsistencies relevant in Lyneys quest, as well as purposefully having trailers imply different events than what actually happens in the quests. I feel like there is some potential here for a rug pull.

sakai's really going to talk about misogyny right
