favorite thing about dbd Fandom is seeing people's headcanons of killers hanging out between trials. They're a family to me :,)

interesting details about otto + a few other miscellaneous stuff in season 3’s op and ed (may have vague spoilers)

hello :3 i love yapping so real quick im gonna talk abt some fun stuff i noticed in the op and ed in regards to otto (+ a few other things) under the cut :3 i wont be explicitly mentioning spoilers but i will be alluding to spoilers so read at your own risk!

woo so lets start with these shots from the op!! these are subaru and otto's introduction shots (at least, the first shots focusing solely on them) in the opening - these show off more of the background work in priestella (with the intriguing detail of putting subaru beatrice and garfiel otto in pretty specific places...) but also they do pair subaru and otto off with beatrice and garfiel often in the ed and op.

which makes sense - those are their respective emotional and fighting support blondes with pinkish red outfits!! theyre both pairs who've become closer throughout post arc 4 (and they are paired together often in canon, such as when roswaal in ep1 notes to emisuba to bring ottogarf along with them), though its interesting to note how much these shots of subaru and otto parallel each other. backs turned to the audience - and then they turn around to look at you for a moment with soft, neutral expressions... though while subaru and beatrice hold hands as they usually do, otto stands behind garf.

beatrice and subaru are of course paired again in this shot of the entire emilia camp together, and its fun to note that emisuba and ottogarf are put in paralleling positions here too!! (also i always forget how tall otto is especially with that damn hat until you put him next to his camp members lajdfls) (and, of course, in true rezero fashion both the op and ed loop right around back to the beginning! its seriously so cool to me that they keep doing that.)

speaking of the ed, these shots actually completely slipped my mind the first several times ive watched it - it took me seeing a screenshot of this to finally notice that otto is actually right there, sitting near anajuli. and thats because the ed does a lot to hide otto.

in general, the op and ed both have otto facing his back to the audience a good amount, and hes also the main arc 5 emilia camp member with the least eye catching screentime in the op and ed. which makes sense both bc he doesnt need more screentime than he warrants and also bc he is very much a side character thats well aware that he is a side character. hes the supporting role, the quiet support, and it shows very cleverly in both his writing and screentime. if youre a novel reader youve probably noticed this; the anime does a very interesting job of handling his screentime this season.

so in the ed, the ana camp and emilia camp are paired together, most likely bc of their growing relations and their intertwined interactions from here on out (such as garf and mimi getting paired together, hence extra triplet action in this shot). theres a lot of light and dark interplay in the ed (more on that in a second) and the light catches our eye here, especially with the triplets being the most active players in this scene - emilia sitting outside, the triplets running around which makes you more likely to look at them and less at the right side of the shot.

it's interesting how ana, julius, and otto are put together at the same table here. ana, partially in the light, but ana, julius, and otto are in the shadows here. julius, partially obscured by otto, then otto, partially obscured by plants thatre suspiciously the color of his cloak, along with flowers thatre purple and blue....

then subaru walks on screen, drawing our eye more to the right side, but subaru also overrides otto and julius in the process.....

the ana and emilia camp shots also echo the other camp intro shots in the ed - the priscilla camp + liliana on a boat going underneath a bridge, the shot cutting right to felt and crusch camp right as the shadow passes over pris camp + liliana... and then the crusch camp in shadow, their faces purposefully obscured as felt and reinhard walk towards them, into shadow... and of course, the group pairings here are done very purposefully.

in general like i said earlier, theres a lot of interplay between dark and light in this ed. the establishing shots of priestella, for example, make the contrast stark.

the archbishop shots in the ed go from light to dark, at different points in the day - we see sirius and regulus in daylight (as they made their first appearances in broad daylight), capella at dusk, gluttony at night, and of course, regulus at night again as reinhard and subaru rise up to fight him. sirius and regulus in their daytime shots are purposefully in shadow as well - and the bright white light comes back with subaru's final portion of the ed (calling back to stuff like rezero s1 op and ed 1!).

the ed is also called "nox lux". which...

:)

anyway - emilia and beatrice right next to subaru, ottogarf being put near each other again - its a cute little detail :D !! i love garf's big grin pfft.

and lastly....... of course, we can't forget this blink and you miss it shot from the op.........

[skelevision]

heyyy 🎨 :-) i need to draw

polled my friends in the server too but i also wanna poll here.....

doodles for reference (some of these are really old) and some info on each under the cut........... (sorry if theyre underdeveloped or sound like a 16 yr old made them i have like 100-200 ocs and many of them Are from when i was a teen. not that my ocs are better now though LMAO)

auri: cloned pilot who relies heavily on the support system in his mech for emotional and mental stability (doesnt work). short description but i love this guy i could rant about him for hours (i wont, embarrassing)

calin: stole his mech (starstrider) and deserted in his teens. does whatever now trying to get by. he's uncomfortable outside of starstrider most of the time but when he's not stressed he doesn't mind being outside of it, so long as his harmonizer can still connect. he likes seeing new things. i gave him a big comfy coat thats as hot or cool as he needs it to be because thats my dream. he's in the magic world i have actually

