ive started marking passages whenever theres a drarry (aka any sort of interaction or harry observing draco) moments and i think i deserve compensation for my work bc harry would not Shut The Fuck Up abt this boy the minute he enters hogwarts jesus christ, im gonna run out of my first batch of sticky tabs
something is happening? i now have to know dracos reaction about it. doesnt matter if hes doing the loud theatrics over his table(WHICH IS FAR AWAY FROM GRYFFINDORS) or just reacting by himself, harry will Make the readers know what it is no matter what. like seriously do i really have to know that pansy was worrying over dracos injury and that when she looks away draco is winking over crabbe and goyle?? harry please focus on ur potions
also started to realize that ron reacts more violently whenever draco is talking as opposed to harry, which is pretty wild to me cuz harry Is capable of feeling hatred, he doesnt shy away from hating snape in his mind and being snippy about it, but draco being an annoying little prat gets like Maybe a small flicker of annoyance. he seems to be more busy trying not to look embarrassing in front of him for some reason (the first dementor incident, when he received his valentine letter and sees draco in the audience, not wanting to go to hospital wing like boy who cares what draco will think???? my god)

My black mage is too cute... (and a carboncopy, too)
If you like Spy x Family (SxF) you might find this somewhat interesting. A plus if you are a wee bit familiar with Harry Potter (HP)
If not, skip this.
Warning: Chapter 1 Spoilers for My Black Mage is too Cute under the cut. Long post, too.
Tumblr media
Yes, the above is official. It is not fanmade. The chap above is a student actually saying "I will kill you" whilst thinking "I like you". The pink-haired girl is a classmate, shocked as SHE CAN READ HIS MIND.
So... what can I say? The boy looks suspiciously like a teen SxF Damian, and the kawaii girl looks like a teen SxF Anya. Browse the damianya tag and you will see how similar they are.
Tumblr media
Other than being students in a magical school (hi, Hogwarts), and girl is a prefect (hi again, Hogwarts) the rest does look like an AU Damianya to me... sans the Damianya/SxF charm.
-Background-
My Black Mage is too Cute (such an unimaginative title but on par with other shoujo titling standards) launched in the August 2023 Hana to Yume issue 17/2023.
The premise is quite damianya simple: Tsundere boy, named Jade, with a rather obscure family, is hiding romantic feelings for your standard bubbly, chirpy pink haired shoujo heroine, named Aria Popwell. She is a senior (third year) to him (first year), and prefect at their School of Magic.
-Aria, the female lead-
Seriously, "Aria"? Nothing to connect with certain Anya, right?
Anyway, chapter starts with introducing Aria, the female lead. She is a prefect (whatever this means) at Hogwarts Hardy Quartz Magic Academy, "where apprentice magicians attend classes" We don't know where this Academy is (Japan, I suppose)
Aria is in her third year (no sure if this is a grade, and in fact, how many grades there are if any). She also teaches other junior students (perhaps for being a prefect, this is not confirmed) Her first words are to let us know that Kafugori are big bad wolfs that are very dangerous and how to face them. This is important to the plot (more on this later) It also sets some expectations. To me, I am led to believe that Aria is proficient and competent in whatever she does as a magician or at least, as a student in a Magic Academy.
Tumblr media
Yes, let's have a closer look at our heroine... Yep the ^_^ shoujo trope.
Tumblr media
Oh no no... that is not a damian jade-shoujo-filter yet. This is how WE are meant to see her. The shoujo flowers are absolutely necessary to help you understand that she is the cutest, loveliest creature on Earth. Unfortunately, we have seen the same face, same flowers and same cheerful shoujo attitude hundreds of times.
-Jade, the male lead-
Tumblr media
Yes, this is Jade. Probably if Damian's puberty makes him... agonisingly emo teenager whilst keeping his mysterious and irresistible good looks. Or else. And Yes, Anya Aria just read his thoughts for the first time, much to her shock. Apparently until now, she did not know she can read thoughts when she touches people.
-Giving Tsundere a bad name...-
Tumblr media
In case the first time's insults (pushy bitch) were not clear, he escalates his attitude. (Note: I appreciate that the fan translation might not be that harsh, so probably bitch is not what the original Japanese intended to sound) As he is such a cute and charming misunderstood black magician, he has to make sure his prefect is well aware that he is not only terrible at throwing unimaginative insults... he is also proud to announce he will kill her. Why? I do not know.
If you are a hopeless 13-year-old romantic teen that finds that charming, I hope you grow up out of this as soon as possible. If not, please stay away from handsome, dark, mysterious boys/men who might feel the opposite when they say "I'll kill you" Good looks are not worth it and I bet you do not have mind-reading abilities.
There is a kind of cute tsundere (Damian himself, though he is just a young boy), this is not one. There is absolutely nothing sexy, romantic, attractive or remotely interesting in a guy that pretends to hate you, says he will kill you, when they actually like you. Insulting is no praise either and I detest this trope.
Some tsundere fail to recognise or deny (again, Damian, he is too young); some are a bit embarrassed and these pass soon. Insulting and threatening is not charming.
-No, we don't need to see your fantasies (part I)-
Tumblr media
Is he really fantasising / wishing to be kissed by her???
Yep, he is. What a creep.
It is bad enough that this guy thinks Aria is cute/hot/pretty and admits (to himself) that he likes her, when in actuality he is insulting her (a charmer). Wait, why would she kiss him? Because she is flattered she is called pushy bitch? Slow poke? Because she likes to receive death threats?
I was truly hoping Jade wanted her to kiss him to destroy that stupid crush. Only an idiot would kiss such a jerk. That would be his eye opener, at least, to realise he cannot possibly like someone so daft. Otherwise, this is ridiculous.
-She is adorably clumsy... NO. She is not.-
Moving on, good news is that the story goes to the point, way too much. Does not waste time with world-setting, simple when/where/why/how/what...
No, we meet cheerful Aria, and dark Jade like that. Other characters do not have any names, and do not really matter. Simple and lazy storytelling.
As Aria is completely shocked she reads minds, she has some little insights/flashbacks about this newly (and conveniently) found ability. No creativity, no build-up, no surprise, nothing. It just happens. Maybe this will be developed later, but it is just dumped like that.
Next panels are a few random examples of him pretending not to care about her, but actually saving this clumsy Aria girl. Too fast and again, no time to digest anything.
Tumblr media
First time Jade stops a magic lab accident by destroying a hazardous chemical aimed to that foolish girl.
Tumblr media
Second time, he appears to be shoving Aria off his way when in reality, he was saving her from being poisoned.
Why is she even a prefect???? How come she is not aware of the hazards around school??? Why are there hazards like those in a school no matter how magical this is???
