#I cannot express enough how sweet Kou is #guys how can anyone hate him??? or even dislike him????? why isn’t Kou everyone’s favorite character-?????? #he’s such a g r e a t character #I cannot put into words how much I love him #tbhk #jshk #toilet bound hanako kun #jibaku shounen hanako kun #kou minamoto #Yashiro is also great and I adore her reactions #and her in general but #ALSO chapter 82…….. #I was expecting Tsukasa to not be there when they left. the house in ruins was also kinda expected. it’s a tad cliche but it’s a good cliche #(all in my humble opinion of course) #and idk how to feel about anything else.. #I felt bad for little Tsukasa for a bit. I thought he was genuinely gonna be kinda sad- especially on the whole writing them a letter thing #but then he got excited that Hanako was gonna kill him SO #the TBHK brainrot was dying off and has been fired r i g h t back up

Akudama Drive Character Opinions/Thoughts Pt. 2

Heyo!! <3 Here’s Pt. 2. I can’t believe this has two parts OMG. Remember that these are just my opinions so feel free to disagree with me! This was just a ramble I did for fun. I know it’s different from what I normally post, but hey! I wanted to try something new. :D 

Please enjoy and message me with anything. And definitely check out Pt. 1 if you haven’t done so already!

Cutthroat: I think I have a special place in my heart for white haired, crazy psychopaths, oop. (Juuzou Suzuya and Rui*) I adored Cutthroat from the very first moment I saw him. [Side note: I’m kind of disappointed that the show went with the pronoun “He” (I was super excited to have a nonbinary character, but alas.] Those little moments in the beginning with Swindler and Cutthroat were weird, but surprisingly wholesome at times and I really loved when he ate the tin of marshmallows, dropped the knife (you know when xD), and pressed all the buttons on board the airbus. I equally loved the serious side of him that showed that he was much more intelligent than he let on (that scene where he throws his knives to reach the button; Episode 3). I just thought that those two different personalities mixed in with the childlike-psychoticness was super refreshing (even if we’ve seen characters like him before). But as much as I love Cutthroat, I have mixed feelings about his death in episode 9. I know some people are angry at Swindler for killing him, but honestly I think it kind of had to be done what with the way that he was acting towards her (love vs. bloodlust. IT'S nOT lOvE). So while I’m definitely sad boi over him dying, I do admit that he was genuinely terrifying during his last moments. (Haha I prefer the Cutthroat that spends his day eating marshmallows, thank you!!)

Brother: Toilet Bound Hanako-Kun anyone? Lmaoo. I liked him a lot. I thought he was a cutie and I really admired the strength/resilience he showed in trying to protect his Sister (something that I’m sure was endearing to a lot of us). I was definitely aware that the two of them were Sus from the beginning when we saw them on board the Shinkansen, but I never could’ve imagined the ending! I originally predicted them being the bad guys of the story and that the Akudama would have to ally with the Executioners. But all in all I’m SO RELIEVED the two of them were able to escape to somewhere better. I loved the role that Swindler played within their lives (even for a short time) and how she helped Brother and Sister show more outward emotions to one another. Also that scene where he was surprised at all the swear words Sister learned was so funny. xD 

Sister: I was suspicious of both Brother and Sister from the very beginning and really didn’t have strong feelings for either of them. Sort of like. “Yay kids…?.” But I’m so glad that Sister really found herself with Swindler and was able to become more expressive and more child-like. It hurts to know that these two children can and never will have normal lives/childhoods, so in a really sad way Swindler was able to give Sister a glimpse into a normal life during her last few days. ;-; I really can’t say much more about Sister, besides the fact that I’m genuinely very happy that the two of them were able to continue living on hopefully in a better place. Her moments with Swindler and Courier were so cute!! And the way that she repeated everything they said was adorable. Also. HER OUTFIT slayed. I was so touched by the sisterly relationship that Sister and Swindler had. <3 

Executioner (Master): DayUM SiR save some of that badasseryness for the rest of us. He was super cool and I think his entire arc around his death was super well done!! A truly Breathtaking end to his life. While watching the show I definitely acknowledged how strong he was, but overall apart from that I can’t say I really had any particular feelings towards him. I have a confession: I didn’t really react too much to his death (I’m sorryyy I’m a terrible person). I appreciated more so about what he allowed for story-wise, I think he was a great example for the moral ambiguities between Akudama and Executioner/the moments between him and his pupil were great, but that’s about it. I think his final moments were very powerful and I could tell that he cared about his pupil a lot so that’s nice, especially in the context of her character growth later on in the show...which is amazing!! 

Executioner (Pupil): I really wished she would have joined the Akudama side. I obviously know that that would never happen, but it would’ve been amazing for her to question the actions of the executioners and change sides. We see that she isn’t driven in the same way that her boss or her teacher were and seemed genuinely affected when the little girl told her that her parents were killed in the riots. It would’ve been so cool to see her fight against Doctor alongside Hoodlum, Courier, Swindler in the train station (Side note: If the circumstances had been different, I don’t think she would’ve allowed Doctor to get her way like that, but who knows?). Another thing I loved was seeing the time lapse between her being a dedicated student to becoming almost a replica of her teacher (scar of some sort with a fierce determination to fight alone), but unlike her teacher, I felt more inclined to like her for whatever reason. I just felt that it would’ve been great to see her rise up against the Executioners and question her own morals further (even if that might have included sparing some Akudama’s lives). But overall, I liked her more as the season progressed. Go Girl! 

Executioner (Junior): This POOR boy had it rough. I mean signing on to be the junior apprentice of an Executioner during all of this?! And also the fact that Doctor literally pierced his heart with a needle AND he later got shot (possibly killed?) Like leave him alone! :00 Haha, but seriously, he seemed super nice and almost seemed like the Executioner equivalent to Swindler (not entirely sure what they’re doing/gets pulled into the mess of the Akudama, etc.). I thought he was super cute. :3

Boss: She was lowkey a bad bitch tho not gonna lie. I found her super cool with a great sense of authority...that is until she ordered all of the citizens to literally be slaughtered. I can understand why she issued the first order of having all the citizens be turned into Akudama, but then like just killing all of them that were rioting?? NOOO. I’m not quite too sure what else I should say about her? I thought she was interesting and would’ve liked to see her fight, or her own past (she seems older so backstory of the Executioners would’ve been fun!) 

Black Cat (A.I) : While parts of Brother and Sister’s backstories were a little lost on me, I liked the addition of Black Cat as sort of a mini-catalyst to the entire hijacking mission in the beginning. I think the cat had a great presence in the first episode (almost a symbol of bad luck from the moment Swindler finds them...OoooOO). Not much to say apart from the fact that like. Yup. That's a robot cat. [Side note: Sort of reminds me of Monokuma xD) 

Hope you enjoyed this! Check Out Pt. 1! 💕

Episode 3:

When Hanako was alive, he was a student at the school. He was s3xu@lly a$$aulted in the bathroom, and muđəred his attacker out of anger/mental instability, therefore cursing him to the bathroom he was assaulted in. He became a ghost to make up for his sins.

Idk maybe I'm just too obsessed with that theory

I see Hanako differently after the Library too, but in a different way.

What why the donuts?

He's totally lying. I bet he's gonna make some for Hanako🥺

Okay but Kou is actually pretty sweet

I mean, if he DID murder someone who bullied him, they had it coming for touching my precious Hanako😤

Walking Blind + Thoughts on The Little Mermaid Being Episode 12

Let’s Talk About JSHK Anime #2

Warning: Manga spoilers up until Tanabata Arc (basically that + the entirety of season 1 + the skipped arcs)

I’m gonna talk about how the anime keeps proving my predictions wrong with skipped arcs, and later right, with consequences. Due note that this isn’t me hating the anime (because I love it). Just my funny experience attempting to Sherlock my way through the anime, plus my thoughts on The Little Mermaid being the finale.

No deduction works when it comes to predicting this series.

It all started when episode 5, The Confession Tree, came out. I was looking forward to it ‘cause I’m hananene trash af. Legit thought the entire episode was gonna be about Kodama.

But then the episode preview pics came out and I was like, “Sakura wtf are you doing here you don’t show up again until three chapters later?”

