#reiji stan

some of my mutuals whenever I make Reiji moodboards:

[graceraindrops-blog]

I feel like people underestimate or don’t comprehend very well how fucked up reiji is.

Or well

How his trauma fucked him up BADLY.

Quick question, have you guys noticed that in his own route he doesn’t bother shu that much but in shu’s route he’s like the major antagonist (even more than yuma, dare I say)?

It’s because he can’t stand the thought of shu living a happy life.

That’s why he has no problem killing yui in shu’s bad ending or lying to Yuma, or even setting his village on fire when he was a kid.

He genuinely think he hated shu being happy more than he hated shu himself.

Of course things have changed and they get “along” now, reiji apologizing both to shu and Yuma. But there’s a reason on why he’s not liked very much by the Japanese fans despite this.

Im well aware that he’s not the only mentally insane character in the whole franchise but it still surprises me that there’s people out there who genuinely think he’s mentally sane.

He’s not, and that’s fine, because no damn character in this franchise is lol

Ayato: Idol AU Headcanons

// Since you guys enjoyed my DL K-pop AU posts, I decided to write some HCs about Ayato, because he was the most talked about. In this AU, the Sakamakis aren’t actual brothers, nor are they vampires; the group’s concept is just the one of a vampire family. Some details here are based on true things about Ayato but have been slightly tweaked to better fit the idol AU. Hope you enjoy! ❤️

He was once a basketball player and even served as the captain of his team. His dedication to the sport often led him to compete in numerous tournaments, causing him to skip many classes.

Ayato was scouted for his visuals. The CEO of REJET LABELS noticed his youthful yet refined features while Ayato was casually walking home from high school.

A former classmate confirmed Ayato’s popularity at school. She also mentioned that people would randomly take pictures of him on the street, and a bunch of his photos are used on Pinterest for inspiration.

Even before starting his trainee period, Ayato was already quite good in both slow and freestyle dancing. After beginning his training, he discovered his rapping abilities.

As a trainee, the first person Ayato befriended was Laito, who remained his closest companion even after debuting. The two are often spotted hanging out together.

Ayato hates doing aegyo. However, during a special episode of the variety show MUKBROS, Kou dared him to sing and dance to a cute song. The performance went extremely viral, skyrocketing his popularity. Despite this success, Ayato has admitted that the experience still gives him PTSD.

Ayato is in high demand for brand deals and appears to be everywhere. Rumor has it he’s poised to become the next Chanel ambassador. Unfortunately, this has led some solo fans of other members to accuse him of favoritism, casting him in a negative light.

He is the first member of the SAKAMAKIS to appear in Vogue, where he was officially recognized as the "IT boy."

He was ranked 1st in top 100 most beautiful faces (male version); one of the reasons why he gained the “Visual God” title within the idol community.

His best known controversy involves plastic surgery. Netizens noticed changes in Ayato’s nose and jaw when comparing his pre-debut photos and videos to his current appearance. A bunch of Dialovers took his side, attributing the changes to puberty, yet others strongly disagreed, spreading hate by making posts about him looking “botched.”

Last year, he partnered with soloist Cardia as a MC. This experience had a mixed impact on Ayato’s image. While some criticized him for occasionally forgetting his lines or laughing and posing in front of the camera while Cardia consistently gave her all, others came to his defense. Many fans and non-fans argued that the criticism was too harsh, pointing out that Ayato was never intended to be the spokesperson of his group, but Reiji. They also emphasized that it was unfair to compare someone with no prior experience to someone used to give speeches.

When asked who he considers the best-looking person he knows, he confidently answered, while giggling, "myself." Shu then posed the same question but added a rule: he couldn’t choose himself again. In response, Ayato admitted that Cardia is a close second.

Despite this, the biggest dating rumor surrounding Ayato involved a possible relationship with the daughter of one of the staff members. Diapatch spotted Ayato with a blonde girl at a private event, and sasaengs later reported seeing them holding hands late at night. Whether they are actually dating remains unclear, but the rumors enraged many of Ayato’s solo stans. Some were so upset that they filmed themselves destroying his PCs and degrading the girl online.

The hate train quickly faded, especially after Ayato's successful solo debut. His fancams went viral, with his styling making him truly resemble a Vampire Prince. This reminded netizens of his iconic performance on MUKBROS, leaving them stunned by his duality. On top of that, his noticeable improvement silenced critics who had dismissed him as "just a visual."

When asked which idol he’d like to get to know better, he mentioned soloist KINO from the same company. A few months later, KINO invited him to his limited-edition web show, where they had the chance to interact, play games and even filmed a TikTok together afterward.

