#stan buster bros.

[broadwaybalogna]

Is it bad to say I chuckled?

I let out a small teehee

A little pfft

A tiny “heh” if you will.

Because like, you can’t genuinely say this and villainize REAL PEOPLE for having opinions about a tv show that was made in 2005. Like, there’s no way. This has to be satire.

And like I’m laughing to myself but BRO- “oh no every once in a while someone says that Aang did something wrong and needed to be held accountable grr! They are literally villains!!! Of course two white men in 2005 knew exactly what they were doing when making a TV show reflecting war, gen0c1d3, and female struggles! These REAL PEOPLE are the problem and are literally the villains of the 21st century”

Ok yeah that last part was a little bit of a hyperbole but like- THAT WAS LITERALLY THE GIST OF IT

you cannot blame me for laughing at the utter unseriousness of this

And then dropped these people’s full blog names as if it’s not just a way to make Kat/ang and a/ng stans continuously bully and send hate to them.

Yeah, okay buster

*cue all because I liked a boy by Sabrina Carpenter but instead of “all because I liked a boy” it’s “all because I liked a ship”*

And no, don’t say “it’s not all because you liked a ship it’s-“ no, it’s literally because we like a ship. Get a grip, and a life while you’re at it.

Edit: I scrolled through this persons account a little and all their posts just shit on Zutara shippers. What a little weirdo. What a little goober. What a tiny lil goofball. And then you DONT expect people to get pissy with you? I mean I know I said to find a life earlier but like- damn bro, if you need some assistance in life I’m here to help, no need to be a hater 24/7

[mcbbpastelaesthetic]

What do you think?

[justanotherniky]

hypnosis mic as stray kids songs ☆

Well, yes, because it was necessary, and the brain worms are worming. Stray Kids have something for everyone, HypMic included~

for Buster Bros!!!: 3RACHA

or pretty much any 3Racha song, to be honest. I've said it before and I'll say it again: 3Racha are so Buster Bros coded it's insane. Responsible father figure eldest brother, gym bro middle child, neurodivergent genius little brother??? Hello??? @/3racha do a cosplay some day please

for MAD TRIGGER CREW: FREEZE

mostly for the vibes!!! MTC was probably the hardest one to come up with because I'm always at a loss at what actually fits them best outside of,,, jazzy mafia dudes. The brain worms also proposed Muddy Water and maybe Victory Song?

for Fling Posse: Airplane

and they were definitely the easiest ones. Actually the ones that jumpstarted this entire post today. Airplane just has Fling Posse vibes. Honourable mention to CHILL as well, and to be honest to most of the MAXIDENT album, because it just screams Fling Posse all over the place.

for Matenro: Silent Cry

ah, Matenro. The bane of my existence. (jk I love them) Just. Honestly. All of SKZ's sad songs. I hereby dedicate Alien, VOLCANO, Phobia, and so much more to my favourite angsty bois. (yes I'm a Han Jisung stan, couldn't you tell?)

for Bad Ass Temple: Thunderous

OBVIOUSLY. Nothing but the best for my kings. Kuko would slay Changbin's part and that is final!!!

for Dotsuitare Honpo: CIRCUS

my clown bois. My silly dudes. They're my everything and they get a special silly masterpiece. I also considered CHEESE, simply because the whole "laugh in your haters' face" seems like a very Sasara thing to do.

And that's it for today. Do give my boys SKZ a listen if you don't know them already because they deserve the world and also they're the silliest most talented most adorable human beings ever. 3RACHA AS BUSTER BROS FOR THE WIN

[hebimoonlightwrites]

Yeah, it was a long journey to turn myself into a BAT stan bc I started being a Matenro stan and also liked Buster Bros, but it was inevitable, I even used one of my ocs and I couldn't decide between Kuko and Ichiro bc I love them both, so she ended up with the two of them, good luck for her(she has the same height as Ramuda, lol)

━┳━　━┳━

Also, I just wasted 5.000 gems and a 10 pull ticket, it was for the best... F but I still have 11,520 ━┳━　━┳━

Ohh! I see! Well, you have good tastes for real! Lol! XD

I started being fling posse but then I turned to be BAT because of Hitoya’s, Kuko’s and Jyushi’s backgrounds stories! Like.. they were so adorable! Plus they’re literally the only team I love each song of xD..

