TETRO IS SO AMAZING OMG OMG I NEED TO KNOW ALL YOUR OPINIONSSSSSS

AHHHHH YESSS OFC ANON I LOVE YAPPING ABOUT TETRO… so um SPOILER WARNING UP TO CHAPTER 2 (to date this, the last updated episode was yanagi on thin ice)

okay first of all if it’s not obvious by now i LOVE kamimura and hasegawa. genuinely when i first watched their interviews and their prologue thing they were my favs and then i saw them first interaction in the late night talk episode (pretty sure that’s the one?) and i was absolutely locked in. they are amazing, hasegawa is so pathetic yet so capable, i love a king who has a bunch of useless ass trivia and chemistry knowledge (they’re both chem nerds and that makes me so happy auauahsjsjs). i love kamimura so much ugh his dialogue is the best lmaooo. chapter 1 almost break up arc w them made me so emo don’t even, but it’s okay cause the first episode of chapter 2 made up for it completely!!!

i think a lot of their development is gonna be kamimura learning that some people just want to help out of genuine love and care and not thinking he’s incapable, while hasegawa learns to step back sometimes bc yk boundaries and maybe even make his own??

istg they keep attacking kamimura with these motives im constantly expecting the worse to happen. it hurts having to watch him be so tired n shit and knows he needs help but also doesn’t want to have that help bc it makes him feel weak. it’s completely understandable where he’s coming from, and while i don’t have anything similar to him, i understand the want to not have to depend on help bc it just makes you feel worse. even so, hasegawa-i care about you-ken saying he wants to bc he wants to make it easier is so UAHAHSH he just loves you bro im waiting for him to say it (not) straight up. also the salvation game where they hyped each other up was the best moment in the entire fangan talk to wall.

hiroaki is one of my favs now he’s grown on me so much. the contrast of him essentially giving the closing argument & being all proud and confident about it and then him crying his eyes out talking to ojima. he’s such a good example of what this fangan has been doing great at so far, and that’s making everyone feel so human!!! im excited to see what’s next for him!

chiba’s whole motivation during chapter 2??? im gagged omfg, that fight with hama was insane she feels so much pressure to get them all out and rightfully so! i would too in her place but ugh she’s stressing herself out too much and the gas is making it 10x worse…

i think one of the themes is about strength and how bc of different traits and issues, many people are assumed to be weaker, like ojima’s ptsd and sa history, kamimura’s cataplexy and other health issues, and chiba being a smaller person in general; while all these are going to forever be apart of them, it doesn’t mean that they are incapable or weak, and they should absolutely not be treated as such. these traits bc all others can see of a person rather than seeing them as full fledged people and im so glad that this is a message the developers of tetro have been able to spread.

yeah that got pretty oops hope you were okay with this whole ass wall of yapping (and that’s not even half of my thoughts)!! tysm for the req anon i had so much fun!!!

Ad-Live 2022 [Day Session] - Chiba

Premise: Producer named Harada (Enoki) is tasked with ensuring the success of live advertisements, but doesn't have the data to do so. Emilio (Shimazaki) is an isekai'd mage looking for his hero. He believes the hero's soul has reincarnated into Harada. Jeremiel (Aramaki) is an angel looking for a lost object–an angel's notebook. Suzumura is the higher-up who checks on them. Harada must enlist in the help of these two to achieve at least 25% viewership in the advertisement broadcasts.

Official preview video [here] / Night Session [here]

Some Funny parts & Ending below cut!

[ KEYS: E = Enoki Junya / N = Shimazaki Nobunaga / M = Aramaki Yoshihiko (or Mackey) / S = Suzumura Kenichi ]

---- ---- ----

S: (roleplaying) You mage, I order you to help your Hero to make the broadcast a success.

N: (dramatic kneel) Of course, great king!

S: And you angel, help this Hero do the same.

M: (elegantly haughty, serious) Only GOD may command me.

---- ---- ----

N: (passionate speech about how the Hero he knew reincarnated into this world, and is now E. N will follow E to the ends of the earth and beyond to help E.)

E: (ad-lib cue) Eh does that mean we're just friends?

---- ---- ----

N: (confidence of a queen) The word 'ki' stands for "kiss which tastes like my Hero"!

E: (blushing very red, small voice) Why do you have to be so embarrassing?

M: (laughing manically)

---- ---- ----

N: (passionate speech about never forsaking his Hero, no matter what world they're in, no matter what bodies their souls inhabits) M: (nods solemnly, breaks character, starts laughing uncontrollably)

---- ---- ----

M: And what's your name, Hero? E: (bluescreens) Hero… JuNNya... [*sureeeee Enoki Junya, sureeee]

---- ---- ----

S: (confused after entering stage) Um...Angel-san? Where're your wings?

