#so how about that mizu5

[starduststorm-art]

this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real this can't be real

this is unbearable.

if we could stay connected, just like this

[catgirlzugy]

i think mizu5 foreshadows that ena is going to understand bc of the entire thing with the mystery escape room and how ena is the one who figures out that mizuki would have the final answer hidden among one of the stuffed animals bc that's "so like her" and /she was right/. yeah it ended up being in the stuffed animal hanging up from the ceiling, but mizuki herself says that this was touya's idea bc he wanted a twist, so ena technically figured it out?

the escape room and the key that should have been in reach which was moved out of reach due to the ideas of another person! it's not that toya is transphobic but i feel like the way he sort of co-opts mizuki's idea for the final answer of the escape room by inserting his own idea of a twist is meant to be analogous to how ena was almost about to grasp mizuki's own secret through mizuki herself and her language before mizuki got co-opted by her transmisogynistic classmates from a narrative standpoint.

it's the key ripped out of reach - oh, it's more "fun" if you make it more complicated unnecessarily even though that takes away the personal satisfaction. they remove mizuki's voice.

the escape room is genuinely so vital to understanding the intent? it's literally mizuki's heart. her shirt even has 3 symbols on it: maze, lock and key. it couldn't be more obvious. mizuki and locked rooms... if you read umineko, you'd understand...

does anyone else hear that ominous bell tolling

[just-apple-strudel]

If you just finished reading Mizu5 and want to feel more pain and suffering, you should listen to "Devil of the Classroom" by Utsu-P

[cheruverse]

psst. project moon fans who are also project sekai fans (or the other way around), which niigo character should i draw for their distortion form?

of course, most voted character will be drawn! if i have enough time and motivation i might as well draw the 2nd character w the most votes :))

do keep in mind my schedule is really packed so i may post the drawings at a later date

[okiria]

i have so much unwritten ria angst but this is okiria in the hypothetical spinoff that exists in my beautiful mind palace. peace and love

[noname-nonartist]

Okay, So I'm not making Mizu5 about An, because it's not. And like An has a very small role within the story event. However... I can't help but think about how interesting the 2-A theme is dress-up. It makes me wonder if An has strongly suggested their class to do it since it would help Mizuki blend in more. Something An mentioned to Mizuki on the last school festival. Yeah, there is a hugeeeee chance that I'm reaching due to my bias (I deeply love Mizuki's and An's friendship). Like it is highly possible that there are just that many peeps within 2-A that love making clothes/fashion (heck Akito is a street fashion nerd). But this is also something An would do to help make Mizuki feel more comfortable in school. There has been times where An would subtlety do things to make sure Mizuki is happy and comfortable. Such as An's words/action in the previously mentioned Kamiyama School Festival Event, but also in the Cheerleading Squad Event too. Where An purposefully pick the short end so she can be part of the squad with Mizuki.

quick mizu5 rant because I’ve seen one too many shit takes on TikTok and oh my god I’m so pissed. I know that most people have common sense but there are so many people that do not and Its beyond baffling.

No, Mizuki is not a boy. No, she didn’t look into the camera and say “My name is Mizuki Akiyama and I’m a transgender girl”, and she doesn’t need to in order for it to be clear. She is not a cross dresser, she is trans.

“But the classmates were calling her a boy!1!!!1!” They’re transphobic bullies. Look at the surrounding context, for once in your life. They said that they thought Ena was a ”normal girl” when they found out that she and Mizuki are friends. It’s exceedingly obvious once you get your heads out of your fucking “the curtain is just blue” transphobic asses.

A boy wouldn’t react like that to someone saying that they’re a boy. Do you know who would, especially in this context and the surrounding lore of the entire game? A trans girl— Mizuki.

The game makes it so obvious what’s going on. You shouldn’t need to have your hand held to understand what’s going on. If you know literally anything about Mizuki’s character, and if you know how to read, her transness is so clear. It’s right there in bright neon fucking pink.