Frankly, instead of being charmed by Jade's apparent indifference (yet saving her arse), to me this is a disservice to the girl that started the story being introduced as a prefect. We meet this shoujo heroine explaining useful tips as to how to defend yourself from big bad magical wolves. Sets a bar, you expect some proficiency even if you are not (yet) explained her merits or how she got the prefect status. By being this dumb, requiring the hero to save her, we have to lower our standards. At some point, even Jade himself wonders how she even became a prefect in the first place...
Back to the story, as now Jade inadvertently picked Aria's interest after saving her, we have Aria determined to know him better because, and I quote "Is Jade actually a really good kid who's easily misunderstood?"
So she joins him for lunch. Basically now she is trying to connect with him which only makes him complain and insult again. Now I have to agree with Jade, and I hope these attempts to connect with him help him realise his crush is as dumb as Aria.
Tumblr media
How many times have we seen the kawaii heroine with that exactly same pose??? Eye wink + finger + cute smile + shoujo flowers. This is supposed to charm boy who (for no reason) is already charmed by this standard shoujo/magical girl trope.
Tumblr media
The highlight of the chapter is when dark boy saves clumsy useless girl from being eaten by a Kafugori. Yep, the same beast she started the chapter talking about. Too bad, I would have appreciated getting rid of this ridiculous FL.
Why is a prefect unable to defend herself when chapter started with this lady mentoring others? I've no idea.
Why is the first year student able to save her? Other than a convenient plot device, I suppose we are led to believe that (1) he is powerful (more than her, but this is not a high bar at this point) (2) as he is a dark mage or comes from a family of dark mages, then his abilities are better. Or both.
She is again pushy, wants to understand why he saved her again (and yes, we want to know too) The pacing and rhythm are confusing, he declares he does not want her around because he is dark magician and would stain her reputation. There is a flashback when they meet, on his first day at school, and apparently, how he started his crush on her.
Tumblr media
Again, the same shoujo-face, with shoujo-flowers, with naive shoujo-girl that smiles at sad kid declaring she does not care about his dark magic nature.
-No, we don't need to see your fantasies (part II)-
After the flashback to understand (?) why he seems to like her so much, Aria insists she will help clarify that he is actually a nice kid so that everyone knows.
Then she touches him again, and so she reads his mind.
Tumblr media
My face mirrors Aria's. D:
Why does he have such ridiculous fantasies about her?? Marry her??? WHY??? Even poor Damian, being six years old, did not even fantasise about marrying Anya (and it is overkill, yet so appropriate for the comedic tone of SxF) With panels like this one, I wonder if this is actually a parody of shoujo fantasies, inspired by damianya doujins, or the author is really serious about this romantic trope.
To be honest, there are damianya doujins that are ridiculously charming, and follow the comedic style that SxF has and it is so refreshing. Here, those fantasies seem so serious I am inclined to believe it is just feeding shoujo readers.
-Conclusion-
Yes, there are fics and doujins that do a much better job at using the crazy and hillarous setting of a tsundere boy crushing on a mind-reader... A tsundere's worst nightmare.
However, this story has not earned that tone yet. It feeds from the premise of Hogwarts with a teen damianya... but both worlds (HP and SxF) are set and well-constructed. This one not yet.
This is a confusing setting instead, I am reading this as a (serious) romantic story (shoujo) with some supernatural/magic environment and bits of comedy. But also, perhaps it is just a comedic shoujo with a HP/damianya parody; a parody of both shoujo and HP/damianya ship; an homage to SxF damianya... Or simply a confusing combination of shoujo tropes with zero creativity (nothing we are presented tries to be original) The humour/comedic tone is just not good either.
Speaking of... and considering that Damian and Any are in primary school and are just little kids, these two have so much charm. She can read minds, yes, but she is young (it is implied she is 4 or 5 and not 6 like Damian and the rest of her little classmates) Therefore, Anya cannot identify that Damian has a crush on her, and Damian, as a little boy, does not know how to deal with a crush. The insults are not cruel, they compete with each other and they also care for each other in a naive, adorable way. But here... Aria just unlocked this mind-reading ability, so maybe it would have been more interesting to see her confused by his feelings towards her, as a first time mind-reader, making the comedy more intriguing. But no, she clearly reads him and concludes he is misunderstood and wants to help him (?)
The fantasies he has (kiss, carrying her bridal-style) are so disconnected... Even with the lame flashback, we have no reason to understand why he seems so infatuated other than Aria being pretty and choosing to ignore his dark reputation. He does not even know her (ok a boy crushing on a pretty girl does not need more) And when Jade gets to know her just a bit, it is to realise she is useless. And the crush seems to be at least the same or worse (wedding!!!) But again, I cannot help to remember how Damian started his crush: it was earned. We see him noticing Anya at the student ceremony and smugly believes she is the one crushing on him. Such a conceited brat. Then she punches that very smug face (priceless!) and you cheer for Anya. And then she tearfully apologises for punching him. Damian realises he does like her, we are shown his now celebrated damian-shoujo-filter... and we have to adore this kid. Poor Damian runs away embarrassed and disgusted (he is a child) And then their friendship develops, with comedy and nice moments that do progress their connection (keeping it in line with their age) Anya does not take advantage of Damian's feelings for her, as she is clueless about these.
Tumblr media
But with Jade and Aria, I found no chemistry, nothing to really empathise with Jade's feelings towards her other than she smiles too much and has the standard kawaii looks. Compare that to how badass Anya is, she stood her ground, yet she was such a sweetie when she genuinely felt sorry for punching him. She is not necessarily pretty all the time, but Damian's shoujo-filter sees her as such a cute girl. I insist: the crush is earned. I would have crushed on Anya, too. With Jade? Not really.
Conversely, I also struggled to understand why would Aria care for such a jerk, no matter how pure his actual feelings are. Yeah, we need to wait for him to realise, and publicly accept he is not actually a killer and he has this heroic streak blah blah. But I am not even intrigued by this potential either. Moreover, I mentioned that Anya did not take advantage of Damian's feelings as she is not aware of these. Aria declares this mind-reading ability will make her "feel guilty" and "she will not touch anyone again"... yet she definitely touches Jade, and does use his secret to approach him. How noble.
Regarding this mind-reading ability, with Anya, we don't know much (yet) other that she was experimented on since birth (or was she born with the ability?) With Aria, we are shown a simple flashback of her Mum mentioning this ability as "high level magic only used by some bloodlines with excellent magic manipulation skills" and that some Popwells have the ability. Being so useless, Aria is not in the Sue category yet... but I hope being such a special snowflake with such great blood and the cute shoujo clumsiness does not make her one.
Probably this Story has not found its place yet, and I am definitely not the target group. But I would have never considered myself the target group for the crush of a 1st grader like Damian, and here I am. I will read the next chapters until I confirm my suspicion, but this is definitely not my cup of tea.
If you like this, it is okay, too. It is simple (very, very simple), easy to read, and does not seem to deceive anyone: Aria will eventually fall for the misunderstood tsundere with a secret heart of gold, and probably more shoujo tropes will be added to the story (boy saves girl, exes, competitors, jealousy, his family of evil magicians...)