M: Oh these? Er... I took them off! Because they were so hot in my... my cosplay costume.

---- ---- ----

Ending: Jeremiel is revealed to be an angel possessed by a demon. The notebook he's searching for is like a Death Note–only it makes people do embarrassing things for a price. Emilio banishes the spirits of the demons with a holy sword from the other world. Harada pretends to be both the Hero and the Demon King to smooth out the situation and continue the broadcast. Both Jeremiel and Emilio are confused, but Emilio feels especially betrayed. The advertisement broadcast viewership finally meets target, success! Emilio gets a phone call from the real "Hero" he's always been looking for.

Maid Cafe on Electric Street coming to consoles - Gematsu

“Console versions” of Maid Cafe on Electric Street are in development, publisher PLAYISM and developer Adventurer’s Tavern announced. Specific platforms were not announced.

The adventure game was previously announced as launching for PC via Steam this summer—but that window has passed and new release timing has yet to be confirmed by PLAYISM.

The PC version of Maid Cafe on Electric Street will be playable at the Konami booth at Tokyo Game Show 2024, which will run from September 26 to 29 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba, Japan.

Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:

About

Maid Cafe on Electric Street is a leisurely maid cafe adventure set in the otaku haven of Nipponbashi, Osaka The protagonist of our story quits his job at an extremely toxic workplace and finds himself at a run-down maid cafe tucked away in a quiet part of Nipponbashi. There, he meets the maid Shiro. One thing leads to another, and he eventually gets appointed as the temporary cafe manager and put in charge of the management of the maid cafe. As the new manager, his first task is to scout cute girls to work at the cafe. Time to explore Nipponbashi and all the otaku stuff it has to offer!

Get to know the four unique main girls: Shiro, Miyu, Favna, and Honoka, all voiced.

Immerse yourself in lighthearted stories about everyday life with the cute maids.

Enjoy the modern and gorgeous pixel art graphics depicting even the finest details, including the meat buns next to the convenience store cashier and the figures on the shelves of an anime shop.

Go on fun dates at Nipponbashi, from anime shops to arcades to the cinema!

The Four Main Girls of Fuwa Fuwa

Shiro – “Um, please be the new manager of the cafe!” A maid who loves Fuwa Fuwa Cafe. A huge otaku for anime and video games, she talks really fast when she’s gushing about the things she loves, and often splurges on merch without thinking whenever she visits an anime shop. A little clumsy, but works hard every day to become the cute maid she’s always wanted to be.

Miyu – “Hey Mr. Manager, thanks a bunch for hanging out with me today~☆” A game otaku and gyaru with a big appetite. Loves both eating and cooking, and apparently really enjoys serving her cooking to customers at Fuwa Fuwa Cafe. Is actually Shiro’s friend on the online game Magic Angel, so they knew each other before actually meeting in real life.

Favna – “I am the Slayer of the False God, the Queen of the Kingdom of Darkness, the All-Seeing Oracle, the Guardian of the Dream of All Things—“ A mysterious girl dressed in gothic Lolita fashion. Speaks in riddles and demands the protagonist become her familiar. She sometimes accidentally drops the edgy act when she’s taken by surprise though, so maybe she’s just got a serious case of chuunibyou…?

Honoka – “Ya want a thrivin’ business? That there sounds like a job for our shrine!” A girl with a Kansaiben dialect who works as a shrine maiden at her family shrine. Practically in charge of the shrine, she is reliable and very good at handling money, and has a strong sense of responsibility to boot. On top of that, she’s also the only glasses girl at Fuwa Fuwa Cafe!

Support Your Maid Cafe Employees as the Manager

As the cafe manager, it’s your job to allocate work to your maids. Make sure to give the right girl the right job! For example, Shiro is always enthusiastic to serve customers, and Miyu is great in the kitchen. Of course, you can’t just sit there while they work. During opening hours, you’ll also have to make coffee and help out on the floor, so it’s not as easy as it sounds!

The Stunning Sights of Nipponbashi

In order to recreate the atmosphere of the real Nipponbashi, the game features several real stores you can find there, such as Surugaya, Sofmap, Dragon Star, Super Potato, and Karaoke Rainbow, among many others. Don’t forget to pay them a visit when you’re shopping or taking one of your maids on a date!

