Cupkayke Rewatches/Liveblogs Boueibu!
Season 1, Episode 3
Tumblr media
So I dropped off the face of Tumblr for awhile, sorry guys! I also rewatched the entirety of Yuri on Ice with my boyfriend and he now likes ice skating anime so that took some time lol But I am back JUST IN TIME FOR YUMOTO’S BIRTHDAY OMG HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRECIOUS CHILD. So, have a liveblog/collection of my stupid thoughts about one of the more ridiculous episodes! Yay! 
Also, I apologize in advance- some of this episode’s subtext led to an impromptu dissection of the boys’ sexualities/orientations and there are some brief mentions of unsavory teachers (because what kind of teacher holds a pretty boy contest???) so if any of my terminology/speculation is incorrect or you find any of my discussions potentially triggering or in need of tags PLEASE inbox me and I will tag the post as such/correct any misinformation! I am a literature student- I like to analyze things. Sometimes I get carried away~
I SAW THE PREVIEW IMAGE FOR THIS EP ON CRUNCHYROLL AND IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT ‘HERE WE GO I REMEMBER THIS EPISODE IT’S GONNA BE A TRASH PARADE AND WTF CITY LET’S GO’
Tumblr media
Okay- I always wondered about the pretty boy contest… like why? What purpose does it serve? Why are there posters put up in a fucking BATHHOUSE advertising the local boys’ high school’s PRETTY BOY CONTEST. .3 seconds into the episode and it’s ridiculous. 
Tumblr media
What do you mean ‘weight with the ladies’ c’mon man I have a hard time believing you care ANYTHING about ‘the ladies’ -eyebrow waggle-
Tumblr media
He’s doing pirouettes in a towel… okay seriously bro I danced ballet for like 10 years and I never pirouetted in a towel OKAY THAT’S PROBABLY A LIE BUT YOU CAN’T PROVE IT OTHERWISE
Tumblr media
"EWWWW TEACHER DICK”
Tumblr media
Aww Yumoto. So innocent. So naive. So willing to point out he just saw his teacher’s penis-
Tumblr media
...well that’s an odd question. Yumoto why would you ask-
Tumblr media
Oh, shew, it’s because you’re not ashamed of bodies! How sweet and innocent and refreshi-
Tumblr media
WAIT BACK UP NEVERMIND YUMOTO WTF THAT’S CALLED VOUYERISM
Tumblr media
Those are the faces of some senpais that just came to the realization that their kouhai has probably been checking them out.
Tumblr media
Well he got dressed fast.
Tumblr media
How do you hire someone by accident?
Tumblr media
Took the words right out of my mouth, Atsushi.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is disturbing on several levels. Pedo Principal? -shudders-
Tumblr media
FEET SHOULD NOT BEND THAT WAY
Tumblr media
GUYS. GUYS. GUYS. AKOYA AS A BALLET DANCER OMG. IMAGINE. HAS THIS BEEN DRAWN? THIS NEEDS TO BE FANART SOMEWHERE. HE’D BE SO PRETTY JUST IMAGINE HIM IN TIGHTS BEING THE PRINCIPAL MALE LEAD IN SWAN LAKE OR FUCK EVEN IN A FUCKING TUTU BECAUSE HE’D BE GORGEOUS IN EITHER ROLE I CAN’T EVEN AWKEJFLASJFASLDJFOSIJFOAJ -Cupkayke Explodes-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Arima speaks truth
Tumblr media
Io why do you have an exact copy of the calculator I use at work that’s terrifying.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
RYUU YOU ARE LYING YOU GO TO AN ALL BOYS SCHOOL THAT IS APPROXIMATELY 0% WOMEN TRY AGAIN
Tumblr media
Io looks so disappointed he can’t talk numbers with Ryuu
Tumblr media
THEIR CHEESY CATCHPHRASE AGAIN
Side note I feel like the quirkiness of the school got toned down in later eps but perhaps that’s my faulty memory. Which is why I’m rewatching it lol.
