Japanese names

Not exactly sure who this is relevant to but it always gets to me when I read fics for anime and people get the name order wrong. This is all coming from a Japanese person btw.

So unlike English where its “first name” “last name” its the opposite, so your family name comes first. So it tends to be more formal to call people by their family name but that doesn’t mean that thats always the case. Until the end of middle school, basically no one refers to you as your family name unless its during role call or someone's personal preference. When you get to high school, it becomes slightly more normal but most people stick to second name basis.

In a fic I’m reading rn (its a bsd fic) - every time the characters have an angsty moment, they call each other their last name (i’m sure its coz the author thought it was the other way around and got it mixed up) but if using the name Osamu Dazai as an example- Dazai is his personal name- therefore calling him Osamu is less personal, and much more on the formal interaction side.

As for anime such as haikyuu, I still wonder why they have people in the same age category calling each other by their family name but I suppose its plausible. But how the third years talk to each other, for example Suga referring to Daichi as his family name in front of younger members then his second name when its just the three of them (Suga, Daichi and Asahi), which is what our senior vb members are like.

As for people who want to use terms suffixes  end thingys like “chan” (which is pronounced ch-u-n btw) and “Kun” (k-n).....just don’t-. It comes off as kinda cringe especially when used wrong but if u rlly must- here’s how u should use it.

Stereotypically chan is for little girls and kun is for boys. Chan can still be used for girls when they’re older but boys typically dislike being called X-Kun past the age of like 10. Chan can also be used for boys and I’m sure if you’ve watched anime before you’ve heard the term “onii-chan” which means older brother in a cutesy, childish sort of way but isn’t exclusive to your actual older brother. For example you can use it for any male figure a couple years older than you who is close to you, older siblings of friends, and cousins. When attaching chan onto someone's name, the actual name typically gets shortened, like in Haikyuu when Hinata’s middle school friends greet him they call him “Sho-chan” instead of “Shouyo-Chan” another example is my older cousin; his name goes from Akihito to Akii-nii-chan. Same with one-chan, but names tend to get shortened less.

Senpai is also a term that gets used way less than you’d think, so don’t over use that one either. The most I’ve ever heard it get used is teachers referring to older students who may be able to help us with something.

“See if your senpai can help you with this”.

Anyways, hope this helped!

Alright, so. 🤡 We all know that Leona's the captain of the Magical Shift/Spelldrive Club at NRC (moving forward, I will refer to this as "Magift Club", since that's the shortest phrase). What's more is, we actually get quite a bit of information about how he goes around running the club and training its members (although the information is scattered across various vignettes, so it may be difficult to piece it all together if you don't know where to look or don't read certain vignettes). THIS IS THE GOOD STUFF THOUGH, THIS IS A GOLD MINE OF LuONA CHA EARCTERiXATION AND I'M GOINOG TO POP of DFF ABOUT IT

Firstly! In book 2 of the main story, Jack tells us that he was impressed by Leona's amazing play in a Magift game three years ago. This would later become a part of Jack's motivation to attend Night Raven College--so he could become a great athlete, and, perhaps, get to play against or alongside that player that he admired so much. Even when Jack learns that Leona is playing dirty to eliminated Diasomnia from the interdorm tournament, Jack exposes that he believes Leona is capable of securing a victory by playing fairly. Maybe you could call it a freshman's naive beliefs, but Jack knows that Leona is better than this. What book 2 shows us is that Leona is willing to resort to underhanded tactics to come out on top--but he's also very skilled in his own right, both physically and intellectually, and even at his lowest points, he has people who trust him to lead them: people like Jack. But where does this faith and respect come from???????? For that, we'll have to dive into additional materials.