EVE: lab grown pilot who is usually connected to giant genetically identical meat mech ADAM. therin isnt here but hes a biomechanic and hes trying to befriend EVE. i did make them A While Before i watched evangelion if anyones wondering

morgan/knife: idk these guys started as spiderverse ocs but then i remembered i dont rly care about spiderman. theyre on earth after an alien corpse drifted into orbit and the research trips to and from it brought all kinds of freaky diseases to earth and caused something like an apocalypse (altho it also kickstarted space travel). knife was a prototype soldier who escaped the lab in his preteens and met morgan on the road. theyve been travelling together for 8+ years idk knife pair-bonded with morgan so make of that wjhat you will

leo/jinx: work at private anomaly control company. that doodle is really bad. leo has a deal with a faustian anomaly for power and jinx (who i kinda wanna rename) basically just weakly shocks anything he touches. and they kiss. badly ‼️

nettle: (the doodle is from when these were ocs in the sims theyre like. a lot different now) host to parasitic anomalous plant. hes nervous all the time. adoptive brother of end and dating alora. his dad got a government job in the anomaly control sector after nettle was parasitized as a child and taken into govt custody

alora: shes very normal actually. supportive parents and loving household. no special abilities, joined wanting to help people, eventually becomes disillusioned to the reality of anomaly control, especially as a government agency

end: self-proclaimed demon of the void. can eradicate up to about 3 square feet of matter at a time. they dont get along well with people but hit it off with most animals immediately, except dogs. nettle's dad basically adopted them after they met

the homosword (other guy not pictured): ancient weapon with a kind of sentient computer in it (i really gotta redesign the sword i dont rly like it anymore). other dude is a type of human that can both endure very high temps and can get really hot with emotions (to the point of possibly burning to death when something like grief or rage is experienced), lives in what is essentially a country-sized junkyard pretty much constantly on fire with his nomadic people (avoiding the Great Firestorm). finds the sword and uhammmmmm ... adventure (and gay love.......)

daisy: anomalous humanoid creature. hes carnivorous and used by an organized crime group to dispose of bodies. not very well taken care of. he might end up as a side character but i like him a lot. older oc, new doodle so u can see him

[yuukei-yikes]

Vinnie may we have some marry hcs please? I think i kin her and shes been a big fave of mine wah

awesome choice, mary is great!!! sadly i cant rly think of anything i havent already said at one point.... like i love mary, but she's not the character i think of the most

a cute one. since mary doesnt need to eat to survive and i think its rly funny she's only introduced to the concept of eating when moving in with mekatrio, mary cooking.... it would be SO BAD. like this isnt an original hc or anything but like she's rly that bitch creating fires out of NOWHERE.

since her and momo are bfffs and momo's cooking and tastes are. special. they make a lot of abominations together completely unsupervised and it's so bad. do it at momo's house bc both are banned from kido's kitchen and shintaros in his room like Why do i smell burning

i think mary doesnt care for eating and rather enjoys sitting at the table bc she feels included :) mostly wants to cook as a way to show love. eventually gets more into baking than cooking bc its cuter♥️♥️♥️ but everything is always SO nasty you know how it is with baking. its very easy to mess up and everywhere u can mess up, mary messes up. and burns many things.

but she's always looking forward to giving the dan her cupcakes and all that :((( and kido and kano are super prone to teasing but seto is there looking at them like EAT THE DAMN CUPCAKE so theyre like (shiver) then momo wholeheartedly enjoys them because she's insane and the rest is also pretending so hard bc mary seems so excited and she's so sweet. everyone gets sick after

my hcs of her that ive talked abt before include her having a service animal or emotional support animal and its a doggy. bc of her social anxiety and ptsd/hallucinations. and that she and seto are building their own house from scratch like tsukihiko did :3

i also think mary gets her legal identity sorted out post str bc she obviously doesnt have any documents regarding who she is LMAOO and if she's integrating society she's gonna need it... takane helps with this bc. hehe. falsified documents ♥️

setomary are qpp BY THE WAY but are married anyway they elope as soon as theyre 18 bc. idk. partly bc of identity issues with a marriage it makes everything easier for marys documents but also she is so insanely traumatized and seto helps her through EVERYTHING and they love each other so much and seto is like i want to be with you for the rest of my life mary would feel so bad bc... the rest of his life is not the rest of Her life. she knows he will eventually die. and her grandmother's heartbreaking story will just repeat with her but she's gone through so much already but even if mary were to reject seto's love he's just content being by her side and again theyre qpp like setomary is so specific in my mind. theyre both aroace btw♥️ but they get married anyway. bc of reasons.

setomary eloping at 18 super spontaneously and call kido and kano like hey can you come pick us up at the registry office. and kano and kido are like why are you at the registry office. and seto and mary are like erm....

theyre like we NEED this and the dan throws a super improvised wedding and its so silly. ayano wedding planner GONE CRAZY. yknow steven universe There Is An Awful Lot Of Awful Things We Could Be Thinking Of But For Just One Day Let's Only Think About Love. yeah. something like that (ive always wanted to make an animatic of that with kagepro actually...my secret is out) theyre still qpp though. but also married. you get it right.

[shoheiakagi]

Hi, what's up?

So💝💖🌹🌺💌🥀for Dewa and Fujishima cause this two need some attention,please.

And thank you.

Hiii, i’m good! Hope youre doing well! And I wholeheartedly agree - these two need a lot more love. granted, ive had more asks for dewa than fuji for a lot of the ask games i reblogged, but i will never say no to more dewa content

Send me an emoji + a character!

💝 - What's their love language?

Dewa: acts of service and quality time. Dewa is a man of action and prefers to show his love by helping you create an effective budget plan, clean up the apartment before you get back from a long day of work, etc. He’s very serious about spending enough quality time with his partner; a nice little dinner where they talk about their day, watching a true crime documentary, and attending a local jazz concert. But sometimes its the more simple stuff where they’re both in the living room doing their own thing but comforted by each other’s presence

Fujishima: words of affirmation and acts of service. Fujishima is always supportive, encouraging his partner whenever they’re feeling upset or insecure. When his partner texts him about having a rough day at school/work, fuji calls them right away and spends at least 10-15 minutes on the phone with them, knowing the right things to say to cheer them up. He sometimes even picks up their favorite meal and pastry to brighten their day. Fuji is always looking for ways to help out his partner; whether its washing the dishes, taking out the trash, or picking up groceries when he notices theyre out of stock on certain items

💖 - What traits does your muse find physically attractive?