Joan Crawford in The Hollywood Revue of 1929 (Charles Reisner, 1929)

Cast: Conrad Nagel, Jack Benny, Norma Shearer, John Gilbert, Joan Crawford, Bessie Love, Cliff Edwards, Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, Anita Page, Nils Asther, Marion Davies, William Haines, Marie Dressler, Charles King, Buster Keaton. Screenplay: Al Boasberg, Robert E. Hopkins. Cinematography: John Arnold, Max Fabian, Irving G. Ries. Art direction: Erté. Film editing: William S. Gray, Cameron K. Wood. Music: Arthur Lange. 

Designed to show off the novelty of sound and, in two sequences, the coming novelty of Technicolor, The Hollywood Revue of 1929 was enthusiastically received by critics and audiences, though it lost the best picture Oscar to The Broadway Melody (Harry Beaumont, 1929). Today, both movies are creaky antiques, despite the effort that MGM put into producing them. In fact, The Hollywood Revue often seems like an attempt to promote The Broadway Melody, which had opened three and a half months earlier, since it gives prominent spots to that film's stars, Charles King, Bessie Love, and Anita Page. The rest of it feels a lot like amateur night at MGM, as the studio's stars are trotted out for songs and skits that often feel tired and incoherent. In a few years, MGM would be boasting that it had more stars than there are in Heaven, but many of the stars showcased in the Revue are forgotten today -- like King, Love, and Page -- or were on the wane -- like John Gilbert, Marion Davies, and Buster Keaton. The ones that remained stars, like Jack Benny and Joan Crawford, did so by reinventing themselves. The Revue, which modeled itself on theatrical conventions like the minstrel show and vaudeville, both of which were on the outs, failed to break ground for the Hollywood musical. It would take a few years for Warner Bros. to do that, with 42nd Street (Lloyd Bacon, 1933) and the unfettered imagination of Busby Berkeley taking the backstage musical formula of The Broadway Melody and some of Sammy Lee's choreographic tricks from the Revue -- including overhead kaleidoscope shots -- and improving on them. The Revue has a few highlights even today: Joan Crawford trying a little too hard to sparkle as she sings (passably) and dances (clunkily); Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy in their first sound film, doing a magic act with Jack Benny's intervention; Cliff Edwards and the Brox Sisters doing "Singin' in the Rain," which gets a Technicolor reprise with most of the company at the film's end; Keaton acrobatically clowning his way (silently) through an "underwater" drag routine; and Norma Shearer and John Gilbert in Technicolor performing a bit of the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet, first as Shakespeare wrote it and then in 1929's slang. To get to them, however, you have to sit through a lot of dud routines and dated songs like Charles King's paean to maternity, "Your Mother and Mine," which must have been aimed right at the mushy heart of that ardent defender of motherhood, Louis B. Mayer.

Norma Shearer and John Gilbert

[lochness-art]

the way I've been stanning fling posse and buster bros for months and only just now listened to the 2nd drb drama tracks and songs 😶

[jupiterscythe]

I love having a ps1 again so fucking much. Being able to take a break from drawing/model kits/stencil cutting/etc by playing Smackdown 2, Ridge Racer Type 4, and the Buster Bros Collection makes me feel like a kid again. As much as I stan the Dreamcast and Gamecube, N64 and ps1 will always be the nearest and dearest to me. The N64 was the first system we had as a family, but my older brother would hog it hardcore. Then, for my birthday in 2nd grade, my parents got me my very own ps1 with Smackdown. Thw following days were spent playing dream matches, and it's rhe console that solidified my love of RPGs

[akkivee]

the questions are the same yet the answers are a smidge different lol but here’s this: the squeakquel lmao

HYPMIC 6TH ANNIVERSARY QUESTIONS

How and when did you get into HypMic?— in 2018!!! i say my anniversary is the same as the release of death respect because that album was my first ever hypmic purchase lol. as for how, ichiro’s face is very cute lol 😊

What originally attracted you to HypMic?— i’m a little surprised actually that ichiro’s face did draw me in at first, but with the most formative series i’ve ever gotten into, i was attracted to it because the lead character looked adorable so time is a flat fcking circle LOL. the music sealed the deal tho lol

How does HypMic compare to the media you're usually into?— hypmic tells a lot of story thru bangers and the other series i tend to get embarrassing brainrot from also have had character songs that expressed their world views thru bangers so i am pretty consistent at that front. tho hypmic being considered amongst the ranks of enstars etc is a departure from my usual types of media (i don’t particularly care for otome games/media lol)

