10 characters, 10 fandoms (obscure takes & slightly furry edition)

I was tagged by @tangledupblue and @reliablejoukido approximately forever ago! I’ve actually done this meme two times previously, but there are always more characters to talk about (that cannot be true forever, but we’ll say it’s true for now). So let’s get to it!

Also, I don't feel like tagging this one, but please feel free to do this if you want to! I always love to hear about peoples' favorite characters <3

1. Iago (Disney’s Aladdin)

I… I… I don't have any excuses, I just think he’s neat, ok?! There has always been something about the sarcastic talking animal sidekick trope that speaks to me, even though I can’t explain why. He’s just such a angry, self-centered, fun little guy, and he has a real character arc that runs through all of the 90s animated media! Love his role in the TV series, and I also love that he went off with Aladdin’s dad at the end of King of Thieves. For better or worse, he’s my favorite Disney character, period!

2. Bad Bird/Karamaru (Samurai Pizza Cats/Kyatto Ninden Teyandee)

SPC is a show from the mid-90s era of dubs, and it’s generally beloved for taking a rather loose approach to its translation of the original source material. Bad Bird is yet another bird-type henchman, a rival to the "star" character, a bit of a punching bag, and also not-really-all-that-evil. I uh… I guess I have a type? *shifty eyes*

3. Jose Carioca

Oh sh*t I lied, I do actually have ANOTHER favorite Disney character! Who is a bird!! I honestly don’t know why I have such an attachment to Jose. Three Caballeros was something I ONLY watched at my grandma’s house as a wee one, so I do have some very specific childhood memories of it, and little me always thought this charming parrot was the best part. I have never seen anything he featured in that didn’t originate in the 1940s (yeah, I slept on the DuckTales reunion because I don't have cable or Disney+), but I’ve heard he has (had?) his own long-running comic book series in Brazil. I’ve always wanted to see one of those!

I uh… I definitely have a type. Who knew?? ^^;

4. Ryouga Hibiki (Ranma 1/2)

Ok look. I came into Ranma 1/2 in a pretty weird way: looking it up obsessively on the late 90s Internet, falling in love with character descriptions, screenshots and promo art, and reading fanfiction before I was able to watch or read ANY significant portions of the source material. Ryouga was always kind of my favorite back then, and he still is now (even though I have only seen a few of the OVAs and read about half of the manga). He’s just. He’s such an idiot (affectionate). But he's a great rival, a dog person, has Feelings but is incredibly awkward, and generally means well.

5. Ben Wyatt (Parks and Rec)

Live action? GASP! Just… Ben Wyatt is a MOOD. The entire ensemble cast of P&R is amazing, but it’s incredible how much Adam Scott and Rob Lowe brought to the table. I am very normal about Ben, Cones of Dunshire, and the Letters to Cleo shirt (I am not).

6. Lily Aldrin (How I Met Your Mother)

While I will watch Alyson Hannigan act in pretty much anything, HIMYM is a total comfort show for me, and Lily is just *chef’s kiss.* Don’t really have much more to say than that!

7. Lum(?) (Urusei Yatsura)

UY has such a HUGE ensemble cast with tons of interdependencies, you practically can’t isolate one character without at least three others tagging along. You also can’t think too hard about them, because they are all idiots (affectionate) (there is definitely a distinction to make between characterization being good and characterization being deep). Lum is... not my favorite character (that might actually be the manga version of Mendo?), but she's such a dang icon, plus she’s the one I've tried to draw the most, so that… counts?? Much like Ranma 1/2, I also have to factor in all the years I spent wanting to experience UY. Amazingly enough, I've seen more of it than Ranma at this point!

Currently wishing I could watch the reboot too, because the manga characterization/version of events might actually be getting their day in the sun? :D

8. Bentley (Sly Cooper)

Oof. OOF. Why did I do this to myself. The Sly Cooper series is a 3D platforming series from the PS2 era of video games. Penelope from Sly 3 might be my favorite character conceptually (she brings something really fun to the table, and geek girls FTW!), but her being The Fave is hampered by the fact that she only appears in the one game (What's that? Sly 4? Sorry, don't know what you're talking about). Sly 2 is hands-down my favorite entry in the franchise, and while he’s really difficult to play as, Bentley’s development across the original trilogy is… ghhh. IT’S SO GOOD, as are his friendships with Sly and Murray. Bentley!!! (I still love you though Penelope, you got done so dirty).

