#so in less formal terms be appropriate and everything will be fine lol!

[aa-spring-swap]

Hello! This sounds very fun, I'd love to participate. I was wondering if you could clarify the content guidelines a little? It says "no child/adult relationship, no incest, etc." and while the first two items are clear, I was wondering exactly what "etc" was supposed to cover? Do you have an exhaustive list in mind of specific topics inappropriate for the event, beyond "no nsfw"? Thank you!

Hello! When I wrote it, I intended for the etc to cover things I’d mentioned in the no NSFW clarification bit and didn’t want to repeat myself by relisting, but now that you point it out, I see how it could have been worded better! The doc has been edited to hopefully read clearer. In the meanwhile, so long as you don’t request anything that falls under the umbrella of the listed inappropriate content, you should be good! A mod will get in contact if there’s ever an issue.

Maou-jou 9 - 12 (FINAL) | Idolish7 s2 10 - 15 (FINAL) | SLS 2

I’ve been holding off new seasonals because of other things, but after I post this I’ll have enough time to get around to them. That’s why I can’t guarantee winter 2021 seasonal tags on this post...maybe the next one will have them...

Maou-jou 9

…it seems shopping channels even are the same in the demon world.

Now even the demons have quests! (The frame is different to the princess’s, though.)

Oh! The quest failed.

Neo Alraune: in flower language, “the 2nd coming of happiness”. The worry from a little while ago was, “I’m worried about my brother.” The worry from recently: “I didn’t think about being happy that the princess didn’t kill my brother.”

The penguin demons are pretty cute!

Don’t you know how parents forbid children from sleeping until they finish all their homework? Must be something like that.

Yoku ganbarimashita! – Syalis worked hard!

LOL, mental age: 3. Poseidon likes cute things…I can’t read a lot of this…the hardsubs cover the JPN text.

They…both succeeded! (…LOL?)

Maou-jou 10

Owarinocity = Endopolis. It’s a good equivalent, if I do say so myself.

…oh yeah. What happened to Alraune? Update: There she is!

Also, that blonde guy in the infomercials doesn’t look too bad…*makes chef’s kiss gesture with one hand* Nice.

I wonder, was Twilight once human…?

LOL, there’s a goat symbol on the cleric’s pyjamas. Also “first time”, LOL.

I think they were playing shiritori at one point.

Hanamaru saikou yoku dekimashita!

Maou-jou 11

…How does one “sleep cheerfully”, anyway?

I think I saw Twilight drop something…some kind of paper…

Aw, Twilight blushing is kinda cute!

LOL, 70s shoujo style. Also, “It cannot be!”

Whoa, she cancelled it?!

I read up on this series on TV Tropes…and apparently the Demon King captured the Princess in her sleep.

Kagemusha? Like a ninja or something?

Apparently the Demon Cleric is much older than he looks.

Ooh! Hypnos is back!

A-whatsit really is abysmal levels of stupid!!! (LOL)

Maou-jou 12 (FINAL)

Who’s that one tiny guy occupying one of the Ten Kings’ seats?

*watching after Christmas, about a week after the anime finished* This is not seasonally appropriate!

…*thinks for a second, then spits* That’s the 2nd Nemu in the fall 2020 season!!!

Ooh, the head paladin doesn’t look that bad, either.

“…is it good to be…”

“…has seized the princess!”

“…that demon king is rather cute.” – See? Someone agrees with me.

Anyways, that was a fun series. See you soon!

Idolish7 s2 10

…Back at it after so long…(I can’t help it though – Crunchyroll, per month, is about double the local Funimation sublicensor’s fees, and for much less content that’s worth my money to boot!)

I’ve always thought Momo was like Sasara (HypMic), so seeing him anguished hurts me in the kokoro too…

I know Banri was involved with Re:vale somehow…this must be it.

…Male idols are also popular among men? Is this why there are 8 (!!!) idol anime in winter 2021 alone…? (Also, that’s why HypMic became popular? Multidemographic appeal crossed over with obvious merchandising opportunities?)

It’s kind of scary how Momo stepped the formality towards Yuki like that (to -san).

I guess in his heart Momo still reveres Yuki, some way or another.

The rakugo curtain really sold the moment that they (current Re:vale) were acting like an old married couple.

Yay! Silver Sky is such a cool song! Of course I recognised the intro when it came on.

…I see. The elder Kujo is entrusting his dream to Tenn, so that’s why he banned Aya from seeing Tamaki. However, it’s hard to know what to feel when Aya speaks in the vaguest terms possible.

I think that was a special ending for only this episode. I don’t know what its name is, but I guess I might recognise it on Spotify one day.

