#and all everyone would talk about is how much it was ''just like Kaguya lol''
Hmm, so the new event has Kriemhild acting like a responsible guardian to the slap-dash group of servants but...
Looks like the writers not only deliberately side-stepped the Brunhilde-Kriemhild conflict with an excuse, but also the Etzel-Kriemhild political marriage with another excuse.
It's one thing to say it's a political marriage, but another to say that neither party remembers it much at all. I was half expecting Kriem to blow her top once the mustache came off...Damn me, I'm starting to grow apathetic towards pulling her if this is how sanded off her Fate counterpart is going to be. Mind you, this is how I also felt with Tesla once I realized he was only going to be used just for one damn joke.
But it is nice to know she likes mocha. Now she and Siegfried can enjoy coffee together too with their master.
My apologies for the negativity. I'm just...disappointed at how the writers keep making easy outs for themselves.
I've seen both the Kriem acting like a guardian and the Altera/Atilla/Etzel situation being brought up, and the latter is... hmm. Not what I was expecting. And not in a great way, either. As you said, it's one thing if it's just a political marriage (and it was), but neither side really remembering the whole thing???
Altera has the excuse that she was in "destroyer" mode, hence why she doesn't remember. Not a great excuse, but still serviceable. Kriemhild not remembering, though? What is the excuse for her case? It reminds me of the whole "Xiang Yu can't be summoned because no one sees him as a hero" from SIN or "Pope Johanna can't be summoned because she's fictional" from Traum - excuses that don't make a lick of sense.
Also, why is Santa Altera being used and not the regular version? I initially thought that when Kriemhild saw her, there would be some sort of reaction since she (Santa Altera) will be joining the gang during this event, but apparently not. 😒
Also she like mocha- 👀 (<- mocha fiend)

One piece X Demon Slayer
You've done Demon Slayer characters ending up in the one piece world so let's do the opposite and see how that works
Chopper somehow ending up in the world of Demon Slayer it would be interesting to see the slayer's reactions to a harmless reindeer demon that can stand in sunlight that not only doesn't have any craving for blood or even a need for it but is also stupidly good doctor
The notable reactions I think would be Shinobu, Kaguya and Tamayo
Shinobu because one her fear of furry things and two he is a doctor and arguably leagues above her in skill outside of her specialty in toxins and poisons
Tamayo I think I sort of kinship would form between the two of them
And kaguya is more Chopper taking interest in him mostly due to the curse and I am 110% sure that Chopper would immediately trying cure or at least find a treatment for his and his family's illness
-The Demon Slayers had been dispatched after reports of a strange creature, one that was wandering around in the sunlight, so it couldn’t have been a demon, unless if it was one that overcame the sun.
-Tanjiro and Rengoku arrived at the location where it had been spotted and Rengoku was able to pick up the sounds of someone crying and sniffling.
-They were not prepared to see a … “A deer?” Chopper flinched, holding onto his hat as he turned, his voice hitching, “Don’t hurt me! I’m not a demon I swear- I’m just a reindeer!!”
-Tanjiro kneeled, trying not to appear so scary, “How can you talk then?” Chopper explained that he came from another world, one filled with strange fruits called Devil Fruits, which gave those who ate them unique abilities.
-Rengoku then asked his own question, “What fruit did you eat then?” Chopper lifted a hoof, rubbing the back of his head, bashfully, telling them he ate the Human-Human Fruit, which made him more humanlike, allowing him to speak.
-After a bit of hesitation, Rengoku made the decision to bring Chopper back to HQ, something Ubuyashiki agreed on, wanting to meet this reindeer.
-When the others saw Chopper peeking from behind Rengoku, facing the wrong way so most of his body was exposed, he immediately panicked as Sanemi drew his sword, “You brought a demon back?! You idiots!!”
-Chopper was quickly crying, overwhelmed- he just wanted to go back to his friends, he wanted to go back out to sea, as Mitsuri and Tanjiro were trying to calm him down (looking like this lol).
Tumblr media
-Kagaya was the one to calm Chopper down, after he approached, “This isn’t a demon- that much I can tell.” Chopper’s voice hitched, looking up at him before seeing his face and eyes, “What happened to your face?”
-While some yelled at Chopper for the rude question, Kagaya kneeled down, explaining the curse that he was forced to endure before Chopper spoke, “If it’s a disease- I can try to help!”
-Shinobu, who was hiding behind Mitsuri, terrified of him, as she did not like small furry creatures, glared lightly, “Curses cannot be cured- believe me we tried!”
-Chopper turned and everyone saw her flinch, hiding back behind Mitsuri again who was confused on why Shinobu was so scared- Chopper was adorable!!
-To humor him, Shinobu allowed him to see her research and he went over everything, and he stunned all by rattling off information about what he could see, about what the curse was doing.
-Everyone was stunned, seeing that he was a doctor, and a very knowledgeable one at that! Chopper got to work, researching a few different things before he came up with a new medicine, one that drove the demon poison out of others, as long as the wounds were fresh, as in the poisoning had only happened within the last day or so.
-Shinobu was stunned, forgetting her fear only for a moment as she looked over his research and helped him heal the warriors who came in, on the brink of death, driving the poison out of their bodies.
-While he couldn’t heal Kagaya, something Chopper felt like a failure for, the same medicine at least took some of the pain away, letting him have a mostly normal day when he took the medicine.
-Shinobu was prideful but she knew that Chopper was a talented doctor, and admitted that to him, flinching back with a squeak after he turned with a bright smile, thanking her.
-Tamayo was invited to see this medicine by Kagaya, as he knew that she was also researching the poison that demons used, wanting to use it against demons.
-Chopper had originally been against using medicine to harm others, as it went against his code, something Tamayo sympathized with, sitting with Chopper, “There are good demons in the world, like myself and Nezuko, but it’s the demons who are bad, those who would cause unneeded suffering, slaughtering innocents, that we want to rid the world of. If this will give us an edge, to stop more suffering, I believe we should take it.”
-Her words resonated with him, as he looked down at his hooves, which made her smile softly, he was such a kind person. The world needed more people like him.
-Kagaya was very kind to Chopper, always willing to answer his questions, and Chopper was such a good doctor, wanting to do whatever he could to help with his pain.
-Kagaya would let Chopper cry when he was missing his friends, telling him all the adventures he had gone with his friends, becoming a pirate, making Kagaya smile, hearing about the fun Chopper had before he came to this world.
-Most of the Hashira respected Chopper, because his medicine had saved so many lives and had helped their leader with his suffering, but there were some, Sanemi, who still thought he was a demon, being cautious.
-Mitsuri on the other hand, was the opposite, she loved to cuddle Chopper, treating him to meals and just making him feel welcome, and Chopper was a bit dim to realize why Obanai seemed so angry with him all the time. Once Obanai realized this he did back off, seeing Chopper as a child.
-Chopper still missed his friends, and probably would, at least until he could figure out how to go home, if there was a way to go home, but at least he had a safe home and had a purpose, helping the Demon Slayer Corps, helping those who had been injured and helping them fight back against the demons who would easily take over if the Demon Slayers fell.

How it’d be to watch animes with them
A/N: While i’m working on my Mikasa x reader royal au, this little idea came to my mind. I tried to put the links when i mentioned a specific scene and speak a little about the anime in case you don’t know it.  So here it’s: 
Warnings: Me exposing my otaku self, mentions of 18+ animes (Not hentais) 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Eren -  Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen (13+)
A / N: The main characters like each other, but none wants to confess because being the person who takes the first step would also represent being the defeated person. The anime develops in a series of plans that both elaborate to make the other confess their love.
Warnings: None
It was his idea to watch an anime together since the two of you liked it a lot. You saw no harm and agreed to go to sleep with your boyfriend on Friday night. So, you would have the dawn and the weekend to see everything.
“We could watch One piece! Everybody likes"
“In three days ?! We will not finish even if we do not take breaks ”
"Naruto then?"
“Haven't you seen it all five times or more?
"But it is a classic!"
"It is also too long!"
He would sulk when he saw you reject each of his suggestions for being too big animes. The truth was, he was trying to convince you to stay longer. After much searching in the catalog, you choose to watch a short comedy of 12 episodes.
Biggest mistake ever
Eren is already annoying by nature, and after watching Kaguya-sama's two seasons he would spend the day and night trying to get you to confess to him EVEN IF YOU'VE BEEN IN LOVE FOR TWO YEARS AND HE HAS BEEN THE FIRST TO DECLARE. HIT HIM, PLEASE.
"Do you think that using such a low trick will make me give in?"
“Eren, I just got out of the shower. What trick? Wear an outfit? ”
“Showing off your skin won't make you win”
If you wanted to play with him, great. You are going to spend the day in this little game until he gets tired and just hugs you or something because he can't spend a lot of time without touching you. But if you didn't want to, just you could use that touchy side of him against him too.
"Maybe I shouldn't show you anything else then"
"Yes, of course, do- Wait what?"
"You heard"
“NO, BABE! YOU WON! I CONFESS! I LOVE YOU"
Watching anime with him would be quite an experience. For being very verbal, Eren would be the type of person who doesn't shut up watching anything. Especially, something that makes him laugh. You would see him laughing out loud and throwing himself back on the couch or on you, whether you were with him or not. You may even complain, but it would be fun to see him react to everything as immediately and naturally as an unfiltered child.
He will sing ALL the openings for the rest of the days around the house until you are humming some without realizing it.
For some reason, can I imagine him doing Chika dance ?? Yes, please film this big bear dancing like a little girl.
Tumblr media
Levi - Death parade 
A / N: Do you want to cry and hurt yourself? This is the right place. Death Parade is a story about what happens after death. The characters are sent to mysterious bars where they will be judged to decide the fate of the souls themselves. (18+)
Warnings: Suicide, depressive themes, mentions of rape and domestic violence
I don't see Levi watching many animes. In fact, I don't see him watching much anything at all. He would be the type of person who can't spend a lot of time in front of the television without feeling like he's wasting time. Which would result in a very selective and demanding taste.
He would always read the reviews about the film, and after watching it, he would make his own. Ever. No exceptions. Unlike Impossible-to-be-quiet-Eren, Levi would be silent to be able to capture and understand all the details. This is interesting because getting his attention is a difficult task. But once it's done, he is 100% focused on the story and immersed in the characters.
So, after reading about it, he would agree to watch Death Parade with you.
He would have low expectations at first, and if the anime failed to hold his very difficult attention in three episodes, he wouldn't even try with the rest.
So when in the first episode, all suspense and doubts left to the viewer entered Ackerman's head, he would finish the other 11 without realizing it.
As a rational person, he would love things that make him think and reflect on the proposed theme. In the case: Life and death.
For some reason, I imagine him as someone who would like to study and read philosophy as a hobby and that he would love Nietzsche? So, you could expect deep conversations after each episode.
But without any arrogance, humanity's strongest soldier might not be the most talkative man in humanity, but surely when he opened his mouth to it, it wouldn’t be to show himself off with something that he knows and you don’t. On the contrary, he would be more than happy to explain if you asked and added your opinion.
He wouldn't cry, but he would be touched by the way the emotions were shown and created in the characters.
He would probably see the scene where Decim cries more than once for being impressed with how the pain of a character who is supposedly not flesh and blood is expressed so well.
And after the anime is over, you would always see him listening to the music of the ice skating scene around the house while doing something.
When you were finished watching everything, you would talk again about the anime. You lying on his chest and he touching his hair, smelling him.
"Do you believe in reincarnation, Levi?"
“If so, I wouldn't go back to this shit a second time. No matter what they offered me ”
"Levi!"
"Unless it was to have you again"
“What a cliché” He would roll his eyes after hearing your response “But I like clichés”
Again, he wouldn't cry, but he would be thinking about how ephemeral things can be, including being alive. Then you can expect a more touchy Levi for a few days.
Tumblr media
Jean - Banana Fish 
N / A: Another one to cry and get hurt. Banana Fish is way more than just a story about one character just is hard to define. So in case, you didn’t watch it, here’s the trailer. (18+)
warnings: pedophilia, rape, violence, drugs, your heart being destroyed
You know that guy who says that no yaoi is good, it's just a way to feed a bunch of fujoshi and stuff like that? Jean. It's him. I just know it. So when you suggested Banana Fish and said it was a BL / yaoi, he would probably laugh and ignore the idea.
But after insisting a little and showing him the many compliments that both the anime and the manga received, he would accept.
At first, he wouldn't pay much attention. He really thought it would be just another bad anime. But by the end of the first episode, he would be too involved in the story to stop.
I think he would love crime novels for the same reason that Levi: To think. Try to find out how things are going to end and pick up any clues that the author has left about the ending. So the plot would hold him so much because he would make a ton of theories about the end.
He will ship Ash and Eiji with all his soul. I mean, how can he not ship? To see an anime in which the physical touch between the couple doesn't really happen and still builds a well-developed and healthy relationship would be a new experience for him.
Jean is somewhat similar to Eren in this respect. So you can expect to see him huffing in anger, cursing one of the characters, throwing a pillow away, or using it to hide a tear or two that he would let go of you. The kind of person who gets emotionally involved with the things he watches.
He would cry an entire river after watching the last episode and deny it later.
“I was not crying. The cushion fabric made my eyes itch a lot ”
Show him again and he will cry the same amount and intensity
Tumblr media
Armin - Haikyuu
A / N: Considering all the texts on Tumblr for haikyuu characters, I’m pretty sure you know what anime it’s lol (10+)
Armin is an otaku with a license card and no one can change my mind. He would probably start watching it as a child. So, his first animes would be everyone's classics: Naruto, Dragon Ball Z, Bleach, etc.
So it would be normal that as the vast majority, he would continue to have a preference for shounen when he grew up. So it would be your idea to see Haikyuu.
He would have low expectations because he thought it would be just another anime with cute characters for everyone to be thirsty as an inverted harem. And also because the synopsis does not create a strong impression, especially for those who consume shounen daily.
"So we are just gonna see a little boy trying to catch a ball?"
“It's gonna be good! Everyone is talking about it now ”
"Does he have some superpower?"
"No"
"Something scary?"
"Armin, just give a chance!"
He would like it. Did I say he would like it? Because he would love it. The atmosphere created and well developed with such a simple plot would hold his attention well. (Is it possible to dislike Hinata in the first episode?)
It would be a great anime for him to watch because 1. It is different from what he usually sees. Unlike shounen, Haikyuu deals only with real and tangible scenarios. Of course, still with that touch of anime, but it is very easy to recognize yourself in the characters and learn from them and therefore reflect on yourself as well.
It would be great to make him think about his own insecurities and how most of them were inside his head.
He would be so immersed in the anime universe that he would have to pause the game scenes because he would be too nervous waiting for the ball to fall.
You will probably see him taking a deep breath in each drawing scene of the characters and see him truly cheering for the team as if it were a real national game.
More than that, you will see his eyes full of tears when Yamaguchi hit the serve in the match against Aoba johsai.
In fact, Yamaguchi would be his favorite character. No discussions.
"I said it would be good"
"Shut up"
"Make me"
Tumblr media
Mikasa - Heaven’s official blessing 
A / N: I'm going to leave the trailer here because I don't know how to define it very well. It's a novel, but the story doesn't focus ONLY on that. (14+)
Okay, you didn't suggest. She did not suggest. So how do you end up watching together? You catch her watching when you come home by surprise lol
Until then, you would know that she watched some anime, but nothing romantic. Never. In fact, that was her little secret.
Although common sense is that Mikasa would be cold even in a modern au (and I agree in parts). I think she would be the type of person who loves to see the sweetest and softest things to melt alone on the couch without anyone seeing. A moment for herself and a part of her that she would not show to anyone.
You would already know about her romantic side, but seeing her under the covers sighing while watching the Netflix special episode is a totally different story.
Please don’t mock her!!. She would be red enough by the time she was discovered.
When she was less shy, she would ask if you want to watch with her. She would say she saw no problem watching it with you again since doing it with you would be a different experience.
If you accept, you would spend the rest of the night in the room sharing a blanket and absorbing the soft atmosphere, the soundtrack, and the Chinese culture so present in history.
She would not speak a lot because she was paying attention, but she would hug you all the time. In the romantic scenes, she would tighten her arms around you a little and sometimes left a kiss on your shoulder.
I think she could relate to Hua Cheng's way of loving. He is always there to protect, care for and see his lover even if sometimes Xie Lian doesn't even know.
And that is what she wants to show you, that more than a girlfriend, she is also someone you can count on.
Days later, you will see her reading the rest of the work around the house because she couldn't stand to wait for a second season.
And later, SURELY melting and vibrating while watching Mo Dao Zu Shi.

Hi Fourangers,
First of all, I love your blog so much. It's like going through a history back when Naruto Manga chapters were released weekly and your reviews were so Golden, Hilarious and spot-on. Am a new fan though (especially an SNS fan), I just got into this fandom only this year. I don't know if you'll answer my ask, but I just wanted to try and ask you few questions and I pray that you might answer me....
1. Since you've written in a post that you were active in the eastern part of the fandom, How was chapter 698 received in Japan? Because this is the chapter I inherently realized they both love each other. Yeah, I was too late but somehow whenever they interact with each other in previous chapters I always find them to be 'Weird' for just to be friends. Chapter 698 is just blatantly obvious that they love each other. Considering Homophobia and Shounen genre, I have no idea how it was perceived over there back then in 2014.