9. Donatello (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)

I don’t believe I’ve watched/played/read any TMNT property that is younger than a third-grader at this point. But Donnie’s the Smart One, and he is Purple. ‘Nuff said!!

OK so. Birds and smart turtles. We're learning more about what my types are all the time...

10. Daisuke Jigen (Lupin III)

I have not seen much Lupin III. But Jigen is cool <3

(I also like hats).

This is definitely my favorite runner in book 6

#scott pilgrim #scott pilgrim's finest hour #ramona flowers #knives chau #envy adams #gideon graves #dumb stuff #book 4 is still my favorite in terms of comedy #but book 6 definitely has some gold moments from the expressions to this runner etc #4 and 6 are tied for my faves in the series. 4 i like for the character development and humor and ~roxie <3~ #but 6 has the ending which is probably my favorite ending to any series i've ever read or watched. it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside #anyways i reread the entire series in one day because of the anime and my cringe teen hyperfixation phase reawakened like a sleeper agent #i'm riding it out at this point and waiting for it to settle down. or something new and shiny grabs my attention #whichever comes first

[bloodsbane]

so UNFORTUNATELY. i remembered dick figures is a thing that existed. i forgot about... the really racist raccoon........

#banebabbles #okay but the animation still holds up really well this shit's almost 15 years old #fucked up #dumb as bricks tho. god.... of course i liked it as a shit idiot teen

[lazaruspiss]

yeah its kinda depressing that every fandom seems to have some anti shipper niche but its also so fuckin funny sometimes. like im just remembering that rick and morty exists and holy shit was that a show that contained Sensitive Subjects portrayed only for crass amusement and self gratification. and even that show has anti shippers. (adding a cut for those who dont wanna listen to my sleep deprived rambled retellings of my rick & morty memories)

hey do yall know what the pilot was about. bc the og r&m pilot was a back to the future parody where morty has to suck off rick in order for him to have big brain power. like the og r&m has uncensored underage incest blowjobs. also the actual final show has an episode where a character proposes a "multi generational sandwich" 3way. yeah yeah but portraying incest is problematic. do u hear urself. incest doesnt even make the top 10 as far as ricks crimes against humanity go. how do yall live like that

#OH AND SOUTH PARK ANTI SHIPPERS. LIKE HELLO? #what do u expect in fandoms for shows like that. offensive content in the offensive show fandom. fork spotted in the kitchen cmon now #dangan//ronpa is also a very funny fandom choice for antis #theres like a whole subcategory thats specifically against shipping characters who canonically killed the other #like hello. you collect teenagers underwear as part of the relationship mechanics #the game is all about kids being forced to kill each other #SORRY ITS LIKE 1AM FOR ME. my brain in silly mode rn #hifumi haters are so funny (derogatory) bc hes literally tsumugi but nicer and dumber. but they like her and not him bc shes hot anime girl #SORRY I THOUGHT I WAS OUT OF MY DR PHASE. BUT THAT SERIES SHAPED ME AS A TEEN </3 #once a makoto kinnie always a makoto kinnie smh #Hghhhh hifumi is so cute and underappreciated #i gotta find the spin off comic where makoto dresses as a maid to help hifumi sell his comics bc it was cute as hell #hifumi getting fandom stereotyped as a perv is so dumb. hes literally only into anime and also maybe makoto. #hes not a perv hes just a DWEEB get it right smh #everyone was always so mean 2 him and i was like. ok. #and then i actually read his stories and yeah hifumi haters lvl 0 reading comprehension #TOO MANY TAGS. im shutting up now. #sitting my tired ass down and trying to be normal #ramble tag

[blueiight]

i like how the tragedy in ai no kusabi isnt even ‘bury ur gays’ (bc ceres is literally gay capital of tanagura and being gay is normal in their world) but more ‘this machine became a man through the force of his obsessive love that he had for a slumlord he made his slave’.….

