#nine if you include Touken Ranbu actually

[dazzlingdisaster]

Yooooo guess which dumbass drank the itchy pukey pear juice and then turned around and fucking sprained their middle toe?

Some people say that I need constant supervision and a bubble wrap blanket or one of those inflatable hamster balls and it's days like the past few where daaaamn, do I agree...

But I want a constant supply of lollipops and Monster Pipeline Punch and Pacific Punch sent to my hamster ball bubble force field.

Also I started thinking about all the different anime/manga I've seen with all the different historical characters from the Bakumatsu and what would happen if they all met and then I scared myself and I had to back away from that thought quickly. Bonus points for adding the kids from the Moeyo Ken anime because of the extra chaos. Extra bonus points for their respective Touken Danshi. And now you see why it's scary.

ALSO omgomgomgomg BSD S4 is- DAMN I missed these guys! And tbh I'm so happy that I was wrong thinking the opener episodes light novel adaptation was going to be Stormbringer, and I say that as someone who REALLY wanted it to be that.

Author Interview ✍️

Haven’t done something like this ever here officially, so this is interesting! Thank you @assomoir for tagging me~

Name: Cee

Fandoms: oof that’s a tough question because i have a lot but my most recent ones are Ikemen Vampire, Touken Ranbu, and Mystic Messenger. i do have a few other ikemen series (sengoku/revolution/live) WIPS i haven’t touched... and i haven’t watched anime or read manga in a while...  so yeah those for now.

Where You Post: here on my tumblr and on my ao3! I’ve only cross-posted some of the most recent ones though, so the bulk of my work is really in here. 

Most Popular One-Shot: surprisingly, at the moment it’s one fear.jpg (Ikemen Vampire) which was supposed to be the dumbest fic I have written ever. i swear i don’t understand how that blew up...

on ao3 it’s unfaithful (Mystic Messenger) which i’m pretty proud of.

Most Popular Multi-Chapter Story: i... have only ever written two multi-chapter stories and both of them are unfinished, and the better one of the two had like  70 or so follows and near a 100 reviews on FF.net. yes it’s that old. no i’m not coming back to it i think. no i’m not linking it, i wrote it when i was 12!

Favorite Story You Wrote: hmm that’s a tough one... usually when i finish a fic i just post them and “let them go”, but if i had to choose one, i’d pick a bunch from each fandom maybe? like with these hands you hold (Touken Ranbu), unfaithful (Mystic Messenger) as I said, then, now, always (Haikyuu). and that [spoilers redacted] fic I’m still revising for Ikemen Vampire.

i gotta say though, i have a soft spot for literally everything I have written for the crackship that is shishiyuka (Hirunaka no Ryuusei) because it’s my child, it’s my crackship, it is my baby. 

Story You Were Nervous to Post: i’m generally very nervous about posting fics and will make my friends read them over at least twice and triple check beforehand, but i’d say i was most nervous about unfaithful (Mystic Messenger). yeah, i liked it very much but at the same time i was so so so insecure about it. it was my first actual smut fic out in the world AND it was mild dubcon AND it had cheating in it and it basically had all the red flags possible and i was very worried about tackling it in fiction and how people would react. 

runner up is he will own me and i’ll embrace defeat (Ikemen Vampire) which was a completely different trainwreck of worry because, same, i didn’t know how it would be received. it felt very... intimate, in a different way that the regular smut fic is, and it felt very raw to get it out there.

How You Choose Your Titles: from songs, from poetry, “that one word that is basically the entire story”, or a meaningful clause or sentence from the story. if i think too hard about a title it begins to sound weird so i try to limit my decision making time as much as possible, keep it simple.

Complete: if my contents page didn’t miss any i have 113 finished works so far, not including stuff I wrote for @polyhaikyuu back in the days and also stuff I wrote pre-tumblr (back in FF.net). yes i have no life other than writing.