2. Which scene made you to ship SNS?
3. As an SNS'er how do you feel about the ending, where everyone was married off when they were just 19 just to make some shitty sequel??? As a new fan, I felt betrayed and It would've been perfect if they had stopped at chapter 699, leaving an open ending.
4. How do you face with the accusation about Naruto and Sasuke as brothers and we, SNS'ers are Incest shippers??? I don't care about that Indra and Ashura thing. But Naruto himself told he considers Sasuke as his Brother couple of times. And in Chapter 699, Sasuke acknowledged, 'He finally understood what it meant'.... It's the only thing that confuses me and I don't even have an answer!!! Plus, Kishi himself gave an interview that he based Sasuke on his Brother... I really wonder how he gave such an interview when he literally made them wear necklaces with each other's faces.
5. How was Naruto and Sasuke's sexuality perceived in the fandom back then??? Man!! Kishimoto just made lot of comic reliefs on their sexuality by making Sasuke on Sai jutsu, Naruto not interested in Icha Icha but making Reverse Harem no Jutsu, Naruto was angry when Konohamaru made Boy on Boy jutsu whereas he had no problem with him doing it. LOL. And all those homoerotic posters. What do you think about their sexuality, personally??
6. Why did Kishi had to develop their bond as Soulmates with some unintentional or intentional romantic undertones, if he was eventually going to pair them up with girls??? He easily could've gave many such romantic tropes to other girls and keep the bond between N and S as purely friendship or brothers. It still would've made sense.
7. Final one, Was Naruto really Nosebleeding when Kurama made a joke about Sasuke's kiss in Chapter 572???? We had a lot of heated discussion with other shippers where they claim that it was just a splotch of snot.
Sorry for the lengthy ask....... I am so eager to know your answers and I don't want to spam your ask box by sending multiple asks.
Thanks 😊😊😊
Hey yo! Welcome new SNS fan! I'm so glad that you joined us and I'll try to answer as best as I can. I'm not very active here on tumblr (except browsing lol) but your ask was such a delight to read.
1. I honestly don't remember. I think I didn't follow the japanese boards until the eventual 699-700 disaster. People were craving for reactions and I was curious about it too lol. And well...it's been years, I doubt I'll be able to find the reactions from that time. Imo, most readers don't care much about pairings, they just wanted to read about power-ups and abilities and the basic Naruto Vs Sasuke. Though there are some backhanded jokes about how gay Naruto is for Sasuke.
2. Hah. It's going to be very anti-climatic but it was when Naruto and Sakura were eating in Ichiraku Ramen. Naruto just used Rasenshuriken against Kakuzu and he busted his arm. Sakura was healing his arm and her attention was focused on Naruto. I used to be a NaruSaku shipper so I thought "Oh hey! This is the moment that Naruto would have a candid romantic moment!" But nope. He talked about Sasuke. And I was already getting suspicious about Sasuke's feelings towards Naruto ya know? And the whole "SASUKE IS MIINEEEEEE" in Orochimaru's lair. It was that moment I thought "you only have Sasuke in your head don't you, Naruto?" and started shipping SNS.
3. Hooo boy was I surprised when it was suddenly revealed that they had the basic heteronormative, boring marriage with bunch of clones of themselves. Everyone thought that it was almost like a bad fanfiction come true and some thought that it was fake. It was a pandemonium lolololol. I also thought that it was too lame to be true and lo and behold, when it came true I was floored. And then whenever Kishimoto threw new material, I got insanely pissed off because S*arada and B*ruto becoming pairing material is ok because they are a girl and a boy, and then they paralleled with Naruto and Sasuke which are only FRIENDS because they are both men. ARGH. Open ending was what Kishimoto planned from the very beginning but wrote a sequel to earn more money.
In that aspect, I made peace with it because of the whole anime/manga industry. I learned that, as a mangaka, you don't earn a lot of money with selling books, but rather with merchandise and profiting with sales right. And that guy have a family to raise, have two kids (which is hilarious about how B*ruto movie is his self-insert story), he needs a steady income. Also, I read reports about how anime studios are so poor and animators don't receive a decent income not to mention they are overstaffed and tired, and B*ruto is a good money cow for them to earn money so they can invest later on other anime they have more passion about it. So even though I hate this story with a strength of thousands suns, they are putting meal on people's tables and making them pay rents. I'm ok.
4. Lemme roll my eyes because in the Last movie they said that Hinata is related to Kaguya and so is the Uzumaki and Uchiha clan so they are all related woo hoo. But in the aspect of brothers because reincarnations bla bla bla, didn't Naruto himself said that he's no longer that brother, he's himself? Hmm...I gotta re-read it. One day. Maybe. lol. But I'm sure that he said "Sasuke is not my brother but I'm sure we'll understand well as friends" so there. Honestly, there are a lot of interviews out there and a lot of them are fake, so I'd always take the interviews with a grain of salt lololol. I do know from artbooks that Kishimoto wanted to create Sasuke as a rival-esque character and that was it. As he was developing Sasuke and Naruto's relationship, since he liked the whole yin-yang concept, whenever he wrote Naruto's story, Sasuke's was developed at the same time as his shadow.
5. I can tell from Naruto Forums (I used to participate back in that day) MOST of the non-shippers thought it was gay as hell, but you know...it was a relic of that time. While they thought it was gay, they didn't put too much thought about you know? Because it was shounen, and we knew that it was a joke that it couldn't be taken seriously. Of course, in the SNS fandom, we did make more analysis and there were a lot of instance when Naruto and Sasuke's sexuality was questioned. Some other non-shippers also thought that Naruto was totes gay for Sasuke (including a IRL friend).
Imo, Naruto is definitely bisexual in my view. Sasuke I think he's asexual or gay. He's attracted to Naruto, but mostly because of his connection to him, not because of his physical attributes, so yeah...asexual. Or Pansexual. Sasuke is more complicated lmao. Imo, Naruto could be pansexual too, come to think about it. Yeah, I guess both being pansexual can be valid.
6. He developed Naruto and Sasuke being soulmates from the very beginning, that was proven in his comments in artbooks and in the manga. He probably created with the intention of making it purely platonic, going beyond physical ties. Then he shot himself on the foot by drawing Naruto thinking about Sasuke on bed, talking about how Sasuke is cool, meanwhile Sasuke waxing poetic about how Naruto saved him. What gives? Lol. Yeah, I think he got too enamored writing their relationship that he didn't have time to write romantic ones. What I noticed that Sakura's popularity never was really high, so I could see some editors putting their fingers all over it and making her less relevant. Also, Kishimoto didn't know how to handle her, so when she got her time to shine was the whole fake confession disaster. Coupled with Kishimoto sexism and, in his words (Kurenai's flashback), women are useful to spout more babies, women was never really relevant in his story, unfortunately. Even Kaguya who was technically the big bad boss, was never really fleshed out in comparison to Madara. So the null het romantic moments it's not because he wanted to elevate SNS moments, it's more about how he's incompetent about it. It's either Hinata slowly elevating to a relevant status because forced interaction (Pain's sacrifice and Neji's death) or Sakura being obligated to be pining over Sasuke because she's a girl. It's even more painful to see that, if we ignore B*ruto, both girls are shown to be just talking with their kids and dusting shelves, basically being housewives, even though thorough the story (especially Sakura) it was implied that both of them have much more potential than being their husband accessories.
7. It was a splotch of snot. I can confirm myself lol. Whenever the chapter is out and fans would scan it to scanlate it, the editor usually would amp up contrast to max. So usually the lines get much more thicker than usual, when you read the official release which gets straight from the source, you can notice how the lines are more delicate.
Oh lol...but then we also have a lot of controversy about translating style. THAT one is a whole new can of worms to open.
Man I had fun answering your questions! Please send more :P

Madara and Hashirama for the ask meme 👀
Hashirama
What I love about them:
I really love Hashirama's stubborn optimism. I say "stubborn" here bc I think after a certain point of pain in misery in someone's everyday life, in some way it is a choice to remain optimistic despite that suffering. I don't characterize Hashirama as constantly happy and he can recognize the more realistic/pessimistic possibilities, he just refuses to accept them. I have it in my notes for OoT but haven't worked it in verbatim but Madara would call him "ruthlessly optimistic " and while that's tinged with Madara's own bias, I think it fits quite well.
What I hate about them:
Hashirama is stubbornly optimistic LOL. It's a double-edged sword and I think by the time he reached adulthood in a canon setting, Hashirama was so desperate for there to be peace he maintained his "everything will work out" attitude when he otherwise shouldn't have. There were the concerns with Madara and the Uchiha, his own brothers views that he certainly should have recognized could become a problem, and, after depending on when Tobirama took on students/how old they were, the possibility of biases being passed down and a Danzo like figure coming to power. However this was not Hashirama's responsibility alone to fix. I don't think, despite his love, Hashirama alone could have kept Madara in a village that hated him and a clan that distrusted him. Tobirama was an adult and let his own bias pass under a veil of "logic" and passed that, either intentionally or unintentionally down to his students. None of this is Hashirama's fault, but I think part of the canon story being a tragedy was he was blinded by a bright, hopeful future that he failed to see the early signs right in front of him.
Favorite Moment/Quote:
"To me, Madara was like a gift from the divine."
Even thinking about it makes me melt. It's so sweet and really emphasizes how much Madara means to him. 🥺
What I would like to see more focus on:
In fics? Hashirama's mental health and how his childhood affected him. Most of the long fics I've read focus on Madara. Which I understand, Madara has an arc into becoming a villain while Hashirama is just kinda "there" and it's easy for him to fulfill a support role to helping Madara in canon Au fics. A sort of unshakeable, always optimistic stone for Madara to depend on and stop his downward spiral into villainy. But, what makes hashimada so great for me is that Madara and Hashirama are equals. There will be times one falters and needs to depend on the other, and they're capable of giving each other that support. It'd also be great to see Hashirama struggle yet continue to choose optimism and compassion time after time because that feels more weighty and important than an eternally optimistic characterization that never wavers.
Headcanon wise...this isn't something I've found but desperately want to see (and will come up in all of my own aus) is the connection between the god tree and the god of shinobi who's famed ninjutsu is wood release and who's cells can be used for everything under the sun and are specifically needed to control the gedo statue / ten-tails. 👀 Look when I got back into Naruto and only vaguely knew about the war arc plot I thought Kishimoto was Doing Something with that. He was not. I am.
What I would like to see less focus on:
This is pretty much mentioned above but Hashirama as mainly a support for Madara rather than getting his own (non romantic) arcs in long canon Au fics. Headcanon wise, this is such a small nitpick, but Hashirama constantly being the one described as warm whereas Madara is cold. The big tree can *retain* heat, but he pales in comparison to Madara's ability to *generate* heat.
Favorite pairing with:
Hashimada (Hashirama x Madara)
No one should be surprised. I can wax prose about this for days but it's about ultimately finding someone else in a terrible world that *understands* you that you can grow with and support. I'm a sucker for friends to lovers and battle couples so guess what's right up my alley?
Favorite friendship:
Canon/BoaF- Hashirama & Mito
I know Madara & Mito is more popular, and I do love their dynamic but christ Hashirama needs friends outside Madara and Tobirama and I think they'd be good friends. Canon!Mito would provide a good level-headed perspective and wouldn't have the messy, complicated history like the three founders have together and it'd be good for Hashirama to get a break from that. BoaF!Mito and Hashirama are cousins their relationship eventually progresses to a sibling-like bond. They’re quite protective of each other and gossip endlessly together. Mito’s not as good as gardening, but they do it together and incorporate Uzumaki sealing techniques for certain houseplant decorations. Mito also might know about Madara 👀 
OoT-Hashirama & Sakura or Hashirama & Sai
His and Sakura's relationship is p similar to how I would characterize his and Mito's but with the added hilarity of Sakura being his "student" yet having 0 deference for him once they actually get to the "teaching" part (surprise: Hashirama's most uttered lines are "you do the thing, you know the thing, you know you just...do it. The thing. Madara "translates" a lot of their sessions.) Hashirama and Sai antagonize each other constantly and he *will* tease Sai into oblivion as any older brother would. Tobirama never reacted to Hashirama's mischief in ~fun~ ways and he felt bad about messing with Itama, who was even more emotional than he was and Kawarama, who hero-worshipped him. Sai is the perfect "if anyone messes with you I will personally make them regret being born yet *I* will tease you mercilessly to my hearts content" kind of little brother.
NOTP:
Hashitobi (Hashirama x Tobirama)
I don't do incest. At all. Even "non-incest" aus where they aren't technically related squick me out.
Favorite headcanon:
Hashirama can Speak to the trees.
Either humorously or seriously, I love this kinda, sorta, maybe not quite human power.
.
.
Madara
What I love about them:
Madara is kind and does his best to do what he thinks is right. The “kind” point is a lot of Hashirama talking/flashbacks and the “good” intention behind the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Making everyone a “winner” in the dreamworld, while absolutely insane and full of holes, is odd for a villain’s motivation. His role in the war arc is mostly focused on watching him wreck absolutely everyone he comes into contact with but I love Hashirama’s flashbacks and the glimpses of kid!Madara we get. Madara believed in his philosophy from a lifetime of pain that ended in him losing everything and being manipulated but he was still seeking a way to “help” the most people he could. He’s such a rich character that makes it easy to want to imagine other what-if scenarios where things turned out just a bit differently.
What I hate about them:
Madara takes all responsibility onto himself. This is more speculation because we don’t get Madara’s POV of his childhood or any significant scenes with the clan. However, I think this is one of the primary roots of most of Madara’s problems. If he blamed himself for mistakes that weren’t technically his, he could get into a cycle where he only blames himself and doesn’t seek help/support when he should have and purposefully reduces his support circle because he becomes paranoid that he won’t be able to protect them. A smaller issue that is both about Madara and not is he didn’t fall victim to the Talk no Jutsu, but was Madara aware of what was happening when he was possessed(?) by Kaguya? I forgot but if he wasn’t...I don’t think he’d agree Hashirama’s way was the right way at the end, merely his way was wrong. Because, in Madara’s point of view, the village may have been “better” (used very loosely) than becoming food/power for an alien goddess but it wasn’t good. It wasn’t the solution. Hashirama saying they were both wrong in some way saved the scene but Madara still jumped back to Hashirama’s dream being the right one too quickly imo. 
Favorite Moment/Quote:
“What are you going to do about the second [meteor] Onoki?” 
I’m sorry, that was just hilarious. We see this man slaughter an entire division and drop a meteor from the sky...two kages desperately try to stop it and it looks like they managed to succeed and he just...cool. What about the second? Really cemented Madara is Here and he is Dramatic. A close second fav is him flying across the battlefield to confront Hashirama only for the “I’ll deal with you later” line. 
What I would like to see more focus on:
I really love it when fics fill in the blanks of Madara’s childhood/his time with the Uchiha so that’s always a plus for me. The other thing is Hashirama calls Madara a “fundamentally kind man” and according to Tobirama the Uchiha feel love “too deeply” so I like fics that do focus on these aspects of Madara’s personality while staying true to his prickly demeanor. For headcanons I love, love, love exploring kekkei genkai/ninjutsu/genjutsu and how they individually affect people/clans. Digging deeper so that “fire affinity” means constantly running hot/pushing into possibly having fire resistance/unable to distinguish “too hot” / or even affinity acting like a secondary blood type so even if two people had AB blood if one had a water affinity and the other fire their blood would be incompatible. Also the mundane ways powers can be used (I have some Ideas for non-combat genjustu applications that the Uchiha use and those will come up in OoT 👀)
What I would like to see less focus on:
This again kinda ties into the Hashirama segments, but Madara completely depending on Hashirama and Hashirama alone for happiness. Especially in long AUs where he’s still in Konoha but has a poor relationship with the Uchiha. That’s fine starting out! But if the fic ends or doesn’t seriously work on improving that relationship it just sits a bit weird with me bc I don’t think Madara could be truly happy in that situation. (NSFW start) The other thing I see commonly is Madara is extremely passive/submissive in bed with Hashirama which is...weird to me? There’s also a reoccurring thing where he doesn’t have a lot of experience but Hashirama does and this leads to embarrassment and the aforementioned passive/submissiveness. I understand lack of experience can be embarrassing and I do believe Madara could be embarrassed, but instead of withdrawing into himself I think he’d push through it with something close to bravado and his usual single-minded intensity, for better or worse. I do think Madara usually bottoms in his and Hashirama’s relationship but both of them are as enthusiastic about sex as they are fighting and neither is especially submissive or dominant. (NSFW end)
Favorite pairing with:
Hashimada (Hashirama x Madara)
See absolutely everything else 😂 
Favorite friendship:
Canon/BoaF- Madara & Naori or Madara & Hikkaku 
I really like focusing on the Uchiha clan and exploring the dynamics within it. We get nothing about Madara’s early life outside of Hashirama so this is almost completely speculation. For the angst of canon, I like Madara being close to his clan only to lose them after his friendship with Hashirama is revealed bc he awakened his sharingan over Hashirama and that can’t be easily hidden. For BoaF, a large part of it is exploring the clans’ cultures before they made the village so this necessitates actually fleshing out said clans. Naori and Izuna are v similar in personality and both live to prank Madara and annoy him, but they hardly ever team up bc they start squabbling amongst themselves. Hikakku is stoic and calm in contrast to Naori’s mania and Madara’s intensity but he keeps track of every little favor and Madara dreads the day he’ll act on them because he knows it’ll result in something embarrassing for him. But like all BoaF!Uchiha, they’re fiercely protective of one another and you really don’t want to insult the wrong person. 
