I haven’t posted on tumblr in a while, but since I did some CoE translations I figured I’d repost the links to them here because twitter posts get lost in the void so quickly.
Here is a translation of the guidelines on the official CoE website.
Here is a translation of the official intro blurb + the character profiles from the website.
And here is a translation of the CoM introductions-- there are a couple spoilers for CoE and the interlude, but not huge ones so it should be fine to look at if you haven’t finished the dlc + interlude, unless you’re interested in going in completely blind.

shinarei is really really really good i think.
Tumblr media
cell of empireo routes EDCB and S+, dlc spoilers (fyi, stuff from a part of the dlc that isn't translated yet, nothing super major though)
just an informal post from me. gets a little embarrassing too. gushing about things is a little painful when you are full of love.
but basically, like, i think there exists to be an argument (hypothetical? idk i don't hang out with any fans) that shinarei could fall into pair the spares territory... which is certainly untrue. i just do not think that it has no basis. it's not particularly deep or anything but i do think it is a fits like a glove situ. anyway, at least i'm not the one pairing up family members. (charged statement? tbh not really, my opinion would not change regardless of whether or not an alternative exists... i just do not fw step-whatever ships and i view them as incest. it is my own preference.)
on the relationship between shinano and atou in coe
since the game kind of flip flops on when the rakusou park rabies case happened (though the second half of the game seems to consistently date it around march 2015 so i'll begrudgingly consider that despite it being a very small timeframe), i think that regardless of how long shinano was under atou's care, it is an important relationship in the long run with respects to this post. while shinano was heavily influenced by origin beta seeking origin alpha out it IS a huge point for shinano that one cannot seperate their old and current and future selves so easily so, even as an existence that straddled the line between origin beta and shinano, i think shinano->atou is a highly valid interpretation. i think tina's instinct "to protect", pochi's instinct "to seek out the origin" and shinano's instinct of "atou-san, atou-san" getting all muddled up created some kind of insane peak yandere. i think the main point here is that for most of the game— reiji had gone off so is missing for a good chunk of the game, shinano is present until chapter 5 then disappears, so the two essentially have no real knowledge of each other. atou tells shinano about reiji in the past tense. he tells reiji about shinano being missing in action but there isn't really the gravity in the current situation to elaborate (ironically because origin beta is still running around). also i think it's really funny that atou immediately discounts that shinano could be beta when ibuki brings it up... anyway this is all preamble really.
starting off on the wrong, no, perhaps the worst foot (paw?) possible
so reiji goes yeah imma kidnap you, atou haruki, and be done with it. honestly, who knows how the plot could have gone if shinano had not appeared in this moment... really, whether it was beta pulling him towards alpha or shinano just happened to come across them at the worst moment, it's still an amazing fucking scene. like, one may wring their hands over whether or not this is yandere, but people have called other characters yandere over literal nothing. SO WHATEVER. my post my interpretation. honestly, it's really fucking good. the way shinano is laser focused on atou, atou-san come here, atou-san, atou-san while reiji is on the other side making quips in lieu of atou who is on shock, it's a tense scene that i can't criticize at all really. SHINANO MY GOAT!!!! literally my favorite line in the entire game btw:
Tumblr media
at this point shinano and reiji could not be more diametrically opposed in terms of goal, reiji's being to retrieve atou for sanemitsu and shinano's being an open ended one of "protecting", and who knows how that could even end when at least half of the instinct is coming from what is essentially stem cell rabies and chronic dog brain. it doesn't help they lack context on said stances... in S, this is the end of their adversarial relationship, but if you miss enough flags you basically guarantee that reiji is getting killed by shinano. i think this is actually a really important aspect of shinarei. because..... i really like all the cannibalism fanart... shinano is cute so if he wants to take a chunk out of reiji he is free to do so. i don't have to argue about how cannibalism is inherently homoerotic. IT'S NOT JUST ME! if you see any artists on twitter who dabble in this shit they have definitely drawn it at least once. really, it's becoming rare to have an excuse to draw something like this without going full AU, so fukao... thank you. shinarei is mostly a diabetes ship, but the fact that there is also this macabre side to it is part of the appeal imo. also fulfills the game's "earn your happy ending" element. it's so good~~~~
shinano and reiji are impossibly dorky "but somehow it doesn't cross into otaku cringe" -known shinano fan who excuses anything he says (not me lol why would you think this)
at the time of the dlc, in summer of 2018— its "shinano-shi"!!
how INCREDIBLY dorky!!! i almost didn't pick up on it. you first see it when sanemitsu picks up a note from reiji about atou and shinano visiting— for some reason i assumed it was the formal usage, which was pretty dumb of me to be honest, i genuinely questioned why it'd be like that after three years before i realized it wasn't a stuffy "-shi" but more like how otakus address each other with the nuance of "comrade". to be honest, i've seen the examples of otaku using "-dono" way more often so i didn't realize right away. it's cute not only because it follows the thoroughline of "since S+, shinano and reiji have continued to get along" but also because i feel like this kind of otaku slang has LONG fallen out of favor, it is a stereotype among stereotypes, but reiji is not a normal person at all and i would not be surprised if he just heard it somewhere and picked it up on a whim. i mean, when your dad writes in occult magazines he is probably bumping elbows with some very strange people.
there's not much to discuss in terms of reiji engaging with shinano's hobbies and actively getting into ditasword, but it is cute, cute cute cute. sickeningly cute. how cute can it get?!?!!! this cute:
Tumblr media
tying up loose ends
on the age difference
there's like, a good 4, 5 year age difference?
i guess one thing there would be hand wringing over is the age difference— usually depending on the context, how things shake out is based on your own interpretation... though i think between adults it's kinda "who cares" for me. at any rate, it's not like they're breaching into a relationship right off the bat, imo there is a strong preference for onesided reiji->shinano on my end and there's a good three years until the dlc/interlude/com deadline. just straight up having a massive crush but not being sure of what it means. i like how sanemitsu said that it's nice that reiji made a friend his age after so long, atou is like "he's not though", but they shrug it off and go "well shinano's childish anyway". though i think there is a certain coolness factor in shinano that reiji sees that the others don't see!!!! do you understand!!!! also how is it any different from the classic "crushing on an older girl"!!!!! anyway, shinano's happy to have someone he can talk to about his hobbies aside from akane. anyway 25 vs 29 is a pretty nice diff actually. its kinda who cares.
on the contrast
for all intents on purposes despite being a private detective and getting wrapped up with empyrean, of all of rakuen, i think shinano has the strongest image of a civilian. perhaps even among the entire cast in coe. reiji... is very much not a civilian!!! he lives with mercs and does insane paranormal investigations as a lifestyle!!! there is nothing civilian or normal about that...!!! i think the gap in daily life is very good, and despite everything shinano's suspension of disbelief is probably top tier. he will fit in right away if reiji introduced him to LDL. theodore on suicide watch
shinano deserves to be happy
this series has too many widows and widowers. ENOUGH!!!
element of long distance dating
shinano moves back to tokyo after coe is over (as opposed to him treking to nagoya to seek atou out) and reiji is living in italy. i'm sure reiji is probably going to japan a lot anyway but likeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!like!!!!!!!!
atou hates it
Tumblr media
^olympic gold medalist in homophobia won by a gay man who has been emotionally married to the same guy since middle school, more at 8.
no but really, he really can't with the otaku stuff, now his coworker has turned his step brother into an otaku or made it more apparent, not to mention all the potential PDA, i have to pray for him a bit. well at least he has less to worry about in the "if shinano stands next to me in public for more than 1 second what if people think i'm gay" <-it's ok when rui does it though.
sanemitsu would love it however!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! theodore would probably hate it...though... i think he would wish death on any couple so
addressing potential bias
for reference other pairs i like: ninayou, atourui (reverse is fine.), i respect kanoato but don't engage, hajiyuki, [REDACTED] <-spoilers that dont even exist yet, dont ask me anything about it
strong dislike for shipping reiji with family.

