just ruthlessly murdered him with zero hesitation goddamn

[discocandles]

i wanna talk about romantic killer and how impactful anzu is. the narrative has a theme with anzu having more impact than she seems to notice.

Before the show even starts, Anzu's been impactful. It could be blamed on the long-time crush, but Junta's a big case of this. Anzu bluntly told him he'd likely be good at baseball, so he tried it and she was right. One observation led him into a lot of his friends, and possibly his future career, but Anzu's oblivious to it. I think she noticed her impact with Saki, but in anzu's mind, there was nothing else to do. Someone hurt her friend and she was going to stand up for her so Saki wouldn't have to keep dealing with that.

Tsukasa is an interesting case in regard to anzu's impact. It's basically camouflaged until Kishi shows up. Anzu saw him blaming himself, after all, that's what most people did the first time. But anzu hits him with the most amazing line about wishing she could've been there to believe him then. and in the moment before he tells Kishi off, we see how much that impacted him.

the impact to Hijiri is the most obvious. Like we hear from Tsuchiya that Anzu's rejection led him to try seeing from a "commoner's point of view". Which helped him not simply rely on his status and wealth, aka influencing his life for the better. So anzu's far more aware of this, but she seems so shocked about it im more sure she doesn't notice her impact.

and then there's Riri. I think it's kinda a 2-way street, as these two changed each other for the better simultaneously. Anzu by calling out how Riri's lack of understanding humans would only hurt them, and Riri calling out how Anzu only caring about her greatest desires was isolating her(specifically from romance but it was hurting her friendships too). anzu's impact on riri shows more in their actions, like staying in human form more and trying to act like a human would. and those attempts build into them caring about anzu beyond just their job, esp in the last couple of episodes. Riri's barely in potato form and breaks the rules 3 different times for anzu, things the riri from episode 1 would've never done, lest they get a pay cut.

In conclusion, anzu is that friend who apropos nothing says the most insightful thing that will stick with you for years, but totally forgot about it right after.

I wasnt the only one who immediately thought and accepted too absurdly fast that Riri had just fucking killed that stalker girl right

[briardoll]

Okay so I know the poll isn’t over yet and I’ll still write about whichever one wins but I love romantic killer so I’m going to write about it here

My headcannons for romantic killer

• Tsukasa brings home little cat trinkets for Anzu when he goes shopping, he put them in her room for her without saying he bought anything.

•Hijiri is a really bad singer but he thinks he’s great because no one has ever told him otherwise for fear of losing their job.

•Makoto has period products that he carries with him for his female friends if they need them, he’s never grossed out by any of it because of all his sisters.

•Hijiri’s crush on Anzu was at first sight. When She got in the car he liked her immediately, that’s a reason why he was so willing to work to win her over.

•Saki gets on average 5-7 love confessions a day, sometimes from guys who have already asked her out!

•Junta is a master at sleeping in loud or uncomfortable situations since his younger siblings come and sleep in his bed when they have nightmares.

*We’re so twin like that, I have a billion younger siblings too, (four) so falling asleep in an uncomfortable position is second nature*

•Saki once had her brother beat up a creepy older guy who was following her around, it was witnessed by others and nobody ever followed or creeped on her again.

•Anzu needs white noise to sleep at night but Tsukasa can’t stand it. It’s always a battle about who will get their way that night.

•Anzu likes the weirdest food combos, like dipping her veggies in barbecue sauce, or adding cinnamon to her soup at dinner, it’s appalling to see her eat it to everyone around her.

•Junta likes pistachio ice cream, and Anzu makes fun of it and says he’s like an old man.

•Riri is constantly having to have their wand sanitized because Anzu keeps throwing it into contaminants for casting annoying spells.

•Makoto wears perfume instead of cologne because it smells better to him

•Makoto had really girly things as a kid because they were hand me downs from his sisters

•Hijiri is a germaphobe. Once Junta sneezed around him and he stayed home from school for a week because he needed to “quarantine” himself.

Okay seriously what is it with the "straight a student popular girl adored by everyone as the most beautiful and most caring and helpful actually resents everyone around her and the pedestal she's been put on and fake smiles her way through the day" always having PURPLE HAIR??

(Also she's comphet lesbian-coded -> "Little Miss Perfect" vibes LMAO)

[american-belgian-waffle]

The fact that we didn't get 20 seasons of the Romantic Killer's cast living their life is the biggest downfall ever

Genshin Impact Romantic Killer AU

Because I can!