My first prediction was ep 5 would be entirely Kodama, and then ep 6 would be Young Exorcist. Seeing that these arcs serve to build up Nene and Kou wanting to know more about Hanako, I thought it’d be nice that we set aside two episodes just for that.

But then Kodama finished somewhere around the fifteenth minute mark, and we started Young Exorcist Part 1. Which was, you know, fine. But then instead of continuing, they jumped right to the end of the arc when Nene met Sakura for the first time, and then kept going to No. 5′s rumor and revealed Tsukasa early. Next episode’s title preview confirmed it, too. Ep 6 was gonna be 4PM Bookstacks.

Okay. I still had hope. Maybe they just rearranged the order.

On the other hand, the lack of ‘Part 1′ in the title was alarming. And it came true. They packed four chapters into one episode. A lot of things got cut. There wasn’t enough room for the op, and they had to run the credits while the episode was still ongoing. Though, tbh, other than Tsuchi’s line about him being able to change the books (with dire consequences), I didn’t have much problem with the cut scenes.

Then this thing showed up.

Before ep 5 I didn’t think we’d get Donuts until around episode 9-ish. But nope the No. 7s would meet each other in ep 7 (lmao see what I did there?). Again, I was fine with it, but I was a bit upset about Young Exorcist.

Someone said it may be moved to the finale, and I didn’t like that idea. Mostly because Yashiro, our main audience POV, isn’t in the arc. And it just sounds weird having a finale without your main audience POV.

They could put her there, sure, but that would mean adjusting Nene and Teru’s every future interaction. Even without shipping goggles or Nene’s romance-colored glasses, do you think Nene would still act the same towards Teru if she saw him hurt Hanako like that? ‘Cause that was brutal. Like she wouldn’t run and protect him like she did when they met Kou.

They put Kou and Teru’s resolution from Young Exorcist into their convo in episode 7. This kinda makes Teru a bit useless, though. I mean, he still doesn’t do much in the manga but the tension between him and Kou was supposed to set up this badass fight. Since it didn’t happen, and Young Exorcist isn’t gonna be the finale either, then he’s pretty much useless.

Anyway, the thing about Teru being onto The Broadcasting Club?

Not from the manga.

I’m not sure if Manga!Teru is really onto them. As far as I remember, it wasn’t hinted anywhere in the manga. Do correct me if I’m wrong. So what was the point of that change?

I didn’t get pissed until halfway through episode 7 and suddenly Mitsuba was there, but no fishes.

“What is he doing here, where’s that puffer fish, where’s his murder? Hello?”

I was very neutral about Mitsuba from the very beginning but when he showed up where The Little Mermaid (and my fish murder!!!) was supposed to be I kinda began to grow undeserved resentment toward him (I’m cool now though!). Totally, totally undeserved, because it wasn’t his character’s fault.

I was happy because Mitsuba stans got to see him animated (he was cute, and his VA was so good). But putting him in episode 7??? I mean they just left Hanako and Nene’s tension unresolved like that. That makes the episode really choppy in my opinion. They could’ve had the coolest final shot of the season of Tsukasa murdering that fish to scare and excite the anime-onlys. They missed that chance.

We got to episode 8. Pretty solid. Still would’ve preferred if its first bits weren’t in Donuts, but solid.

Preview title basically confirmed they’re skipping The Little Mermaid too. That was when I lost hope in Young Exorcist. But I tried to compromise. If they weren’t animating The Little Mermaid, then they have to put Hanako and Nene’s conversation and pinky promise in The Little Mermaid at the end of ep 9.

Episode 9 turned out to be my favorite. It was all thanks to Natsuhiko. He really cheered me up over our loss of two arcs. And my prediction was right for once. Hanako apologized for ruining the donuts. That’s definitely not the point of their tension (Tsu-ka-sa and trust), but it was still nice and I’d take what I could get. The hug. The hug was very nice.

I was mostly content, excited to see my boi Akane the next week. But then I thought, wait, we only have three episodes left. And we’re definitely reaching Hell of Mirrors, ‘cause No. 3′s silhouette is in the OP. Then the horrifying thought hit me.

They were gonna skip Searching.

But! The freaking post-credit showed up followed by this:

“They skipped Searching AND Clock Keeper??? Why on earth would you highlight Akane, with Teru of all people, in the OP then?! Paralleling Mitsuba and Kou no less!”

Due notice, yet again, the lack of ‘Part 1′ in the title preview. Before the episode actually aired, this was my train of thought: “Okay so they skipped The Clock Keeper and Searching, and decided to outdo episode 6 by packing 6 chapters (yeah, I counted “Reach Out Your Hand”) into one episode. Ahahaha ... what?”

Thankfully, they proved me wrong. Kay. Good. Thanks a bunch for fooling me with that title preview.

But then it freaking hit me. You got one episode left. The finale. Sure, Clock Keeper as a finale will be perfect. It’s a good hook for season 2. However. You can’t do Clock Keeper without doing Searching. It’d basically be almost the same as doing Donuts without doing The Little Mermaid. The finale wouldn’t feel resolved this way, because, again, there’s tension between Hanako and Nene (and Kou too) that isn’t resolved yet.

Not that Searching addressed the cause of the tension, but at least it brought the trio back to their status quo (well, with a bit of kounene and hananene development haha). Also, without Searching, it’ll only end like this:

Clock Keeper itself is 5 chapters. They can cut and modify. Sure. But y’all saw ep 6.

So that’s why I was sure we’re definitely not getting No. 1 this season. To me, that leaves three options for the finale.

A. Delivery + Tanabata Arc

Best pick in my opinion

It’s the direct continuation to Hell of Mirrors

The main trio are all there, especially our audience POV

More glimpses of Amane is always a plus point

The ‘getting hit by a bull, waking up in the past, and seeing your boyfriend before he died’ is just so random I think it’d be a pleasant surprise for the anime-onlys

Just wholesome in general, leaves the audience feeling good

The-ma-tic!!! You begin the series with Nene’s wish and end it with Amane’s isn’t that just asdfghjkl wish wish wish, everything’s about wishes in JSHK

B. Young Exorcist

Classic boss battle finale

Just Teru’s badassery *chef’s kiss*

Hanako getting emotional (something we haven’t really seen before)

Getting deeper into Hanako’s motive (episode 8 would’ve been more impactful had we had Young Exorcist before it, what with his view of disappearing/exorcism for ghosts being salvation)

Kou’s character development

^ counter argument: he already got the character development he went through in Young Exorcist in episode 6 and 7, plus, he and Teru already resolved their disagreements - though, not as impactful as in the manga

Also wholesome, HanaKou is great I love their friendship so much *sobs*

C. The Little Mermaid

@emee-ems​ pointed out here: “it started with the mermaid so they’ll end it with the mermaid” and I agree

Yashiro being persuaded to leave Hanako, while their friendship was what began the whole series? That’s some good conflict right there

Seeing Hanako worried about Yashiro leaving him? Good shit

Also wholesome (extra shipping content never hurts, either)

Hanako willingly opening up to Yashiro for the first time!!! That’s a big milestone for them

Yashiro accepting that he’s just not ready instead of not trusting her like she’d thought is *chef’s kiss*

That pinky promise! Starting the series making a bond due to unfortunate circumstances and ending the series making/staying loyal to a bond out of choice??? Good shit

Aaaaannnnddddd the verdict was:

Mmmmmkay.

I did previously think we’re gonna end the season with The Little Mermaid. But here’s the thing. It only works if everything is in chronological order.

Why? Because the tension that led to this arc in the first place is resolved already in episode 9.

The whole point of TLM is that conversation at the end, really, where:

Hanako apologizes for ruining the donuts (he already did in episode 9)

Hanako thanks Yashiro for telling him that she liked him

Hanako admits that he had a little brother and that he killed him (Tsukasa already confirmed both of this for Nene, both in episode 7 and episode 9)

So having Hanako repeating all this seems kinda redundant. Nene already knows. Sure, it’ll be nice to hear it from him directly ... but it’s too late now, isn’t it? It’s been four episodes. She’s met Tsukasa three times now. However, point number 2 is still available.

Furthermore, since Hanako already apologized in episode 9, I’m not sure if the fishes can use what happened in episode 7 to persuade Nene to leave him. I mean, she forgave him already. Tension resolved. They hugged and all. And it’s been so long since then.