It’s rumored that not only REJET LABELS, but also other companies pressure idols into plastic surgery to resemble Ayato. This theory gained credibility when Zen from Un: Birthday Song looked different in middle school but began resembling Ayato after becoming a trainee, securing his debut spot in a reality competition.

People who have seen Ayato describe him as having an arrogant and bold presence on stage, perfectly fitting his vampire idol persona. However, off-stage, he’s known to be kind to his fans and happy to engage in casual conversations. Recently, a Dialover shared their experience meeting Ayato, saying, “In MVs and concerts he appears untouchable, but in real life, you realize he’s just a normal handsome boy.”

He is frequently described as the ideal type in street interviews, admired for his stunning looks, hardworking nature, and confident personality. Moreover, many trainees have cited him as their role model.

[callmeklair]

this has been on my mind for a while but still didn't say it because I didn't want people to come after me and cancel me. just know I like ayato, but I don't like the overrated hype on him by people. I'm not hating on Ayato stans, because I was one myself but this overrated hype got me out of it after discovering more knowledge on other characters.

the way some people hype the Ayato "overrate" is too much. like I get it Rejet gave a lot of signs of painting Ayato as the main lead, but it was prolly to have some easier ideas on merch and fanservice contents (like youngblood). yes there might me Rejet's favoritism too here, especially in anime, like all the boys barely have any interaction with Yui except when it came to suck her blood, but that wasn't the case with Ayato. I feel like if Rejet had shown favoritism towards Subaru or actually tried to highlight Shu or Reiji or even Laito's trauma like they did with Ayato, then the main love interest would have pointed towards them.

people saying that Ayato "truly" deserves to be the ML because he had it "worse" are we starting to compare everyones' trauma now??? I'm sorry but trauma can never be compared because everyone has their own experience, sufferings and hardships going through it.

alright if you wanna compare "worse" then, what Ayato had worse? Cordelia abusing him to study 24/7 to become number one and not letting him play + venting her anger out on him? then what about Shu??? as the first born I'm pretty sure it was way worse for him especially how strict and cold Beatrix was. and the only solace, his friend edgar aka Yuma, was also snatched by him. If you guys would have read Shu's LE vampire end starting monologue, then you guys would have known how Shu was talking about his trauma and how he dealt with it using music, pushing people away, etc. + plus it's side effect on him.

"Ayato forgave Cordelia in DF in his route even after what she did to him" okay? so did Yuma. He forgave Reiji for what happened in the past. Laito also forgave Cordelia in his DF route after discovering Karlheinz's journal. Carla was ready to help vampires, the species he hates the most, just on Yui's saying.

Yes Ayato had development, but I feel like Reiji, Ruki, Kou, Shu and Laito had the best one and more better development than him. Like through each and every game you can see them coming over trauma through Yui's help and becoming a better person. While in Ayato's case I just felt like they dumped the "main hero" plot on him by reviving Cordelia. yeah DF was the only route I saw his development while in other games, I didn't see much unlike what I witnessed with other characters.

Subaru was the green flag from the start and if Rejet would have given him the screen time instead of Ayato, he would have become the Main Interest.

Your opinion on the Sakamaki brothers??

they all need to go see a therapist ASAP

That’s a good question cuz I hate all of them, as a Yui Stan it feels illegal for me to love them lol /Jk but I’ll have to say that they’re so funny when they act like actual siblings and some times they can be nice to her plus the reason I first got to watch the Anime is because I thought they looked hot 👹👹, but I’ll rank them from favorite to least favorite.

Ayato -

1. I know it’s pretty basic but I just can’t betray my 13 year old self cuz when I first saw him I instantly got a crush on him and he’ll always have a special place in my heart lol, Every time he speaks it instantly makes me crack up laughing, He’s such a narcissist I live for it, And yet sometimes he just annoys me Like bro stop making fun of Yui’s chest like he got bigger than hers 😟😟😟

Subaru -

2. Another favorite of mine is Subaru and it’s just because he’s actually so nice despite him having major anger issues, he’s game routes are my favorite out of everyone, I swear if he wasn’t a vampire he would be even nicer to Yui, And yes of course there were times that he was so cruel to her and it’s no excuse, but cut him some slack he got mommy and daddy issues 😾

Shu / Reiji -

3. It’s a tie between Shu and Reiji, I’m sorry I just can’t choose in my opinion they’re the prettiest along side Ayato, I’m just rlly into smart characters with mommy issues ( here referring to Reiji 👹 ) Also let’s talk about how much Shu describes my whole personality lol I also sleep and listen to music the whole time but I’m not cold like him and he’s actually really funny, their interaction together is really interesting / funny, I always love when they interact.

