Mafuyu
I had a feeling I could never go back. So I was scared for the dawn to come. Even though... Even though I can't go anywhere, I don't want to go, dawn will inevitably break.
GIVEN, vol. 5
Mafuyu
Some things simply can't be taken back. You can't go back the way you came because this is a one-way street.
Even if I lose something else, as long as I've got music, I believe now, that I'll find memories of what I lost in the noise. I think that I'll surely forget this moment, so let's keep doing music.
Yuki
Keep singing them loudly enough for me to listen from here.

My roman empire right now is that Uenoyama completely understanding Mafuyu about his past about his trauma with knowing so little about it and never once felling jealous about it like when Mafuyu said that clock looks like Yuki's and when Uenoyama hugged him Mafuyu was about to apologize but then Uenoyama said don't look like you're going to cry alone when I'm with you he didn't even cared about Mafuyu bringing up Yuki all he cared was Mafuyu being okay and knowing he wasn't alone or when they were "fighting" and Mafuyu being scared that he was gonna lose Uenoyama too and saying if we don't talk something bad will happen again and Uenoyama going "I'm so idiot" and hugging Mafuyu tightly and trying to be there for him when things get rough trying to make things easier for him trying to help him heal even if that means completing Mafuyu's dead boyfriend's song and I love him for it Uenoyama deserves much more

given - lost in translation
we know that when the band was just uenoyama, haru and kaji the band was named "the seasons" because they all have the kanjis for the seasons in their names, but here's the breakdown :
uenoyama : 立夏 (rikka - given name) meaning first day of summer
haruki : 中山 (haruki) ; 中 (haru) meaning spring
kaji : 秋彦 (akihiko) ; 秋 (aki) meaning autumn
they could've kept "the seasons" with the inclusion of mafuyu, too, since
真冬 (mafuyu) -> 真 (ma) - true ; 冬 (fuyu) - winter
but did you also know that pain is endless 🥲 because
although yuki's name uses the kanji 由紀 (yu - reason, cause ; ki - chronicle) it is also a homophone for 雪 (yuuki - snow)
so
"just like the snow in the shade that hasn't completely melted, i continue on with these feelings inside me" (first line of fuyunohanashi / a winter story / mafuyu's song)
winter can exist without the snow but snow can't exist without winter ദ്ദി ꒦ິ꒳꒦ິ )

people in the given universe don't know that the love song SYH played at their concert was initially written by Yuki (iirc)
so they're just listening to this love song that has a melody really close to fuyu no hanashi. they know that Hiiragi and Mafuyu are (childhood) friends. there are people out there that ship them in-universe. they're so bound to make the wrong conclusions and I find that hilarious

So, I've recently been attempting to learn Japanese, and one cool detail I noticed that probably everyone else already knows is that in Given, it's decided to change the band's name from "the seasons" to "given". Even tho it is stated that they also wanna change it because loads of other bands have similar names and because it was chosen before Mafuyu had joined, it is mentioned that it was a thing because all Haruki's, Ue's and Kagi's name have an element that references a season. So, Kagi's given name is Akihiko, and "aki" means autumn; Haruki's name has "haru", which means spring; Uenoyama's name means "the first day of summer".
Now, what I find really interesting is that, even tho the decide to change the name partly because Mafuyu wouldn't be included, Mafuyu's name also checks the boxes, since it contains the "fuyu", which means "winter" . So, had they kept the name, not only would they all have checked the "name after a season box", but they all would be representing a different one, and they'd cover all of them.
Again, I'm pretty sure loads of other people had noticed this before and I'm super late, but I thought it was worthy mentioned because I find it funny that they went through all the trouble of finding a new name even tho the one the already had was actually perfectly suited.
#random midnight thoughts#Everyone already knows Yuki means snow#You know how snow is contained inside of winter the way#Like you could have winter without snow but not snow without winter#If it weren't for fucking climate change#Just how Mafuyu has to exist without Yuki now#given anime#given manga#uenoyama ritsuka#mafuyu sato#haruki nakayama#akihiko kaji#uenoyama x mafuyu#fuyu no hanashi#Also I'm pretty sure Ugetsu's name has the rain kanji on it#i might be wrong#Pretty new to the whole learning Japanese situation

Why do you think Mafuyu brought Ue to the beach to confess? I think this is why some think that Uenoyama is just a rebound because the scene was a direct parallel to when him and Yuki went to the beach even repeating the line “this looks like a good dating place”. Was Mafuyu trying to erase that memory with Yuki with a new memory with Ue?