Animating the fish murder scene is also kinda useless. It was supposed to give the audience a glimpse of how dangerous Tsukasa is. But we already know that. We saw him rip someone’s heart out and force-feed it to someone else.

The first half of The Little Mermaid Part 1 and The Broadcasting Club at the end of Part 2 are already animated in episode 7. That leaves them even more room for extra scenes. I hope they take good advantage of that.

Basically, they have to make a lot of adjustments and I’m curious to see what they’re gonna do.

I am happy that we’re gonna see The Little Mermaid. The way Hanako wipes Nene’s face with his sleeve, and then cradles her head? I need it, they make my heart melt. Can’t wait.

Toilet-bound Hanako-kun Chapter 17: The Little Mermaid (Part 2)

Previously:  we started a new arc and things get complicated for both Yashiro and Hanako. We met “the other Hanako” and with that, we got a glimpse of Hanako’s backstory (if his reaction is anything to go by). After being so shaken by the encounter, Hanako starts to avoid Yashiro and it couldn’t happen at a worse time since the Mermaid’s followers found her and now are trying to get Yashiro to sever her bond with our ghost boy and to go with them instead. The chapter also brought up the concept of trust and how Yashiro views her relationship with Hanako so far (with Tsuchigomori putting in his two cents and talking a little about how Hanako probably feels), and I really really love how the author is handling it so far.

Now onto the next chapter!

Ohhhhhh!!!!! That’s the image from the anime opening!!! The one that I think made every anime-only go “wait….what???”. This image was pretty disturbing without context, but now knowing that the shadowy figure could represent his brother, it adds another layer of yikes ngl

Ah, right, when we last left off, the fish had forced Yashiro into the water when she declined their invitation. A great way to get her to trust you, guys. Truly a phenomenal job.

………..

I want to be where the people are, I want to see- want to see 'em dancin'~~

Again: that’s fucking rude! Don’t you go dissing my girl like that, she’s a bit ditzy but she’s wonderful!!

I was gonna say “how do you expect her to come with you after trash-talking her like that?” but that’s probably the angle they’re going for. They’re trying to crush her self esteem so that she has no choice but to think that going to their world would be the best thing she could do. Clearly, they’re not above using dirty tactics.

…………..sigh Yeah I was afraid of that. Like, the way I see it, Yashiro’s concern with popularity stems from her own desire for people to like her (it goes hand in hand with her romantic personality), so if these fish tell her “Oh, you’re nothing more than a walking disaster as a human, no one will love you if you stay here. but if you come with us, you will be loved by all”, it doesn’t surprise me that she would be tempted by the idea.

Oh, is Hanako finally here?

There he is!! And as always, he arrives just in the nick of time and rescues her with great dramatic flair. Also, there’s something about fish!Yashiro’s expression that is just really funny to me.

He says “your world may be kind to her...this one my be cruel...but it doesn’t matter” 

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh ಥ‿ಥ you tell them, Hanako! They have no right to try and take Yashiro away from this world and him. Also, this page is beautiful holy shit, it’s simple yet detailed where needed. “Are you gonna praise the art style every recap?” you ask……...yeah, probably

ಥ‿ಥ  I love them so much ಥ‿ಥ

You know? Sometimes I forget how scary Hanako can look sometimes. But then his eyes go all black and he smiles like that and I remember.  The threat seems to be enough to send the fish packing, though, even if they do say that they won’t give up on getting Yashiro to go with them.

Ahhhh, this makes me so happy! They’re clearly still learning to interact in a more “serious” manner around each other. It’s a slow process but they’re communicating more effectively (Yashiro with her speech to him when she gave him the donuts and Hanako apologizing not only now but also after the confession tree incident) and it’s really nice to see. And just look at how happy that made her! That’s all that she wanted, for him to reach out to her after he avoided her for a while. Another thing that I really appreciate is these rare moments where we get Hanako acting sincerely, no jokes or cheeky smiles, just him laying out his genuine feelings; especially here, since it proves that what the fish said was wrong.

I feel the need to point out that she’s not denying it. Like, yes, she meant it as friends, but the implications are there and don’t think for a second that I don’t see the “badum, badum, badum” and the blush. The romantic chemistry they have is very apparent and I’m living for it.

OH! There it is! Well, I’m glad that the reveal didn’t take very long (even if it was a pretty important thing to be spoiled on).

That’s a nice detail. He’s trying to act naturally but this is clearly a sensitive topic for him……..which makes me think that Yashiro’s assumption last chapter will be right.

……………..yeah, there it is. Can’t say I’m particularly surprised but it’s still a hard pill to swallow. I talked about it last chapter (and maybe during some of the other chapters as well) but with the clues we’ve been given and considering Hanako’s behaviour, the theory that makes the most sense to me so far is that Hanako probably killed his brother in self-defence. Then again, this is still pretty early in the story, so there’s probably a lot we still don’t know. Like I mentioned earlier, Hanako also has moments where he looks/acts scary, so there could be something more to that. It could also just be a side effect of him becoming a supernatural but  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hanako asks her if she really wants to get to know him after learning that, and tells her that if she does, he will tell her everything someday. And this is a great step in the right direction. Not only it puts Yashiro’s concerns ("does he trust me?”) at ease, but also it shows his current feelings ("i’m not ready to share yet, but i need to let het know that) and his willingness to open up and be vulnerable in the future. Character development, gotta love it.

(TдT)(TдT)(TдT)

OH!!!! Are we shifting perspectives to the suspicious girl?? Because I remember that in the anime she was always the one that spread the rumors over the radio, or, well, the intercom, I guess. And since we now know that she’s Hanako’s brother’s assistant, there’s a very high chance of seeing him again. I’m both excited and terrified by the prospect. ALSO what the actual fuck is that on the left. Why are there body parts seemingly floating around??? is this just an artistic choice or are they actually there?? Either way, it’s creepy as hell.

Oh, god, it looks like those things are actually there in the room and just imagining being there gives me goosebumps. But yes, anyway, there she is! And Natsuhiko, too! Gotta say, kinda missed our suspicious person 1 and suspicious person 2. He’s worried about letting Hanako’s brother run off but she says that he wouldn’t have listened to her if she had tried to stop him anyway. Which is interesting, since while Hanako does march to the beat of his own drum, he still seems to take what Yashiro and Kou say into consideration (even if just a little bit).

Oh? “boundaries within cities”? Like, not just within the school? We know that she has knowledge of the boundaries thanks to her conversation with Yashiro in the library but maybe she’s expanding her search to reach a bigger scope?

Natsuhiko is worried about the chance of our wonder trio finding out they’re the ones behind the changes in the rumors. And that’s a valid concern, since Hanako is in charge of maintaining the relationships between humans and supernaturals, and he obviously would have to intervene. 

………...I-I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t this omfg. She certainly has him wrapped around her finger, huh?

(⚆.⚆)  Oh boy, there he is, oh boy. 

I’m sorry I just have to point out how utterly done she looks. Like, since she slapped Natsuhiko for touching her hand, I’m guessing she’s not a very touchy-feely person, so this must be quite bothersome for her. Still, her expression is wonderful lol Also! It looks like not caring about people’s personal bubbles is something that runs in the family……….oh, is that why she called him a cat? Possibly.

Okay, so he says that this is not his usual outfit (and that explains the more Japanese-style outfit I saw him wearing in the spoiler) but he wore it because he “was seeing Amane for the first time in ages.” So there’s the confirmation about the fact that he hasn’t been at the school for a significant amount of time. And, again, that’s very suspicious.

Okay. Listen. He looks very cute. But Hanako’s terrified expression keeps reappearing in my mind when I think that. So I’m gonna wait and see what’s the deal with this boy because for now I mostly feel….unsettled.

“He looked happy to see me,” he says, while floating around in a childlike manner. I, uh, um. Are you sure about that, honey?? Because it sure didn’t seem like it to me. 

Also: “But I still can’t move around that well yet. They chased me off.” So that’s what happened on the rooftop. He said that she had helped him get here, so maybe his spirit form hasn’t fully “materialized” enough  for him to move around comfortably.