OoT - Madara & Naruto or Madara & Sai
I really Madara and Naruto’s dynamic, it’s very entertaining and fun for me to write and they’re both positive influences on each other. Madara gets more people to smother with his brand of affection and Naruto gets early recognition and training. Their weird non-training shenanigans (coupon collecting, gaming, etc.) also is p amusing. Madara and Sai have a similar relationship but I really like writing theirs from Sai’s POV bc he insists that he doesn’t feel close/like when Madara treats him like a little brother when he really does. 
NOTP:
Madatobi (Madara x Tobirama)
Logically, I know why this pairing is popular. Fanfic is saturated with the enemies to lovers trope yet emotionally I Do Not Understand it. Personally, I don’t enjoy toxic relationships, to read or write. And, to me, that’s what a close canon Madara and Tobirama pairing would be. Tobirama tried to convince Hashirama to kill him, he killed Izuna, even if it was in war, and I don’t think Madara could or would get over that. If Tobirama has similar attitudes about the Uchiha it makes it worse. AUs exist to rewrite this, of course, but I still don’t enjoy their romantic chemistry. At best, I like Tobirama and Madara as reluctant frenemies who insult each other and try to one-up each other. 
Favorite headcanon:
Madara is fire proof. 
I have a whole rant about this in OoT’s author notes 😂 Sasuke’s Amaterasu should have been a serious threat when it hit him. Instead the man just lets his clothes fall off then kicks their asses. He’s fire proof.

KaguMyu Act II ~ Rant Reaction
Okay, Act II is watched and I have to say, it was better than the first one.
That was probably because we had more songs (?). From which I forgot most already again. xD
Disclaimer: Leni is honest again, if you can't take that, don't read it.
Spoiler-filled notes with screenshots under the cut:
- First of all... it happened even less than in act I... if that is even possible. The "story" goes: Kakeru is ill, Himeko worried but still doing her thing in America, the Senshi fighting Kaguya - almost dying after doing nothing, Luna sings a song, the Senshi are free again and Super Sailor Moon appears, then everything is fine and as a Christmas present Luna gets turned into human does her flying thing with Kakeru and then realizes that Artemis is the better choice (here, in the manga and in the movie a BIG FAT WTF, LUNA! >:o)
Tumblr media
- What I have to admit is that Luna (both Lunas!) is a brilliant singer and saves a lot of screentime with her wonderful voice.
Tumblr media
- Act II has more Senshi in it but they literally do nothing but almost dying. No one can do anything besides Super Sailor Moon in the end. I don't even remember if I heard any attacks? They feel so useless and almost like bland background characters - we had this in the Dracul Arc but that was okay because the story focused on other characters but they were still there! The CHARACTERS were still there doing character typical stuff. And here...they exist..sometimes.
Tumblr media
- Gotta say that after Shuu and Sayaka, I LOVE those two but like the rest, they don't do anything. A part of this cast is so wasted. They could be so good but they do not have the chance to shine because they don't do anything. Isn't this musical called a Sailor Moon musical? Why aren't the Senshi doing anything? I don't get it!
Tumblr media
- Also may I add that Kaguya is the craziest bitch, I have ever seen? That is actually a good point because in the movie she was, as the Senshi here, just there. And here she has some kind of crazy personality? If we can call it personality, lol. But again...what are her motifs? Why does she want to freeze this planet? We'll never know.
Tumblr media
- And then puff paff suddenly the Senshi pull themselves together after Luna sang a song and then we got Super Sailor Moon and then there is no finale because it is already the end! Boom bam! Kaguya dead! And we only have like 30 minutes of act 2. Can a musical be so short? I guess they did not have enough boring scenes to fill the musical with...or the story was simply not giving us more.... who knows?
Tumblr media
- okay, I want to apologize that I called Rinko a plastic surgery face - I do not know if she actually did a surgery, she just looks like it. Her face just looks very unnatural to me and what makes it worse, she looks zero like Usagi. Even worse, she has zero Usagi attitudes. Worst, she does not feel like an Usagi at all. Having a chat with my bestie @vampiru-chan, who asked me how I'd rank her in a Sailor Moon ranking, I said, I'd put her in the same dustbin I already put Hotaru and Shiori. Because none of them was the littlest bit Usagi to me. This sounds hard? Life is hard, honey.
Tumblr media
- We had quite some actresses here, who have quite a lot of potential to become good Senshi or Sailor Moon Characters. I am talking particularly of Kisara Matsumura (Jupiter), Rei Kobyashi (Mars), Shinjyu Terada (Uranus), Ayana Kinoshita (Neptune), Yune Sakai (Luna), and Marisa (human-Luna).
I did not include Riku Sorahane (Tuxedo Mask) because I really have enough of the cool Takarazuka actress playing an out-of-character cool gangster Mamoru. She is a great actress and a great singer but I don't like what NewMyu does to Mamoru even though it's sexy (yes, I am looking at you, Tani ;3)
Tumblr media
Hellu, it's me, the typical NewMyu blue filter again
*OVERALL*
- *Story* It was boring. But not like NewMyu usually tends to be, with telling the storyline of the manga in the most boring way (talking of NewMyu 2013-2017). No, it was boring because nothing happened. I watched two hours of this musical and I don't remember a proper plot or memorable scenes. I remember that, as a child, I only liked the movie because the Outers had their full transformation with that amazing music in it. I never really cared for Luna's sudden love for Kakeru. But at least there was a storyline? Even if it was only for an hour, there was a story and something happened. But in here... nothing. I also did not like that the Senshi were merely side characters. We had no real character scenes and if there wasn't the birthday scene, the complete cast would have felt even more unnecessary.
- *Cast* Talking of an unnecessary cast. Human Luna (although a great singer) was so unnecessary to be extra cast! Cat-Luna could have played her very well too. Why? Because she is the same person, just with two legs. They did not cast a proper Mistress 9 in UNV but in here a double-Luna? Nelke, that makes no sense. Instead of a second Luna, you could have cast an Artemis. Or even better, bought better costumes.
- *Music I* We have quite some OSTs in the background which is a new thing for NewMyu, applause! But somehow it was too difficult to let the instrumental version of "You Are My Universe" play in the Curtain Call? Why was it the vocal version? Eh?
- *Music II* The songs are not memorable. I already forgot most of them again. I think I liked the ending song and the first part of the Outers song. The rest is not something I would listen to. "You are my Universe" is no image song that is catchy or iconic in some way.
- *All in all* Wasted time. This is a pity because some actresses would be really good if they had the chance. But they won't get another. As my friend @vampiru-chan said, if there will be a new mass-production Sailor Moon musical, they will cast everyone new again.
Tumblr media
*Did I like something?*
- We got an OST, even though it was a poor OST but at least we got one
- Moonlight Densetsu was a Service Number and no Crystal song
- Shinjyu and Ayana had a lot of potential
- That ending song was nice
TO MAKE THIS CLEAR! I don't want to say I hate everything about KaguMyu. I am just very disappointed with the outcome. It feels so much like a wasted chance to produce finally something good again. Or at least something better than since 2013.

I absolutely love the Narumitsu love is war au you talked a/! My question is why is Phoenix playing into the whole trying to force Edgeworth to confess? In the original manga, the two main characters are doing it in part bc they have a lot of pride lol, and while I do think Edgeworth would lean into that a little, I don’t see that specific motivation for Phoenix. He kind of seems like the kind of guy to either say his feelings outright or completely bury them lol. Thoughts?
Oooh this is a good question, Anon! I'll admit that I didn't think much about this until now, but I like how you think. I definitely agree that Phoenix is, generally, more open about his feelings than Miles, but your question got me thinking. I think I re-wrote this like five times because I kept having ideas. In the end, I kind of have two answers for you: The "Well this is meant to be lighthearted" one and the "Everyone hop on the angst train" one.
The short answer is that, while they're a lot less at each other's throats outside the courtroom, Phoenix and Miles are SUPER competitive when arguing legal cases - that's the main point of the games. So since the main point of Kaguya-Sama is the confession mindgames, it makes sense to just kinda mirror that over here - they just kinda egg each other on. It works well with the mutual pining troupe, which I both really like for narumitsu and find hilarious here because with the whole "evidence is everything" mindset, they're both just trying to literally prove that the other is pining.
The long answer is that, while I think not every case is mirrored over as an actual legal case (I'm going to make a separate post with just like, my exposition brainrot for this AU), I do think that Phoenix and Miles were still childhood friends and that DL-6 still happened in some form. So you could also take the route of Phoenix starting out with "I like Miles, but I don't want to burden him if he doesn't like me back. I'll see if he asks me first". It might start as some tactful pressing for information on Phoenix's part, when Miles starts dropping hints, then upping in ante until we get to those wild debates. This is a kinda funny transition, since Kaguya-Sama gets super ridiculous sometimes. It's Kaguya-Sama, after all; it's always gonna be a little bit silly. Maybe Phoenix does end up kind of playing along as he becomes more sure Miles actually likes him. Maybe it's that, but he still wants Miles to be the one to say it first, as that anxiety about being wrong is still there. Maybe there's a better idea I'm just not seeing.
This got kind of long-winded, but I hope that there's some semblance of the answer you were looking for in here!

I am eternally kind of puzzled about what Kishimoto was even thinking with the entire setup of Obito and Madara as two back to back villains. 
Because it’s just... such a weird structure? 
From everything I remember, they have the exact same goal and motivations. Like, literally one to one. The shinobi system is bad, there is no way to solve the endless conflicts, so the only solution is to just put everyone into a perfect genjutsu world of their own. That’s it. I haven’t the faintest idea why they even opposed each other except I guess they’re evil villains so they can never cooperate with someone and/or delusions of grandeur about being “savior of the world.” (WHY)
And this is kind of a problem? Because how do you make fighting two villains with the same goal and motivation interesting, one after another? It’s redundant. 
The thing is, fights aren’t just written to be just physical, most of the time. The protag doesn’t just win because they’re stronger, they win because they are morally superior in some way. Most of the time, they prove this by also overcoming the villain’s moral stance and making them give up emotionally. (Zabuza, Gaara, Nagato were all like this. The higher up the villain is on the overall scale, the more likely this is. A bunch of the Akatsuki wasn’t like this because they were basically fancier goons, and they also notably lacked any kind of real moral stance in the first place.) 
But once you defeat a particular villain argument (eg Infinite Tsukuyomi is the best way forward), then having to defeat the same argument AGAIN right afterwards would be just plain dull. 
So tbh I’m unsurprised that Madara went completely unaddressed and his only fight was purely physical with Gai. The series acts like Obito was defeated on the moral level, and once he was made to give up on Infinite Tsukuyomi, making Madara give up too would just be rehashing the same thing. 
(...In theory. In practice, Obito heel face turn was incredibly bizarre and didn’t actually address any of the points he brought up. But the show treats it like Naruto proved something, so it works out about the same.) 
Structurally, there were a few ways this could have been handled: 
1. Beat Obito only physically, but he doesn’t give up on his beliefs and willingly revives Madara. Then Madara is the one that needs to be morally defeated to overturn the concept of Infinite Tsukuyomi. 
I think this makes sense on the whole (since you can tie it in as “defeating Obito with pure force failed to address the underlying issue” paralleling why the shinobi system problems never go away), but trying to imagine Naruto emotionally bargaining with Madara is some next level comedy. He had to fall back on impromptu psychic bond and “HOKAGE DREAM” to get anywhere with Obito, and it was still a mess. Madara is basically completely unknowable and impenetrable to Naruto as he’s written. 
2. Have Obito be the one that gets worked over morally to overturn Tsukuyomi, and then present Madara as being so far gone and deranged that he basically rejects the moral superiority staring him right in the face, so there’s no need to reason with him. 
It would make some sense since Madara is old as dirt (aka more evil), but it would feel pretty hollow since Madara... doesn’t do much onscreen to prove that he’s worse off than Obito. This circles back to the issue of making Obito responsible for everything that went wrong in the entire series (except when Orochimaru did it instead lol). Obito went really far in his shit, so it would be really hard to actually ground the idea that Madara is worse. 
It would have also made more sense to have Obito break with Madara at this point instead of... earlier... for no reason except wanting to be the one who activates Infinite Tsukuyomi... for some reason... 
3. Just give them two different goals. For god’s sake. 
4. Honestly? Not make two different villains. 
There are so many little issues that come from this. Stuff like 14 year old Obito taking on flee on sight genius Minato, or Madara’s entire “plan” to die and then get resurrected but young for some reason. The number of things that could have gone wrong, leading to his Rinnegan being lost is staggering. (And then the eyeballs kind of just hang around? Preserved by magic? After Nagato dies??) 
Also, Obito just doesn’t have the... narrative “weight” to be the main series villain. With the way the later parts of the story go, it doesn’t add up to have the central villain be a nobody with no real connection to anyone important (aka Naruto and Sasuke). Madara at least works out from the perspective of being key to Konoha’s creation. But then he ends up being a dude who existed purely to create the Rinnegan and then screw over Obito (thus undermining Obito’s entire thing too). Just stick with Madara the whole way through but depower him in the middle, or something. 
...Obviously, none of this happened. Instead we got... “we proved Obito is wrong, so Madara is obviously wrong too, and he accordingly gets eaten by Kaguya, who has no heart, so we don’t need to talk to her at all.” 
Cool.

InuxKag Week 2020 Day 3--Confession
Breathe--rated Teen
Not my absolute favorite one-shot I’ve written but... it’ll do.
I’m writing another confession piece because I want the satisfaction of loving my own work lol Also on: HERE
@inukag-week @superpixie42 @lemonlushff @dangerouspompadour @keichanz @cstormsinukagblog @willowandfog @inuyashaloverforever @xfangheartx @clearwillow  @umacaking @procellaxletalis @smmahamazing @murdergiraffe @faulkner-blog @sapphirestarxx@swaggingtomboy @sarah-writes-stories
“It is the only way,” Kikyo said sadly.
“But… what about…” Kagome said as she looked back towards the barrier to see her friends standing outside of it.
“Kagome, he will be alright.”
Kagome exhaled shakily. The elder priestess had summoned her to talk but had decided that she was the only one who needed to hear the conversation. Kikyo’s body was gravely damaged from the miasma Naraku had impaled her with. Even after Kagome tried to heal her, it was to no avail—her body was still failing.
Kikyo had called to her for help—well—more like a request that she didn’t want anyone else to hear. That should have been a red flag in and of itself. Kagome reluctantly accepted the invitation, even to Inuyasha’s original discomfort. But she knew that if Kikyo wanted to speak with her, even with their friends outside the barrier, it must’ve been serious.
What she hadn’t expected was Kikyo’s request—to return to the other side of the well until she could vanquish Naraku and then she could return to purify the jewel. She said her soul was restless and refused to leave her body but her body was breaking down. Kikyo’s theory was if Kagome returned home, her soul would fight less and her body would be resilient, rather than succeed to its reincarnation.
Kagome’s main concern was Inuyasha. How would he cope with everything? She swore to stay by his side and had kept that promise. But would she break it so he could keep his? His promise to protect Kikyo? She sighed realizing it was more likely for her to break her promise rather than him…
Afterall, he loved Kikyo. Not her. Her love for the half-demon was one-sided. She knew he heard her at Kaguya’s castle. They had shared a kiss. It was chaste, short, but enough to draw him out of his full demon state. She also figured he heard her scream it to Naraku’s creepy infant and Kagura before she passed out… Neither time was ever addressed in conversation so she never brought it up. She would prefer to act like she didn’t put her heart out there on the line to just be stomped on. To be fair, he hadn’t stomped on it, if anything he just walked past it.
“Kagome,” Kikyo said as she stood uneasily. Kagome rushed over to her to steady her. The older miko granted her a soft smile of gratitude and then waved her off. “It is ultimately your decision; but we are short on time for you to decide.”
“Will you… Will you travel with them?”
“Yes.”
“You’ll protect them?”
“Of course.”
“Alright.”
“If the jewel is sacrificed in battle, you may want to say your goodbyes now if you get trapped beyond the well.”
Kagome nodded solemnly. As much as she wanted to be there, by her friends’ sides fighting Naraku, helping them exact their revenge and end his evil tirade, Kikyo deserved vengeance more. It honestly wasn’t her fight and her incarnation was the true guardian of the jewel—not her.
“I am sorry, Kagome. I wish there was a way for us to both coexist…”
“Mhm,” Kagome hummed, trying to hold back her tears. Kikyo and her had made amends as best as they could. The issues they hadn’t been able to resolve revolved  around one hanyou and a shared soul. But they were at least cooperative and civil. 
Kikyo lowered the barrier and their friends stepped forward in haste. 