1/5 only 1 for some decent artstyle. Zero/few backgrounds making the art super amateur and lazy (only faces and people) And lack of originality.

QIAN THE KISSER lmaooo my ultimae attack is just plopping a heart shape pillow onto everyone that does 99% of total HP damage... i am uncreative these days lilikags only exists because my first oc ever evolved into the sister of kageyama tobio from hq.. which i was obsessed with when i entered this site. nazu-yume turned into nazukisser one day and i do not regret my only ever URL change for a blog that didn't completely change its purpose. riddle-lovehearts was cute on my end. i just think it was cute. but sakunyas is so so so cute its so you very smart indeed
oh these are exams administered not by the school itself but uh. by a company. who charges like 90 dollars per exam. that you statistically will probably not pass. and everyone buys into it because at least taking the course shows you try hard. which helps you get into a good university. better if you scored a 4 or 5, which then again you need to pay to report to Each School You Apply To
when will the collegeboard (this company) get competition that knocks it off its fucking high horse
yeah im taking calc ab which is like. calc 1? and calc bc is calc 1 and 2 in the same amt of time? maybe its bcs all the smart kids go into calc bc is prob why the pass rate is good
oh yeah uh, the grading goes like ... this. they have very strict guidelines on how to grade. so for frq (free response question) if like any of x, x, or x are true, score whatever number it tells you to. if the response gets past those and if any of x x or x are true, score a 6 or smth. and whether the response reached that, depends on the ap graders, who are stuck into this huge place in like idk minnesota and they just grade all day. all day. like they have a quota of like 200 or 300 exams to go through and grade. for mcq its either right or wrong the computer can grade that they prob just scan it all in the scantron
for language yeah it depends on the teacher and how they prepare you for the test over the years you learn the language idk if you did the STAMP test or whatever but i got like one of the top scores in the class for speaking, a 5 5 6 7 (reading, writing, listening, speaking) so technically i have a good chance at ap japanese exam but am i going to sit through sensei's class for another year? hell the fuck no.
Tumblr media
i have no idea where they got that, because i was like "tf is happening" this entire year. so like i don't know. but i passed.
ANYWAYS waaaaa ive been taking a break so its really hard for me to accept that i am hardworking even though a lot of people say so? maybe its because like every time i slack i get scolded by someone at home LOL but ive been resting the last 6 days so yeah (spring break)
thankyouuuu if i gibe up all my hobbies i really wont have anything left for me so i have to just. idk find some way to enjoy at least one of them and stick with it till i find something that brings me a lot of joy again 👍🏻someday
anyways sorry this ended up being Extremely Long i can go off about the collegeboard forever. they sent me a text yesterday saying that ap exams are coming up.
jesus christ i'm not surprised you're stressed it sounds so insane. feels like the more you read about it the more braincells you lose ;; i won't complain about the spanish system every agai-- well no i will because it sucks ass but you get the point ;;;
having at least one hobby you can go to to disconnect from responsabilities it's pretty much a need tbh writing is fun. drawing. having an insane brainrot over a cute bunch of pixels <3 anything works as long as it makes your life a bit easier. sometimes even silly things like talking to someone, finding a new game etc

Would you ever write Chimeriad playing other Tales games and commenting on them ;D
That’d be interesting. I bet Gaius would have a lot of things to say about the Kimlascan royalty. He and Wingul would probably be disappointed there isn’t an option to have Natalia stage a coup d’état.
...you know, that could be a fun idea for a playthrough liveblogging...

Writing is so weird for me to be so honest
Like I've been writing for as long as I can remember, fanfic shit before I even knew what fanfic was, me and my friend Sarah used to tell each other stories about our HP self insert OCs in like 5th grade. I have a whole plastic storage tub of notebooks filled with random fanfic and original writing going back to middle school. I'm 29. Some of those notebooks are old enough to vote.
And I've never finished anything lmao. Even stuff where I'm like "this is a oneshot!" I never considered really finished, because there's always some other connected idea.
Anyways I haven't shared any of my writing outside of like, posting things here on tumblr that I know only 3 specific people will read, since like. Before I joined the army??? I think?? Back when I was still using ff net lmao and it was like old Naruto and KH stuff and the one Yume Nikki fic I still wish I had finished, so like 8 years I think.
I hadn't even really been writing much at all this year, outside of a really self-indulgent Warden Surana/Warden Carver Hawke fic that never left my phone notes and will never see daylight bc it's just for me. And then I started replaying FE:A in July and realized I wanted to write about Inigo and Gerome, and I did it! I fuckin opened up my neglected AO3 and I spit out two chapters, and like 300 people read my story and I lost my mind! Three Hundred People! More than my damn high school graduating class. I never in my life would have thought 300 people would want to read my writing lmao
And then of course FE3H dropped and I was like. This is a new fandom, there's not a lot of content out for the ship I want to see, I have a small idea of something I would like to read, I should write it. I'm going to cook this food because the fandom is hungry. And my small idea wound up being a fucking 5k fic, my first smut fic ever, and today it got its hundredth bookmark. 100 fucking people read and bookmarked my horny fic in just one month. Two days after I posted that, I spit out a comedy fic that is currently THREE SHORT of FIVE HUNDRED kudos!!!! Five (5) hundred!!! Like, I'm Math Lady Meme over here trying to imagine 500 different individuals reading and enjoying something I wrote. That is TWICE my graduating class.
So of course, not satisfied with what I had produced, I went out and wrote a 6k fic of a rare pair that was basically entirely smut and the start of a series, because my brain is 100% on Clown Hours, and then made the second part a complete left-field crackpair, and people. Still love it. No one has come to end my life, no one has come with the torches my LJ and FFnet childhood promised. Instead they are praising me and I appreciate it but I still feel like a huge fool lmao!!
Like I'm so scared of negative feedback that I have literally stopped myself from writing things or sharing things for years, and in just one month of sharing things I have gotten so much positive response its overwhelming. I've seen my fics mentioned twice now in the wild while scrolling Twitter, by complete strangers. I bit the bullet and recced one of my fic to someone asking for my rare pair and people like it! I am pretty sure my first smut fic spawned a gift fic for someone else who commented they were interested in a rare OT3 I hinted at!
Anyways I've spent the last week alternately rereading everything I've written this month and going "fuck what the hell this is bile" or feeling like the Palpatine "Unlimited Power" gif even though this is the most attention and 'success' I've ever known in a fandom space, so. This is literally the most productive I've been with writing in years, I've put up 20k words on AO3 since the end of July and I still have like. 6 chapters of this story finished and waiting to be posted if I can just get the damn 2nd chapter out of the way and one of them, all by itself, is 4k. I've been writing like crazy lmao.
This was kind of a ramble but I've been feeling bad about my writing because it's not like some other people's and that's stupid, I may not be writing as much or in the same way but I'm doing numbers for the first time and I should be proud of that.