Media literacy is dead I swear to god

Me after reading Mizu5 Ch. 7 & 8:

I have so much to say for this event, especially as a fellow trans person myself (I’m specifically agender but it’s under the nonbinary umbrella which is under the trans umbrella)

SPOILERS FOR MIZU5 EVENT

Tw/// one mention about unaliving

So first off, the first time I saw the leaks for Mizu5 event (October 11, 2024) I was scared like “oh no did ena not accept them?”

But then I saw a post about how it’s more likely that Mizuki’s asshole of a classmate might of told Ena their secret

Now, the WORST feeling for anybody, not just LGBTQ+ people to fell, is to work up the courage to tell someone you trust, your secret, a secret that THEY KNOW is very important, only to get outted by someone else

The fear I felt when reading the event and the way my heart clutched was worst than I thought it would it when I finally got to Chapter 7.

The expression, the way Mizuki’s face gone pale. That I can feel. And omg Hinata-san did such an amazing job on the voice acting (she even said something about crying after recording those lines). I felt the fear and tension.

And omg the card. Is so beautiful but it so painful to look at

The way their eyes are covered, and the mirror being broken. They can’t bare to look at themselves.

The way the clothes are torn as if they have been ripped off. I saw a comment where it felt like Mizuki’s mask has been ripped off (not by her own choice) which can explain how their clothes here are ripped off and i can see how it makes perfect sense. They were ripped off, exposed by their classmates. They were ripped off the opportunity, the courage to tell Ena their secret in their own terms

The red I felt like… can resemble blood. Kinda like ripping off a bandaid kind of feeling. Idk why. Maybe it just kinda feels like they’re bleeding from the emotional wounds.

The way my heart clutched seeing this and also how it sent chilled down my spine. I can’t even begin to explain how I felt about this.

Now, I think people will think they will unalive themselves (which is a possibility bc they said at the end “I want to disappear”), but the wording here is “temporarily stop appearing in the ‘real world’”. Meaning: mizuki will probably hang around SEKAI instead of being in the real world. What’s even sadder is that I saw a tweet where it said that Mizuki here is basically going back to their middle school self. Which HURTS

Anyways, that’s my thoughts on the recent Mizu5. As a trans person, I never felt more fear for Mizuki and I truly hope they can be happy again someday…

[girltoya]

I think people are overestimating the impact Mizu5 will have on the rest of the cast’s events. The only explanation I can think of for this is that Mizu5 is the first event a lot of the fandom has read and it is very telling…

Events don’t intertwine like how a lot of people are talking about them. No, Akito5 won’t be about Mizuki. In fact, I am almost confident she won’t even be mentioned at all. Don’t forget that Akito5 is an arc starter, this event will solely focus on the next steps for VBS after having surpassed RAD WEEKEND.

Plus, Mizuki not showing up to school isn’t new. An, Akito, and Toya will not be worrying themselves sick, if anything they’ll be thinking Damn she’ll need to do supplementary classes again… Events are not as linked as linked as some people are making them out to be.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s great that people are starting to read the stories, it’s great that this event caused so much of an impact that people want to talk about it and theorise what will happen next, but maybe this could also be a catalyst for people to read other events too.

You don’t have to force yourself to read events for groups you might not be as interested in, but choosing a group and reading everything they have to offer is just as good. It’ll give you a lot more to talk about regarding the game too (and perhaps it’ll stop pointless story discourse on top of that, but we can only hope).

[catgirlzugy]