In many vignettes, such as Ace's PE Uniform and Ruggie's Outdoor Wear, we hear from other characters that the Magift Club members train rigorously (usually to the point of exhaustion). Ruggie, a fellow Magift Club member, confesses to his inexperience; he never played Magift before coming to NRC and he's not a born athlete. He seriously considered quitting the club due to their physically demanding practice and training. However, Ruggie credits Leona for the vast improvement he has made, citing that Leona would give him all kinds of assignments to hone his skills. More importantly, doing all of these assignments also taught Ruggie how to endure and persist in the face of adversity. Ruggie could have just lied here and said the training was easy to quickly and artificially inflate the numbers of new recruits he pulls in to please Leona (some of the new recruits would end up dropping out anyway) BUT HE DOESN'T. This leads me to believe that Ruggie is being honest about what it takes to be in Magift Club and is genuinely praising Leona's guidance as a part of why it's beneficial to join. "Leona makes every session worthwhile [...] He makes all the calls during our games, but otherwise lets us do our thing. Which means we can work out our problem spots for ourselves. He's a great captain!"

Epel, the other main cast member in Magift Club, has not yet joined at the time of the flashback in Ruggie's Outdoor Wear vignette. Upon hearing Ruggie's praise of Leona, Epel gets the impression that Leona is an incredible person. Post-joining the club, this impression continues. In his Birthday Jacket vignettes, Epel describes Leona as someone who is quick-witted, fierce-looking, and has a cool personality. He really admires Leona and wants to be like him someday, making him the second first year that has these sort of sentiments. Epel tells stories similar to Ruggie, saying that Leona has helped him out a lot during club and is generally good at looking out for others. He specifically mentions that everyone counts on Leona for his leadership during games and provides individualized advice to help each team member improve (details which supports what Ruggie initially told the freshmen). People outside of Leona’s reign also comment on this, such as Ace in Endless Halloween Night. He remarks that the first thing Leona thought to do was untie Epel; this leads Ace to conclude that Leona, does, in fact, look out for people despite how he usually acts 🤡

Epel also says that he "knows" Leona would help him study if he were on the verge of failing a class. AND YOU KNOW WHAT??????????? Leona actually DOES tutor Ruggie (who initially descibes his grades as being "in the dumpster") and gives advice and materials to him. Now Ruggie's grades are average, but passing. In his Labwear vignettes, Leona doesn't formally teach Epel, but he does make a voice-changing potion to help Epel out (although his own ulterior motive was to avoid Rook, who was the one that originally helped Epel). When Epel and Grim then beg Leona to show them his technique, he refuses and seems annoyed at their requests. In other words, Leona doesn't seem eager to teach others unless it serves a purpose for himself.

Leons is oftentimes pushing others to perform well, and in a way that serves a dual purpose of helping the individual out but also ultimately benefitting him. For example, Leona helps sand Azul’s contracts because he wants to as terminate an agreement he has with Azul. Additionally, he plots in book 2 not only to help his dorm mates be noticed by Magift scouts, but also to prove his own worth as a leader. In yet another instance, Leona shows students outside of his club how to efficiently mine for magestone so they can fulfill their goal and earn a Vargas Badge. This clears them out of the cave so he can nap there. Leona is working smarter, not necessarily harder. Relating this to Magift Club... As Ruggie and Epel have told us, Leona runs his members ragged during practice. As a rich kid and royalty, he’s said to have a natural inclination for being demanding and ordering others around—but there’s always some kind of compensation or reward for following orders well. Ruggie gets many perks from doing Leona’s errands and chores for him, so he willingly follows Leona. For the Magift Club, the intense training causes those unable or unwilling to keep up to quit, leaving behind the go-getters, the tough, and the willful. Not only are these the types of people most likely to do well in actually playing the sport, but they’re also the types of people Leona himself is seeking with play with.