“Kagome?” Sango called her friend. Kagome turned and smiled the best fake smile she could. Sango didn’t trust Kikyo and judging from her friend’s sadness, she had every right not to.
“I’m alright. Kikyo and I were just talking strategies.”
“Behind a barrier?” Miroku questioned.
“What was decided, Kikyo?” Inuyasha asked softly. Kagome had thought previously her heart couldn’t break any further—but she was dead wrong.
Kikyo turned to Kagome, as if prompting her to let everyone know the decision she had come to. It made Kagome feel even sicker. Even smaller. “We, uh, decided that…” she couldn’t finish. It was like her throat closed up and no sound could come out.
“Kagome will return to her era. My body and soul will recover without the strain her presence has upon it. Once it is repaired and I am strong enough to fight Naraku, she can return.”
All eyes fell upon Kagome, or she assumed they did. She honestly found her feet more appealing than anything else. Biting her lip, she took strides to get her backpack and then shot Sango a desperate look for escape to which she nodded sadly. Kagome mouthed a silent thank you to her. She hoped they would see each other again.
“Kirara,” Kagome said softly, beckoning the large demon cat forward. She hopped on her back and patted her to take off. She couldn’t bring herself to say goodbye. The tears in her eyes pooled heavily and her throat still hadn’t loosened. She was a coward. But she had to help Inuyasha keep his promise even if it made him hate her.
“Wait—” Miroku called.
“Don’t leave us, Kagome!” Shippo cried.
Sango crossed her arms and turned away from Kikyo and Inuyasha. She began walking away from the group to try and control her emotions. She wanted to scream at Inuyasha! She wanted to slap Kikyo! Gah!!! 
Miroku stepped to her side and placed his hand on her trembling shoulder, “We will make our way back to the village. Regroup with Kirara. We will leave you to your… devices.” Miroku nudged Sango to move forward as his anger and disappointment also rolled off of him. 
Shippo glared at Inuyasha and ran to catch up to Miroku and Sango as he cried. The fact he hadn’t even spoken to Inuyasha told him how hurt the little guy was.
“Kikyo…” Inuyasha said; he was unable to ask the question he knew he needed to.
“Inuyasha, it is the only way we will be able to defeat Naraku. Without the separation of time, my soul will continue to break down this body.”
“Kikyo, I--...” he didn’t know how to tell her. Would he be betraying her saying he wanted Kagome at his side? How could he even tell Kikyo that? It would be basically condemning her to death. Could he even admit that out loud? 
“Inuyasha, you seem upset by this decision. Is this… not what you wanted? Do you wish for my death?”
“N-no. That’s not--”
“Then why are you hesitant? Why are you questioning the plan? Naraku had deceived us into betraying one another. It is our destiny to destroy him.”
“Kikyo--”
“Inuyasha; why do you hesitate?” Kikyo kept her stoic face and voice even as she spoke to the half demon. 
“I--I can’t travel with you.” Kikyo tilted her head at his admission but remained silent to hear more.
“Kikyo, I thought, well, I thought you knew.”
“What do I know?” Kikyo prompted. Inuyasha looked into her eyes finally and saw she was pressing him. Testing him. Why?
“I--” he swallowed nervously. “I need Kagome.”
“Am I not enough for you, Inuyasha?”
Inuyasha looked uncomfortable and started to frown looking at the undead priestess. She was pushing him to admit things he hadn’t told anyone. Things that he only wanted to say to the one girl who mattered. To the girl who took off running rather than saying goodbye.
“Kikyo, our time was cut short. But--” Kikyo finally placed her hand over his mouth and smiled softly.
“Inuyasha, I know. Just tell me.”
“Why? What are you--”
“I need to know that you will be loyal and protect that girl with all your heart. That you won’t make the same mistake twice. That the trust you put in her is unbreakable.”
“It is, Kikyo. I’m sorry that we--well--”
“While I know our time was short, it was meant to be that way. I now know things I didn’t when I was alive. I must apologize to you for holding you back.”
“What do you mean?”
“I know your promise to me was holding you from being with my reincarnation… I am giving you an out, as long as you say it.”
“Say what?”
“Is that girl more important to you than I am?”
He looked at her and while he was petrified to admit his deep feelings he harbored for Kagome, Kikyo bluntly had spelled it out for him. She knew. She knew she was dying. She knew he needed Kagome. She knew he loved Kagome. Kikyo wanted him to choose Kagome fully.
Kagome never asked him to pick. She wanted him to honor the promise he made to Kikyo and she vowed she would stay by his side. That’s all Kagome ever wanted was to be in his company even if it hurt her. He wanted to tell her for so long how he felt, but couldn’t--not with a promise to protect another woman. Not with a war going on with a malicious dark half demon who wanted nothing but to kill them all. 
“Y-yes,” he breathed. 
“Will you protect her with your life?”
“That’s not even a question, Kikyo. I already do,” he said more confidently.
“Hmm,” she hummed satisfied.
“Why are you doing this Kikyo?”
“My time is short, Inuyasha. Whether Kagome is here, or there, my body is going to give out. But before that happened I needed to know you were sure.”
“That I would pick her.”
“Above all else,” Kikyo smiled softly. “I would hurry if I were you. The longer you take, the harder it will be to convince her to stay, Inuyasha.” Kikyo turned away and began to walk back into the forest with her soul collectors.
Inuyasha smiled at the undead priestess. She freed him of his vow. He’d broken it too many times to count already racing after Kagome. Kikyo was dead and he knew that. He just wanted her to find peace. He had been in love with Kagome before he even realized it. Her friendship had grown so important to him that when she was gone, he felt like he couldn’t breathe. He wasn’t alive without the young girl from the future by his side.
He had made a declaration with himself when everything was all said and done, Kikyo still alive or not, he would finally confess his feelings to her. He would let Kagome decide where she wanted to be. 
Taking off in a fast sprint, he prayed he could beat Kirara to the well.
Kirara had landed by the well just as Kagome had finally pulled herself together out of her stupor. To be fair, she had left without saying goodbye. Just a shake of her head. How could she possibly say goodbye to any of them? Sango was like her sister. They didn’t even need words to be able to communicate. Miroku was like an elder brother. He was wise, offered good advice, and genuinely cared for her well being. Shippo… he was her adopted child. And she was abandoning him. Some mother she was.
And there was… Inuyasha. No words could ever describe her sorrow and pain having to leave him. He was her best friend. While he would never admit it, he needed her. All his actions showed her that. But he also needed her to leave so he could honor a vow he made to Kikyo. It was better to hate her than have him hate himself more… or hate her because it would mean the woman he loved would die. 
For her, the solution was simple. She would be that scapegoat for Inuyasha. Anything he needed, she would give him. She loved him. Ultimately, she knew it would end in heartbreak. But it was okay, because he would be happy. What more could she want aside from that? Eventually he’d forgive her, because he would have Kikyo. Eventually he’d forget her and move on...
She fell to her knees by the well and sobbed. She had to remind herself this was for him, not her. She was protecting him. That was all that ever mattered. Him. She was nearly sixteen. She would move on...
Kirara nudged her shoulder and Kagome let out a half-sob, half-laughed and turned to pet her friend, “I’m okay. Please, take care of everyone.”
Kirara roared as Kagome stood and sent her off. She wanted to be alone if only for a moment by the well. Where everything began.
As she turned back to look down the dark abyss, she felt arms wrap around her. She screamed briefly before she realized who had her. Shocked, she swung around to face Inuyasha.
“Wh-wh-WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!” she yelled.
“WHY ARE YOU YELLING?!” he snarled back.
“I’M LEAVING TO PROTECT YOU, STUPID!” she confessed as tears still rolled down her face uncontrollably.
“It’s MY job to protect YOU!” he growled, gripping her arms tightly.
“No! Your promise was to protect Kikyo!”
“I can’t do that without you!”
“You have to!”
“You swore you would stay by my side!”
“I can’t do that if it makes you break your own promise!!” she argued.
“I can’t keep that promise anymore Kagome…” he said sternly.
“Why?! I’m leaving! I’m making the choice easy on you! I never wanted you to choose so I chose for you,” she trembled and lowered her head but refused to let it rest on his chest. He was already breaking down her walls--she was supposed to have jumped in the well and have left by then. But no--he had to come and try and placate her. She couldn’t allow him to sacrifice his happiness to just appease her.
“And you chose wrong, idiot,” he chastised.
“How did I choose wrong?? I--” she was cut off from the press of his lips against hers. Her face had been forced away from the ground and she had seen the very angry and swirling crimson golden eyes of her best friend before he smashed his lips to hers.
This kiss was not what she expected. It was hard, crushing, furious, demanding and Gods did it make her want to come undone. But she knew she had to stay strong for him. He would regret this decision. Ultimately it would be her to blame for Kikyo’s death.
“Inu--” she said, trying to put distance between them.
“I need you, please,” he said brokenly. 
“What?” she gasped.
“I need you. Here. By my side. Please, I--I can’t lose you Kagome.”
“But what about Kikyo?? Inuyasha if I stay she’ll--”
“She’s going to pass on anyway, Kagome.”
The words should have made her feel better but if anything it just broke her heart further. Even if Inuyasha was picking her then, she was just a backup plan. A replacement for the real thing. She struggled to get out of his grasp but he refused to allow it.
“Let me go! I know I promised to be with you but I won’t be her! I’m me!”
“I know you aren’t Kikyo, Kagome! I’ve known that since we started traveling together! Do you think I’m stupid?!”
“Yes!”
He rolled his eyes realizing what poor timing this all was. It honestly wasn’t fair for him to assume she would have been jumping for joy or any of that. He knew why she was reacting the way she was and, damnit, it was his fucking fault.
“Kagome, what can I say or do to prove to you that you were my choice? I just confessed I needed you,” he begged.
“That doesn’t mean you…” she looked down and away from him again, still trying to pull from his grasp.
“I love you, Kagome. I told Kikyo I couldn’t be with her--that I needed to be with you. She knew her body was failing. She wanted our bond to be strong enough to face anything. She… she wanted me to confess to her. To know that I’d protect you with my life, that you were the one I wanted to be with. Kagome, please, I--I can’t lose you.”
“Why wait until now…” was all she could say. She halted in her struggles. She hated she was weak, but her heart had begun to beat heavily as he confessed his feelings for her.
“I wanted to wait until after Naraku was destroyed. Until my promise to protect Kikyo was fulfilled. But I can’t let you go. Don’t leave me,” he said as he sank down to his knees clutching her waist to his face. 
She lowered herself slowly, kneeling in his arms back into his embrace and took his face in her hands, “Do you mean that?”
“Idiot… of course I do,” he said blushing as he averted his eyes from her.
“Then… I can stay?”
“As long as you want,” he confessed.
“Forever?” she asked hopefully.
“I’ll never tell you to leave,” he added, crushing his lips back down to hers.

JAPAN TRIP 2k19 with Mod Elesa (1/?)
hey n’yall it’s mod elesa, lemme tell u bout my japan trip! u can find some of the photos of these events on my instagram @atel2er! i didn’t want to flood this post with pictures hehe ,,
GENERAL STUFF
went for school, study abroad trip to study visualization and simulation of “serious games” that businesses buy and use (but i dont feel like talking abt it since this is the FUN POST
may 10-26
the flight was 11 hours, p easy, i didn’t know anybody going into the trip because i didn’t go to any of the meetings HAHhaHEHA
whatever. everyone on the trip initially came off as if they had yellow fever and i was like ... i’m really not trying to interact with FETISHIZERS
turns out they were all really cool! only this one kid was a real weeaboo who was greasy and tall and a neckbeard who kept talking about being “culturally insensitive” and speaking japanese constantly to the teacher and the TA like ... ok patrick we get it you flex
i stayed in a hotel in shinjuku! everything is so small and i used the bidets for the first time and WOO chile that shit feels FUNKY on your asshole
i visited shinjuku major (kabukicho aka red light district, couple other places!), ikebukuro (THE MEGA POKEMON CENTER), mt fuji, fuji q highland, akihabara, hamamatsucho (area where tokyo tower is), HARAJUKU, and the emperor’s palace! i’m probably forgetting some places since we went to a lot of temples and shrines that were cool ...
the public transportation in japan is scarily on time.. like, by the second. they apologize if they’re one minute early and will wait until the scheduled time before they move omg
the subway stations have their own jingles! they kind of act as an alarm system because a lot of people sleep on the subway (which is why people generally don’t talk on it) and will recognize the jingle for their stop!
the crowded hours on the subway are noon and 6-8pm... like, its insane. it’s actually packed like sardines in there. 
EVERYONE THERE IS SO SHORT.... i was taller than a lot of the grown men there (i’m 5′4″ or 162 cm for reference) and most people were around 5 feet tall... the only people taller than me were some kids around my age and this gaggle of japanese schoolgirls who were like 5′7+ and i was like. sis you’re 13, why are you that tall
pokemon is EXTREMELY prevalent in japan wherever you go. there’s pikachu stickers on taxis, pikachu is on ads on the subway and at the AIRPORT, pokemon go is widely played by a lot of people and so many of the people in my group played it so i got conned into playing again. i leveled up 5 times within 3 days and honestly? i’m god
anime is very normal there... i know that sounds all “weeby” but a lot of normal shops had animated mascots and there were ads for anime all over the place. 
literally gacha machines everywhere i spent a lot of coins on gacha machines plz kill me
the homies in japan loooove crepes. they sold so many crepes. everywhere. just crepes. also spaghetti carbonara! and corndogs HAHAHA
the food there is so cheap but SOOO GOOD. sushi isn’t all that expensive at all?? like a set of 16 pieces is 1080Y... meanwhile that cost in america is like. $6000 HAHAHAHAH. 
very humid? at all times? also the RAIN is debilitating if u make one wrong step you will slip and die (like i did! i stepped on a tile and fucking fell into a puddle! i have bruises still!)
SHINJUKU (detective pikachu day, may 10)
i went to go see detective pikachu on its release day in shinjuku! before that, i went to a couple sega buildings--
the sega buildings are 4 story buildings FILLED with claw machines holding stuffed animals, figurines, candy, all kinds of stuff. when i went, there was a lot of detective pikachu-related stuff. i saw this detective pikachu hat in one of the machines and spent 1000Y (about $10) or 10 attempts at the claw machine ... i still can’t believe i got it ... nobody was there to see it besides me and i YELLED when it dropped 
i wore the hat that entire day around shinjuku because i honestly felt like god. people would point at me and go like “ah! meitantei pikachu!” and smile at me. i was a celebrity. i wore the hat into the movie theatre, i wore it through the entire movie, and when i was walking out, someone tapped on my shoulder and asked for my picture. she was all nervous about her english and was like “i love your hat. may i take a picture?” and i was like omG YES U CAN... sweet bab... so that’s the first photo of me that ended up on some random person’s phone
we waited around for the mass of people to exit the theatre and then left, and we ran into her again! she asked me more questions about the hat: “did you make it?” “no, i got it in a claw machine in the sega building.” she looked dumbfounded. “in shinjuku?” “yes.” “in the sega building? over there?” “yeees.” “in a claw machine?!” “yes!” “ah! i thought you made it! it’s so cute! i’m going to get one for myself.” “lol ok have fun”
i learned that its customary to stay until the very end of the credits before leaving a movie out of respect for the people who made it! meanwhile in america we walk out when the credits roll FHDSKFJS OOPIES
SHINJUKU (visit #2)
we went in the night time to go see the red light district aka kabuki-cho because thats where a lot of the bars are
i don’t drink so i didn’t join the people who went to the bars to get CRUNK, so i dragged two other guys with me and we walked around the red light district
I SAW SO MANY HOST CLUBS. so many maid cafes. so many bars. i saw a love hotel too... i was like... i wanna go inside... Blease... and my friends were like “you’re so weird KHEDJFSk” and im like “I WAS GOOGLING THESE IN CLASS TODAY, I DIDN’T THINK THEY WERE REAL”
my friend sean (he’s from taipei, cool guy, could read a lot of the kanji so we used him to navigate the subway HAHA) was walking with me that night and we saw this hole in the wall that had stairs going down to a peep show ... homegirl had her whole ass out on the sign... tiddies covered with caution tape ... i said MAAM?
one of the signs in kabuki-cho had a woman doing straight up ahegao with (what i’m pretty sure was) nut on her face. it was a small sign and i was the only one who saw it. i lost my shit. it was the funniest thing ever
kabuki-cho is really really dirty... like people straight up litter all the time bc there’s no trashcans around? so people throw their shit on the ground? and everyone steps on it... very seedy area, very gross, but i was absolutely enthralled with the nightlife and the blatant sexual vibes half the places had!
some dude stopped me and started speaking english saying “do you like karaoke? you should come drink with me for two hours, it’s a great price if you drink a lot” and i was like “no... i have to go home” and he’s like “come onnnn it’s a good price” and i was like. i’m not very assertive with men so i started panicking and my friend sean (A GOD AMONG MEN) started speaking chinese to him and he backed off ... i love you sean you’re so fucking COOL
IKEBUKURO (pokemon mega center)
so there’s this huge mall. i forgot the name, but it’s got like a lot of floors and they’re MASSIVE
on the 2rd floor is the MEGA POKEMON CENTER!!! i was so HYPED to go in there!!! it was teeming with people but there was just... so much stuff. all kinds of merch. they had plushies of the original 151, a shitton of really cool tshirts, a whole block for detective pikachu-themed merch (pins, socks, canvas bags, shirts, patches, hats, etc), and sooo much more. there’s a giant charizard statue when you walk in, as well as a statue of a pokestop HAHA. i was so excited and i wanted to buy so many things when i was in there bc they had stuff for all the legendaries (LATIOS AND LATIAS STUFF WERE THERE I WAS SO HAPPY)!!! literally anything you can think of, they had in some kind of pokemon print. including underwear. yeah i said it. here’s a really good article that showcases some of the stuff they sold there!
for reference, 100 yen is about 1 usd. a lot of things there were 480 yen ($4.80) or 3000Y ($30) and it was just... beautiful. 
when i was there, yen didn’t feel like it had monetary value since it’s not the currency i’m used to, so i sPENT WAY TOO MUCH AHFJKDFD
they had themed cash registers with each of the starters... i cried :’)
i actually went there a second time but it was packed for a different reason. some idol group was performing on the ground floor and a shitton of girls were screaming fanchants while their jpop boys danced LOLLL. now i know how people see kpop stans ...
