#MASH?! LANGA?!

[epickiya722]

I heard this one speak...

And my mind went "I know that voice... wait!!"

#MASH?! LANGA?! #i knew i knew that voice!! #just kiya's thoughts #wind breaker #kota sako #sako kota #sk8 the infinity #sk8 #langa hasegawa #hasegawa langa #mashle #mashle magic and muscles #mash burnedead

[cobaltfluff]

he eat cream puff

#sk8 the infinity #art tag #it's your regularly scheduled va joke #i think langa could be good friends with mash #that said i am thoroughly enjoying more chiaki roles #ESPECIALLY when all the characters have a similar vibe

[quehecke]

just seen this and i am jumping up and down screaming in joy

its perfection

MASH VA

MASH KURONA REAL

SOMEBODY PINCH ME I THINK IM DREAMING

#kurona and mash my babies #langa too ig #kurona ranze #blue lock kurona #blue lock #bllk #mashle #mash burnedead #mashle: magic and muscles #ranze kurona

I know nothing about dub voice actors. The only ones I know are matchablossom ones but with Japanese ones... I also don't know anything, but there are times when voices just feel familiar, so then I Google, and then the world simply shatters

that to say, these three have the same va

and I don't know what to do with this information

to be fully honest, I was already dumbfounded just from adachi and mash, but adding langa to the whole mix - too much to handle at this hour

but also, somehow, it makes a lot of sense

#cherry magic #adachi kiyoshi #sk8 the infinity #hasegawa langa #mashle #mash burnedead #also that's a good sign for me to rewatch sk8 now that i can't remember voices already #okay I now know ishikawa kaito #he's everywhere

Cherry Magic / 30-sai made Doutei dato Mahoutsukai ni nareru rashii Episode 1

Overall Score so far: 8/10

Mainly because Kiyoshi Adachi knows he is in a BL, and is very aware of what might happen to him, and the short hand title is fucking hilarious. Cherry Magic. Cherri Maho. Man I love Japanese.

Also GOOD CROWS ABOVE THIS ANIME IS GENRE-SAVVY. It knows exactly what it's doing, and feels like it's going to deliver what it promises. A wholesome lovey dovey little story.

The whole 1st episode almost feels self contained in a way that will definitely let you know if this show is for you or not. Capybara pointed out that this seems to be a common recent trend with anime for their first episodes. We saw it in Dr. Elise, Frieren, and Dungeon Meshi kind of felt that way too.

My first impression that might not make sense to some people is that this is a toned down Doppo and Hifumi from Matenrou/Hypnosis Mic.

Also, WE'VE GOT TWO POWERHOUSE VOICE ACTORS HERE!!

Adachi is being voiced by the lovely deadpan of Kobayashi, Chiaki - His other roles I know being Langa from SK∞, Gabimaru!! (my beloved) from Jigokuraku/Hell's Paradise, and Mash!! from MASHLE, also this season! I haven't seen Vinland Saga yet, but other might know him as Askeladd! Kobayashi-san has a very particular voice that doesn't fluctuate much, but he knows when to show emotion that gives a good impact. Quote from Capybara - "They picked this guy for his dead pan, but can he emote? Oh, he's Langa from sk8, oh yeah, he can emote."

Kurosawa is voiced by Suzuki, Ryouta a super memorable voice! - Ryusui from Dr. Stone, Yuu ishikami from Kaguya Sama, BISCO!!! FROM SABIKU BISCO!!! That is some RANGE right there! Loud and Prideful, Quiet and Dark, and then a Screamy Boy. This is a younger VA who has had some great starting roles, and has already become a memorable and impactful voice, making this a very good match up!

Anyways, nerding out about voice actors aside, Episode 1 spoilers below!

At first it seems like we're going to get the standard tropes that come with the BL(Boys Love)/Yaoi Genre...

Adachi is ON HIS GUARD and KNOWS THE TROPES.

But the show immediately spins those very same tropes on their head! It's great!! It's been so long since I watched a BL, and despite knowing that the genre in manga form has mostly moved away from a lot of the dub-con tropes (unless you're looking for it of course), it's lovely to see something that actually feels like a proper and semi-realistic romance.