When your players are willing and able to train hard and by themselves (knowing what their strengths and weaknesses are, as well as how to improve), it encourages… independence. It means less work for the captain to do. It means having a group of people who are obedient and obey your every word. It means Leona can get away with napping during club practice. He's working them hard now so they can take care of themselves later and he has to do less. That seems to be the implication in some instances, as Riddle had noted before that, “it has been a while since [he has seen Leona] sincerely apply himself to his club activities.” (That's because Leona has already trained his team to be comfortable train on their own! This is demonstrated in the flashback of his Beastly Garb vignettes, when Leona instructs his club to do cooldown exercises "on their own while he heads off to nap.) And believe me, when he’s “applying himself”, his talent shines through (just as his intelligence does when he wants to employ it). As Epel and Ruggie say in Leona’s Halloween vignette (flashback), 5 people tried to get the disc away from Leona for 30 minutes and still weren’t successful while Leona barely broke a sweat. Part of the reason why Leona is able to afford bossing his team members around is because he can walk the walk. His own abilities, then, also serve as a point of motivation for the rest of the team. They want to be able to perform on the same level as him, want the honor to play with someone like that. We see one prominent example of this in his Dorm Uniform vignettes. In them, Jack is being bullied by Savanaclaw (senpai) mobs because they're annoyed with his athletic abilities and righteous attitude. These mobs also accurse Leona of being unworthy to lead them because "all [he does] is slack off during practice". They quickly learn the true magnitude of Leona's strength when he defends Jack from 30 mobs at once, not only demonstrating that he is fit for the title of captain, but also someone that has earned Jack's respect.

Though the Dorm Uniform vignettes ultimately frame Leona as siding with Jack, there is a lot of strategic thinking and wisdom in the advice he imparts to both parties involved in the quarrel. He argues in favor of the mobs "skirting the rules", which falls in line with his willingness to disregard morality so long as he achieves an end goal (see: his actions against Azul in book 3, and his actions in book 2 against Malleus). In this case, Jack preaching about playing by the rules is getting in the way of their goals (which will resurface in book 2). That's why he gets put in time-out to "think about his actions", and how he sees the world as black and white, evil and good. To Leona, it's not cheating, it's just playing smart and within the rules specifically specified (the mobs still acted within the boundaries set by rules) or what isn't specifically outlawed (they can't lose to Malleus if he can't play to begin with) to get what he wants. To this point, Leona also sees no shame in strategic retreats and surrenders. This is illustrated by him willingly turning himself into STYX when they approach, and passing on temporary leadership to Ruggie while he's gone. Again, he's just working with what he has in the systems that are presented to him, and he expects everyone else to be able to play the same game. While Leona tells Jack off, it's also true that Leona does have some code of honor as it relates to his own interests; he tells the mobs they're acting embarrassing by "punching down" and being jealous of a freshman. This doesn't come from a place of concern for Jack, or from worry about their attitude, but primarily from irritation that he has to clean up after their behavior. As we see in book 2, Leona himself has no issue with playing Magift against freshmen who are new to the sport (Ace, Deuce, etc.) when they've come unannounced into his dormitory. It's Jack who has to intervene there and call Leona out for picking on the small fry. Even Leona warning the mobs for using magic outside of Magift is a ploy to serve his own agenda. It's against school rules to use magic unless instructed; Leona is, therefore, against his students wailing on Jack using magic instead of fists because it could attract undue attention from staff (and thus cause issues for him, as their dorm leader). This is also why Leona wants to take on the Heartslabyul detective group in a game of Magift instead of just fighting them then and there; it's to avoid causing such a ruckus right before the big interdorm tournament. Leona has a problem with people challenging his authority and making unnecessary trouble for him to fix. When it serves his interests, he'll turn, and/or he won't side completely with one party. He can easily see the pros and the cons of both sides. If Jack is black and white, then Leona is all grey.