still in disbelief about how mizu5 genuinely captures the subtleties of transmisogyny so accurately like nothing else i've seen before especially with the nuances with which mizuki's story is told … all it takes is a single sentence, a few words … i love that the classmates saying that shit don't even … realize how cruel they are, bc that's how it /is/ and bc "oh no, we said something weird to a Normal Girl, that makes us look bad" - transmisogyny is just a punchline to a joke for them, that's how detached they are from their own cruelty and it's really not any different from the 'average' misogyny and how that tends to be a joke amongst boys. what ena ended up being exposed to is really just the classmates' 'boy's locker room talk' leaking out, so to speak? ena's probably heard jokes from people about how unfeminine her behavior is in the past and she quickly spits out "that's not funny" bc ena and mizuki are both "pretty girls" who like fashion and dolling themselves up, and hearing them talk about how mizuki's cute in this way … i'm sure it reminds her of her own experiences with being an 'influencer' - people like her when she shuts up and makes herself cute and appealing and ena must've absolutely received her fair share of comments and messages from weirdos for posting selfies of herself online, but i think what drives this home to me as such a fantastic narrative is the way that they call mizuki "attractive as long as she's not making any trouble and being a pain" bc it really speaks to how trans girls are objectified and only deemed 'acceptable' as long as they make themselves into limpless dolls who are acceptable targets for any form of abuse and misogyny instead of trying to claim their own subjectivity as women, so there's so much crossover in how mizuki's experiences work alongside ena's? but also mizuki faces so much more constant and direct criticism, all her actions and choices so closely under scrutiny.

mizuki loves and appreciates the attention of girls and when she first met ena she saw herself in the art that ena made - ena draws a girl in pain and mizuki goes "she's me". in the scene where mizuki gets outed, ena is speechless not bc she thinks mizuki is "gross" or bc she's mad mizuki "tricked" her? she's just horrified that she just got degendered /by association/ and then had to listen to these boys speak about the girl she's in love with in this /aggressively/ violent way, especially since mizuki has a meltdown, knowing, apologizing for hurting, even as ena would absolutely say "no, i'm sorry, im sorry, please don't hate vourself" bc mizuki feels like she's the one at fault for feeling like ena would assume the worst of her, but mizuki also feels like she doesn't have the right to be angry at people … this is the first time we get to see mizuki's rage and it's so palpable … i love so much that she hates the idea of niigo's kindness being born out of her 'abnormality' as a trans girl … she hates everything about this. she hates the idea of coming out, she hates the idea of having a question attached to her girlhood..

mizuki logically knows that niigo are going to accept her bc they've also gone through so much turmoil themselves and understand what it's like to be on the fringes of society, but she still can't shake off all those intrusive thoughts about how they might only accept her out of pity or consideration bc they feel too bad for her rather than a genuine understanding and the idea that things might change between them bc of that is too terrifying to embrace… such patronizing 'kindness' burns too much for mizuki to accept, so she'd rather run away and shut herself out completely… for mizuki it's like being stuck on a bridge where the only two ways out are ones where nothing changes and this hurts in its own way bc she can't tell how much of it would be genuine and how much would be an act and the other way is them /trying too hard/ to be considerate and this can easily become alienating bc mizuki truly just wants to be "one of the girls" in the most natural sense? she doesn't want to be made to feel like she's being accommodated, but there's also all the guilt that she's been internalizing for being "deceptive" and not saying the truth sooner that further complicates things and makes her feel like she's undeserving of any kindness that she may be offered… even though she genuinely was going to tell ena the truth herself, it doesn't matter anymore bc someone else told her before she even got the chance to do so herself and that's something she actually wished would happen in the past, so is there anyone to blame but herself? mizuki's entire thing is that until now she's been "writing" a fictionalized cis girl version of herself when she's with niigo and obscuring her own transness bc she doesn't want to be treated as an Other or have an asterisk attached to her girlhood bc she just wants to be treated as one of them instead of having to explain herself or prove anything but she has her facade violently stripped away from her in the most traumatic way imaginable and now she's entrapped within dysphoria induced suicidal ideation...