Collectable Capsule Toys

If you’ve been to the real Nipponbashi, you’ll know that there are capsule toy machines all over the area. In this game, you can also try your hand at collecting your favorite capsule toy series and experience that unique gacha thrill of not knowing what you’re getting. As you collect more toys, you can even bring them up in conversations with the girls. Keep cranking those machines until you’ve collected them all!

the man himself!! i feel like kei's vd and mv are a little bit underwhelming compared to what the second pair had, but it was kinda intentional in a way. like yeah, he's fun and cool and already had a very dark past before milgram, but also.. he's just a guy. a very scared one too.

Warnings for Kei's VD: heavy implications of physical torture.

Warnings for Kei's MV: toxic relationship dynamics, violence and physical torture.

(sounds of footsteps)

Miki: So.. It's Kei-san's turn now.

Miki: "If Eiji-san doesn't join us now.. I don't think he will join us at all."

Hinode: He's.. quite an interesting prisoner, isn't he?

Hinode: I'm not sure if I should be scared or excited about being able to talk to him in person. 

Miki: But you have talked to each other even before this interrogation..

Hinode: Well, yes, but we haven't really talked about his crime, you know?

Hinode: In fact.. He really doesn't like to talk about his crime. Wonder why..

(the door opens)

Kei: Oh, you two are finally here! Hiiiii~

Kei: *sighs* It's so sad that my poor little brother is still not here with you.. But oh well, guess I can't do anything about that.

Miki: Um, Kei-san, this might be a weird question, but..

Miki: Are you sure you don't know anything about Eiji-san? Like.. Maybe you know where he is now? 

Miki: Or.. If he's even alive.

Kei: ...

Kei: Miki, sweetie, could you please not joke about that? 

Miki: T-this wasn't supposed to be a joke-

Kei: I'm sure Eiji is still alive! I mean.. He has to be alive.

Miki: But.. What if he's not? What if something happened to him? What if Milgram sees him as a failure now?..

Kei: Hm...

Kei: Well.. I'll just kill everyone here probably then. 

Miki and Hinode: ...

Kei: Hey, come on, you could've at least pretended to act more shocked!

Miki: Sorry. We already had two prisoners say that they will either kill everyone here or just kill Eiji-san, so.. 

Miki: You're not really that original.

Kei: .. Someone is planning to kill Eiji?

Miki: A-anyway, we're not here to talk about that. 

Miki: Kei-san.. Are you feeling better now that you've been voted innocent?

Kei: .. Ah, haha, yeah.. I'm definitely feeliing better now.

Kei: My body doesn't hurt as much anymore, there's a possibility that my eye injury will get better, I got this cool new outfit.. Yeah, life is going great.

Miki: I see.. That's good to hear.

Kei: But still.. I'm just a little curious about something.

Kei: So like.. Why innocent? Why have you changed your mind so suddenly?

Kei: Is it because of my video or something? Hey, can I watch it-

Miki: W-we still don't know if the prisoners can watch their videos and if they're allowed to do so.

Miki: But.. Your second video showed that your murder went.. Not like we expected.

Kei: .. What is that supposed to mean-

Hinode: It's like.. I'd say you looked more like a victim there, Kei-san.

Kei:!

Hinode: It's like, if we didn't know you're one of the prisoners, we'd probably think you were the one who got killed.

Miki: It.. really was painful to watch.

Miki: "I wonder what would Eiji-san think if he watched this video with us.."

Kei: .. I-I see, haha.. So, what do you think about my murder now? Have you like, figured it out yet?

Miki: Kei-san.. Why can't you just tell us about it?

Kei: Huh?

Miki: Some of the other prisoners are completely okay with talking about their crime, like Chiba-san or Yoshioka-san. Some of them refuse to tell us anything because they believe they were in the right and don't see it as a crime, like Maruyama-san. Some of them don't want to tell us anything because they possibly feel guilty or ashamed, like Yano-san. 

Miki: So I just want to know.. Which one of these are you? You're definitely not the first one, so..

Miki: And something is telling me you're the third type.

Kei: .. A-are you sure you're allowed to just talk about other prisoners and their crimes like that, haha-

Miki: Sorry, Kei-san, but I'm the guard here. And I believe I am allowed to do that.

Kei: Woah~ Haha, okay, okay, Guard 002-san, I won't ask any dumb questions anymore.

Miki: So.. Why don't you just tell us already? We know that you had five victims. All of them were women. They were somehow connected to your friends.

Miki: We already know all of that, so why don't you just confess already?!

Kei: ...

Hinode: Kei-san, is it okay for me to assume that you haven't killed them because of.. I don't know, you being sadistic or cruel or wanting to see them in pain?

Kei: .. Well.. 

Kei: *laughs* I don't know. I could tell you everything, but.. 

Kei: .. The truth is kinda lame, honestly. 

Miki: There you go. You're trying to avoid this topic again.

