Patalliro! is fascinating to me because of stuff like this. It's unapologetically gay - even within its anime which aired during primetime hours in 1982 - in a way that many later BL manga would never be, like the ones from the early 2000s which would never dare to call their characters actual homosexuals. Patalliro has actually aged quite well in this regard, there's something comforting about how campy it is.
#i still dont really understand how they got away with this kind of thing honestly#female VAs i get that - but first m/m kiss in an anime in episode THREE?????#theres also the maraich/thomas episode where they are *Both* voiced by women....advanced yuri#patalliro#i love how bancorans gender expression is pretty much explicitly to attract only bishounen#you blushed - so you must not be a girl#etc#i also love how joyful it all is#theres never anything sad or tragic about being gay - only that bancoran is forced to kill the bishounen spies/assassins/etc#when bancoran finds out that gay sex feels good after demian; in the manga he is elated. its basically a positive thing#he awakens to his true power...lol#also notable is that while bishounen youth is glorified maraich is 18#this means it portrays being gay as an adult as normal; not a phase relegated to nostalgic adolescent periods of time#according to the NYT japan's psychiatric body called homosexuality a mental illness until 1995#im NOT going to say patalliro changed that or anything lmao but its just significant to me that banmara get to live their lives happily#even raise children together in the manga....???#especially contrasting that with kaze to ki no uta and other manga of the time (no shade intended)#yaoi#<- for tagging purposes#obviously it also got away with a lot by being a gag manga. but still!#months later edit: want to say im not intending to moralize BL manga from the 2000s either. like gen. no hate on them.#as a gay person i just appreciate when characters who act gay are considered gay textually#and its kind of disheartening how gay-as-identity was treated as something incredulous in those manga a lot of the time#even the mere suggestion of attraction to men as a whole and not just the other male lead...yknow#this post is meant to praise patalliro for being unique in its approach to gay content compared to other titles#ive enjoyed plenty of 2000s yaoi titles despite their shortcomings lol#joseiposting#shoujo

AU: Where Sukuna Wins
Part 1
Part 2 here
Imagine an alternate universe in which Sukuna triumphs, dominates over Japan, and endures a lonely existence for many centuries, while allowing some humans to live.
They hold a grudge against him, of course, and want to kill him. They train at Jujutsu High and have some great fighters that occasionally provide Sukuna with some entertainment.
They are so desperate for salvation, they can only find solace in prophecies about a figure with powerful blue eyes that will defeat the king of curses and rescue Japan.
And do you know what Sukuna does in response to that? One might expect him to go full Pharoah mode and kill newborns, but NO!!
HE DOES THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE !!
Whenever he ravages a village and devours the women and children, he ALWAYS spares the blue-eyed infants.
All the curses know better than to kill an infant with blue eyes. The last time a curse did that, Sukuna made sure to make an example of it.
Killing a member of the Gojo clan is also off limits, as well as anything that could delay the reincarnation of this certain person.
These humans are not the only ones waiting for salvation.
Sukuna is also WAITING...for his wretched existence to end at the hands of this person.
The ONLY one worthy of having the honor to do so.
#jjk#jujutsu kaisen#ryomen sukuna#gojo satoru#sukugo#gosuku#my post#reverse pharoah Sukuna let's goooo#Sukuna wants to be defeated by his blue-eyed soulmate sooo bad#I guess that makes Gojo Moses#He's more like Jesus in this situation though#Sukuna is a curse so he needs to die to rest in peace but don't worry him and gojo are gonna die together in this au#he will bring salvation to the people and to Sukuna#in this universe you're only safe if you have blue eyes or if you're a member of the Gojo clan#jesus now that I think about it that gotta change the gene pool overtime#Half the population of Japan will have blue eyes by the time Sukuna gets defeated#people are waiting for gojo to come back in every universe 😔#Sukuna holding a baby in one hand and a fork in another ready to feast *baby opens his blue eyes* Sukuna: NEVER MIND#Sukuna: Uraume take him to the gojo clan so he can train for our fated battle#Uraume: Sukuna-sama this is the 400th baby we sent them the Gojo clan can't train all of them#all of this is for nothing btw because when Satoru actually reincarnates Sukuna will KNOW#he will feel the shift in the the universe🥴#hashtag wish i could write#someone please write a fic about this..