Incomplete: 

jk if you mean ongoing fics i have none because i only have the attention span for one-shots, but if you mean WIPS then i have, like, a bazillion. 

Do You Outline? i do, but not intensely? mostly I let the fic build itself in my head first, and then when it’s sort of becoming clear, I put it down into bullet points. i outline but only when there’s enough to outline, if that makes sense

Coming Soon/Not Yet Started: ooh i have a bunch on my folder right now but a sneak peek of the ones I want to write the most

- a sandwich smut fic with theo/mc/arthur

- a little thing about how arthur likes his coffee

- a modern AU theo/MC fic that’ll probably turn out to be an original novel with how expansive the entire thing is already, but we’ll see.

- my child, a series of fics (9) for theo’s route release in english, exploring his character, his interactions with MC and the other residents of the mansion, and mostly just me gushing about him

and yes, a thing in february to be done with a bunch of writer friends ;) i honestly don’t know how that’ll sail for me but i’m really excited to be doing it! 

Do You Accept Prompts? i actually do! i can’t promise to get to all of them immediately as i am a full-time student outside of this, but i do take them to consideration and i sometimes put themes together to make a fic. honestly the easiest way to get content out of me is to get me to talk about a character... i’ll probably just spam you with headcanons. 

Upcoming Story You Are Most Excited to Write: one of the nine fics for theo’s route release is really sweet and i want to start on it already but alas. and of course the february thing, which i’m sure you’ll hear about pretty soon! wait for announcements!!

tagging: @attoliattolis​, my shishiyuka co-parent! also omg i need more writer friends........

[Interview Translation & Photos] Kuroba Mario x Sakiyama Tsubasa "One’s current location"

I think I have this in my draft a couple of weeks ago already orz, but I really decided I wanted to translate this the moment it was published. This interview was posted on HOMINIS, August 7. You can check the original source HERE. 

Also, a big thank you to my co-founder of the Tsubasa Trash Community @pamsurowka​ for helping me in some parts, especially that part lol. Please, don’t repost this.

You can find the translation and more photos under the cut~

"Oretabi" (TV Kanagawa) is a documentary series in which a pair of young actors travel around the world. At the beginning of "Season 1" in January 2015, Murai Ryota and Sato Takashi went to Broadway, New York. Matsuda Ryo and Hatakeyama Ryo went to Taiwan and after that, many actors visited Hong Kong, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, etc., and showed us the other side of places we cannot see on stages or television.

And in January 2019, it was decided the latest broadcast of "Oretabi Season 5". Kuroba Mario and Sakiyama Tsubasa, who have a close relationship and co-starred in the musical "Touken Ranbu", went to Seoul, South Korea, where they experienced contents such as Taekwondo and Korean beauty.

Kuroba Mario and Sakiyama Tsubasa have already appeared in "Oretabi Season 4" in 2018, where they enjoyed a trip around the Hawaiian attractions. Before this program is broadcasted, we heard Kuroba and Sakiyama's memories from their trip and the feelings of “staying in their current location".

Please tell us about the most impressive places from your trip to Hawaii in "Oretabi Season 4".

Sakiyama: For me it was the first time visiting Hawaii, but I had that image of Hawaii = Diamond Head. I really wanted to climb that place before going. When you are actually climbing it, the sight from there is beautiful... how can you say beyond the word "beautiful"? I was wrapped by the sense of liberation. It was such a place that made me feel small.

Kuroba: For me it was the first day when we went to the prestigious Iruka Institute. I don’t go to the sea in Japan, but if I do, I don’t go diving (under water), so swimming there was a refreshing feeling. It makes me want to go to the sea again because I can't forget I actually swam with fishes and turtles. I thought "I'm alive!" *laughs*

While watching the program, it felt as if Kuroba-san was the older brother.

Kuroba & Sakiyama: *laughs*

Kuroba: Because I was in front of the camera.