[garbage-floof]

mizu5 is genuinely the most soul-crushing event so far. as a trans person i fully understood the fear and anxiety mizuki felt about coming out to her friends, the feeling of knowing that even if they accept you they're not gonna treat you the same in the most subtle ways that they may be doing subconsciously and how much courage it took to at least ask for ena to talk.

also it's not shown but getting outed - while she almost came out herself!! - is devastating at the very least. i cant even begin to describe the feeling of hopelessness and how out of control you feel. all this time, mizuki was in control if niigo knew about her being trans, and that was taken from her the moment she had the courage to come out on her own.

i know this just an event on some game but i hope more people see mizuki's pain and realise that it's happened in real life too, and it'll keep happening. i know that maybe im asking for too much, but i really really hope this event brings more awareness about trans people and all we have to face

“ how is this gonna help me ? ”

✦ pairing : hiromi higuruma x fem!reader

✦ warnings : smut, fem!reader, blowjob {character!r + reader!g}, teasing, pet names, cusses , minors + ageless blogs dni

✦ A/N : dw chat I won’t change the kink!tober schedule >_< ~ {mizu5 broke my heart, it’s mizuover.}

*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.* *.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.* *.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.* *.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.* *.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.* *.·:·.✧ ✦

you’ve been hiromi’s assistant for a while now. about two to three years now. and with him, he obviously gave you hard cases to help him with. not to mention, how attractive he was. you weren’t able to take your eyes off of him, sometimes him catching you staring at him.

you really thought he would care, but he didn’t seemed to mind. in fact, he actually seemed to enjoy it. maybe he does stare at you too in the same, small crush, like way without you noticing.

you weren’t oblivious, not one bit. but when it comes to him you were. people say you’re able to sense when someone’s watching you, but you could never with him. maybe he wasn’t? perhaps you were just being delusional.

to him though?

you weren’t.

you were absolutely correct.

he was taking quick glances at you each chances he would get, and watch you when your senses were at its lowest. he was just observant. he was quickly able to tell when your senses were low and when he was free from some people hovering over him and talking.

in fact, he did have a small crush on you like you do to him. you didn’t know, but he knew. he knew you did, he’s caught you so many times staring at him. he could tell you had a small crush on him. perhaps big? who knew.

but you should be ashamed of the position you’re in right now, under your bosses desk, giving hike the best head he’d ever had. not like he never had it, he had handjobs back in high schools, but never had a blowjob. yet, it felt so relaxing to him, like he’s getting a break from the outside world.

he couldn’t help but let out slight groans and very quiet moans. this guy groaned a lot. he barely ever moaned. I mean, you thought of it. something in your mind just brought up him groaning more than letting out pathetic little moans.

you looks up at him with big, puppy eyes, the most innocent eyes if you were in court and you were supposed to be guilty, the verdict would be absolutely the opposite with the way you’re looking up at him, acting like you’re not sucking him off.

how did you even get into this situation? sucking your boss off, you two weren’t even married, not even dating. yet.

you could see him scribbling stuff on the paper, his hand writing obviously being sloppy and like chicken scratches due to his hand shaking so much from the pleasure.

it was too much for this poor man to handle. it was surprising. he was as hard as a shell to break through to his soft spot. he never let his guard down, his lowest senses was still higher than mosts. yet, he felt comfortable with you enough to let his absolute lowest senses, him relaxing. you were actually able to get to his soft and submissive side.

too much for this man to handle, his eyes were glistening from the pleasure, tears of pleasure. he blinked to dry them, yet all it did was roll down his pink and puffy cheeks.

“fuck..” he mumbles, wiping off his face. you slid his length out of your mouth and giggle softly, “aw.. Mr. Lawyer Man so sub-” before you could even finish your sentence, he gabbed a chunk of your hair and forces your head back down to shut you up.

his cheeks were getting warmer, and the soft pink blush getting bigger due to you trying to tease him. he was a very tease-able guy, especially when he’s finally submissive and not the strict man he usually is.

this poor old man couldn’t help but to scribble on his paper. he wasn’t even writing, he was just scribbling. up, down, left, right, everywhere on a case file. once he let go of your hair, you pulled back.

“isn’t that the case file, hiro??” you softly say, using his nickname just to tease him.

he softly ruffled your hair, then letting out a long sigh. “I.. I don’t even care anymore.” he mumbled out. usually, he was quiet but also a loud guy to prove his point, yet his voice almost seemed muffled with you. maybe you really got into his softest side.

you roll your eyes teasingly, and went back to what you were doing.