Dewa: he really likes well defined eyebrows; the type that are dark and thick, and you can tell that they’re maintained frequently (those monthly eyebrow waxing/threading sessions!). but he also finds necks very attractive, especially those that are long and slim. It serves as a great contrast to his calloused hands when he wraps them around the neck.

Fujishima: the first thing he notices about someone is their smile. he’s a sucker for gorgeous and vibrant smiles, especially paired with dimples??? our man is in love! fuji also likes a set of small, pouty lips bc theyre fun for kissing 😽

🌹 - If asked to define love what would your muse say?

Dewa: compatibility. The strongest and longest lasting relationships don’t just rely on love, but also on how compatible the people involved are

Fujishima: lifetime commitment. When you’re in love, you’re going to stick through all the bad times, along with the good times

🌺 - Would they be willing to change any part of them for a partner? If not how far would they be willing to go

Dewa: at first, he won’t be very receptive to any feedback that requires him to change. it will hurt his ego a bit and it’ll take him a while to come around. but after taking some time to think things through, he finally opens up to his partner and have a healthy discussion on what their relationship needs and what kind of compromises both parties will need to make so that the relationship lasts

Fujishima: i think it really depends on what he needs to be changed. I don’t think he will ever put an end to certain traits of his, liking rescuing stray and abandoned animals (and humans). But if it comes to concerns like him not receiving a formal education or getting a stable job, i think fuji might be more understanding and probably attend a trade school so that he can land a well paying job without having to go to college

💌 - How would they confess to their love interest? Would they wait on a confession?

Dewa: it takes a while for dewa to realize his feelings and that yes, this is the person he’s been waiting for. He plans an elaborate date, filled with a variety of flowers and accompanied by the most expensive wine he can afford (per kusanagi’s suggestion), to make his confession

Fujishima: Fuji is very perceptive of his emotions, so he’s casual and straight to the point once he realizes his feelings. Its probably when they’re having a little outing at the park, taking a stroll by the pond and feeding the nearby birds, when he casually tells the other person that he has strong feelings for them and would like to take their relationship to the next level. And he has his classic poker face on while making his confession, which makes it a little hard for the other person to understand if he was being serious or not

🥀 - Do they handle breakups well?

Dewa: Answered here

Fujishima: out of all of the younger guys of hmr, fuji is the most emotionally mature. Like for everyone else, breakups are painful and there will be a period of time where he’s hurt, angry, and too exhausted to do anything else. But he quickly puts his focus on other things, like volunteering in the local no-kill animal shelter, carrying out more hmr related missions or spending more time in the bar with the gang, check out a new rock band, practice martial arts, etc. Once he gets busy and focuses on something else, he is able to move on quicker than he expected

[crypt1dcorv1dae]

(sorry this is so fugking long aksjsjshjsjsksbsv) when I originally saw the "gar had pushed himself to get up and functional enough to fight against Deathstroke, but is now shutting down from the physical and emotional trauma of the situation" angle from that recent comic (baby cow gar ftw, I won't stop thinking about it) I thought it would be interesting to have him completely mute and not all there, refusing to turn back human in front of anyone but the people he loves and trusts most (he sits with Vic all the time, curled up as a small creature that can be cuddled until he can be his own form and be tucked under his best friend's protective arm, Kory carries him and he hides in her hair or she floats with him so he can be out of reach when he needs the space and once he's in his human form she sits with him giving him the touch he's so starved of through hand holding and hugs, dick gets to talk to him through his long hours about anything and everything so they both can ground themselves and he surprises them both when he turns back and they just keep going) with Raven he turns into small birds that can perch on her shoulder or longer animals that can drape around her neck (it's winter and she gets cold and he can't be the one letting her lean on him for warmth, he's thinking small because he feels so unsafe, it's why he was small when his parents-) the only time he's taking his own form for longer than a few minutes is to make her tea, giving it to her while she snuggles in one of his hoodies, pressing a grateful kiss to her hair when she doesn't press him to stay that way or talk and they sit together (they do that even when he's feeling better and more anchored in his fragile, fallible, all too human form) Also gar for sure has some form of dissociative disorder (source: I have a dissociative disorder and he's my blorbo) and Raven has anxiety, depression and pretty intense anhedonia as a byproduct of her childhood trauma, so they spend their years of figuring things out before getting together learning to be the best support they can be to each other while they're going through their episodes (hope this all makes sense 😖)

YESSSSSSSSS YES YES YES I LOVE THIS.... HES SO... THEYRE SO... GAH

Also gar having a dissociative disorder so true bestie so true (god knows he has enough trauma to develop one after all, I'd be more surprised if he DIDNT) and nonverbal gar.... yeah.... YEAH..... (im partially nonverbal and that. yeah. good)

luckily if he needs to communicate, he and most of the team know at least enough ASL to get by until he feels ready to talk again, but sometimes even that is too much for him and thats okay too

i love this boy... this poor traumatized man... im gonna make him warm soup and wrap him up in a million blankets and give him a kiss on the head 😭😭😭

I am watching every HiGH&LoW movie back to back and simply allowing my brain to drip out of my ears

Its how I want to go out

I am taking notes for introspection though, to report my findings

[4townlove]

You have any headcanons about Aaron T and TaeYoung's interactions? I just think they r both cuties lol

sure thing! now presenting...