Kurosawa seems like a super sweet dude who's ALSO aware this is a BL, but also that gay guys don't just exist everywhere and that the chance of his crush returning his affection is low.

But. There is no way Adachi is straight. He's absolutely either bi, and/or gay + somewhere on the ace-spec (demi?) depending on how things play out from here.

I bet Adachi stumbled into reading a BL manga (or two or three or) at some point in his younger years, and it had more of an impact on his psyche than he remembers, lmao.

His fascination with knowing Kurosawa has a crush on him is adorable, and he's absolute confusion at stumbling across the other man's fantasies is hilarious.

The tension between them is beautiful when Adachi is pretending to sleep, and we all KNOW Kurosawa is thinking of his sleeping face and then playing it off as just grabbing his phone. I repeat, there is NO WAY Adachi is straight, lmao.

In response to this rhetorical question, No and Yes. If Adachi was the woman, saying yes would imply that she was aware she was being asked to have sex and giving consent (at least by Japanese standards I ASSUME? I've never been in this situation). And if Kurosawa was the woman, that is one very forward and direct lady who is absolutely Down To Fuck (Again, by Japanese standards afaik).

God, then they go out for yakiniku/Korean bbq the next day, and he finds himself enjoying the other man's company and wishing they could be friends, only to brush up again him and remember this man is in love with him. Adachi, you precious child, this is why you're so lovable. The immediate regret for taking the other man's feelings so lightly and not knowing what to do as he runs away is heart wrenching and OF COURSE THE EPISODE ENDS THERE.

It's a running theme that Adachi is worried about other's opinions and doesn't know how to rely on other, which tends to be a negative, but in this case, he's so conscientious of hurting Kurosawa by taking his feelings lightly. Even though he ends up hurting him anyways, I see this as a favorable take on the typical people-pleaser type character.

I'm not really looking to the implied trope of "Best Friend who also has a crush and claims to know him best" in the next episode, but since everything else has been subverted, I'm hoping that will get subverted too? Especially knowing that Best Friend-kun is in the secondary pairing from the PVs.

I WANT TO BINGE THIS. THIS IS GOING TO BE SO DAMN CUTE.

The HypMic Reference:

Adachi is a Toned Down Doppo, who is an over worked businessman at a black company who might as well be Canadian for how often he says sorry, but goes into Berserker mode and absolutely destroys his opponents when pushed too far or his partners are hurt, and is Hifumi's emotion support human.

Kurosawa is a super Toned Down Hifumi, who is the #1 host at a club in Shinjuku and has a split personality of the perfect princely boyfriend, and a charai/flashy and "it'll be fine lol" personality, who is basically a housewife for Doppo and is also Doppo's emotional support human.

There aren't THAT many connection points between the two, but still, I like the comparison, aha.

Anyways, My Hopes For This Anime, having NOT read the manga and not wanting spoilers, are that these two get together by half way through the season and then we get the "newly dating" stages of their relationship, and various mishaps that only serve to strengthen their relationship. They seem like a very good couple and it would be a waste for them to not get together.

If they don't get together until episode 12, I will be so blue balled that I will have to drop it if only to get the circulation in my brain back.

Hype for more!

I don't know if you still do Fanfic mashups...but 51 and 25 for Langa/Reki of SK8 the Infinity? Please? And thank you!

25. Fairy Tale AU & 51. Accidentally Married 

First thing's first, Adam is obviously the witch who cast the spell. What spell? Well.

Langa is the crown prince of the Snowboarding Kingdom. After the recent death of the king, the Queen has taken over, but when Langa comes of age, he'll have to take the crown. The king of the Skateboarding Kingdom, Ainosuke, wants Langa's hand in marriage, and Langa's mom basically said over her dead body.

Well, Ainosuke's secret identity, Adam the Witch, cast a spell on Langa, sending him into a deep sleep. The Queen declared she would reward anyone who could wake him. Adam then decides to dress himself as a prince and "save" Langa himself. (Adam is a man of many disguises. He's also a man of many words and likes to monologue his dastardly plans.)

