#shes both a himejoshi and a fujoshi

She thought too much

[almoststedytimetravel]

Alright, because I need to plan out everything before I start conquest I'm putting up my pairings and their reasonings

Corrin/Kaze (I like their support, Kaze bby girl you are deserving of my love and devotion. He's also very attractive)

Jacob/Beruka (I paired up Jacob last and the only remaining women were Elise and Beruka and I'm not pairing up Elise. Hope their support is good because I've never read it)

Azura/Laslow ("You will be my inspiration" "and you my muse" "May our song never end" Sickening, they have replaced the inside of my brain. Also conquest makes this pair a huge ouch, an owie if you will. Also Soleil looks very pretty with light blue hair)

Silas/Charlotte (I don't know why I did this one. Sophie looks fine with blond hair, but her growth rates have very big numbers)

Xander/Peri (Mutuals gave me quality food for these two and giving Sieg the ugliest hair possible is the true goal of fates)

Leo/Felicia (Gives Forrest very pretty hair)

Benny/Mozu (Big guy and small girl. Very cute)

Keton/Camilia (Little red riding hood but she's also a princess with a pretty lavender streak of hair)

Arther/Effie (Cute hair colour for Percy)

Odin/Nyx (Nyx stating plainly that she really likes Odin's theatrics and her envy over Odin's passion for magic. I really like them. Also Odin saying that Nyx's backstory is way more dark and tragic than his when Odin's backstory is *Wildly gesturing at Awakening* all of that, delicious)

Niles/Selena (Bisexuals with abandonment issues, but one also has commitment issues in this specific context. Niles falling in love with Selena because of her girl fail antics and Selena saying "Alright you can hit it but we can only get married after I tell you my big secret post game". Also the Nina, Soleil, Ophelia trio being the awakening trio's kids feel right. Like they're all besties but this just feels right, you know)

do you think poppy is a fujoshi

poppy is both a fujoshi AND a himejoshi, she has layers

[coquettedragoon]

is bell a fujoshi or a himejoshi. or both

both, but maybe more himejoshi. she can only really get into yaoi if one or both characters are crossdressing

Not Instagram Bandori fandom are in denial that Bandori is not a good lesbian representation and the "ship tease" was only created to satisfy crazy himejoshis (they are basically fujoshis who fetishizing lesbian ships) so they can fetishizes the girls with porn shit but nooo the fandom be like "stfu bandori is a wonderful lesbian representation you are just BASED 😜" like there are lots of hidden yet blatant fetishism (in a bad, gross way) in the series.

Not to mention, Kaoru is literally a butch lesbian bait and her entire character is just for fetish (explain why her stans are so horny and thirsty but in gross way). Same shit like Rei/LAYER and Rui, where both are minors yet has adult-like appearance (especially Rui), so this fandom can justify their gross comment to them with "bUt tHeY LoOk tOo mAtUrE fOr a MiNoRs 🥺"

Good representation does not contain nasty gross fetishes and more than just their sexuality. Like, don't make the representation seen as a nasty fetish object, but make them feel seen as appreciated and get what they have feel validated. Bandori fails to do that.

mmm i think i disagree with a bit of this but while seeing where ur coming from if that makes sense?

i guess first i should say that im bi not a lesbian so its not my place to speak on this as much as others but i think the "representation" is nice? like its subtle in some places (kasuari or mocaran for example) but way more overt in specific cases like pareo and kaoru.

i guess i will say that fans of kaoru, layer, and rui do seem to be more sexual about it? but i think most of the time they are also minors so its not as harmful as if it might be if it was adults. not to suggest there aren't weird horny adults in the bandori fandom of course!! i also think the design of rei (especially how she is almost always posing to show off her ass???) is meant to be more adult but shes 16/17 to keep her in line with the rest of the cast bc she looks exactly like if someone said draw raychell in anime style. rui is worse bc although she looks basically exactly the same as ayasa they said on a stream that morfonica were designed THEN cast. so its either a hell of a coincidence or (more likely imo) rui was designed with ayasa in mine before she even got the role.

besides some overly-suggestive card art here and there (unfortunately just a part of mobage it seems) im not sure what you mean by fetish-y stuff? so if you don't mind elaborating i'd appreciate that but definitely don't feel pressured

aqours bl/gl preference list as promised

riko: canon himejoshi. reads so so so much yuri but she will take that to her deathbed

you: bl. she also reads gl but she doesnt like how girly femme gl is usually

chika: mix of both. doesnt seek it out just reads whats popular

ruby: himejoshi. squeaks when she sees two girls near each other. she was briefly a fujoshi but then saw the light

yohane: proud himejoshi and fujoshi. gets invasive into others love lives

maru: she doesnt know what these words mean

kanan: lesbian yaoi

mari: himejoshi forever but doesnt read it she gets bitches in real life

dia: closet fujoshi. ruby found their doujins

my fave bit of love live is that there was a whole episode about one character buying copious amounts of yuri manga and trying to hide it from her friends. and shes debatedly the gayest alongside you (not you as in the reader, you is her name). read the lyrics for misty frosty love and try to tell me its in any way platonic. riko is a himejoshi canonically