AKIHABARA (i went like 8 times)
this is what i like to call my birthplace
we went to the maid cafe. of course we fucking did. i got a dreamland passport and some cat ears. THE MAIDS ALL LOVED HATSUNE MIKU
SPEAKING OF HATSUNE MIKU AKA MY GODDESS, she was pretty popular in akihabara! she was also on some posters in the subway stations (across tokyo, not just in akihabara) and was apparently having some magical mirai concert???
there’s this giant tower called radio kaikan thats right outside the akihabara station that’s filled with all sorts of anime shit. i spent so much money in there. Good God. there was a furret plush for 5400Y and i was so STINGY that day i shouldve BOUGHT IT....  it was a longboi and i was like... sis!!!!
remember how i said my brain didn’t register that yen had monetary value? yeah i spent hundreds of dollars here no cap ...
i went to a kaguya-sama cafe as well on another day bc my friend joe (one of the figureine-collecting weebs) wanted to go and get a chika coaster
i went into a three floor sex shop and gave no fucks, the bottom floor was filled with bdsm shit and LEATHER SCHOOLGIRL OUTFITS and it was WILD. and these two old men were just casually browsing this shit like we weren’t both looking at whips and buttplugs in Public you know
i wasn’t fazed by a lot of the stuff there bc i read Funky fanfiction but the people i went in there with were major uncomfy ... i was like PRUDES HAJKFDAHDS i almost bought something don’t tell anybody
OKAY SO. there’s this place called super potato that has a floor dedicated to old games and consoles. they had so many gameboy advances and gamecubes and old consoles (famicom, dreamcast etc) for CHEAP. they had a gameboy color for 4900Y and a gamecube for 5600Y. a bitch almost cried. they had every old pokemon game under the sun (the original red, blue, yellow, gold and silver) and i ,,, they were 480Y. they were 480Y. that’s five fucking dollars. do you know how much collectors pay for that shit on ebay? HUNDREDS. i could’ve mass bought those and sold them and made so much cash but I DIDN’T.
that store had an original unopened copy of super smash bros melee and pokemon colosseum and i was like... wait if i cop a gamecube i could play pokemon collosseum like a true g... ((i didn’t cop))
but anyways there were a lot of games that didn’t make it to america (including mother 3! which my friend connor bought! as well as the console to play it!) and just... so many old things i grew up with ... 
whenever i walked out of the super potato we’d end up in an alley where all the girls who work at cafes were advertising their stuff
i always took the flyers from the girls bc they spoke their cute english to me and i was like... i’d die for you, yknow that?
ALL KINDS OF CAFES. regular maid cafe, pirate cafe, ninja cafe (you could do that thing where you karate chop a wooden block in half), sailor cafe (as in actual ship captains), shrine maiden cafe, vampire cafe, prince cafe (for the ladies ;3), catgirl cafe, bunny girl cafe... i took all of the goddamn flYERS THEY WERE ALL SO CUTE :( i wanted to go so bad...
FUJI Q HIGHLAND (also known as the time i flipped my shit and went on rollercoasters)
when i found out about fuji-q, i told my group that we HAD to go. i didn’t want to go to an onsen. i wanted to go to fuji-q. i had to. i love rollercoasters, it’s my passion, my driving fORCE IN LIFE
so fuji-q is home to 4 record-breaking rollercoasters! u got fast boi aka jojo reference do-dodonpa; EXTREME TALL BOI fujiyama; superior to x2 at six flags eejanaika; and the steepest rollercoaster in the world TAKABISHA ... i got to ride fujiyama, eejanaika, and takabisha! the scariest one was probably fujiyama despite it being very cut and dry up for... ever ... 79 meters ... oh god ... i lost my shit on the way down ladies let me TELL YOU
FUJIYAMA ALSO HAS A VIEW OF MT FUJI AND I WAS LIK E”YO GUYS ITS MT FUJI” and then we went down and i screamed
please watch the pov videos for these rides they’re very good but they don’t convey the absurd amount of excitement i had going on these rides
anyways the fuji-q park was having a sword art online collaboration when i visited, so they played SAO music and had cardboard cutouts for them across the park... kirito’s ride was fujiyama (aka the king of them all). i forgot the other ones but those alicization kiddos were there but ion care about ALICE OR EUGEO
the first ride i went on was eejanaika which is a 4d rollercoaster, pretty epic, total Baby Ride though
i went on as a single rider so i ended up getting put in this group with these college kids! the guy i was sitting next to spoke to me in english and asked basic questions: “where are you from?”, “is this [ride] easy for you?”, “how old are you?”, basic stuff. he asked why i was in japan and i told him i was studying at waseda university, and he immediately perked up and went “I GO TO WASEDA!!! WASEDA YEAH!!!” and fist bumped me ... his friends were giggling and kept asking him to ask me questions and it was just. so wholesome.
when we were abt to get on the ride he looks at me and says “my name is soichiro. call me so-chan ok??” and i was like... “so-chan” and his friENDS ALL STARTED GIGGLIGN AND I WAS LIKE U///W///U
while we were going up on the ride, he kept yelling “JESUS FUCK YOU JESUS CHRIST” and my favorite: “JESUS CHRIST WHAT THE FUCK YOU” because apparently fuck cannot be standalone! “what the fuck you” is my new fave insult (i miss you so-chan)
afterwards he kept coughing and was like. dead. his soul left his body. so i asked in him japanese like,,, “daijobu ka?” and he was like “nai.” and i just laughed at him bc BA B Y SO-CHAN CANT HANDLE SOME SPINS 
i bought a corndog at fuji-q at this place called arirang hotdog which is a korean style hotdog place??? BRUH that shit is so good but i shat myself for a good minute afterwards ... damn i want those corndogs
sadly i did not get to go on do-dodonpa because nobody wanted to ride with me and i didn’t want to go by myself >:/// still mad abt that bc that was the FAST BOI ...
also. takabisha. the guiness world record with the 121 degree drop. not even scary. BUT they do hang you there for like 3 seconds before making you go down and i was like “YALL FUCKIN WITH ME” really loud when they hung us there ... PLS watch a pov video you’ll see what i mean ...
HARAJUKU (i totally forgot abt this place OH lord)
i bought ... clothes here ...
they have all those clothes with the random english words on them so OF COURSE i had to buy one AS WELL AS a hat to match!
i also bought one of those ear hats where u press the paws and the ears move ... bts inspired that one
so many people in harajuku absolutely DECKED OUT in fashion. what a bunch of legends.
apparently wearing shirts that say “babygirl” are popular here i have no clue why ,,,, also im pretty sure i remember seeing a shirt that said “call me daddy” and i’m like. Ok Japan
half the shit in english made ZERO SENSE or was SPELLED WRONG and that was common all across japan, not just on harajuku fashion pieces LMAOOOO
deadass i went to a couple businesses (fuji xerox, nissan factory, etc) and they had spelling errors all over the place... nissan really had a placard that said “Prease do not touch” AND I CACKLED hfDSKLJF ilove u nissan

Big Hero 7: The Series
Tumblr media
Big Hero 7 S2
Mini-Maximum Trouble!
* The morning is bright and warm, the birds were singing and the cherry blossoms dancing through the breeze. At the Lucky Cat Café everyone had been relaxing and doing their own thing. Cora's phone beeps up with a text message from Kage.*
Cora: *Chuckles* Uncle Kage sure is a lot happier, look at this.
*Cora sends what her uncle had sent to her via group text. It was a picture of Kage with Chara at home with their Baymax along with Kaguya.*
Honey Lemon: I'm really happy for him. He's changed so much for the better.
Fred: His story is a proper redemption arc in this universe.
Hiro: *Rolls his eyes before turning his head to Cora* So Cora, do you have an official day for your lessons with your grandmother?
Cora: We're thinking the weekend. She wants all of us to be there... I may have to create you guys underwater suits as well.
Gogo: *Mutters softly* Still can't believe your grandmother's a mermaid.
Cora: Don't I know it... I wonder what Mom's mermaid tail would've looked like...?
Fred: Do you think you'll ever get your own mermaid tail?
Cora: I really don't know and as far as my human half plus the tech embedded inside me is concerned, chances are pretty slim... But lets not focus on that now.. I'm happy with how things are going.
*The comforting silence returns when the resume their own thing. Wasabi, being busy with his phone, uses his other hand to grab his mug only to accidentally knock over the salt shaker... much to his chagrin. He quickly sets the salt up and uses the fallen salt to throw over his shoulder, to which he relaxes... which just so happens to catch Fred's attention.*
Fred: uh... What was that?
Wasabi: *Shifty eyes* What? What thing? I don't know what you're talking about.
*Wasabi gets up to get more coffee from Aunt Cass... only to be confronted by Fred once more.*
Fred: The thing with the salt? Why did you do it? Why?
Wasabi: Ok... spilling salt brings bad luck and throwing a pinch over your shoulder reverses the bad luck.
Fred: I don't know Wasabi, sounds like some weird superstition to me-
Wasabi: Sh! I'm a scientist! I'm supposed to believe in facts and data not bad luck and superstitions.
*Fred then proceeds to bring over a salt shaker and spill it, making Wasabi panic a little.*
Wasabi: *Picking up spilt salt* Ah! What are you doing?
Fred: Helping you by proving bad luck isn't real. Wait for it... Wait for it...
*Wasabi silently squirms as Fred looks around.*
Fred: See? Nothing bad happened?
Wasabi: Are you sure you don't want to throw a little over your shoulder?
*That is when Hiro's phone rings up to show a pic of Megan to which he answers.*
Hiro; Hey Megan.
Megan: Hi Hiro! How's Cora?
Hiro: She's alright.
Megan: With all the crazy stuff that happened at Sycorax that targeted her and her family, I'm glad. it must've been insanely scary.
Cora: *Joining in the face call* Yeah it was, but like he said, we're cool now and Big Hero 7 got them shut down.
Megan: Yeah. There's something else too. I can't hang out with you two today, I have to stay behind to work on the Westerburg's school news feed.
Hiro: No problem.
Cora: Whats the story about?
Megan: Its huge! I'm gonna find out the secret identities of Big Hero 7!
*That got everyone at the table off guard. Honey Lemon starts coughing while Wasabi drops his phone and spills the salt again.*
Hiro: Oh...
Cora: That's something...
Megan: Exciting! I can't wait to get to work! See you two around!
Gogo: Should we be concerned about this?
Fred: No way! Super hero identity? Nobody can crack that code! Except Kage who was Obake…..Momakase… Kaguya… Cora's Giant dad... Chara...Orso Knox...Krei… well I guess Gradnville knew the whole time...
Cora: We've been a little sloppy huh?
Hiro: Fred, Cora, it'll be fine.
Wasabi: I hope you're right!
*Honey Lemon knocks over the salt to which wasabi throws the spilt salt over his shoulder once more... to which happened to hit Mochi's face and cause him to attack Wasabi's face and land on the table, with Wasabi on the floor.*
Mochi: Meow
*The next day Wasabi and Fred are at SFIT in the robotics lab where the former is currently blindfolded and strapped to a chair.*
Fred: OK, you don't see anything right?
Wasabi: Listen Fred, I don't see how blindfolding me is gonna help me get over my superstitions.
*Minimax jumps up to Wasabi's shoulders, ready for Fred's plan to unfold. Once Fred snaps his fingers Minimax removes the blindfold off Wasabi's face.*
Minimax: You are once again free to enjoy your visual abilities!
*That is when Wasabi sees in front of him Fred standing next to a ladder.*
Wasabi: why is there a ladder in- Oh no...
Fred: Oh yes! I have created a superstition obstacle course which I will go through after which I will not have any bad luck! Thus proving there's no such thing as bad luck and you shall be cured Wasabi!
Wasabi: …*To the author writing this scene* He doesn't mean it! He doesn't mean it! He doesn't understand! Please show us mercy! (A.N: Lol no)
*Wasabi's panic rises higher than ever as he is forced to watch Fred dance through the ladder.*
Wasabi: He's under a ladder!
Fred: Look! *Shows Wasabi a broken mirror* A broken mirror!
*Wasabi squirms as Minimax forces Wasabi to look at his reflection.*
Fred: Is the forecast calling for...*Pulls out umbrella* Rain?
Wasabi: No! Don't do it! Don't!
*Fred opens the umbrella anyways.*
Wasabi; Not inside man!
Fred: OK Ok I'll put it away! right in here!
*He closes the umbrella and heads over to put it away when he opens the door to reveal a black cat wearing mini hover boots flying to the room. This causes Wasabi to push himself backwards as he tries to get away from the black cat only for Fred to hold him still.*
Wasabi; Ah! Not a black cat! Its crossing my path! repeatedly! There its goes again!
*Wasabi's panic finally tilts him back to Fred, freeing him from the bonds to his chair. When the cat comes to Wasabi the man runs away only to hit a cabinet, causing it to fall to the ground with the man avoiding it just in time. The box then knocks to a laser where it shoots into one of the pipes nearby.*
Wasabi: You ruined both our lives.
Fred: Maybe if I- *Water pressure pushing him back* Uh nope! That'snotworkingMinimaxhelp!
Minimax: Stand aside! Water is a precious resource!
*Minimax hops over and plugs it up with his own body.*
Fred: Yeah!
Minimax: Concelation-Ablughgubabugha
*The water had seeped into Minimax's body, finally throwing him away and hitting him to a wall. Water seeps out his body as sparks fly out before it fizzles.*
Fred: Oh that's probably not good!
Wasabi: Mini-Maximum Bad luck!
*Rather than going to Hiro and Cora and admitting what he had done, alongside the knowledge they would be busy hanging out with Megan, he opts to take Minimax home and bury him up to his neck in a glass of rice for a rice bath. Finally after he deems it long enough, Fred takes out Minimax from the rice and checks him over.*
Fred: Please work! Please Work! Please work! Please!
*Fred taps on the top of Minimax's head where after his eyes adjust he is finally online.*
Fred: Hey there buddy~ Its me! Fred.
Minimax: Fred...
Fred: Are you OK?...
Minimax: I am... Minimax!
*Minimax falls off the counter and starts running in circles sideways.*
Minimax: Mini Max-Max Max-Max-Max-
Fred: OK, gonna be honest. You need a little more rice time.
*He places minimax back to his rice jar bath. As of while Megan sets up a bulletin board with all the facts, newspaper clips, photos, and familiar locations of Big Hero 7... and all with red string. Its a rambunctious project, she has to admit, but she knew that could crack the code and show San Fransokyo the identities of Big Hero 7 so they may properly thank them for their service. That's when a knock is heard from her door.*
Megan: Come in.
*That's when the door opens to reveal her dad, Chief Cruz.*
Chief Cruz: You have visitors... familiar visitors..
*That's when Hiro and Cora show themselves.*
Megan: Hiro! Cora! I wanna show you two what I been working on!
Hiro: This is... impressive...
Cora: Definitely...
Megan: I haven't had any break throughs yet-
Chief Cruz: *Pats Megan's head* I'm confident you will... *To all three teens* Hey you kids want some cookies?
Megan: No we-
Chief Cruz: *Pushes Hiro and Cora away* I'm bringing cookies anyway!
*The chief goes out the door.. to then peek at the three before officially leaving them be to get said cookies.*
Cora:... So how are you with all this?
Megan: I've started with a timeline where it really began. *Points to picture of Kreitech* This is where Big Hero 7 first appeared when they fought off Robert Callaghan...there's got to be some reason they showed up when they did.
Hiro: Yeaaah… Or it could've just been random.
Megan: Why are you acting weird?
Hiro: *Lying through his teeth* Weird? I'm not acting... weird..? But did you think that maybe Big Hero 7's identities should stay secret?
Megan: No, why?
Hiro: I don't know... hehe.. maybe anonymity is what enables them to protect the city?
Megan: No, their super powers are what enabled them to protect the city.
Hiro: Yeah but...
Megan: Hiro, this is the biggest story ever! And as a journalist its my job to find out the truth! *to Cora* And besides, wouldn't you like to know the people who saved you and your family from Diane Amara?..
