1 and 17 for the ask game :]
1. hmmm i think akiyama tbh? i feel like people boil him down to shweepy lil malewife (and I'm guilty of this too) a little too often when he's literally a loan shark who makes desperate people jump through bizarre reality tv bullshit to get help from him, stuff that's kinda unnecessary when he's got scrooge mcduck money. it's literally his main shtick as the lifeline of kamurocho. i think he's fundamentally meritocratic and odd and also he was volunteered to kill a guy so kiryu didn't have to which is just. he's down to kill ok you random civilian you. and i think it should be explored more!! i don't think that i have a great grasp on his character but i feel like he's more sleazy and cold and weird and maybe even shallow than people make him out to be? let him be morally gray. if you love him love him anyway, those bits included, yeah?
17. i am SHOCKED there is not more haruka-centric content??? like stuff from her perspective, about her life, exploring her experiences and feelings, etc. she's a pretty important character and yeah she's like young and whatever but that's OUR girl y'know. she's our sweetie pie give her the spotlight. doesn't even have to be fluffy either go make her be angsty and/or evil idk. i think ppl wanna focus on kiryu in their interactions and i get that bc i love kiryu being a father stuff but she's a person too is all. also saejima is quite important and he's barely in short form content??? he gets more attention in fics but no one wants to draw him. are you scared of his big bald head???? well I'm not. should go draw him he's funny
#look if mine fans can make fun of mine for being a stock bro akiyama fans shoukd do the same thing#also ik haruka's bit has a lot to do with misogyny on both the studio's and fans' part but like. still#not a haruka nor an rgg fandom specific issue for sure#ALSO SAEBABA???? i was SHOCKED to find that there was barely anything for them relatively speaking. theyre gay as hell wym#baba my beloved im so sorry girl#anyway thank you for the ask!!! i thought question 1 was gonna be tough but i actually feel pretty good about this one#my takes dont tend to be very hot and my view of characters is flexible enough that most interpretations work for me#but yeah akiyama has committed capitalist crimes and needs to go to stinkboy guillotine jail#tbh im not crazy about akiyama overall but i think if i played the games he's in again that could change...? i gotta spend more time with#him to figure him out basically#some of it's bc he gets the most attention in y4 and his stuff sometimes rubbed me the wrong way#but then again i ignore several Fucking Bad things going on with that game and saejima particularly so why not for aki too yk