#Insane first yaoi to ever have. #deep down i am that dumb teen going heart eyes at kaneto shiozawa’s iason. RIP man i cant watch the new ova bc kaneto shiozawa is IT for me #its 500x funnier as a fan of space anime cuz he usually plays smarmy shady felines but all of a sudden went full on evil seme as iason!!! #dont watch it if u do u would hate me& want me dead #yn.

[emperornero]

i hope one day birdie comes back to youtube and starts animating again. for his age he was very talented. watching the stuff he uploaded before he left for the forced mental health break and his oldest stuff the improvement is incredible. my older art wasnt really influenced by his creations but i always liked his stuff

#i know birdie drama birdie bad lalalala this whole shit boiled down to udiagnosed mentally ill young teens who did some dumb shit #i dont support the fact that he spread personal info of his ex to his friends [ i think that happened and was the main thing ?] and how he #- acted towards some famous youtube animators back then . but he was like what. 14?

[trucksquared]

I know "shounen" and "shoujo" just mean "for young boys" and "for young girls" respectively but don't the genres have different tropes associated with them? Everytime I see someone ask for a "shounen with women" people always respond with "you want shoujo" but aren't shoujos usually more like. romance/drama oriented while shounen is more action oriented. Idk I don't watch a lot of anime

#also I've seen similar arguments presented when people complain about the misogyny/ sexualisation of teen girls in shounen anime #which is just dumb. just because something is targeted towards teenage boys doesn't mean they have to treat female characters like trash #I've never heard of shoujos giving their teenage boys panty shots. so like... skill issue I guess #Idk I don't think it's that hard not to sexualise teenagers. Never been a 40 year old man though so maybe I'm just missing something #txt #on another note people recommending magical girl anime and like. I guess?? But their aesthetics are completely different

[lingeringscars]

shauna has an extreme capacity for gentleness, kindness, and compassion.

#i am just thinking about s1 teen shauna for a minute <33333333 #i get it shauna is horrible (affectionate) #but people being like. she's never displayed motherly tendencies in her life. are quite frankly incorrect #and i get a little tired seeing things that constantly just talk about her callousness or bitterness or jealousy #bc she is all those things!!! but she is also kind! and compassionate! #she called lottie sweetie in 1x06! she tried to help mari when she thought there was something in her clothes! #she was the one protecting and caring for javi! #she has so much tenderness in her heart! #she went to stay with tai bc she didn't like the idea of her being alone. she held tai after the animal attack. #as an adult she welcomed tai back and gave her a place to stay! #shauna does horrible things and is a horrible parent and sometimes a horrible person #but she is also good #and everyone focusing just on how horrible she is can sometimes make me :(((( bc one of the most nuanced chars ever has so many layers #none of the team members are just one thing and that is why i can love all of them (except for the one non team member who is. vague. iykyk #shauna is not evil shauna is traumatized and shauna was a teenager who did DUMB TEENAGE THINGS THAT NEVER SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN SOMEONE KILLED #BUT DID #muse: shauna shipman #meta: shauna shipman #i have to read like 400 pages a week for school so i'm always drowning on top of my sleep schedule being a mess #but know that i am always thinking about her

[antidisneyinc]

do you have a moment to talk about why you found bnha and attack on titan bad?

I'm a hater and I love reading scathing criticisms

tbh idk how you would know of them and not know about their biggest criticisms, they're probably almost as popular on tumblr as actual content for the shows is

snk was fine and dandy as an edgy apocalyptic fantasy thing until it was revealed as a nazi fan narrative which is the worst thing an already macabre and grotesque piece of media can turn out to be

bnha doesn't even have the coherence to be called a story, it's a paper thin mash up of competitive shounen premises like naruto with the popularity of american superheroes. it's weirdly interested in abuse narratives for a manga with the most archetypically bullied character of all time whose treatment is unrecognized by other characters and the story itself, and it even features a throwback pervert character who the author has said is a reflection of him

#the character of bakugo set culture back further than kylo ren could ever hope to #i try not to concern myself w/ dumb shit like teen anime but the popularity of him with gen z is gen zuinely terrifying #fanmail