Miki: What are you so afraid of, Kei-san? Who cares if the truth is "lame"? Do you think we'll make fun of you or something?..

Kei: .. I don't know, Miki. I don't know. *laughs*

Kei: It's like.. All prisoners here are so cool. Like, you look at them and think "Wow.. Just what could have possibly made them commit murder"?

Kei: I'm pretty close with some of them, so I know some stuff about their crimes and it's like.. They're so scary, but also so cool.. Especially considering that some of them had love as their main motivation.

Kei: .. And I'm.. not like that at all, haha.

Hinode: I think you having five victims already makes your murder one of the scariest ones, if it makes you feel any better.

Kei: Hmm.. Well, my motive kinda sucks. 

Kei: And like.. How I did it. 

Kei: T-to be honest, sometimes I just.. Sometimes I'm not even sure if I was the one who murdered them.

Miki: What?

Kei: B-but never mind, haha.. So, uh, I guess I should tell you something, right?

Kei: So, like..  What do you even want to know?

(sounds of Miki standing up and putting her hands on the table)

Miki: Everything. Tell us everything.

Hinode: Miki-san, I think we should be more specific.

Hinode: For example.. Your motive, Kei-san. Why did you kill those women?

Kei: .. Well..

Kei: Ah, how about we turn this into a game? Come on, guys, try to guess why I killed them!

Miki: Ugh.. I-I don't know, maybe because of jealousy or something? 

Kei: You think I wanted to date all of them?

Miki: Again, I said that I don't know!

Hinode: They found out something they weren't supposed to?

Kei: ...

Kei: Haha.. Wow, looks like we have a winner here~ I'll give you the prize later.

Kei: But like.. How did you-

Hinode: I just guessed, but also.. There was this scene in your video where one of the women found some photographs and..

Hinode: You got really nervous after that.

Kei: .. Ahaha.. You even saw that too?

Miki: What was on those photographs? 

Miki: "It really must've been something truly terrifying to make even Kei-san feel that way.."

Kei: Oh, just some people getting tortured. Like, their fingers being cut off or them losing their eyes or-

Miki: .. But we already knew that you, um..

Miki: Well, took pictures of those people.

Kei: That's because I've told you about it. I'm literally in a prison now, like who cares if I have a job like that, all prisoners here are literally murderers, like who cares!

Kei: But outside Milgram.. life is much harder for someone like me.

Kei: So, like.. I've never told anyone about it except my family. Because, well, it's still a crime, obviously, and I have a reputation to protect.

Kei: Like, imagine if a guy who took photographs for your favorite fashion magazine turned out to be also doing something like that. People would go wild and not in a good way.

Miki: So.. You killed them only because of that?

Miki: "I don't want to say it's lame, but.. I really expected more from his crime.."

Kei: No, no, it doesn't stop there.

Kei: So, um.. They didn't just get scared or something. They were sure I would do the same to them and that's why I invited them to my house.

Miki: Oh..

Kei: No, no, don't get me wrong, I really was going to kill them anyway. Like, I really did invite them just to kill them.

Miki: "Never mind, he's still bad."

Hinode: But.. Why? Why did you plan to kill them?

Kei: That's a story for another time. Who knows, maybe you'll see it in my video.

Kei: And, um.. They kinda.. Tried to defend themselves.

Kei: And they, uh.. Got a bit too.. How do I say it?.. Like, girls really did not have to do all that, haha.

Miki: This.. might be a strange theory, but..

Miki: Kei-san, have they also tried to torture you? You know.. Like maybe they wanted to get back at you? Maybe they wanted you to feel the same pain?

Miki: I'm assuming that would be quite easy for them to do, since, you know..

Miki: You'd have to deal with five angry and scared women all alone.

Kei:  ...

Kei: T-they..

(sounds of Kei struggling to breathe and talk)

Miki: Kei-san, is everything okay?!

Hinode: Looks like you were right, Miki-san.

Miki: B-but how do we help him?!

(sounds of Miki quickly walking up to Kei and something falling on the floor)

Hinode: Ah, Miki-san, you should be more careful.

(sounds of Hinode standing up)

Miki: Huh? D-did I drop something-

Hinode: No, it's okay, I'll get it.

Hinode: It's the memory machine-

Hinode: Huh?

(sounds of something being crushed)

Miki: ...

Hinode: ...

Kei: Oh, actually, I suddenly feel much better now.

Miki: Kei-san..

Miki: .. Did you just step on the memory machine and-

Kei: It's much smaller than I imagined it to be. And breaks so easily too..

Miki: .. What have you done?

(sound of a screen being turned on)

Eiji: WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE?!

Hinode: Wait, is that-

Miki: EIJI-SAN?!