Over 10k hits I'm gonna shit!!!
Tumblr media
Anyways I guess, like. Don't be stupid like me lmao and think no one wants to hear your idea or read your fic, or feel bad if someone else has already "done it", because no one can write it the way you will and there's always going to be someone who is starving for more of that content. I personally don't feel like my stories are that good or even original, but apparently people like them lmao! Share your stuff! You may be surprised.

Broken-Apart Heart (バラバラココロ) by Kairiki Bear
youtube
CW: Allusions to Suicide
Fun fact: when I first heard Kairiki Bear’s songs back in about... 2013, I didn’t like them at all! I dunno what’s changed, but now I really like them, and often find myself humming them (especially this and Lemming-ming).
This was partly driven by how much I like this song in general, and partly, like my SNOBBISM translation, by the errors I found in the most-watched subtitled version on Youtube.
Also, an important part of the song (what the numbers mean) seems to be left out a lot!
I did get a little bit biased towards representing the rhythm of the Japanese here, that’s why in the chorus there’s some repeated words and the English is split up to the syllables of ‘Jin jin jin’.
I also have a fair amount notes for this song down the bottom!

NOTES
(1) This is an important part of the song! I knew that Kairiki Bear wouldn’t just have random numbers in the song with no meaning, seeing how they like wordplay just as much as Maretu, and the later use of kanji and numbers seals the deal. These numbers have definite meaning! But how did I get that meaning?
The use of both English and Japanese readings creates a natural barrier between the first two numbers and the last two, so I could guess it was ‘Want to’ for ‘1 2′. Judging how later on, ‘3 4′ is given as 惨死, zanshi, ‘a tragic death’, I’m guessing that’s what it’s supposed to be throughout the song. Since the Japanese would be zanshi shitai, ‘I want to tragically die’, ‘want to die’ makes sense, or at least it does to me!
For the first instance of 2 2 3 4, I merely used the given kanji compound from later in the song.
(2) Sonzaikan is a word by itself in Japanese, referring to someone’s ‘presence’ (e.g. ‘his presence filled the room’), but I think it’s use here is actually a suffixed compound, sonzai-kan. This gives it the meaning of ‘a sense of existing’, which, given that most of the song is about feeling empty, fits better.
(3) This line is a mess in Japanese, there could be a lot of different interpretations here, but I think mine works even though I had to fudge it a bit.
(4) Essahoisa is a difficult phrase. It’s used in the carrying of mikoshi, Japanese portable shrines, at festivals, but doesn’t have only one use. It’s equivalent to both ‘heave ho’ and ‘hooray’, and the latter seemed to work better, so that’s what I went with
(5) Yes this is a totally valid way of translating this phrase whilst preserving the meaning. Renketsu means ‘connecting’ in mechanical/electrical sense, as does ‘series’, plus the general idea of a succession of bad things happening together is kept! Also, it’s a nice little reference for people to spot~
(6) I’m not entirely sure if there’s significance to the colour ultramarine in Japanese, and this isn’t the first time I’ve seen it used in a Vocaloid song (Jin’s Gunjou Rain comes to mind). The closest I could get is that it used to be a very valuable paint due to being made of lapis lazuli? I checked irocore, but it doesn’t give any more detail than that. 
(7) This is a pun which conflates the word shiawase for ‘happiness’, used similarly earlier in the song, with the rare, sort of made-up(?) word 死合わせ, shi-awase, which means, according to searching on google, ‘happiness from being with someone till you die’.

never being interested w going thru the books until now i still find it shocking how im able to mark alot of drarry interactions even in just one book? like i already accepted that draco doesnt really have much role in the grand scheme of things, he did get Something aside from being an attention seeker for book6 and book7 but for everything else his existence isnt that much necessary for the plot
but now i have to deal with their little interactions like how they watch each other across the great hall, arriving just to say an insult and leave, harrys disgusting thoughts like not wanting to embarrass himself in front of draco, regarding this 12 yr old kid who has not done instigated anything physical his archnemesis. like at worst hes a verbally racist parrot, maybe im just old but i just cant take a word he says seriously and yet these two dance around each other for some reason

Manga the Week of 2/3/21
SEAN: February! The most depressing month of the year! Let’s cheer ourselves up with some new titles!
Airship has two digital-first light novels: Classroom of the Elite 7.5 and The Saint’s Magic Power Is Omnipotent 3.
J-Novel Club has LOTS of stuff. Let’s start with print, as we get two new omnibuses. Banner of the Stars 1-3 is the light novel series, while How A Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom 1-2 is a collection of the manga.
ASH: The Banner of the Stars omnibus looks nice.
SEAN: Also in print: Ascendance of a Bookworm 7 (the final volume of the 2nd arc), By the Grace of the Gods 2, and In Another World with My Smartphone 14.
ASH: Hooray for more Bookworm!
SEAN: Digitally, J-Novel Club has two debuts. The Great Cleric (Seija Musou – Salaryman, Isekai de Ikinokoru Tame ni Ayumu Michi), whose manga adaptation Kodansha is already putting out here, is the first. A reincarnated Salaryman decides to try to live to a nice old age by being a healer. Little does he know…
The other debut is She’s the Cutest… But We’re Just Friends! (Ore no Onna Tomodachi ga Saikou ni Kawaii), a relatively recent series. A guy finds that the hottest girl in the school shares the same gaming hobbies he does. They quickly become best friends… so why does everyone think they’re dating? This looks cute and fun.
Also out digitally: Animeta! 5, An Archdemon’s Dilemma: How to Love Your Elf Bride 4 (manga version), Banner of the Stars 5, I Shall Survive Using Potions! 4 (manga version), Invaders of the Rokujouma!? 35, Sorcerous Stabber Orphen 10, and The World’s Least Interesting Magic Swordsman 5.
MICHELLE: Animeta! is pretty fun.
ASH: I’ve been enjoying the series, too.
SEAN: No debuts in print for Kodansha, but we do get Eden’s Zero 10, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Trinity in Tempest 2, and Witch Hat Atelier 7.
ANNA: Always happy for more Witch Hat Atelier.
ASH: Yes, indeed!
MELINDA: I realize it’s probably a very different slime, but after playing a lot of Genshin Impact, is it weird that I’m suddenly interested in that dude’s reincarnation?
The digital debut is My Dearest Self With Malice Aforethought (Shin’ai naru Boku e Satsui o Komete), a dark title from Young Magazine. Virgin Eiji wakes up one day to find a girlfriend in his bed, his friend saying he got in a fight, and no memory of the last three days. What’s going on?
Also digital: Chihayafuru 24, Otherworldly Munchkin: Let’s Speedrun the Dungeon with Only 1 HP! 3, Our Fake Marriage 5, and The Invincible Reincarnated Ponkotsu 3.
MICHELLE: I can’t let a mention of Chihayafuru go by without saying “Yay!”.
ANNA: Wooo!!!