4⭐Town Headcanons: Taeyoung & Aaron T Interactions

when 4Town was first put together, Taeyoung was the first to laugh at one of Aaron T's awkward, cheesy jokes and the sound of his bubbly laughter filling the room really helped to break the ice. they stuck together in the first few weeks of the group being together, Aaron T enjoying someone who seemed to genuinely enjoy his sense of humour and Taeyoung enjoying spending time with someone who helped relax his nerves.

since then, theyve been each others partner in crime. after being the butt of many of T's pranks himself, Taeyoung teamed up with him to prank the others. Aaron T could always rely on Taeyoung to get insider information about Robaire, Jesse and Aaron Z, being able to earn their trust only to relay to Aaron T how best to surprise him and it always paid off. both of them would explode into fits of stomach aching laughter at the other guys being spooked

Taeyoung, after his friendship with Aaron T was quickly solidified after only two months of knowing each other, was giddy to invite him to the animal shelter to show him the doves he nurses. Aaron T is hesitant but for his friend, he is willing to go. though when he does, and theyre greetes by many of the doves frantically flying all over the place, T gets so spooked by a dove flying right for his face that he screams and tries to swat it away, hitting the bird by accident. he didnt mean to, but Taeyoung is hurt by it, partly because Aaron T was scares but also because he brought him here.

they return home in silence, both of them apologising to the other for what happened. its awkward for a few days but when Aaron T shows up at Taeyoungs apartment with takeout, ice cream tubs, balloons and a stack of bad movies to watch, Tae doesnt hesitate to welcome him back.

bad movie nights are a ritual for them for tue years that 4Town soars the charts, and as they continue meeting at each others places with pizza or take out and movies, ths stronger their friendship becomes. Taeyoung opens up to Aaron T ans slowly becomes more confident thanks to his encouragement, and thanks to Taeyoung, Aaron T learns how to prioritise himself, relax and be more vulnerable about his emotions. Taeyoung can rely on Aaron T to always make him smile and Aaron T can always go to Taeyoung to hear exactly what he needs to when he's down or confused or nervous or stressed.

best friends doesnt begin to cover how close they are, supporting each other where they need it most, inseparable pranksters and partners in crime for life

[devildomimagines]

It said requests are open, but feel free to skip over this if need be! The brothers react to an MC that stims a lot? Rocking side to side when theyre nervous or bored, hands flapping when theyre real excited, repeating a word or noise they like over and over, and bouncing on their feet if they gotta stand around or wait for something- things like that? You dont gotta include all of those specific stims of course, those are just ones I already do and gave as an example. I’m a very fidgety person between actual fidgets and stims sjfhfjddj

I know I said that I'm slow at writing but thanks for your patience since I know it took me a while to get to this! IRL got a little hectic for me but I hope this was worth the wait~

The Demon Brothers React to an MC that Stims

Belphegor

Probably the least likely to stim so you might have to clue him in.

He’s also the most stationary of the brothers so he doesn’t understand the need to move around, he’d rather be sleeping.

He does twirl his hair though so you can use that as an example as self-soothing.

If you like the feel and petting of soft things, he has the softest blankets in the house and does not at all mind you rubbing them as he sleeps underneath.

May start buying more soft things for you his bed.

Beelzebub

Can you say oral fixation?

Yes, he’s always hungry and with that, always has something in his mouth. Eventually feels weird when he doesn’t have something in his mouth.

Help a bro out and point him in the direction of chewy fidget tools!

He’s pretty observant with MC so he can definitely tell when you’re fidgeting because of nerves or just because you’re bored.

He’ll just offer a hand to clap with yours or will start rocking in time with you as his way to show support.

Asmodeus

Wasn’t aware of what stimming is but has a moment of “I do that!” when you explain.

If you like smells, Asmo’s your demon. He always has an interesting new scent.

He also has a tendency to catch earworms so you’ll often find him repeating song lines or words.

The two of you have fun repeating back and forth and he giggles when you flap because his heart feels the same!

Only half-heartedly annoyed with your movements if he’s doing your make-up or hair. He could hurt you if the make-up tool came into contact with your eyes or the hot hair styler could burn you, so he’s more worried than anything.

Satan

May be familiar with the terms but appreciates it if you give him examples of stims and the underlying emotions connected to them.

He picks it up quickly and starts to ask about other’s stimming. 

He rubs his chin and you have to laugh that he hasn’t yet realized his own.

Satan knows a lot of fun words so you definitely find yourself repeating words with him.

He gets in trouble when he teaches you swear words in Devilish that you just so happened to repeat in front of Lucifer.

Leviathan

He both knows the most about stimming and does the most as well.

I could totally see if he has hand tics like drumming fingers or clicking pens and his video game controller usually fills the need nicely.

You changed his world the first time he saw you flap your hands in excitement! He immediately adopted it for himself and he loves it! How did he go so long without this?

You both repeat entertaining lines from video games and animes to each other.

If you need a toy or some object to stim with, if he doesn’t already have something, you just have to tell him what part of your body needs the attention and he’ll find you the exact thing to help you out on Akuzon.

Mammon

He’s a leg bouncer for sure! Sitting, standing, doesn’t matter, his legs or feet are moving.

He might not have had the words for it but he gets it.

He’s also perceptive when it comes to you so he intuits when you’re bored or nervous pretty well.

Absolutely beaming the first time he sees your hands flap. You look so happy! And it’s because of him, he made you that happy you couldn’t contain it!

He personally likes the feel of a Grimm in his hand so if you have something that you like holding, he’ll be sure to have a copy or something similar in his pocket if you ever need it.

Lucifer

Picked up on your mannerisms from Day 1.

He didn’t understand totally but it is something that is a part of you so he just accepted it at face value at first.

He was interested to learn that there was a deeper meaning to some things you did that could point to your emotional state.

Once he has that perspective, he realizes that he does it too when he’s drumming his fingers or tapping his foot when irritated.

Then he starts seeing it in his brothers and immediately starts finding things to help them. You’ll find that the HOL becomes a little more bearable when everyone isn’t on edge all the time. Lucifer owes it all to you and will certainly find a way to make it up to you.