First impressions of the characters? Who stuck out the most?—i don’t have strong feelings on anything i’m not into, so save for finding ichiro cute, i didn’t have very strong first impressions of anyone lol. the music changed that tho, like mtr brainrot largely happened because jakurai and hifumi’s verses in drb and dba hit lol

Who was the first character you liked?— buster bros’s big bro yamada ichiro❤️

Who have you grown to like that you didn't think you would before?— the bb stan in me may have resisted liking mtc and and the ichijiku simp in me may have also resisted rei for a hot minute lol but man look at me now LOL

Which was the first Division you liked?— busters bros!!!

How have your favorites changed?— bad ass temple has and continues to ruin my life!!! 💜💜💜

What was the first song you listened to?— dba!!!!

What's your favorite solo song?— hhhhhhhh i think i’m at the point i can say it’s if i follow my heart. which is nuts i can’t believe something overthrew break the wall lmao

What's your favorite group song?— p-probably still kaigen??

What's your favorite stage song?— battle of pride cannot be topped lol however i do hold a lot of fondness for shout out to the revolution and stage kuukou’s newest solo 😫👌

What's your favorite bonus song?— probably double trouble or murder in the house of magic

What's your favorite Division All Stars song?— uhhhhh summit of divisions i think!!!

Which is your favorite album?— nagosaka’s albums with their second solos tbh lmao like imagine releasing six absolute bangers at once like that lol

Which songs do you think are slept on?— i may still not interact with the fandom enough to really know what’s not popular, but rei in general is slept on so i bet his solos are also slept on and that’s a tragedy lol

Do your favorite songs come from your favorite Division?— YEAH BAT ONLY PUTS OUT BANGERS

Which composers for HypMic do you listen to?— the list is long tbh lol some i listened to before hypmic got to them, some i listen to because of hypmic lol

Which composers do you want to see for HypMic?— sambomaster for bat but bat can’t keep getting these naruto artists tbh lmao

If you had to get someone into HypMic with one song, what would it be?— tf if i know lmao ig moonlight shadow or if i follow my heart

Do you play ARB? Drop your friend code for people reading!—mqg6whmif4zp 👹✌️

What events are you hoping to see? What character combos do you hope will show up together?— turns out last year i asked for kuukou samatoki and juto to be in an event and i got it nearly a year later LOL. i think arb should keep indulging me and give me a hitoya samatoki and juto event next lmao

Are you into any ships?— ichikuu is love ichikuu is life lmao. but i am a multishipper in general, even if i’m not the most fond of the more popular hypmic ships lol

Do you have a yume/self-ships? Platonic or romantic.— i say i’m not but if you catch me slippin, no you don’t 💜

What characters would you get along with?— my go to for this answer is ichiro or jakurai and i do think that holds true!!! but let’s switch it up this time and say rosho or jyushi this time lol

Do you kin? No shame! Why are the characters relatable to you?— lmao no i do not

Do you have any HypMic merch? Show us the collection!— i like mochis so i tend to buy mochis when they’re released lol. i have all the sweets paradise mochi (except for the second round of the og divisions), and all the mochi up to ew03!!!! i’m waiting for my ew04 mochi still lol. but i do have a handful of other merch too lol

What weird HypMic merch do you want to wish into existence?—hypmic kigurumi where it’s their outfit as the body and their face on the hood except it looks dank like the hypmic face masks

What's a HypMic collab/crossover that you hope to see in the future?— ddb members got to dance with hatsune miku so in a way i got my hypmic x vocaloid collab lmao. so next up i say when ryme from pkmn sv is introduced in the anime, they celebrate with a bat collab LOL

What friendships/relationships are you most interested in?—i really want to know how rei and nayuta’s relationship started and was up until she was attacked. lol like they had to have been a disgustingly in love couple right???? (pls have been a disgustingly in love couple lol) and i will always eat nb/mcd crumbs up like dice at a buffet lmao

What characters get slept on? Who deserves more love?— if they’re in the old man division, they’re slept on lmao. i also think we should care more about rio lol

About your favorite character - why do you love them?— i like that i don’t find kuukou very relatable actually lol. he’s very different from me and it’s aspirational in that sense. other than that, he’s the sun and the sun is a very important part of the the ecosystem that keeps life on earth—

Drop a headcanon for your favorite character.—kuukou’s nipples and belly button are pierced 💜

Who's your favorite side character?— i don’t think nemu is a side character anymore lol. ren and unami are still my canon ocs lmao but other than that……… hmmm shakku-san!!!!!