Laito -

4. I don’t have any major opinion about him, I’m not really into pervert characters but he is hilarious, I know he has some severe trauma ( well like the rest of them ) yet again there’s no excuse to anything that they did to Yui. If I’m being honest my first reaction to him was “ who is this Chuuya looking dude 💀💀 “

Kanato -

5. Now let me be honest and don’t come after me for this cuz I know a lot of people like Kanato but I hate him sm 💀, He is so annoying and my anger issues could never handle him, that one coffee scene with Yui in the Anime still pisses me off to this day, I swear if I was Yui I would start slapping the shit out of him, he acts like he either bullies or gets bullied by kids on Roblox. But I do like his aesthetic and his whole creepy vibe overall and maybe if he was taller I would’ve liked him more ^^ // Jk

Kino -

6. Can’t say much about him I just haven’t finished his route in LE yet but from what I’ve learned till now he’s an IPad kid and really into guava juice…

!!And just for the record if I said something that pissed you off I’m sorry but this is just an opinion.!!

[diacripticcomplex]

My absolute favorite DL characters in no particular order:

🌸 YUI KOMORI 🌸

Never understood the hate towards Yui. Again the anime is a promo for the game and it did not do her character justice at all. The prequel and sequels for some of the mangas did her character justice. She’s a very kind and compassionate person, she’s HUMAN and grew up in a church, she’s a soft girl who doesn’t like violence so y’all can only imagine what this girl has to go thru meeting a bunch of bloody thirsty horny vampire boys, who have severe parental issues and a bunch of other abusive behavioral problems, but she is very patient with each and every brother in all the routes and I love that about her, she’d be a really good therapist too lmao. She’s an Angel, must be protected at all times. I won’t tolerate any Yui hate on this blog.

❤️‍🔥 AYATO SAKAMAKI ❤️‍🔥

Poster boy for the entire franchise. A lot of people find him to be annoying, he is annoying and we love his Aries self for that. While Ayato is a menace to society he’s got a good side to him as well and for the most part knows right from wrong, more than some of the fandom gives him credit for. I also really like his character design, he kinda looks like a mean little bat. They give him a lot of cute and playful moments with Yui and I think that’s beautiful especially in a dark themed game series, they have serious moments but also a lot of light hearted moments and I think that’s important to lighten up the mood sometimes.

👨‍🌾 YUMA MUKAMI👨‍🌾

First off, I absolutely love his character design, the messy long hair and he’s a giant too plus they gave him realistic human hair and eyes to show that he used to be human, maybe I’m thinking too deep on it idk. I absolutely love the identity crisis he had due to his amnesia and the connection with Shu, it brought that twin flame connection back, I love those best friend tropes a lot, his voice actor also is Mako from Free! So I have no choice but to Stan Yuma. Yuma also has a lot more self awareness then the rest of his adoptive brothers and thinks ahead due to his past experiences, he knows that he’s a vampire now but still has a garden for food and has sugar cubes with him at all times, he uses his past experiences and acknowledges that it happened then moves forward he doesn’t dwell on it too much.

🔪AZUSA MUKAMI🔪

He’s a lil creepy, and socially awkward at times but he’s just so relatable sometimes. He’s very soft spoken and he a lil wild with his pain tolerance and some of the out of pocket shit that he says, but I think he’s such a sweetheart, protect him at all costs as well, even his brothers know to protect him at all costs.

🎻 SHU SAKAMAKI 🎻

Shu will forever be my favorite DL boy, he doesn’t like doing anything but can do everything and do it perfectly too. He has severe ptsd, depression, and detachment issues. No you can’t fix him even Yui realizes this and just accepts him for who he is because that’s the only way it’ll work. He’s also hilarious without even trying to be, he says some mean shit at times but it’s so unhinged like damn Shu you don’t have the energy to eat, shower, wipe your ass but you got the energy to completely disrespect all your siblings with a few words. Also his beef with Reiji is somewhat familiar grounds especially if you have a sibling that is constantly irritating your soul. I always felt like I could relate to Shu the most due to him having a hard time getting close to people after losing his best friend, he can’t just get over it either, I don’t like when people would say “oh it happened a long time ago” yes it did but everyone heals at their own pace and it’s important to acknowledge that as well.