This is another notable quality of Leona's: he can identify and understand people's strengths and weaknesses, sometimes even better than they do themselves. His own club members can attest to how Leona gives them specific advice to improve their skills. In fact, we get to see one instance of it in Leona's Beastly Garb vignettes. Epel asks Leona for advice on how to better control the disc, since he's been missing passes and dropping them a lot. Leona responds by telling him not to worry about it and then walking off. A lot of people might look at this and say "he's just being lazy and shirking his work again". But later in the vignette, Leona explains his rationale: Epel's strength is his speed. When he's handling a disc as he's flying, that significantly cuts down on that speed and hinders his overall performance. If Epel tries to get better at all these things at once, he'll neglect his actual strength and not be useful to the team. Leona reasons that since making objects float is a fundamental skill for a mage, Epel will naturally practice it more and improve with time, so in the meantime he should dedicate his time in club to what he's already got as an asset.

This discerning eye is not just limited to club members, either. Leona has shown that, time and time again, he can key in on people. It was Leona who recognized Ace's craftiness and how Ace planned to use Leona's presence to his own advantage in Endless Halloween Night. Leona doesn't worry about the potential harm a wayward disc could have caused Riddle because he knows Riddle could easily deflect it with his own magic (in Ace's PE vignette). He alone noticed that Jamil's eyes "always glare" and senses his malicious intent against Kalim (in Jamil's School Uniform vignette). This is WAY before the events of book 4 ever came out too. Then, in book 6, Leona points out that Ruggie knows how keep to the strongest people to make up for his own deficits, how Jack knows how to adhere to a hierarchy, and how even Kalim has strengths in how amicable he is, and the wealth he was born into. He knows when people aren't meeting their full potential too, telling Jamil that he keeps making excuses instead of actually acting.

What makes the whole conversation Leona has with Jamil so great is that a lot of what is said is relatable for the two of them. Leona, too, knows what it's like to be in a situation where others shun his talents in favor of another. That's why he's able to speak so pointedly on the matter. It's that connection that helps to move Jamil and motivate him to finally act on his own to fulfill a support role for Leona that he needs later on. There's a parallel here with how Leona acted in book 2; he tried and tried and tried, and when he failed, he sat down and gave it all up, blaming his team mates and claiming he played along with their game. Leona was a quitter before. But now he's seeing that same behavior in others and he's calling it out, bluntly posing the question of if they're going to continue to wallow or if they're going to pick themselves up and move forward. It's the same lesson that HE had to learn for himself. If you consider that his Dorm Uniform vignettes play out prior to book 2, it becomes even more fitting for his growth since he tells Jack back then: "[...] guys who own up to their mistakes are all right in my book. Keep at it and model that behavior for the rest of Savanaclaw." This is Leona owning up to his own mistakes. He never openly and formally apologizes what his wrongdoings or promised to "be better" (then again, some OB boys just don't), but he's making up for his past behavior by imparting the wisdom he learned with his peers, whether subconsciously (like, out of guilt) or consciously.

This all goes hand-in-hand with the high standards Leona has set for Magift Club. Cater asks him for the details of his club's training (in Leona's Broomquet), to which the birthday boy responds with a story about how a team member didn't have enough stamina for a game, so instead of training them to pass the disc, he purposefully chucked the disc as far as it would go. It's to demonstrate to the club member that was lacking in stamina that this is the distance they need to be able to go, and this is their current disparity. It comes off as perhaps too harsh (and certainly a means to quit the club), but as Leona puts it, he doesn't want nor need cowards with him. His team should be full of people who get frustrated when they cannot meet their goals and will actively think about how to be better, then come back and try again and again. Think of it like how Mulan found smarter ways to tackle the challenges put forth by the army, rather than training the conventional way. That's what Leona expects of his club members, and it's the same mentality that drives himself. Tackling the same problem using creative solutions--it's like a game of chess. qbkhldyuFVYOwovyifS ;fslh ihof Aana dnAn thEN MCaER T SAYS smsethbha TH LIKE "waaaah~ Leona-kun is such a cool leader~" AFSHYJASVYOIFADOS AND THANE THAT FUCKE R LONA ' JUST G oeaS "this is to be expected of every leader, it's the basics" UNM???????? ??? ??? ???? ?

