“You see, Nol and his mask as Yeong-gi is actually an allusion to Jesus Christ himself because when Yeong-gi jumped in the pool at the Christmas party, he rebirthed as Nol similar to how Jesus was reborn”

Kousuke looking down at his own reflection in the toilet. Looking down at this piece of shit person who treated nol terribly because his mother had implemented the idea that he was nothing into his head. Looking down at this piece of shit person who had a part in his old peer’s death. Looking down at this piece of shit person who fell for everything his mother had him do. I was fooled, i was tricked, i am a terrible person because of that. What do i do now? I don’t know what to do now. And i’m scared. As hansuke asks what’s on kousuke’s mind, he says that there’s ‘nothing’. Nothing is on his mind, nol is on his mind. The guilt, the anger, the confusion, they are all on his mind. Did i really spend my entire life resenting someone who didn’t deserve it? Did i really spend my entire life believing someone who sought out to hurt him? As kousuke flushes the toilet, that reflection is no longer clear. That image he had first had of himself becomes distorted. The person i always thought i was isn’t there anymore and it scares me.

recently i have been thinking about how kousuke’s life would be if he didn’t live under the conditions that he does. let’s say yui was never the witch she is, but a mother who wants her child to succeed and do great things. let’s say rand was actually present and fulfilling his role as kousuke’s father. can you imagine how that’d play out?
kousuke is immensely talented and intelligent; i mean, he got into college at the age of 14! he took violin and piano lessons! this kid most definitely gets sooo many awards. can you imagine if yui, rand, and even nol would attend his shows and cheer him on? if yui went on little shopping sprees with kousuke? if rand took kousuke to fashion shows or orchestra concerts? if nol played video games with him? can you imagine that?
it’s crazy to think that these thoughts could have happened if not for yui’s extreme desire for power. but alas, her power has been taken and now she feels the need to regain it back and more.
it sucks that kousuke lives as he does now sigh.. we can only imagine…..