No he's definitely not a rebound in my opinion, I really think he brought Uenoyama to the beach as part of his healing and grief journey and to show himself that he's moved on!
I think in some way, it's important to know that Yuki will always be a part of Mafuyu, not only as his bf but as his friend. I think when you lose someone in that way, they will always be a part of you whether it's romantically or platonically.
So the sea is a special place for Mafuyu but it's not because it's overshadowed by Yuki's memory, it's that his new love is something he came to terms with after singing Fuyunohanashi and that overlaps with his healing from losing Yuki.
That's my opinion! I'm sure more will get revealed in Given 10th mix!

Hi, I would like Given headcanons please! I like to imagine Mafuyu having a little sister who’s about 5 yrs old (the mom adopted her when he was 11) and since she was a baby she saw Yuki, Hiiragi and Shizu as her other older brothers. Could you also include how what happened to Yuki affects her and her meeting Ritsuka please? (◕ヮ◕)
Mafuyu's little tresor
Mafuyu,Yuki, Hiiragi, Shizu x Platonic little sister reader / Comfort and a bit of angst / Headcanons
a/n : Thank you so much for your request! Honestly, I shed a tear when I mentioned Yuki, but I love the idea! I hope this post lives up to your expectations !
The day you came into Mafuyu's life, he immediately adored you. You were the cutest thing he'd ever seen. And of course it wasn't long before he introduced you to his friends.
In fact, the week after you arrived in the Sato family, you were already surrounded by love. It wasn't unusual to see you together, playing in a playpen. But you spent most of your time with Mafuyu and Yuki, whether it was making little aeroplanes, playing hide-and-seek or playing jokes on Hiiragi or Shizu. You were inseparable.
Even though 'officially' you only had one older brother, Mafuyu, in reality you had 4. On one particular day, the weather was perfect for playing in the park. Shizu and Hiiragi were fighting over a toy while Yuki and Mafuyu sat on the grass, chatting. You were chasing a beautiful butterfly that refused to land on your hand when you tripped over a stone and fell heavily to the ground.
Your cries immediately attracted the attention of the 4 boys who, in a flash, ran to you. "Y/N, are you all right?" asked Yuki, coming up to you. "Of course not, you idiot, you can see she's crying!" shouted Hiiragi. Mafuyu got down on his knees in front of you, "Can you show me where you hurt yourself?", sobbing, your little trembling hand pointing to your knee. "We'll fix that at home," Mafuyu said, smiling.
You found yourself on Shizu's back, your crying having subsided. When you got home, Yuki took you in his arms and led you into the bathroom, sitting you down on the toilet. Shizu grabbed a cotton pad and some disinfectant while Mafuyu pulled up your trousers. Hiiragi made faces at you to stop you seeing your little wound, and your laughter filled the small room.
The 5 of you were really happy together. The years passed quietly, and one day you were surprised by something that was, to say the least, surprising. Yuki and Mafuyu… kissing?! That was the day you found out they were going out and even though Mafuyu was initially afraid of your reaction, you were overjoyed. Because it meant you'd be spending even more time with Yuki !
But your happiness didn't last forever.
From one day to the next, Yuki stopped coming to the house and your big brother spent most of his time locked up in his room. It was the year you turned 10 that you learned of Yuki's death. And no words are strong enough to describe what you felt. It was as if your heart was being ripped out, then put back in, then taken out, over and over again.
You didn't know how he died and, to be honest, you didn't even want to know. The last thing you had left of Yuki was a photo taken years ago, when you were children and still carefree. That photo never left your sight, not even at school.
And one evening, when your mother wasn't back yet, you needed Mafuyu. You knocked lightly on his door, but there was no answer. You decided to go in anyway. Mafuyu was sitting on the floor, staring into space. Without a word, you sat down beside him.
-" It hurts." You say, staring at an invisible spot. -" I know." You rested your head on your big brother's shoulder. He put his arm around your shoulders to pull you closer to him.
-"Will it ever get easier? -I don't know." The conversation is slow, but you've never needed words to understand each other.
Yuki's death took you out of the world of childhood much more quickly than expected. The world seemed less colourful, the sun less bright. The death of one of your older brothers was your first experience of death. And nothing seemed to be able to soothe your heart.
And a year later, you still couldn't accept it.