Idolish7 s2 11

LOL, Nagi’s reaction.

Considering the ‘rona is getting worse outside our very windows as we speak (type?), I think it’s correct to be concerned about your future right now.

Looking at these narrow streets reminds me of going to eat hotpot at the end of my Japan trip…only Japanese streets look like that, I think. Hong Kong’s streets are more crowded than that and America likes their suburbia.

Of course, when you say hajimemashite (nice to meet you), someone’s gotta say it back, hence the reply.

Considering there are people all over the world watching the Idolish7 anime, I would say you are telling the world about I7, Riku.

Oh! Restart Pointer! There was an MV for that one…I think it was around the time Idolish7’s MVs started getting better.

So this is the context around the new outfits! Cool!

There have been way too many puns about “idol” being…y’know, “ai (love) doll” and stuff like that…

I have one Twitter person who I follow (DejiNyucu, part of the creative team for Autumn’s Journey) because I don’t get much I7 content and they keep mentioning this “Haruki” person…and suddenly a “Haruki the Betrayer” showed up in the graffiti…they might be the same person, I think. Not Deji, but Haruki. Update: Sakura Haruki, perhaps…?

Sougo’s such a bad liar…

Sometimes, the best way to deal with things is to be direct…(I’m not very good at that, I naturally talk in a very roundabout sort of way.)

Sougo with long hair like Yuki would be really pretty… (<- has an obvious thing for guys with long hair)

Idolish7 s2 12

Nagi’s stupid accent is generally what he’s best remembered for (for me), so seeing him speak normally, and do a press conference on top of that, is…impressive.

A kabedon on top of all this! Whoa!

Shibuya 109 parody…? (I’ve seen that once or twice – parodying that means people know their stuff about Shibuya.)

I think the “it’s overflowing!” is referring to the hype in the “room”.

…this dejected Momo is worrying…(well, he is worrying and I am worrying about him.)

Oh, I see. The person responsible typed the letter so that they couldn’t be traced back. Kind of like those old movies where the culprit would cut letters out of newspapers to make threat mail, but…with even less traces than that, because cutting letters out leaves evidence.

…wow, it took a while for this ep. to have an intro…

…LOL, I just spotted Kenjiro Tsuda cited as the “fake Zero”, meaning the real one might never show up this season.

There’s something really stupid and infectious about these managers’ enthusiasm for drinking energy drinks. It puts a goofy smile on my face.

Is Musubi Tsumugi’s mother…? Update: Yes, she is.

…Wait, so the Chiba Shizuo guy is actually important?!

Idolish7 s2 13

Whenever someone says “by the way”, it means they’re changing the subject. I hate to state to obvious, but Sougo is clearly deflecting the topic of conversation from being about him.

I wonder if this guy (Haw9) is the actual Zero graffiti vandal…?

Hmph, I didn’t realise Tenn doesn’t refer to Kujo-san as his father, but…like that (“Kujo-san”) instead.

Oh hey! These are shots from Vibrato!

Most dramas can be solved with the power of Good Communication. That includes this one.

I feel like “he has a dark side” describes both Tenn and Kujo-san.

“Everyone, remember to wash your hands and gargle thoroughly.” – This is always a good thing to remember in the time of ‘rona. Reminds me of Jakurai’s line in ARB (<- this game started just after the ‘rona came down).

What did Sougo go to uni for (what specialisation)?

Idolish7 s2 14

I just realised Banri calls Momo -kun. Hmm…

Denki = electricity, LOL.

I feel like Tenn is basically Ramuda, give or take actual pink hair…guys in musical groups with pre-existing angst that they become the “centre” of. The fact Fling Posse have Saito Soma and so do Trigger strengthens the connection.

I would watch the heck out of a musical like that! Make it come true, Idolish7! (Also, today is I7 day! I’m not much of an I7 fan outside the anime, but…that’s cool!)

That shot of them jumping! I remember seeing it on the official site before!

Idolish7 s2 15 (FINAL)

There you go! I was wondering where Banri’s injury was – that was the only bit that didn’t add up for him to be Yuki’s old partner.

Hmm…Momo is 4 years younger than Yuki but 2 years younger than Banri…

This episode has a real concert vibe to it, to the point where I got startled by how loud the yell was at one point. (Even if it is mostly stills.)

LOL, lookit Okazaki!

Apparently, if you’re a hako oshi, you like all the members of a group. Someone with a green light and a pink light likes both members of Re:vale.

LOL, Usagi for Asahi beer.

…I forgot Nagi is 19.

…Ooh, I think that’s the kid from ZOOL. No wonder they needed a season 3!