About your favorite Division - why do you love them?— they’re fun!!!!!!!! they have great music!!!!!! ik fandom likes to treat hitoya as the dad (like to the point people forget shakku and jyushi’s parents are in their lives lol) but it’s a very equal relationship, one where they keep each other growing!!!!!! the best kind of found family!!!!!!!!

Drop a headcanon for your favorite Division.— this was intended to be a canon au lol, but it’s cute so i just pretend it’s real lol. but kuukou is an og argo kushiiiiiiii orchestra stan LOL. he saw a fancam of their first ever live house performance and was an instant fan lol. he learned hitoya knew the lead singer when said lead singer happened to take a selfie and hitoya was kinda (his pompadour lmao) in frame and kuukou promptly blew up his phone about it so hitoya knows kuukou’s a fan. but then kuukou played it cool in front of jyushi when they met for the first time at the temple and hitoya’s patiently waiting for the opportunity to embarrass tf out kuukou about it LMAO

If we ever get more Divisions, what characters would you like to see? What would you like to see represented?—if we get new characters, it better be because it’s a 2nd generation tbh. i actually kinda wanna see hypmic take it out of japan tho and make divisions based in other countries like china and south korea!!!!! the world of hypmic implies hypnosis mics exist outside of japan so i think it’d be cool to see hypnosis mic: china or something like that lol

Do you follow any of the seiyuu outside of HypMic?— i still cyberstalk hayama-san lol and i do keep up with whatever bat seiyuu does in general, as well as iwasaki-san!!!! btw!!!!! hayama-san is going to be in an anime called kawagoe boys sing coming out the same season as rhyme anima➕, sakakihara-san’s dead mount death play is returning as well and iwasaki-san is co-starring in an anime called the four yuzuki brothers, and takeuchi-san has landed a regular gig with cookpad where he’ll be cooking meals every month starting later this month so pls do support them LOL

Did you pay attention during the livestreams/radio shows? Have you learned anything about (J)hiphop culture?—it’s been very fun and educational sitting in on dj uichi’s dj lessons lol like i feel like i could use his dj equipment with how thorough he’s been lol

Which of your fanworks are you most proud of?— hmmm my kuukou week pieces came out pretty well i think!!!! i set my dragon one as my wallpaper lol. and i’m very fond of my birthday comic for hitoya from like uhhhhhhh twooooooooo years ago i wanna say????? it set my precedence for for hitoya and kuukou picking on each other in my art lol

Which media do you prefer - ARB, the manga, stage play etc.?—canon (drama tracks/manga)!!!!! tho the writing wishes it was as intense as the stage lol for the most part i do prefer the stage in that regard

What moment in the HypMic series made you feel the most emotional?—in canon, that would be the if we rust etc drama track and the nb/mcd breakup lol. outside of canon i still can’t believe i celebrated bat’s third anniversary in nagoya with that incredibly special 8th live and the stage ending has done some irreparable damage to my heart tbh

Have you ever made any theories? Did any of them come true?— i didn’t know it until i happened to go back on my blog a bit ago but i actually correctly guessed rei was trying to bring his wife back waaaaaay back in 2021 based on his speakers lol. most of my rei theories were on point so who knows what else i guessed correctly but just forgot i did lol

What plot points do you hope to be explored more in the future?— imma be level with kr. just tell me if kuukou is only meant to exist a cutie who spits occasional wisdom and fcks people up when the opportunity gives him reason to lol. like that’s fine if so, i’m having fun with just that lol!!!!!!!!! but like. i’m. a little weary waiting for his additional depth by this point without the promise he will get it lol like can you believe bat has no chuuoku stakes three years into their existence. besides that, i would like to know if ichiro’s ability really does need others to keep him steady as he uses it!!!! because if so i might be able to draw some parallels with ichiro and the true hypnosis mic lol

Who do you enjoy this series with? Gush about your friends!—anybody who has interacted with me— be it asks, dms, replies the like— do know i appreciate you very much and will kill for you 🙂

Who are you hoping will win the 3rd DRB? Does it matter to you?— FCK THE 3RD DRB ALL MY HOMIES HATE THE DRBS LMAO

How do you hope the series meets its conclusion?— i’m partial to the conclusion playing out like it does in rhyme anima and track 4 where the leaders went on their own to face the big bad and then the 2/3gumi showed up and reminded them exactly why they need each other lol. i was hoping for a power vacuum situation where the government was overthrown by the cast and we’re left with a bad end kinda feel to a cliffhanger that opened room for a 2nd gen that kinda resents the 1st gen a little lol but somehow!!!!! i got my power vacuum because rei kinda single-handedly took down the government!!!!! idk what to expect now lol!!!!!!

