6/5: happy pleasant boy day!

Originally 爽やかな少年 sawayakana shounen. Some relevant examples of sawayaka+person from ALC:

爽やかな若者 sawayakana wakamono—"a fine young man" (or young woman);

爽やかな好青年 sawayakana kouseinen—"a clean-cut and likable young man";

弁舌が爽やかな人 benzetsu ga sawayakana hito—"an eloquent speaker" (or, "a voluble speaker"!);

弁舌爽やかに話す benzetsu sawayaka ni hanasu—"to speak eloquently; to give an eloquent speech".

Sounds about right. More commonly sawayaka means "refreshing or pleasant", but more as in the environment, or a drink—a refreshing breeze, a pleasant morning, a cool drink etc.

one of your posts was about kirby getting infantilized in fandom; i also agree that happens way too much, but how do you handle people pointing at the anime and saying "he's literally a baby"?

i handle them by pointing at the games which are in a completely different canon. you don’t see escargoon, tiff, tuff, NME salesman, etc. in the main games whatsoever. you don’t see king dedede ordering monsters from nightmare to defeat kirby. you don’t see meta knight straight up teaching kirby things like how to sword fight or drive a warp star (heck, he knew how to do both those things before he even faced off meta knight for the first time). you don’t see the warp star being something tied to Kirby’s vitality. There is no GSA.

The anime’s universe is unique to the game.

Kirby never even said “poyo” until after the anime was released, and even then he doesn’t even say it in every game after that, just a few like Mass Attack, a spin off game. AND he doesn’t even just say “poyo” in the anime he can talk and speaks words albeit only a few times and sparingly which makes sense considering he is a baby in the anime.

For the game universe his age was never stated, though he is called young, introduced as 「若者」 (wakamono) meaning young person but never is he called a baby or infant. Overall his game age is up for interpretation with the only thing going off of is that he’s “young” which has a wide range.

what annoys me especially about people bringing anime canon into game canon is that people don’t even treat all of the games canon with the excuse that kirby is “out of character” like in kirby’s avalanche where kirby actually speaks in full sentences and is very sassy even somewhat rude. Like somehow they find a game like avalanche less canon than an anime with characters never seen before in the games. literally just say you pick and choose what you like to go off of but don’t try to pass it off as factual canon. because there hardly is one

Kirby “lore” is vague. it mainly leaves pieces around to inspire the player’s creativity to piece it together in their own way because there simply isn’t enough to go off of for a concrete canon.

I love seeing other people’s interpretations but what peeves me is when people ignore the pieces given and/or grabs pieces from the anime’s canon and it wouldn’t be as nearly annoying to me if it wasn’t the most common interpretation

but im not here to change people’s minds or tell them what to do. i’m here to put my interpretation out, regardless of how different because i make content that caters to me and really yourself is the only one who can make the exact content you want to see so who am i to complain? i just wish i saw more variety when it comes to kirby

#ask #anon #don’t let anyone tell you kirby’s canonically a baby in game canon cus that’s plain wrong #i don’t even hate the anime. there’s plenty of interesting ideas there but it just doesn’t mix with the game #unless you bring in aus but that’s an alternate universe. different story

I think I'm getting a little bit back into Dragon Ball. Though I'm still on my WFRR/Tooniverse kick... I'm certain you guys know what happens when interests collide XD

WFRR DRAGON BALL AU

I know this is silly, but what does it matter if it's fun? ^^ also, I'm gonna give everyone Dragon Ball-esque names. I'm not sure how well I'll do though, so if anybody has any suggestions, I'd be happy to hear!

Gume (Eddie Valient): A retired world martial arts tournament champion. After the death of his brother, Slooth, he lost his passion and resorted to alcohol to drown his sorrows, and refuses to partake in the tournament anymore, but has taken on a private investigator job. Even so, he is still a very skilled fighter, and pretty powerful for a human. A bit rusty around the edges, but he's still a formidable opponent.

Eddie's name is the first half of gumshoe. A gumshoe being another name for a private detective. Teddy's name is a misspelling of sleuth, another name for a private investigator.

Shoa (Delores): Shoa had also competed in the tournaments herself- in fact, that was how she met the brothers. However, nowadays, she's focused on trying to support Gume, and can be found in the city's bar as simultaneously the bartender and the security guard. She'll still help out Gume with some of his jobs, and can very easily hold her own in a fight. It's no wonder Gume and Shoa make an unbreakable pair.