That’s all. See you next time!

SLS 2

“fine and upstanding person” – That’s…hard to believe, Hayato.

I wonder how many bois Toboso designed for SLS…?

…The episode title is actually “Blank”. Not “Break”.

One of the guys’ shirts says moteki on it. That’s a period in one’s life where one enjoys more romantic attention than usual, literally “popularity season”.

The subs missed an I, so initially I knew Kiriyama’s name as “Kiryama”.

There are meant to be 2 wings, right…?

“He who controls information controls everything, right?” – For once, I’m surprised Hayato is right (and not just in that smug way of his).

“…I’m being treated like a manager.” – But Hayato is a manager! (In a sense.)

The plait guy jumps to nicknames really fast…also, why do I get the feeling Maeshima will lose the key?

I hate to say this Maeshima, but I side with your childhood friend (Kiriyama) here. As much as the anime wants me to back you, I’m watching for everyone else at this point.

That blocky building looks pretty cool. I think Zel (Archi-Anime) would like it.

Sasugai’s setup looks pretty cool, including his chair.

…hmm, Maeshima’s like me in a sense. I learn best by copying others, but memory is my best asset. If I don’t regularly train the fundamentals, I suck at everything. That said, I don’t have an eidetic memory. Also, I didn’t quite figure out Ken = Ken(sei Maeshima) until I watched long enough to connect the dots.

LOL, Derry’s. (<- reminded of a word for “butt” <- derriere)

Well, the guy’s (Souta…?) shirt does say moteki…

Kiriyama kinda looks like Jyuto (HypMic), come to think of it…Right down to his angry streak (although Jyuto has a reputation to keep as a “cool dude”, while Kiriyama is more of a Manza (Boueibu HK) and he’s more angry than he looks).

…This ED is nothing special.

…Hmm? Is that a small Terauchi and Maeshima…?

I think I’m sold for now, but I’m rooting for the other team, not Maeshima’s…not yet, anyways.

[wisteriafield]

All of them

IF YOU ASK…

Also I almost completed this but then shit happened and I had to do EVERYTHING all over again so shit’s fucked.

1: Do you have a crush at the moment?

On my girlfriend lol.

2: Have you ever been deeply in love?

I’m deeply in love with my gf!

When I was younger, it was more like extreme infatuation.

3: Longest relationship you’ve ever been in?

Current one with my girlfriend!

4: Have you ever changed for someone?

Yep! For the better. It was as much for myself as it was for my girlfriend.

5: How is your relationship with your ex?

I’ve only been in a relationship with one person.

6: Have you ever been cheated on?

Nope!

7: Have you ever cheated?

Also nope!

8: Would you date someone who’s well known for cheating?

Depends on how much I know them, but I probably could just go in with low expectations.

9: What’s the most important part of a relationship?

Feeling comfortable with each other and a good foundation of communication.

10: Do you like to be in serious relationships or just flings?

I like to be in serious relationships, yeah!

11: When you are dating someone do you believe in going on “breaks”?

It happens.

12: How many people have you ever hooked up with?

Just my current girlfriend!

13: What’s one thing you regret saying/doing in a previous relationship?

When I speak without thinking too much about what I’m saying and it upsets my girlfriend.

14: What age do you think is appropriate for kids to start having sex?

If sex ed was actually a thing here in America, it’d be fine because there’d probably be less mystique surrounding it and using it as a rite of passage. It’d probably be done more safely. Otherwise I’d say around the 20s is a safe number.

15: Do you believe in the phrase “age is just a number”?

If you mean, “You can still find love no matter how old you are,” then yes!

If you mean, “I, a 30 year old, should not feel ashamed for wanting to be in a relationship with this 18 year old,” or something like that, then no.

They’re very different things, I assure you.

16: Do you believe in “love at first sight”?

You know, I don’t know how I feel about this myself.

17: Do you believe it’s possible to fall in love on the internet?

sweats

But in all seriousness, yes.

18: What do you consider a deal breaker?

If you take interest in me but belittle all of my interests. If you don’t play video games. If me being Asian is particularly important to you. And lastly, if you belittle the LGBT movement. If you have criticisms, that’s one thing that’s valid, but to put it down entirely is something else.

19: How do you know it’s time to end a relationship?

If I woke up feeling nervous about how talking to them would be like, I think that’s a good indicator.

I’ve never felt it before, but I think that’s how I would start feeling.

20: Are you currently in a relationship?

Yep!

21: Do you think people who have dated can stay friends?

Yeah.

22: Do you think people should date their friends?

Depends largely on the two individuals in question more than it does for any other question. 