Sayaka (OC) x Reiji Sakamaki (DL)

This is my half of an art trade with @sayakateacup of her OC and Reiji (Diabolik Lovers). As a Reiji Stan myself I hope I did your ship and Mr. Glasses Guy justice 🩵🩵 I tried my best but my art style is as consistent as … not very consistent at all lolz 😂

This artwork is for @sayakateacup and is not permitted to be used or uploaded by anyone besides her and those she gives permission to.

Thank you 🌻

Sayaka (c) @sayakateacup Reiji, Diabolik Lovers (c) Rejet Base (c) @/888ggg_cm A base was used for this drawing at the request of the other artist who provided me with this pose as what she wanted.

I hate seeing slander of my girl Yui as being a “pushover” and “weak” cause while she’s like that in the beginning and in the anime, in the game she becomes absolutely unhinged.

UNHINGED. 

There’s an end where she straight up kills her adopted father while smiling. I’m using this CG i forget if this was the one where she kills her dad or is killing someone else

There’s an end where she makes Reiji her bitch like holy shit 

Like she is fucking unhinged and i stan her

Diabolik Lovers missing audios

I was about to listen a drama cd from the series 24 hours but I had a really bad surprise finding out that all of them were missing, and it seemed to be like this for a long time. Got no choice but to at least try to search for it in the depths of internet, and luckly, I could find 4 of them. I uploaded them in my soundcloud account as fast as I could, but I still have this feeling that no one can find it or that no one even remember of them, that's why I'm posting here.

If you're a Shu, Reiji, Ayato or Kanato stan, today is your lucky day, but if any of you have Laito's or Subaru's audio and would like to share it with the fandom, them, you would be the one who gives me lucky day as a Subaru stan, and of course, to other people who like him or Laito too. Also, can't promisse anything but, if you know about other missing audios, dm me or write a comment here so I'll try to find it.

Hi Could I please ask for nsfw headcanons for Jo Sawashiro and reiji Ishioda with a usually shy s/o who ask to be dominant for once?

not sure if you write for them, sorry if not

Hello! 💕 Yesss I’m okay to write for them, although I did have to google Reiji as the name was not ringing a bell. As soon as the mullet popped up tho it all came flooding back to me! We stan a good mullet ✨

This was a fun one to do, so thank you for the ask - enjoy!

Jo Sawashiro:

First things first, you are in charge only because he is allowing it to happen. He’d still see himself as the dominant one, he’s just willing to let you have your own way this time.

It would almost amuse him at first, the idea of his partner thinking they can dominate him. He’d probably challenge you, like ‘you think you can handle this?’

He would be absolutely gobsmacked if you answered him by just shoving him roughly onto the bed. Straight to business.

Please do not degrade him or say mean things to him, the poor man’s got it pretty rough already.

Teasing is allowed, although if you do tease him too much he will lose his patience and show you who’s boss, by taking control back. He’d probably go extra hard too as punishment.

Wouldn’t allow you to tie him up, blindfold him, or anything like that. He would likely not enjoy being restrained at all.

He’d find it hot if you rode him and held him down by his neck, although do not choke him properly. He does not like it. He is the one who does the choking, thank you very much.

Would play along with orgasm denial, although he will be glaring at you each time you command him to stop. He would get so frustrated, but once you do allow him to finish, he has to admit, it was worth the wait.

Overall, he would likely only enjoy more of a soft dom vibe. Being submissive and vulnerable isn’t something that comes naturally to him, nor is it something he’s fully comfortable with.

Reiji Ishioda:

Again, you are only in charge because he is allowing it, and he is still the boss. Although, he would be a lot more open to it.

Surprisingly, he could get quite into it. He does prefer to be the dominant one, as he’s naturally very rough and intimidating, but he may be willing to switch from time to time, if you ask nicely, or maybe even beg.

Slap him across the face, he fucking loves it. Although, maybe don’t slap him too often, as this would definitely rile him up, and he would then proceed to naturally take back control. At that point, he would be a complete animal and go all out.

If you tried to dirty talk him or degrade him, he would probably laugh at you and call you cute.

Would not be down for being restrained properly, or gagged, and he would also refuse to beg. However, he would be okay with having his wrists tied to the bed, and being blindfolded, although he does prefer to be able to see you as you fuck him.

He would absolutely keep trying to challenge you and talk back when you talk dirty to him or tease him, it would almost be like a constant battle for dominance. The best way to shut him up is to just sit on his face and get him to put his mouth to better use.

If you try orgasm denial with him, he will probably ignore you and finish anyways because he is a brat and does what he wants.

He might let you top from time to time, but again, he wouldn’t be into his partner being an extreme dom, and generally does prefer being the dominant one himself.

when artists draw reiji like 200% more unhinged and 1000000% more bloodthirsty >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