SEAN: Believe it or not, we now move to Viz. The debut is The King’s Beast (Ou no Kemono), the latest Rei Touma series, and set in the same universe as Dawn of the Arcana. The world isn’t great: those who are half-beast, half-human are discriminated against. So our heroine serves under the king disguised as a man. This runs in Cheese!.
MICHELLE: I really liked Dawn of the Arcana and The Water Dragon’s Bride, so I expect I will like this, too!
ANNA: I like both of those series, and I enjoy it when a heroine has to disguise herself as a man, so I have high hopes for this.
ASH: Ditto what you both said! I’m looking forward to giving this manga a try.
MELINDA: I admit I’m a little tapped out on “heroine disguises herself as a man” when it’s not actually about a trans person, but I’ll give it a shot.
SEAN: Shonen! Blue Exorcist 25, Boruto 10, Chainsaw Man 3, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba 20, Dr. STONE 15, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Part 4–Diamond Is Unbreakable 8, Jujutsu Kaisen 8, Kaguya-sama: Love Is War 18, Naruto: Shikamaru’s Story (a light novel), the 5th and final volume of Samurai 8, Seraph of the End 20, and We Never Learn 14.
ASH: I somehow missed reading the second volume of Chainsaw Man, so I’ll need to fix that. Also need to play some catch up with JoJo, too.
SEAN: Shoujo! Far fewer titles here. Shortcake Cake 11 and Yona of the Dawn 28. (Then again, Yona should count as 4 normal shoujo titles.)
MICHELLE: I’m happy about both of these.
ANNA: Me too!
ASH: Yay, Yona!
SEAN: Yen Press has two debuts. Sasaki and Miyano runs in Gene Pixiv, is based off a webcomic, and sounds sort of like the BL version of Horimiya.
MICHELLE: That’s intriguing!
ASH: Ooooh, when you describe it like that, I may need to check it out!
MELINDA: Sounds like this could be great!
SEAN: The Vampire and His Pleasant Companions (Kyuuketsuki to Yukai na Nakama-tachi) is a title that runs in Bessatsu Hana to Yume. A BL title based off of a novel, with art by the creator of Baby & Me, for those who recall that old Viz series. This is nothing like Baby & Me, but has lots of hot men, hot vampires, and hot vampire men.
MICHELLE: I was just reading about this mangaka yesterday because Kodansha announced their March debits and one of them is Ragawa-sensei’s Those Snow White Notes (Mashiro no Oto). Must be her time to shine.
ANNA: I have to admit, I’m intrigued by all these combinations of hotness.
MELINDA: There are some things that never get old. And by “some things” I mean “hot vampires”.
SEAN: Also out next week: Bungo Stray Dogs 17, Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody 10 (manga version), Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? On the Side: Sword Oratoria 14 (manga version), and Sword Art Online Progressive Barcarolle of Froth 2 (also a manga version, though the LN doesn’t have the subtitle).
Chilled to the bone this winter? Heat up with some manga. What are you buying?
By: Sean Gaffney

My 2017 Birthday Fics!
I sent out an all call Birthday Present request for August 19th, 2017, and my wonderful Tumblr SPN Family did not disappoint! 
I got NINE wonderful fics written for me, and I don’t even know how many Happy Birthday wishes sent to me via inbox and message.
Tumblr media
Thank you all so much for making this a special birthday for me!!
BUT WAIT!
I want to share my birthday joy!
So, as promised, below the read more there is a promo for each of the fics my friends wrote for me, and I think you should check them out, because they are awesome. :)
P.S. If you sent me something and I didn’t respond, please know that Tumblr didn’t give it to me! If you were going to write and forgot/ran out of time 1. It’s totally okay, I understand, and 2. I’m totally okay with accepting late gifts if you still want to give. ;)
The following fics are in no particular order, and are all worth reading. :)
Tumblr media
@plaidstiel-wormstache:  I’d call “Racing Hearts” fluff with an edge when Dean takes on a challenger in an impromptu street race with surprising results. She even wrote me a sequel because I loved this so much (and because she’s an awesome friend/person)!
@plaidstiel-wormstache:  “Hit the Brakes” was just that—a sequel that slammed on the brakes and took this fic in a whole different direction. Definitely read it, but be careful of whiplash!
Tumblr media
@waywardjoy:  “Joyride” was a fast paced heated moment between Dean and a reader he knows from before—beautifully written, especially if you’re a car-lover, like Dean is canonically! Brava bestie! 
Tumblr media
@wi-deangirl77:  “Back from Hell” is a reader insert to my favorite episode “Lazarus Rising” this little fic nearly broke my heart—but it was a damn good read! Dean x Reader and harsh reality + a Dean fresh from Hell + an emotionally damaged reader = angst….but worth it. Check it out!
Tumblr media
@katymacsupernatural: through @spnfamilybirthdays:  “Birthday Invitations” was a fantasy—a wonderful day leading to a wonderful night with two of my favorite characters (Dean and Charlie)! Sign me up, please! SFW, everything is implied, but such a delicious birthday gift.
Tumblr media
@captainemwinchester: This small ficlet, “Moving In” shows how the reader and Dean became a couple. It starts off sad but ends happy. Thanks for the birthday gift!
Tumblr media
@leatherwhiskeycoffeeplaid:  Sundae wrote me this cute little drabble about a Dean Girl Encounter where a fan of Chuck’s books recognizes Dean…and is totally chill about it. Dean is impressed with her, and is totally okay with trading on his fame for a little fun. I LOVED THIS. :D
Tumblr media
@babypieandwhiskey: “Escaping the Maze” is a teaser for an epic crossover featuring some of my fav fandoms: Superwholock, Disney, BtVS, Psych, and HP! I can’t wait to see more, because the conflict is already set up as they wander a hedge labyrinth.
Tumblr media
@just-another-busy-fangirl through @spnfamilybirthdays:  “Interrogating Animals” is a cute little fluffy Castiel x Reader fic that I quite enjoyed; I could totally see myself doing that, looking after Cass. :) He is a precious angel after all.
Thank you all once again!
Tagging my forevers so they can enjoy these fics. Show some love everyone!

Aqours 1st Live LV Thoughts
It’s a rainy day (typical Vancouver weather)
My throat is sore from all the screaming (srsly actual screaming)
Both my arms are disabled after 3 hours of waving the glowsticks
It’s wet and cold af and I’m hungry (I came straight to the theatre after work so no dinner), so I’m eating hot cup noodle LOL
Even after all of the above, I’M SO EUPHORIC AF LIKE OMFG WHATTA EXPERIENCE I need to ramble asap nvm I have to wake up for work in… 4 hours LOL
Tumblr media
Very long rambling under the cut:
I went to the Theatre straight after work because I was worried about the lineup and, boy, I made the right decision because 5minutes after I got there, the line suddenly quadrupled the original length.