Kei: Told you, obviously he's still alive. So good to finally see you, little brother~

Eiji: KEI, I WILL RIP YOUR ORGANS OUT WHEN WE GET TO TALK IN PERSON, JUST YOU WAIT!

Hinode: Wait, wait, let's calm down here. Eiji-san, what is going on? Did Kei-san do something wrong?

Hinode: Well, not counting him breaking the memory machine..

Eiji: Oh, he definitely did something wrong. 

Eiji: Kei, just a quick little question.

Eiji: What did you do to the cameras? I can no longer see anyone or anything. It's all just black screens. 

Eiji: And I clearly remember seeing you before the cameras started acting weird. 

Eiji: It's like you were just.. standing there. Waiting for something or someone.

Kei: Hmm, but what if it wasn't me, Eiji? Also, I'm sure Milgram would have its cameras hidden from the prisoners, so..

Eiji: How about you ask another prisoner about it? You know, the one you're particularly close with.

Eiji: Also, don't act like you haven't done the same thing before. Just some black spray paint would do the trick.

Kei: .. Haha..

(bell rings, machinery sounds)

Hinode: It's time, Miki-san. And, uh, Eiji-san.

Hinode: We should have expected you to show up for your brother's interrogation, haha.

Eiji: Shut up. 

Kei: So, you're going to watch the third video already, huh?

Kei: Well, I'm ready. But also, please make sure to watch it closely, okay?

Kei: Because I'm not planning to talk about my crime ever again.

Hinode: We will try our best, Kei-san.

Hinode: Admitting that you became a victim of torture yourself must be quite hard for someone like you.

Kei: .. Hey, Hinode, please don't forget to come to my cell and take the prize I promised, okay?

Hinode: Haha, don't worry, I won't. I'm sure you will prepare something amazing for me.

Eiji: You really saw a guard that wasn't your brother or a highschooler and decided to immediately take your chance, huh?

Hinode: What's that supposed to mean, Eiji-san?

Kei: Don't think too much about it-

Miki: WHY CAN'T YOU ALL JUST SHUT UP ALREADY?!

Miki: THE MEMORY MACHINE IS BROKEN, THE CAMERAS ARE BROKEN, WE STILL DON'T KNOW THAT MUCH ABOUT THIS GUY'S CRIME AND HE'S REFUSING TO TELL US MORE AND IT'S THE LAST TRIAL! 

Miki: KEI-SAN! STOP GIVING HINODE-SAN THAT LOOK AND TURN BACK TO ME RIGHT NOW!

Kei: .. Power trip is hitting you hard, Miki.

Miki: Nobody asked.

Miki: Prisoner 005, Kei, sing all of your sins!

[ Kei's Trial 3 MV: Love=Pain ]

It looks like Kei is getting ready for a photo shoot. He still has his pink sunglasses, but he's mostly wearing purple and he has this creepy and suspicious smile on his face. The door opens and his model finally walks in. 

"Well, hello there, nice to meet you

The most beautiful piece of art I've ever seen

Come on, don't feel jealous, I only have eyes for you

So like, can we get started already?"

The model turns out to be Kei as well and this Kei is mostly wearing blue and he doesn't look thrilled to be here. He doesn't like the way the photographer!Kei is staring at him, but he just sighs and gets ready to pose.

Suddenly, we see model!Kei wearing a surprisingly casual and even "normal" outfit (not counting the fact that he has an anime girl print on his hoodie) and he looks very anxious and he keeps looking away. Photographer!Kei rolls his eyes, looking annoyed. Model!Kei is wearing a beautiful black dress and a black hat now and he looks much more confident now and he even winks at Photographer!Kei. The latter, however, looks terrified and he shakes his head. 

"So what do you want me to do? What do you want me to be?

I can be someone who will give you all the love you need and more

I can be someone who will turn your life into an even bigger mess

So what do you want? What do you need? Give me a sign"

Model!Kei sighs again. Photographer!Kei asks someone to come closer and that someone turns out to be Ruka. Ruka listens to photographer!Kei, nods and walks to model!Kei. Model!Kei is visibly sweating and seems to be very nervous, meanwhile Ruka still looks emotionless.

"Ah, I understand now, my love is nothing but a show

My love is supposed to be all soft and cute and "acceptable"

When will it be okay for me to show how IMPERFECT my love is?

When will they finally see my existence as "acceptable"?"

We see photographer!Kei taking pictures of Ruka sitting on model!Kei's lap, model!Kei hugging him, them talking about something, laughing and overall having fun. However, photographer!Kei doesn't look satisfied and he looks model!Kei in the eyes. Model!Kei realizes something and he slowly nods and gets up. 

