I just read ur halloween fic!! And it's adorable!! Can I also request a prompt? This is their highschool years btw and its about Hizashi, Shouta, Oboro, Nemuri, Kan and Tensei having a halloween party and also having a contest on who could have the best costumes! And the two winners would be going on a date. This was set up by Nemuri, Oboro, Kan and Tensei cause they know that Shouta and Hizashi had been dancing around each other for a few years and they wanted to help. So yeah XD Hizashi goes as Hatsune Miku! Which as he likes to call it, Present Miku! XD

Happy Halloween! I’m sorry this took *forever*, but it became much longer than anticipated. I loved the whole idea of Present Miku! Hope you enjoy!

Sorry for any grammar or spelling mistakes!

Title: Present Miku

If only he had put a bit more effort into his costume, his friend Kan wouldn’t have felt as personally offended.

“You know, you could have at least bought one from the dollar store instead of wearing your black curtains as a cape,” Kan remarked, crossing his arms.

Shouta shrugged as he sat down next to Oboro, “I wasn’t going to come in a costume, but Nemuri warned me that if I didn’t dress up then she would make a scene on my birthday.”

“What type of scene?” Oboro asked, getting comfortable on the couch as he opened his tenth candy wrapper for the night.

“She didn’t specify, but honestly, I‘d rather not know,” Shouta responded, laying back on the couch as he gestured for Oboro to grab him a candy from the bowl.

Even if it wasn’t his original idea to attend the party, he had to admit, Tensei’s house was pretty impressive. From the moment he stepped onto the front gates, Shouta felt out of place with his cheap cape and DIY fangs. As the gates opened, he could see the massive garden filled with colorful plants and fancy statues. There was even a mini pond with lily pads that ran probably the bluest water Shouta had ever seen.

As he approached the huge double doors, Tensei was already waiting for him with that flashy smile that captivated everyone in class 1-A. With the best grades in the class, and being a descendant from a family of heroes, it was no wonder he became the president of 1-A.

When Shouta first arrived at class 1-A after transferring from General Studies, he hadn’t expected such a warm welcome from the president. The one from General Studies displayed a high ego and God complex that was unbearable most of the time. Tensei let Shouta feel included the second he entered his new classroom, and introduced him to Hizashi and Oboro - his current two best friends.

As Tensei let him inside the house, he was greeted by an ecstatic Nemuri, who was wearing a scantily clad Poison Ivy costume. Already seeing Tensei’s detailed costume of Link from Legend of Zelda and the custom made Poison Ivy outfit from Nemuri made Shouta feel like the odd one out with his poor excuse of a costume. It didn’t help immediately getting berated by Kan for “not putting effort into his Dracula costume”. Though he had to admit; he completely forgot about Kan’s attendance and how...insensitive it would be to come with a poorly done Dracula outfit. Kan’s family, who all have similar quirks that deal with blood, practically venerate the Draculian lore.

Kan was dressed as a chef, claiming the film Ratatouille inspired him. Shouta just rolled his eyes at the explanation and walked towards the living room. His eyes scanned the enormous living room, finding Oboro sitting down on a couch that probably cost more than his parent’s apartment.

He currently sat on that same couch, waiting for the last person to arrive. He sighed as Oboro’s white wings hit him in the face again for the fifth time. His friend opted to dress as an angel, and his explanation was even worse than Kan’s.

“Well, for one, I am an angel. Two, I am really feeling like acting as Cupid today,” Oboro stated, fluttering his eyes as he smiled at Shouta.

Shouta groaned, “are you sure it isn’t an excuse to use your clouds as a substitute for pants?”

Oboro cackled as he handed Shouta a piece of chocolate. They began talking with Kan about the scariest experiences they had with the supposed supernatural. Kan was in the middle of explaining the footsteps he used to hear walking back and forth on his apartment’s hallway at 3 in the morning when the lights were suddenly turned off.

Shouta looked at Oboro in confusion, who stared back at him with the same puzzlement. Rays of lights invaded the room as a certain pop song blared through the speakers. Shouta winced as he covered his ears. The loud music sort of reminded him of someone…

Tensei appeared from the entrance of the living room, looking unfazed. He turned on the microphone he was holding, which let out an unpleasant howling noise. Tensei smiled apologetically, and sighed before using the microphone to speak.

