I’d like to think that they all planned to be in neutrals for a photoshoot then ritsuka just about had it with Hiiragi because he came in pastel blue (the calico cat wants to stand out) only for him to then give Hiiragi a free pass seeing that he is just wearing both of the bands’ merch for extra promo 😂😂😂 Ritsu is absolutely thinking “Hiiragi don’t ruin the fucking photo” and there is our cat boi being cheeky with a little RAWR 🐯 Shizu’s and Mafuyu’s little smile like “ah yes we’ve had to deal with years of this behaviour”
It’s canon in my head that Take-chan is just relieved that they are all acting natural and not pissing themselves laughing like their first shoot
This is the design of the shirt Hiiragi is wearing from a previous Kizu official art release
These are so cute!!! Forget all my complaints about the ending of the main manga or the time skip in the sequel. Kizu gave us smiling boys and I couldn't be happier!
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITHOUT MY ONCE EVERY 2 MONTH MENTAL BREAKDOWNS NOW!!?? I've been following Given since my second year of highschool I can't move on it's literally a part of my soul!
I'm gonna be spending the next 5 days listening to Fuyu No Hanashi and Yoru Ga Akeru on loop and cry
Ok ok but that ending
FUCK YEAH!!! UENOYAMA MY BOY YOUR TIME HAS COME!!!
God I hope there's an epilogue with a time skip just to see them again please it's crucial to my mental health and stability
this panel from mix_20 is honestly such a good one to finish the chapter with because like, have you ever seen a more perfect summary of their dynamic?
uenoyama: *soul has left his body*
mafuyu: what, did i do something weird? why are you mad
hiiragi: MAFUYU WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
shizusumi: *holding hiiragi back for the nth time* there there, calm down...

I want to talk about my most favourite anime character of all times, and that is - Ugetsu Murata from Given.
- Ugetsu is a violin genius, and from young age, he was reserved kid, like he talked with everyone, but he never opened up with anyone, and No one really tried to get close to him, either.
- For the first time, he fell in love with Kaji Akihiko, who could see sadness behind his perfect face and, Ugetsu gave his all to him. He said that he loved Kaji to death.
- Kaji, on other hand was really in love with Ugetsu but at the same time, he was concious of the fact how amazing violinist, Ugetsu is! , and this jealousy made him, leave violin (Kaji himself liked to play violin) and opt for drums.
- Ugetsu knew that, and he also knew how his talent is hurting Kaji and his aspirations, and then he decided to leave the relationship for Kaji's sake, but It was difficult. Afterall Ugetsu is a human who loved someone with all his heart.
- in the movie, when Kaji and Ugetsu have their night together, the very next day, Ugetu knew he is again going to trap, kaji into a relationship that will eventually hurt Kaji, but the path he chose was wrong one, he slept with someone other and texted Kaji not to come home that day, but at the same time, Kaji was also spending his time with someone else, so who to blame?
- people seems to like Kaji, totally forgetting the fact that he forced himself on Haruki, knowing that Haruki likes him.
- At the end, he let him go, and opted for his music. His music is only thing that was important to him, that never left him. Being in introvert, he fused his feelings with strings of violin.
Ugetsu wanted to understood by someone, and someone who will be proud to be with him, and not be jealous of his talent. He is tragic beauty.
