(v light ch 1080/1100s(ish) hajime no ippo spoilers)

one of the major strengths of hajime no ippo is it’s willingness to let pretty much all the characters have several chapters of spotlight and i like seeing everyone’s fights not just ippo’s like the mashiba sendo back to back was just as entertaining as takamura’s unification bout and i think that’s so cool !!!

also one of my favorite things the author does is just match up different characters by having them sit next to each other at all the various fights with a mixture of reasons like sometimes people pull up and the reactions are like “are those two friends???” and then theres also the scenarios where it’s like “wtf i have to sit next to THIS guy” and now miyata pulls up on his ex-lover in the front row <3 like there’s endless iterations and combinations and i just think it’s such smart writing!!!!!!!!

who could they be i wonder ?

I did the six fanarts challenge on my Instagram and it was really fun, so I thought I’d share it here as well!! Thanks to everyone who sent character suggestions, they were all so much fun to draw.

Kid/Teenage Mashiba Headcanons Nobody Asked For

Because Chapter 1260 was an absolute roller coaster of emotions and I can’t help but feel motivated to write about everyone’s favorite eyebrow man.

He was probably picked on in elementary school for being a quiet, introverted gangly kid. The anger he built up from getting bullied and outcasted everyday eventually exploded when his classmates tried to pick on Kumi for defending him and paved the way to his becoming the Grim Reaper.

Already built an intimidating reputation by the time he reached high school but never joined any gangs or outright attacked people. He preferred to be left alone to study in peace but always lost it when people would try to bully him again and challenge him to fights. Being constantly accused of picking fights with his classmates even when he was simply defending himself definitely wasn't good for his angsty teenage psyche.

In spite of his anger issues and unfriendly nature, he was a surprisingly smart kid who could keep up with all his classes and never really had a problem with grades. Grew up helping Kumi with her schoolwork but stopped when he had to work to support them. If not for his parents' unfortunate deaths, he might have been able to go to a good college if he tried.

Had (and still has) a few weird interests that only made sense to him and his family but creeped out everyone else. Felt a deep connection to spiders since they're both treated as pariahs by everyone else and secretly cared for them in school (Can you imagine him buying a pet tarantula and doting after it the same way Kimura cares for his pet dragon fish? That would be absolutely glorious).

The few times he tried to play with his other classmates in elementary school all ended in disaster since his grumpy demeanor and height rubbed everyone the wrong way. Even when he was at his best behavior (eg. never saying anything and holding back so everyone would stop feeling bad whenever they lost to him at tag), some kid would always find a way to exclude him for "not following the rules" or use him as a scapegoat whenever they got into trouble with adults. He eventually became sick of this routine by third or fourth grade and either kept to himself or played with his sister during their free time.

Secretly loved watching Super Sentai shows and Mecha Anime in elementary and middle school. I like to imagine that as an adult, he sometimes likes to watch a few episodes of Kamen Rider, Gundam, or Transformers at home because "he's got nothing else to do" and because of nostalgia for a time when things didn't suck so bad. (I also have this hilarious image of him buying an Optimus Prime or Dinobot toy in America and proudly displaying it in his room while everyone just stares in shock).

I have loooots more of these in my head but I'd also like to hear everyone's ideas! :D

June Wrap Up | 2018

This was a really great month for reading. I read sixteen books and once again I have to reblog this post to fit all the tags in. A lot of them were great. Some of them were absolute trash but most were pretty good.

The first book I read was One of Us is Lying by Karen M. McManus:

Okay so I enjoyed this book but I had some major problems with it. Mostly because the crux of the conflict relies on things that are completely illogical. Teachers practice illegal(ish) searches and seizure that wouldn’t fly by any judge or education administration. An app that caused someone to attempt suicide is not immediately taken down. Author writing a book about crime doesn’t know about the two party recording consent laws. It’s frustrating and yet was enjoyable. I think McManus can write a good mystery and I liked her characters. She just needs to work on her plots. I gave this book a three out of five stars.