Tumblr media
Yes bad pic I know, but at least I remembered to snap a shot before chatting with nearby nice fellow livers! I have to say, I was surprised by the male:female ratio - I’m certain it was 65%-35%!! or even more girls!
Anyway, as we were lining up, I saw people who brought their nesoberis, badges, keychains etc., while I only have a lonely orca keychain on my purse because, hey I did come straight from work, there’s only so much gear I can bring conveniently XD;;; Someone brought a boom box and blasting songs, so when Aozora came on we were all doing calls on the sidewalk, lolol!!
Once we got in, we got that nice Aqours post cards with the girls’ signatures +_+ and the back looks like this:
Tumblr media
yes I still use iPhone 4S as my main phone so excuse the quality
and we also get one smol glowstick for free! I snapped mine way before the LV started lmao, but it was a brilliant purple Mari color XD
I made friends with a few Livers and chatted a bit with the girl beside me (we both adore Honoka and Chika, loving them as the leaders and technically neither of us could pick a fav girl because we love them all!!). Maa, I told her my fav girl is orca (because I fangirl her the most and I did bring her keychain XD), so she gave me an extra glowstick that’s green - Kanan’s color! So I ended up having #kanamari glowsticks lmfao I’m such trash
Tumblr media
Before LV started tho, we decided to move to the front (I think the 2nd row in fact) and later on that was def the right decision because lmao I stood up the majority of the LV , sorry for the people behind us several rows back XD;;;;;;
A nice guy was handing out a copy of teamonibe’s fan callbook!
Tumblr media
To the left, there are a bunch of hardcore(?) guys with the UO sticks (a box in fact), ready to get rollin’. I thought they would disturb/decrease enjoyment of the LV but, I was wrong! For me at least, their hoarse cries, cheers and sincere calls really added to the LV experience so for that, I’m thankful they were there!
As the theatre fills up (not completely full tho), the guy with the boombox continues to play music and… well, when Psychic Fire played, I friggin’ just lost it LOOOOOL FooFOO!!! BIBI BIBI BIBIBI!!!!!!!!! My HP nearly turned grass-green before the LV even started X’DD From that moment my switch turned off and I’m total Liver mode.
We did calls with the background music, but when the Intro screen came on, we all lost it and started cheering as each girl came on the screen. I vaguely remember standing up and cheering (read: screaming) Kanan and Dia >_>;;;
Aozora is the opener and GDI I DEFINITELY SCREECHED LIKE HOLY SHIT BIG SCREEN HIGH DEFINITION MY AWESOME GALS THAT’S AQOURS FFFFFFFCKKKKKKKK
I was all sweaty and I can feel the ache in my arms after the song ended. XD!!! Maa, I was (willingly) spoiled by all the twitter and posts so I knew exactly what lineup are the songs. Even then, that trepidation and excitement as the intro to KoiAq came on. *_* SHUKASHUU HER SMILE IS BRILLIANT SHE EXTENDS MY LIFE BY SEVERAL YEARS LIKE OMFG SHE’S SO, SO CUTE
Ahem, member intro time. Gawd, now, this is what makes LV sooo much fun! Doing the call/response with the VAs! Due to all the niconamas, I know each by heart and it was amazing to actually scream my adoration for them, especially with fellow fans!!! I also notice Aikyan, Shukashuu and Anchan are the most popular (at least around my area which is the front, I have no idea what’s going on with the mid + backrows loooooool)
I myself bounced up and fcking SCREAMED MIKAN, MIKAN, MI~KA~N with Anchan’s call lmaoooo (and let out a very girly screech when suwawa hugged shukashuu in her intro lmfao I can’t help it)
Aqours Heroes is a very fun song to do calls with but lmao my HP was definitely dark red by then X’DDDD So grateful for the intermission. My respect for the VAs spiked again for having such stamina!
The intermission chibis are so darn cute. I finally understood why people said they’re upgraded compared to previous LL concerts - the eyes and expressions are def way more animated! Mari’s (>ω<) is beyond cute.
Hand in Hand is a very fun song, I remember twirling my glowsticks like an idiot but this was also when I noticed my purple glowstick is dying OTL
Daisuki has quite the uniformed calls, or at least we’re able to grasp the rhythm better than HiH. The MC afterwards was adorabs. Sks is criminally kawaii.
Yume de Yozora is beautiful. I don’t remember much except that it really is beautiful, something you just sit back and enjoy.
Another intermission. The Ramen vs Shuumai vs Curry bit was hilarious af xD I wasn’t able to concentrate much tho because I knew the subunit songs are next and based on the fanarts and magazine photos, I already know I’ll die.
GenkiZenkaiDDD came on and I was deceased. Followers of this blog should know I’m utter CYR garbage and fck, no, really, Anchan, Shukashuu, Shokunin AiAi absolutely slayed me. The outfits really, really look good on them, photos alone do not do them justice. DDD is such a fun song and we all had a blast! I remember actually, jumping, many times (as in my feet really left the ground…) I LOVE CYARON *actually roared that near the end of DDD I was garbage I cannot be stopped xD;;;
The MC, well, I don’t know how I survived it because I love them so much like omfg???? The girl in my row, a You/Sks fan, also ded like me. The fanboys around us were slaughtered. I distinctively remember hearing a hoarse cry of bliss at how cute they were. RIP that gentleman lmao.
Next, perhaps I’m biased af because this is my fav song, but Yozora is breathtaking. Beautiful, mesmerizing, each of their facial expressions and movements, holy sht. Shukashuu’s solo ballet bridge, fccccck.
The Dun-Dun-DunDun! for Torikoriko Please came on and I instantly hopped back onto my feet. If my screams at Suwawa and Arisha-sama annoyed anyone then I apologize here XD;;; Like I said, my switch turned off. I’m normally a quiet girl (surprise surprise) but I think I had screamed several years worth of shrieks tonight…
But yes, Arisha is… like, wow. Goddess much? (Many fanboys perished here yes) And that bit where Suwawa fixed Arisha’s hair so naturally and smoothly too like wtf just happened?!?!?!?!?! (unfortunately I only heard myself scream at that. So yes, the person who screamed then was me.)