What does HypMic mean to you?— a fandom home 😌

Why should someone get into HypMic?— don’t ahaha🌟 to discover something new!!!!! be it a twist on genre of music you already like or as a gateway to a new genre of music to like!!!!!!! the characters are fun and the setting they’re in makes them even more fun!!!!!!! it’s just a fun time lol

Leave a message for your future self - remind yourself why you love HypMic.—*ichiro voice* rap is tano-C!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *me 10 years in the future* AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW— 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

i did something similar last year but who cares about rehashing answers ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

1) i actually posted about it lol but i say my hypmic anniversary is when death respect came out!!! i got into around that time when a third jp merch site i used to shop at had a listing for bbmtc patches and yamada ichiro’s patch was the cutest thing i had ever seen lmao

2) besides ichiro’s face lol i listened to dba and was sold

3) hm!! i think it tracks with other stuff i obsess with!!! there’s characters with depth, finding bonds with each other/being found family, with a healthy dose of action!!!! the fact it’s told thru music is a plus; the fandoms i hung around longest in the past utilised character songs to supplement their character and i lost my mind then much similarly to the way i do now lol

4) i didn’t have a negative opinion on anybody the moment they appeared actually!!!! (except for rei lol but that was because he was disrespecting ichijiku and not for his crimes as a deadbeat dad lol) obvs the ones who stood out were ichiro, then jakurai, and then kuukou lol

5) ichiro!!!! ❤️

6) mtc and rei actually!!!! like mtc was my least favourite division when it was just the og divisions!!!! ‘somebody gotta do it’ and ‘don’t play no game that i can’t win’ dropped and that’s when my opinion of them changed but i’m not sure when i became significantly less normal about them lol 🤔 as for rei, i had a negative opinion from the get go and being bb’s father certainly didn’t help, but then i used my brain and embraced his mystery and his clowniness lol

7) buster bros in the house still number one☝️

8) i went from being a natural ichiro enjoyer, to a ‘not so normal’ jakurai liker, to a ‘i need him to breathe’ kuukou stan lol

9) dba!!!! and like a loser too lol i really did mean to listen to all the songs in order 💀

10) fav solo is break the wall but we’ll see how i’m feeling after year with nagosaka’s new solos hitoya and sasara’s are some real contenders lol

11) kaigen 😭😭😭😭😭😭

12) BATTLE OF PRIDE IS SO GOOD YALL

13) i’m assuming this is manga release songs and i really like rip, double trouble and murder in the house of magic lol

14) a toss up between hoodstar➕ and summit of divisions lol

15) are there any really lol???? i don’t interact with the fandom enough to know if there are songs that are universally considered mid or worse lol lemme know if there are

16) BAD ASS TEMPLE ONLY KNOWS HOW TO PUT OUT BANGER AFTER BANGER LOL

17) ichiro dice and sasara!!!!!!

18) honestly the better question is who don’t i listen to lol. i try to listen to the composers works when their collaborations are announced!!

19) i have been praying for queen bee/avu-chan to write something for kuukou, and i hope that when if we get solos for the ladies, goddess artist eill writes for honobono because i’m ready for this godawful woman to have the best j-hiphop song in this franchise LOL

20) i can’t remember if it was batfs or moonlight shadow that i was on the screen while my mom was home but she thought it was a jam so probably a bat song tbh

21) i have demoted myself to arb enjoyer from a distance lol 😭😭😭

22) shit arb’s been keeping me satisfied like all hell lmao!!!!! arb should give me an event with samatoki kuukou and juto tho lmao but oooooooh what if we got events with the mixed up divisions??? that’d be dope 😲

23) HAHA yeah i’m a huge multishipper. there are very few ships i don’t like, and my shipping bicycles have been both jakurai and samatoki, but you can easily flay me alive with ichikuu and riodice crumbs and i’ll break down thank you lmao

