i am like. a little obsessed with manga natori. not gonna lie. every time i see him i’m like 👁️👁️

Natsume has spent the past two seasons running himself ragged, often to the point of collapse or near-death, while trying to help the people around him. And yet he still believes this??

[darkicedragon]

Sometimes I wonder if Natsume would stop mentioning things he sees, because a person in the water or a kappa is pretty obviously going to be a youkai, but then an umbrella in the sky or a kid on the bridge is something that could actually be normal. Not. That he really has a good scope for what ‘should’ be seen. 

But then, he’s trying to seem normal and talking about his day, rather than being seen staring blankly at an empty space again. -- I WANT TO SEE MORE OF TANUMA CARRYING NATSUME ON HIS BACK WHEN HE INEVITABLY COLLAPSES OR GETS ATTACKED AGAIN, PLEASE. -- Seriously. Natsume gets strangled SO MUCH. Or getting tied down with rope. He needs to permanently wear a scarf by this point to hide the bruising. Or start using make up. -- Can regular people smell Hinoe’s smoke? Does Touko think Natsume’s smoking in his room when she’s around? -- I do love the slow gathering of Natsume’s friends, even if most of them can’t see anything close to what he can, but still want to help him. <3 -- Natsume losing his spiritual sight arc is still something I love, because you get to see Nyanko curled up around him, yessss. Definitely doesn’t care about the tasty human, nope.

in class!

#pretty sure it's illegal for him to even nap without at LEAST a 50% chance of something supernatural happening#anyway continues to be 10/10 so far (on the sakura tree painting ep now)

okay yeah it's not like school is a safe haven but its common fanon (and I think also referenced in canon? been a while since I rewatched) to show Natsume passed the fuck out as his desk, lol

started watching natsume yuujinchou. currently: ep 6

New character get! Hello, good to meet you. What's gonna be your story?

Circles and fixated on Natsume... But that "I won't lose," line... Another exorcist? Maybe someone with a connection to Reiko? Or maybe jealous of the attention Natsume gets from... could be Sasada or Natori.

But the circles have eyes in them... Jealous of Natsume's ability to see, maybe? But then again, there was that reaction to having said his name... Hmm... So many possibilities! I'm so excited!

But the most important question:

What's

your

name?!

Please, I need to know! 😭

Finally watched the new natsume movie so here’s an Assortment of funny screenshots under the cut

spoilers obviously

natsume owning himself

iconic moment

and now suspicious visitor time :3c

:)

for real tho the animation really captures misuzu’s Energy, the transformation scenes are cool as hell

tanuma’s face here is killing me

misuzu is very tall and obligatory joke abt resident evil vampire lady

‘easy to possess’ is never Not funny tho they are def exaggerating ‘strong’ spiritual powers lmao

anyway the movie was good, I enjoyed it. the animation was nice, and I esp loved the way they animated tanuma submerged in the water when he’s possessed, it’s a super cool visual metaphor

also the ending theme IS a banger

[mandareeboo]

OOOOOOO THE NEW FRUITS BASKET IS SO GOOD!!!!! 100% RECOMMEND IT!!!!!! IT HAS THE SAME "broken family and traumatized people transformed by one person's kindness and love" VIBES AS STEVEN UNIVERSE, WHICH I'VE LITERALLY NEVER FOUND ANYWHERE ELSE

If I may make a suggestion in turn, you might like Natsume Yuujinchou! It’s a slice-of-life supernatural anime about a boy who can see yokai, but it has a heavy focus on found family and friends, and it’s heavily implied that the MC is an abuse/neglect survivor. He slowly learns to trust people and love them and is very, very kind. =)

not to make everything gay but natsume and tanuma are BOYFRIENDS

[shysheeperz]

Just watched the natsume ova with the tree youkai

[beanmaster-pika]

I identify strongly with the last panel.

[monstrsball]

thank u translators for notes like these bc it rlly helps things click in my mind

[captainkirkk]

I'm rewatching Natsume Yuujinchou season 1 in anticipation of season 7 coming out, and I'd forgotten what early series Natsume was like!! I'd forgotten how he initially disliked and distrusted the youkai (while still doing his best to help them!). Kind of like how he distrusted the humans around him, after years and years of experiences showing him that neither worlds (human or youkai) would accept him :((