Emo teen nanami x reader

Emo teen nanami,fluff,both of you are pinning but are idiots lmao

*.✧∘˚˳°*.✧∘˚˳°*.✧∘˚˳°*.✧∘˚˳°*.✧∘˚˳°*.✧∘˚˳°*.✧∘˚˳°*.✧∘

Nanami Kento likes sweets.

Not as much as his senapi,Gojo satoru,but he still enjoys sweets.

And you always enjoyed sharing whatever you've got your hands on after a mission with him.

So when you're both done with your mission one late night;body sore and hungry,your eyes shine when you spot an open bakery.

You immediately wrap your fingers around his wrist, ignoring the way he shoots you a confused look before starting to run toward the shop. And as soon as you open the door,the smell of freshly baked breads and sweets makes your tired muscles relax immediately. A small giggle finds its way to your lips and you turn around to look at your classmates with excitement.

"Nanami-san! What do you want to eat?"

Nanami looks around the shop;the warm light from above you both making his golden hair shine. He looks back at you, raising one brow slightly.

"are you hungry?"

"I'm starvingggg," you whine, tugging at his hand again, "c'mon!im craving sweets!"

"you sound like gojo-san."

You scrunch your nose but giggle anyway, "i guess his bad habit of always eating sweets is rubbing off on me."

Then you let go of his hand,and pretend to not miss his warmth immediately.

You wonder through each section,taking your time to select each sweets and bread. Since it was night,most of the goods were already sold out. Your eyes wonder aimlessly as you walk slowly with your hands behind your back,so far only picking a pack of chocolate chip cookies.

And when you reach the front row,your eyes widen and you let out a squeal of excitement.

"Nanami!!Nanami come here!!!"

The man immediately rushes to your side and you see his brown eyes widen slightly.

You grin,and hold the cream filled bread,his favorite,up for him to see.

"they have your favorite!!! it's been a while since you had it right?"

Because you would know. After all,it was you who always got him that bread.

Nanami nods,a small smile making the corner of his lips lift slightly.

"ok!!lets get bunch of these and bring it back for everyone too!"

And what can Nanami do, except for watching you bounce happily to the lady in front, searching your pockets for your wallet and your smile faltering when you dont find it. Nanami just sighs,walking next to you and stopping your hand from searching further into your uniform. When you give him a confused look,he just pulls out his own wallet and pays for the treats you've bought. He coughs and not get flustered when you give him a cheerful 'thanks' . His heart beats a bit faster when your pink cheeks puffs up when you stuff half of the cream filled bread in your mouth,and let out a happy groan at the taste.

Then you hold out the rest of bread to him,and look up at him with your pretty eyes.

Nanami's palms feel awfully sweaty as he reaches for his half of share.

You both keep walking toward the dorms as you munch on your sweets,an odd comfortable silence filling the gap.

And when your hands brush against each other and you push your fingers between his,he tries to stop the heat from crawling further up his neck.

He glances at you from the corner of his eye,and you squeeze his hand once.

Nanami smiles and takes another bite of the bread. As you walk in the dead of the night,he cant help but to think that the treat had never been sweeter

Oh Suzuka-senapi, are we allowed to hit you up on ...Whatever the messaging app is here? Void chat or something I am guessing by the theming. Not like, advice or anything, just to talk and check up on you. :) Also for fashion advice maybe. We do have Caster who is an icon but two knowledgable fashion people are better than one, right?

SUZUKA GOZEN: "Oh, totally! Hit me up whenever you want!"

APOLLO: "…Uuf. This is hard to watch. This has to be how Eros feels when he sees people who'd be great together wrangle their way to just being 'good friends'."

The sheep bounced over, whispering directly into your ear.

APOLLO: "Do I have to sing a song to push you guys to ask the girl to come with you? The chick is a celestial maiden of the nth degree. That aside, you clearly like her. Shoot your shot."

Short translation from Twisted Wonderland: the first novel

After the drama of Riddle's overblot Ace calls Yuuya stubborn, completely catching him off guard.