(⚆.⚆) (⚆.⚆)  Remember how I said that I felt unsettled? Well, this really isn’t helping the matter jfc

Wow he’s really clingy, like, even more than Hanako by the looks of it. He’s like my cats when it’s time for me to feed them. Also! Sakura! I’m guessing that’s her name, right? I can finally stop calling her suspicious girl lol

But yeah, quite the trio we have here. Now that Hanako’s brother is here, I’m guessing that their little ensemble is complete since they would work in direct opposition to Yashiro, Hanako and Kou.

Oh! I feel like I’ve said “oh” so much this chapter….oh, well. The fish are back! “We’ve found him” Are they talking about Hanako’s brother? Do they know who he is or maybe they are mistaking him for Hanako?

Ah, no. They saw what happened in the rooftop the other day; they recognize him and they remember how shaken Hanako looked at the time so they want to win him over to be able to fight against Hanako. I mean, it’s not a bad plan. Hanako’s brother doesn’t seem to want to hurt him but by that one interaction they had, we can see that their relationship definitely has some complicated layers.

So what’s been happening with the rumors has reached even the mermaid’s kingdom? That really makes me wonder exactly how interconnected the different worlds are since information seems to travel quite fast.

Natsuhiko spotted the fish and…

*me, remembering his comment about wanting to see how the fish are on the inside*  (⚆.⚆)

(;;⚆_⚆) (;;⚆_⚆)

(ﾟдﾟ；) yeah, I don’t think he’s gonna listen to you, Sakura.  jfc that’s a face that’s gonna appear in my nightmares

Σ(ﾟДﾟ|||)  (ﾟдﾟ；)  Σ(ﾟДﾟ|||)

……………………don’t get me wrong, I wanted the fish to stop interfering but. not like This. I-Well, that’s certainly a way to end a chapter omfg. The fact that Sakura and Natsuhiko, seem to be used to him doing this kind of thing is…...concerning, to say the least.

More Erasermic Model AU??

Part 1

Shouta can’t hide the small smile that crosses his face as he steps off the subway platform into the station proper. It would take a stronger man than him to remain expressionless in the face of Hizashi Yamada, grinning at him and waving like a loon. 

“Aizawa!” Yamada says, hurrying over to him. “You’re right on time!” 

“So are you,” Shouta says, appreciatively. There’s a lot to appreciate about Yamada, though his punctuality certainly isn’t the least of it. Currently, Shouta’s admiring the line of his shoulders beneath his leather jacket. 

“I hope you’re hungry!” Yamada says, linking their arms as they walk out of the station together. Shouta stiffens at first, startled by the unexpected display of affection, mild as it is, but after a moment he decides to roll with it. Yamada seems pleased with the arrangement, and Shouta finds that he doesn’t mind the closeness. 

They make small talk as Yamada leads them through the neighborhood. Shouta keeps an eye on their surroundings - it’s not the kind of place he’d want to walk alone at night, and he wonders how well Yamada knows the area, if there was a reason he’d wanted to meet up at the station and travel together. 

“Here we are!” Yamada says, coming to a stop outside a shabby building, the first floor of which is a yakitori restaurant. At least it’s clean, Shouta thinks to himself as Yamada holds the door for him like a gentleman. 

The man behind the register flicks his eyes disinterestedly in their direction. “You brought a friend today, Yamada?” He asks, eyes on his newspaper. “My wife will be excited.”

“Nooo,” Yamada groans in the way people do when they really mean yes. “Don’t tell her! She’ll scare him off.”

“You did it to yourself,” the man shrugs. “Does your friend need a menu?”

Shouta doesn’t hear Yamada’s answer, too busy looking at the photos on the wall behind the register, casual snapshots that must be the owners’ children and grandchildren. There’s a picture of Yamada there too, smiling at the camera and pointing at a magazine with his own image on the cover. It’s not a very good photo - the lighting is poor, Yamada’s smile is too wide and foolish, and he’s not quite centered in the frame, but Shouta likes it. There’s nothing studied or inauthentic about it; Yamada’s giddiness is nearly tangible. 

He only breaks his gaze when Yamada beckons him away from the counter. “You must come here often,” Shouta says, nodding towards the pictures. He hopes he doesn’t sound as surprised as he is. 

But Yamada just grins, leading Shouta over to a booth in the corner. “Not as much now as I used to. I live upstairs.”

“You live upstairs?” Shouta can’t help repeating, wondering if he’d misheard. Yamada hasn’t been in the Industry all that long, sure, but he’s a big enough name now to own a flashy penthouse in a nice part of town. Not an apartment above a cheap restaurant in a neighborhood that had seen better days. 

“I got the place when I moved to the city a few years ago. The rent was low but I could still barely swing it.” He shoves a worn menu in Shouta’s direction. “Everything’s good, but the tsukune’s unbeatable.”

Before Shouta can answer, a girl appears at the end of their table. “Is this your boyfriend, Yamada?” She asks, curiously. “And do you want your usual?”

“No!” Yamada flushes prettily across the bridge of his nose. Shouta feels a sudden flare of longing for his camera. “I mean - yes I want my usual, but no he’s not my boyfriend! And you are being super uncool right now!” 

“How would you know? You’ve never been cool,” she smirks at him, then turns away from his sulky pout towards Shouta. “Do you know what you want?”

Shouta doesn’t bother trying to keep the smile off his face. “Whatever he’s having, I’m not picky.” 

“Clearly,” she rolls her eyes, turning back to Yamada and ignoring his outraged gasp. “Grandma’s gonna kill you for not telling her you were bringing someone.”

Yamada slides down into the booth, then brightens, like he’s thought of something. He looks at the girl, saying a few words Shouta doesn’t understand. They sound like English. 

The girl scowls, then says a few words back in the same language, much more slowly. Yamada’s small smile widens. 

“You need work,” he says smugly. It’s a cute look on him. 

“Maybe if my tutor were around more,” the girl says as she turns away, towards the door Shouta presumes leads to the kitchen. 

“Hey! I’m here every day! You’re the one who never - aaand she’s gone,” he sighs, dropping an elbow on the table and resting his chin on his hand. “University entrance exams are coming up. She’ll be singing a different tune then.”

“You tutor her?” Shouta asks, because he’s curious. He hadn’t heard that Yamada spoke English, let alone well enough to teach it. 

Yamada smiles. “Yeah! She’s pretty good actually. Back when I first moved here, I couldn’t afford much besides rent. Sometimes I barely had enough for dinner. The Hasegawas - they run this place - would let me hang around even when I didn’t order much. Hanako - she’s their granddaughter - would be hanging out too, studying. And I didn’t have much else to do, so I’d help.”

“That was nice of you,” Shouta says. 

Yamada just shrugs. “Nah, she’s a good kid. And Mrs. Hasegawa started sending me home with some of the leftover food when the place closed, so it was a good deal for me too!”

Shouta doesn’t know what to say to that, and before he can figure it out, Yamada changes the subject, asking him about his work that day at the studio. His answers are short at first, clipped and impersonal, but soon enough Yamada gets him telling stories about all his most difficult clients. 

“You’re shitting me,” Yamada asks, after hearing about a particularly irritating model. “So she wanted mixed nuts - a specific brand of mixed nuts - but with no cashews? She wanted you to pick the cashews out?”

Shouta shrugs. “I mean, I don’t thinks she cared who picked them out, as long as she never tasted, saw, or smelled them. Took for-fucking-ever.”

Yamada’s jaw drops. “Holy shit! You actually did it?!”

“Had to.” Shouta takes a sip of his beer. “Until I get an assistant, and can shove the grunt work at them.”

“I pity them already,” Yamada grins. 

When they’ve both finished eating, and the conversation reaches a natural lull, Shouta leans back in his seat, crossing his arms over his chest. “Can I ask you something?” 

“I’m an open book,” Yamada smiles, gazing at him flirtatiously through his eyelashes. It takes Shouta a moment to remember what he was going to say. 

“Why did you bring me here?”

Yamada straightens, his mood shifting mercurially. “Don’t you like it?” He asks. The words are casual, but Shouta gets the sense that a lot hangs on his answer. 

“I do,” he says. “But it seems very... personal. This place clearly means a lot to you. More than most people would show a first date.” 