Tokimeki, a goddess song, was indeed a goddess song here. It was also beautiful and ethereal. My soul was healed and I can die happily(again)
Strawberry Trapper, expected, was the most popular song but, hey, I was shrieking my lungs out too! They were sooooooooooo fcking cool! Aikyan, Rkk, Ainyan really nailed this song! The whole theatre was in uproar and deservedly so
MC showcases how smol and adorabs Ainyan is. I love her. I understand why Suwawa cuddles her so much because I wanna give her hagus too. Also, Aikyan was in total Yohane-sama mode. The guy behind me, a total Aikyan-tard, was killed several times throughout this MC
GNGK was a really fun song to do calls! It doesn’t deplete your HP drastically but still a lot XD
Intermission was a condensed anime summary up until ep9. During the YouChika scenes, my new friend smiled “YouChika Confirmed yo” and I returned that same grin “YouChika is real yo”. Fcuk yeah! (P.S. we both ship YouRiko too tho lmfao). The ChikaRiko window scene got a lot of cheers. My heart was filled with warmth at all the cheers at the μ's  mentions/scenes. I was the one who screeched Honoka if anyone heard X”D;;;;;; I also went batshit crazy at the kanamari hug scene I’M NOT SORRY FOR WAVING MY KANAMARI GLOWSTICKS LIKE THE GARBAGE I AM
Mijuku Dreamer. :’D don’t have much to say here - it’s everything I’ve wanted for this godly song with the godly outfits. The ThirdYears Hug near the end is 10 harasho
Finally, the long awaited, OmoiYo. We’re all already cheering for Rikyako when she got up to the piano. But omfg?? The close up shot of her swiping the piano keys in the intro like holy fck so badass????? RIKYAKO!!!! (I remember screaming her name until my voice went hoarse and I had to shut up for a while lmfao)
MC was great. Aikyan was great. KyanAi was adorabs. onee-sama was onee-sama. Shukashuu welcoming rkk back made the YouRiko fan inside me roll (along with fellow fans beside me lmao)
Todokanai is another fun song to do calls for. Since I recovered quite a bit of my HP earlier, I went back to actually jumping and screaming >_>;;;
Intermission again, more anime summary. We all did Mari’s “Oh my god, oh my god, OH MY GOD” bit X’DDD it was fun af
MiraiTicket outfits are godsend. The musical before the song is sooo well-acted. Those who didn’t like the anime part or felt it odd/out of place (like myself), would surely have their opinion changed after this. Anchan truly is a natural. Also, again, YouChika confirmed yo >8D
WE SAY YOSORO~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KimiKoko surprised me - it got me, really, really hyped up. The calls are really fun to do and we were all very united in this. Those leapfrog jumps tho. Gawd, I’m so proud of my girls :’D
Encore time - a guy behind my row was shouting “A~sore~!” after each of our “Enco-ru!” XDDD Funny af. This is also when the UO guys are prepping the next box of of UOs… oh and did I mention one of them was wearing a Shiitake suit/outfit?
The Encore animation was great. I remember Shiny-ing with Mari, and screamed Kanan and flailing my (still alive) green glowstick. And, ofc, Yosoro, Ganbaruby, and Mirai zura~
PopsHeart, I love this song!!! I already practiced through the MiniLive so, yup, I was back to jumping and shrieking and used up 2/3 of my HP flailing but goddam it’s such a fun song!!!!!
ED is a very popular song~ We’re all pretty much singing and serenading throughout this bit, especially Singing My Song for my Dream~ Also, Anchan and Arisha hugged. This is very important.
Closing MC. Off the top of my head, I remember screaming Ainyan when smolshiny is trying her best holding her tears ;A; and definitely screeched my throat sore for King’s tears. Again, I went batshit crazy at Suwawa. Sorry for the people around me again XD;;;;;
Last but not least ofc, was Anchan. Iono, when she thanked the audience for the live, my eyes felt damp. If I wasn’t so hyped (and dehydrated then), I might have actually cried. This must be the Live feels? I can’t really describe it - it’s a myriad of emotions, happy to be here to enjoy this, with fellow fans… it truly is amazing.
0>1 as the last song, we were def all jumping at this point. The UO guys went all out, so did we XDDDDD
Overall, this had been an incredible experience for me. Never had I had the opportunity to express my love for a fandom so much, so earnestly and full-heartedly, surrounded by strangers who also at that moment then were all connected by our mutual love for Aqours.
I had a lot of fun, it was definitely a fantastic night. I sincerely wish there will be more opportunities like this in Canada/Vancouver for future LLS events, and I also urge fellow fans to attend such events because, honestly, you don’t know what you’ve been missing out just watching niconamas etc.
P.S. even as I’m typing this, my green glow stick is still alive… how… I guess Kanan’s stamina being limitless is realz yo

What are some of your favorite games?
Oooohhhh boy
Picking favorites is hard especially depending on my mood and how recently I played them but lesseee
long post so putting it under a read more but tl;dr Cave Story, TWEWY, and Yume Nikki are pretty cool as are some other games
Cave Story (PC)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is what I think of when I think of the ideal “video game”. It just feels like what a video game should be to me. The great artstyle (and the + version has an increased resolution which is also great), the fantastic music and sound design (which again the + has three variations to choose from, “original 8-bit-esque”, “new wiiware interpretation-esque”, and “remastered renditions…esque”)…
and of course the gameplay is phenominal with an arsonal of useful weapons and great difficulty (the secret dungeon is incredibly hard and I’ve only beaten it once but man it felt good to beat it), the world and story are phenomenal, I’ve played 72+ hours worth of this game (at least five full playthroughs of it) and I loved every moment of it. Only thing I haven’t done is some of the ridiculous A-rank achievements, beat Boss Rush (got to the secret boss at least), or beat Hard Mode (got to the final final boss).
The gameplay is “travel around these different areas, shoot at monsters, platform and explore. Your weapons level up by collecting little triangles enemies drop, and de-level when you get hit. There’s three levels of weapons, and you can replace certain weapons at points in the story.”
I also always saved the person because when I first started playing this game, the only thing I looked up was “are there any missables” and I had a spoiler free list of things I should look out for and the most important ones were all about saving them so yeah.
also this entire game, soundtrack, visuals, everything, was made by one person and it blows my mind.
The World Ends with You (Nintendo DS)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this game is incredible.
Like. This game utilized everything the DS had to offer and it was incredible. I discovered it because of Nomura, the guy who worked on Kingdom Hearts, worked on this (and it really shows in the art). At first I thought it was just some random rhythm game, but then they announced it might appear in KH3D and I was like “okay fine I’m getting it”
and I got it and it is fantastic. You play as a punk antisocial kid named Neku, who hates people and wants to be left alone. Then stuff happens and your forced to play this game and end up with a partner and a timer on your hand (the timer is story only so no worries about that).
You play the game on both screens, playing as both characters with a shared HP bar. Early on you’ll have it on Auto-Play which means the AI can play the top screen, but once you learn how to manually play and combo multipliers together between the two screens, it becomes incredible.