Then I read The Wicker King by K. Ancrum:

I don’t really know how to feel about this book. Partly anxiety because of all the mental health stuff and medical stuff. I thought Jack and August’s relationship was pretty toxic and not very healthy. I’m not really into the super edgy, angsty, life-fucking-sucks style of books but it wasn’t bad. I enjoyed reading this. It kept me going. I think I liked the side characters more. The twins, Rina and Alex mostly. So I guess I’m giving this four out of five stars.

Next, I caved and bought the next volume of A Silent Voice by Yoshitoki Oima:

So, in this book Shoya gets Shoko to reunite with the girl who tried to learn sign language in sixth grade. That was really nice. She’s kind of a bland character though. Then we get the re-introduction of Naoka. Who’s still a bitch. She’s an interesting character and it’ll be interesting to see if she shows up again and has any development. But the big tear jerking in this story is when Shoko admits to loving Shoya but he doesn’t understand her. And it’s so sad. Ughhhhh…I’m probably going to buy the next one. Wasn’t as good as the last two but still five out of five stars.

Then I read the fourth volume of A Silent Voice:

Ahhhh so many emotions in this one. First Shoya gets more friends. There’s Satoshi Mashiba is a hottie. Then Naoka planned for Shoya to see one of his childhood friends. I’m guessing at some point he’s actually going to talk to Kazuki. But the big thing that happened in this one was that Shoko’s grandma died. It was really sad and we got to see Shoko’s mother’s backstory and it made me tear up. I just want someone to help out this poor woman. My favorite so far! Five out of five!

Then I finished but did not complete the Summer I Turned Pretty bind up by Jenny Han:

I read the first two books in this bind up but rage quit the last one after five chapters. The first book was fun. Belly was a snot and is written like a 10 year old instead of a sixteen year old. However, I liked the rest of the characters and wanted to see what would happen to them. I gave that four out of five stars. Then I went onto the next book hoping that Belly got better. She did not. She got worse. She’s such a bitch to her parents in this book, especially to her mother. Belly says some awful things to her mother and I don’t even think she apologizes for it. Conrad also starts to act like a little snot. He just leaves school without telling his brother. They also don’t do the most logical and correct answer which is to call Belly’s mom and ask her for help. That was my first instinct and it takes them forever to figure it out. And it’s only when Belly drunk calls her mom. God this book was so bad. Two out of five. Then I tried to read the third book but it was just Belly being a bitch to Jeremiah and Jeremiah kind of cheating on Belly. DNF’ed. Will not be reading any more Jenny Han books.

Next, I finally reread Cress by Marissa Meyer:

I still can’t believe how well this series has held up. There are a few logic problems like Cinder presses her metal hand onto her face to “cool off”. Marissa, I don’t press my face to the roof of my car to cool off. Also Kai is kind of more annoying than I remember him being. However, I still really enjoying this series. I like the dynamic Cress adds and I teared up when Erland died. I also really liked Winter small roll. She’s such a fun character. Jacin was also amusing. I give this book five out of five stars.

I think picked up Aru Shah and the End of Time by Roshani Chokshi:

This book was pretty good. I was a little bit skeptical going in and I did end up having a few problems with it. The humor didn’t always land and it was a little too similar to the Lightning Thief. However, I think this series has potential and there were a lot of cool elements that I really enjoyed and I’m excited to see where this series goes. I gave this book four out of five stars.

I felt like going back to A Silent Voice and read the fifth, sixth and final volume:

The fifth one was a little underwhelming. I still gave it four stars but it mostly focused on the movie plot which isn’t my favorite thing. I did like getting to know more about Mashiba who is my favorite even if he is a little…intense. Also Shoko might have attempted suicide at the so it was a real cliffhanger. Get it? Then the sixth one was a bit better. It’s starts off with Shoko’s mother apologizing to Shoya’s mother and it’s really sad. Also Nao just starts beating the shit out of Shoko and then Shoko’s mother fights back which was really awesome. We saw that Satoshi was bullied for his…eyebrows and is super creepy about it. Then we get kind of Shoko’s perspective on things. Not my favorite but I enjoyed it. Five out of five stars. Then I finally read the 7th and last volume. This was a nice ending to the series. You had the mothers getting drunk and becoming friends. Shoko and Shoya both want to become hairdressers. And they’re eventually going to Tokyo together? It’s a nice, hopeful ending. I gave it five out of five stars.