Delores' name is a play on the second half of Gumshoe. Her and Eddia complete each other in more than one way ^^

Usagi (Roger Rabbit): A spry and cheerful acrobat who first introduced Gume to chi. He was looking to train under Gume, and his persistence managed to break through the gruff man. Usagi was actually quite surprised that Gume hadn't already harnessed his chi, but was more than happy to teach him everything his wife taught him. As such, the two slowly but surely developed a close bond and alliance.

Usagi is the Japanese word for Rabbit (according to Google Translate. I apologize for any mistranslation)

Uta the Sairen (Jessica Rabbit): Uta didn't originate from Earth. She came from a far-off planet after her home was destroyed. Her ship had landed on Usagi's property, and the two have been inseparable ever since. They fell in love sometime while she was teaching Usagi how to harness his chi, and she's taken it upon herself to protect him. Uta wasn't too sure about Gume, especially when he saw her and made some wild accusations about her purpose on Earth and why she chose to marry a human. But after seeing how protective she is of Usagi and her new home, and also having the chance to fight alongside her, Gume has had a change of heart, and would trust her with his life.

Jessica's name is the Japanese word for song, and her species name is Japanese for siren. I'm thinking maybe her planet would have been home to Betty Boop, Holli Would, Red Hot Riding Hood, and other attractive toons. I'm not quite sure why their planet could have been destroyed, but I'm certain that will become a plot point in this AU.

Beebee the Monoian (Baby Herman): Another alien that came to Earth, though only because he was searching for glory. Despite his jolly sounding name and youthful appearance, Beebee is a rather temperamental and nasty old man that uses his looks to sway humans and become a famous actor among them. He even convinced Usagi for a time that he was a friend- though Uta saw through his tricks and doesn't buy his act one bit. Even so, he had grown a soft spot for Earth and Usagi, and will help out when needed.

Herman's name is just a fun misspronounciation of baby. And his species' name is the second half of Wakamono, which is Japanese for youth.

Axit, Android 07 (Benny the Cab): A robotic creation of the infamous doctor. Axit was an experiment gone wrong; meant to be a war weapon, it seemed that somehow emotions had been programmed into him. Or at least the ability to process them. It wasn't too long before Axit rebelled against his creator, and set on his own journey. He met Usagi, and the two have become great friends. Despite being a machine, Axit has grown rather friendly and boisterous, and serves the city's public transport system. Though, being a weapon of war, you don't want to get on this androids bad side.

Benny's name is a jumbled spelling of Taxi. And his android number is for 1907, when meters were first implemented in taxis.

Doctor Domo (Judge Doom): A mysterious and cruel scientist who seems to make it his life's work to take over the city. Not much is known about him, not even his colleagues- now employees after he took ownership of the company Clover Tech- know much about him... There are rumors, however, that Dume is not as human as he claims to be...

Doom's name is just a fun jumbled spelling of his own name.

Pin-Kuu, Android 47 (Smartass Weasel): One of Domo's most successful creations just so happens to not be entirely machine. He, along with his whole team, were taken as humans and experimented on. None of them remember their human lives, but have become very powerful due to their mechanical enhancements. Since he is the most 'obedient' as well as ruthless and intelligent, Android, Domo has placed him in charge of the others. Though Pin-Kuu, along with his squad, aren't too happy about following the doctors orders... And now, with all the power at their fingertips, they'll be able to take matters into their own hands soon enough.

Smartass' name is a slight misspelling of the Japanese word for pink. And his Android number is for 1947, when the events of Who Framed Roger Rabbit take place. Also, notably, the same death year for Al Capone. (Also, for those who don't know, yes, they should be called cyborgs, but for some reason, in Dragon Ball, Android 18 and 17 were always called androids. As such, the weasels will carry this tradition in this AU)

Dori, Android 20 (Greasy Weasel): Dubbed as the second in command by Pin-Kuu, Dori is a rather selfish and wicked minded android. He was surprised when, after many failed experiments, Pin-Kuu not only survived but also rose the ranks in Domo's little army, and it wasn't too long before the two became 'allies' (or rather friends, as they would call each other after being given the freedom to live as humans again). Dori also makes it clear to anybody- especially pretty women like Uta- that just because he's part machine doesn't mean that he's lost his touch.

Greasy's name is the shortened japanese word for green, midori, and his Android number is for 1920, when the alcohol prohibition ended.