But after a year, you saw Mafuyu come home later than usual, his eyes a little less vacant than before. You're 11 years old, you're a child but life has turned you into an adult. You're happy to see life gradually returning to Mafuyu, perhaps because after a while it gets easier ?
So one day, when Mafuyu was still coming home quite late, you asked him.
-" How did you do it?" Mafuyu looked at you, confused. -What do you mean ?" Yuki's guitar was always with him.You approached the case gently.
-"How did you manage to get your taste for life back?" For a few seconds, Mafuyu said nothing, then he smiled at you, with that smile that always managed to bring yours back.
-"I'll show you tomorrow, okay?" You nodded.
The next evening arrived. You were in your room when you heard the front door close, Mafuyu's voice reaching you as well as that of a stranger. When you reached the entrance, a young man with black hair looked at you, surprised.
-"He's called Ritsuka, he's a friend from high school." Mafuyu said. -"Hello!" said the man called Ritsuka.
You waved your hand at him, confused.
-"Your name's Y/N, isn't it? Mafuyu's told me a lot about you. -Yes, that's me." Still a bit confused, you don't really know what to say.
-"Ritsuka's teaching me to play guitar, he's got a band!" Said Mafuyu, a hint of excitement in his voice. -Really? That's cool!" You say, slightly less embarrassed.
That evening, you didn't get much more out of Ritsuka, but you were pleased to see that Mafuyu seemed so happy to be learning to play the guitar. You felt a twinge of sadness at the thought of how happy Yuki would have been to see Mafuyu play. It's just… strange to see your big brother have a friend again, to see him get some colour.
And the weeks passed, slowly. Until one day Mafuyu came to see you in your room, to have a serious talk.
-"I've joined Ritsuka's group. We're having a concert next Sunday, please come." There was a lot of information to digest all at once.
First your brother joined a band, then he was going to perform in front of people and then he wanted you to come.
-"Are you sure ?" You say. -"You know, I believe that music saved me in some ways. I have so many things in me that I can't say or simply express. I'm not good with words but playing made it possible to bring out things that I thought I had locked away inside me forever. I would like you to find your outlet too." Mafuyu said, looking you straight in the eyes. -"Okay, I'll come." And the smile Mafuyu gave you was a smile you hadn't seen in 2 years.
Night of the concert
You were lost in the mass of people at the entrance. There were really a lot of people.
-“Y/N?!” This voice… Hiiragi! You turned around abruptly, meeting the gaze of an older brother you hadn't seen in a long time. Without thinking another second, you ran into his arms, bumping into a few people in the process, tears ready to fall at any moment.
-"I missed you so much…" You say, face buried in his chest, his arms instantly closing around you. -"I missed you a lot too, little sister.." And you couldn't hold back your tears any longer. “Look who’s here too.” You turned your face slightly to meet Shizu's eyes.
You hugged your two big brothers tightly, letting silent tears fall down your cheeks.
-"What are you doing here ?" You say, trying to dry your tears. -"We came to see Mafuyu sing." Shizu replied, still keeping you in his arms. “Stay close to us, there are a lot of people here.” He said with a smile. -"Of course, I won't let you go."
Finding yourself in the concert hall, you climbed on Shizu's shoulders so you could see something, like when you were kids.
youtube
(please go see the concert, I always cry and it breaks my heart but it's so powerful)
When Mafuyu's voice rang out, it was as if your heart had just stopped because you knew, you knew who he was talking about.
Images of Yuki, Mafuyu and you come back to you, the moments when you laughed, when you slept together, when Yuki took you in his arms because you were too tired to walk home.
You miss him, you miss him so much that you barely notice the tears running down your cheeks, all you see is Mafuyu.
And Yuki.
But Yuki is no longer here, he will never be here again.
So we must move forward and live, live so that he never fades.
You found your outlet.
A year later
-"Give it to me !" You shouted at Ritsuka who was holding up a bag of candy that you wanted.
Mafuyu and Ritsuka's laughter echoed through the apartment. Another year had passed. A year where you learned to live again, little by little. You saw your big brother fall in love with someone else and it would be a lie to say that it was simple at first. You felt like you were betraying Yuki by thinking that you were happy for Mafuyu and Ritsuka.
You often looked at this photo of the 5 of you as children. But as the seasons pass, sadness takes up less and less space in your heart.
The sun seemed to be shining again.
Hey I'm really sorry for adding passages but I was very inspired haha, if you don't like it I can do it again for you 100% without any problem, I was very happy to write that even if review the concert made me cry haha. Thank you very much again for your request!