“People of Halloweentown, get ready for the greatest pop star of our generation. Please receive the wondrous, fantastic, fabulous, talented, and amazing: Present Miku!”

Nemuri released a giant confetti cannon, which sprinkled all across the room - blinding Shouta. Of course, Shouta thought, Hizashi would be one for dramatic entrances.

Hizashi suddenly appeared with a microphone on his hands, and began lip-syncing to the song that was still playing from the speakers. Kan leaned towards Shouta and Oboro as he covered his ears.

“What song is this?!” He yelled, yet Shouta could barely hear him as the song blasted through their ears. Oboro laughed hysterically as he moved to the beat of the song.

“It’s a Hatsune Miku song!” Oboro replied, “I think it is called ‘Desert Wolf’!”

“Is it the vocaloid girl he is obsessed about?” Shouta asked. His ears finally adjusted to the loudness that invaded the room. Someone would have believed he was prepared to be bombarded with sound, considering he was friends with Hizashi, the classmate with a Voice quirk.

Oboro smiled widely. “What do you think?” he said, pointing at Hizashi.

A long teal hair tied in pigtails adorned Hizashi’s head, falling to his hips. He wore a grey shirt that traced his waist with a black skirt. Shouta’s eyes lingered towards the bottom, where Hizashi posed with thigh high boots.

Shouta had to admit, Hizashi looked really nice.

It was clear that out of everyone here, especially Shouta, Hizashi put the most effort into his costume. He even had the clothing piece on his arms glow a color similar to turquoise. His tie had his name ‘Present Miku’ engraved on the top, with small pins of Hatsune Miku attached.

Shouta caught Nemuri glancing at him, wiggling her eyebrows. He couldn’t help the slight blush that crept on his face as he looked away.

The song soon ended, and Hizashi bowed, receiving applause from his friends. Oboro and Nemuri clapped loud and sincere, while Shouta and Kan clapped rather unenthusiastically.

Hizashi proceeded to plop down in between Oboro and Shouta, putting his arms around them as he hugged them tightly.

“Happy Halloween you two!” He exclaimed, flashing his brightest grin.

“Took you long enough to arrive,” Shouta grumbled, leaning towards Hizashi’s embrace. He’s used to Hizashi’s shoulder being his personal pillow as he took a quick nap.

He didn’t notice the way Oboro and Kan exchanged knowing looks to one another. They looked back to Nemuri, who nodded once in agreement. She approached the center of the room - heels clanking loudly.

“As you know, there was supposed to be a costume contest,” she reminded, looking at Shouta with those disapproving eyes again.

“The two people who win will get to go on a ‘fake’ date inside that door,” Nemuri explained, pointing her fingers at the closed white double doors at the right side of the room.

“Tensei decorated it so that it may seem as authentic as possible.”

“Authentic to what?” Shouta asked with his eyes closed, still leaning on Hizashi.

“To a date, Shouta,” Nemuri replied with a smug smile, “so let’s start with the first lucky winner!”

“Why do we need to do this now?” Shouta complained, “and also, don’t you think it is weird to make two people go on a forced date?”

“Shut up, Shouta,” Nemuri scolded, being one of the few people that isn’t afraid to argue with him. His intimidating look might work on his classmates, but his upperclassmen friend isn’t threatened by those judging eyes.

“Alright, remember not to vote for yourself!” Nemuri added, “pick a paper and once you write down your pick, just place it on this bowl.”

She gleefully walked towards Tensei and sat next to him, writing down a name with her personal calligraphy pen. Shouta sighed as Hizashi passed him a piece of paper and pen. Might as well get this over with.

He stared at the paper for a moment, remembering the details of everyone’s costumes. He didn’t even know why he was analyzing the costumes when he already knew the answer.

He carefully wrote Hizashi’s name, tracing back the letters as he finished. He rarely got to write his friend’s name, yet it felt so familiar to him.