[youngpettyqueen]

being in the MASH fandom on Tumblr has reminded me that sometimes fandom experiences aren't the worst thing on the planet

#mash #I grew up in the superwholock days on here #the steven universe discourse the rise of the mcu fandom #and before that it was the bronies on other sites and before THAT it was warrior cats forum boards and anime forums #and id sworn off interacting with fandoms entirely cause of it #but I like the MASH fandom on here a lot :) #it probably helps that im 23 and no longer concerned with teen drama in fandoms #I see something dumb I simply block the person and move on #shoutout to the one time I saw someone say something about MASH being queerbaity like noooooo we're not doing this for a 50 year old show #that wasn't at all intentionally queer #I say 'what was the heterosexual reason' for a lot in this show but like. I know it wasn't meant to be intentionally queer #yes I say everyone in the show is queer no I dont think they were deliberately painted that way #its just good fun! #MASH is surprisingly queer but like. im not kidding myself at all here #I think we should take the word queerbait away from a lot of kids these days but thats a post for another time lol #supernatural fandom did immeasurably damage to THAT

[mango-shpango]

guys being a tattoo artist sound so cool and swag and awesome and im like AHHHH im actually excited :>

#ITS STILL A MAYBE CAUSE IM A DUMB TEEN BUT ! it sounds cooler than being an animator JCKSJJGJE

[shizukahaiji]

Kind of on the last post’s topic but as someone who has struggled LIFELONG with a fear of aging, a huge thing I do to make myself look forward to actively aging is limiting myself from doing specific cosplays until I turn a certain age. I am not cosplaying Reni or Kasumi from A3 (EVEN THOUGH I DESPERATELY, DESPERATELY WANT TO) until I turn at least 40. I have a WHOLE list and I know I’ll look incredible but I am specifically forcing myself to wait

#Grateful that I never fall out of interests #Here I am at 24 loving an anime I was obsessed with at 14 and I’m sure at 34 I will find new things to love about it #I KNOW I am never falling out of A3 either #My dumb ass will probably still cosplay teens and early 20 year olds and get berated online for it too though #But alas. I will have fun and be a more free person #🌱💚

[j-psilas]

Will we ever get anything quite like Code Geass again?

I don't think it's possible.

Code Geass is Japanese nationalist propaganda disguised as a global political drama, disguised as a military mecha show, disguised as yaoibait, disguised as a teen melodrama, disguised as a high school romcom, disguised as a Pizza Hut commercial...

...except those layers aren't layers at all, but are instead comingled in a giant snake ball of insanity.

The lead writer, Ichirō Ōkouchi, only ever worked as an episode writer for other shows prior to Code Geass, and never took the helm of an anime series ever again. And it shows. [EDIT: Several people have pointed out his other lead writing credits to me. So I misread Wikipedia—sue me. I maintain that this guy is a better episode writer than he is a lead writer.]

The minute-to-minute pacing is impeccable from a mechanical standpoint, with tension and stakes rising to ever-higher peaks, balanced out by the slow simmers of the b-plot and c-plot. It keeps the viewer on the edge of their seat at all times. Meanwhile, the large-scale plot is the most off-the-wall middle school nonsense I've ever seen, continually surprising the viewer by pulling twists too dumb to have ever have been on their radar—and therefore more effective in terms of raw shock value.

"Greenlight it!" was the mantra of this anime's production. It must have been. It has, in no particular order, all of the following:

Character designs from CLAMP, the foremost yaoi/BL group in Japan at the time—for characters who are only queer insofar as they can bait the audience, and only straight insofar as they can be more misogynist to the female cast.

Speaking of the female cast, hoo boy the fanservice. We've all seen anime girls breast boobily, with many cases more egregious than Code Geass, but there's something special about it happening immediately after—or sometimes in the middle of!—scenes of military conflict and ethnic cleansing.

Pizza Hut product placement everywhere, in every conceivable situation. High-speed chases, light slice-of-life scenes, intimate character moments, all of it. Gotta have Pizza Hut.

The anime-only Pizza Hut mascot, Cheese-kun. He wears a fedora.

The most hilarious approximations of European names—which I would love to see more often, frankly. Names like, I dunno, "Count Schnitzelgrübe zi Blanquezzio."