Next, I read The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert:

This book was Every Heart a Doorway but done better. I still didn’t love this book. I gave it three stars. I just don’t like this type of super cynical tone. It just annoys me. However I thought the world and how the Hinterland worked was pretty awesome. I also liked the twist that Alice was Alice-Three-Times and Ella had plucked her from the story. Finches character kind of bugged me. Overall I gave this book three out of five stars. I won’t be continuing on with this series but I may check out another Albert book.

Then the newest volume of Tokyo Ghoul: re by Sui Ishida came out:

I enjoyed this one. I wasn’t expect an all out fight. In this Shu’s family is discovered of being a bunch of ghouls so there’s a big fight. Sen/Bandage girl got Kanae and made him crazy…er, crazier. There’s a really great seen between Akira and Kaneki where she hugs him. I’m pretty sure Amon’s out there somewhere. Lots of people die, including Hairu who was really cute. Then a random monster came at the end. Overall it wasn’t the best fight ever but I still enjoyed it Five out of five stars.

I decided to order Volume Two of Teen Titans so I reread the first volume Teen Titans: Damien Knows Best by Benjamin Percy:

Why read new books when I can reread comics? Also god I love the art in the first issue. I wish the art had stayed that way. But I did like the art in the last issue. I think the rest is fine but man that first issue is great. I really love this team dynamic. All the different personalities and powers. It’s so cool. And I’m a sucker for the heroes versus their opposites. It’s great. I wonder when we’ll see Mara and the Demon’s Fist again. Five out of five stars.

A few days later Teen Titans Vol. 2: The Rise of Aqualad by Benjamin Percy came out:

I really enjoyed this book. I’m a little sad that Aqualad’s personality and backstory is completely different but he still has the same Young Justice design. However, I still think he’s a really interesting character. I like his arc with his father. I really liked Kid Flash and Raven’s relationship and wish we saw more of it. But the thing I really liked was Star Fire taking charge. She’s my favorite character and honestly the best leader for this team. Hopefully we’ll see more of her doing this in the future. This book got five out of five stars as well.

Then, I read Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor:

This took me like 10 days to read despite the fact that I really enjoyed it. I kept getting distract by shorter books. I really enjoyed this book. I liked Karou having to work with the White Wolf. Thiago is such a great villain and I’m glad he died. I’m sad that Hazael died and wish he would have stuck around. He gave the angel trio a fun dynamic. I’m interested to read the next book. It’s going to be a lot of battling but hopefully not a lot of “Will Karou and Akiva get together???” Because they will.

And those are all the books I read in June! It was a great month and I’m now onto July!

[teja-has-puppet-autism]

I'm trying to decide if Anya would tell Sohma (uncle), Kago (quadruplet), or Ashanti (dad) about her plurality first.

I know she wouldn't tell Nile (other dad) first, mainly cause she feels like he's got enough on his plate.

I'm leaning toward Sohma (he's a psychologist and would be more likely to know about shit) BUT like. She's the closest with Kago and Ashanti so idk idk

Might have to rp out all the options and see which one feels more right

Ooouuugggghh we're playing a reboot of our very first dnd campaign (aka the campaign that started it all) and FUCK I just can not wait to replay their story from the beginning but with so much more practice and substance this time.

The first go round they fucked, we rolled for pregnancy cause haha, she was preggers, had triplets, and we kinda just went on from there with such a wobbly base relationship and like! That's still the case! They're still BARELY going to know each other before having to decide what to do with this pregnancy! But now I have like 5 years of playing under my belt and have so much more story I want to tell.

I fucking love these two, and I am just so fucking excited to experience them loving each other for the first time again

I'm so fucking in love with them, your honor
