Yukiya in the second part of the Yatagarasu series.
(Please don’t click if you dislike spoilers. I beg you. But if you are not averse to them, then please freely discuss them with me. )
I have to scream !!!
He’s in his 40s “with an elegant appearance.” (One of my fave Japanese fan artists on X has several renditions of him as a middle-aged man. And they are fantastic. )
Tumblr media
He’s muscular, hugely built, perhaps like Lord Genya in his prime or his dad Yukimasa (who didn’t look bad at all when he married Fuyuki, thank you to mangaka Natsumi Matsuzaki ), with long, wavy brown hair that has white streaks on it. It reaches the floor when he does a dogeza
He exudes authority, so much authority, so much power, and everyone, mostly, is afraid of him, admires him.
He’s now the leader of the clan. Something like the Prime Minister. He’s called a Yellow Raven, the leader of all government officials. When you let the military take over the government, Yukiya’s government happens. His propaganda re “monkeys” reminds me of a real-life happening where former Philippine president Duterte and his cohorts’ so-called red-tagging and anyone who is a suspected drug user/small-time drug peddler has shoot to kill order. That is, anyone who was not in line with the Duterte government’s policies (mostly political rivals) was part of the communist party/drug addict and therefore needed to be eradicated. Use a magic word, “monkey,” and everything is justified. (I thoroughly understand, on the other hand, Yukiya’s reason that “people are fools”)
He has taken a vow not to marry nor to have children to undertake the role of Yellow Raven, which compared to the others before him, these Yellow Ravens were older and begot children before they got the position. A monk or a priest in Yamauchi means that you don’t belong to any of the four houses and discard the so-called worldly delights.
He doesn’t have a love interest, but that word sparring with (Nazukihiko’s daughter) Himemiya’s other persona is oozing with sexual tension that is palpable to those who have heard them including Haruma, who is his loyal supporter/personal secretary/adjutant (just imagine a mature intelligent man and an intelligent beautiful young woman having a heated political discussion and the young woman is not at all afraid bc darn she knows this person so well as he was like her babysitter/minder/aide/quasi family member/crush when she was young. Well played Chisato Abe, well played !)
He is so disenchanted with life, and vows to hold on to power as long as it takes, yet the appearance of Himemiya’s other persona is about to rock his world
Yes, he has always had this darkness in him, and he lets this darkness prevail because he’s lost those people who have been so close to him, who he loves dearly. AND YET, he never mourned them properly. His heart suddenly closed off like a defence mechanism to assuage the pain that he’d feel. Though there was once an incident when he decided to let go during the first part of the series the reason he was so attached to Himemiya. And when (he thought) Himemiya “rejected” him, it was the day he was convinced that no one really cared. You just watch Episode 11 and listen to Wakamiya talks about Atsufusa and you have in a nutshell Yukiya now. The court will change you.
Anime * Yukiya seems to be a bit gentler. So I don’t know how will they make him so if ever we’ve gotten another season like in the books.

I remember being like 8 years old and hearing that celery is basically negative calories since eating it burns more than it's actually worth (don't know how true that is) and my first thought was like "when I grow I'm only going to eat celery so I'll be skinny" like damn I've always been like this huh

everyone's joking about a lesbian love triangle being the focus of rhaenyra/alicent/mysaria's stories in hotd s3 but that will literally be what happens when mysaria acts to uphold and support the image of rhaenyra as queen (or rhaenyra's duty) and alicent is kept prisoner (or a hidden but unavoidable reminder of rhaenyra's love). and so the love triangle will serve to represent rhaenyra's internal conflict between love and duty
#and if you are me and subscribe to the theory that alicent will escape to dragonstone with rhaenyra after the riots in KL#then rhaenyra chooses alicent/love#i think the book page foreshadows this attempt at escape#“traveling across the narrow to flee a war of dragons”#alicent going to dragonstone with rhaenyra would also totally recontextualize rhaenyra selling her crown to pay for passage#rhaenyra abandons this ultimate symbol of her duty for a final chance at happiness with alicent#and then there's the horrible irony of the audience already knowing that aegon ii has taken dragonstone as they sail toward the island#knowing that rhaenyra and alicent could never actually be physically liberated from the system of patriarchal violence they exist in#but by that point they have both mentally liberated themselves from it#rhaenyra selling her crown and alicent finally accepting rhaenyra's offer to run away and totally abandoning duty#and so the love was important and valuable in the sense that they both die understanding that they couldn't change the part they played#but they know now that they had this love that sustained them despite the plotting and scheming and violence#and the love will be forgotten by history but not by them and in that their love will finally be free#crazy actually that they decided to do this shit with a game of thrones prequel#hotd#alicent hightower#hotd spoilers#rhaenicent#rhaenyra targaryen#house of the dragon#also they are having gay sex on the boat to dragonstone i saw it in a vision