See you <3

Posted before but posting again to remember to continue with this Given sickfic, along with the Given sickfic with kid Uenoyama and caring Haruki/ Kaji :) (Evil laugh)
If Uenoyama had known this is how his day would have turned out, he would have just stayed home. Being at his house, his sister and father gone for the weekend, would have been better than his current situation. And less embarrassing. Humiliating.
It started out as a headache, a small annoying ache across the bridge of his nose and behind his eyes as he waved to his father as they pulled out on the street, leaving him behind so he could go to school and practice with his band… and spend time with his boyfriend. His stomach had followed later that evening, making the noodles his sister had prepared ahead of time, difficult to eat. He thought all he needed was rest. After all, Given had been practicing like hell lately to prepare for their next gig, and school exams were coming up, so sleep was getting hard to come by.
By Friday morning as Uenoyama begrudgingly walked through the gates of his school, smiling towards Mafuyu as the red-head made his way towards him, the 17-year-old realized, that might not have been the case. Despite getting a few decent hours of uninterrupted sleep and choking down a few Aspirin, along with whatever the hell his sister had left out for him for breakfast, his headache had worsened and his stomach even more so.
All-in-all, his day hadn’t gone great. But things went from bad to worse after classes ended, and he followed Mafuyu back to his apartment to practice and hang out. They hadn’t spent a whole lot of time together outside of rehearsal, even less as just the two of them. Working several jobs a week made alone time rare. Never mind the stress from school didn’t help, so the Friday hang out/ date night was something they both were looking forward to. And something Uenoyama really didn’t want to cancel.
However, had he known this is where he’d end up, he’d have canceled in a heartbeat. Because cancelling, staying in a quiet lonely house for the weekend, would have been better than this. Preferred even. Given his current situation.
Instead, the 17-year-old found himself hunched over the toilet, puking his guts out for what had to be the fourth time, in Mafuyu’s cramped bathroom while his boyfriend hovered over him. He wasn’t entirely sure when things took a turn. One minute him and Mafuyu were tuning their guitars and joking with each other; the next, he’s vomiting up the tea the younger had offered when they got there.
“Uenoyama?”
Mafuyu’s concerned voice hit his ears as the 17-year-old leaned his sweaty forehead against his arm on the rim of the toilet. He swallowed thickly as Mafuyu’s hand trailed gently up his back, pulling some hair away from his face. He closed his eyes, soft fingers carding through greasy sweaty locks. This. Sucked. So. Fucking. Much.
He didn’t want to look at Mafuyu. Not right now. Not like this. He always tried so hard to be cool in front of his boyfriend. To appear tough. Hell, the only other people outside of his family who’d seen him sick like this, was Haruki and Kaji (a memory Uenoyama barely recalled as he’d been 14 and had one hell of a fever.) But right now, Mafuyu’s normally comforting grasp was nothing more than a reminder of his current situation. Not only had he thrown up in front of the younger several times within the past two hours, but he probably looked just as bad as he felt.
Sweat plastered to him roughly as his hair matted against flushed skin. His head hurt more than anything, making his stomach even more nauseous and hard to keep down the water his boyfriend had offered him several times. Honestly, Uenoyama would chalk this up to a migraine, something he hadn’t had since he was a kid, except for the fact that he was shivering, sweat soaking his shirt, making it cling to his back and chest uncomfortably. So, he had a fever too, which was uncommon with the headaches he’d sometimes get. All-in-all, he probably had some stomach bug that’d been going around school. And instead of staying home like he’d planned, he forced himself to school, to see Mafuyu, trying to be a good son and boyfriend. An almost laughable cosmic result to his efforts. He really should have just stayed home. Because being alone and miserable was better than being this vulnerable, this uncool, this pathetic, and miserable.
Mafuyu hummed lowly, his fingers brushing against Uenoyama’s sweaty cheek as the ladder groaned, pulling himself back over the toilet. Uenoyama clenched his eyes, saliva building in his mouth as his stomach cramped. Part of him wanted to curl up against his boyfriend, giving in to his soft grip, letting himself be cared for – let himself be weak. Part of him wanted Mafuyu to hold him, to soothe all the shit that his body was trying to force to the surface through fevered skin, a spinning head, and nauseous stomach.