[adrienscroissantx]

A list of good underrated brotps (imo)

Alix and nino: (they! Vibe! They have a similar taste in music and nino really digs alixs art and they're both insecure about making a career out of their passions. These are children of the Arts, with artforms that are more misunderstood. They just get each other, and they're going to be in the list of ppl they thank when they win an award for their work later down the line)

Adrien and juleka: (model buds, ok. Adrien supports julekas career and juleka teaches adrien the fine art of ✨ Teenage Rebellion ✨. They also play music together and have fun makeovers. She doesn't force him to be anything or do anything and she doesn't put him on a pedestal, he can be a little more himself around her)

Alya and kim: (a dangerous duo because they talk SO MUCH SHIT. they turn into gossip trains the minute they enter each other's radar. The kind of friendship where, when anybody does something stupid, they look to at each other like a camera on the office ((unless its kim doing something stupid, then alya is forced to break the fourth wall)) )

Rose and kim: (look they get along better than expected and shes the lightest person in class so he can just pick her up and put her on his shoulder and run around. I hc them as unlikely childhood friends who were maybe neighbours and they did a bunch of stupid shit together)

Kim is just a himbo he vibes w wlw coded characters there i said it also alya is bi

Speaking of which

Kim and kagami: (it writes itself. 2 jocks compete, one is arrogant, the others a bit pretentious, but kim just wants to make kagami lighten up a bit and let her know that sportsmandhip can be fun too.)

Max and sabrina: (they were enemies, as kids, every annual science fair event they were situated opposite each other. They become begrudging allies. Now in their late teens, they're just gamer buds who play until 1 in the morning and have random arguments about math and video game lore. They also watch the same tv shows. Absolute nerd out and it shows.)

Max and alya: (look they're both computer kids. Alya codes, max builds, and together they foster the stupidest robot designs they can possibly come up with. They Also just like working together because they can bounce ideas off each other. Max gets alya in the zone, and alya supplies a fresh perspective to maxs issues. Cue nino in the background but instead of being a cool STEM person hes building a tower out of staplers)

Mylene and chloe: (ok i know what ur thinking. What?? But chloe starts getting into activism bc she's fixated on bees and mylene shows her the ropes and she softens chloe while chloe teaches mylene how to harden up. They have a makeover but instead of making mylene glamorous, they dress chloe in Proper Protesting Attire. Also they totally do crimes together when the government process to be useless)

Nathaniel and marinette: (i don't think this is that underrated but just!! They're the true weebs of the grade!! They've been watching sailor moon together since they were kids!! They made their own ocs and drew art of them when they were 12!!! They both watch other anime now but they both have a softness 4 magical girl shows and they're still good art friends to this day "look tokyo mew mew just hits the emotional beats better than Tokyo Ghoul-" )

Ivan and kagami : (theyre the big tough people of the group, nobody mess w them, except when theyre alone together and they faun over their crushes and go to festivals and wear cat ears and ask for outfit advice on dates they're just!!! Wingman and wingwoman they are HOMIES!!! They are talking up their friends to the crush, sprinkling in how they're really cool and nice shirt huh (i picked it mwahahaha). kagami loves the drums n respects the skill needed to play them and ivan thinks fencing is just fucking awesome)

Lila and sabrina (the secret understanding and code, a silent agreement, a sisterhood that only comes from 2 people who used to be horse girls. Only they know what its like. They don't talk about it but they don't need to. They can tell. Don't fuck with them. )

[epicdogymoment]

ok im having thoughts about gintoki leaving in bfy and how it (and what happens afterwards) affects the people around him (mostly shinpachi, kagura, hijikata, and sougo)

starting with the yorozuya kids. in the future timeline, their last interaction with gintoki is at the cinema, where he disappears and never comes back. they eventually find his notebook with his notes about the white plague and hes presumed dead. shinpachi and kagura attempt to move forward with the yorozuya, but disagreements over how it should be run drive a rift into their relationship and the two separate (in what is essentially a “succession dispute”). in an attempt to fill the void left by gintoki, they take up his belongings (lake toya for shinpachi and his kimono for kagura) and discard their previous character traits to become “dependable” characters befitting of the protagonist role in a typical anime.

even at this point in the series, this isnt the first time that the yorozuya has been “disbanded” (in fact, both times happened within the first 10 volumes, in the amnesia arc and the umibozu arc) but it is the first, and only, time that theres so much animosity between the kids. and honestly? its not all that surprising. in the amnesia arc, gintoki tells the kids to leave the yorozuya and do their own thing, and gintoki himself leaves too, but gintoki is still there, even if hes not “himself”, and theres still the possibility that he could come back. also, they know exactly what happened to him and why he left. there isnt the pressing need to succeed him and carry on with the yorozuya because hes still there, and how could they even try to continue without him? they feel lost without him, but theres still the small possibility that they could still reform and everything will be ok (and it is, eventually) and its enough to keep kagura waiting in the broken remains of the yorozuya.

in the umibozu arc its the arrival of kaguras dad (and gintokis own deep-seated insecurity, which is arguably the driver of his decision in the amnesia arc too) that triggers his decision to fire kagura and leads to the fracturing of the yorozuya. of course, shinpachi walks out on gintoki since it basically seems like hes being needlessly selfish and cruel towards kagura. in the end, gintoki goes to save kagura anyway, which ends up drawing them all closer together once its all over, and further solidifies their status as a Family. gintoki (supposedly) gets it through his thick skull that hes important to these people, goddamn it. theres no real tension between the kids since its All Gintokis Fault, and there isnt a need to continue the yorozuya either since, yknow, fuck that guy.

gintokis disappearance in be forever yorozuya hits especially hard because its just that. a disappearance. (unlike the amnesia arc or umibozu arc or even the silver soul arc) the kids have no idea where hes gone or why until they find that notebook, and they didnt even realise that he was gone until days after he first left. they have no solid proof as to what actually happened to him or whether hes coming back (though theyre pretty sure hes not). and as a father figure to these two kids with absent/dead parents? his sudden disappearance hits extra hard. all that combined with the white plague situation going on outside leads to some Intense Emotional Anguish for these kids (kids! theyre children!) who no longer have anyone to guide them.

now that gintoki is gone, as the other two members of the yorozuya and as his kids, they feel a duty to both uphold the name and succeed him, but in his absence and in the circumstances of the time their efforts are uncoordinated and their clashing directions eventually transform them from the yorozuya family to two rival yorozuya who both struggle to fill the their idea of void that gintoki left behind. 

