Tamatori Event Highlights in Onmyoji RPG

Seimei said "Yesterday, he received a letter from Tadayuki, saying that Tadayaki was tracing back his clan ancestors and that he was trapped in a fantasy world, and he was afraid that he would not be able to escape for a while.

Does this have anything to do with the crow caller since the Kamo Clan founder and ancestor being a crow god in the orginal myths? Are they trying to villainze Yatagarasu? Also, the writers keep forgetting that Yasunori exists.

Michitsuna said that the inviter to the night banquet turned out to be a big pirate who had become famous recently and that the waters of the Fujiwara Family have received frequent visits from her.

Does Tamatori have any familial connections to the Fujiwara Clan in this game. Is she their ancestress and they are keeping it a secret because they don't want anyone to find out that they have yokai ancestry or is it just going to be a surface level thing. Is there a good backstory why she became a pirate? Did she die like she did in the orginal myth and an explanation would be given why she was resurrected in the game or has she never died in this game? I have low expectations for this game. If she was resurrected did she become a pirate after being resurrect?

Tamatori said that in one of the treasure box there was the severed tail of the legendary great fox yokai, Kuzunoha, but is anyone there supposed to know that Kuzunoha is a fox yokai accept for Seimei (and maybe Kohaku) as Kuzunoha was disguised as a famous human onmyoji in Heian-Kyo. Would that cause everyone to be shock and ask Seimei questions about it? Everyone at Seimei's house may not mind, but Yorimitsu hates yokai, but may eventually come to somewhat accept Seimei. Are the writers even going to let the human populace find out that Seimei is a fox hanyo? Personally, I don't think the current writers are capable of making such a good and compelling story.

Also, it said that Tamatori had no intention of showing Seimei Kuzunoha's tail. She just showed it just because. Shouldn't Seimei be furious and refuse to go along with the game she having them play? Also, what role would Dark Seimei would play in this? What are Kohaku's thoughts on this as a fox yokai? One thing I do know is that the writers treat Kuzunoha very badly.

The first poster of the Hikaru Kimi e Taiga about Murasaki Shikibu & the Fujiwara clan looks gorgeous 💖. Hope that it will turn out great especially since they chose a female protagonist after a long time again and since it features characters that don't have many movie depictions for once.

The Taiga with female protagonists that are my favorite are Kusa Moeru (Hojo Masako), Atsuhime (Atsuhime) and Hana no Ran (Hino Tomiko). Hope that Hikaru will join them as a favorite.

日本の歴史366 Day 56

2月25日 Summary:

At the age of 12, Fujiwara no Shoushi (also known as Empress Shoushi) was forced by her father, Fujiwara no Michinaga to enter Emperor Ichijou's harem. Her father's goal was to marry her into the Imperial Family as a means to expand the power and influence that he could wield--having the Imperial Family as backing makes one substantially more powerful. Due to her father's influence, she quickly rose to the position of a concurrent second Empress (or 中宮, Chuuguu). Both of her sons went on to become Emperors, eventually allowing her to hold both the titles of Empress Dowager and Grand Empress Dowager.

One of Empress Shoushi's court ladies was Murasaki Shikibu, the author of the Tale of Genji. Murasaki is absolutely iconic for using her job to write irl fic--I feel the pressing need to go look up current royal family fic on ao3 to see what I'll come across. Icon...truly ahead of the times because the Tale of Genji is considered a classic text. The Tale of Genji also helped to strengthen Empress Shoushi's base of power since the author was her lady-in-waiting.

imagine if it turns out Yuji was the Toji of the Heian period? How else could you explain the insane physicality but lack of cursed energy if not for heavenly restriction?

#theres that whole thing about toji breaking them from their destiny or whatever when he was born #i dont fully understand it #but the way he's haunting the story #there has to be a parallel to him aside from maki #hell maki could be the red herring #maybe yuji was part of the fujiwara clan and had the same backstory as toji idk #jjk #jujutsu kaisen #itadori yuji #fushiguro toji

Summary:

“I’ll explain that too mago, but for now. Please listen carefully, I’ve been saving this story your whole life. Waiting for the right time to tell it. It’s the beginning of everything.”

The wild rose that is Nobara Kugisaki was merely lying in wait to bloom.

Doing a lot of research for Chapter 2!! Please enjoy my copium lol

#kugisaki nobara #kugisaki nobara backstory #jjk fanfic #jujutsu kaisen #jjk spoilers #my headcanon and copium is that kugisaki is a descendant of the fujiwara clan and this is her grandma telling her about their lore #shoutout to the reddit poster who made that great point about this possibility #best girl kugisaki nobara #ifd2024

Look I may be one of few but I LOVE the Fujiwara clan lore that Gege has been adding recently. With the implications of Yorozu and Uro knowing each other getting me so excited

#Astra writes #Funny story #i have an oc for j.jk #And after weeks of research I decided on their last name being Fujiwara #Then I proceeded to re-read the yuta vs uro fight #Just to find out the Fujiwaras are a canonical clan #LOOK #the amount of ideas that have been brewing since #Its wild #gege putting gasoline to the fire that is my mind #Btw my oc is called Tadaomi Fujiwara

i wish yuyuko was depicted more as a descendant/child of saigyo. it suits her so well atmospherically & aesthetically. i love what zun did with designing her & writing her in perfect cherry blossom. i wish the fanbase didnt lean so heavily on the airheaded schtick.

#post #i should commission some saigyo-poem-themed yuyuko droawings...#or write some yuyuko explorations myself #i miss the era of zun where he worked 10th century japanese history into the world #like are mokou and yuyuko relatives??? maybe!!#as saigyo was born into the fujiwara clan and left it to become a hermit

Yooooo guess which dumbass drank the itchy pukey pear juice and then turned around and fucking sprained their middle toe?

Some people say that I need constant supervision and a bubble wrap blanket or one of those inflatable hamster balls and it's days like the past few where daaaamn, do I agree...

But I want a constant supply of lollipops and Monster Pipeline Punch and Pacific Punch sent to my hamster ball bubble force field.

Also I started thinking about all the different anime/manga I've seen with all the different historical characters from the Bakumatsu and what would happen if they all met and then I scared myself and I had to back away from that thought quickly. Bonus points for adding the kids from the Moeyo Ken anime because of the extra chaos. Extra bonus points for their respective Touken Danshi. And now you see why it's scary.

ALSO omgomgomgomg BSD S4 is- DAMN I missed these guys! And tbh I'm so happy that I was wrong thinking the opener episodes light novel adaptation was going to be Stormbringer, and I say that as someone who REALLY wanted it to be that.

#daz life #daz weirdness #bungo stray dogs #bsd #I can't wait to see it all omg #I didn't realize how much I missed it until S4 hit #and then there's all the Bakumatsu stuff lmao #seriously though I can count like eight different series offhand #that's eight different sets of these guys #nine if you include Touken Ranbu actually #I don't have a thing about the Bakumatsu at all noooo #or the Heian #definitely not interested at all in the Heian period and especially not the Fujiwara clan #catch me when I'm tipsy and I'll give you the funniest history lessons apparently