Another thing I love about The Raven Cycle is that it’s an entire four book series about fate and prophecy and escaping the narrative, but if you pay close attention you can see that the entire time, miniature prophecies are coming to fruition throughout the entire series. Niall Lynch tells his middle son that the day he was born, it rained blood, and Aurora told him ravens laughed. On the day Gwenllian is raised from her tomb, both occur. At the beginning of the second book, Gansey mentions that Glendower had magicians with him that could change the weather and tell the future. By the end, Gansey has both (Ronan, with his miniature suns and Adam, his psychic). Gansey approaches Ronan in the church in the first book, and is sure that his voice wakes Ronan from death. And then in the third, his voice has exactly that power.

Looking back on the entire show after watching the finale makes me realize just the insane amount of detail and foreshadowing present.
Whenever N’s memory gets brought up, it’s usually paired with him being beheaded
Ep 1: Gets his head blasted off by Uzi and loses 2 hours of memory
Ep 3: Brings up his memory to V who slices his head off
Ep 5: The episode is all about N’s memories and we briefly see his worker drone body missing it’s head when they get to the basement
Ep 8: The Solver rips N’s head off, and after regrowing it, he recalls another memory of the Solver tearing him apart as a worker
The constant emphasis on hands in the show
The disassembly drones having swappable hands
Uzi gets stabbed in the hand in episode one
The Solver and eldritch J with the weird human hand tentacles
The fact that characters are constantly losing hands and arms
V’s weird monster arm from the flashback
The handlights indicating whether a drone is possessed
The constant close ups of whenever N and Uzi hold hands
The secret handshake
Uzi’s hand burning in ep4 and her hand burning as she destroys Cyn’s heart in ep8
The Solver using Tessa’s hand and fingerprint to get past a Captcha Test
The solver powers revolving around hand movement
The hands on Uzi’s wings
Doll’s knife going through Uzi’s hand
Alice chopping Uzi’s finger off
N chopping Uzi’s hand off to save her
There’s more here, and it happens in the other Glitch shows too. For example, Pomni’s glitched hand, the Meta Runner arms being the main catalyst for the conflict in MR, and meme guardians holding hands for power in SMG4
The constant foreshadowing for CynTessa and the little details that make so much more sense in hindsight
Episodes 6 and 7 we see N, V, and J’s yellow eyes reflected in Tessa’s helmet
The creepy apparition of CynTessa in Ep4
Cyn and Tessa having the exact same haircut
The whole entire scene with Tessa and the sentinels
Without the context of ep7, that scene plays out like Uzi’s stress at seeing N get attacked by the Sentinels causes her to be briefly possessed by Solver in order to override the controls
Looking back at it, however, the Solver only fully possessed Uzi when Tessa got bitten by the sentinel. It was trying to save itself not N.
It literally saved itself and disguised the attempt as Uzi trying to protect N. If that’s not a perfect metaphor for who and what the Absolute Solver is, idk what is.
And it did it again at the end of the episode where it yet again it possessed Uzi to get the door open right when the sentinel charged at Tessa.
The Sentinel briefly shutting down and getting confused at what it thought was human blood, and then a few scenes later it comes back and guns directly for Tessa, with her blood no longer working to distract it.
Tessa and Cyn’s matching fondness for N in particular.
Tessa outright beheading a drone in her first introduction which contradicts her character in ep5
Then there’s the Solver/Cyn’s almost stalker-like obsession with N
N being the only DD to not feel pain. J and V grunt and yell when they get stabbed or lose a limb, but N gets ripped apart and doesn’t even blink
Cyn calling N “big brother” which the Solver does as well. V and J are never once called “big sister”.
N being the only DD to have lost his memories, possibly so the Solver could control him better. N is a sweetheart by nature and by continuing to override his memories every time he tries to protect the Workers, the Solver can keep him bloodthirsty and feral.