“Stubborn? Yuuya is speechless. No one has ever called him that in his entire life. ‘Well, that’s just…’

Yuuya tries to justify himself, but finds that he cannot explain it away.

'No one just walks up to a housewarden in a situation like that and tells them, ‘Let’s not fight anymore!’. Cater-senpai even got all serious, and still couldn’t do anything.’

‘It’s true, ever since the Dwarf Mine,’ Deuce laughs, leaving Yuuya stunned.

Stubborn? Him? Yuuya has avoided so many things in his life in order to stay out of fights—that is how much he hates them. He has intentionally never had any hobbies or made any friends, expressly for that reason.

But is that really why? Or had he just not been able to?

He didn’t want to rock the boat through interpersonal relationships. So he just avoided all conflict. But is that all?

Watching Riddle-senpai throughout all of this, Yuuya thinks he may have come to understand something. Maybe he just prioritized his own principles over friendship. If that is the case, he may be far more self-centered than he’d realized.

Ace nudges Yuuya’s shoulder.

‘Well, it’s better than being all embarrassingly self-righteous. You don’t go around saying that it’s for everyone else’s benefit. Saying that it’s just about you makes you more trustworthy.’

‘But I, Ace and Deuce—you both, I really…’

‘Yeah, yeah—we get it.’ Ace waves him off to dismiss the topic.

Yuuya looks to Deuce, who shares a glance with Ace and smiles. Deuce gives a shrug as if to say, ‘Don’t worry about it.’"

‘You’re flustered, Ace. You’re just as contrary as Yuu is.’

‘Shut up,’ Ace retorts.

Considering how long they’ve known each other, Yuuya isn’t sure if it is okay to call the two of them his friends yet. They might dislike it if he did.

But this is the first time that Yuuya has felt so strongly about wanting to be there for someone. And it seems to be getting across to them, quite clearly.

In an attempt to move on from the awkward topic, Ace clears his throat.

‘By the way, Yuu, do you have any plans after this?’

‘After this?’ Yuuya looks at Ramshackle Dorm’s clock. It is not even 8 in the morning.

‘I haven't decided when, but I was thinking of going to the library to study today,' Yuuya says.

He has been busy with prepping and reviewing, every day, in order to keep up with his classes. Just two days ago, Professor Crewel gave him a reference book with a note saying, ‘read this over the weekend.’

Though the book is labeled as being for middle school students, it is still nearly incomprehensible to Yuuya without a dictionary. And he still hasn’t finished reading the book he borrowed from Professor Trein, or done the daily training taught to him by Professor Vargas.

He is busy with assignments every day, but still feels fulfilled.

‘So that’s a no,’ Ace says, rising to his feet.

‘Why?’

‘Because of the Unbirthday Party. It’s today.’

Grim’s ears give a twitch. ‘Party…delicious food…?’

‘Oh, right, and there’s a present for you from Cater-senapi.’

‘Present!?’

Yuuya gives a wry smile at the suddenly very much awake, very self-serving Grim.

‘But holding it today—was it just suddenly announced?’

‘There has been talk about hosting it as soon as Housewarden Rosehearts recovered, so there was a rough plan in place for a while. But we decided to keep it a secret from you and Grim until everything was ready.’

‘Ready? You mean for the party?’

Deuce grins and slides a hand inside his jacket. Ace is smiling as well, as though plotting something.

‘Here. Put this on and let’s get to that Unbirthday Party.’

Staring at what Deuce holds out to them, Grim and Yuuya’s eyes go wide."

Yeah, there were a lot of things to prepare, so it's easier to eat brekfast now while I'm running

At least eat before instead of making me eat first!!

Pag 6

1: This guys!! He makes tremendous sacrifices!!

2: Th-thank you....

No, it's okay, it's okay, it's not a big deal

3: I already told you before, teh, but this it's all thanks to your suggestion yesterday, Kinaka-kun, teh

6: Ah.... it hurts

7: You okay, Rokudai?