Reiki, a stable boy, overhears this evil plot and decides to go save Langa before Adam can finish this evil plot. So he grabs his family's trusty steed (read: skateboard) and heads off to save the day. The problem is, he's never been outside the capital, and he's dirt poor, which makes this a much more difficult trip than originally planned.

Luckily, Reiki meets Puss in Boot's cousin, Miya on Skateboard. The catboy agrees to go on this journey with Reiki and help out under one condition: Reiki becomes Miya's slave afterwards (read: Miya just wants to be a pampered indoor cat). Reiki agrees and they head off. Miya is super useful and steals anything they need along the way. He even teaches Reiki a few skateboard tricks.

They manage to get to Langa barely ahead of Adam's retinue. Reiki panics because he has no idea how to wake prince Langa now that he's here. Miya says that the solution is always a kiss, duh. Reiki blushes a lot because prince Langa is hot, okay, but he goes for it. The kiss works! But a rainbow cloud explodes directly after and all of them are left hacking glitter from their lungs.

What nobody was prepared for was that the spell also had a binding contract at the end of it. Langa and Reiki are now magically married, the two matching rings on their fingers impossible to remove. Adam shows up just in time to see this and throws a fit. His dedicated retainer Tadashi says this is what Adam deservers and tosses the king-in-disguise over his shoulder and skateboards away.

Reiki apologizes profusely to the Queen, swearing he didn't know, and she reassures him. She thanks him tremendously for doing his best to thwart Adam's plot and says they'll have to make the best of it. She promptly sends the boys off on a date because an excitable himbo is exactly what her son needs right now.

Thankfully, it works out. Reiki and Langa are head over heels for each other in no time. Miya is the most pampered catboy in two kingdoms. A skateboarding park is built in honor of the crown prince's new husband. Reiki struggles at snowboarding and Langa struggles at skateboarding, but they're valuable lessons for working hard in the future once they're ruling the kingdom.

Truly, a happily ever after.

Day 8

Surprised I'm this far in and haven't quit yet. Anyways, new week, new body part. I was having trouble on deciding what to do, so I just said screw it and did eye week.

But that wasn't before binging the first four episodes of mashle because of a reco from discord peeps and a singer named Will Stetson. His covers are so good, I highly recommend them. His voice is so flexible and stuff. The song I'm talking about is his english cover of "bling boom boom born" I think.

Anyways, about Mashle. Mash is such a chill dude and so easy to root for. Love him. Also I might ship two pairings so far, gramps and the one dude who threatened gramps and Mash in the beginning. Can't remember his name, but their vibe is such "Our child has gone to school and we're so worried, will he be alright??"

Second ship is between blue hair and red hair. Haven't met red hair yet, so it's not like a complete ship. I mainly just ship them cause they remind me of Reki and Langa... Renga is such a good ship on it's own because there's so much canon material and I'm like 90% sure the english va's of those two ship their characters together. I'm 100% sure that the english va's of matcha blossom ship their characters together and I love it. If you guys don't know, currently talking about an anime called Sk8. Highly recommend, god is it good.

Mk here's what I have for the day, I know it's not much but whatever. Hopefully I'll get better as the week goes on. Oh, and the curse of the other eye is with me like it is all artists.

So yesterday when I was sitting in my room with candle I was like "Damn I should buy more cherry candles" and that was the moment I thought about sk8 characters liking candles, so here's my list

Cherry- more delicate like in my opinion (for example Woodwick Woven Comforts, it's mash up with flowers, trees, fruits and a lot !ore but it's really good [I love it])

Langa- one word, TREES, I think he would love them, especially the conifers ones that remides him of Canada's mountains

Miya- tea smell, I know it may seem more like Cherry but they are quite strong so I would say that Miya enjoys them

Reki and Joe are at the same place cause I think they would be like "I don't think I would buy a lot of candles myself but if I got it from someone I would quite enjoy it" and that's he moment when I don't really know what kind of candles they would like so it your time to shine :]

Oh gosh... I don't really use candles,,, so I have literally no idea. For Reki, I could maybe see something fruity?? Perhaps?? Like just something with a lot of fragrance. He doesn't use multiple at once, but that's because his nose would explode. And Joe would totally use the over-the-top seasonal candles. And yes, he does it only because Cherry hates them with a burning passion.