Tumblr media
Pretty and savage AF
Tumblr media
PINK RIVALRY! I mean seriously, “you can’t seem to take your eyes off of me?” Maybe not even a rivalry but something else ohohohohohoh I’m alone on this ship
Tumblr media
Okay this creepy teacher apparently calls all the boys ‘sweet honey’ which is disturbing on its own level but that got cranked up to 11 on the creep scale when he referred to YUMOTO as sweet honey. 
Yumoto is a precious cinnamon roll you freak
Paper airplane contest lololol why do I feel like this happened at my school back in the day?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wombat sounds like a jealous lover lolol
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OH BOY! PUNS!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
RYUU AND AKOYA TIED FOR THIRD???
HOW DOES AKOYA NOT WIN IN THE LINEUP OF THE SC???
LIKE SERIOUSLY KINSHIROU????
AKOYA IS TEN TIMES PRETTIER!
This school must have a thing for ice princes I s2g
Tumblr media
En's boredom is dangerous. I mean... the face says it all.
Tumblr media
Ryuu is all “this is NOT up my alley”
Tumblr media
A bit slow on the uptake, Yumoto.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Io that’s so sweet... I guess? Well Ryuu seems to think it is- look at his face!
Tumblr media
...nevermind. His expression is all “Thanks... I guess...”
Tumblr media
Either Yumoto was hoping his senpais would teach him how to be popular with the ladies, or he’s just confused as to what in the hell it is that older boys want. This entire scene is just a clusterfuck of innuendo BUT I’M GONNA OVER ANALYZE IT ANYWAY.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The surface meaning of En and Atsushi’s statements here- or what the audience is supposed to get- is that being popular with girls will only get you so far. It may get you ‘love’ but having a girlfriend means jack squat if you don’t have guy friends (most likely to brag to). 
It also could be taken that En at least would rather appreciate women than exert his energy into making them lust after him, which is rather sweet if you think about it.
Atsushi’s point also draws attention to the fact that stereotypical displays of machismo are much more well-received by other men than women- ie outward displays of strength, aggression, bragging about sexual encounters... er- yeah. No need to go on, there.
So. In order to be a well-rounded man, a man needs to be popular/be admired by other men! So you aren’t a lonely loser the rest of your days.
Buuut... because I’m me... LET’S LOOK AT THE SUBTEXT IN RELATIONSHIP TO THEIR SPECULATED SEXUALITIES 8D
En basically says straight up it’s more beneficial to be admired by men. Putting aside the above statements about admiring women... En’s likely gay. Fosho.
And the top screencap of Yumoto, instead of just clarifying his senpai’s intentions, that could mean that he’s more interested in girls. HOWEVER-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
With a c: face, Yumoto admits his heart flutters watching rugged young men!
Tumblr media
Bi Yumoto anyone? (He also unironically uses the word ‘flicks’ but that’s either a translator thing or another example of a mysterious dialect but ON TOPIC-)
At least within the context of this scene, Yumoto implies he’d be interested in being popular with girls and he is attracted to at very least a certain type of man. Buuut the rest of this episode (which I will get to later) potentially directly contradicts this implication as to Yumoto’s romantic and/or otherwise attraction.
It’s too bad that we don’t get Ryuu or Atsushi’s opinions on the matter- although Ryuu makes his attractions pretty clear just from his character (and then the subtext with Io). Atsushi is a bit of a mystery, for now. 
As for Io, we get this  exchange-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Le sigh. Io is moneysexual. Anyway...
Tumblr media
Wombat so salty- I guess helping Ryuu win a contest is more entertaining than being superheroes.
Tumblr media
Me about halfway through this post
Tumblr media Tumblr media
En's expressions in this scene are great.
Tho does anyone else now headcanon En as really into athletics when he isn’t being lazy?