Day one billion of begging PokeMas to add N’s sisters to the game and have them interact in the game canon on screen finally so I can get my ass back into the game
#I think I’ve made this post a million times but it’s still true as hell#the fact we never see N and his sisters together in the game canon drives me BONKERS I need SIBLING CONTENT#thank god Anipoke has them interact so I have food but also they’re not in many episodes#and also the anipoke canon is so different. I still love it but it doesn’t hit as hard imo#really interested in the fact anipoke states they have the same power as N though. surprised that’s the only place where that’s the case#really adds layers to their bond and makes me wonder what the true scale of Anipoke Ghetsis’s plan was#screw that earthquake in Japan that completely changed the Plasma storyline I wanted more 😔😔😔#how did my tags become very much an anipoke ramble when I was talking about pokemas and game canon 💀#anyway#pokemon#n harmonia#anthea and concordia#bc rambles

i think it's about time that we acknowledge that, no, that character would Not change their name in a groupchat! especially not to that. and, no, that character would not change everyone else's names! especially not to that.
#my drafts are back up to almost 800 sooooo have this post i made a couple weeks ago!!!#it irks me SO MUCH#most people just use their names or nicknames😭#i'm sorry but i.ida would not make his name 'sonic' and j.irou/m.omo would not include 'lesbian' in their names even if they are#c.huuya would not make his name about his height (god we get it the short jokes are so annoying to me personally it just feels like#a way to infantilize him) and d.azai would not make his name about bandages and lord knows k.unikida is NOt changing his name at all#most people don't make their names their sexuality i just. don't understand why almost all chat fics include like. 'lesbian queen' which#like ig if it's someone using it to come out or for pride month that checks but most of the time the characters i see with their sexuality#in their name are characters tHAT WOULD NEVER DO THAT!!! at least use characters who would😭 like j.irou's too shy and m.omo is too reserved#and like sorry not sorry but d.enki and s.ero and m.ina are not going to just instantly change everyone's chat names - most people don't ge#into a chat and go 'imma change everyone's names' and like i could deal with it if they gave them names that made sense#bUT THEY DON'T!!! also so many anime chatfic writers give them american type names like reference american artists#it's just like. they prolly don't listen to as much american music as you think they do. japan has musicians too. like. they're not america#sorry i genuinely love the concept of chatfics and think they're a FANTASTIC way to analyze character and i even did a whole lesson on#characterization in texting last semester! it was really fun too like the kids enjoyed it! but like. most characters won't text the way you#do. and people just. always make them type the way they do. or use actual convos from griupchats but don't make it fit the characters#just. mmmmmmmmm.#idk why but gc fic names bother me So Much lol#AM DONE NOW SORRY GUYS#corey talks:)

Well this year I am very close to cutting off the two people who might have caused me, outside of my own family, to feel such anger as to deform my spirit but finally it's over. Fault and blame don't matter anymore, only getting away from a cycle of lost time that will never, ever be reclaimed.
#i didnt think he'd pick up but i didn't realize either that id changed my phone number with my new provider#i have to mourn him again but itll be quicker this time#i never have to go back there again never ever ever i never have to go back to those three places that hold such pain ever again#there's an island that was fought over for centuries i suppose before the current RoK let Japan have it but its story is sad and beautiful#there is so much Korean on this island i feel so close i want to be there ...next time

Currently thinking about how some people have never had their lives changed by a studio ghibli film, and it shows.
#studio ghibli#hayao miyazaki#ghibli films#ghibli aesthetic#what do you mean you've never seen howl's moving castle?#i feel like i can only be truly happy on one day in 1980s japan#howl jenkins pendragon changed me as a person

one of these days theyre actually gonna announce something tomodachi life related i swear to god
#they HAVE to know that theres demand for it im constantly seeing people asking for it#also its 10 year anniversary was this year.#well the 10 year anniversary of the japanese release was this year . 10 year anniversary for everywhere else is next year#basically what im saying is it would be the perfect time to Do something with it#ive seen some people say that tomodachi life isnt the type of game you could make a sequel for and to that i say:#tomodachi life ITSELF is a sequel you guys just didnt know because the first game was never released outside japan#so i think they could make a sequel if they wanted to#or at the very least a port with a few changes made