“Ah,” Yamada smiles slightly, shoulders relaxing. “Yeah, I suppose it does, but-” he runs a hand through his hair, like he’s a little embarrassed. “If you were just going out with me because of my job, you would have hated this place, and it would have been really obvious.”

Shouta is saved from responding by Hanako bursting out of the kitchen and half-running over to their table. “Grandma’s gonna be done in the back soon,” she says, handing Yamada a paper bag. “I packed you up some stuff to go. If you hurry, you can make it back to your place before she comes looking for you.”

“I owe you,” Yamada says, vaulting out of the booth before opening his wallet and shoving some bills at her. Shouta follows more slowly, just to give him a hard time. 

“Don’t you want me to meet all your friends?” He asks as Yamada herds him to a side door. “Isn’t that why you brought me here?”

Yamada cringes. “Aizawa! She’s gonna talk your ear off! Be nice to me or I’ll let her!”

“Does she tell embarrassing stories about you? Maybe I’m interested,” Shouta says, though he follows Yamada into a hallway and up a barely-lit flight of stairs. Like the restaurant, the rest of the building is clean, but poorly maintained. Good tenants, bad landlord, Shouta thinks to himself as the steps creak under his weight. 

Yamada’s apartment is no better. The one window is cracked, and the floor is uneven in places. Most of the furniture is old and beat-up, but a few pieces are nicer, clearly new additions. If Shouta had to guess who lived here, he would have said a poor student who suddenly came into a bit of extra cash, not one of those most famous models in the country. 

They settle in front the the kotatsu to continue their conversation. It’s easy to fall back into it - Yamada is personable, and an important part of Shouta’s job is coaxing people to open up to him, to reveal things they’re used to keeping hidden. 

“You wanna know a secret,” Yamada asks after a while, leaning in conspiratorially and smiling in a way that makes Shouta want to agree to things without thinking. Even knowing this, he nods. “I own the building.” 

“You own-” Shouta glances around at the shabby walls, the cracks in the ceiling. “You own this building?”

“The Hasegawas were always so worried about the rent going up,” Yamada says lightly, like he’s talking about the weather. “I used to hear them talking about it, when I was waiting around to see if there was any leftover food. So when I started doing well with the modeling, I bought the place and hired a property manager to offer them a ten-year lease.” 

There’s a strange feeling in Shouta’s chest. He can’t identify it, but it makes him want to slide closer to Yamada. “And they don’t know?”

Yamada grins wider. “Nope,” he says, eyes bright and pleased. “Though they might suspect when the repairs start.” 

Shouta thinks back to that first day with Yamada, how annoyed he’d been at him before they even met. He’d nearly made such an ass of himself, assuming Yamada was the kind of person who’s throw a tantrum over mixed nuts or which brand of bottled water he was given, and Shouta half-wants to apologize for it. 

But he’s never been the kind of man who dwells on the past. It’s much more rational to focus on the future. “Are you still accepting applications?” Shouta says, inching his hand closer to Yamada’s and linking their pinkies together. 

“Uh - applications?” Yamada stutters. He’s blushing again. Shouta makes a mental note to bring his camera next time. 

“For a personal photographer.” Shouta smirks, enjoying the way the flush spreads down Yamada’s neck. He wonders how low it goes. “I’m very interested in the position.”

Yamada’s eyes darken. He licks his lips. “I can think of several positions you might be interested in. Maybe we could discuss them over another dinner?”

“Or breakfast,” Shouta shrugs. “Like I said earlier, I’m not picky.”

Yamada’s grin is sharp around the edges now. He leans very close, lips nearly brushing Shouta’s ear as he whispers. “How do you feel about cold yakitori? It’s all I have in the apartment.”

Shouta turns his head sharply, quick enough to catch Yamada’s lips in a brief kiss. “It’s a date.”

[thankchaosforspellcheck]

So I’m gonna rant for a bit on a GG/KHR crossover idea I had a while back because why not (the very start of said idea is actually already on ao3):

So after Barry drops Agatha off with Adam and Lilith and finds the other, he ends up getting blown into another dimension because he had to set a charge to take out the space station or whatever that Lu’s currently on, which caused a chain reaction that threw Lu through time (which explains the time travel) and Barry through space.

He ends up landing in Japan, and gets rescued by a women who lives near where he crashed named Hanako.  He takes weeks to recover, and in that time he runs all sorts of tests, which only tell him that it will take years, maybe even decades to create anything close to the machine that could get him back home.

So, he forges an id, gets a job, and patents a lot of inventions. (all of which were very minor sparkworks that he can easily translate into something normal people can actually build)  He also gets to know his now-housemate, the same women who picked him up.  She’s actually been very practical about this strange scientist that fell out of the sky.  Namimori’s a pretty strange place, after all, and her old roommate just got married so she was looking for someone to split the rent with anyways.

As the years go by, the two get closer and closer, and getting home seems farther and farther off.  One day, he’s working on something at the kitchen table, and he looks up and sees her just standing there, doing the dishes, and he freezes.  And realizes that he doesn’t think he could ever find anyone better then her.

So, he asks her out.

They get married a few months later.

Shortly after, they have their first child, Nana Heterodyne.  Barry’s very worried about when she will spark out, and goes a bit overboard in preparation, but the thing is... She never does.

Nana is sweet, intelligent, a bit air headed, and is 100% pure minion.  Barry has literally no idea how this happened, but he’s mostly just glad he isn’t essentially introducing an invasive species into an unsuspecting environment.

(He still preps her on how to handle sparks though, just in case.)

SO years and years later he’s finally finished up the transporter and is almost ready... and nana just had a baby who’s definitely a spark.  You can tell just from looking at the kid.  He really does have to leave so that he can make sure the other didn’t have any backups and root them out if she did, but he quickly writes up several in-depth manuals and makes up some good sparky distractions for when he gets older.  He kind of just hopes this will be enough for Nana’s new baby to survive his breakthrough, because it’ll be pretty rough with only one proper minion around, and said minion being his mother.

(unfortunately, the machine isn’t calibrated quite correctly, so he ended up much earlier in time then he meant to be, but that’s another story entirely)

Fortunately (or unfortunately, in Tsuna’s case) he ends up not needing any of it, because just before Tsuna starts his proper breakthrough, it all gets sealed away by one visiting mafia grandpa, who is operating under the assumption that he’s just getting his flames early.  So tsuna has to deal with going through life almost like Agatha did, except without the understanding parents or the occasional sympathetic ear.  The seal works a bit differently then Agatha’s locket, so Tsuna feels like he’s constantly trying to swim through cold jello with his brain, instead of getting headaches when too excited or angry.  He wants to understand, and he knows he could if he could just-!

and then the thought slips away, and he’s forced to start at the beginning of the same page again for the 75th time in a row.  It’s no wonder that, combined with the utter lack of encouragement from everyone around him, he just decides to give up on it entirely.  

He’ll have the odd thought now and again “that light is so inefficient” or “I wonder if anyone’s tried splicing the genes of axolotl with lizards to create a superior regenerative species...” but has never really been able to do anything with them...

...until reborn came.

Reborn’s very first meeting with Tsuna goes more or less the same, right up until he shoots him with a dethparation bullet, which was meant to make Tsuna go confess to Kyoko.  See, a person’s thought process and what they’re actually saying can often be vastly different, so while Tsuna was yelling at reborn “WHAT, I don’t have a crush on Kyoko-chan! Don’t be rediculous!” his actual thought process had already gone ‘Kyoko -> class -> that one annoying clock that runs about an hour late -> ARG I WISH I COULD FIX THAT STUPID THING’

so as a result:

Tsuna, bursting out of his clothes: “RAAA! FIX THE CLASSROOM CLOCK WITH MY DYING WILL!”

Reborn: “what.”

There’s something to be said about determined heterodyne sparks that just completely skipped breakthrough: they get the job done.  That clock was running perfectly on time to the millisecond once he was done with it.  It was also such a deathtrap that they couldn’t use that classroom anymore for the rest of the year but, hey! You gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette and all that.

running out of steam a bit so I’m gonna revert to bullet points for the rest of this:

Gokudera has some minion blood in there somewhere and is determined to be the best chief minion ever when he learns about sparks and how they work.