24) i’m not a self insert kinda person lol

25) since i’m introverted i’d probably get along best with someone like ichiro or jakurai. i can only love kuukou from a far i don’t think i could handle him lmao

26) no i’m not a kinnie lmao but i’m probably like a mashup between ramuda and jyushi with a dash of jakurai’s general dilf dad friend attitude, what ever that monstrosity would look like as a character lmao

27) *drowning in hypmic merch* i have some :) lol and I REALLY WANTED THAT BAT TOTE BAG I WISH I KNEW IT EXISTED BEFORE LAST WEEK 😭😭😭

28) it’s not weird, i just want a large figurine of kuukou like the ones we got for rhyme anima 😭 he’ll probably look ugly but that’s okay he’s my gremlin scrunkly 😌

29) vocaloid collab??? a different mobage collab??? like idk what if ainana and hypmic collabed we could get the fattest spiderman pointing meme going on lol

30) i think there is a lot of empty air in between the 6 colours and mixed up tracks like how okay is samatoki and ramuda’s relationship really??? ramuda didn’t sound too enthused by jakurai’s desire to help even in the fling posse inc track. if chuuoku intends to use sasasama and ichikuu against each other i would like to see them really rekindle that friendship!!! and more of the mixed up divisions 🤭

31) i understand if rei’s not your cup of tea lol but he is a lot of fun lol. rosho tends to get slept on a lot in the sense that he’s kinda just sasara’s man, but only that and it kinda sucks a little lol. also!!!! if rio and hitoya have millions of numbers of fans i am one of them. if rio and hitoya have ten fans i am one of them. if rio and hitoya have only one fan that is me. if rio and hitoya have no fans, that means i am no longer—

32) THIS IS LIKE ASKING WHY DO WE NEED THE SUN TO SUSTAIN LIFE I JUST LOVE KUUKOU DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED LOL

33) hmmmmm how about: tho kuukou isn’t afraid of ghosts, when he was much younger, on a trip to the beach with his family, he saw all of the dead souls that the ocean has claimed reaching out to him as if to pull him into the ocean and claim him. so some of that fear comes from a bad supernatural childhood experience

34) liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike nemu?????? nemu???????? nemu??????????????? i also have taken unami and ren as lowkey ocs and supplanted personalities that are very self indulging to what i want for kuukou lol

35) bat has everything i don’t have packaged with everything that i love and it’s so dope like wtf??? wtf????

36) idk which hypster magazine it was but one of the magazines asked the characters what’s something they’ve been into lately. jyushi answered with muscle training and it’s 💯% because on a hot and sunny day, where kuukou quite frequently used his shirt to wipe up the sweat from his face and hitoya sweated thru both his undershirt and dress shirt, he was exposed kuukou’s abs and hitoya’s surprisingly fit body and thought to himself, ‘god i wish that were me’ lmao

37) i don’t want any new divisions at all but if we were to get some, i’d hope they’d be from okinawa, hokkaido or kyoto

38) i cyberstalk hayama-san as best as i can lol and i watch sakakihara-san, takeuchi-san, and iwasaki-san’s web shows occasionally!!!! i also poke around whatever mtc’s seiyuu are doing every once in a while 🤗

39) watching the hyprice grow to hypmic music has been very enlightening lmao

40) i’m still pretty proud i pumped out a whole month worth of kuukou art for his bday lol. also the fanart i just posted for bat solos might be some of my best stuff actually like how did i do that kuukou one fr

41) i prefer the manga/drama tracks, but the stage’s phenomenal writing will always have me in a vice grip lol

42) i’m banking on ‘if we hesitate etc’ being the most emotionally draining experience that canon will ever put me thru because if because if bat goes thru something like that i may never recover actually lmao

43) i feel like i’m an observer rather than a theorist??? but i made an observation that bat has a weathering the storm motif a while back from their speakers and mics and hitoya wound up stating just that in cross a line so that made me feel pretty accomplished lol

44) I WANT TO SEE THE FALL OUTS!!!!!!! HOW DID KUUKOU AND SASARA DEAL WITH THEIR SUDDEN SEPARATION AND HOW THEY SNAPPED OUT OF THEIR HYPNOSIS!!!!!!!! RAMUDA PICKING HIMSELF UP FROM JAKURAI DISAPPOINTING HIM!!!!!!!!!!! MORE OF THAT PLS!!!!!

