#most of these involve tiny rui because he is such a little guy to me

[kenziedrawz]

okay since I have been procrastinating on writing have some Sizeshifter!Rui head canons.

Most of the time, Rui likes to shrink down and pretend that he's working on a giant robot. Though for practical reasons it's for getting up close and personal with the mechanics of the robot to make sure that there are no faults in it.

Rui only decides to grow in SEKAI, as he doesn't want to cause the panic that usually happens when people see a giant guy walking around. Miku and the others are very accepting of this, Rin and Len tend to use him as a jungle gym.

The only person that knew about Rui's ability before Tsukasa eventually had to find out due to an accident was Nene( And Mizuki because i forgot about theme for a moment). Will I elaborate on what this 'accident' is? later.

Since i am a hopeless Ruikasa-er, Rui sometimes gives Tsukasa tiny fairy kisses, and Tsukasa WILL do the same to get back at Rui while he's a giant.

Rui has slept through classes and skipped school on accident in Tsukasa's pocket due to Tsukasa not wanting to wake him and Rui staying up a few nights to finish a project for the troupe's next show.

Rui's had a device on his neck to help regulate his shifting since he was young, It was given to him by his father, who was also a sizeshifter.

Now, to elaborate on the 'accident'. There's two paths I can go with this, one I've already started writing and isn't as angsty as the other one, and in the other one Rui almost breaks his arm.

So the first route for the accident is that Rui's regulator breaks while he's at school and he rushes off to go hide somewhere after one of his classmate's comment that it looked like Rui got a bit taller. Tsukasa eventually finds a panicked, growing Rui in the school bathrooms after catching a glimpse of Rui rushing past his classroom. After calming Rui down Tsukasa spends the entire day with Rui resting in his pocket.

As for the other route, Rui gets a part of his arm stuck in the mechanics of a robot he's working on while tiny and Nene isn't available to help him. And his parents are away on a business trip so Rui's either stuck here until Nene gets back from her date(yeah), or he could call someone for help at the risk of them knowing his secret. In case you couldn't tell he opts to pick Tsukasa and Tsukasa finds out that way. Though he thinks that Rui invented a shrink ray first before discovering the truth.

I have a unique Top Ten list for ya: Top Ten Female Tokusatsu Heroes.

A topic near and dear to my heart!  Yes, I admit I have a weakness for the women of tokusatsu but then, anyone who follows my blog for long would realize that pretty quick. So, I’m pretty glad to get a question like this I can indulge that love with.

I’m going to limit this to one heroine pet series though I thank you again for not limiting it to one franchise.  That makes this a lot more fun for me and I can bounce around as I see fit. Still, it’s going to be pretty Super Sentai heavy for obvious reasons.

10. Konomi Amagi from Ultraman Mebius played by Misato Hirata

A former preschool teacher before joining GUYS Japan, Konomi joined the team for the sole purpose of protecting all of the children of Japan.  She’s kind, a bit shy and has a love for cute monsters including Miclas and a tiny version of the Ultraseven foe Eleking. She generally stays at the base working as an operator during missions to keep communication lines open between field agents but she goes into the field when they need her to use the Maquette Monster system which creates artificial monsters that can fight for a limited amount of time.  Miclas only listens to her.

9. Anri from Special Megabeast Investigator Juspion played by Kiyomi Tsukada

This may be a cheat considering she’s a robot but I love Anri.  While most robots on TV are cold, emotionless and stilted, Anri is none of those.  She’s excitable, passionate and goofy.  Of course, she has a few robotic problems like the inability to float and freezing up every now and then. Even if she is a bit silly, she keeps Juspion focused on his mission and not distracted by every pretty woman who walks by.

8. Sara from Choushinsei Flashman played by Youko Nakamura

Unlike Anri above, Sara is human but raised on an icy planet in the Flash system. She’s a bit cool and intellectual and the smartest member of the Flashman team.  She does have an emotional side though, wanting to find her parents back on Earth.  She’s also good friends with her team member Lou. When it comes to battle, she can analyze the attacks and weaknesses of her foes to better aid her team in the fight.

7. Hisako Koyama from Special Rescue Police Winspector played by Sachiko Oguri

Hisako is here because I just love every episode she’s a major part of in Winspector.  She’s not one of the suited heroes but instead a coffee shop owner who is a secret member of the team. I can’t really put a finger on why I like her so much.  Maybe it’s her super late 80s fashion sense.  Maybe it’s her inability to carry through on her plans with her little brother because of her Winspector responsibilities that makes her so relatable.  Maybe it’s just that she’s a tough woman who isn’t defined by being tough.  Any way you slice it, I really like Hisako.  

6. Ami Mizuno from Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon played by Rika Izumi

I don’t talk about the 2003 Live-Action version of Sailor Moon much and that’s a shame because it is my favorite adaptation of Naoko Takeuchi’s magical manga masterpiece. Chief among the reasons why is that version’s take on Ami/Sailor Mercury.  She was Usagi’s first companion and he closest friend on the team which made the story arc where Ami was corrupted to evil all the more heartbreaking.  I have always been a fan of Sailor Mercury so having such a great live action version ensured her a spot on this list.

5. Rei Tachibana from Kagaku Sentai Dynaman played by Sayoko Hagiwara

I had to include a Sayoko Hagiwara character here because I love her performance in just about everything she’s been in and there is no more iconic role for her than as Dyna Pink. She’s an inventor who dreams of creating a machine to facilitate communication between humans and animals.  She’s also a world class fencer and though she hates fighting, she does so for the sake of the dreams of others and protecting her own ideals.  

4.  Rui Takada from Ultraman X played by Haruka Momokawa

The second character from an Ultra Series to appear on this list and the most recent heroine here is the enthusiastic engineer from Xio. She’s a teenage genius who invents a lot of tech for the team and loves monsters.  I just love her enthusiasm and smarts, she’s also tough when she has to be and has a thing for Ultraman Zero.  She loves the bad boys.

3.  Commander Aya Odagiri from Choujin Sentai Jetman played by Mikiko Miki

The first female Commander of a Sentai team, Aya Odagiri was a tough, no nonsense military officer of the Earth Defense Sky Force. Though Ryu was the team leader, he took his orders from her and she was not the kind to brook any kind of disagreement with her orders.  You just have to love anyone who can boss around super powered heroes with only her authority and force of personality to back it up.

2. Ahim De Famille from Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger played byYui Koike 

Ahim is a Space Princess without a kingdom, her home taken from her by the forces of Zangyack.  Yet, she isn’t bitter or hardened by her loss.  She’s the heart of her team, the voice of mediation when things get rough and the one everyone can go to for support and reassurance. When you need someone to negotiate, she’s your choice.  She’s also pretty awesome at kicking butt in a floofy dress. She is the best pink ever, the pinkest pink who ever pinked.

1. Tsuruhime from Ninja Sentai Kakuranger played by Satomi Hirose

Coming as no surprise to anyone who knows me, I have to give the top spot to Tsuruhime.  She’s the reason Kakuranger is my all time favorite Super Sentai series. The actual leader of the team, she was the first woman to head a Sentai group.  She was also the most competent member and had a fantastic story arc involving the fate of her Father.  Considering the rest of her team, she had a job ahead of her holding that group together and keeping them focused on the task at hand.  This is a woman who could herd cats and get them to (mostly) behave.  I love Tsuruhime and always will!

Aside from the top spots, this is a highly subjective list from day to day.  This is how I feel right now as of this moment but these lists are always based on how I am feeling at that moment. Hope you enjoyed it though and thanks, as always, for the question!
