#koyama is a dumbass

[russenoire]

in koyama's defense, the awakening lab's database was wrong. ritsu's data was in it under his ani's name...

but yeah, that whole confrontation happened because the dumb muscle couldn't follow directions. which were literally to find the strongest esper kids and kidnap those. if you're sent to steal a boy and his brother beats the snot and piss out of you? you take his brother, no matter what your picture tells you. it's not rocket science.

Number of times Ritsu's name was said aloud in the alleyway: 14

Number of times Ritsu calls Mob "Nii-san": 19

Number of times Koyama checks to make sure he has the right kid: 1

AND HE STILL GOT IT WRONG

I think this is my fave Koyama I’ve drawn so far. Dumbass.

Utsukushii Kare Retrospective Blurb

Although we're worlds apart I'd cross the stars for you In the heart of a sleepless moon I'll be with you forever

What a friggin series. Like well done.

I had gotten a bit bored and mostly just unimpressed with the BLs I had been watching then along came Utsukushii Kare

I love strong characterization and really leaning into those archetypes 

I love how much both Hira and Kiyoi both had such low self-esteem that it made them both dumbasses wrt their feelings

a haunting sense of yearning and longing for connection

the scoring was top notch

I want so much more of this world and these characters and this music

poor Koyama, he did his best

also this was Yusei’s first role, phenomenal

it’s very hard for me to understand how anyone could not see Kiyoi’s interest and ultimately desire for Hira

Hira and his inner Kira 

what a good starer you are Riku  

3rd favorite series, basically after my first month of so of BL’s, I was pretty locked in with my top series and Utsukushii Kare just rocketed to third place

Catching Up Meme

My sib didn’t wanna tag anybody but I’m gonna take their invitation to fill it out anyway :3

3 ships: Oh man. Uh. Since I already have some of my ships on this post, I guess I’ll do different ones here.  1. Reigen Arataka/Serizawa Katsuya (Mob Psycho 100) - I love imagining a really long slow burn for these two, and a lot of mutual pining. They’re just two adults trying to adult, it’s cute. Another ship from mp100 is, obvs, Megumu  Koyama/Yusuke Sakurai. Dumbass morosexuals in love. 

2. Zagreus/Thanatos (Hades game) - I’m not like super hardcore into shipping for this game yet (meaning: I’m not seeking out fanfic), that could change, but the childhood friends to lovers trope strikes again. Thanatos’ super obvious pining is adorable. Megaera/Zagreus is also choice, of course. Persephone/Hades/Nyx is very cute. Achilles/Patroclus, of COURSE. And I know I’m in the minority here, but I think Zagreus’ crush on Achilles is adorable.

3. I haven’t really been into a lot of fandoms lately, rip. Too busy with school. Uhh here’s an underrated ship: Zuko/Jin (Avatar: The Last Airbender) - Look, she knew he was a firebender and still liked him. They had a ton of cute chemistry. They deserved to be happy together. 

last movie: Hotel Transylvania. My current project is about vampires, and I needed some visual reference for tropes, shots, and composition. Can I just say, random thought, but while I’ve never been a huge fan of Adam Sandler he was killing it in this movie? I’ve never seen as much acting range as I did in Hotel T.

currently reading: Nothing more interesting than textbooks, I’m afraid.

currently watching: Playthroughs of Hades, ngl. I let them run in the background while I work, it’s fun.

currently consuming: A pumpkin spice latte :b

currently craving: A break from school, so I can draw my ocs without guilt unu;;

I wanna tag @omishu bc i’m curious how you’re doing! And of course, any of my mutuals or other friends -- I’d love to read your responses.

Koyamae: Hey so we have to follow some weird generational rules, have a big family and be controlled by a dumbass with too much time on her hands. Is that cool?

Atlantic: This is fine :)

2017.10.31 PON! 1/3

I still need to finish watching “Okusma wa Kamisama” and I have so many issues with it already. But first PON! promo. The creepy JE-obsessed reporter interviewed them and asked them a few questions related to the show. First he asked about something popular among the members lately and Koyama pointed to Tegoshi sending his pup pics. Lately there’s even more since he has a new pup. Tegoshi got all excited and weird and they all tried to act cold but who you foolin? You love the dumbass.

Having a bunch of Koyama thoughts, particularly about the early part of his and the other Scars' redemption arcs following the disbanding of their division. As fun as it would be to write a fic about it I definitely don't have the time to do so, so! Text post it is.

When I was first watching S2, seeing Koyama among the group of former Scars who were trying to put their lives back together definitely surprised me a little. "The Scars did shitty things" is a given, but when it comes to Koyama I feel like his wrongdoings are more...personal to a lot of the audience, if that makes sense. His fight with Mob--if you could even call it that--had this drawn out, visceral brutality to it that I don't think any of the Scars replicated, except maybe Muto. If Koyama got his ass kicked during the end of S1 and went poof along with said Chin Man and Miyagawa, I wouldn't have been surprised.

Don't get me wrong, I love where his arc ended up, and I think the Scars' stories fall in well with the messages the show was trying to convey. That change in him feels like a big leap to make, though, so it's been fun to try to fill in the gap. I'd imagine that transition period after the fall of the 7th division must've been...pretty messy(gonna ramble more about this under the cut)

The blanket explanation the Scars gave was how being beaten by a bunch of kids snapped them out of their flawed way of viewing the world, which makes sense—for the majority of them, anyway. But Koyama wasn’t around for the Great Reigen Roast of 2012–you could say the same for Terada, Takeuchi and Tsuchiya as well, but while all the Scars have been characterized with a certain immaturity towards society and the like, Koyama’s blaring faults directly clash against any kind of progression.

He’s the school bully that gets in trouble and only resolves to get revenge, that one little kid who’d refuse to ‘lose’ when playing make believe by coming up with all sorts of excuses. Judging by the way he’d lash out at any sign of his strength being questioned…I don’t think his pride would’ve let him have that swift moment of clarity like the others(even after being turned into a human ping pong ball by a middle schooler). Far from it as you could go, in fact—that humiliation would only make him double down. Not that the other Scars aren't drastically affected by the whole thing, of course, but Koyama…Koyama’s a prime candidate for making his frustration everyone else’s problem.

Hell I could even see him getting it into his dumbass head that he could find a place in Claw again if he just took down the ones that put an end to the 7th division. His fellow Scars who failed—well they just didn’t have the grit to fight their way past this setback, lost their teeth, but not him. He thinks he could succeed where they failed, and rise back to the top. Shallow as hell plan, painfully desperate, but it’s all he has now. I’m sure that would go sooooo well for him, especially when the rest of the Scars find out what he’s up to while they’ve been trying to fix their lives. Lmao.