Cora:... Megan... think about this... what do you think will happen if you do reveal the identities of Big Hero 7? What good would come out of it?
Megan: I know the city would be grateful for it and know whom to thank for their service..
Cora: Yeah... and then there's the bad guys, their Rouge Gallery lets say, who may not have any grateful bone in their body... and instead have some extreme hatred for them...
Megan: *Catching on*… Learning their identities would make Big Hero 7 targets at their most vulnerable!...and everyone they know too...
Hiro: Exactly..
*Megan looks at Hiro and Cora then at the bulletin board containing the pictures of the heroes... and their villains... She heard from her father that Diane Amara and her twin Sister were taken to prison due to all their crimes, and that Cora was a witness. Diane almost got away with capturing her friend through marrying her father to get whatever she wanted... Putting the people that had rescued her in danger is the opposite of what she wanted to do.*
Megan:... You're right... If they wanted to be known who they are they would have told the city already.
Hiro: Yup!
Megan: And Dad does work with Big Hero 7... Alright. *Sighs* Guess I'll look for something else to write the news about.
*Hiro and Cora smile at this news before they quickly wipe it off.*
Cora: Sorry I burst your bubble Megan..
Megan: Nah, its cool... But what will I even write about?
Hiro: How about any of the big games at your school?...
Megan: *raises eyebrow*… The big game? What game?
Hiro: Isn't there usually a big game at your school?
Megan: Well, either way, I'll think of something. But I also want it to be unique and exciting!
*That is when a plate of cookies come up between their faces.*
Chief Cruz: I got the cookies!
Megan: Dad! Really?
*At the Frederickson Manor Fred is playing one of his most beloved arcade games without a care in the world. That is when his phone rings to which he answers while playing the game.*
Fred: Hiro! My main man! What's what?
*Hiro and Cora are at the streets heading back home.*
Hiro: Its about Megan.
Fred: Relax buddy, Its like I said before: No one can crack-
Hiro: She has a conspiracy wall.
Fred: *Growing worried* Is there red yarn?
Cora: A lot Fred... A whole lot...
*Fred is standing in shock, so much shock that he lost focus of his game and lost. That is when Cora pipes in.*
Cora: But not to worry! We actually convinced her to not go forward with discovering our identities.
Fred: Really? Whew... that sounded like a close call... I can't wait to tell Minimax!.. Though.. I would need to find somethings if...
Cora: If what?
Fred: Megan may not be the only one!... BRB guys!
*He hangs up the phone and rushes to Minimax's resting body in the jar of rice.*
Fred: Minimax! I'm going to the comic book store! I'm going to research Superheroes Unmasked! Specifically how bad is that! Granted Megan gave it up, but that's dodging the first bullet! We need to be prepared!... Wanna come?
Minimax: My enemy must be-be-be-be-be-
Fred: *Putting Minimax is jar of rice* OK back in the rice!
*When Fred goes out, the beeping of Minimax slow down as the wiring within him grows more unstable the more its left unattended. Fred steps out the door cheerily humming to himself when he felt some pebbles hit his head... that is when he looks up to see the top of the porch fall. He dodges in time, leaving him with a racing heart.*
Fred: Heathcliff! The porch broke!
*Fred then gets up to leave while Heathcliff steps outside and begins to tidy up the place. At the comic book store Fred is searching for any comics that have the plotline of their identities revealed and the major consequences that follow. But just when he found one he notices that the bookshelf is now starting to topple over and land above him, resulting in Fred being hit with comics sprawled around him.*
Fred: K, that was a little weird...
*Later on Fred is crossing the street while reading his newly purchased comic.*
Fred: Watch out danger face! DR Tobox is right behind you!
Stranger: Watch out!
*Fred turns around to see the lady pointing up to reveal a runaway trolley heading down fast, to which he narrowly dodges away. But that still left a runaway streetcar zooming through the city.*
Fred: *Getting up* Wasabi was right! Bad luck is real!
_______
*Quickly pulling out his phone he gets Skymax to deliver his chameleon suit and hide in an alley to suit up*
Fred: *Fully dressed* Enter Fredmillian!
*He runs down to catch the runaway streetcar, hopping up and using his tongue to grab hold of it. But the mere speed is too much as Fred is instead joining involuntarily to its path, being hit by various objects like stop signs and branches. That is when Wasabi and Honey Lemon join up to stop the runaway streetcar and rescue Fred. Honey Lemon uses her chem purse bazooka to take aim of the path to which allows the street car to fly up avoiding pedestrians and cars on its path... and Fred screaming his lungs out. Once landing down its goes down the road where Gogo zooms in to pull out an elderly woman out of harms way.*
Gogo: Your welcome.
*That is when Megan is up there, and she is holding her phone... she had been taking a walk looking through her phone for any juicy story to tackle on when she saw Velocity rescue the old woman. Gogo zooms out the way... Even though she decided to not pursue their identities... she did want to see how they work in action. With that Megan rides her bike to follow.*
Cora: Hiro and I are on our way!
*Finally the three show up when Wasabi comes up with this news.*
Wasabi: We got big problems ahead!
*And up ahead Fred is flung off the street car and up to the air.*
Honey Lemon: Fredzilla! *Looks farther ahead* Oh no!
*A school bus filled with children is unfortunately stuck in traffic and directly in the street car's path.*
Hiro: We're on it!
*Hiro launches his magnetic discs at the street car, creating magnetic pulls for Hiro to use. Hiro nearly falls off only for Cora and Baymax to hold on to him to stop the street car. With all their might, they stopped the street car and thus save the lives inside the school bus. Megan sees this and can't help but smile at the three heroes that saved the cheering crowd of children. Megan takes a deep breath before she goes over and catches their attention.*
Megan: Hey! If you have a moment could I talk to you guys for a second?
Hiro: Uh... sure?...I guess?
Cora: What would you like to talk about?
Megan: I just wanna say.. thank you for helping San Fransokyo... and for saving one of my friends from Diane Amara.
Cora: Oh... um... Y-Your welcome miss!
Hiro: We appreciate it. We gotta go now!
*And so the three leave along with the rest of Big Hero 7 where they meet up at SFIT. The teens explained to the team how they talked Megan out of searching up their real identities, though they do feel a little guilty to making her quit a subject she was clearly passionate about. That is when they all see Fred spread around salt in the lab.*
Cora: *Tilts head* Whats up Fred? Why are you spilling salt?
Honey Lemon: Freddie are you OK you look-
Gogo: Terrible.
Hiro: What happened to your arm?
Baymax: *Carrying buckets of salt behind Fred* Fred has an oblique radial fracture.
Fred: Yeah! Because of the bad luck!
*Fred inadvertently hits his injured arm against a hard surface to which he winces in pain.*
Gogo: Whats he talking about?
Fred: Minimax got soaked! I nearly got hit by a part of my house! Then a bookshelf, then almost a cable car!
*Fred throws salt over his shoulder which landed on Hiro, Cora, and Wasabi.*
Hiro: Wow.. Sorry Fred...
Cora: Wait... Mini-max had been water logged? And you didn't tell us?
Fred: I'm sorry Cora! But that was only yesterday! Today was worse!
*He removes his beanie to show his head injury.*
Fred: I need to break this bad luck streak.
Wasabi: Told ya.
Fred: You were right! I shouldn't have messed with the forces of bad luck; please, for the love of all that is good.. help me!
Wasabi:... alright.
Fred: Thank you so much!
Hiro: After you get this over could you bring Minimax over for us to check over? He's probably on the fritz.
Fred: I put him in a rice bath so his wires and such should be dry by now.
Cora: That still doesn't fic the circuits and coding inside him. Just remember to bring him over K?
Fred: Alright!
*And so Fred and Wasabi are at the streets of San Fransokyo in the search for a good luck charm.*
Fred: You sure this will work?
Wasabi: Positive! The only way to counteract the bad luck is with something that brings good luck! Like a heads up coin!
Fred: I see one!
*Fred eagerly jumps over when he spots the coin up the street.*
Wasabi: Is it heads up?
Fred: Yes!
Wasabi: Pick it up!
Fred: Free! I'm free! The curse is broken! *Kisses coin*
Wasabi: Don't kiss the dirty street money!
Fred: But you said it was lucky.
Wasabi: Lucky yes! Sanitary no.
Fred: All I know is I broke the curse~.
*He does a little celebratory dance where he celebrate by seeing Kentucky Kaiju: Return to the Midwest. Once he heads out to the theater his mind rings up with a thought.*
Fred: Oh right! *Calls Heathcliff* Hey Heathcliff! Could you go to the kitchen and check on Minimax? I'm gonna bring him over to Hiro and Cora to check him over.
Heathcliff: Master Frederickson, it appears that the rice jar you had placed master Minimax is empty.
Fred: Empty?! Oh man, he must've gotten out and ran off! I'll go look for him while-Ah!
*When he was walking faster he so happened to step on the skateboard and land down on the floor. His lucky penny turning tails. At the garage, Hiro and Cora are fixing up Baymax's armored fist.*
Cora: hmm, I wonder whats taking Fred.
Hiro: Don't worry, he'll come by with Minimax and check him over. You almost sound like your dad.
Cora: Yeah *chuckles*… And sides, this isn't as huge as Megan nearly going through her plan of identifying Big Hero 7... *Smiles softly* And its nice hearing her thank us...
Hiro: Yeah... *To Baymax* What do you think Baymax?
Baymax: Megan is right here.
*Baymax points to the garage door opening up... with Baymax's armored fist exposed.*
Cora: Oh no!
Hiro: We gotta hide it!
*The teens rush around looking for a good place to hide the rocket fist. After many mishaps they opt to cover it up with tarp and use it as a chair.*
Megan: Hey Hiro, Cora.
Hiro: Whats up?
Megan: Just wanna hang around. Still kicking around ideas for my scoop.
Cora: That's so?
Megan: Yeah. And I talked to Big Hero 7 too!
Hiro: That's pretty sweet!
Megan: Yeah. *To Baymax* Hey Baymax, wanna finish up that chess game?
Baymax: Of course.*Setting up Chess game* It is your move.
*Hiro sighs while Cora watches Baymax and Megan play chess. As the teen boy goes through his computer to finish up work, Cora decides to chat a little.*
Cora: So what type of story were you hoping to go for?
Megan: *Focused on game* Something that would get their attention with facts they never knew before! Something they always wanted to see but never did.
Cora: And finding Big Hero 7's identities would've been it huh?
Megan: Yup. But you guys have a point; I would risk their lives if I do succeed. The only other ones are unsolved mysteries...mysteries... mysteries... *Gets lightbulb* That's it!*To Baymax* Check!
*Megan gets up and rushes out the door.*
Megan: Bye guys! See ya later! And thanks for the idea!
Hiro: What idea?
Baymax: Good bye.
*That is when Baymax's fist launches up and lands back down with Hiro. Cora then pulls up her phone to call Fred. Somewhere Fred is awakening to the ringing of his phone. And that is when he takes a good look at his surroundings.*
Fred: Exposed pipes? Beams? Plastic tarps? Oh no! I've been captured by an evil doer!
*He sees to his right his phone with the icon of Cora calling him. He struggles for a bit until he realizes his ropes are tight.*
Fred: OK, plan B... Help! Halp! Somebody help!
*The lights turn on in Fred's right side...and the hopping figure of Minimax coming towards him.*
Fred: MiniMax! You're alright! Heathcliff said you were missing from your rice bath! Now could you untie me so we can escape?
Minimax: I could...
Fred: Thanks-
Minimax: *Walking past Fred* But I'm not going too! You are my prisoner! Evil laugh sequence initiated. Muahahahahahahaha!
Fred: Wait? Prisoner? You brought me here?
Minimax: Indeed! I am also responsible for all of your *Uses hands for air quotes* 'Accidents'. Finger quotes intended!
*He then regals Fred with the times of how he tried to assassinate the comic book geek, from the porch falling down on him all the way to his skateboard kidnapping.*
Fred: But why? We're best friends! We're supposed to be on the same side? Fighting for justice?
Minimax: Mua! *Brings Fred's chair up* I laugh at the face of justice! Wickedness is my aim! And you , Fred, are my foe!
Fred: Wait, why are you- *Realization* The water! It must've messed with your inside worky parts! At least that's what Hiro would explain it... Cora was right about this..
*Minimax throws a handful of rice at Fred's face in retaliation.*
Minimax: Empty carbs can't save you now Fred!
Fred: Maybe not. But Big Hero 7 can! I bet they're on their way here right now!
*The lights turn on as Baymax spins around.*
Minimax: I'm counting on it! Why only take out one?
*And while he spins pieces of red armor form on his body to show a more villainous look to fit his more viscous personality.*
Minimax: When I could destroy all of Big Hero 7? Mini Maximum Villainy! Evil dance sequence initiated.
*As Minimax does his dance of doom, Fred is left to think how will his friends save him and recover Minimax.*
________
*Hiro and Cora contacted the rest of the gang when they explained that they had called Fred to talk about Minimax only to learn that Minimax is gone from Heathcliff since Fred wouldn't pick up. That is when they received a face call from Minimax himself.*
Minimax: A hearty hello nemeses! It is I! Minimax! If you ever want to see your Fred again, you must come and face me! good luck!
Hiro: The water must've damaged his personality chip.
Cora: I told Fred to bring him over to check him! And now he's held hostage by his own side kick!
Minimax: Initiate evil laugh. Muahahahaha!-
Gogo: *Shuts off call* Nope.
Honey Lemon: We need to find Freddie now.
Hiro; Baymax, can you scan the city for Fred?
Baymax: Scanning...
*Once they find a location the gang suit up and fly/drive over to rescue their friend from the mini bot gone rouge.*
Cora: Fred is up on the 23rd floor.
Gogo: On our way!
*Hiro, Cora, and Baymax are the first to land inside where they tread carefully to see Fred up ahead.*
Cora: Are you OK Fred? Did he hurt you?
Fred: No... *Reveals a scribbled face* My sidekick betrayed me!
*The alarms are set off to reveal flying magnets heading their way to pin down Fred's rescue party. Hiro and Cora manage to get away but Baymax is ultimately pinned down.*
Baymax: Please note. I am unable to move.
*The teens then move out of the way of a falling beams meant to crush them. They managed to get themselves safely to a metal bench to the wall, but because of the beams blocking their way, they are essentially trapped as well. Hiro and Cora try to push the beams together with all their strength.*
Hiro: Its … Too heavy-
Minimax: Mua!
*The teens jump back startled as Minimax pops his head to see them.*
Minimax: You have taken my bait! *Takes Baymax's rocket fist* And now I will take this!
Baymax: That is rocket fist.
Minimax: And now your powerful fist will do my bidding! Muahahahaha!
*The elevator ding is heard as the door opens to reveal Wasabi, Gogo, and Honey Lemon coming up to join the fight.*
Wasabi: Wow, Minimax did this?
Hiro: Guys!
Cora: Its a trap!
Minimax: Evil fist sequence initiated.
Wasabi: AAh!
*Wasabi presses the close button multiple times as Honey Lemon uses her chem boots to seal up the opening just in time to stop the fist.*
Wasabi: OK! He can't get in!...*He tries to push the wall back*… and we can't get out.
Honey Lemon: Oops.
Gogo: Well that was fun.
Wasabi: *Looking up the ceiling* We might be able to go this way!
*He cuts open a circle up where Wasabi is the first to pull himself out..*
Minimax: I am right here.
*And greeted by the evil Minimax. Wasabi falls back as the minibot removes one of his plasma blades and activates it.*
Wasabi: No no! Please don't do that!
Minimax: Sorry lowly adversary but you are going down! Minimaximum literalness!
*He cuts the cables connecting to the elevator to which leads it falling down and Wasabi screaming his lungs out.*
Honey Lemon: Guys hold on!
*Honey Lemon uses her chem boots to launch up as she grabs her girlfriend and Wasabi out of the crashing elevator. Soon she throws out chemballs to act as cushions for their fall.*
Wasabi: OK! This is better...
*Fred, during all the ruckus, had managed to walk a little bit and start rubbing the ropes against the metal beam to cut himself loose. Baymax looks at Fred.*
Fred: Don't worry, I have a plan! *Continues to rub the ropes* Just. Need, to work. a little- Yes!
*With his ropes now loose he stands up, removes the ink from his face, and calls up his skymax for his super suit.*
Fred: Fly! Fly like the wind Skymax!
*As Skymax soars towards his owner, Gogo kicks down the door after they found a staircase and headed up to the 23rd floor again. Gogo heads over to Baymax as the other two look for their friends*
Wasabi: Fred? Fred?
*Gogo uses her discs to break the magnets to free Baymax.*
Baymax: Thank you.
Hiro: We're over here!
*Honey Lemon tries to lift the beam only for Baymax to lift it up, letting Hiro and Cora go free.*
Cora: Thanks Baymax.
Wasabi: But where's Fred?
Minimax: Yes!
*The lights turn on to show Minimax on a chair.*
Minimax: I would like to know the same thing!
Hiro: This ends now Minimax!
Cora: By the time we defeat you you're gonna be sorry for all of this!