"My love means nothing, if it doesn't make you cry

I don't want the kind of love that doesn't hurt me

"Play it safe"? Nah, that's not for me

Now can I get praised for being everyone's PERFECT lover?"

Now, we see model!Kei torturing and hurting Ruka in various ways. At first it doesn't look that bad, in some pictures he's just cutting his hair, but eventually it gets worse and model!Kei starts beating him, choking him and breaking his arms. Photographer!Kei is having much more fun now and he seems to really like these pictures. Model!Kei looks very uncomfortable, but then Ruka walks up to him and gives him a genuine smile for a moment. Model!Kei calms down, smiles back and continues to work.

"I am so much more than this

More than my works, my image, my reputation

You're in pain? Well, I'm in pain too

So can we at least suffer together, please?"

In the middle of it, model!Kei suddenly falls on top of Ruka and he looks worried at first and he tries to apologize, but Ruka doesn't seem to mind and simply pokes model!Kei's cheek. Model!Kei laughs and Ruka smiles again, but when model!Kei turns to photographer!Kei, his face expression immediately changes to a shocked one as he sees that it's not Kei who is taking pictures of them now, but his friends. His friends look really scared and model!Kei gets up and tries to explain the situation, but it's too late and some of his friends run away, some of them look at him with a disappointed expression and some of them punch him, slap him and they overall seem to be more angry rather than scared.

"Come on, why would you betray me like this?

You're the only thing that's stopping my life from being PERFECT

So like, love me, love me, love me, please!

I can still be your beautiful mess, just give me a chance!"

We see model!Kei lying on the floor. The room is completely empty and Ruka is gone. The door opens and model!Kei looks hopeful for a second, but then he sees that it's not Ruka or his friends or photographer!Kei. 

It's his friends' girlfriends.

They start to take pictures of him too and now those pictures show model!Kei getting tortured in the exact same ways he tortured Ruka, but we can't see who exactly is doing that to him. Almost all women look emotionless about it and have rather serious expressions, but one of them is looking away, showing that she doesn't approve what they're doing and she doesn't want to join them. 

"This is it, this is my punishment

The hunter became the prey or at least that's what they say

But my love means nothing if it doesn't make me cry

So I'll cry, I'll cry a lot, just say that you love me too, alright?"

The pictures start to get more and more blurry until it's hard to say if it's even Kei who is getting tortured. Finally, one of the pictures shows a woman getting smothered with a pillow. The next one shows a woman getting choked with a rope. The third one shows a woman covered in knife wounds. The fourth one shows a woman lying on the floor with many glass shards around her. 

We can see someone showing the fifth picture to model!Kei and we can't see what's going on in the picture, but the picture seems to be wet, like it fell in the water. 

"You did it, you did this for me

Your love means everything to me now

Oh no, oh no, I'm in so much pain

So like, can you kiss it better or something?"

Someone is still taking pictures of model!Kei as he's looking at it and then he drops it, smiles as more and more pictures get taken and suddenly pulls out a gun. The last picture shows nothing but blood on the wall that is the same image color as Kei's. 

"Actually don't, I kinda like it"

The video ends.

From today’s Cool Doji Danshi event. Finally all 5 were on stage together! 

From the cast and fans’ tweets, I gathered that it was a very funny event. And apparently Chiaki is going to appear on the Cool Doji Danshi drama?? He didn’t tweet about it but I saw many fans mentioning that! I’ll be waiting for more info because I don’t understand what exactly he’s gonna do in the drama. There’s already a drama going on, with actors. Is he gonna join them? I dunno. We’ll see. As one fan mentioned - I’ve also noticed that on his Twitter info he wrote ‘actor’ and not ‘voice actor’. I’ve always wondered why. Are we getting closer to getting the answer to that??

Also, on one segment they were asked: Who’s the cutest person? [x] 

And their answers were: 

Chiaki: “Uchiyama-san” 

Ucchi: “Chiba-kun”

Ume-chan: “Chiba” 

ChibaSho: "Umehara-san ♡ " 

Makonyan: "Chiaki ♡ "

Yes, Makonyan. Good job. Now please, PLEASE, do a BLCD together, I’ve been begging for ages. Please. With ChibaSho too. With either one of them, or both of them. Please and thank you. I’ll keep waiting~ ;*

P.S 

I was losing my shit over those photos of Chiaki in an overall *___*

Heyy — I absolutely LOVE your art!! I’m kinda sad that there is not enough Rio Nakamura fanart in the Internet but you saved me. Are you willing to draw her again? Maybe with karma ? And I always thought about Shuu x Rio what is your opinion on that?