“h- how is this gonna help me?..” he mumbled, putting a hand through his soft hair. you thought his hair was spiky at first, but it wasn’t. okay, maybe it slightly was. He did use gel, making his hair hard, yet it was also very soft.

he messingly putting away the papers, knowing of he continues scribbling he and you would get confused, with the messy writing and on the side the little scribbles.

you could tell he was near his limits, his legs twitching every now and then.

and just before you knew it, he did let out a load into your mouth. after all, he’s thirty-six. he’s had handjobs with some girls during a party he was obviously forced to go to. of course, the loads would just be there, untouched whatsoever.

and now, it’s in your mouth. you slurped and lick your tongue all around his tip.

“f- fuck, don’t, don’t..” he warned, yet with his soft whiny voice you didn’t stop until he grabbed your hair and tugged your head back. “never listen, do ya..?” he said, in a slight teasing tone.

you knew what you were getting into, knowing your soft side would be showing now.

[tex-now]

Hey so if mizu5 flops and does NOT eat and fumbles the bag then trans people have a right to be like. Upset over it? Because its been building up for like 3-4 years now and many people see themselves in mizuki and love them, and the canon has also heavily implied that theyre transgender.

I hate it when people whine and complain about small shit but this is not small shit. This is one of the most pivotal moments in nightcord's story, and it's also a very delicate situation due to the way the fandom treats mizuki and their gender. If they blunder this its going to prove that they don't know how to handle trans people in the future and many people will probably be rightfully upset over it and lose trust in colopale.

[emero0]

Ight im analyzing Bake no hana or “flower of transformation” cus its in my brain

Spoilers for mizu5 (obv but heres your warning)

(Lyrics from project sekai wiki)

This is mostly line distribution but feel free to add more

So the first lines are about mizuki (obviously)

Probably about people looking at them weirdly and how they’re used to it — and how they’re cute but its “wrong” its “a sin”

Also this is a music thing but enas lyric “its off” is off beat with the song as well

Then more about mizuki crumbling and breaking sown with their secret because it was revealed before they could reveal it themselves

Next, i find it interesting how every time this lime is sung its by kanade, mafuyu, or both (+kaito)

Which could be in reference to the fact that neither of them were there when everything went down

They also seem to take on more narrator roles like in the beginning

Following this, Ena sings this line every time as well — likely in reference to her not being able to say anything to mizuki and being unable to take back the look on her face when mizuki found her—a face that could be seen aa disgust or “ugly” - “makeup” because its not how ena truly feels

(Which btw—i believe was mainly in part to “oh shit i just found out the secret ive been patiently waiting for before i was told and now i feel awful” and not “oh my god mizuki is trans” or whatever your interpretation of that is considering THEY STILL HAVENT CONFIRMED ANYTHING—which is slightly frustrating but alas we can wait)

Next, either mizuki not wanting to go back because they are tired of running—or even (and im leaning towards this one) they cant go bavk to being a kid, to being “how they were”,

“Blossoming” into this flower, they cant go back and not be trans, theyve bloomed into who they are, even if its “off” and “a sin”

(Im trying not to push trans stuff (NOT /neg) and just look at it as it is but its really hard to see it another way for me /lh —a trans person)

Next, another song thing—when mizuki tells everyone to disappear—they do

No one else sings except kaito, and then when they sing “stay with me” they come back

Then they repeat lines with kaito which could mean something-but it may also just be adding kaito to make it different the second time around because music theory

Nearing the end—this may very well be 1: mizuki not knowing the future and mafuyu-ing into sekai

But it could also be a nod to the player—not knowing the future-and until they do mizuki not showing up in the “real world”

And finally—the curse of being born the way they are, they’ve had enough of running (away from their problems, their mistakes) and have essentially done the game equivalent of —well— disappearing

Overall i really want a full version and i think what we have so far is very interesting—i dont have jpsekai so im probably missing some stuff-but i have seen mizu5 so thats where most of this came from

(Will be avoiding most social media tho cus the arguments over this are—interesting… tumblrs been good so far tho ^^��)
