Might need to unironically make that frame by frame analysis of Majima's expressions in the final scene with Makoto in yakuza 0 im being so fr ive been thinking of that for like a Week

#AUGHHHHH #HE DOESNT SAY ANYTHING BUT HIS FACE JUST MANAGES TO BETRAY HIS FEELINGS #YOU CAN SEE IT. THE WAY HE SHIFTS THROUGH A RANGE OF EMOTIONS IN THE SPAN OF LIKE 5 SECONDS #ITS SO FUCKED UP #THERES A POINT WHERE HE JUST EVER SO SLIGHTLY SMILES AT HER #AT THE HOPE THAT MAKOTO MIGHT REMEMBER HIM. IF NOT FOR HIS FACE THEN MAYBE HIS ACTIONS #AND. AND THEN THE WAY HIS FACE FALLS AFTERWARDS AND HE LOOKS HURT #I FUCKING. JTS FUCKED UP MAB #the facial expression animations in y0 specifically are so good i think abt this all the time #AND IT CULMINATES IN THAT CUTSCENE. TRUST #hmghh majimfa...#TGAT LAST CUTSCENE MAKES ME SO SICK ITS SO NOT FUNNY EVERYTHING ABOUT IT #THE MUSIC. EVERYTHING MAJIMA FUCKING DOES. UGH #i need like a printed out picture of him to crumple up and pour milk on #or a cardboard cutout to beat up. idfk i Hate Him i need to analyze him so bad #that scene in the actual-final cutscene of the game where makoto is listening to the music box on her watch #and it fade transitions to majima walking in kamurocho alone with it playing in the bg #(before it gets gay)#i hate him when i get back to kiwami i need to beat him up everytime i see him in the streets #so that he wont be alone of course. Haha #sigh. i should make that post. actually no i should be shot instead

classical music rant ahead~

I’m not gonna reblog the post itself because people can’t be normal in the notes* but oh my god that “if it sounds like X, it’s Y composer” post is the most infuriatingly, wildly inaccurate thing. “mansplaining” for Wagner?!? REALLY?!? Saying Bach sounds “like a vampire” what does that even meANNNN. don’t get me started on the Beethoven (!!) and Shostakovich ones or I will turn into an incoherent seething mess. it’s worse than just being inaccurate even, it’s insulting to their music and range how inaccurate that user’s descriptions are.

like. there’s so many ways to make FUNNY posts about classical music!!! throwback to my prof bringing in shot glasses and grape juice when we covered Tristan and Isolde! Throwback to my cinnaminim meme!! Throwback to the [redacted] symphony members MEME GROUP where we EXCLUSIVELY SHARED CLASSICAL MUSIC MEMES. throwback to my Bach shirt with CHICKENS ON IT. Composer memes. Symphony memes. Translation memes. Oboi. drunk sugar plum fairy. old twoset skits. like.

I just. keep classical music accessible, yes. criticize it, yes! love it, yes! meme on it, yes!! remix it in sillygoofy ways! yes! Be silly and unserious or serious and yearning about it! Or both/all/more all at once! by all means!!! just. don’t make a joke that’s unfunny because it’s wildly inaccurate, then get mad at me for not laughing. 😐 like. lemme just call you the scarecrow because of this wild strawman fallacy logic you’re exhibiting.

*apparently some tumblr users can’t understand the concept of “this joke isn’t funny and it’s probably because the ‘joke’ isn’t really very accurate to the subject matter itself” because any time someone in the notes says that, people accuse them of being “elitist about classical music” like bro what. that is just. false equivalence. saying a joke isn’t funny because it’s inaccurate isn’t elitism it’s just the truth

#personal #what a stupid thing to get so incensed about at 10pm on a Friday night but good lord #I’m sorry but if someone saying ‘I don’t get the joke it’s not funny because it’s inaccurate’ makes you immediately jump to calling them an #elitist and accusing them of being gatekeeping?? uh. bro… are you like. okay. like #actually maybe go listen to some new world symphony second movement or Mahler 5 second movement and you’ll calm down #<- referencing the ‘maybe you’ll calm down’ meme #I know I’m biased but. seriously what the fuck #there’s so many legitimately funny things to say and meme on abt the classical music world why make an unfunny joke and then get mad when i #don’t laugh 😐😐#then again what do I know I only have a multihundredthousanddollar piece of paper saying I’m good at this or something #<- which BY THE WAY. HEY. is not a requirement for enjoying classical music so DONT @ ME. I mention that only to say I am externally peer r #viewed certified as knowing of what I speak. ok. ok? got it? we cool?#yes. you need absolutely 0 credentials to enjoy classical music. you need exactly 0 credentials to be knowledgeable about classical music.#you do not need to even be the tiniest knowledgeable about classical music to enjoy classical music. all of this is true.#I mention my expensive piece of paper solely to say. maybe if credentialed people don’t find the joke accurate or funny it’s just.. not 😐#<- if EVEN credentialed people but somehow my word ‘even’ got deleted. anyways #anyways. this probably matters to 1.5 people but it got me incensed #if you’re going to clown on classical music at least be FUNNY about it and that requires your joke to at least be mildly relevant #there’s enough actual elitism around classical music you are simply missing the mark & muddying waters by throwing that term around #and using it inaccurately. you are in fact accomplishing the opposite of what you ostensibly intended