OH THANK YOU!! I draw Nakamura fairly often enough, usually when I'm on the verge of suffering from art block. She's fun and easy to draw and to think about. So, don't worry ❤💕

I might draw her with Karma too. The two hazards to mankind is a dynamic I've definitely thought about time and time again. Let's see if I'll find myself in the mood to draw them in the future 🤔

And about GakuRio... um

I'm sorry. I'm sure you'd want to know what my genuine thoughts about them are but I really just cant.

Nakamura being a sapphic bi who's only into feminine men (Nagisa) and all women is a semi-canon headcanon that is deeply ingrained in my brain, that the mere thought of her being with any guy outside that very specific category is something I just couldn't take seriously 😭

Not that I have anything against people who do ship her with other guys, that is. Y'all do you and I respect that. I'm just not willing to get anywhere near that lane.

It's just that this tweet has done serious damage to my brain and I can't go back 😭

Even with Chiba, despite the amount of Bakamura content I've posted over the years, my body just fully rejects the mere idea of viewing the way I write out their dynamic in a romantic lense 😭 There were like two instances when I drew them in a romance shoujo-manga manner and you easily can tell how UNSERIOUS I am with them lmao

Motonari x Kiyomi

For context, Kiyomi Chiba is my MC for Ikémen Sengoku and she’s a Shinobi who works for Nobunaga Oda after she gets zapped up from her own time along with Sasuke. But unlike him, she already knew how to fight way before she entered the Sengoku Era. When she met Motonari, she rescued Mai and put herself in her place. Since then, Kiyomi and Motonari have had a rivalry like no other, due to their hotheaded personalities and fighting styles. This is just a sneak peak into how their relationship would go after they finally fall in love. Also, Motonari is her ideal suitor.

Before Marriage…

Motonari: *Breathing Heavily*

Kiyomi: *Also Breathing Heavily*

…

Motonari: Argh! I can’t carry on like this! Are ya somehow related to me or somethin’?!

Kiyomi: Hahaha! Nah! I’m just that good!

…

Motonari: *Blushes* Y-Ya wanna go out…? Ya know… as a couple…?

Kiyomi: *Blushes* Huh…?

Kiyomi: *Face Goes Red* WHY ARE YA ASKING ME SOMETHIN’ LIKE THAT IN A MIDDLE OF A FIGHT, YA IDIOT?!!!

Motonari: *Face Also Goes Red* YES OR NO!!! IT’S THAT SIMPLE!!!

Kiyomi: FINE!!! I’LL GO ON A STUPID DATE WITH YA!!!

…

Kicho: Um… I thought we were going war with you both.

Motonari & Kiyomi: *Look At Him With Deadly Glares* Haaah…?

Motonari: Ya interruptin’ us?

Kiyomi: I’ll kill ya…

Kicho: (Oh shit!)

After Marriage…

Kiyomi: *Slams Door Open and Sits Down*

Nobunaga: So good you could join us—?!

Kiyomi: Shut up!

Masamune: Woah! What’s got you so angry?

Kiyomi: *Blushes Heavily* You interrupted my romantic morning with my husband!!!

Hideyoshi: *Sighs* Kiyomi, I understand you’re newlyweds… but this is more important—!

Motonari: *Slams Door Open* You… bastards…! *Dark Glare*

Mitsuhide: Oh dear… someone made—?!!

Kiyomi: *Punches Mitsuhide*

Keiji, Mitsunari & Masamune: *Flinch*

Kiyomi: *Pretends Nothing Happened* Good morning darling~!

Motonari: *Blushes* Y-You saw me earlier…, ya idiot! *Smiles Slightly*

Mitsuhide: *Bleeding*

Mai & Nobunaga: Yeah… those two are made for each other….

For the drabble thing, how about 'Wonder' and Sailor Moon?

Oooo OK. I can go so many ways. hmmmmmmm....

Mamoru hated to say it. But he was starting to become sick of math. He actually liked math... but today he was hating it. Professor Ume had decided to dump a load of math homework on his students just before their three-day vacation.

"So it'll feel like you really earned that vacation time," His professor had said with a smart little smile, and a proud lift of his chin.

"Ego-maniac," Mamoru muttered as he finished a second page of his homework.

That man knew what he was doing.

And he was being an ass.

"Two more pages, two more pages, come on Chiba," he muttered, and then someone was kicking at his door.

Kicking.

He looked up despairingly at his door, and then down at his homework, and then back at the door. Someone kicked again, and Mamoru got up, his jaw set.

Whoever was at the door, was going to get an earful, no excus-

Mamoru opened the door, and Usagi ran past him, giggling, "Hurry! Mamo-chan hurry! Your balcony, come on!"