He placed his paper into the bowl, and leaned back on the couch as he waited for the last person to cast their vote. Once Kan, the last one to vote, slipped his paper into the bowl, Tensei grabbed it and started counting.

As they waited, Hizashi was acting as the DJ for the party, though it mostly consisted of Hatsune Miku songs. Shouta stood up once to grab a piece of pigs in a blanket. As he ate the small party appetizer, he sneaked a peek at Hizashi, who was dancing to the music with Nemuri. Shouta never knew Hizashi was talented at moving his hips. His heartbeat began quickening-

“I have counted the votes!” Tensei announced, beaming in front of his friends.

“The winner is…” he began, and Oboro began tapping the table to mimic drums.

“Present Miku!”

Hizashi squealed, jumping up and down with Nemuri.

“Can’t wait to see who will be my date!”

“I feel like I know who,” Nemuri answered, looking straight at Shouta as she winked. What was she trying to say?

“Let’s not waste time and pick the second winner!” Nemuri sang, already picking up her piece of paper.

“Wow, someone is excited,” Shouta joked in his deadpanned time. Nemuri stuck her tongue out at him before handing him another piece of paper. Shouta sighed again, but this time louder than before.

Hizashi was busy talking to Oboro to notice Shouta next to him. Shouta wasn’t listening to their conversation - too busy thinking on who he would pick. I mean, it isn’t a hard choice. Just pick the second best costume.

Still, there was something impeding him from writing another name. He knew it was just a stupid date that meant nothing other than a way for his friends to tease the ones that got chosen.

Whoever got chosen meant they were going on a “date” with Hizashi. Shouta couldn’t explain why he felt an aching in his heart as he thought about it.

He brushed off his thoughts and wrote Kan as his answer. He didn’t know why he chose Kan, since he was sure everyone would probably pick Tensei. The speedster definitely had the second best costume at the party.

Maybe it was the thought of seeing Hizashi and Tensei having a happy date at the other side of the room that swayed his decision. He knew Hizashi wasn’t interested in Kan, especially after that time Kan told him about the pet tarantula he used to have as a kid.

Tensei, on the other hand, always seemed to make Hizashi smile with his stories about his baby brother Iida.

Shouta could never make Hizashi smile the same way.

Shouta felt someone flick a finger on his forehead, bringing him back to Earth. He turned to see Hizashi smiling fondly at him.

“Shouta, are you done?” Oboro whined, “I want to know the next winner!”

Shouta hadn’t realized he was the last one left to place his vote. He quickly stood up and dropped his paper into the bowl as he ignored everyone’s stares.

“Are you ready to know who your date is?” Nemuri teased Hizashi. The blonde man simply raised his thumb in excitement as he jumped up and down his seat.

Tensei didn’t take long to count votes, considering there were only six of them. Shouta just sat there, wondering how Tensei felt about receiving most of the votes. He knew he wasn’t going to win, so why did he keep feeling this pain on his chest?

“Guys, the final vote has been determined!” Tensei announced, standing up from his chair. Shouta briefly caught Nemuri giggling with Oboro and Kan giving a nod of approval to Tensei.

Now that Shouta thought about it - the four had been acting very suspicious throughout the night.

“And the winner is,” Tensei started, gesturing for Oboro to do his dramatic drums.

“Dracula!”

Everyone in the room cheered, except for two people. Shouta didn’t know how to process what had just happened. He just gazed at Hizashi, who was noticeably pale.

He was probably expecting someone else.

“I can’t believe my two best friends won!” Oboro shouted, “don’t try to have too much fun inside there. Got it?”

Shouta noticed Tensei helping Hizashi towards the other room. He noticed the loud hero unusually quiet - blindly following the blue-haired man. His vision was obstructed by Nemuri standing in front of him with a deceiving smile on her lips.

“Are you ready, big boy?”

“Nemuri, I don’t know what is going on but this was definitely a set-up,” Shouta blurted, “and I don’t like it one bit.”

“Sure you don’t, grumpy cat,” she replied, “c’mon, your date is waiting.”