A depiction of China that is wholly removed from any modern reality, with red-and-gold pagodas, ornamental robes, scheming eunuchs, and a brainwashed child empress. There's a character named General Tsao, like the chicken.

Inappropriate free-form jazz in the soundtrack, intruding at the most unexpected times.

A secret cabal not unlike the Illuminati, run by an immortal shota with magic powers, holding influence all across the world, at the highest levels of government. They matter for approximately three episodes.

An unexpected insert scene of a schoolgirl using the corner of a table to masturbate. She's doing it to thoughts of her crush, the princess Euphemia—because she believes Euphemia to be as racist as she herself is, and that gets her off. This interrupts an unrelated scene of our protagonist faction planning their next move, which then resumes as if uninterrupted.

Said schoolgirl, in a fit of hysteria, threatens to detonate a worse-than-nuclear bomb in the middle of her school. She then goes on to develop an even more destructive version of that bomb, and become a war criminal, in a chain of cause-and-effect stemming from the moment she finds out that Euphemia wasn't actually that racist.

A character called "the Earl of Pudding."

A premise that asks us to believe that the name Lelouch is normal enough that he didn't need to change it when he went into hiding as an ordinary civilian. "No, that's not Prince Strimbleford von Vanquish! That's our classmate, Strimbleford Smith."

The collective unconscious, a la Carl Jung, within which the protagonist fights his villainous father for control over the fate of humankind. After this is over, the anime just keeps going for about ten more episodes.

An episode in which a mech tosses a giant pizza.

A gay yandere sleeper agent who can manipulate the perception of time.

Chess being played very badly, even to the untrained eye. Lelouch frequently checkmates his opponent by moving his king. This goes hand-in-hand with the anime's crock of bad chess symbolism.

A fictional drug that can most succinctly be described as "nostalgia heroin."

Roller-skating mecha in knightly armor, and some of the most sickass mecha fight choreography that I've seen.

I could go on and on, but I think you get the picture. This anime is what the average Westerner in 2006 thought anime was, and it was made in a confluence of factors that cannot be replicated. I've never had so much fun watching something that I found so... insulting. Repugnant. Ridiculous. Baffling. I love it sincerely.

Catch me cosplaying Lloyd Asplund at a con sometime, or maybe even the big gay loser himself, Lelouch vi Britannia.

choi beomgyu — surprise!

[ 🥞 ] where beomgyu, your dumb puppy boyfriend is down whenever you are.

cw : face sitting + riding (?), they were watching one piece, sub!gyu, slapping/smacking, dirty talk, cum. let me know if there's anything I should add because I'm bad at cw's <3

a/n ; not proofread and tumblr didn't save my first draft. i hate life. inspired from a porn video I need to detox my brain and go on an exaggeration of a long walk and fade into the dusk.

eyes focused on the screen as episode 367 played on the tv, nami forcing the chipmunk zombies to tell her where the real treasure is as your eyes got drawn over to beomgyu, sitting on the edge of the bed as he looked down at his phone, scratching his neck and ruffling his hair.

there's only one explanation as to why your eyes are off the anime. he's so fucking sexy.

shifting in the bed, thighs pressed close against one another as your attention kept being off the show and how you wanted to have his perfect too perfect of a face between your legs.

contemplating what to do about your sudden arousal, your mind wandered off to the night of not watching episode 86, and him climbing into the couch with you and muttering with the most horny tone, "if you're down, I'm down. if you're done, I'm done."

oh well.

you sat up, hands playing with the hem of your shirt as you contemplated whether to do this or not.

fuck it.

he's a loser for you, and he's down all the time to the point where he's growing back into his era of teen hormones.

it wasn't long before your top was off your shoulders, and you'd made the headboard into a buttress for your back as you took your pajamas off, eyeing beomgyus back as he played some game.

you were so eager to get bare, yearning to have his mouth all over your thighs. in fact, it was very obvious the moment you entered just how much of a dumb puppy he is when his expression was filled with the fact that he wanted to push you onto the couch, pull your pants down to see the wet patch on your panty that's so obviously there. <3

it's almost laughable that you're bare and your one hell of a horny boyfriend doesn't even know. you huff, a grin plastered as you crawled towards him, causing the bed to jitter.

he was about to turn and look what you're up to, but was soon vehemently shoved into the mattress as you pulled him down, climbing onto his face and holding his hands.

oh he's grinning isn't he.