i guess since i got through HR and interlude i’m going to throw a half assed post about who n portman, v the critic (v=er) and code:dante are into this tag, i’ll probably revisit once i’ve reread the dlc. 
if you don’t know who these people are this is spoilers for up to HR and interlude so scroll by if you don’t want to be spoiled
these three show up in the coe artbook (the commentary in the notes is written by n portman) and have thank you notes they wrote at the end. they’re also mentioned in the interlude credits, and are unofficially referred to as the system n.h trio. 
i believe that these people show up in a lot more places than you might think.
as of now i don’t have a particularly coherent analysis so i’m just throwing things together
identities, first. we know v the critic is enein rundall. that’s what the er is for, and one of the shadowy figures (referred to as ‘his majesty’ is specifically called ‘enein’ in interlude. 
the other shadowy figure is zero. lin orie. i’m assuming people are pinning him down as n portman because he streams on castport and one of these mysterious shadowy figures keeps fucking mentioning gaming. Well. 
the third, code:dante, seems to be popularly agreed upon to be sanemitsu but i’ll be honest with you i have no idea where people are getting this from and trying to figure out who was associated with who in interlude is making my head hurt
so i’m just going to post screencaps of what i think are their other appearances
Tumblr media
this seems to imply owl works for the nh trio. strangely, this 
Tumblr media
also implies that the nh trio may not actually be all that closely associated with ldl but like i said i dont fucking want to figure out who’s part of what at this point. 
i think these three from the interlude reports are also the nh trio
Tumblr media
oddly enough this reminds me of what mutei mentions about being erased in hr, and might imply the same is going to happen to those three
Tumblr media
i suspect this is their goal. 
and, related to that, in hermit’s room, mutei mentions ‘the ones in the shadows who brought you here’. at first i thought this was meta commentary on the player but reading this i’m thinking it might be these three again because 
Tumblr media
i really have no idea where i’m going with this other than my theory as of now is that the different factions are trying to ‘save’ the world in different ways (rewriting the story to continue/not letting it continue/etc) and that mutei might not necessarily be lying when he talks about that world completely disappearing for him.
...although what he’s going to do might be something more along the lines of ‘breaking the game’ rather than rewriting the story