Before he knew it, Nemuri shoved him inside a dining room. The table only contained two chairs and was decorated with a white tablecloth and a rose in the middle. The plates already had a small meal, which included a portion of lobster.

Hizashi was sitting down, looking back at Shouta with an apologetic smile.

“I’m sorry they put you through this,” Hizashi said, “I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable.”

“It’s fine,” Shouta answered a little too quickly. He was still shocked over the obvious setup from his friends. Why would they want him and Hizashi to go on a date?

Did they realize his feelings for Hizashi? Was this a cruel plan to get his feelings rejected by his crush?

He ignored his thoughts and sat down on the empty chair. The two stayed quiet for a long moment, nervous to even stare at each other.

Shouta broke the silence, “I don’t know why they chose me. I had the worst costume out of all of us.”

“I think you look cute!” Hizashi blurted out, blushing deeply as he realized what he said. Shouta’s cheeks also turned into that dreaded crimson color.

“Shouta…” Hizashi began, hesitance in his voice. The ravenette focused back on Hizashi, trying his best to compose his pumping heartbeat.

“I guess I feel a bit more confident in this outfit, but I just wanted to say…” Hizashi continued, rubbing the back of his neck.

“Hizashi just say it,” Shouta ordered, eyes fixated on Hizashi.

“I like you, Shouta!” Hizashi exclaimed, covering his mouth with both hands after he finished.

Shouta’s eyes widened at the revelation. His mouth dropped open in shock and the room grew dead silent. Both lay eyes on one another; fear of uncertainty emanating from both of them. Shouta lowered his arms, trembling as he grasped for his utensil.

“I- I like you too, Hizashi,” Shouta confessed, staring down at his plate.

“You- you do?” Hizashi cautiously asked, thinking he heard wrong. The silent teenager liked the loud one? Oh, the irony that is love.

Shouta nodded slowly, playing with his fork. He was surprised when Hizashi began to giggle loudly.

“I think I should take you on a real date!” Hizashi proclaimed with excitement. Shouta chuckled lightly, still a bit timid over the whole ordeal.

Shouta was never one to celebrate Halloween, but this year’s would definitely be unforgettable. He was celebrating it with his closest friends. His only friends.

But best of all, he was spending it with Present Miku - the best pop star in the world.

“So what do you say?” Hizashi asked eagerly, awaiting Shouta’s answer.

Shouta just beamed at Hizashi - showing off his DIY fangs.

“I think I’ll like that.”

Some people say that the space you work in reflects who you are. I have to say I fully agree with that.

I spent a good while reorganizing my desk. I have more friends that needed a home. And yes, every bunny I own has a name and a reason for that name. Most people can’t believe I remember them all, but I do.

Starting at the leftmost point of my desk (top picture)... there’s Lucia (holding my glasses case, named Murasaki) and Luna, who is holding Fuyu. Those two are the Build a Bear bunnies I got for my birthday, which is why they are named after the heroines of Lunar. Every year since I turned 16, there has always been a Lunar SOMETHING involved. That’s how much that game means to me. Behind Luna, but in front of Bunbank (yes my piggy bank is a bunny), is Alexio, my Sylveon. The little gray one is Nosey, peeking over my name block. That name block is also very important to me because my dad made it when my mom was pregnant with me. It was kept above my crib after I was born. I’ve had it my entire life. It symbolizes to me just how sturdy the love for my dad is. Right next to Nosey is a white little one, named Yuki. Japanese for snow. There is my Alice in Wonderland White Rabbit back there (his apron is just too cute but it doesn’t show here). Also, there is a chibi Mulan there. My favorite Disney Princess!! I got to meet her voice actress this summer~~ Oh, and there’s my Princess Zelda figure and amiibos, too. I love my Princess Zelda so much. I can’t WAIT until the new Smash one comes out!! That’s my favorite costume for her in the whole series~~ And then there’s my laptop. I have bunny headphones!! The left side is named Treble, the right side is named Bass. Because I’m a music nut XD My background is Lunar 2, because OF COURSE IT IS! <3