Like him really liking competition just fits so well but without a goal he’s just like ‘why bother’
Tumblr media
Atsushi sounds so awkward calling him Yufuin
“I can’t just announce him as Enchan that’s weird but I don’t think I’ve ever said his last name ughhhhhhhhh”
Tumblr media
Io is NOT playing by the unspoken one urinal in between rule
ALSO I JUST NOTICED YOU CAN SEE THE GUY ON THE LEFT ACTUALLY PEEING WTF
Water go swoosh swoosh
Also their bathrooms are fancy AF
Tumblr media
GDI why does Io make the best seduction face
Even tho it’s more predatory here still...
Tumblr media
THEY WERE REALLY HEAVY HANDED WITH THE INNUENDO IN S1
Tumblr media
The triplets WHY ARE THEIR EYES SO WEIRD
WHAT IS IT WITH THIS SHOW AND SIDE CHARACTERS WITH WEIRD EYES
Tumblr media
Ryuu so destructive lol
I TAKE BACK WHAT I SAID ABOUT EN BEING ATHLETIC RYUU DOES FUCKING KARATE
Tumblr media
Sparkles
Tumblr media
Ibushi is still savage AF
Tumblr media
I had to giggle and cap his character card because the image of Atsushi doing gigantic jigsaw puzzles was adorable
Tumblr media
YOU’RE A TEACHER WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE A PRETTY BOY?
LIKE SERIOUSLY WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE VALIDATED BY HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
Did he get scorned and that’s why his self esteem is in the toilet???
Tumblr media
1579th pretty boy contest??? Damn Pedo Principal is thirsty AF I am still shuddering at the implications
Tho seriously that’s -does math- ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE YEARS OF PRETTY BOY CONTESTS WHAT THE FUCK
And that isn’t taking into account there would probably be a month or two where school isn’t in session on the 27th to have the pretty boy contest. Like December wouldn’t they be on break? And don’t they have a summer holiday at some point?
IT ISN’T JUST ONE PEDO PRINCIPAL IT’S A DYNASTY
EWWWWWWWWW.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
YUMOTO AND RYUU BROTHER RELATIONSHIP I FRIENDSHIP IT LOOK RYUU IS BLUSHING
Tumblr media
Yumoto knows he’s a lil shit
Tumblr media
What the fuck kind of sound effect is swan swan???
I’m suddenly reminded of Kronk doing his own theme music-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ryuu so salty he wanted to know the winner
Tumblr media
Yumoto that writhing mob of students is pretty gross I agree
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
SO ZUNDAR WANTS THE ENTIRE WORLD TO BE GAY
THAT’S HIS EVIL PLAN TURN EVERYONE GAY
HE SOUNDS LIKE A SHITTY GROSS POLITICIAN
Tumblr media
With that shot angle I was just waiting for him to lay a fucking egg but thankfully that didn’t happen
Tumblr media
The subtitle is inaccurate- he actually said ‘GIMME HUG’ which is slightly more unsettling.
Tumblr media
EN YOU WANT TO MARRY IT WTF
Tumblr media
Yumoto still just like c: “I have no idea what’s going on”
Tumblr media
I NOW PRESENT TO YOU THE BEST BOUEIBU SCREENCAPS IN THE HISTORY OF SCREENCAPS 
Tumblr media
ATSUSHI SO GRACEFUL
Tumblr media
SO ROMANTIC
Tumblr media
EN IS JEALOUS
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THEY’RE ALL RIDICULOUS
Tumblr media
Speaks for itself
Tumblr media
And here is where Yumoto contradicts his earlier implications. Okay. 1) Writers make up your minds, although 2) ...shades of gray here.
Perhaps Kurotori’s feather spell represents sexual love (Eros for all you YOI fans~) and Yumoto is either a) too young/innocent to understand or b) somewhere on the ace spectrum. The others were affected because they are either simply older than Yumoto/past puberty or allosexual to the point where the spell could manipulate their feelings despite their existing attractions whatever those may be.
