#sakamoto days: an alternative transitional period

[alienposadismo]

Whelp, fic is on Ao3 now. Here are the link and the official cover.

Biggest thing I have written so far, clocking in at 18,109 words (at time of writing. Currently it's at 48,795) and with the passion to match!

Big shoutout to @bokunocolor for the awesome coloring of the panel of Aoi With Glasses that inspired the whole idea of SAKAMOTO DAYS: An Alternative Transitional Period (or SD:aATP for short) and helped create the cover as a result, with me going for a Fashion Magazine look as I completed the shape and credits and whatnot. But yeah... sure was quite the new experience, having to go through a server full of beta readers for future-proofing and whatnot... still, it was hella fun!

And still is.

And will be.

Yeah, I ain't stopping. This bad boy is gonna be up to date as much as possible. Meaning I will be adapting as many chapters as I can, as best as I can.

Even if there's currently 185 canon manga chapters, with no signs of Suzuki-sensei stopping any time soon, Imma get there if I can. If the Loud House can have a fanfic bigger than the GODDAMN Bible, then I can have a fanfic the size of a Shonen Jump franchise!

So, now that this is done... time to go back to the kitchen. Mother has some PEAK to cook, after all.

Until then though... hope you enjoy/enjoyed the read, both of the fic and of this debut post!

P.S - I mayyyyyyy or may not be getting more covers made for when newer chapters show up... and I mayyyyyyy or may not plan to use them in PDF volumes of 6-7 chapters each like the canon manga... which mayyyyyy or may not be stored in a public Mediafire link or something similar... that all mayyyyyy be a possibility. :3

Me this past week with SakaDays stuff (ESPECIALLY SD:aATP)

would you like a nice glass of

[alienposadismo]

Some may call it narcissism,

I call it pride and accomplishment.

Truly, 20€ unwell spent. Though in hindsight, maybe I should have put in chapters 7-10 as well.

...

...OH SHIT I GOTTA FINISH CH11, BRB

[alienposadismo]

To celebrate the 12 chapters (and 114 hits) reached, here's the cover for Volume 2 of SAKAMOTO DAYS: An Alternative Transitional Period

As usual, shout out to @bokunocolor for being goated with the colouring sauce, cause yeah, while it took a bit to write allat, I did manage to turn his colouring of the mid-air shooting Aoi into a more movie-poster-style cover to contrast the fashion magazine one for the volume before.

Am I getting Volume 2 on the Mediafire? Definitely, with me putting said Mediafire in a comment. Am i getting it printed like I did with the first 6 chapters that Volume 1 contained? Probably, once the salary arrives.

Might even do one of those 3-volumes-in-1 things that big mangas do sometimes. But only for me :3

In the meantime, go read my fic for the feedback, findable in the pinned post I use to track the wordcount. Or give BnC's blog a visit. Any kind of support will be nice for sure.

Whelp, here's the official logo of the fic I have been cooking for 3 chapters now.

Thank god for the lil filter helping the unfortunate souls using this hellsite with light mode (me included).

But yeah, that whole Trans Aoi Sakamoto AU I suggested a long while ago? That's the fic for it, so far adapting the first 3 manga chapters, soon to be on Ao3... once the invitation arrives in my e-mail.

Hope y'all enjoy it when it's out! (Or, if you're among the beta readers, when the chapters are ready.) In the meantime, here's the banner/horizontal version below.

[alienposadismo]

So I trans-ed the official icon and wallpaper of Sakamoto Days. :3

Gee, I wonder what fic these edits are for~

Alright, that should be enough Ibis Paint chicanery for the time being...

Should be.

Hm.

[alienposadismo]

Screw it, new PFP. Needed a bit of an update anyway.

Yeah, decided to renovate this now a bit more active blog a little. And hey, my brain is already on enough brainrot to make 2 chapters of the SakaDays Trans!Aoi AU I posted about a while ago in just 2 days. Might as well embrace it while I wait for the invitation to arrive.

Anyways, back to preparing Chapter 3 of Sakamoto Days: An Alternative Transitional Period for that one Discord server and one certain separate Tumblr colorist I use for beta readers. Once Ao3 lets me into its sacred abode, imma post the chapters there as well. Til then, here's the summary of the fic and setting as a bit of a teaser/appetiser.

Summary:

Taro Sakamoto was the most lethal and powerful hitman in the world of assassins, a boogeyman, a titan... and then he disappeared. She found her self, you see. Shame you can't just leave this world, as this familiar yet different story shows.

See you soon~

Chapter 15 of SD:aATP is out on Ao3!

Yeah, this one took a bit more due to work complications. Still on schedule though! Also hey, Lab arc is officially over now, so that is nice :3 Might be the first week that technically only has one aATP chapter instead of two though. Sorry about that!

Anyways, OOC spoiler time:

[alienposadismo]

Chapter 14 of SD:aATP is done, ready to give the folks that need it much needed serotonin in regards to recent events.

Consider this my contribution of trans-positive content to counter the likes of Fuentes and co on the horizon. Also, Project 2025 does contain a bit about removing Ao3 from America in some way, so I highly recommend you start downloading fics. (Including mine :3)

Here's the Out Of Context spoiler as per usual.

[alienposadismo]

Chapter 12 of SD:aATP is up on Ao3!

Real fun to pick and choose what parts to change as a result of Aoi being trans etc., NGL! If you can't notice them, the new tags are gonna be a nice hint. 😘

Anyways, here's an Out of Context spoiler as I fetch the Volume 2 cover from BokuNoColour's vault. (If you're reading this, BnK, thanks a million for everything as usual!)

Chapter 9 of SD:aATP is complete, right on time too.

Gotta say, genuinely tempted to get a copy this thing printed IRL. Not for the narcissism or anything, just to see how it feels holding my own pseudo-novella in my hands. Could be the eepiness of me just waking up speaking though.

Anyways, here's an out of context spoiler/better look at a certain gorilla. Made by editing a Max Tennyson edit of a certain Todo panel fetched from Reddit.

[alienposadismo]

Whelp, Chapter 7 of SD:aATP is out at around 6k words. Boy, was it a doozy.

In the meantime, have an out of context spoiler:

[alienposadismo]

Chapter 13 of SD:aATP is up on Ao3...

Next one will be ready by the end of this week, due to the whole Election-rigging fiasco/tragedy motivating me through spite. It's the least I can do, what with the potential dark times to come. So I hope my craft helps calm you all somewhat.

Here's the out of context spoiler. Source is a Redditor who really felt like this while posting some really dumb shit. Imma now go back to preparing for work.

[alienposadismo]

Chapter 11 of SD:aATP is finished!

Phew! Yeah, Lab arc ended up WAY bigger than I remember! So yeah, it's gonna take a few chapters. Also hey, new tags alongside Natsuki's debut, wink wink nudge nudge.

Anyways, have an Out Of Context spoiler:

Also, the Quote font thingy made 11 look like II, hence the font change for this one.

[alienposadismo]

Chapter 10 of SD:aATP is out on Ao3!

Right on time too! And damn, 33,100 words already! Anyways, have another out of context spoiler in case you actually bothered to read the whole post.

[alienposadismo]

Chapter 8 of SD:aATP is out, folks.

Have a rough recreation of a certain gorilla made out of a Franky Fanart redraw. Think of it as a teaser of sorts.