Soooo on the other side of my desk is another big set of bunnies. Here you can meet Cubey (the Minecraft bunny), Carrette (who I named this before I named my fursona’s squadron - a combination of Collete from Tales of Symphonia and Carrot!), Coffee with his checkered ribbon, Caramel is hiding back there, Mugu (the Final Fantasy Mysidian Rabbit - named after what he says in FF6 when he shows up), Fudge (who actually smells like chocolate!), Cloud (not the amiibo, but a big white bunny with blue trim), the twins Palom and Porom, Lopper (hiding behind Toriel and holding Palom). And then there are other plushies in here, too. Chocobo, Slime, and Yarn Yoshi are sitting on the laps of the twins. Then there’s some figures in there, too. Peppy Hare, Laguna Loire, Kratos Aurion, Cloud Strife, and three Links. Smash Toon Link, 30th Anniversary Wind Waker Link, and 8bit Link. <3 That 8bit Link is probably my favorite thing on my entire desk, though. Last year I went to go see my dad, and one of the things I was able to give him was 8bit Link. Y’see, our favorite thing when I was a kid was The Legend of Zelda. I kept our original golden cart alongside my name block that he made for me my entire life. I gave him that cart - old as I am, with the 8bit Link figure - as a set. And I told him that letting it go would have been like giving up on our relationship despite being apart for 10 years. I couldn’t, I wouldn’t. Ever. He teared up as he accepted them. And I told him that he didn’t have to ever worry about his inner demons (my dad has a list of mental diagnoses longer than I am tall - same as me, but some are much more severe for him) because Link will take care of him. So. Yeah... I also have the entire set of Legendary Edition manga for the Legend of Zelda series, and I’m collecting Twilight Princess in its current run. Right there with those are my Star vs The Forces of Evil book, the Chinese Mulan movie, and my Moana DVD and soundtrack. Oh yeah, there’s my Lunar 2 game, too. And my keys are on a chibi Hatsune Miku keychain. And my 15th anniversary Tamagotchi toy, too~

And there’s my craft box full of my furry stuff. My goggles, my ears, my tail, my badge - on my 8bit Link lanyard, of course.

Monthly Manga Review Index: November 2017

In a month that saw the return of Battle Angel Alita and AKIRA, and the manga debut of In This Corner of the World, the most reviewed title was NISIOSIN and Mitsuru Hattori’s Imperfect Girl, an adaptation of a light novel about a sad-sack writer and the weird girl who upends his life. Other popular review subjects included Children of the Whales, Frau Faust, To Your Eternity, and the latest volume of My Hero Academia. Here at The Manga Critic, I reviewed a variety of titles, from horror — Yokai Rental Shop — to science fiction and fantasy — Astra Lost in Space and The Promised Neverland — and reference works — Manga in Theory and Practice: The Craft of Creating Manga.

In the process of casting my net more widely for manga reviews, I discovered two new sites: Lovely Mangas, a website focusing mostly on untranslated series, and J!Ent.online, a pop-culture website with a dedicated manga critic. I was also delighted to see that Alex Hoffman’s Sequential State had a robust select of new-ish manga reviews, all of which I’m ashamed to say I missed when they were first posted. I’ve atoned by adding them to the index, and encourage you to check them out, too.

REVIEWS OF THE MONTH

Brigid Alverson is more journalist than reviewer these days, but when she flexes her critic’s muscles, I always finish her piece thinking, I wish I’d written that! Brigid’s special gift is writing incisive criticism in a conversational style that’s as accessible to the manga n00b as it is the seasoned fan. Most recently, she weighed in on what makes My Hero Academia the best shonen title in the VIZ catalog right now:

If you think the superheroes in My Hero Academia are bonkers, wait till you see the villains! One is a swirl of dark mist, while another seems to be made mostly of hands. (While most artists have a tough time drawing hands, Horikoshi seems to enjoy it, and he even throws in a little hand-creature at the start of each volume.) The villains are after All Might, but they have to get through the students of UA first—and the students prove to be more formidable than they figured.

Honorable mention goes to A Library Girl, whose review of Land of the Lustrous achieved the near-impossible feat of describing what happens in volume one. After reading her take, I might just give this incredibly confusing, ravishingly beautiful series another try.