Yumoto’s earlier comments, then, could be taken to mean simply romantic attraction, even though his wording of his “heart fluttering” thanks to Yakuza men is a bit misleading in that respect. (Disclaimer: I am not on the ace spectrum so perhaps I am misrepresenting/misinterpreting here- please correct me if I have made a mistake in my understanding of asexuality- I definitely do not want to offend anyone! Just analyzing~) 
Though to play the other side, En’s comment about marriage, even though he’s under the influence of a spell, also indicates that the spell has romantic components as well as potentially sexual ones. If the spell plays to BOTH- wouldn’t Yumoto be affected as well, based on his earlier assertions?
OR PERHAPS- if it is both, Yumoto is ALSO potentially aromantic and his comments were purely of an aesthetic nature or self projection (that is, he wants to be a dashing Yakuza heartthrob, not necessarily date one). Or he was simply trying to relate to his senpais and was bluffing the entire time.
Damn, this episode can seem REALLY deep if you squint hard enough. Headcanons, abound!
Tumblr media
Moving on- WHEN IN DOUBT, HUG THE ENEMY!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now I’m starting to see some cleverness on the part of the writers- hear me out below- but first- MORE CUDDLES
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
With this, Yumoto can be read several different ways. 
On the surface and probably most importantly, regardless of what Yumoto’s personal attraction/orientation is (if he’s even figured it out at this point), he knows love at its purest form. He loves his brother. He loves his senpais (even though at this point they barely know each other- Yumoto probably latches on quickly). But more importantly, he is so in tune with his own feelings he realizes that self love is at the core of any type of love. That if you aren’t secure in yourself, if you don’t care about yourself on some level, how can anyone else care about you either?
This is another reason why I love Yumoto even though he can get a bit heavy-handed at times and seem like a one-note character; HE ISN’T.
Yumoto is incredibly introspective and even though his senapis make comments about how he just kind of shoves everything together to fit the situation he really does understand the monster-ified characters’ insecurities.
(Which can lead to some sad headcanons about how Yumoto has probably felt all of these things at one point or another... oh no...)
But back to my over-analysis of Yumoto’s orientation- with this... it’s really up to interpretation.
He can be read as a young character who hasn’t figured things out yet, he can be read as interested in romantic relationships of any variety but not necessarily anything else, he can be read as only interested in platonic relationships- anything. And while the inconsistency in his portrayal can be a bit maddening- it’s GREAT headcanon opportunity.
Thus, unless s3 gives Yumoto a canon interest- he’s whatever you think he is. Which is AWESOME! DO YOU SEE WHY I LOVE THIS SMOL CINNAMON ROLL?
Aaaand some closing, not very deep thoughts to wrap up-
Tumblr media
SO BLUSHY. MUCH ANGELIC. WOW.
Tumblr media
En you’re always tired
Tumblr media
Kinchan... why do you want people to grovel at your feet...?
Tumblr media
That’s certainly a random question, En- but for shits and giggles; these are their responses if I’m hearing their voices right:
Atsushi - My neck, I guess?
Yumoto - My arms
Ryuu - Armpits
Io - The nape of the neck.
My brain hurts so I have NO idea what these could mean but I highly doubt they’re throwaway lines- SO YOU GUYS TELL ME. Over-analyze what parts they wash first LOL
OKAY WOW THAT WAS LONG AS FUCK AND I GOT TOO DEEP. Again, let me know if I fucked anything up or need to add tags~ And let me know what you think/what your headcanons are/if there’s something from another canon source that could add to this!
I’ll try to get ep 4 up today as well since it took me forever to get back to this but this shit takes longer than I thought. I watch the ep first and take notes, then go back and re-watch and screencap and take more notes, then copy/pasta everything into tumblr and add more thoughts and make it readable. Shew.