Yamammoto does not have minion blood in him but he doesn’t really need any, honestly.  He doesn’t really get all the technical mumbo-jumbo that Gokudera & Tsuna talk about but he’s excellent at heavy lifting and at least pretending to be a sane ear for Tsuna when he needs a break from all the crazy.

Tsuna is actually more or less like he is in canon, if more distractible and a bit less... morally strong.

*Tsuna, complaining about Mukuro’s family*: -I mean, why would they even think that would work!  If you’re going to do horrific experiments on someone that will kill them permanently if it doesn’t work and will give them incredible power if it does, you make sure that person is already completely devoted to the cause, instead of just being forced into it.  Brainwashing is not that hard, for crying out loud!

Takashi, blinking and raising his voice slightly in concern: Uh Tsuna-

Tsuna, not missing a beat: and brainwashing is just as horrific of course, I’d never condone to it, but it’s still not hard.

Other experiments & inventions include trying to get lambo to collect enough electricity to charge his phone (his mom talked him out of that one, thankfully), making Takashi’s sword have a lightsaber option, and on one notable occasion making a retaliatory boobytrap around his bed that not even Reborn could get through.

This all happens in fits and spurts though.  Some days he can get through all of his homework in seconds with little to no wrong answers, other times it takes him hours to even solve one, and even then it has only a 20% of being right.

reborn has been adjusting the curriculum accordingly.

Also, the first thing that he did after saving Gokudera (because that, at least, stayed more or less the same) was, while still a little high on flames, make him proper armor so that he wouldn’t blow himself up (Gokudera was so honored he almost cried)

oh and eventually Tsuna finds his grandfather’s transporter, realizes it wasn’t calibrated correctly, and goes back to save him. (but he also ends up in the wrong spot and meets Agatha & crew instead. but that’s another story)

Hana and Touya we’re finally reunited and they couldn’t be happier. Too bad it won’t last.

- 3 months later -

“Hey babe? Um Hana, I think you’re gonna wanna come see this.” Touya waved his roommate over to sit on the couch with him. Their eyes never left the screen as the bright red breaking news letters flashed on the screen.

“Breaking news! Just a few moments ago the USJ was under villain attack by a new found organization who calls themselves The League of Villains. Heroes took action as fast as they could but students from UA’s hero course Class 1-A had to defend themselves while help was on the way. Some of the villains were apprehended but the leaders of the organization were able to get away. Detectives are looking into-“

“Holy shit. How did they get in??” Hana was absolutely baffled. She nervously ran her fingers through her golden locks. Villains were able to get into a secured facility? How was that possible?

“Apparently they have a huge following and a ton of useful quirks. Major respect.” Touya was secretly excited of this new information. There was an underground villain organization and he wanted in. Going dark side was a brilliant idea. With his powerful quirk and motivation, Touya knew he could make it as a villain. The only problem was Hana. He couldn’t leave her.

“That’s insane. I can’t believe it. Heyheyhey! Isn’t that Shouta?” Touya wasn’t paying attention to the screen anymore until Hana started hitting his arm, shaking him from his thoughts.

“W-What?” Touya was shocked and confused. There was no way that was his brother. But then they showed his face, the scar, the hair, the distant look in his eyes. That was definitely his little brother.

“Holy fuck. That’s, yeah that’s, Shouta. I- I can’t believe he is a first year. I didn’t realize how long I had been gone.” Touya had been gone for almost 3 years and he didn’t even think about the fact that his little brother was still growing up. Guilt weighed down his heart as he thought about his other siblings and how after he left, dad probably took his anger out on them.

Touya was sad, but only for a split second. In that split second he felt pity for his siblings, but then that pity and sadness turned into anger and hatred for his father. His hands lit ablaze and he jumped to his feet so that he wouldn’t catch the couch cushions on fire. His blue flame danced up his forearms from his fisted palms but not high enough to catch his T-shirt aflame.

“Toya? Um what’s wrong?” Hana’s timid voice broke him from his hate filled trance. His flame died to smoke but his anger still simmered in the pit of his stomach. This was the moment that changed things. Toya decided on that moment that he was going to find the league of villains and join them, and with their help they would kill his father.

“Sorry. I-I don’t know what happened.” Hana knew that something was up but she didn’t pester him about it. There had always been something brewing in that boy and Hana knew it, it was only a matter of time before it exploded.

— 3 Months later —

“Listen I gotta go. You’ll get it when you get it. Stop bugging me about it.” Touya ended the call on his phone as he approached his apartment door. It had been almost half a year since he showed up in this same exact place but now he had the key and had been living here ever since. Life was good. He finally had a place to stay and could keep an eye on the only person who gave a shit about him.

Hana was truly a blessing in Touya’s life, but she was also a curse in the sense that he felt like he was betraying her. Hana and Touya had known each other since they were toddlers and always had an unspoken connection. Touya couldn’t help but feel guilty that he was going behind his best friends back.

For the past couple of months he had been secretly working with the league of villains. He saw the news reports of the USJ attack and he was interested to say the least. The league liked what he had to offer and accepted him on the spot. They liked his power, his bloodline, and his motivational anger.

There were rumors of a new villain on the loose, one with extreme power, a hero killer. The league was scrambling for clues to find this killer to recruit them.

Two weeks ago the league gave Touya an assignment to try and find the location of the killer, or at least bring in some new recruits. Touya hadn’t found anymore clues to its location and he also hadn’t found anyone he deemed worthy to join the league. He knew they wanted powerful villains and he didnt want to disappoint. He had also been putting it off because he wanted to do something nice for Hana to show his gratitude for her letting him live with her for so long. He had been planning something for a while now.

Hana usually napped around this time so he had planned to come in quietly and make some dinner and he had also gotten a cheesy movie for them to watch. Touya thought it was a nice thing to do and he got her some red roses to top it off. A grin spread across his features when he thought about the look on her face when she would see his surprise.

Touya quietly unlocked the door to their shared apartment and it was strangely quite aside from the tv in the living room. Hana usually slept on the couch when she napped, so the empty spot was a surprise but he didn’t think anything of it. He made his way to the kitchen and quietly set out all the things he was going to use for dinner.

Something was wrong. Touya’s gut was practically doing flips at the thought of something being wrong. He couldn’t shake the feeling either. His nerves were already shot because of the league but he knew this anxiety wasn’t normal. Touya became paranoid and decided he was going to check the apartment anyway, just to ease his nerves.

“Hana? You’re home right?” Touya couldn’t help himself. He knew it would ruin the surprise but he had never felt paranoid like this before. Bedroom, bathroom, guest room, living room, kitchen. Hana wasn’t home. Touya should be glad she’s not because of the surprise he had planned but he still couldn’t shake the feeling that something was wrong. So he called her.

Once.

Twice.

Thrice.

And a fourth time.

No answer.

Panic. Touya was panicking. Pacing the room weaving in and out of doorways. Hana was supposed to be home. She always, always, ALWAYS told him if she was leaving or wasn’t going to be home. He shouldn’t be this scared. She’s fine. She’s fine. He just kept telling himself that but it only slightly eased his nerves.

That’s when he heard it. Her ringtone. Her phone. It was here. Touya kept calling the phone searching for the buzz and the cheesy Halloween jazz she had as her ringtone. It was under the bed in her room. Why was it under the bed?

Touya dropped to his stomach and reached for the device that was almost out of reach. A selfie of their faces lit up the lock screen. Several missed calls from him and a couple text messages from her brother. He unlocked the phone with his thumb print to see if there was any information on why she wasn’t here, but that’s when his phone started ringing.

His screen lit up with the name “Handsy Creep”. Shigaraki was calling. He hadn’t been answering Tomura’s calls for about a week now and didn’t have time for this bullshit now but his gut told him to nswer anyway.

“What the fuck do you want? I’m a little busy.”

“Hey hot shot. Come and get your toy.” Click.

“Oh fuck.”

Sumire: In Summary (Chapter 66)

Let’s Talk About JSHK Manga #2

Warning: !!!Manga spoilers up to chapter 66!!! Duh.

These are my initial thoughts. I’m warning you, they may not be entirely coherent. I wrote this when Eng scanlations weren’t out yet, so I used @etoile_atelier’s Eng summary that they posted on their Insta Story. I’ll update with the scanlations later.

Sorry not sorry for the awful title I’m just punny like that okay.