The top screen is buttons (you can use either the D-pad or the ABXY buttons depending on your hand orientation), where you do attacks which end in a certain symbol. Get the right symbols and you can get stuff for a special combined attack. The bottom screen is the bulk of the action, where you play as Neku. You get pins and any way you can think of using the bottom screen, there’s a pin for it. Swipe, flurry of swipes, circles, taps, blowing into the mic, yelling into the mic, closing the DS itself (the only other game I know that did that was Hotel Dusk and mannnn did it take me forever to figure that out)
it’s so fun and hectic and good and I love it. It’s RPG-ish, it has equipment, stats, and a fantastic way of handling everything. You can replay any point in the story, you can set any BGM music you want for the pause menu, you can adjust your level with a slider and change difficulty at any time (and of course the lower level/higher difficulty means better percentages for rare specific item drops to collect), you have hundreds of pins to level up in a variety of ways, you have food you can feed your characters and they all have their individual likes and dislikes, you can dress them up with fashion for equipment (though no in-game model changes unfortunately), it’s so good with so many unique and convenient things
the music is great and skate and atmospheric and good. The art is great, the writing and characters are wonderful and snarky and a good amount of puns from some characters. There’s an underlying mystery and it’s like “ohhh that happened” “OHH WAIT THAT HAPPENED INSTEAD OH MAN” “ …. wait no no you mean THAT was what happened oh god” and yeah gooood stuff.
also everyone is like “oh man where do I find this game I can never find it” and I just got it for 20 dollars on Amazon in 2012 and I check and it’s still 22 dollars on Amazon so yeah (there’s also a phone port that I hear is better looking with full versions of all the music but the entire top screen removed which I feel is sad because it removes the whole “you need your partner” thing and simplifies the gameplay)
Yume Nikki (PC)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
it’s
Tumblr media
it’s an experience
Tumblr media
Yume Nikki is like. I can’t recommend it as a game, because in terms of gameplay it’s pretty basic and open. But mann, it is some kind of art and I love it.
It’s an exploration game in RPG Maker 2003. You play as a girl known as Madotsuki, you’re in a room with a balcony, you have a TV and a video game system with one dreadful game for it, and all you can do otherwise is sleep. And when you sleep, you get access to 12 doors to explore, and can collect 24 Effects. … And that’s it. That’s the game. The only words in this game are the names of the effects. Some help, some are purely cosmetic, and some have specific uses or make NPCs do certain things.
It’s such a surreal, alien game. Just big areas to wander around in to find things, and then go deeper and deeper into the areas to newer areas. It’s all exploration. There’s no explanation, the things you see are so abstract that it’s mindblowing, and the creator… has never explained anything and has mysteriously vanished after the 10th update for the game in like 2008. Someone’s maintaining the webpage, and people say they have their approval to make things like merchandise and such, but to the general public this Kikiyama fellow is as mysterious as the game they created and it’s such a mystery.
I of course fell in love with the game. I used a written guide to give me a general idea of where things were (I only had trouble finding like two-three things and needed a visual aid for them), and I barely ran into the famous NPCs that are as iconic as the game is.
and man it’s incredible how this game has gotten popular and how people try to fill in the blanks. Like, people have their own agreed upon names for these NPCs. Like, Madotsuki is the only real “name” we have. Uboa (because of the scream), Monoko and Monoe (Monochrome Girls), Poniko (Pony-tail Girl), and most surprising of all the fan favorite Seccom Masada (Sentimental Komuro Michael Sakamoto Dada-sensei) how that got agreed upon I’ll never know
OKAY SO UH that’s pretty good for now right
honorable mentions:
Knytt series (exploration metroidvania-ish game that let’s you climb walls and collect stuff and explore to good ambient music, I recommend all of them including Within a Deep Forest which is a game where you play as a ball, which also crosses over with Knytt in Knytt Underground. Knytt Underground is fantastic and pretty and great collecting and exploring game but mannnn is the writing and character artwork god-awful, at least to me. It also has less abilities than the other games but what it does have it makes great use out of)
Animal Crossing New Leaf (I have played this game every day since launch and it is so relaxing, just live in a town and talk to neighbors and buy and sell stuff and decorate things)
Hyper Light Drifter (a very pretty game with great difficulty and visuals and wandering around and dying a lot but in fair ways. It’s a top down hack-n-slash-n-some-shooting game with fast dashing and deadly enemies and deadlier bosses)
999 Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors (a thriller visual novel/escape the room type game for the DS, the game itself was okay, the story does a fantastic job of making you believe what its talking about is actually real and deals with some theories that screw with you, and solving the mystery and figuring out who the bad guy is was mind-blowing. The other games in the series are alright and handle the gameplay better but mannn nothing will beat the way this game’s story messed with me)
Kingdom Hearts (this is more of a past me but yeah I used to love the action RPG of this game but I really need to replay the first two games to see how they feel since the newer games have left me “ehh”) Uhh off the top of my memory Re:coded was the most fun (fight me) and CoM had the best story, KH2 was too easy and I want to play the FM of it eventually, KH1 was great but had those early issues and stuff but also need to replay it.
Final Fantasy IX (I still haven’t beaten it legit but I sat and watched my neighbor play it when I was 9-10 and it was fantastic and I was always traumatized by Blank’s petrification because as a kid I never undid it, also Kuja is the best character of anything)
Grow Home (a short little game that deserves love because it’s so simple and you just grow plant towers in a pretty world and try to reach space)
Splatoon (listen man the aesthetics are great the gameplay is great and fast and tight and it’s a shooter that kept me active and it’s unique and I love it and I love my Splattershot Jr and character customization)
mmmm that’s all my mind wants to think of today so yeah~ I swear I’m always forgetting some really good ones too.
also uhhh Saints Row 2 was the best game I can imagine that genre being (good size map, minigames, huge amount of customization, good mix of humor and drama), and the Tony Hawk series (specifically 2 and Underground 2) those are also good games though I haven’t played the Tony Hawk games in ages (had THPS1-4, THUG2, and THAW, rented the original Underground though and did all the story stuff but never goofed around in it like UG2. American Wasteland was blehhh and didn’t bother with anything afterwards)

ive been slowly reading the original hp books and also drarry fics and i will never understand the constant assassination of lucius' character in fanon like 😭😭
im still in book3 currently but ive already seen depictions of lucius physically abusing draco at an early age ala vernon with harry and i Dont understand it cuz lucius has been spoiling draco ever since he showed up😭 yes hes cold usually and wants draco to do better but honestly thats just rich people shit and at the same time he tells draco to "touch nothing" in borgin and burkes and this boy who was very clearly touching smth just starts complaining cuz he thought his dad was gonna buy him a broom... like this is routine for them, draco is very comfortable around his dad that he goes on to ramble about harry to him, where he does it sm at different points in time that lucius has to shut him up for this one😭 the point of draco is that hes a sheltered kid fed with rly shitty beliefs and ideals that him being a physically abused kid doesnt work, he has a diff type of horrible parents
and i also think as much as lucius is a horrible person all around the one positive thing he has is his love for his family. he couldve easily just let narcissa find draco during the final battle but he was looking WITH her, as well as his balls to ask voldy to postpone the battle until he finds draco first
dont get me wrong i have no desire for fics or fanon to depict him as a good person or someone who needs to be redeemed, i just want his horrible-ness to be depicted Right gmekngmdg like its way more interesting for draco to face the fact that lucius(+narcissa if im gonna be honest) has never truly wronged him and that he still loves them but theyre not v good influences in life at all and he needs to be with them in small doses only, than a physical abuse that we legit already see w dracos supposed foil