The weird hologram of Maid V that the Solver used to taunt him
The Cyn hologram hugging him
The Solver purposely exploiting N’s feelings for Uzi to keep him from fully attacking her while she’s possessed.
The whole puppy dog eyes thing
“Your backups will forgive me” and the fact that she has backups of N even before the mansion massacre.
The Solver N, V, and J retain their personalities only because it liked N’s in particular
The fact that it sent the nicest, kindest drone in the entire show to slaughter its own kind
The low, annoyed “Hello Uzi” followed by the high pitched, upbeat “Hi N :D”
How the Solver plays around with Tessa’s corpse and her affection for N
Again with how it plays with N’s relationship with Uzi by using Tessa’s voice to tell him that he has to kill Uzi to save the universe
The Solver using a hologram of N to fuck with Uzi twice
The Solver using the hologram of N to fool V into calling out for him so it could lure the real N out
The Solver’s obsession with N technically never going away. With Cyn as the main host it was a sibling bond, but with Uzi now the main host it’ll likely latch onto her romantic love for N
The absolute insane foreshadowing to Uzi becoming the Solver itself
The occasional reflection of N and V’s yellow eyes in Uzi’s visor
Uzi overwriting Cyn’s admin control and replacing it with her own
Uzi possessing the Solver cameras while in N’s memories, and the cameras having purple eyes
The protagonist’s journey graph in presentation in the very first episode alluding to a big fight and monstrous transformation at the end.
Uzi overpowering CynTessa with her own Solver
Uzi breaking through possession via the powers of angst and teenage rebellion, without even needing the patch like Nori and Yeva
Uzi and Tessa having the same fleshy bat wings
Uzi’s core number being 1001 just like Cyn’s
Uzi’s tail chewing on N’s head for some reason in episode 6, likely foreshadowing to Cyn being in her tail
Uzi possessing Braiden just like the Solver would
Other little details
Uzi’s purple being a perfect complement to N’s yellow which also matches their personalities
The background posters having just the stupidest/funniest notes on them
Uzi’s tail looking like a sentinel head
Lizzy having seemingly infinite phones
The drones treating the school bus like it’s an animal with sentience
Braiden’s head literally always being on fire, even in death
The references to Until Dawn and Friday the Thirteenth in episode 4
The soundtracks having just the stupidest fucking titles (affectionate), with some of them even referencing each other.
N going from being J’s doormat in episode 1 to outright beheading Tessa in episode 7 when he realized she lied to him
The Solver making its biggest mistake asking N to choose “the universe over the life of one little drone” because it didn’t account for the “one little drone” being Cyn, not Uzi
The Protagonist’s Journey chart foreshadowing Nori being alive with the “help from an unexpected source” close to the end of the timeline
Khan going from leaving Uzi for dead to rebuilding her rail gun and directly attacking the Solver in the hopes of saving her
Also Khan’s behavior and bad parenting suddenly making a lot more sense once we finally see a full photo of Nori and realize that Uzi is damn near identical to her mother.
Uzi’s teeth aren’t sharp until after her transformation in ep4
In a roundabout way, the humans on Copper-9 were successful is making something that could stop the Solver, as they caused the incidents that would eventually lead to Nori meeting Khan and passing down her genetics to Uzi

EARTH 1610 MILES (our miles) WAS SUPPOSED TO BECOME THE PROWLER.
in Into The Spiderverse we see Miles meet Peter
Tumblr media
his colors originally look like this. green and purple. which are his “canon” colors and are supposed to represent him
Tumblr media
but then they change. they turn red and blue signifying the change of canon and therefore his fate.
so instead of him becoming an enemy to Spiderman, he becomes a friend to spiderman.
and instead of Earth 42 Miles becoming spiderman, he becomes the prowler in a world where spiderman can no longer exist.