Another part of him wanted to tell Mafuyu to leave. To go back to his room, to leave him alone to wallow in his own misery until he found enough of his footing to make it to the train station, to make it home. It wasn’t that his boyfriend had done anything wrong; hell, he’d been glued to him since Uenoyama unceremoniously sprinted to the bathroom after trying his best to shove his guitar as gently as possible away from his twisting stomach. If anything, the amount of attention he was being showered with was almost addicting, the comfort he wanted so badly to give into… it was embarrassing really.
But that wasn’t his style. He didn’t like showing weakness. But right now, weakness was all he fucking had. To make matters worse, he couldn’t look any weaker if he tried. He couldn’t keep anything down, and the fever was making it harder to concentrate, to hold himself up, to breathe properly. Never mind the fact that he’d been cramped in the bathroom, vomiting for the last two hours, in front of his boyfriend… in front of the person he’d just been making out with. The person he’d been intimate with, who-
The 17-year-old lurched, coughing up the pitiful amount of water he’d choked down not even twenty minutes ago as Mafuyu adjusted his grasp, shushing him gently. In the hallway, Kedama yipped, spinning slightly before sitting down, and Uenoyama gagged roughly, his boyfriend’s hand gently trailing up and down his sweat-soaked shirt...

when i wrote fic as a teen thru young adulthood i usually wrote one-shots in one go. very rarely did i think out anything beyond the general plot. i would throw everything in the air and let the chips fall wherever the fuck. it worked nicely for me.
coming out of fanfic writing retirement for this given fic has been a different beast. i have a more structured plot in mind! i'm not writing it chronologically nor in one go! i'm writing in chunks and delving into different parts of the story in a non-linear way. it's all very new and fun and i enjoy getting to write different scenes that i wouldn't ever get to if i wound up in the "write it in order" attention span trap. i might even fuck around and make it a multi chapter fic. it's certainly shaping up to be long enough to warrant it. my last first and last multi chapter fic was an OC pokemon adventure of sorts back in two- thousand and fucking six. 2006!!!! i was a baby last time i wrote one!!
so it's new for me to get tangled in the web of "uh ohhhh did i just derail this story into another one?" :/ i meant to have this given fic be lighthearted, weird, and fun. and i have lots of pages that i love and want to keep using, BUT.
now i'm sitting here with an ongoing scene that could easily be a part of its own mafuragi one-shot fic where it would work better stylistically. but i'm too invested to completely scrap it.
like i have to either re-work the narrative structure of the story to make this more consistent in order to fit OR remove this scene all together. i'm super attached to my original structure, but i also don't have any plot in mind to utilize this mafuragi scene ::::////
and! since i've been craving the attention span To write again for years, i'm almost masochistically loving this dilemma. it's like yes!!! hello there, annoying problem!!! i am engaging in one of my most treasured pastimes and get to experience new common writing mind fucks as a result!! AHHH!!!
anyway. back to figuring out what the hell i'm gonna do with this scene. i love u mafuragi i will make something work for u babes.
#it's also really funny bc there are so few mafuragi shippers last i saw#i have missed writing i have missed writing problems i have missed it all#and like this is not meant to be a shipping fic in the slightest and is canon compliant with the ships so i derailed hard#i just rly love mafuyu and hiiragis relationship i wish kizu would have spent more time on it#like we get a lot of yuki/mafuyu and hiiragi/shizu backstory and feelings but mafuragis dynamic feels more surface level?#they're so spicy and bicker a lot but there's a tenderness that went unexplored and i wanna dissect it#anyway#mafuragi#mafuyu x hiiragi#given manga

my yuriful summer 2024 watchlist 🏖️☀️
now that i checked out the first episode of all the yuriful shows i was keeping an eye on, here’s my first thoughts and impressions
Mayonaka Punch
tags: comedy, supernatural, vampire
thoughts on episode 1: LOVED IT SO SO MUCH!!! i love the mc already she’s such a mess and i already love the dynamic between her and the raging vampire lesbian. my favorite from the ones on this list tbh!! need more cancelled youtubers and horny for blood lesbian vampires. also i have a weak spot for anime with adult characters who can drink alcohol and get wasted lol. WILL be watching EAGERLY.
yuri thoughts 🌸: the yuri looks solid!! there was verbal mention of lesbian romantic feelings. and as in most vampire shows, blood drinking is metaphor for sex but it’s made quite explicit in this one which increases the yuri score. the protagonists have already a v interesting dynamic im invested.
