Akane Nishikawa Japanese gravure idol

[sinclarify]

how i think a fandom would mischaracterise all my sillies <3

junichiro okumura: mean yaoi man. he's quite cold and also does not mince his words so they'd definitely turn him into some like. idk mafia boss. mafia yaoi boss

kaori izumi: they'd either make her into the worst person that ever lived because of her personality or a sad sensitive pathetic person who 'needs to be protected' because of how she died

tatsuya fujiwara: they'd turn him into a baby oh my god. my guy is quite reserved and closed off emotionally and Quite Anxious All the Time and they'd uwufy him ..fuck. or turn him into a tsundere or something. ami its not like i like you >_<

minori kamiya: i fear the uwufication of minori kamiya would be inevitable . that or you'd have the two extremes of "MINORI DID NOTHING WRONG!! they're so innocent and soft and cute!!!" despite the fact that they killed a man or "MINORI'S A HORRIBLE REPHRENSIBLE MONSTER WHO DESERVES THE WORST" despite literally everything else about them

quinn levine: she's black so racist weirdos will be racist weirdos. her entire personality would also be watered down to just Being There to Help Literally Every Other Character without having a personality for herself!!!

hideyo hidaka: i shudder to think. he's already completely morally reprehensible but i fear he would be made even WORSE. or people would completely ignore how much of a terrible person he is and all of his malicious inclinations because "he's hot and he did nothing wrong!!!"

kozue kaneko: her entire personality would be watered down to Dumb and Loud . think like how some of the dgr fandom perceives akane owari. like THAT

chiyo inoue: if kozue gets the akane treatment, chiyo's getting the ibuki mioda treatment. aka they'd completely ignore her emotional intelligence and just make her seem like there's nothing in her head but ribbon and sparkles !!!!!

kane cooper: they'd TWINKIFY HIM they'd YAOIFY him he's already blonde and gay and also the antagonist I FEAR THEYD GIVE HIM THE KOKICHI TREATMENT????? FUCK

hana nishikawa: her connection to mihoko will draw in some weirdos that's for sure. they'd take 'mindlessly devoted puppet' and turn it into something freaky. i shudder to think

mihoko uehara: she's a woman and the mastermind so people would either hate her even though her antagonism would be totally lauded if she was a guy OR they'd be absolute freaks with it! i SHUDDER to think

ami takahashi: she'd be totally reduced to some ditzy bimbo pre-chapter 2 and post- chapter 2 she'd just be absolutely hated. she'd get the 'bitch' 'thot' treatment you know... my poor girl . also her character progression is just her Getting Worse and people won't like that!!!!!

akihiro kanda: UGHHHH HE'D BE THE NUMBER ONE VICTIM OF THE UWUFICATION GET HIM OUT GET HIM OUT OH MY GOD

natsu shimada: they'd make his relationship with kane his ENTIRE personality . reduce him to being nothing but a love interest! the twinkifcation would hit him bad ....

Lyrics :

i could never find the right way to tell you have you noticed i've been gone? cause i left behind the home that you made me but i will carry it along

mm it's a long way forward so trust in me i'll give them shelter like you've done for me and i know i'm not alone you'll be watching over us until you're gone

when i'm older i'll be silent beside you I know that words are not enough and they won't need to know our names or our faces but they will carry on for us

Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare, also known as The Great Yokai War, is the middle film of a Yokai trilogy from Daiei Film, the same folks that brought us the Daimijin Trilogy. The first of the Yokai Monsters Trilogy is Yokai Monsters: 100 Monsters (1968) and the third film in the trilogy is Yokai Monsters: Along with Ghosts (1969). Bryan Clark, guest host and a self-proclaimed kaiju and tokusatsu geek, chose Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare as the subject for this episode’s podcast and the Classic Era’s Grue-Crew are delighted with his choice.

Daphne loves Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare and found the Yokai to be charming. She is enchanted with the overall childlike feeling and atmosphere of the film created by the Yokai, the music, and the cinematography. Chad had never heard of Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare and didn’t know what to expect. He finds the same kind of charm he found in H.R. Pufnstuf (1969-1970) as a youth, loving the cool monsters with individual personalities alongside fun with a dangerous edge and a bonkers imagination. Now he vows to watch the entire trilogy. Jeff also loves the weird anthropomorphic creatures and is intrigued by the centuries-old Japanese folklore of the Yokai. Bryan is a sucker for old-fashioned, man-in-suit monsters, and Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare delivers. The Yokai creations are so wild in concept, design, and personality that it’s impossible not to be charmed by them.

Your Classic Era Grue-Crew all intend to watch the complete trilogy of Yokai Monsters movies. If you are also so inclined, Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare is available to stream from various subscription and PPV streaming services, and on Blu-ray physical media in Yokai Monsters Collection (3-Disc Limited Edition) and Yokai Monsters Collection (3-Disc Standard Special Edition) from Arrow Video. The Limited Edition was released October 19, 2021, and the “Standard Special Edition” is to be released February 22, 2022. Both sets include Takashi Miike’s The Great Yokai War (2005) as a fourth movie. The only differences this writer can find between the two offerings are postcards featuring newly commissioned artwork for each film by Jolyon Yates and a foldout ‘yokai guide’ poster illustrated by Jolyon Yates, both included with the Limited Edition.

Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror: The Classic Era records a new episode every two weeks. Up next on their very flexible schedule is one chosen by Daphne: Kwaidan (1964), a classic Japanese ghost story of another kind.

Please let them know how they’re doing! They want to hear from you – the coolest, grooviest fans: leave them a message or leave a comment on the site or email the Decades of Horror: The Classic Era podcast hosts at feedback@gruesomemagazine.com

To each of you from each of us, “Thank you so much for listening!”
