expectations vs reality

Autistic Anime Boys Prelims - Propaganda Division - Round 2

Propaganda:

Amuro -

"Being a Newtype is just space autism to me. But also he sucks at falling in line in a structured environment, would rather work with machines than talk to people, and is only allowed as a child soldier because he's the bestest at big robots."

Kyouya -

"what's there to say? you know him. you love him. vote kyoya."

Euini -

"I relate a lot to his social anxiety, especially his performance anxiety that occurs when he's being watched by people, particularly due to his stress at needing to follow the plan/do things the "proper" way in order to not feel like he's a failure. he also stands like a lil autistic kid and i appreciate him so much for that.

(LIGHT SPOILERS) basically, he has a test that he needs to take in order to advance as a witch, and he keeps failing it because he cant perform properly while being watched by other people, even though he knows the "right" spells to use and why he's supposed to use them. on his third attempt of the test, he's prepared a "script" to use so that he can follow it and not worry about failing in the moment (in this case, his script is a hand-written book of the proper spells to use and the order in which he's supposed to use them), but when a part of the exam changes, he's no longer able to follow his script. because he's been taught all his life that there's only one proper way of doing things, his way of thinking is very rigid and he's not able to deviate from his plan without panicking. luckily, one of his fellow examinees (richeh from the autistic anime girls poll 💕) is able to convince him to try and change the way that he does things to something that is more attuned to his personal needs- basically change the way that he casts his spells and which spells to use so that he doesn't need to struggle with doing things in the way that everyone says that he should; the way that he cant seem to manage. but, even before richeh helped him with that though, he was still finding way to modify the "proper" spells a little bit to better suit his weaknesses. he was trying so hard to fit in to the mold that witch society gave him, but it just wasnt right for him and he was making it work however he could."

Aoi -

"He has a very devoted special interest in the idol Takada-chan, which he frequently imagines in fights and other situations… the moment someone (Itadori) expresses equal interest in something he is passionate about, he immediately declares them besties and brothers and creates a whole elaborate shared history for them that doesn’t actually exist. He’s not really interested in connecting with people who don’t share his interests. He’s seen as somewhat strange and eccentric. Though in the present he is respected because of his strength as a sorcerer, as a child he was very isolated."

Floyd -

"Has no emotional regulation skills and will make it everyone's problem. Prone to mood swings and can get angry at the drop of a hat, but can also be so goofy, silly, and lovely. Sways side to side for that good good stim, and loves to squeeze others (with violent intent and affectionate intent). Who doesn't love a good pressure stim? His interest in things can be fleeting, and his motivation to do things can change as quickly as his mood. Spontaneous and feral extraordinaire."

Apollo -

"Not canonically autistic but he has ZERO volume control plus he scripts/repeats stuff (“I’M FINE!!!”), sometimes mimics other people’s speech patterns (like replying “ja” to Klavier), sensitive to loud noises (stayed backstage at a concert cuz it was too loud) and bright lights (complained about the stage lights being too bright at the same concert + screamed when opening the hatch to the bright stage at magic show), and has been really into space since he was a kid, which could definitely be a hyperfixation (not to mention how he read every single one of Phoenix’s old case files back when he admired him). Plus he’s a little TOO normal, to the point where it circles back around to making him the odd one out, which is absolutely what masking feels like for me. Even when he tries to be fun and weird he gets strange looks/made fun of for not being weird in the right way. The list of autism symptoms is just a checklist for him at this point."

Ash -

"he just has those vibes ya know?"

Shou -

"His special interest is math. He uses math terms in regular conversations and calls people yoctograms/zeptograms which earned him monikers such as "math man" and "pi-face". Speaking of Pi, he once shouted 155 consecutive digits of it through a megaphone just because he could. He's so normal."

Sunny -

"Sunny has been told that his face is not expressive. He doesn't talk a lot and he often gets lost into his imagination. He is a great listener and recalls a lot of information being told he has a great memory (he is able to remember a whole speech about flower symbolism that his friend told him) He is compared to a cat."

Yuu -

"He’s like if an emo programmer boy was also completely unhinged and also had a tragic backstory."

With the addition of h2whoa, could we hear your takes on them? Any headcanons you have? Your art is so co cool!!! <3

For the octoling I can see the Jerma looks on her I really don't like them and there's not much info provided so I'm just completly neutral about them both

I had headcanons for corals species before. Corals are a set of living beings (zooids) it's like a lot of people living in the same building, in real life, they can have thousands of them but in splatoon, it can reach up to one living inside, they can be added more later. It is like a large casing where these zooids live and control the body to their liking, they can take on different roles and can be seen through the eye cavities. I have more ideas but we will leave them for another occasion if you are interested. I like to think they had up to 2 living inside, controlling half of their bodies.

Aside from that, and as I mentioned, they aren't really my thing, however please enjoy this tiny art i did of them.

That stalker hat was made for him 😍

I unironically think that Ryan Evans and Chad Danforth from High School Musical are a Lily Evans and James Potter variant respectively

Finally got it

The “shark guy” I wondered about in these panels

Is THIS GUY from chapter 186 and the following chapters, a friend of Can’t Ya See Kun before his fame 😌

Karla: Don't listen to her, Melo. She's trying to trick you. Candy: For the love of God, Karla SHUT UP! i did giggle ngl for context, it's ep 24 and Candy is TRYING to talk with Melody and, in my case, tell her that she never was romantically interested in Nath and just wanted to help him. I like that Candy literally tells her "i'm not going to stop being friends with him just because of you" sincere, clear and honestly needed. I don't dislike Melody as a character, because I feel like it's pretty realistic that a teen is insecure and gets jealous very easily if their crush just happens to look at someone else, but in her case it's even worse because Nath himself has told her "i don't want to date you". Thing is, as far as I'm aware from the little information that i know about MCLUL, she never really changes her way of thinking about people she's atracted to? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that she liked Rayan and was acting very similar to when she was a teen, even if she was in her fourth year of college so... yeah. I wish her character would kinda develop more past that.

I’m watching despair arc!! I am very normal about it so far YUP

ew he's in nyc for some boring luxury brand's launch

No but seriously why do you have to pay $75 for a math class it makes no sense too me

Cuz this is a private white institution who doesn't seem to know where the (on average) 50k tuition costs per student goes once they get it

musicians in the 70s really thought they were doing something when they let the music stop at the end of the song and added in random chatter from the band