(gonna take a little detour because god these kids love gintoki so much. even if they pretend not to most of the time, they still see the yorozuya and gintoki not only as workplace and employer, but home and family. as something to come back to everyday. as something to protect and be protected by in turn.)

as the time since his disappearance stretches on and otae falls ill too, the situation only continues to worsen and worsen for both of them. they no longer feel like they can turn to each other for support, and gintoki (safety, stability, constancy, home) is long gone with no hope of returning. even worse, because gintoki suffered from obnoxious protagonist syndrome and had to poke his nose into every little situation in edo, nearly everything is a painful reminder of what theyve lost. from the abandoned yorozuya gin-chan to the destroyed streets of kabuki-cho and even each other, everything is a painfully twisted and distorted version of what once was, with no chance of returning to how it was before. honestly? it seems as though kagura and shinpachi arent protecting edo as it is now, but the ghost of what edo was before. they desperately cling to the memory of sakata gintoki’s edo.

rainbow high but they each have distinct and varying styles

hi im putting my Disscusion under the post cause ik lots of ppl just wanna rb the art but also i have Thoughts

-ruby’s style is the strongest in the series imo. they designed a butch lesbian and nobody told them ig. my only slight change was giving her cowboy boots cause if shes from “the country” then she should... actually... look like shes from the country. maybe its just cause i grew up in nc but i would love some southern rep from a character where being from the south isnt their whole Personality. anyways i think she should wear western style button downs is all im trying to say

-bella... her style is ALL over the place. since she is a set designer i wanted to make her a theatre kid!!! her style is somewhere in the 40s/50s zone of vintage inspired so that way she has a definite Range of styles and silhouettes to choose from! im a sucker for the new look bc its so Shapes but i could also see her pulling off some long wool circle skirts and peasant top blouses! i also gave her some hearing aids and braces which you can probably only see if you zoom in dhjnf

-poppy got the biggest design overhaul of anyone. i kept the butterfly theme and nothing else fbhdjd. since her music has some definite funk energies i wanted to give her a 70s inspired look with some glam platforms and denim overalls! i think we deserve bellbottom pantsuit poppy. i also changed her hair bc literally the rh main cast all have practically IDENTICAL hair styles save for the direction theyre parted in. i wanted to give her those anime butterfly headphones but toned down slightly hdsjdnd oh and! shes also wearing glasses bc once again we get a whole cast of characters and not one of them is wearing glasses like smh literally like half of all ppl wear glasses?? anyways in terms of personality i wanted to keep her bubbly but instead of just making music thru like Divine Inspiration i think she should take a more realistic and nuanced approach!! show her nerding out abt music theory and talking about the themes her pieces represent and the stories they tell

-sunny’s design is Mostly the same! her hair is slightly changed, i wanted it to match the cover she drew for winnerz! i also made the rainbows on her outfit pride flag colors, and gave her some button pins on her jacket! every Token Anime Kid ive ever met has buttons plastered all over their bags and jackets and its a nice touch that gives her some more Character i feel

-jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaade. jade. i wish she had kept her dark lipstick. and also that she wasnt just billie eilish. and that she was the token goth of the group. her stitched up shirt is inspired by a shirt i wore in high school! it was from the 90s and SUPER beat up to the point where it was literally disintegrating so i just sewed up any new holes that would form with contrasting thread it was a Look. i hc her as wearing contacts bc when she tried wearing glasses she got upset that she couldnt show off her makeup as much gvhbnf! i also gave her a spider necklace bc i think she should still like spiders BUT i HATE the jokes abt “therapy tarantulas” bc only dogs and like 10 horses can actually be service animals and the whole thing w people lying about their untrained dogs/cats (or worse, exotic animals that they should not even own) being service/therapy/emotional support animals just so they can bring them in public is!! Really Bad!! and it hurts people who actually do need service dogs bc untrained dogs are well. untrained and set a bad example for how service animals will actually act! and owners who print out fake certifications also make it harder for disabled ppl bc it leads to store owners thinking that theres some sort of paper they can ask the owner to flash to prove the service dog is trained when that. is not actually true and theres no such thing as an actual certificate for this. if a service dog company offers a certificate/card/whatever to show authority it is specifically for disabled people to do when faced with this issue and has no actual official meaning. and ANOTHER thing that bothers me abt this joke is that.. Therapy For What? it would be really cool to see a canonically mentally ill character as a protagonist for a doll line! it would be fantastic to see them opening up that conversation for neurodivergent kids and their parents! but we have no indication for that at All just haha funy therapy spider :| anyways jade is an nd lesbian my canon now

-skyler is punk now! shes a fashion major and i think it would be a really interesting character to explore, someone who is shy but dresses really flashy and tough! i also changed her theme material from denim to the blue leather she wears at the party bc im biased towards alt fashion. her hair was really fun to design, with a big Cloud of Fluff at the top and long braids underneath bc get it!! its Rain Cloud Shaped :] i dont have much else to say bc this design is def in my Comfort Zone of styles. anyways we stan andershaw here they literally are in love

-vi vi! i didnt change much bc i dooooooont really know that much about influencer/mainstream fashion tbqh... i Did give her That One Halter Top Style that literally 2 other of the main characters are both wearing instead of a loose 1 piece dress tho. i also decided she should be into holographic fabric bc its very Sleek and Future Is Now and Influencercore. i also think the sleek tight fitting holo shirt/skirt is a good contrast to Big Fluffy Fur Jacket. she also has a prosthetic leg idk i just thought it would be a good Touch 

overall rh def has some MAJOR problems with diversity in all aspects and it shows in their fashion design as well! if you put the characters in black and white save for a few patterned pieces they would all be interchangeable and i honestly think that its representative of the larger problem! maybe i do follow the monster high design philosophy that every piece should only make sense on the character its from, but the fact that they cant even diversify FASHION despite it being a Fashion Doll Brand really Says It All.

