#the yotsuba group

[dicenote]

Broke: L's idea for Matsuda to do a "drunk" walking handstand on the balcony was a needlessly complicated, but unintentionally funny plan to help him escape the Yotsuba group.

Woke: L just told Matsuda to pretend to be drunk and walk off the balcony. Matsuda added the handstand himself because a) top-tier bit commitment, and b) it helped him sell his fake identity. Later, when Matsuda appeared on Sakura TV, Higuchi assumed that "Taro Matsui" was an ex-performer with a stage name and not a detective simply because he was able to do that trick.

Bespoke: It actually was part of L's plan for Matsuda to do a handstand, for a very specific reason. By doing a handstand, Matsuda was able to get a look over at the balcony below him without anyone noticing him glancing down that way. This means that he was able to aim for the mattress before throwing himself off the balcony, and the Yotsuba group was none the wiser. Also, the Latin chanting in the anime was 100 Percent Necessary, too.

date with a serial killer

pft, i once said i want to draw higuchi with every yotsuba man so here we go? i like drawing scenes because you can interpret them and create a story, but i'm so bad at bgs (￣▽￣)

higuchi was supposed to be smiling at first, but i liked this version more. looks more uncanny. alt ver under the cut vvvv

Never not spreading my namido friends with benefits propaganda

Reading the manga itself for the first time, and there’s so much to this yotsuba page… Namikawa went to Harvard?? Hatori is the illegitimate son of Yostuba’s president?????

(closeups under the cut)

How do you even post here???

Anyways, I've made some silly Yotsuba (mostly Mido ❤️) doodles in the past months so here they go

if light yagami isn't virtue signalling so effectively he shines as bright as the moon then thats not light yagami.

spin-off series that’s just an Office-style sitcom but with the yotsuba group

[fndmfrenzy]

what if instead of killing people yotsubas met for mahjong every friday.

namikawa - he's good at shogi so how about another japanese game. good at bluffing and reading people's waits. he'll riichi a crap hand and force everyone to fold. somehow always gets multiple dealer repeats

higuchi - decent. he gets really tilted especially when his hand is good but hatori wins with tanyao nomi. hates folding. acts really annoying and condescending when he rons someone

takahashi - higuchi invites him so he isn't the worst. barely knows the rules so he keeps getting hit with chombo

shimura - good at defense, but folds too often. the only one to score a yakuman.

hatori - calls a lot, which annoys higuchi. his wins are usually cheap. once he opens his hand too much he can't defend so he often deals in

ooi - never opens his hand, usually wins big (mangan+)

kida - always plays to his outs even if it means sacrificing value. trusts suji too much and gets ronned by mido

mido - always chooses evil waits, so people will deal into him (suji, honors). often stays in damaten

skill level

best: namikawa, mido, ooi

decent: higuchi, shimura, kida

bad: hatori, takahashi

I love how much you love Higuchi! He needs wayyy more content (all the yotsuba group does)

Aw, I'm happy to hear that :^) Yotsubas are pretty niche but I like seeing stuff with them... Since it's on topic I'll share this drawing (I feel like it was cooler in my head so I never posted it)

[dont-call-me-algernon]

Once every few months I go back to rotating in my mind ideas for a fic in which Shimura’s guilt over the whole Yotsuba Kira situation manifests as hallucinations of Hatori.

Until I manage to turn it into something with a semblance of plot here’s the abridged version