maybe bsol is that time jen tepper mentions when she was so upset about a review of a show of joe's that she broke a glass (&/or threw it out a window)

lucanus aer'tea song of all time. joy is stored in the dad song!!!

∞ hiiiiiiiiiii rave about this song for me (if you want!!)

uwaaa thanks forda ask bibi! i will do my best to ramble (<-0.5 seconds bfore shuffle decided to pull a pro gamer move™️)

It’s t-t-time, put on a mask, cause anyone will do If it can hide fear inside of you Come on, I’ll gather up all of your pride -Idola no Circus by Neru (translyrics and vocals by Oktavia)

sldjfdlksjfsld omg not shuffle putting my edgy vocaloid phase on blast HELP🙈🙈 (also MAN i missed listening to oktavia's voice...her power!! the way she channels the emotions of the song!! HER ADLIBSSSS!!!!! )

from first glance this song looks like it could be related to lost one's weeping, with the highschool uniform and the red school desks (PLUS THAT SICK GUITAR TRACK😩🎸🎸) but then you look at the lyrics and go HMMM actually this song feels like a different kind of fucked up like are the persona's issues still school-related? UH OH!! I DONT THINK WE'RE IN SCHOOL ANYM--

it could be about people-pleasing, it could be about feeling beyond salvation, it could be about those and a third worse thing thrown into the mix, i think. a lot of neru's songs are free to interpretation like that!

youtube

(send me ∞ and i'll give you my fave lyric from what shows on shuffle)

#aka i was abt to say CATERCORE for this song and then i double checked the lyrics #tbh i still dont know this song is about #as soon as i heard the guitar i was blasted back to my 15 yo self #15 yo dio: OUH SHIT THOSE GUITARRRRSSSSS #THOSE DRUMSSSSSS!!! RAWRRRR RAKENROLLLLL #i kinda miss when he leaned into his j-rock style more tho...#its true what they say: the shit u listen to as a teenager dictate ur comfort music taste #MANNNN i had a really big neru phase (i was down bad for a chara that only had 30 seconds of screentime in a three min pv)#dellet-asks #bibi-cha

harrowing experience yesterday where my friend and i debated whether or not "Closer" was a good song and it went on for like. way too long before we realized that i was talking about the nine inch nails song and they were talking about the god awful chainsmokers song.

#like . nightmare scenario: someone thinks i was defending the chainsmokers.#avpost #this is still like really funny to me. i was going to bat for it so hard bc i thought it was the nin song #i was like man what the hell its not bland with bad singing its a good song the singing is interesting . i like it #i can't even fully remember anything i said about it i just know i was like. thinking that it was a bad criticism.#yeah its a good song sure its not pretty dance music but the ugliness in it is what makes it good its similar to like why i like punk #like i know i definitely brought up punk music as a comparison which. if it was abt the chainsmokers wouldve been so fucking funny #all i know is when i finally said the words nine inch nails and they were like 'wh?? im talking about the chainsmokers song??' i like #physically turned away and almost fell to the ground i could not handle it. i felt like 5 seconds from going orz on the floor.#*through tears while cracking up* 'oh. yeah closer by the chainsmokers is a really bad song'

holy SHIT the scene with the hijra fighting in the lobby is SO cool

#the metal music and the jingling of the metals and jewels on their clothing #fucking incredible #the pacing and the beat and the lighting #so cool. SO COOL AAAAA #this movie has me in a fucking chokehold #the attention to detail and subtleties in the acting and the filming angles and the pacing!!!!!#ALL OF IT #kid beating rana to death with wide unblinking eyes. he doesn't want to miss a second of it #the framing of the red elevator #the way kid says so few lines and each of them are so so intense #the sound of the birds and a whispered prayer after everyone is dead #the ''directed by dev patel story by dev patel produced by dev patel kid played by dev patel''#UGH WHAT A MOVIE #the peace at the end. violence and violence and violence and justice and then peace.#i guess i should've specified. this is about monkey man #knowing what i know abt how many bones dev patel broke and how many artistic liberties they had to take bc of filming issues #so cool #i cannot get the scene in the lobby out of my head #the flowing and grace and color mixed with the horrible violence and blood everywhere and sweat and tears #I LOVE IT AAA

i love when a trans person makes a pierce of art with heavy trans themes and cis people run themselves in circles trying to go "uhmmm its not necessarily abt being trans!! we dont know for sure!!!! its just coming of age!!!!!" and its like. use your brain. like a little