Ao, Android 14 (Wheezy Weasel): The second eldest living android, Ao doesn't look all that threatening, especially since he's not so obvious with his unnatural powers as the rest of his team are. But make no mistake, Ao is just as ready to break free of the lab as much as anyone. Though he also seems to be the only one really concerned about the bombs Domo planted in their chests as a precaution. If it weren't for Ao's sage advice of laying low for now, the others probably would have gotten themselves blown up. He's proven to be an irreplaceable member of team Android in many ways.

Wheezy's android name is Japanese for blue, and his Android number is a reference to cigarettes costing between 14 to 20 cents in the 1930's.

Kiiro, Android 11 (Psycho Weasel): One of the oldest androids, next to Axit, Kiiro has seen it all. Even as a human, he was wild and unstable, pushing Domo's limits with his expertise and patience, and even prompting the doctor to build a special suit for Kiiro; one that, with a push of a button, will restrain him if needed. The agonizing experiments as well as his imprisonment have driven Kiiro to madness, and he looks forward to the day he can rip the doctor in half for everything.

Psycho's name is Japanese for yellow, and his Android number is in reference to the first public asylum being opened in 1811.

Akka, Android 48 (Stupid Weasel): Even with all of his power, Akka is... Not the sharpest tool in the shed. But somehow, he still retained his big heart despite all the experiments. He will follow his brother and friends to the ends of the Earth, and had unfortunately only humbly followed what they did (though it didn't really help that it was drilled into his brain by Domo that he was only a tool for destruction). When they had a chance to live freely again, however, it was Akka who came to a good, normal life easiest, and the first to befriend Usagi and Gume despite their part in his and his team's defeat.

Stupid's name is a slight misspelling of the Japanese word for red, and his Android number is meant to be the one right after Smartass' as they are brothers.

Bonus! My OC's

Hanni (Poppy): As Usagi's cousin, Gume expected the woman to be as goofy and energetic as he was. He never would have expected a down to earth farmer to be related to Usagi and Uta. Hanni chose to live outside the city after some incident she doesn't like to talk about, and is much happier working on her rhubarb farm. At first, she was hesitant to learn how to fight and how to use her chi. However, when the Earth and her loved ones barely survived a massive threat, Hanni sought out Uta and Shoa to train under them, not wanting to just stand on the sidelines the next time help was needed. Even if she isn't the strongest human, her patience and kind heart shine through, especially when it came to a certain group of androids.

Poppy's name is meant to be a misspelling of the Japanese word for honey (I would have used flower or poppy, but I preferred how honey sounded).

Mura, Android 62 (Shiny Weasel): One of the last androids that Domo created. He put all of his perfected experience into Mura, making her a formidable foe in battle... Though he never found a way to reprogram her attitude and fierce independence, and that was part of his downfall. Being in the same boat as the others, Mura became close with all of them, especially Dori. When Hanni saved them and gave them a chance to live life as humans again, it was actually Mura that softened up to her first.

Shiny's name is the first half of the Japanese word for purple, murasaki. And her android number is a reference to when moonshine was illegalized in 1862.

Urufī (Moony Wolf): Originally, he was a brute of a martial artist. Snarling and pushing others around and seemingly holding onto some kind of anger in his heart. It wasn't until Gume humbled him in battle, and Hanni stood up to him on her cousins behalf, did Urufī really look inside himself and change his ways. After he became calm and caring, he and Hanni actually fell in love and lived together on her farm for some time. However, the two had decided it was best to remain friends for some unknown reason, and Urufī moved back into the city. Now working as a butcher, he and Hanni still cross paths at the market, and get along quite well. And he will always come to fight when his new friends are in danger.

Moony's name is the Japanese pronunciation/word for wolfy (I hope I spelled it right. Please correct me if I didn't.)

Fokushī (Henry Foxworth): A sly and conniving con artist, Fokushī plays with peoples hearts and trust like his life depends on it. It does become very helpful slipping away from enemies, but he's not a very strong man to begin with. And he knows it. When he met Hanni and used her kindness to get what he wanted from her before leaving, he had no idea that he would become the target of her new friends- nor would exoect a meek little thing like her to become so strong.

Henry's name is the Japanese pronunciation/word for foxy

Banī (Ben Cottontail): A city boy who is actually weaker than Fokushī, Banī seems to only focus on his life rather than the whole world around him, especially after he and Hanni split up and she left the city. Being one of the many humans killed and brought back to life, however, really scared him. He has no idea how it happened or what to do with this information, but he's become much more defensive. Even if anyone on this list could fold him like a lawn chair.