Ughhh, I got a leg cramp while I was washing my back earlier

8: Tomorrow is the “second day” of training camp

9: Now, the two of us are standing at a crossroad, and there are two things.... that's what I'm thinking

Pag 7

1: We ran 180km today, it was difficult and our bodies hurt all over

And tomorrow too, we'll continue running, for another three days

2: Piling up distance ran with a goal of 1000m

3: Two?

This is the first

4: The other thing is

Can we catch up with the senpais running 250km....

6: and keep an eye on the ticket to become Inter High members....?

7: To do that, we have to run in a moment when no one else is running...

It could be too much, and we could be down and retire around the third day

8: “Retire”!!

9: Aiming for the medal “I ran”....

Pag 8

1: Or falling spectacularly aiming for the first six places!!

3: Our senapis are strong!! There's no way we'll win!!

Honestly, I know it's reckless

But I can't run without trying to close the gap

4: Before my eyes!!

Pag 9

4: Kinaka-kun, let's switch, teh

Yeah!!

Pag 10

1: Let's switch, Rokudai!!

Yeah, teh!!

2: We'll close it!! This distance!!

3: We'll do it somehow!!

4: We're aiming to finish among the first six places in this training camp!!

Pag 11

1: Aalright, nice, Rokudai, this pace is good

Yeah!!

2: Sixth lap!!

4: We've been doing okay for now, right!?

You know, I, there's something I've been feeling lately

5: Can I tell you? Kinaka-kun....

Pag 12

3: Kinaka-kun!!

4: Are you alright!?

No, wai...

Are you hurt!?

Is it the horizontal knee muscle?

5: I'm okay, it starts hurting here sometimes... I'm used to it

I just have to apply torque.... and I can go

Pag 13

1: It's probably because yesterday, since the first lap, I used  too much “straight” and now I'm feeling it

2: Straight road!!

4: If we slowly finish this last half a lap, at the “start goal” there's taping, teh

Yeah, thanks

8: That guy, he really has a nice touch

Pag 14

1: I'll pull more, teh!!

Sorry about that!!

5: We have five laps left, teh

6: Rokudai...

7: Dammit!!

Pag 15

1: I'm so grateful, Rokudai!!

2: I've never felt so reassured in having someone like you!!

3: When I was in middle school, when I told people I wanted to go to Sohoku, they told me it was impossible

4: I wanted to do my best, by deep in my heart I was anxious

5: That's probably because I have always been alone!!

6: I'm so glad I came to Sohoku!!

Pag 16

1: Let's switch!!

2: I'll pull for the last two laps!!

3: This is my Straight Road of gratitude!!

Woah, it's faster than it usually is!!

Pag 17

1: Yeeaaah!!

Now we're on par with the senpais with a total of “250km”!!

I'm so glad, Rokudai!!

Pag 18

1: We did it....!!

2: The morning sun is rising completely!!

Yeah!!

3: Waaa, everyone will already be havng breakfast!!

That's bad, let's hurry

4: For the next three days

5: Will you run together with me, Rokudai?

Huh!?

6: No matter how hard it is, let's go

Pag 19

1: The two of us, to the Inter High!!

2: Yeah, teh!!

3: Ah, by the way, there was one more thing I want to tell you, Kinaka-kun, teh

Oh? Oh? What is it!? Maybe that I shouldn't be so arrogant....?

Kinaka-kun, recently

Pag 20

1: The things you say aren't bland at all, teh!!

2: Now... I had enough sleep and my physical condition is perfect too

3: We'll try that soon....!!

4: Don't go easy on them, Danchiku!!

Skyblue comforting Sick Boyfriend (My AU)

From my last post, I posted how Sick Boyfriend told Skyblue about being sexually abused by IMP Senapi a few months ago.

So I made this post of Skyblue comforting Sick Boyfriend, feeling bad for him that he had to go through that.

"Breakable? Senapi sure is acting real~ cocky despite being a weak little human. It's kinda cute, though."