[just-like-playing-tag]

aaaaaaa okay i just watched the new episode and im so curious about how theyre going to handle the rest of this arc? you always have really good takes so i was wondering what your thoughts were!! bunkerman is such an important character in this part of the story, it seems like they cant cut him out entirely????so where is he!!!

~ Sorry for the late answer, I kept procrastinating writing my thoughts because I knew this would have turned out to be long ahah ~

Thank you for the compliments, I'm flattered!!! Tho I doubt I will be of great help, I feel like I'm lost at sea ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But I'll do my best!!!

First of all, I'd want to point out that, as of now, I'm confident they will not cut Bunkerman and Goldy Pond off the plot. Goldy Pond is a strong and solid arc that I'm sure received a positive response from SJ readers while it was on going; once it's animated, the anime will be completed of the action that has so far been lacking. As for Bunkerman, in the Shounen Jump's tpn popularity polls he earned 16th and 7th place, which makes me think he's fairly popular. His presence adds a very nice twist to the plot: not only he's the first male adult we see; even though he doesn't side with demons, he's still hostile to the children, which comes off as very surprising to the reader / watcher (and builds up to how Andrew and later the whole Ratri clan will persecute them, introducing the aspect that not all humans on the outside are their friends). Additionally, he is the first character to help build up the theme that Emma is not only going to help her friends and family, but also her enemies, which puts the basis of her character development and her decision to save all the demons and mamas. Moreover: how people have already pointed out, Bunkerman has also a very important role as representing the “what-if” version of the children, as showed in chapter 177:

His character has a very poignant role, as he's revealed to have a very tragic backstory: his story consolidates the cruelty of the world they live in, which is a main theme of tpn, and the way it's ultimately revealed how the children saved his life and gave him the chance to start living again comes to the viewer as extremely moving.

To sum up, he's too much of a great character to be omitted- they're not going to have all that great potential go to waste. His character development and personal growth is too powerful to be thrown away, and I refuse to believe they will (I'm going through chapter 109 again after a long time and I'm getting a little emotional :')

So next up is when we're going to see him, right? I doubt it is going to be soon. My guesses are that he'll show up either in the second half of the season, or even at the very end as teasing for an eventual following season.

The conditions in which the children have found the shelter unsettle me. The shelter confuses me so much, because things simply don't add up. If Bunkerman and his friends have already been there, then why Minerva's letter is still hanging there, unopened. On the opposite, if they have never been there, then that doesn't explain the cookies, which are a clear wink to manga readers, nor the scratched room. I'm confused, because these elements just aren't coherent with each other, and that makes me uneasy. I'd exclude that the Glory Bell escapees didn't open the letter, or that a Minerva supporter came back and placed a new one, but then again those elements really don't make any sense? Any that I can understand anyway- I hope they'll come up with a good explanation in the next episosodes.

Back to why I don't think Bunkerman will show up in the next episodes: several elements from the shelter make me think that. The most evident is obviously the rotten cookies. If he's just out hunting, and he usually lives in the shelter, then I don't see why he would keep those moldy biscuits (if not to commemorate his comrades? Dunnot). Besides, the shelter as for how it's been displayed seems to have not been inhabited for a long time: all the crockery was neatly placed; besides from the biscuits, there was not a single hint of people living or having lived there like the food we saw in the manga- if there had been, the children would have surely noticed. Again, that confuses me. Everything is perfectly tidy and clean, making it more similar to the untouched, neat shelter the Glory Bell escapees found when they arrived there for the first time- except for a conveniently scratched room? Isn't that weird that the room and the biscuits are the very only hint that somebody has been there before? But I'm digressing.

Other things that make me think Bunkerman is not going to show up: the children are learning everything on their own. There won't be Bunkerman to show them the armory, to talk about the limited resources and stuff. I believe that them finding about all these things on their own is a further proof that the kids aren't going to meet him soon.

I don't know how the children are going to meet Bunkerman. I'll be frank, I'm very worried, because for the way the children meet Bunkerman to be as it is is of great importance for his character and character development; I worry to make them meet in a different context is likely to have negative consequences to his character growth.

Shifting back to Goldy Pond, I don't think we're getting there any time soon either? There was no hint to A08-63 in the letter. My personal guess is that the "Poachers" skretch was replaced with "help" because we're not getting any poacher this season, and they didn't want to introduce so early an element that is not going to be explained in this season. Of course "Minerva" could reveal it in their phone call- but then why not mention it at all in the letter, besides from ending the episode with a cliff hanger? Furthermore: would it make sense to introduce Goldy Pond before Bunkerman? Goldy Pond wouldn't be the same without him- besides the fact that it would be hard to integrate the story of Lucas and the other Glory Bell escapees, this is a friendly reminder that it's Bunkerman to both break Lewis' mask and later kill him.

