i love no. 6 and nezushi

[nighttimeebony]

Every time I rewatch No. 6, I learn something new about the different ways that Nezushi subverts trope expectations, especially expectations established by poorly written same-gender romance stories in anime.

For example, I realized today that despite Nezumi being so closed-off and emotionally distant with Shion (at least in the beginning), Nezumi is actually way touchier than Shion is.

In episode 1, after he tackles Shion, he keeps ahold of Shion's wrist even after he's gotten off of him.

In episode 3, he keeps touching Shion's face.

In ep 4, he puts his arm around Shion while they're leaving Rikiga's place.

And later in the same episode, he puts Shion's hand on his heart.

In ep 6, Nezumi is the one who pulls Shion to dance with him.

Nezumi can barely go five minutes without touching Shion in episode 9.

Nezumi initiates their kiss in the last episode.

And then, of course, there's all the times he grabs Shion's shirt when he's trying to get Shion to listen to him (seriously, it happens like once an episode).

While Shion does endorse physical contact with Nezumi and never shies away from it, he's rarely ever the initiator. There's only a couple of times where Shion is the one initiating physical contact between them, and even those few times are vastly outweighed by the number of times Nezumi is the one to initiate physical touch.

TL;DR: Nezumi's love language is physical touch and I think we should talk about that more.

I swear to god AT LEAST 60% of my ships always end up in me fitting them into a No. 6 (the anime/manga) AU and half the time they normally end up working really well like Jesus Christ Nezushi really molded my ass into this, now I’ve got a thing for light/dark hair pairings AND pairings with either complimentary or contradicting views who can somehow make it work. I watched one shitpost at the age of ten or something and now it all returns to Nezumi and Shion. DazAtsu? Surprisingly yeah. Scarabedo? YEP THAT TOO. If I can fit it in an AU, and it can work in its weird ways, I will do it.

If anybody would like to hear about these aus I ask of you: go nuts in my ask box please ask me questions so I can fuel my delusions /pos

No.6 is the type of series that forever changed the way my brain functioned

Sorely disappointed this kind of intense and hilariously entertaining dynamic is not present at all in the anime. What a waste.