Minimax: What are you? My mother?!…
Gogo: Hiro and Cora are your creators. In a sense, they are your parents.
Cora: *Slightly blushing and embarrassed* E-Either way! You are grounded!
Hiro:*Also blushing* I second that!
Minimax: Never! Villainy everlasting!
*He flies up to the team where he goes around in circles, using his own rocket fists to knock them down.*
Wasabi: Where'd he go?
Minimax: Down here!
*Wasabi tries to grab Minimax only for the minibot to kick his butt. Now Gogo is left to chase down the rouge minibot. She throws her disc to hit him only for him to dance on top of it and send it back to Gogo and punch her. Minimax flies over to the recovered Honey Lemon where he uses her purse strap to try to pull off her. *
Minimax: I'll take that!
Honey Lemon: No!
Minimax: He successfully removes it from Honey Lemon, leaving him to gloat as he uses it to pin down the rest of Big Hero 7 with goo.*
Minimax: And that is how you do evil!
*That is when an invisble tongue grabs hold of the purse then to Minimax, bringing them down. That is when Fred is revealed in his chameleon suit.*
Fred: Sorry Minimax! This is gonna hurt me just as much as its gonna hurt you!
*He uses the tongue to burst open a water pipe where it sprays on Minimax, causing him to fritz once more before shutting down.*
Fred: We are going to need a whole lot more rice!
Cora: That... and Hiro and I to make a proper reparation to his circuits.
*The next day, the gang are at SFIT where Hiro and Cora are adding the finishing touches to ensure Minimax won't have that freak out ever again.*
Hiro; *To Minimax* And now you're water proof.
Cora: No more spills and leaks for this guy ever again.
Fred: Nothing like what happened will ever happen again?
Hiro: Exactly.
Cora: Still didn't like you didn't bring Minimax over as soon as possible after he dried out, but hey. No one's perfect.
*Hiro taps Minimax's head where the minibot goes through his reboot before standing up. Fred looks on guiltily at his sidekick buddy before the minibot turns around to see Fred.*
Minimax: Fred?
Fred: Minimax!
Minimax: Fred.
*The two rush towards each other where Fred picks him up and holds him close.*
Fred: Wait- Please tell me you're not going to drop anymore heavy stuff on me?
Minimax: Heart chuckle. Of course not! You are my best friend!
*Fred hugs him close as his eyes and nose start to run.*
Baymax: Would you like a tissue?
Fred: No thanks *Sniffs*
*Minimax uses his hands to blow dry Fred's face to which Fred is grateful for.*
Fred: Glad to have you back Minimax!
Minimax: Glad to be back! I apologize for the wayward fist!
*He and Baymax do the fist bump to which they do their own signature boom.*
Baymax and Minimax: Ba la la la.
Hiro: That's... our thing.
Cora: Just remember Fred, Minimax is grounded for a week, so no late night movie marathons for this little guy.
Minimax: Understood.
Fred: Yeah. Thanks guys.
Hiro: Its fine. I'm just glad things are alright now.
*Later on the teens head back to hang out with Megan where they see her put away the photos of Big Hero 7 to a box.*
Megan: Hey guys! Dad let you up?
Cora: Yup. *Looks at the box* So I'm guessing you found the next best thing?
Megan: I have! It took some convincing from Dad but he agreed. She was his friend afterall.
Hiro: She? Who's your dad friend?
*Megan goes over to another box where she pulls up a black and white photo of a teenage girl... a familiar, strawberry blonde, green eyed, freckled teenage girl. Her photo is show alongside a news clipping dating 16 years ago with the title Westerburg Cheerleader gone missing. This certainly widened Hiro's and Cora's eyes.*
Cora: Is that?-
Megan: Chara Bonete! I decided that I would write about the mystery of Chara Bonete's disappearance. And if I'm lucky, I may find out what happened to her.
Hiro: I-Is that so?... and you said your dad was friends with her?
Chief Cruz: Yup.
*The three teens turn their heads to see Chief Cruz walk in with his yearbook.*
Chief Cruz: I was a football player back then at the games. Chara was always there to bring up the spirit. We talked and hung out... she was a sweet girl... And with Super Slueth Megan Cruz on the case... We can finally find out what happened to her all those years ago.
*Of all the things their friend Megan chose... it had to be the one about Chara. And they knew they can't bring this up with them. For one, they don't know the creature was Chara. And two, how could they even explain about her time with the sirens? Revealing her, would mean revealing Kage, then her grandmother and everything else. Including Cora's more disastrously roots with her psychotic grandmother lurking like a spider, just waiting for one mistake to happen that would cost them everything. At Cora's home, Chara and Kage are sitting together as Chara reads aloud a book, a gift from Orso Knox after their recovery, while their Baymax delivers two cups of coffee with vanilla cream to their side in the living room.*
Chara:' Oh what a tangled web we weave, when we first practice to deceive...'
A.N: Hello everyone! I'm back! So from what I saw the last chapter was a bit of a mixed bag, but I do love that you have been patient for that one and this chapter! Now, someone pointed out that I've been spelling Grandville when it should have been Granville. Yes, I learned on later that is how you spell it, but at this point I've been so used to referring her as Grandville that it felt second nature. But if that is bothering you guys, I'll try to spell it as Granville from now on. this is my first chapter back so I apologize if its not much, especially since college is up and stuff will need to be done. I will try to write more with the episodes and explore some more. Till then, I hope you enjoy this chapter and thank you for reading Big Hero 7! Love you guys!
(P.s: I did add a little fourth wall humor there. May or may not be the last time. Will remove it if it really bothers ya'll. love you!)

Just something I have been working on ^^ (renders from @myu-resource​ and @kosmosinusa​ )
SO as you might have noticed from my previous post that I just rewatched Sailor Moon R The Movie: The Promise of the Rose and it was simply for this!
Even before of the announcement that Sailor Moon S Movie/ Kaguya-hime no Koibito is going to be maybe into a musical, I have been wondering what it would be like if the movies were made into musicals! So I watched the movie and at the same time I was taking notes about which actor would be best for each role and which songs would go into this musical! (I thought about making this a Youtube video but because there is going to be a lot of explaining and stuff so I figured it would be easier to just do a post :D) So I guess you could call this a “What if?” Myu or something :D (or just a Dream Myu)
Hope you enjoy this because it TOOK A FREAKING FOREVER XD And I even lost half of the progress so that was fun xD ALSO there are probably spelling errors and stuff because I’m not native English speaker and this was kinda tiring lol but hope you enjoy! xoxo
(Also gonna put “Keep Reading” here because this post is looong af)
Cast: 
Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon: Hotaru Nomoto (I don’t know what it is but everytime I think about R movie and wondering who would be the best Moon for that, Hotaru just immediately jumps into my mind. Hotaru isn’t the best Moon imo but she is SUPER AMAZING and since Moon is a little bit more mature in this movie and I feel like Hotaru is a very good option, since her serious and caring(and goofy :D) Moon was soooo amazing!)
Mamoru Chiba/Tuxedo Mask: Yuu Shirota (Since this movie is kinda centered on Mamoru and his past I feel like Yuu is the best choice, since he brought Mamoru’s sensitive side more up than anyone else imo, especially in SRD and KOK)
Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury: Chieko Kawabe (So in the musicals Chieko was really bubbly and cute which wasn’t very Mercury like, but seeing her playing Naru in PGSM brought a completely other side of her up which is why feel that she could also be that shy and studious girl who doesn’t really know who to interact with people)
Rei Hino/ Sailor Mars: Misako Kotani (Since this is movie is fully on the anime and Misako basically is the perfect Anime-Mars for me (picking fights with Usagi but also caring about her the most WHILE also being that serious miko when something is wrong), I knew immediately that she was the right choice)
Makoto Kino/Sailor Jupiter: Yuu Takahashi (Yuu was the first Jupiter to me who actually showed us the feminine side of Jupiter, and since it is kinda important in the movie, when they are remembering their past and stuff, I thought that she would be the best)
Minako Aino/Sailor Venus: Rimo Hasegawa (It was REALLY hard to pick a Venus for this one, since Venus’ past has never really been explored in Myu (Which they totally should! just give as the goddamn Sailor V musical) but then I felt like Rimo was the one who actually got to the closest point (in LMF) and would be PERFECT for this one
Chibi-Usa: Ayano Gunji (So Chibi-Usa doesn’t really have big role in the movie, heck she wasn’t even a Senshi then so I don’t know if they would actually include her in the musical lol but anyways, since it’s the basic Anime-Chibi-Usa I felt that Ayano woulb be best since she pretty much was the Anime-Chibi-Usa)
Fiore: Kenji Urai (OKAY SO after seeing the Death Note musical I noticed how well Kenji plays as a villain, so that is why I decided to choose him for Fiore, and since he is a former Tux and he was done other stuff with Yuu before too, it would be pretty cool :D)
Xenian Flower (voice): Tomoko Inami (SO this was the one I struggled the most with. For like an hour or two I just went through all different actors from Myu and listened all different songs from Myu to find someone who would be best for Xenian Flower. Since Xenian Flower is just so manipulative and doesn’t care about else and just does thing for it’s own advantage so I felt like it couldn’t just be played by some random(if you get what I mean) but then it hit me that Tomoko would be amazing at playing Xenian Flower since Mistress 9 is pretty much the same, manipulative, deceiving (when in the anime she tricked Sailor Moon by lying that Hotaru is still alive into giving her the Holy Grail) and does everything for her own advantage. And her voice is so good and I think that it would be good for the Xenian Flower! Also the reason why it says “voice” is because the Xenian Flower is just hanging on Fiore’s chest and it would be kinda impossible for her to just hang on Kenji’s chest for the whole musical XD)
Flower Youma: Ado Endou, Miki Kawasaki, Kaori Ishikawa ,Mio Nunokawa, Yuka Kobayashi, Tomoko Inami, Ayumi Nakaoka, Mayuko Kawamoto (Ado and Miki are pretty self explanatory, Kaori was SO amazing as Nehellenia/Lemures, I included Mio because she was a pretty epic Telulu and she is all about the flowers so that’s why :D Yuka is just awesome so that’s why she is here xD I wanted include Tomoko in the Ensemble crew since it would only be her voice as the Xenian Flower so that way she could also be physically on the stage. I just really liked Ayumi and Mayuko xD Mayuko was super sweet and Ayumi seemed really good! I wish she could have gotten a proper role in Myu)
Musical Numbers:
1. BestFriends (At the flower garden) Inners + Chibi-Usa (Even though there is only a short clip of this song and the instrumental online, I feel like this song fits in! Especially because the movie has a lot to do with the girls friendship with Usagi. Also included Chibi-Usa because she needs to be a part of some songs at least :D) 
2. Otome no Policy (After Usagi and Mamoru’s failed kiss, when the other girls prank Usagi with the worm) Inners + Chibi-Usa (Even though I haven’t seen Super Live, I feel like Otome no Policy was a nice inclusion! And since this is Sailor Moon R Movie and Otome No Policy is the ending theme for that season, I think it would be cool!)
3. Kaze no Shijin (When Mamoru is talking about his past with Usagi) Mamoru and Fiore (Beryl’s lines would be changed and they would be sang by Fiore. Since this was pretty much the moment in SRD and KOK when Mamoru opens about his past to Usagi, this song HAS to be included. And obviously Fiore wouldn’t physically be there but in Mamoru’s mind or something when he starts to remember stuff)
4. Fiore's Theme Song (When the Flower Youma seed is sent to Earth) Fiore, Xenian Flower and Flower Youmas (So since this song doesn’t actually exist it doesn’t have a name so it’s just that :D In the movie Fiore doesn’t appear in that scene but I think it would be cool if he could have his “villain song” or something. Maybe Fiore could be reminiscing about his past with Mamoru and indicating his hate of Usagi. Maybe even the Xenian Flower could have a solo part there)
5. Sailor Make Up! (When Usagi and Chibi-Usa get knocked into the cafe and the Senshi transform and start to fight with Flower Youma(s)) Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Venus (I feel like this song would really fit in because there aren’t that many songs with just the four inners and because this song doesnät really get finished because the enemies overpowered the Senshi. Also I really like this song and it’s sad that it’s pretty much forgotten :( )
6. Make Up! Kumikyoku ~ Moon ~ (When Chibi-Usa wakes the fainted Usagi up and she transforms into Sailor Moon to save everyone from the Flower Youma) Sailor Moon (This is pretty much fits in since it is Sailor Moon’s transformation song and because the other Senshi are in trouble so it just makes it even more perfect for Sailor Moon to sing this while she saves everyone. Obviously it would be much a shortet version, similiar to what it was in Kumikyoku Medley but maybe a little bit longer. Ofc without Tuxedo Mask or the Shitennou. Probably just the introduction and then some dancing and finally Moon Tiara Action/Boomerang)
7. Tuxedo Versus (When Fiore is about to attack Sailor Moon but Tuxedo Mask comes to save her) Tuxedo Mask (I think this fits the scene best out of all the Tux songs since either they are too calm or too energetic. I mean this song is pretty energetic too for the scene in the movie because it was pretty calm since the Flower Youma was dead and it was just Fiore trying to kill Sailor Moon. But you would think that in the musical there would be more than one youma and Tux could just come to save Sailor Moon from them and the Fiore would appear to do his thing)
Act 2 (Act 1 ends when Fiore stabs Tuxedo Mask and takes him to his asteroid and the curtain descends as Sailor Moon screams for Tuxedo Mask, similarly to NogiMyu)
8. Fiore's past & Truth about Xenian Flower (Mamoru is in the resurrection tank or whatever, and Fiore tells him about his past while the Senshi learn the truth about Xenian Flower) Whole Cast (Senshi, Chibi-Usa, Mamoru, Fiore, Xenian Flower and Flower Youma) (SO this song doesn’t exist either but I feel like this song would be one of those epic songs where the Senshi and the villains sing their own lines and it becomes one huge song similar to Sailor Battle La Reconquista from La Reconquista or Shuuketsu - Yume no Atsumaru Basho from Amour Eternal or Triple Dreams from Yume Senshi. In that song the Xenian Flower could tell about her true goal and Fiore and Mamoru about their past while the Senshi are shocked about the the Xenian Flower. Also in the movie they learn the truth about the Xenian Flower from Luna and Artemis but in the musicals they could learn it from Ami who could have found it from her computer or something)
9. Ai no Senshi New version (When the Senshi use Sailor Teleport to go the asteroid to save Mamoru) Inners (So this would be similar to what Sailor War was in Old Myu (another good option for this scene) but I decided to put Ai no Senshi instead since Ai no Senshi is also from Sailor Moon R and it’s really epic battle song and I have always wondered what it would sound like in a musical!)
10. Watashitachi Sailor Guardians battle ver. (When the Senshi are at the asteroid and start battling against Flower Youmas) Inners (pretty self explanatory :D each Senshi sing at their own turn and attack the youma and at the end Sailor Moon destroys them all with Moon Princess Halation) 
11. Sorezore no Elegy (When the Senshi are trapped by Fiore and he demands Sailor Moon to make a choice, drop your wand or they all die) Inners (Okay this song fits PERFECTLY. Since they all are telling Sailor Moon to fight and survive and leave them be even though Sailor Moon doesn’t. Especially the line “This life was dedicated to you long ago” is just simply perfect for this scene and really hits the feels. Also Pluto’s part wouldn’t be there)
12. BestFriends Ballad ver. (When Fiore is sucking Sailor Moon’s energy, telling her how horrible of person she is and how they all will never understand loneliness and sadness, everyone starts to think about their lonely and sad past) Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Venus (So this version doesn’t exist either but it just came to me that it would be simply perfect for this scene since everyone starts to think about their sad and lonely past before they met Usagi and when they also try to convince Fiore to not kill Usagi and tell him how lonely they were before they met her. Also because the movie has a lot of stuff about the girls friendship with Usagi and since the regular version was at the beginning, it just hits the feels.)
13. Fiore and Mamoru’s Duet (Mamoru who has escaped from the resurrection tank, throws a rose at Fiore telling him that he remembers everything and tries to convince him to not kill Usagi) Mamoru and Fiore (so yeah this doesn’t exist either but it would just be perfect point for them to have a duet where Mamoru tries to reach out to Fiore and tell him that Usagi is not a bad person)
14. Otome no Policy Ballade ver. (When Fiore learns the origin of the rose that Mamoru gave him) Sailor Moon (When listening to the ballad version of Otome no Policy, it just came to me that it would fit this scene so well. I can just hear Usagi singing gently and quietly, trying to sooth Fiore by showing him where Mamoru got his rose while he is trying to take the Silver Crystal)
15. Moon Revenge (When Usagi uses the Silver Crystal to stop the asteroid from crashing to the Earth) Inners (Pretty self explanatory :D one of the BEST songs from Sailor Moon and it needs to be in this)
16. Moon Revenge Piano ver. (After Usagi has died from using the Silver Crystal and everyone is crying) Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus and Tuxedo Mask (This also played at the same scene in the movie so it just has to be in this and it would so much hit in the feels)
17. Moon Revenge (curtain call) (Similarly to what it was in UNV, when the actors come to bow, it’s instumental, but at the end everyone sings the last verse)
Service Numbers
1. La Soldier Inners + Chibi-Usa (Obviously)
2. Ai no Starshine Inners (Since it was first sang in Petite Entrangere, which is basically Sailor Moon R, I wanted to include a song from that arc’s musical)
3. Moon Revenge Inners (without any talking because during the musical there probably would since it’s a pretty important scene)
4. Moonlight Densetsu Whole Cast (Senshi, Chibi-Usa, Tuxedo Mask, Fiore, Xenian Flower and Flower Youma) (Obviously again)
OMG I FINALLY DID IT :D I cannot believe how long it just took to do this xD But it was really fun! (though frustrating at one point when I lost the progress...)