Now, as for my personal guess? I think the children are going to leave the shelter and look for Minerva. First of all, that would explain why, in the opening, everyone has the go-out-shelter-coats:

That's the outfit Emma, Ray and later Gilda and Don wear when going out; it's an outfit we never saw the younger children wear in the manga. Another reason why I think that all the children are going to leave together is because it's the only way to protect them: they still can't be sure the shelter is a safe place (the manga reveals it isn't), so they can't leave the children alone in it. In the manga, they divide in two groups: Emma, Ray and Bunkerman leave the shelter, and Gilda and Don would have stayed to keep the children safe. For how things are in the anime, this becomes a problem. Let's say they decide to leave the shelter (and like, they will, otherwise the plot can't move on lol): Emma and Ray can't leave on their own, without Bunkerman to both guide and protect them; at the same time, they can't leave with the support of Gilda and Don, for that would mean leaving the children alone in the shelter. It's not only because leaving a group of less then nines alone would normally not be a good idea (these children are very smart, so maybe they'd manage to go on?), but they can't really know if the shelter will continue being a safe place: only because the demons haven't found it so far, that doesn't mean they can be sure they won't find it at some point; additionally, for what they know poachers are still after them. That's why I think the most logic progress of events will be for the children to leave the shelter together. Which, even though I stand for what I've said... Sounds like a very bad idea??? Not only the children keep travelling in this demon world- they also don't have weapons besides from bow and arrow? That's why I find the armory being empty one of the most senseless things- of course I want the children to be safe, but for the children to survive in demon forests completely unarmored sounds extremely unrealistic. I just hope they aren't going to kill one of the "irrelevant children" to prove how dangerous the world is, that would destroy me.

(I'm Chris.)

Ok, I think I covered everything! Thanks for asking! Let's hope together they won't mess this up for us :))

[oookaline]

DO I THINK THEYRE GONNA PULL A YOI? FUCK YEAH WHY? LEMME EXPLAIN

first of all lemme already say that im drinking im emotional and im having a collective breakdown over the new sk8 episode and yoi anygays aight.

the Hetbaiting in Yoi was *Clap* on point *clap*

We had from yuri’s side:

- the “love intrest”

- the “childhood friends”

- the fckn “I always knew you could and I believed in you”

- the you can come to me anytime im here for you (with the skate ring shit sight)

and from Victors side:

- The main dance thing right, boy x girl

thats about all i can remember right now but thats enough because having his coreography inspired by lets say a girl enchanted by a boy and the whole randevous thing right is enough to make people think hrs talking about a past relationship EVEN THO HE WAS AND WE KNOW IT WAS YURI BUT STILL

the Het baiting here is phenomenall.

And thats were we go to sk8 the infinity now.

the new episode has us seeing Reki looking at a girl and shit right- while Langa is right there.

In basis both Langa and Reki joke with erach other in this, so aswell as both showing little (almost no intrest from Langa’s side) its still there and its something.

Now we see their relationship since episode one as the “bEst friends always for each other spend 24/7 toguether that we’re fuckng mirrowing each other now” ind of thing which is supported by the last few episodes.

In this one we have the “Stinky” scenes episode ago we has the food sceneand shit which tells us how much they’re with each other.

Along with that we can see how confortable they’re with each other (them scaping from those things in ep 6 and langa and reki getting toguether and shit)

WHICH btw is a direct mirror of what Adam did with both of them.

Now the difference between what Adam did and what Langa did with Reki is literally the person i dont need to explain it do i no i dont.

back to what I was talking about, the anime is literally laying down the path for Reki to being canonically bisexual with unnamed boy and that girl.

BUT right, BUT, with that boy they never explicidly said anything about more than very good friends (to the point where Reki becomes “paranois” of losing someone else to Adam, thus he asks Langa to not compete and shit) so thick headed people can still say its “just a friendship” and that he’s as straight as a plank (even tho rainbow thingui on he boys med room says otherwise) 

So not only are they laying the bisexual ground on reki they’re also Hetbaiting help ??! 

Because with that girl, they explicidly said “you think shes cute” and “you dont have a chance with her” and we got Reki going after her and shit which I think its hillarious

But anywasy what i think is that the anime will have probably 12-16 episodes and shit will happen after the 10th or 11th one where we will see the title screen play out and reki going after Langa and shit.

Im scared :>>

[ifdragonscouldtalk]

Hey, idk if you’d want to, but id love to hear more of bones and spock with their emotional support animals if you have any more thoughts on it. Have a great day!

I ABSOLUTELY want to (sorry it took a few days, its finals week)

Bones' guinea pig and Spock's cat get along very well but theyre both wary of Jim's service dog. They often lay together purring up a storm, watching their humans argue or watch tv or cook or whatever Spock and Bones do together. At first, the two only hang out because theyre the only individuals with ESAs on the ship and neither will admit it but it makes them both feel so worthless, two executive officers who need emotional support. Jim's service animal doesn't count, the dog is a symbol of how strong he is to have survived what he did; they're just weak to need support. Neither one of them thinks the other is weak for needing an ESA, just themselves.

When they notice their ESAs like each other, Bones asks Spock to hang out more often, because guinea pigs are social creatures and really need a herd but Starfleet would only allow him one. Spock hates having people mess with his cat because he's terrified the cat is going to end up liking someone else better and start to hate comforting him but he sees the logic in making sure Bones' ESA has someone to hang out with so they end up spending more and more time together.

Since Bones' cavy is a silky, he loves grooming his herd. Normally Bones is pretty good about keeping him away from his hair, but Spock's cat has no such compunctions. The first time Bones' guinea grooms away chunks of the cat's fur until it looks like a patchy mess, Bones starts laughing so hard he can't even get the air to apologize and Spock wants to be upset but Bones' laugh is so joyful and warm he almost smiles himself

The first time Spock holds the guinea pig and he just snuggles down into his chest and starts purring he almost cries. It's interesting to see the same reaction in Bones the first time the cat sits in his lap