Summary: Chapter commentary + theories on: Sumire’s relations to Aoi, Sumire and Tsukasa’s seals, and is Sumire and Shinigami a cautionary tale for Hanako and Nene?

First, chapter recap.

Having no expectations at all amplified my emotional reactions to this chapter like 1000%

THE COLORED PAGE. REALLY? REALLY. ANOTHER SUPERNATURAL/HUMAN PAIR?

IT ONLY TOOK FOUR PANELS. FOUR (4)! (Oh, the number of death ... makes sense)

I can’t. I can’t deal. I’m not supposed to sympathize with Goat Man yet.

I mean we’re only four panels into his story smh

Okay so we’re back with Hanako and Nene! And they’re ... somewhere.

And they came across villagers who call them monsters (mononokes)

Honestly why are people so rude to my boy he’s a kiddo trying his best mkay and now ya’ll’re capturing him, the nerve! Y’all captured my daughter in law as well, who’s a literal angel! I will call your mothers about this unacceptable behavior, random villagers.

*ding* [A wild new character appears!]

Ghost girl finally reappears! And yet again, I must ask,

“What is your deal, bruh?”

Sumire took them in, treating them like miserable strays in desperate need of help

And Sumire said something along the lines of taking in the mononokes like she always does

Lmao when these two dumbasses tryna escape

At the very least, Hanako and Nene are trapped somewhere comfortable. And without creepy bugs.

Sumire is so much like Aoi I-???

‘Kay they must be related somehow, right? (More on that later below)

So ... is it official? Are we serving tanuki nabe in hananene events now?

Hanako is even more careful than usual and I gotta say, I’m following his footsteps.

Before I got my stylus out and started translating stuffs, I was so worried when I saw the panels focused on Hakujoudai.

I care about Hakujoudai more than I thought, guys. What a revelation.

Domestic hananene, finally some good freaking food tea.

Darn Hanako spilled the tea (literally, and figuratively)

So they’re not in the Far Shore ... I feel like I was lied to. Why would you lie to your own minions (and us), Shinigami?!

Unless them landing wherever this is wasn’t intentional.

Man, I was excited to see the Far Shore too.

Hanako said they’re still in Shinigami’s boundary, and the place is water-less because they’re in some sort of made up world inside his boundary (that may or may not be based on his memories)

I think it actually is based on his memories, because the first page’s introductory sentence included something along the lines of, “Seven Mysteries’ No. 6′s memories”

So yeah it’s like a mini theater, presumably made by Shinigami so that his boss and his boss’ kannagi couldn’t interfere with his plans. Maybe.

I know the tea might be drugged by Sumire/Shinigami or whatever but-

Your wife helped make that tea, Yugi Amane, show some appreciation!

She looked sad about the tea, too, oh you precious child

Hanako’s sulky, distrustful face tho lmao

Boy was all serious like, “I’ll protect this girl with my afterlife”

Then ZAP *obligatory “Hanako you pervert” comment*

Hanako: Go in there save Yashiro go in there save Yashiro and maybe take a lil peek-

Also Hanako: She’ll hate me.

Hanako: Fuck.

Sumire: Aren’t you two lovers?

Nene: NO.

Sumire:

Nene: ////// D-do we actually look like lovers?

Sumire:

Sumire: Gurl-

*TV beep*

AidaIro: Imma just drop the bomb of the month here~

Sumire: I’m (probably) a yorishiro!

*roll credits*

*cue me screaming*

Sumire? Aoi?

Option A

Aoi and Sumire come from the same bloodline, Sumire’s her ancestor.

Option B

Aoi is Sumire’s reincarnation. So, that means the Sumire we’re seeing isn’t the real Sumire, regardless whether she was made especially for this ‘made up lil’ world inside the boundary’ or the real yorishiro.

Though, would Shinigami actually put his yorishiro somewhere Hanako and Nene could find and destroy her so easily? Suspicious.

So yeah this Sumire, if she really is the real yorishiro, must be a memory apparition like Mitsuba 2.0

White on Black, Red on Black

Now the moment this girl revealed her seal I knew the fandom would point a finger and unanimously scream, Tsukasa!

But ... then again, there’s the matter of different colors between Tsukasa’s seal and the yorishiro seals we’ve seen so far

What if object-yorishiro and person-yorishiro seals have different colors?

Like, white on black seals for object-yorishiro, and red on black seals for person-yorishiro

We actually need to see Sumire’s seal in color to confirm this tho

Sumire, Shinigami, and the Repeating Motive of Tragic Human-Supernatural Relationships in JSHK

Boi. You knew from the first four panels alone that something went wrong with Sumire and Shinigami.

“Promise you’ll stay with me forever.”

Bruh. I can not.

I mean I’m already imagining stuffs that are probably not how their real story’s gonna go down but

It’s definitely tragic, you can smell it. I’ll be entirely shocked if it ain’t tragic

Shinigami’s her betrothed, right?

Why are they only getting married now tho? I assume these two first met ages ago.

Could it be that human Sumire died before they could?

If so ... what if they’re trying to fulfill their wish that never got to happen when Sumire was alive?

What if these two are a cautionary tale for Hanako and Nene?

This might be too far fetched but think about it.

Sumire said, “Falling for things that don’t exist in our world may be deemed a taboo, but you can’t help it if you’re attracted to them,” and it’s the same for Sumire.

According to her, Shinigami is a straitlaced but cute demon. He used to kill for fun (and out of boredom, ‘cause the dude is immortal) but he’s quick to get shy, too.

So. You’ve got a kannagi who’s all too kind to ‘monsters’ (taking in the mononokes, remember?) and try her best to help them.

And a monster with dangerous powers who also have a shy side and would do anything to do what they deem right.

Sounds familiar?

Let’s admit it. The only problem Nene has with liking Hanako is the fact that he’s not her type.

Him being dead has never been the main problem.

In fact, when she does acknowledge his death, it was out of sympathy. She wished he could’ve lived happier. But since he didn’t she sets out to make his afterlife happy, you know, as a good friend.

So I imagine if she does, in fact, accept that she really does like him like that, she’ll be a lot like Sumire, don’t you think?

Nene’s thing is that she’s got compassion for everyone, whether they’re supernaturals or not (unless they mock her legs I guess hahahaha).

She won over Yako (who still hasn’t admitted it), Tsuchigomori, and Shijima with her earnest heart.

On the other hand, Hanako was willing to defy his own principles, his hatred toward the fakeness of Shijima’s world, and perhaps supernatural law or whatever (’cause I doubt it’s ‘legal’ to keep the students trapped in a painting) just because Nene could live happily there.

As we (slowly) uncover Shinigami’s story, Nene also seems to be constantly confronted by others regarding her own feelings. Akane, Aoi, now Sumire.

Also:

“Promise you’ll stay with me forever?”

“Stay by my side until then, okay?”

BAM!

I just broke your hearts. Maybe. Maybe not.

Now Imma go cry.

Toilet-bound Hanako-kun Chapter 18: Mitsuba (Part 1)

Previously: we wrapped up the little mermaid arc. Hanako and Yashiro’s relationship continues to evolve while they figure out where they stand and how they want to move forward. In relation to that, Hanako confirmed that the person he killed was his younger twin brother and he promised to tell Yashiro the whole story in the future. We also met what I assume will be our complete group of antagonists (at least for the time being): Natsuhiko, Sakura and Hanako’s brother. Their dynamic so far seems to be (surprisingly) quite playful and lively, but also Hanako’s brother murdered the puffer fish with such glee that I just  (;;⚆_⚆)

Now onto the next chapter!

Welp, I didn’t intend to take another long break but life happened and I have the attention span of a goldfish. As a way to also make myself stick to a schedule, I’m gonna try my best to do these recaps as regularly as possible. We’ll see how that goes.

This time we open with Kou and his friends talking about a rumor that says that the entrance to the middle school is haunted. I’m guessing this means that this arc will be a little more Kou-centric? Especially since he and Hanako were the ones in the cover of this new volume. I wonder if he’s gonna do his own thing with Hanako and/or Yashiro chiming in like in The Young Exorcist Arc, because that would be cool.

Okay, so apparently the ghost grabs you when you’re changing your shoes. And judging by the ominous “Hey” speech bubble, I’m guessing this rumor is true just like the others, then (not like I was expecting anything else, but still) Also Kou’s friends are very cute, they look like they deserve hair ruffles.