You know, looking at a diet soda can it occurs to me that it might not be so wretched to me if the cans weren't so unpleasant
Like we know that things like color play a role in how our brain perceives things, and I realized looking at the can that they're always this bland but at the same time nasty looking silver and it just... it looks foul and I think that compounds with the fact that I also just plain don't like diet soda
My point here isn't to say anyone else shouldn't like diet soda, just how I never realized how much of an impact the can has on me not liking it... there's just something offputting about it to me
#I don't ever drink soda these days#like I drink so little soda that root beer is basically something I treat like a dessert at this point#and it's funny; cause I drank nothing but soda when I was a teen#it was just kinda like a switch flipped one day; no idea on why#which is a shame; cause I've known people who really really wanted to stop drinking soda and... I wish I could tell them what I did#but... I kinda didn't do anything; I just changed#would love if I could give practical advice#now; you'll never hear me shitting on people for drinking soda; or have me sitting here telling people how awful it is#we all know what soda is; I mean man... you wouldn't have helped me if you lectured me back when I was drinking nothing but soda#in fact you'd probably have held me back from whatever clicked to make me stop cause you would have annoyed me#...but I don't miss it; now it's so damn sweet to me cause I got sometimes years without drinking it#nah... occasional root beer at a specific pizza place or with dessert; that suits me just fine#anyway; what my real point was is take my thoughts on diet soda with that grain of salt that I don't like regular soda either#I'll take regular over diet any day cause I prefer the sweeteners... like... if it's gonna be a once in a blue moon thing#I know which sweetener I'd rather taste; and it's not gonna be that big a deal to me either way cause I have it so rarely#but yeah; when I make this observation know it comes from someone that never drinks soda#so it's not like my input is that important or useful#...and yet... I'm not gonna go look up how to spell it; but you know barques... barks? you know that one root beer has a silver can#and that wasn't as much of a problem though... I think that even though I liked it the can was a hang up for me that spoiled it a little#really I just like all the brands of root beer; they're all different; but all good in their own way#I should go to Japan and preform as a masochist for them; since my understanding is the general consensus there is#that root beer tastes like medicine; let me put on a show as a weird american who drinks the thing they think is bad and enjoys it

#Just read with my own two eyes the take that sskk dating would be illegal in Japan and like.#sorry if this sounds rude but can Twitter please start discourse over it I want to witness it so bad aksvdbksbdjsnsvsksvska#I've been giggling for the last five minutes this. unironically made my day this concept is so so funny I'm ecstatic#Like. I don't even know where to begin I can't stop laughing. But someone thinking that Akutagawa who's like.#a notorious mafioso and serial killer with a reasonably high body count. Would think twice about the legality of dating someone–#two (2) years younger than him???? Like THAT was the issue with dating Atsushi????????I'm hysterical#But even beyond that... I think it kinda speaks of what internet culture become–#that people started thinking dating someone two years younger than you is illegal. wtf.#It is... Guys nobody needs to hear this- except apparently someone does? But dating is never illegal. Having sex with a minor is.#There's like. quite a difference akdbfbskbdjsksbdksbdks#I'm trying so so hard to be polite about this but there's an inner beast inside me that can't help but laugh akdbdjsbsksbsk#I'm sorry there IS some kind of social commentary that could be done here but right now I'm just too busy laughing#And I mean this with no malice seriously!! Best thing I've read all week#Anyways to that person. I love you. Please learn the law. Never change#random rambles

Kamoshidaman's concept art for PQ2 is still so crazy to me. they almost made the predatory guy have a gay as hell final boss form. in 2018. it's like they learned nothing since Kanji.
#persona q2#pq2#kamoshidaman#hate to say it though but the design itself. it slays severely. but the fact that its kamoshida makes it. rlly bad. morally speaking.#now that im seeing the concept it all makes soooo much sense design wise. the bunny form felt rlly random to me when i was playing#but seeing what it was actually supposed to look like. yeah now it all adds up. everything abt this SCREAMS last minute change.#japan's obsession w bunny suits never ceases to amaze and amuse me.#tedpost#tedtalks#btw im not saying kanji IS predatory but its how his shadow was portrayed. ok bye.#sidenote. the bossfights in q are hard as hell. the difficultly spike in this one was CRAZY. but its fun

I thought Cube 2021 was going to be an exact remake of the original, but it has enough differences to make it a separate film.
#I think it just has to do with societal values being very different in Japan#as opposed to the west#with the young vs the old#of course#the traps in the remake are different too#and we see flashbacks to a characters life outside the cube#which never happened in the original#I kind of liked the changes