45) nobody irl but to all of those who sent me asks/dms, know that i appreciate it and i would k—

46) fck the drbs but also it’d be nice if bb or mtc won but also kuukou would look 🥵 on a throne soooooo

47) idk if anyone in this cast is considering the ramifications of taking over/overthrowing the government. i think it’d be neat to see a 2nd gen hypmic with new divisions scrambling to survive the power vacuum our gen has caused and the og gen has effectively become the antagonists to the 2nd gen. it’d be like a cycle!!!! otome took over the government for more altruistic reasons but is as oppressive as her predecessor; same hat, og gen overthrew the government for the good of all but didn’t have any plans to fix it, only to remove and creates even more discord

48) comfort???? a fandom home????? massive brainrot????? pick your poison lol

49) save your wallets and don’t lol the characters are fun!!!! the music can be a gateway to something you’ve never experienced!!!!!! you can lose hours of your life trying to find the details!!!!!!!!! it’s fun!!!!!!! 😄

50) lol i have a tattoo, that’s plenty reminder ✌️

🌸Shoujo Manga Romance 🌸[Yamada Saburo]🌸

Saburo has no idea what his brothers were on about.

He was a bit late arriving home that evening due to a change in plans, choosing to walk you home in the rain since you’d forgotten your umbrella. The two of you had stayed after school to study together and time had really gotten away from him, and he knew it wasn’t right to have you walk home in the dark, in the rain, without someone around to keep an eye on you. He’d sent a quick text to Ichiro to let his brother know he’d be late which is why he’s confused that the eldest seems to be staring at him so intensely.

“Do you like this person?”

“Why would I be friends with them if I didn’t like them?”

“Not like that, stupid,” Jiro rolled his eyes as if it’s the most obvious thing in the world, “He means do you have a crush on them.”

Saburo had never really thought about you in that light, at least not consciously. You were a cute, friendly person who had suddenly started talking to him in class one day; he was considered a bit odd with a hard-to-read personality so he didn’t have many friends, and you seemed to zone in on this quickly. You didn’t mind that he had some difficulty holding a conversation or that he was rather direct with his opinions, listening without judgment while complimenting how smart he appeared to be. You’d begun to join him for lunch despite the whispers from your friends, telling him that you enjoyed his company more than theirs anyway. He felt like the two of you were kindred spirits, connected on a level that wasn’t easily attained by anyone (and may be a once in a lifetime opportunity).

Apparently, his lack of response answered his brother’s question without the need for words.  

“Hold on, hold on, I gotta find it first…” Ichiro quickly left the room as Saburo stared after him curiously, wondering what sort of sage advice his brother planned on offering up to him; he doesn’t know how successful Ichiro is in love as he’d never brought around a significant other but Saburo had no doubts that his big brother was incredibly charming and seen as a catch. He doesn’t know if he could ever live up to that ideal but his thoughts are quickly cut off as Ichiro returns with a manga in hand, holding it out for Saburo to take. “Tell us if tonight was just like this.”

The similarities between what had gone down tonight and what was pictured in the manga was almost eerie, Saburo frowning as he sees the inner frustration of the other party at not having their obvious feelings be recognized. Is that how you felt about him? Was he truly the oblivious one here? He nodded his head as he closed the book, sliding it over to his brother who was looking at him expectantly (Jiro was sharing the same look, but was trying to appear disinterested in the situation as a whole).

“That’s weird… It was a lot like that,” Saburo thinks about the last panel he’d read where the person had kissed their love interests cheek, fingers stroking his real flesh and blood cheek where you’d just done the same. He hadn’t thought to read into it too deeply but with the way his brothers were looking at each other, he felt like maybe he’d been missing out on some clear signals. “Is it bad?”

How did these things normally work out in these love stories that Ichiro and Jiro seemed to love reading so much?

“I offered to help them study for a test so they’re coming over tomorrow…!” Saburo jumped as his brothers suddenly grabbed each other by the jacket, sharing another look that the youngest couldn’t quite understand. He was beginning to feel nervous about the interaction, wondering if you expected the same out of him, cheeks flushing as he wondered if you’d ever have a crush on someone like him. “W-What?!”

“It’s the perfect set-up!” Ichiro cried out with a huge grin on his face, “Don’t worry, I have more for you to read before they come over! You’ll be ready to make all your shoujo dreams come true!”

“But I have to study myself…”

Saburo’s words fell on deaf ears, his brothers already deep in conversation about how tomorrow would play out.