Ben's name is the Japanese pronunciation/word for bunny

Rati (Terry Ratt T.): One of the few empathetic scientists thar had worked at Clover Tech. He knew that everything Domo was doing was wrong, but was powerless to stop him. When the androids were still enemies, it was actually Rati who told everyone about the bomb and gave them the device to activate it, believing this to be more of a mercy kill for the androids- though was pleasently surprised to see Hanni wanted to give them a second chance. It took a long time for them to trust him, though once Rati proved he wanted nothing to do with Domo's experiments, he's now a trusted 'repairman' for the androids, including Axit. And has even become a close friend to Mura and Ao in particular.

Terry's name is the Japanese pronunciation/word for ratty.

This AU definitely needs some polishing if I'm gonna do more with this, but I hope you guys have fun reading this! ^^

May Akir Toriyama rest in peace. He left behind an unforgettable legacy.

An analysis of Trein’s valentine messages.

Text beneath the cut contains content from paid merchandise that I own, coupled with a hefty helping of personal musings and theoretical rambling.

If neither of these pique your interest, dear visitors, do feel free to scroll right on past.

(Please do not leave comments or privately message me requesting links to or images of others’ thank you letters (especially the students’) from this year or last. I previously shared Trein’s from last year not too long ago and am expecting the staff’s notes from this year within a week or two--make no mistake: I have every intention of sharing those when they arrive.)

[Mozus Trein’s 2021 Message]

Dear student, You have sent a present...to me? I am not especially fond of people stepping beyond their station. Students should focus their attention on other students, and behave accordingly. ...Having said that, I do appreciate the gesture. If there’s anything you don’t understand from my lectures, you are welcome to ask me. Mozus Trein

Observations/Notes

Deliberate thought and careful wording

Clear professionalism and adherence to hierarchy and rules

An expression of gratitude

Willingness to repay the gesture in kind

[Mozus Trein’s 2022 Message]

Dear juvenile--- First, I should thank you for the gift. However, if you want to ensure your teachers view you charitably and grade your tests favorably, I’d advise being a good student and showing up to class punctually rather than giving gifts. But perhaps a thank-you note isn’t the place for a lecture. The sentiment is appreciated, at the very least. Mozus Trein

Observations/Notes

Use of the term “juvenile”

Reluctant acknowledgement of sentiments

Obligation to see that proper etiquette is followed

Gentle reprimanding in the form of advice

Notable changes in language and tone between messages The very first--and frankly, most startling--difference between these two messages is Professor Trein’s method of addressing the reader (presumably “Yuu” or the prefect). His informal “student” has been abandoned in favor of a curious and irregular (and almost--almost!--dare I say it... demeaning) alternative: juvenile.

His surprise, while previously clear, is not quite so palpable in this year’s message. There is an absence of ellipses which would indicate that something has occurred that might contradict expectations.

Where he once simply gave an opinion on gift-giving and stations and propriety, he eagerly divulges with criticism and instruction.

What he is not saying, and why it is just as, if not more, important than what is written (or, explanations and conclusions) I will start by conceding that this year’s message came as an utter shock to me. His word choice and pacing lends itself to a portrait of one who has grown frustrated--perhaps downright irate--with recent developments and behavior.

At first.

Upon further review of the messages (after some rather... less-than-model, incredibly vocal griping on my part. I was hung up on the word “juvenile” until a friend suggested that perhaps the writers took the wakamono from one of his voice lines literally), a few outstanding details came to my attention. Namely, how the drastic shift in what he deems necessary to speak at length about when faced with responding to a particular gesture (the act of giving gifts, in this case).

There is, without a doubt, present in the second message some of the same reluctance and hesitation that colored his first. What has changed is his willingness to accept that there is an individual who would tread or even cross boundaries in order to show him admiration and good will.

How do we know his reaction is not out of anger? Professor Trein does, in both instances, take pains to communicate that the gifts are not unwelcome, and moreover does well to convey his (somewhat reluctant) appreciation. He’s less displeased with the person than what the act could ultimately suggest (i.e., bribery/exploitation, unsavory intentions, inappropriate affections).

Taken a step further, measured change from reserved and indirect but amenable to insistent and harangued in people is more often than not a means of defending one’s psyche. I personally feel it belies a growing (non-romantic) attachment to or responsibility for the reader (the prefect). This itself may be due to both his paternal instincts as well as a subconscious desire to maintain emotional distance since the death of his late wife in an effort to avoid pain associated with loss of those dear. He therefore chooses to rebuke to remind both himself and the recipient that theirs is a relationship best kept formal.