#its happening a lot with nimona of course but it was also rlly big with cavetowns music #esp cuz he was stealth for a long time so ppl would find out for the first time and be like:0000 and its like.#did you listen to the words in this is home???? at all??????#and theyd be like 'well yeah but like. i thought it was like mulan'#and its like. take .0000001 seconds to consider why a cis man would sing abt 'ill cut my hair / ill hide my chest'#like. ??????????????#and then theyd be all like 'well but hes aromantic and he writes romance songs so hes not necessarily talking abt himself in his art'#and thats when i begin having to restrain myself from biting someone #cause like. yeah people can make art not about themselves but i think at a certain point you can just. infer

seems the will wood song i listen to on repeat until i’m almost sick of it of the month is: white noise!

#the second verse makes me feel ascendant emotions tbh #i think he is probably my favorite musician there is just something about his music that like. really hooks under my ribs #wish his fan base was a little more normal abt him. but you can’t have everything ig #i should listen to bears den new album too like. properly #new as in like. from last year #ted talks

It would be so sick to be able to talk about music with a conversation partner that isnt clearly trying to prove something about their music taste . Howveer when you listen to metal I guess those people are hard to come by

#sorry this is Abt my one irl WHY ARE YOU PRETENDING YOUVE BEEN LISTENING TO NOTHING BUT PROPER METAL FOR AGES . FIRST OF ALL YOU GOT A MCR #BAG SECOND OF ALL THE FIRST SONGS I EVER PLAYED YOU WHERE SONIC MUSIC AND MEDIEVAL FOLK YOU WOULD KNOW IM NOT A TRYHARD ABOUT MY TASTE #EITHER 😭😭#Sorry i find that kinda stuff very embarassing. I genuinely dont get why people cant just like what they like and not try to seem a #certain way. no respectable persin will judge you for listening to stuff besides 0.5 spotify listener black metal recorded on a broken #toaster .#ARGHHHH

I'm so fucking in love w them I swear to god it makes me lightheaded gdhfsjk

#ot3: ❤rhyme💛easy💙#tape entry circa 1980 #ngl im feeling fucking SAD abt not being w them #i want to be home w them in the 80s away from modern day and the internet and just be making music and living a free lifestyle #theyre so damn beautiful its insane... idk how its even possible for them to be so perfect... or for me to love them so much......#theyre definitely far from being perfect but they are to ME #i love every single thing abt them including their faults and aggravating qualities ghdfjsk #THEYRE JUST!!!!!! MY BEST FUCKING FRIENDS WHO HAVE KNOWN ME MY WHOLE LIFE!!!!! WE KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT EACHOTHER!!!#KNOW EACHOTHER BETTER THAN ANYTHING ELSE! NO ONE ELSE WILL EVER BE ABLE TO KNOW US LIKE EACHOTHER #AND WE'RE IN LOVE W EACHOTHER!!WE'RE EACHOTHERS TRUE SOULMATES!!!! NO ONE COULD EVER COME CLOSE TO WHAT WE HAVE #all i want is to hold them close and kiss them and compliment them every single second of the day #i want to hold them close and comfort them as they cry and reassure them of every little thing theyre insecure abt #and tell them over and over that i will love them for all eternity and im never going anywhere... i would lay down my life for them #i would do anything as long as it guaranteed their happiness #IDK HOW TO ACTUALLY EXPRESS THE EXTENT OF MY LOVE FOR THEM CAUSE ITS SO MUCH MORE THAN THE THINGS I SAY #IT FEELS LIKE MY CHEST IS GOING TO BURST I JUST LOVE THEM SO MUCH ITS LIKE I CANT BREATH #i just need to admire them... every little feature of their beautiful faces... and their bodies...#i want to admire them in the softest and most loving way possible as if they would fall apart if i touched them w any slight pressure #i want to lay together w them and for us to just hum songs together softly and start giggling over dumb things #and id love to just work on our latest album together in the studio figuring out the mixing and such #just the mix of music and love and friendship and adventure and fun that is our lives... makes me so happy
