#like im going to mention it in jutos day but it wont be anything as deep as today lol

[akkivee]

ya ya ya minna genki??? we’ve arrived at day 12 and today we finish up another team!!! two more to go!!! but before we can even think about a team, it’s time for R-A-M-U-D-and-A!!! who’s that????

First impressions: PINK!!!!! CUTE!!!!!!!

Current impressions: jesus kr have you made him suffer enough????? you’ve taken his purpose away, gave it to his rival, beat him up and left him to die what more do you have in store for him????????? please lay off ramuda let him rest!!!!!!!

i see all the time in male idol series that the tiny pink haired dude is often aligned with the antagonistic force in the series, so i wasn’t too surprised ramuda turned out to be with chuuoku in the beginning. what i was surprised by was how miserable he was to eventually by how cruelly ramuda was treated by them. the very blatant ramuda pandering the series has made me a bit of bitter betty, i’m not going to lie, but ramuda is carrying the most!!!! this battle season has him fighting for his life like his stakes are the highest!!!!!!!!!!!

Favorite thing:

his fashion!!!!!! i actually really like all of his outfits we’ve seen him in. even if it’s the strange but cute patchwork crop jacket to the wildly outlandish long hot pink hoodie decorated with roses and bloody parrot feathers. or really, especially these outfits? his everyday outfit has to be simple for regular drawing reasons but compare it to his tdd clothes. compare his tdd clothes to his extra wardrobe clothes! these outfits just scream that they’re asserting his individuality and that he has one in the first place. it’s neat 😌

Least favorite:

the back to back please pity ramuda mood kr adopted lol but that’s all i have to say on that

What i want to see from this character:

what happens after! who ramuda will be! if everything goes well for him, and he’s freed from chuuoku and is capable of self sustaining life, what will ramuda do with his life?

Favorite moments:

1) his spotify radio has some of my favorite moments! it came out before we had canon confirmation that ramuda was a clone so when he casually just mentions that he had been informed of what school was, it was like 🤯 at the time lol

2) also, the scene when the only thing ramuda could say about jakurai was that he was a good person in the know your enemy drama track lmao

3) and then scene where ramuda has to fight his clones was chilling. kudos to his seiyuu for giving each ramuda a distinctive ramuda voice, especially when you can hear him struggle to perform live with it sometimes!!!

i shouldn’t even list this here because it’s not necessarily my favorite, just one i found interesting, and because it’s hella inaccessible but in the fp/mtr stage play, ramuda makes a very damning decision to frame jakurai assaulting friends of the auxiliary team, asakusa. this comes after ramuda found out the team intends to forfeit their rap battle against shinjuku because they genuinely like jakurai and think he’ll change the world for the better.

the utter tantrum ramuda threw wasn’t only directed at his animosity towards jakurai but how boring the battle would be like that just reminded me of where ramuda started at the beginning of the entire story. because it was really fcked up of ramuda to mess with this entire team just for his own amusement and for getting back at jakurai. fling posse, while on chuuoku’s orders, did come together because ramuda thought they interesting and he really didn’t care about gentaro and dice outside of how interesting they were.

hhhhhhhhhhh i’m getting carried away with this, i just wasn’t expecting a callback to the way ramuda was as a person and how he used to treat his team before he considered them his true posse

Headcanon:

Ramuda’s body is immortal with a regular supply of his candy.

Ships:

ramugen........ is really cute........ i like how they’re partners in crime messing with dice even tho ramuda tends to believe in gentaro’s lies just like dice....... the way they’re learning to respect each other through their intense desire to know who the other is is a lot of fun........ i’m partial to fling poly and i don’t mind ramuda and rei as a ship!!