I recently started watching Romantic Killer and I was doing my usual look through of the VAs (Watching in Japanese this time) and I noticed a few things.

A lot of the VAs I recognized

Most of them were in hoyoverse games (aka most in genshin and 1 in star rail)

I could make an AU out of this

So I've decided to present my Romantic Killer AU to Tumblr

• Hu Tao as Anzu Hoshino (Same Japanese va)

• Alhaitham as Tsukasa Kazuki (Same Japanese va and I noticed that they have similar mannerisms)

• Luka as Junta Hayami (Same Japanese va and they're both sweet and the spotty type)

• Amber as Saki Takamine (Same Japanese va and I feel like Amber could be a really good friend to Hu Tao)

• Paimon as Riri (I mean... come on. Annoying floating thing? It fits!)

I am only halfway through so I will update this with more characters but this is it for now!

SAKI AND MAKOTO ARE WLW+MLM SOLIDARITY FR FR

Romantic Killer

Today I watched this manga and I loved it. It was really entertaining, funny but also serious at the end. All the cliché are broken with the heroin but at the same time it's so cliché because of Riri's tricks. For now, the end is open so everyone can imagine and hope for the « couple » they love. Anzu is strong, kind, insightful (excepted in love ahah). She is the best friend ever not only to Saki but to anyone who need it. She’s priceless, nobody can hate her ! And she loves the best things in the world : video games, cats and chcoolate.

I loved every character to be honest (not the psycho woman of course).

I quickly understood the reason of Tsukasa's behavior and i loved the duality between his « I don't care » nature and his joy from little things with Anzu and Junta. I was touched  a lot by his story. His vulnerability and fear, because he is a teenager who has suffered the toxicity of his father and of a psychopath was really well shown and it's difficult to make something so serious in a comic manga. I really love him.

The appearance of Junta was really funny and surprising. He's really cute, innocent, shy, fair and kind. He's a great character but, unfortunatly he's on of those we love but not as much as someone more contrasted. Despite of that, I find really funny that he is the one in love with Anzu for a long time and he always arrive at awkward moments.

Riri was really surprising. At first I thought he was going to be the annoying useless little thing (Like Happy in Fairy tail) but he was not. He/She was funny and i really loved him/her as the twins Riri and Rio. I became to get very attached to him/her even before the dating episode. They managed to made him funny, annoying, touching and essential. When he/she was not here, I was searching for him/her.

Hijiri is not as deep as other character but he is cute. He is a full cliché of the rich guy who elvolve. For me, he is not in love with Anzu so it's quite great to see him as an unexpected friend. I love the friendship he built with Anzu. Also he is really grateful with Tsuchiya and that's something I find really cool.

Tsuchiya is a character I love a lot even if he is not really present. Every little moment between him and Anzu make my heart pound. It's an unexpected pretender in my opinion. Maybe a lot of people didn't saw him like this but I did. He seems really kind, helpful, cute and devoted to anyone he like. He is the only adult so maybe, it could be an akward couple with Anzu, but I like to think that he is young adult so it's okay. He is not my favorite but i do really love him and it's an interessting option for Anzu.

I can't remember the childhood/rival friend but he was cute, I was hoping to see more of him.

On antoher side, I really ship a couple Saki x Makoto. Aren't they rellay cute together ? The festival scene with the toxic ex was really something. makoto is a lovely character. He is kind, funny, natural, protective and smart. Saki have the same quality, they belong so well together. Maybe you guess it but, personally I'm team Tsukasa with a real love the little moments with Tsuchiya even if he is a side character. I don't know if I want a season 2… I love the end this way !

And you, which team are you ?

[demonicintegrity]

Me: yknow this dude Saki got with half out of pity actually isn’t the worse. Persistent and maybe too pushy but they’re also teens so I can kinda look pass that. And he’s respectful of not holding her hand or anything to make her uncomfortable, which is actually really respectful of her boundaries and discomfort. He’s probably the most normal about it than the other guys Saki has been subjects to.

Mori: let’s study at my house

Me: don’t you dare I just said I was cool with you. Dont make me eat my words so quickly. Don’t you dare try to force yourself on her.

Mori: coming to a guys house means you’re ready for this

Me: for fucks sake dude!!! Eat shit and die!

Mori: and I’m spreading rumors bc you had the audacity to hit me out of self defense :)

Me: EAT SHIT AND DIE