i have now watched everything on the coe translation channel (so far anyways, they've stopped at hatsutori's flashback currently)
Tumblr media
(no direct spoilers for the dlc just general thoughts)
((i guess this counts as reading log #6 ?))
HATSUTORI'S FLASHBACK WAS KRAZY? his relationship w utsugi is like unbelievably tragic n i have a feeling its definitely gonna get worse/more intense when i see utsugi's flashback
what the fuck is going on w seodore
the different relationships between guys in this series are so intense god damn. if we get a cell character who's explicitly outwardly undeniably gay i think he would blow up the universe (i say this as if i don't already think utsugi is)
also SANEMITSU N REIJI... THE FATHER-SON DUO OF ALL TIIIIIIME REIJI LOVES HIS DAD SO MUCH. I LUV FAMILY 🥹
i wanna see more of the story so much i can't believe how hard it hooked me. i'm absorbing everything into my own ocs as we speak

❤️pinned post❤️
i'm cullen.
my pronouns are he/him and i am an adult.
ive gone through just about all the canon material, i have the databook also
i post very casually and that is the appeal. you may not find much merit to it. i'm not sure what merit there is to it, either. 𝓁𝑒𝓉'𝓈 𝑒𝓃𝒿𝑜𝓎
i like to make funny posts and drawings!
i do not tag spoilers on this blog unless i am tagging in main tags. only fair.
i've made a tag for my art. all artwork in this tag is mine!
a "best of" tag for the posts on this blog. this filters fluff out if you want to browse the blog quickly and want to gauge how crazy i am (though i update this in batches)
a tag for meta/speculation/theories. this is mostly concerned with the interlude/com, but i reminisce on coe/the dlc too. you can check this if you only want arguably more serious posts.
you can reblog anything! if i don't want it reblogged i will lock reblogs. if you're still not sure, it doesn't hurt to ask ❤️
my favorite characters from coe are shinano and minoru/sanemitsu. my favorite characters from the interlude/com are ryuu and miwa. but i love everyone... 🫶 (<-guy who is clearly hiding his other favorites)
i draw miwa a lot for some reason :/
my favorite ships are ruiharu, ninayou, shinarei and mtaz. i love those four ships a lot~~~ also atokanou fans are my sworn allies. i love you. i think i like miwa/shiyo too, but there's not much info about com so. latest shipping chart i've done
i respect all ships except the incest ones... so like, anything between the fragments and also theodore, anything like atourei or sanerei or whatever... don't do that near me! thanks!
i prefer not to ship theodore with anyone but rumeld... it's just my personal taste... he is fucking sanemitsu though that's undeniable
i talk about the interlude and com a lot. it's just what i am interested in!
i have a tsukkomi-ish sense of humor that people historically do not seem to like because they mistake it for malicious, but its the opposite! i don't hate a character if i make lopsided jokes about them. i just think it is funny. i do not hate any characters. i love all of them. thank you ❤️ (fuck kazue and george tho)
i am very firm in my interpretation of the work so i'm not really looking to argue about it. if you disagree that is your own prerogative and i respect that but don't bring it to me. this blog is just an outlet for my hyperfixation really
all my posts about CoM are largely speculation...! there's very little information so i could be very wrong!! it's just my interpretation... which is likely off base but... honestly we have run out of things to post and i am going insane.
if you have any questions about anything, let me know! but let me give a disclaimer that i can't explain lore stuff with a lot of confidence due to many reasons (including memory issues). questions about dumb stuff i post like art are also good.. 🥺

i noticed few people followed me for coe. currently i don't post art of it right away anymore. if you don't mind spoilers for the dlc and interlude, i post related doodles almost daily on my coe specific sideblog
be sure to read pinned carefully if you go there!!
when the art piles up ill probably post a selection here... maybe?!!!

does that count as coe spoilers. i don’t think it gives much away and i crossed out the part that would actually spoil anything but it Is from fairly late in the dlc. i don’t really want posts like that to be searchable but i can tag that kind of thing if anyone cares.