23: How many relationships have you had?

Just this one.

24: Do you think love can last forever?

Yeah!

25: Do you believe love can conquer all things?

As naive as it sounds, yes! Love, by itself, isn’t the all-conqueror, but it can be the main force.

26: Would you break up with someone your parents didn’t approve of?

No.

27: If you could go back in time and give yourself one piece of advice about dating what would it be?

It’s alright if you haven’t dated anyone by the time you graduate high school. You aren’t mature enough to be in one anyways.

28: Do you think long distance relationships can work?

It can be tough, but I think so.

29: What do you notice first about another person?

If online, their speech patterns. Otherwise, their face, as generic of a response as that sounds.

30: Are you straight, bi, gay or pansexual?

Pan!

31: Would it bother you if your partner suffered from any mental illness?

Only if I don’t know how to respond to it, which would be my own fault.

32: Have you ever been in an abusive relationship?

Not a romantic one, but yes, both emotionally and mentally.

33: Do you want to get married one day?

Yeah!

34: What do you think about getting your partner’s name tattooed?

I don’t think I could get a tattoo in general orz

35: Could you be in a relationship without sex?

Hell no lol. I can only masturbate so much, toys or no toys.

36: Are you still a virgin?

Physically, sure.

37: What’s more important: Looks or personality?

Personality. Looks matter a bit, but if I’m favored to their personality then I will find them more beautiful no matter what standard of beauty they are subjected to.

38: Do you enjoy love films?

Generally, I think so.

39: Have you ever given anyone/received roses?

Nope.

40: Have you ever had a valentine?

I might have, I don’t think it ended well though.

41: What’s your imagination of a “perfect date”?

Eating together, cuddling, watching each other play video games or playing together.

42: Have you ever read “Romeo & Juliet”?

Yeah. I even got to watch the masterpiece that is the modernized adaptation “Romeo + Juliet”

43: What’s more important: Your partner or your friends?

Hopefully my partner is among my friends, but if my partner made me choose, I’d say my friends, and my partner if my friends made me choose.

44: Would you consider yourself “romantic”?

Yeah, I used to consider myself a hopeless romantic, but now I’m just a romantic slut lol.

45: Could you imagine to date one of your current friends?

lol

46: Have you ever been “friendzoned”?

I thought I was, turns out I was just being creepy.

I didn’t get to amend it, but to be fair I didn’t really deserve to anyways.

47: Which “famous couple” is your favorite?

Uhh…

48: What’s your favorite love song?

Hmm…

Hmm…….

Oh! Here we go! [x]

49: Have you ever broken someone’s heart?

Probably, yeah.

50: If you’re single, why do you think you are?

51: Would you rather date someone who’s rich but a douchebag or someone who’s poor but a nice guy?

I can’t stand someone who’s insufferable towards others even if he was nice to me.

52: Are you good at giving other people advices regarding dating/ relationships?

I think I’m the last person that should be giving relationship advice tbh.

53: Are you jealous of couples when you’re single?

Yeah.

54: How important is it to make a relationship official (p.e. on facebook)?

Formality doesn’t really matter to me too much, but I like saying how much I love my girlfriend if she’s comfortable with it.

55: Would you consider yourself “clingy”, “overly attached” or “jealous”?

No. I enjoy my girlfriend’s presence a lot, and want to spend much time with her, but not so much that I’m watching who she spends time with and want her all to myself.

56: Have you ever “destroyed” a relationship?

No.

57: Do you think it’s silly to consider suicide because of a broken heart?

Not silly, manipulative.

58: Are you the “dominant” or the “submissive” part in a relationship?

Submissive.

59: Have you ever forgotten important dates like your partner’s birthday or your anniversary?

Not yet, better stay that way.

60: What’s your opinion on open relationships?

I know someone who was in one. It’s complicated stuff. But I won’t judge any part of it.

61: Who’s more important: Your partner or your family?

My partner. The circumstances of my identity make it difficult for me to value my family over them, as much as I love my family.

62: How do you define “cheating”?

Betraying your partner’s trust. I feel like that’s all that needs to be said.

63: Is watching porn while being in a relationship inappropriate?

Depends on the terms of the relationship that should be set before this kind of thing occurs. For me, I don’t care, if it gives them new ideas that’s neat.

64: Do you think Valentine’s Day is overrated?

Nah, I’m okay with PDA and find it cute (I’m allowed to find it cute and be jealous of it too if I’m single)

Personally, I find American chocolate has too much bitterness or too much sweetness and not a good balance, but chocolate is good in general.

65: Would you consider yourself a “cuddler”?

YES