Probably next I’m going be doing the same thing Sailor Moon S The Movie but it’s gonna have to wait a while I think xD I don’t know
Also a thing I realised while writing this was that the cast has actors from each stage!/There are actors from each Sailor Moon’s stage (well not NogiMyu or Super Live tho)
AnzaMoon: Misako
FuminaMoon: Ayano
MiyukiMoon: Chieko, Ayano
MarinaMoon: Chieko, Yuu Shirota
SatomiMoon: Yuu Takahashi
HotaruMoon: Hotaru, Rimo
and I wasn’t even thinking about that when making this xD Pretty funny coincidence lol

aikatsu friends episode 66 spoilers (+ self-caused agony over ‘marutto’)
Wakaba’s squeaky mouse voice is cute.
‘marutto’ is a hard catchphrase to translate. I’ve tried for like 10 whole seconds before and gave up. there’s no word that means ‘circle’ and also ‘completely’ in english (like marutto does), so you’d have to say like... ‘I remembered it all the way around!’ or something like that...? hmm I wonder what the pro japanese language experts on the aifriends wiki are saying. oh, they just said ‘completely’... lol ok
aww it’s so cute how obsessed Wakaba is with Aine. but what’s with Mirai’s serious expression?
from the preview with Wakaba wearing the Star Harmony uniform, I thought she might transfer in, but she’s just wearing it for the heck of it... oh :(
everyone’s fighting over her, haha
so Mirai wants Wakaba to find the final thing she’s lacking to be an idol at Star Harmony’s open campus. what is it
Wakaba replaced Aine for a dance lesson because she had to help a lost kid find their way back to wherever, and ended up doing Aine’s part perfectly (ofc, bc that’s her idol superpower). I guess that’s why she ends up getting to perform with Mio, but...
...but I see what Mirai was saying now. everyone’s talking about how amazing it is that Wakaba can imitate anyone perfectly, but she doesn’t get recognition for being herself. maybe Mirai wants her to get a personality lmao
green hair is Wakaba’s big sis!! oh... ok, not her real big sis, but an older girl who used to be her neighbor. why does Wakaba look like she’s suffering SO much around her though
so Wakaba and Kozue made a promise to be Friends when they were little and took turns recording each other dancing. is Wakaba like super depressed that she’s not doing aikatsu with Kozue? a storyline about how you might not always get to be Friends with the person you choose first but you can move on and make a new Friend would be p cool (also frankly I can’t see Kozue being remotely popular so I can’t imagine that she was designed to be on the show permanently...)
I like how even though the person that Wakaba idolizes most is Aine, Reflect Moon have just stepped in and adopted her for real, haha.
WOW OK... this is not what I expected AT ALL... Kozue had made it to the final round of an idol audition (not the one Wakaba won), but when she injured her leg and was unable to participate, Wakaba stepped in, disguising herself and imitating Kozue in the audition. but she was found out after wowing the judges. she didn’t pass the audition or anything, and Kozue couldn’t have passed bc of her leg anyway, but still... like I get that her motivation was coming from a good place, and she’s just a kid and wasn’t thinking about what the next step would be, so it’s ok, but it’s still a pretty wild thing to even consider doing
...and then because of that, Wakaba was able to meet Mirai and get a direct invitation to Mirai’s Miracle audition. whew, ok, I can understand why Wakaba would feel guilty.
and Kozue doesn’t even know what happened.... yikes... again like Kaguya I don’t think she’d be angry or anything, it’s just. a really big thing to not tell her and then avoid her for two years so you don’t have to!!
Wakaba just apologized without explaining anything at all. so did Kozue know this whole time? whatever, Kozue’s going to become a film director now so who cares I guess
Aine forgot that she had another job scheduled on the same day as the open school... it worked out well for the anime audience that wants to see Wakaba perform for the first time, but... ;;;
Honey Cat’s cute..................... I really always forget that I love them until they’re on screen though haha
oh... maybe what Wakaba was missing all along was self-confidence.
marutto icchaimasu... hmm... yeah, there’s no normal-sounding way to translate it unless you totally ignore the double meaning (and why they chose ‘marutto’ instead of any other word that means the same thing, I still don’t understand.) ‘I’ll give it a go-around’....... bleh
she’s making OK-circles on either side of her mouth as a reference to marutto. so you're not allowed to just translate it as ‘completely’. why are circles so important to this girl’s character? sigh
Wakaba’s Link coord is the cutest of THEM ALL, imo. but I really like natural-type coords, so ofc I would think so...
she’s got a lot of hair so her cg model doesn’t look as big-headed as a lot of the others do, nice.
HAHA Aine’s tv job double-booking was just a big joke they all played to help give Wakaba the confidence to get on stage. this is reminiscent of the trick they played on Alicia before but since they weren’t pretending like everyone was literally dying this time, I’m ok with it. I should have known that not even Aine would be that forgetful, she’s a real Diamond Friend idol after all.
!!!!!!! come to think of it (now that Mirai’s mentioning it again so we all remember), Wakaba loving Aine so gosh darn much that she just starts doing Aine’s choreography in the middle of a different dance for an audition is a SUPER obvious reference to Akari’s audition where she said that she was Ichigo... oh... my heart... I’m so weak to aikatsu nostalgia!!!
here is the moral of the story delivered by Love Me Tear at the end, that copying someone to be more like them is just another way to improve yourself and isn’t a bad thing at all. followed by a declaration from Mirai that Wakaba is ready for her official debut! but it can’t be next week, s3 doesn’t start for two more weeks. but according to the preview it is?? maybe it’s another performance in the Cherry Link coord that doesn’t reveal her brand, just her song. oh, but the Wakaba-related game news is coming out next week anyway, so maybe it is both.
youtube recommended To a New Stage to me at the end of the ep, heck yeah time to listen to it again (lmao

Least Favorite Female Character(s): Ughhh This is tough... It’s not that I don’t like them, it’s just they have certain qualities that make me like them less than my favorites if that makes any sense. Because I like Karin as an independent character, and Hinata had so much potential (as did half of the females in this series), but they’re not my favorites. 
Least Favorite Male Character(s): Danzo fuck you danzo i h8 u, Kisame (I’m sorry, fanart and fanfics I read when I was like 10 just made me uncomfortable xD), Kakazu (He creeped me out, ok) i hate video game Deidara, spamming piece of shit
Sensei: Kakashi, stick with the OG Naruto, but besides him, I’d have to go with The Legendary Sannin, they did really well with training NaruSakuSauce.
Team: Team 7, always and forever, and Team Minato, because, parallels.
Clan: Uchiha
Hokage: OBITO UCHIHA FOR HOKAGE Hashirama (//distant screeching from Madara) and my bby Naruto Uzumaki because he reached his dream.
Kage: Fuck me up, Mizukage, and ofc Gaara
Village: Konoha
Akatsuki: Konan, “Tobi”, Uchiha Itachi, Pein, Sasori
Jutsu: Yin Seal Release, Strength of a Hundred Seal, Ninja Art Creation Rebirth, Sage Mode, Susanoo, Summoning Jutsu, Amaterasu, Tailed Beast Bomb, Kushina’s Chains, so much more
Chapters: Oh boy, I don’t remember the specific chapters but: When Zabuza realizes how important Haku was, Orochimaru gives Sasuke the curse mark, Sakura protects Sasuke and Naruto in the FoD, Sasuke wakes up with the curse mark, Sakura and Ino’s fight, Neji and Hinata’s fight, Gaara and Lee’s fight, Neji and Naruto’s fight, Gaara and Sasuke’s fight, Sakura protects Sasuke from Gaara, Sasuke admits how precious Sakura (and Naruto) are to him, Itachi vs Sasuke (pre), Rooftop scene, Sakura’s confession (pre), Sasuke Retrieval Arc, Naruto and Sasuke’s fight (pre), Team 7 spar, Chiyo and Sakura vs Sasori, Chiyo giving her life to Gaara, Team 7 Reunion, Nine Tails vs Orochimaru, Naruto meets Kushina, Sasuke vs Itachi, Sasuke vs Team 7, Five Kage Summit, Madara reveals himself, Obito’s backstory, Jiraya’s death, Hokage are summoned, Sakura unlocks her seal, Team 7 Reunion (good), Sakura and Obito save Sasuke, Team 7 destroys Kaguya, Sasuke vs Naruto (final battle), Team 7 together again
Fight Scene: Naruto and Sasuke vs Haku, Both Naruto vs Sasuke fights, Kakashi vs Obito, Sasuke vs Itachi
Story Arc: Land of Waves Arc, Chunin Exam Arc, Destruction of the Hidden Leaf, Sasuke Retrieval Arc, Shinobi War Arc 
Filler: In pre-Shippuden, I liked the one filler where Team 7 tries to find out what is under Kakashi’s mask. That’s literally it, the fillers are absolute trash.
What is your…
OTP (explain why): SasuSaku; I’ve watched this series since I was like 6-7 years old (19 now). Sakura was my absolute favorite character, probably because I was obsessed with the color pink and I just thought she was absolutely beautiful. The FoD episodes are what solidified my love for Sasuke and Sakura together, seeing the concern he had for who harmed her and how she stopped his curse mark, and it just continued from there. I would get on YouTube and watch countless numbers of AMV’s between the two of them, one I can remember perfectly was an Everytime We Touch AMV with them and it had the FoD scene and I just absolutely adored it xD. From then on out I would google (or go to ask.com and Photobucket) and look up photos of them and watch AMV and Naruto chatrooms xD kill me.
NOTP(be nice): SasuKarin, I prefer Karin with Suigetsu tbh BROTP: NaruSaku, SasuNaru, InoSaku, KarinSaku FRIENDSHIP FOR ALL OT3: NaruSakuSasu and InoSakuTem Crossover Ship: Literally none. Now if we’re talking crack ships... ಠ‿ಠ I’m a slut for MadaSaku (lowkey hinting at marriage to @madara-fate), ObiSaku, KibaHina, InoShika
Do you have any headcanons: Just that Sasuke is a complete dork around Sarada and Sakura and they play cute family games like Monopoly and Uno and they’re just a wholesome family now that Sasuke is back from his mission.
Are you happy with the ending? What would you have done differently?: Sigh. Yes and no. During the whole run of Shippuden, it was referenced, even by Naruto himself, that he and Sasuke would die during their final battle. Do I wish they would’ve? No, because then Naruto’s efforts to become Hokage would’ve been futile, and that would’ve been a huge dick move lol. Sure, have Naruto say that in order to build suspense, but I mean, come on. I also wish more people knew the true reason behind Itachi’s actions, but that’s just a personal feeling. Also, more Team 7, I love those fuckers.  How do you feel about the new generation?  If it’s anything like the Naruto fillers, we’re going to have problems lol. But, I find them adorable, spinning images of their parents and a good personality mixture of both spouses. Except, Shikadai, he is all Shikamaru personality wise.
Say something about your favorite character. Good and bad: Female: Sakura Haruno. God Bless, I would go to war for her. Once I saw her in episode 3 of Naruto when it aired on Toonami, I was immediately drawn to her. As I mentioned earlier, I thought she was absolutely beautiful, and she rocked my favorite color. Honestly, she became my role model and helped me become who I am today (as dumb as that sounds). I admired how intelligent she is and how strong she has become, all without a limitless chakra supply or kekkei genkai. She’s a relatable character, for me, and is proof of what hard work and determination can achieve. She is always there for her friends and spent years trying to help rescue Sasuke from darkness, alongside Naruto. I only wish Kishi would’ve made her more than a support character in the first series, as she would’ve been perfect with genjutsu and more ninjutsu. Also, SS is my otp, but tone it down a bit in the first series.
Male: Sasuke Uchiha. Ya boy went through too much shit when he was a kid and it fucked him up. He wanted to live a normal life with Team 7, but Michael Jackson’s twin had to come and fuck everything up. I think he was a perfect rival for Naruto, because ya know, fucking bonds, but dammit Sasuke you should’ve sent a letter every now and again, even if its just a drawing of you flipping off Naruto. Your revenge having ass got old every now and then, but you are still a precious child.
What would a child between your OTP look like?: 
Tumblr media
Say something genuinely nice about your NoTP: She cared for him and helped him, also helped deliver his child.
Say something negative about your OTP: Sasuke was lil bitch at times and Sakura was too focused on him at times.
Is there any way you could be convinced to ship your NoTP?: Nah fam, SuiKarin all the way. If I did ship them, it would be in a more Brotp. What would make you change your mind about the pairing? Literally nothing. They are good as friends. What makes you mad about the series? Studio Pierrot. Too many fillers, too many unexplained power-ups like wtf, and tbh Anko should’ve been more important to the series. If you could see anything happen in the series, what would it be? Asuma and Kurenai’s relationship, Choji and Kauri because what, Sarada find out more about her clan, Kakashi’s retirement lol What would you say to Kishimoto if given the chance?  Thank you for everything! As much as I wanted to throw my phone across the room at the fandom and some chapters, I honestly couldn’t imagine a life without it. Thank you for making that aspect of my childhood well worth it!

Naruto Shippuden: ep 471-474
471-472: 
Hagoromo appeared to exposition dump on the Hokage team by using Madara’s cast off legs, which contain chakra from the bijuu and also both his sons. Ngl I’m kinda weirded out realizing that these body parts are just lying around. Not sure why, I expected them to just dissolve into nothing after being cut off. 
Hagoromo doesn’t have any chakra left because he gave it away (to Naruto and Sasuke). Otherwise he would have some. 
Here is the start of Obito’s death and it’s so bad. AC knows how much I complained in the chat. Highlights include: 
Ghost Rin out of nowhere, for no reason. 
Kakashi: “thanks for helping me die, Rin, now the three of us can reunite in the afterlife.” Obito: “Kakashi would just get in the way, let’s spend some time alone with just the two of us, Rin.” 
Dude, she’s still fourteen. This is awkward. 
I know it’s a joke, but it’s a very misplaced one. 
It’s hard to take Naruto chiding Sasuke about teamwork seriously when here is Kakashi spouting off the same nonsense about being useless. 
Obito and Kakashi are both totally OK with dying, but... gotta... be useful...
WHY the Hokage obsession. Worse, they use the “fill the whole in his heart” phrasing, which was previously used for having people you’re close to in general. But I guess Obito can’t imagine having a family or friends or even just comrades without being The Most Useful In The Village. ????? awful
Zetsu really, really wants to drag Obito. Weirdly mad at him in particular. 
Naruto says that since Obito had a dream of being Hokage, he was definitely cool. OK, but you’re the one who dragged him a bunch for giving up on that dream!
Rin and Obito’s conversation is so bizarre. Rin is just totally ok with him committing every atrocity under the sun and then jokes “who are you going to save this time” like he regularly saved people?? I’m gonna write that fic about Rin being stonecold down for mass murder, I swear
473: 
Speaking of the afterlife. I am against it. 
Sakumo was specifically hanging out in a void with a campfire, but apparently you don’t need to do that, you can just move on into technicolor space and clouds land. 
Rin apparently knows everything and can talk to Obito before they finalize being dead as such. But I guess no one bothered talking some sense into Madara while he was dead. Or telling the dead Hokage team anything, since they didn’t know about the massacre either. 
The afterlife has the same general look as any communication via just chakra. It does have different colors, though I’m not sure how to interpret them. Rin is pink-purple. Kakashi later is teal. Obito had been grey-blue. And I think Sasuke way back when was yellow...? 
“Chakra is an energy that connects two worlds” aka the living world and the afterlife. SINCE WHEN how did this work before chakra???
After being sufficiently damaged Kaguya loses control of the Juubi, which starts splitting into the bijuu. Might be because of contact with the bijuu chakra in Naruto. 
Kakashi’s Susanoo is a vivid blue. I always forget that they come in different colors, since Sasuke and Madara are both purple. 
Kekkei Moura... 
Good Bye Miss Kaguya
Ditching her in a moon in her own dimension is better than before, I guess. 
lol @ Kakashi going “you’re a great team now” when Sasuke hasn’t once acknowledged him or Sakura this entire time. 
474: 
Madara just... got spat out. What is this spitting out fixation of Kishimoto’s
I don’t understand why Hagoromo invoked the ghosts of the other Kage. Half of them weren’t even in the war and have nothing to do with Team 7 or Kaguya. Why was this the qualification? Using the jinchuuriki would have made more sense. 
I still don’t understand how B survived all this. 
Hagoromo is going to talk to Obito in the afterlife. I really... don’t like this afterlife thing...
Everyone watching each other’s heartfelt goodbyes is intensely awkward. 
Taken without fillers and excessive flashbacks, the Kaguya battle is rather short and unimpressive.