He let her run past him, his temper cooling by several degrees but not dissipating, "Usagi were you kicking my door?"

"Hurry Mamo-chan! Outside! With me! Your balcony," Her cheerful voice called back.

Like an angered cat, he felt his tension unwind, and his anger start to melt into deep affection. He clung to the last shred of his foul mood, because it was really inappropriate of Usagi to kick his door, and he needed to reprimand her about it. Damaging public property could be a costly affair, after all, and there wasn't a need to kick his door. She had hands!

He followed after her, Usagi leaving a slightly destructive path of knocked over pillows, and one of his books. She was on the balcony, grinning, her hands cupped, and her face lit up with a smile.

Mamoru suddenly noticed the darkened sky, and his last shred of anger, disappeared into immediate fear and concern.

"Usako! It's dark! Why are you over so late? Are you okay?" He asked taking her shoulders, resisting the urge to shake her, as he looked over her body in a full sweep.

"Mamo-chan... look," Usagi whispered and then opened her hands.

Two little glowing balls jumped out of her hand, and he stared, confused as to what he was seeing at first.

His mouth said the word before his brain caught up with it, "Fireflies?"

Usagi giggles, and Mamoru takes in her flushed cheeks, her frizzy buns, and a bit of mud at the hem of her jeans. She flashes him a bright grin, her eyes shining, even in the dark, and she whispers, "I was walking home when I saw them. And when I saw them, I just knew I had to show you."

She had run here to show him fireflies.

He swooped down and kissed her, an arm curling around her shoulders, and around her waist. He lifted her up into his kiss, and she slid her arms around his neck, humming a happy little sound as he kissed her and she returned it. He pulled back, smiling at her flushed face, and the little smile she always had ready for him.

"Usako... you're a wonder."

She giggled, "Did you like the fireflies?"

He laughed, and hoisted her in his arms, carrying her like a princess. He swung her, just enough to get her to gasp, and hook her arms around her neck. Smiling, he kissed her forehead, "Yes, I loved the fireflies. But it's you that's wonderful. Thanks for showing them to me Usako."

She snuggled under his chin, sighing, and Mamoru carried her inside, his homework intentionally forgotten.

Fuck Professor Ume, Mamoru was going to spend time with his girlfriend.

Your 3 favorite female characters from Kimetsu No Yaiba and your 3 favorite platonic dynamics from assassination classroom

Sorry for the delay, but here it is!

My three favorite characters from KNY are:

1° Ume (Daki) She simply has my heart, I find her story very tragic and I sympathize with her.

2° Mitsuri, I love the way she is, I have several friends who think my personality is the same as hers (and others who think it's the opposite).

3° this one was difficult, but it is Kanao, I like her a lot, my opinion of her is very similar to Ume's.

And my favorite AssClass platonic dynamic, I must admit it was hard and no way, it had a tie (not least because these dynamics swap between the top 3 all the time on my favorite list).

1° Class 3-E, partly because it includes almost all the dynamics, partly because what they share is so beautiful and unique, it may have been 60 years ago and it may have been with a former classmate they weren't even close to, but it's a special bond they have with each other.

2° Sniper/Ikemen duo, I can't pick one of the main duos, I love them too much, and I like all of the characters (I have a slight "implication" {I hope that word sounds the same in English} with Maehara, but in a loving way) and maybe that is influenced by Isohaya and mathematical friends Chiba and Maehara.

3° group of Terasaka/Group 3, a found family within a found family with their own personalities and hobbies that mature over the course of the story (although I wanted Hara to have more prominence)? How can you not love that?

I know that part was kind of a cheat, but I told you so.

Koume, un perra de 5 años, salvó la vida de un hombre que sufrió un infarto en Japón. Y claro que sí: recibió un homenaje especial.

Todo sucedió en un club hípico de Wakaba-ku, en la prefectura de Chiba. El hombre, de unos 50 años, se enfermó y se desmayó en el lugar.

Koume estaba cerca y, al darse cuenta de qué algo extraño pasaba, comenzó a ladrar fuerte para llamar la atención de otras personas. El hombre fue atendido rápidamente, pero tuvo que ser reanimado por paramédicos.

Yuna Maruo, una de las empleadas del sitio, dijo a los medios locales que la perra es "generalmente, bastante tranquila" y que solo ladra en "circunstancias raras".

Se cree que Koume aprendió cómo reaccionar en situaciones de emergencia de Ume, otro perro que vivía en las instalaciones.

Koume vive en el club junto a otros perros, que están allí para recibir a los visitantes.

Por su heroico acto, la perra recibió una carta oficial de agradecimiento de los bomberos de Wakaba-ku durante una breve ceremonia de homenaje.