(EDIT) POST EP 3 THOUGHTS: i love this one more and more!!! still my fave out of these 5 for some reason? i just like masaki and live’s dynamic a lot, i hope they kiss
(EDIT) ALMOST END OF THE SEASON UPDATE: only one of these im still watching lmao ep 9 and 10 were really good! i hope masaki and live make out by the end. yuki best girl
Na Nare Hana Nare
tags: sports
thoughts on episode 1: LOVE the colors and art style in this one! love that there’s a girl in a wheelchair!! love the brazilian girl who keeps kissing everyone!! the parkour girl is turbo autistic fr… also a ninja lmao. im v interested in this tbh!! will be watching.
yuri thoughts 🌸: im v interested in the possible yuriful dynamics, especially between the girl in a wheelchair and mc, and between parkour ninja autistic and tall girl. i think the brazilian girl and girl who follows her around are also supposed to be shipped.
(EDIT) POST EP 3 THOUGHTS: yeppp turbo autism ninja is a huge lesbian i love her sm 💌. very sweet show!
(EDIT) ALMOST END OF THE SEASON UPDATE: on hold. it got quite boring at the ep 5 mark and i cant will myself to continue. might drop
Senpai was Otokonoko
tags: crossdressing, love polygon, romance, school
thoughts on episode 1: this counts as yuriful and i Will fight u on this. bisexual girl x closeted trans girl x closeted gay childhood friend love triangle? discussions of gender identity? yes pls. will be continuing it!!
yuri thoughts 🌸: makoto and aoi are cute 🥹
(EDIT) POST EP 3 THOUGHTS: idc about whatever happens later on, makoto is a trans girl, episode 2 and 3 are an insane confirmation. even if she never breaks through her eggshell throughout the whole series, she’s trans. no like fr. i love her so so much and i hope she’ll be able to transition (either at the end of the series or afterwards). egg of the season 🥚🏳️⚧️
(EDIT) ALMOST END OF THE SEASON UPDATE: meh. dropped lmao
Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan
tags: comedy, gag humor, school
thoughts on episode 1: “shiiiika 🦌!!!” okay y’all know i love me some gag humor anime but tbqh im feeling kinda lukewarm on this one. maybe it’s bc i had rly high expectations for this but idk most of the gags did not hit as nice as i hoped. tho some of them were brilliant (also looove the constant breaking of the fourth wall). not looking forward to the siscon character that’s gonna be introduced. will be continuing but might drop if i get bored. however i loved how they Did mention that only male deer have horns sooo… noko transbian 🦌🏳️⚧️?
yuri thoughts 🌸: the two protagonists have great yuri potential!! torako has already shown she’s a huge girl kisser and noko just keeps teasing her, which is a great dynamic imo. also torako’s va is hatsune miku’s voice provider, and we all know hatsune miku is transbian goddess so!
(EDIT) POST EP 3 THOUGHTS: okay nvm i actually love this!!!!!! and the siscon character is such a caricature and parody of the siscon trope that i love her too (also she’s voiced by mafuyu project sekai uwu).
(EDIT) ALMOST END OF THE SEASON UPDATE: dropped lmao (gags got boring, i have seen too many similar shows)

thoughts on episode 1: once again maybe unpopular opinion but im not completely sold on this one. yes it’s fun, yes she’s unhinged, yes they’re all absolutely raging homosexuals BUT idk how to explain it but it feels very much male oriented. idk i think i feel this way bc it’s my personal pet peeve when otaku shows focus mostly on men as the intended audience (for example, when they showed her audience, all the viewers were men which like. they could have shown at least one woman who likes watching her videos yknow?). so anyway. at least it’s incredibly gay? and once again, love characters gettinf drunk lol. but idk i feel like this was made to ride the wave of hololive and get men on twitter to share funny clips idk. i like how they use actual vtuber avatars in certain scenes, and i get the vibe they’ll want to make these girls real vtubers, hence why we dont see what they actually look like but just their vtuber persona. will be checking out more ep but will drop if it gets too meh.
yuri thoughts 🌸: as mentioned, all the girls are RAGING homosexuals fr. asking about favorite lesbian porn scenarios to each other to possibly act them out. hello?!
(EDIT) POST EP 3 THOUGHTS: again nvm, i like this one too now lmao tho i’d rank it last out of these 5 tbh. but it’s so unhinged and deranged that it’s a super fun watch
(EDIT) ALMOST END OF THE SEASON UPDATE: the wii fit -like episode was the last drop. burnt braincells i’ll never grow back. dropped byeee 0/10