(ﾟдﾟ；) Σ(ﾟДﾟ|||) JFC that’s much more terrifying that I thought it would be. Also!!! does that head angle give anyone else crooked man vibes? no? because it’s giving me some horrible flashbacks to that game.

The chapter cover page here is that image (from ch 16) that has our three babies looking ready to tell some ghost stories. I wonder if it’s something that this site did or if the volume itself repeats this page. Nevertheless, I still love this page, they look very very cute.

The title this time is “Mitsuba”, which sounds like a name and I’m only saying that because I think I might have heard of another character with that name. Then again, my japanese is very limited, so I could be completely wrong. If it IS a name, I’m guessing it’s gonna be our crooked man’s over there since most chapters so far were named after the different supernaturals. 

Moving on, Kou shows the ghost that he decided to mess with the wrong guy by promptly throwing them against the shoe lockers. RIP ghost (again).

Oh! Kou says that the ghost is wearing a school uniform, so he was possibly a student here. Interesting! Now, we don’t know when this boy died, but this means that Hanako isn’t the only ghost that has an attachment to this school. The question then would be why this boy is here specifically and not somewhere else.

OH!!!!!! There he is!! He’s the pink-haired boy, right?? Okay, so, it’s been a while, but I mentioned that I had seen two spoilers when my instagram feed decided to betray me. One was Hanako’s brother and the other was this boy here! I saw him two times in two pieces of fanart with Kou. I didn’t know he would appear so soon! Ohhhhhh that’s exciting! I’m guessing he must be important in some way, right? He looks really cute! and now I feel bad about the crooked man comment (even though his neck really looked kinda funky in that one panel). Are they gonna become friends?? Is Kou gonna expand his friend list to two (2) ghost friends?.......oh, god, I hope Teru doesn’t object to this one too. Well, no, I don’t think he would; he wants to exorcise Hanako because he considers him a danger to the school (and I’m not saying that Hanako doesn’t have the power to hurt others but like…….his brother really seems like the bigger threat right now ngl……...Although, do they even know about him? Because we know that Kou’s grandmother (?) was the one to seal Hanako away and his family knows that he killed “someone”, but do they know about his twin?)

Hey, there’s my other two children! So they are gonna be involved in this arc as well, cool.

OMFG KOU! Sweetie, no! Like, I get it, he’s a ghost that tried to grab you and he could have hurt someone but he looks so helpless, like a scared puppy! I get tying him up but was the duct tape on the face really necessary? I mean, no one else besides the other supernaturals and Yashiro and Teru would have heard him, right? I can’t even be mad at him tho, look at how excited he is about catching a ghost  ಥ‿ಥ    

Anyway, it seems like he went to Hanako to check how he could deal with the ghost. And awwww!! It’s because he doesn’t want to exorcise him, either! He’s really committed to this new path, huh? Good on you, Kou, I’m so proud. 

Hanako gives the boy a long silent look and tells Kou that since the ghost is there probably because of some unfinished business, that means he should help him solve whatever they are. I mean, if countless movies have taught me anything, it is that this plan should probably work.

Omfg Kou just keeps yanking this little ghost boy around. Please be careful with the ghost child. Yashiro shows her concern over the idea (understandable, Kou can be overly enthusiastic and we don’t know anything about this new boy). Hanako says it’ll be fine and he also confirms that the boy is not really dangerous now (the “now” is kinda concerning, though (⚆.⚆) …..but then again, since I saw him and Kou in fanarts, I’m guessing things will turn out okay), and that if things take a turn for the worse, it’s just more work for him because he’s the mediator. Hmmm, that’s quite a solemn look on his face. I think he mentioned this when we met the mokke as Yousei-san, but he wants to avoid killing/getting rid off apparitions whenever possible, right? That’s why having Yashiro as his assistant works in his favour. So that means that he probably doesn’t want to have to “deal” with this ghost, but since that’s the nature of his role, he has no other choice if push comes to shove.

(ALSO, this is a side note but it just hit me: since Hanako doesn’t seem to know this ghost, that means that he’s new? or maybe that he recently acquired the ability to manifest? could it be because of the rumors? like, he was just doing his own thing and suddenly the rumors forced him to haunt the entrance?)

Anyway, we cut back to Kou and ghost boy.

Omfg this poor child. Kou, please untie him before he starts crying.

……………………………...oh my god. I- well, I expected many things but this was not one of them. Like, he has every right to be angry but wow this child has a mouth on him. But also it could be because of the way it’s translated but it’s very funny to me that his insults range from “i hope you drop dead” to “dummy head” pffft.

I-..... He’s really nothing like I expected omg what. Sweetie, breath, trust me when I say Kou would be one of the last people to even think about doing something like that.

OMFG I JUST SCROLLED

Pffffffffft why is that so funny?? I can’t be the only one that  read that in the spongebob narrator voice.

But yeah, it looks like he got it all out of his system. Now Kou is trying to maintain his “cool guy facade” so that ghost boy will respect him (I think it’s gonna take more than that to achieve it, but we’ll see). He also tells him that he comes from a family of exorcists but that backfires spectacularly because the boy basically calls him an otaku. RIP Kou, he really can’t catch a break pffft

Ghost boy keeps being sassy and that makes Kou threaten him with his staff. Good thing he doesn’t know that it’s sealed and that it doesn’t really work.

Hey! His name really is Mitsuma (thank god, I can finally stop calling him ghost boy). He really isn’t the cooperative type, huh? Also what’s that bottom left face omfg Please just let Kou know, he just wants to help.

Like, I know they’re brothers but wow Kou looks so much like Teru right here, scary face and all. But yeah, anyway. A picture? Like, he lost a picture that he treasured? Or maybe he wants to take one? Or he wanted to take a picture with someone else?

Ohhhh, okay. So he was part of the photography club and there was a picture he wanted to take before he died. Or so he thinks. So like, do you lose part of your memories when you die? If so, could it be because of the passage of time or as defense mechanism of some sort? If his camera is still at the club, then that probably means that he was a student here not too long ago.

We cut to Kou helping Mitsuba take some pictures (and being attacked by birds in the process), And from the looks of it, it’s all on purpose and Mitsuba is having way too much fun with the power he has lol Kou, in turn, keeps zapping him with his staff when Mitsuba gets too cocky. Boy, these two already have quite the dynamic, I can’t even imagine how chaotic they’re gonna get in the future.

Kou then points out that Mitsuba has taken pictures of scenery and animals but none of people. Mitsuba admits that pictures of people are better if you want to win awards but then cuts himself off. Hmmm. Does he like to take pictures of nature better because of his artistic style or could there be a deeper meaning behind it? 

Here’s your reminder that I really really love Kou  ಥ‿ಥ He’s such a good boy I just  ಥ‿ಥ  ಥ‿ಥ 

“I’ll pass” PFFFFFFFFFFT these two give me whiplash, I swear. Mitsuba is freaking brutal (and I’m kinda living for it ngl).

Hey, one of Kou’s friends, Yokoo, is back! 

Oh????? Did Mitsuba went to the school recently? Were they in the same year??? Kou didn’t look like he recognized him, so maybe he was in a different class?

Ah, they actually were in the same class during their first year. Is Kou in his last year of middle school? So….they were in the same class two years ago? 

Oh no. Mitsuba died sometime last winter in an accident. It looks like he has a big scar on the back of his neck; if that’s how he died, it seems like it was quite painful. This poor child ;; Yokoo mentions that they weren’t really that close to him (and that’s very clear considering Kou’s reaction). I wonder why Mitsuba didn’t say anything. But then again, Kou didn’t really give him any signals to work with, I guess he just decided to keep quiet.

Oh! It looks like Kou is remembering something now that he’s been reminded. 

oh my god…...look at them…….babies ;;; they look so young ;;;;;; what happen??? why did they stop talking?? just because they were in different classes?

Oh, that’s…….that’s heartbreaking. To desperately reach out, again and again, and to come out empty handed every time. And I feel like it’s such a common fear too, the possibility of being forgotten by everyone you care about. That would be such a hit to your own self-worth. Oh, sweetheart….This poor baby needs so many hugs.