"oh fuck baby." he mumbled coherently enough as his face was pulled to your clothed pussy like opposites of a magnet. he only made the wet stain in your panties worse, and did so until your clit was traced into the cotton. god really made a sin when he created your boyfriend.

it's almost a crime because he's too too too pretty for his own good. he placed his hands over your thighs and wrapped it around, palming your ass. "lift your hips for me, baby." he mumbled into your pussy. it was whiny, causing you to almost fold and want to do a sixty-nine with him.

you bucked up your hips, and his finger slid your panties to the side as he tilted his head, and his lips latched onto your clit. "h-hah. g-good boy."

he moaned into your pussy, his dick was already pressed up against his pants, his hips bucking into the air and only getting sliding friction; not static. he shook his face, nose bucking up into your cunt, causing your eyes to close shut and lips flatten into a line of pure satisfaction.

his fingers were lurking around your hole, not pressing in but just enough for you to push yourself down onto his body. you let out a moan before you could stop yourself, his tongue swirling around your mess and two fingers right that were contemplating on whether to give you what you want.

"now that's a wet pussy." he mumbled, eyes downward as he stared at your arousal. "h- just fuck me." you mumbled as your fingers scrunched his tshirts fabric between them.

he let go at the tap of your fingers on his forearm, you getting up to turn around— and what a fucking view you got. dumb, dumb beomgyu, laying there as the mute tv's changing lights made his face glisten with your pussy. nothing to be bothered about, he likes it when his face his smothered all up in his favourite girl's pussy.

you gripped on his hair, and your knuckles almost went white when his tongue met your clit. it wasn't fair, his eyes so doe when he looks up at you, his tongue so mean when he eats you out.

"sweet." he kissed your pussy, and thank god you weren't at your apartment, these lewd noises could end up in a discussion with your neighbours. his breath hitting your core, tongue swirling, and yet he tells you he doesn't know how to eat pussy.

"h-hah, beomgyu, you're sure you don't know how to d-do this..?"

"take what I offer, baby." as he licked your nub.

he said something into your pussy that came out so incoherent it was just a vibrating sensation to you. you thought you were almost lost in the moment. almost? you were lost. other hand now on his forehead as you bounced and rubbed yourself all over his face. "y-yeah. take it, boy. fuck. h-hah.." you slapped his forehead to which all he did was laugh at your assumption of how he's the pathetic one, when it's complete antithesis.

his situation wasn't going to be any better than yours anymore when his hips were already thrusting into air whilst he ran out of oxygen. did any of you two care? absolutely not.

starting to get closer and closer, you were already going at it on his face, grinding on his nose and mouth while mumbling all sorts of curse words when he slurped all of you; like the dumb puppy he is.

"h- beom— beom, close. okay?" you said under your breath as his hands were starting to grip his own cock from above his slacks, rubbing himself but not completely, not wholly enough for his own orgasm. and why rub one out when you will be doing it later on anyway?

"on my face, ugh, pleasepleaseplease." he groaned when you did just that, cumming hard. hands pressed into the mattress above his head as you rub yourself sideways onto the homogeneous mixture of your fluids and his spit and saliva as he licked it all up, whatever came near his mouth, he swallowed. "filthy boy, i- ha, hah..." and one good, harsh pat on his head as you grasped his locks again, looking down as you got up.

you laughed at the sight; pretty, shiny beomgyu. literally. a sight that only you and the associates who deny your entry into heaven witness. who cares, he's so pretty.

"good boy." you mumbled as you used his shoulders as support when you plopped down onto the bed.

he opened his eyes, eyelashes fluttering to reveal his pretty iris's. "kiss?"

I could write an entire post on why this is bad. I was bored. i apologize for taking your time. ok actually I have absolutely no idea what came into me when I wrote this but I wrote it so hahahahah my bad I'll delete it and disappear.