Sakiyama: Kuroba-kun was the facilitator for the segments, so I was allowed to move freely *laughs* And because I'm the youngest child, surely, I might have the character of the youngest child, but Kuroba-kun seemed to not be against it, I wonder?

Kuroba: Or rather being spoiled, you were relaxed, weren't you? Depending on the situation, there may be times we reverse the situation according to our ages in which Sakiyama-kun will give you a feeling of being the older brother *laughs*

Kuroba-san was a runner-up for the 23rd JUNON SUPERBOY CONTEST and Sakiyama-san was a reader model since his school days. I think there are many opportunities to perform in movies and dramas. On the other hand, how do you feel being in a situation where you are in the successful 2.5-dimensional world, including the musical "Touken Ranbu"?

Sakiyama: Well, I always had the goal to be in this industry for a long time and I've come so far thinking about doing a lot of things. You can simply watch dramas and movies, but in the 2.5 dimensional world, you can hold events, meet and talk to fans directly. That's a really nice thing and also receiving fan letters and blog comments give me energy. The distance of the 2.5 dimensional world is close. I had no idea until I experienced it. It's a world I never imagined it, so it's a big thing for me and I want to continue doing it from now on.

Kuroba: When I made my debut, the first thing I imagined at that time was appearing in “Getsuku” (also known as “Monday Nine”) (1)  at the age of 25 years old, my current age. It was an idea when I was still an amateur, but of course, this isn’t a sweet world. But I think that the current environment is blessed. I think there are a lot of actors of the same age as me who work on the stage of 2.5 dimensional world. It might be a big difference not being seen in dramas or movies. Instead, new children are coming out, both in a good and bad sense. We work really aimlessly, but since we are already making a living in this world, it's good if we can jab a lot of things and consider it as a weapon if we happen to come across it.

Finally, please give a message to the readers of "Hominis".

Sakiyama: In "Oretabi Season 4" we are going to enjoy and introduce you to the most advanced places. It was my first time in Hawaii, but I want you to go there because I think you will want to go as well after watching the program.

Kuroba: And after playing, I also want you to (take a journey) to a sacred place. We left a message in the places we visited, so we hope that you will visit the prestigious Iruka Institute and the Diamond Head as well as us to feel the atmosphere of Hawaii together!

(1)  Monday Nine or Getsuku is the term given to the TV schedule period of Monday night 21:00 (JST). It is believed that Japanese dramas aired in this timeslot are most anticipated and watched, and are usually of the romance genre.

I really don’t know who to tag, but this is fun so definitely do it if you’re interested!

[khattikeri]

ooh interesting lists! i know i asked you to do just good and bad categories but now i'm curious. are there any that you just found meh-- like neither good or bad??? or that you felt didn't actually fit good or bad but you picked one anyways?

aaa ur killing me with this. getting to know me with anime asks i see. but i’m glad you asked because it was bugging me having to pick good or bad for anime that i was ambiguous about LOL

under the cut again!

so for the good category a vast majority were anime that I actually liked. There are some that I didn’t care for much but were still objectively good, so I put those there.

I was on the fence about some of them, including Angel Beats and Zankyou no Terror. They weren’t super good, but were still entertaining to watch. They didn’t really suck or anything.

Boueibu, Dance With Devils, and Hamatora are anime that I personally enjoyed and found entertaining though I know that they’re not actually that great and are definitely not anime that I’d ever recommend to anyone.

K and Psycho-Pass are anime that had great first seasons... but then the following season(s) are trash. I mean like actual garbage. It really muddles up whether the overall show is good or bad in your opinion, but the first seasons’ qualities won me over and I placed these two in the ‘good’ category.

As for the bad ones: all of them i either 1) did not enjoy or find entertaining, 2) found hella mediocre/aspects of it made it meh, 3) made me uncomfortable because of certain elements, 4) are genuinely that bad, or 5) have REALLY annoying fandoms

instead of explaining my reasoning for each one i’ll just like. repost the list with the numbers beside it to explain because i’m tired it’ll explain it more easily
