Autistic Anime Boys Side A Round 1 Match 7

Propaganda:

Itona -

"his beautiful blank expressions mean everything to me <3 generally he's blunt in a way that people either find funny or rude, and he's very talented with electronics. he starts off working for one of the villains (due to tragic backstory reasons), but eventually gets adopted into the world's most neurodivergent friend group - which is in turn part of the world's most neurodivergent class of middle schoolers.

one of the core parts of assassination classroom is that even though the class the story focuses on is the worst academically at their school, it's not because they're bad students or bad people, it's because they were all dragged down by personal circumstance or couldn't thrive in a traditional school environment, and they had nobody who tried to help them up or understand their situation. when they're given a teacher who truly cares about them, and takes time to connect with them all personally, they improve a lot.

also here's a gif of him sneezing like a cat:

Souichi -

"His special interest is the shamisen and he's considered a prodigy. His sister also plays and when she asks him what he thought of this or that performance, he uses synesthesic metaphors only he understands. He has rituals!! I might be watching the wrong animes but it was my first time seeing a character with rituals!! On the way to a competition he has to kick the same rock all the way from his house to the venue!! When he starts eating somewhere, he has to finish there, he cannot move until he's finished. Once he sat down to eat next to a guy he wanted to be his friend (he saw a shamisen player eating alone and went. my friend now) and then the guy just. left and Souichi was there like :( but I have to finish my rice :( but he's my friend :( anyway he's so me I love him so much + he's mega cute. Gonna go rewatch, now, goodbye."

MASHIRO NO OTO (2010-2022) by ragawa marimo

[jestertheblackmage]

I’m hyper fixating on things again

God they made Setsu and Wakana so pretty in Mashiro No Oto. How can I not be motivated to draw art of this sad pretty boy.

Those Snow White Notes Review

I started this anime earlier this year and then promptly forgot about it. Last night I finally finished it and here are my thoughts:

I have to say I sobbed for a total of over an hour after finishing it. The finale broke me as a musician. To see Setsu *finally* figure out his sound and play for himself in the second half of his performance JUST to have that trashed, spoken down to, utterly rejected was heartbreaking. There aren't enough words to describe the anguish I feel for him ( and myself..)

I love the shamisen very dearly, and one day, want to learn how to play it and spend a decent amount of my time researching and listening to it. I found the performances in the group categories to be so interesting and beautiful. I could listen to it all day long.

Though there were a lot of dialogue dumps of information and the writing and over dramatization too much- seeing the group of friends communicate with each other and grow even as beginner shamisen players was so much fun. And to see the hard work pay off, placing 3rd WAS impressive even if bittersweet and disappointing.

Setsu's father and mother are abhorrent and selfish people, in their attempts to puppet Setsu because of his closeness with his late grandfather and his sound. They're both stuck in the past and treat him terribly for how hard he has worked and effort he's put in. Kamiki Seiryuu's words are worth noting, because he is being honest but encouraging, in his own "professional" way because Setsu truly did an amazing job and has a mercurial sound but needs to hone his playing BY performing more.

After I *emotionally* recover I'll be sure to read the manga because I NEED to know how it ends and if he truly is able to move forward because perhaps...that would help me to as well....?

Morally Questionable Anime Milfs Side B Round 1 Match 11

Propaganda:

Umeko -

"[GODLESS SCREAM] SINGER AND CEO WHO IS HOT HOT AND HAS TWO SONS. I think it is very moral to let your sons be raised by your father to further your company and make money and then try to reel your son in, disregarding his own wants, and calling him pathetic when he doesn't get first place in a music contest.

Do I think she has girl power? Damn Right. Did she use it correctly? Not exactly, no. 100% would fuck her anyway tho."

Atsuko -

"okay listen she does care about her son very very much (and she's very hot), but there is also the matter of the Alcoholism, and she’s rarely ever in the house (son is in middle school) and also. it’s briefly shown that she’s got like… a Lot of yakuza buddies. not necessarily a parenting thing (and honestly kinda badass), but… you Probably don’t wanna be bringing organized crime near your kid. also Atsuko if you’re listening i’m free Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, any and every day you’ll have me,"

i really wish there were more music anime out there

[arafolet]

¿Ha sido tanto el impacto que hasta he perdido la noción del tiempo? ¿O es que el maldito olor a mandarina del aromatizante que usan en el baño ya me está dejando estúpida...?

Cualquiera sea el caso, sigo sin superar el final de Mashiro no oto... Empiezo a preocuparme.

Lo último que recuerdo me ha causado tal impacto fue el final de Voltron, ¡FINAL HORRIBLE, POR CIERTO! Aunque sí fue un final... Lo que vivo ahora es, más que un final abierto, una masacre emocional.

Ni siquiera es que haya encariñado tanto con el protagonista. Aunque Setsu sí necesita de muchos abrazos.

Ahh~ mi pobre niño ywy 💔

Y aunque sus padres son la más perfecta descripción de escoria, tenemos a un familiar que sí vale la pena mencionar:

Wakana nii-chan, como te amo 💕

Que parezca de 30 cuando no tiene ni 20 es un chiste recurrente, pero es el hermano mayor que siempre quise. Cuida de Setsu a su manera, sin ser invasivo o atormentarlo con sermones asfixiantes una y otra vez.

Quizá sí fue un poco permisivo o ¿conformista? al dejar que Setsu se fuera solo a Tokio teniendo apenas 16 años. Pero tampoco habría podido hacerlo cambiar de opinión.

Que Hosoya sea su seiyuu no tiene nada que ver en el asunto, claro que no. Obviamente no (?)

O que AMBOS HABLEN CON ACENTO

Ay~ no puedo~ soy débil a los personajes que hablan con acento y////y 💕
