My desperate plea to anyone else who likes the 'found family' trope in anime...

...please, PLEASE check out the manga/anime March Comes In Like A Lion, so that I'll have more friends to gush over this incredible masterpiece with!! I honestly don't know where to begin with this, but one thing I can confidently say is that Sangatsu no Raion contains one of the absolute best anime/manga depictions around what it's like to suffer from depression and complex PTSD, as well as, how one can find the means to heal by leaning on others.

The protagonist -- Rei Kiriyama, a 17 year old when the story begins, and a professional shōgi player (i.e. Japanese version of chess) -- is one of the most nuanced main characters I've ever seen portrayed in any medium. His learning how to navigate the pressures of his career while also grappling with his childhood trauma (bullying, the death of his parents/sister in childhood and subsequent adoption into a new family, etc.) is so incredibly moving, and it's my sincere hope that the amazing anime that Shaft studio produced might one day continue on with the manga source material.

Many fans agree that Rei is autistic/autistic-coded, and the portrayal of Rei's alexithymia (something I really don't think we see enough of in media) in particular is done so well and with such care. That element of intentionality truly does extend to so many of the characters in this show as well.

Just look at Rei's adorable face...don't turn your back on him, I beg!!

Oh and if nothing else, his story arc of finding 'home' within the Kawamoto family is guaranteed to give you all the warm fuzzies.

OCtober Day 3: Old OC - ShioRin ⚠️The effects/flashes might hurt your eyes, so please watch with caution.

@amiahoshi and I's Haikyuu OC twins, Shiori and Rin. They walked, so KanaRumi could run-- just kidding, they walked so those mfs Shiki (Cloud Guardian) and Rei (Mist Guardian) could run.

Anyway, even after...s-seven...seven years (💀), I think this is still my magnum opus in terms of video editing, so I will always repost this every now and then (like right now). I don't even remember how I edited this. IIRC, the last solo Rin with the clean lines is by Sou!

A few more info & art below because they have a special place in my heart plus I feel nostalgic while trying to look at old art of them. 🥰🥰🥰

Kiriyama Rin: A student from Karasuno High and a member of its Girls’ Volleyball Team. She is also Shiori’s older twin sister.

Rin is usually a happy, cheerful and energetic person. She acts without giving a second thought and is always carefree. However, she is actually a person who finds it extremely difficult to express how she actually feels towards people, she acts happy to everyone, even those whom she hates.

Despite her love for volleyball, she doesn’t really have a motivation to become a professional player.

Kiriyama Shiori: A student from Aoba Johsai High. She is also Rin’s younger twin sister.

Because of her illness, Shiori is unable to play any type of sports that is physically taxing (which is almost all the sports). One thing that could be noted from her is her unusual in-depth understanding of volleyball, this is due to her curiosity for the said sport when she saw Rin all fired up and pouring lots of effort into it.

She could do well as a team manager, but she thinks she’s too unmotivated and it would be rude to her sister if she were to join in on her passion in that kind of uncaring way.

Their OCxCanon pair ft. mouse user Ein from 2016...

MAFIA AU ART FROM 2016...Ha, look what we have right now lmao

My sketch of them from 2020! That's ShikiRei at the back, don't mind them.

Then this is my last drawing of them from OC Week 2022! That's ShikiRei at the side, don't mind them.

Ignore the tug of war in art style/quality. I lowkey tried giving up art a few times in the middle but every time I come crawling back my art skill kinda resets so I have to relearn or just learn new shit each time 😭😭

More Infodump for no reason, I just want to yap about them: We got into some genderbending shenanigans for ShioRin at some point back then, and that's how ShikiRei was born. Then ShikiRei eventually developed into their own separate characters and we eventually shipped them with their opposite counterparts (ReixShiori & ShikixRin) sjhfvhdvfsh After a while, we locked them under a basement (we let them out sometimes when needed in an AU or when we need to bully Oikawa). After a few years, we needed OCs to fill up the Oniyanagi guardian vacant spots so we let them out of the basement for good. Now, they're KHR OCs, yippee! We're also using their voice claims for another pair of KHR OCs, but that's for tomorrow hehe

One of the saddest scenes in "March Comes in Like A Lion" was when Rei watched that documentary about the cuckoo's brood parasitism and his reaction was: "he's just like me, fr".