Adventure Time Season 6, Episode 6 Analysis
“Breezy”
TW: rape, depressive ideation
Tumblr media
The birds and the bees; A concept taught to us at a young age in order to be exposed to reproduction and sexual intercourse. Many adolescents dread the idea, but what happens when one attempts to make that idea reality? What happens when sex is used as a coping mechanism?
Throughout the span of Adventure Time season 6 thus far, Finn has undergone many extremities. In the span of just six episodes, Finn has lost his arm, his father, and his mental stability. Any who endure such experiences would surely have a challenging time processing their emotions. In episode 6, season 6 of Adventure Time, Finn is undergoing said challenging process.
In “Breezy”, the episode starts off with Finn getting his severed arm checked out by Doctor Princess. Claiming the flower connected to his limb is droopy due to electrolytes, Doctor Princess ensures to Finn that the flower’s state is due to his deteriorating mental state. Losing an arm? Having your dad be the cause for your lost arm? Situations like these can be detrimental to one’s psyche. Once Doctor Princess tells Finn to have fun, Finn asks Doctor Princess on a date. Being rejected, he goes out to Crab Princess’s party in order to fulfill Doctor Princess’s order of having fun.
On the way to the party, Finn imitates the droopy state of his flower and drags himself to the party all while singing a song:
“I’m lost in the darkness, what will this bring? Autumn descends on me, autumn.”
Finn understands that he is in a dark state of mind; but what he doesn’t understand is how to get out of that dark state. In order to “have fun”, he takes himself to Crab Princess’s party with hopes that he will fill the void. As Finn is following the path ahead of him, a bee with the name of Breezy spots him and his flower.
Moments later, we see Finn and Breezy attend the party. Though Finn attended this event to have fun, we see that he is not enjoying himself at all. As everyone is dancing, Finn is secluded and simply lets life pass by him. With no hopes in enjoying himself, he meets Breezy who offers to assist him in kissing Crab Princess. This offer is supposed to be a win for both of them! Breezy spends more time with Finn’s flower while Finn gets the kiss he has been longing for. But what happens when something you have been looking forward to makes you feel nothing? After Finn kissed Crab Princess, he stated that he still felt nothing; The void is still there and he thinks that kissing more women may assist him in filling said void. When a singular kiss provides him with nothing, surely multiple would make him feel something right?
With that in mind, Finn sets off to kiss more women. As he gains his smooches, Breezy gains more time with Finn’s flower. What seems like a fair deal only turns to a one-sided favor as Finn feels nothing from his experiences with these women. After a few women, Finn finds himself with Frozen Yogurt Princess; Someone who Jake claims to be a clear mixture of Flame Princess and Princess Bubblegum. Following that statement, Jake says that Finn seems to still be hung up on both of them. As a response, Finn breaks out in rage as he states that he is “Hung up on nobody”. But that’s just the thing; Finn IS still hung up on both FP and PB. In Finn’s head, he is already putting him and his flower through enough emotional turmoil; If he admits to himself that he is still hung up on both princesses, then all of the kisses he has gotten thus far would mean that they were distractions. While that may be true, Finn does not want to admit it to himself.
In a rage, Finn and Breezy leave the tree house. Finn explains to Breezy that he is simply following Doctor’s orders and trying to have fun. Losing hope, Finn briefly says how he should just let the flower die. In shock, Breezy rebukes and tells Finn to keep the flower alive. Following that, Breezy mentions how she is a virgin queen bee which is an important plot point for later in the episode. Back on the move, Finn and Breezy bump into bee bullies. These bees harass Breezy because she is not in her hive. In an attempt to protect Breezy, Finn fights back and takes the beating. Breezy, caring so much for the flower attached to Finn, reaches into the bullies’ hive and takes their royal jelly. Once Breezy drank of the royal jelly, she was no longer a virgin queen bee; Her build has obviously grown and she gains powers that she did not have before. Pollen in this sense may mean puberty and the act of getting older. After taking the bullies out of the equation, Breezy confesses to Finn. She tells him that she loves his flower and that she loves him. Breezy’s love for Finn and his flower are so strong that she offers her pollen to Finn. If Finn were to ingest the pollen, then Breezy said that he would become her drone. What is meant by this is that Finn’s virginity would be taken by Breezy. “The birds and the bees”.
Following the confession, Finn apologizes, for he does not feel the same way; nor does he feel anything. Breezy displays her emotion as she cries, stating that she “royal jellied” for him. In a state of anguish, Breezy leaves, to where Finn says that he is “lost in the darkness”.
As the night falls, Finn continues to follow his goal of feeling whole again. At Lumpy Space Princess’s place, Finn is dancing to get his mind off of the previous events. LSP, who is already aware of Finn’s plan, tells him that it is her turn for a kiss. The music stops, and the two kiss. However, a kiss was not the only thing LSP was looking forward to. As the two parted lips, LSP states that “[she] didn’t wait an eternity to take a dip into the kiddy pool” and that she wants to go into “the deep end”. As a response, Finn says that he is “not a good swimmer”. And following that, the scene ends with LSP puckering up with a screen fading to black. LSP had raped Finn.
Finn has been longing to feel something; This is why he kissed princesses all around Ooo. But is this, the feeling of being sexually assaulted what he had been asking for? He did more than just kiss a princess, so why does he still feel numb? After LSP and Finn had finished, Finn covers up his torso with the blanket. Alongside that, he asks his flower if what he did with LSP had helped it which led to a petal falling off the flower’s stem. Finn literally and metaphorically deflowered. Once the petal falls off of the stem, Finn states how he will forget this happened and place this memory into the vault alongside his other repressed emotions. As said previously, Finn’s current issue is repression, and as long as he continues to do that, he will never be at peace with himself. 
While Finn attempts to forget, Breezy returns singing on about how she still has love for Finn. The voice of Breezy awakens Finn, and he begins to sing along. Still slightly delirious, Finn begins to envision someone. Someone beautiful and whom he wishes was singing this song for him. That someone is Princess Bubblegum. When Finn had lost his arm, he had lost everything, including his will to be a hero. Envisioning his first love singing to him to keep fighting and to let love be his guide in continuing forth, Finn comes to a realization; Maybe he truly was hung up on PB this whole time. The first step in improving your mental state is realization and processing. Finn had finally come to the conclusion that he is still fond of PB and that he is hurt by everything. And with that, Finn’s flower begins to grow. And so does his arm.
The process of understanding and coming to terms with your own emotional turmoil is challenging; It is a lot to deal with. However, it is necessary to grow. Finn’s flower had thrived not due to fun, but to acceptance. “Breezy” is an episode that is pivotal to Finn’s growth. Performing sexual acts was never going to make him feel better. The concept of the birds and the bees may be seen as a natural act, but to Finn, it was seen as a means to feel. Evidently this is not the case, and he was only left with more emptiness. But as he began to be honest with himself, he discovered that perhaps these acts may not have been the solution at all. Following this episode, we see Finn begin to be more honest as he continues to face more and more difficult situations. As long as he is aware, then he can be prepared for all that is to come.
WHEW that was a lot! Thank you for reading it all heheh. I just want to point out that I believe it is up to interpretation whether or not LSP truly did rape Finn. I believe she did given all of the virginity metaphors but it's up to the watcher I suppose. Anyways, again thanks for reading! It's been a WHILEEE since I have written an analysis; this is wayyy overdue. Have a good rest of your day :3

I Love Yoo Episode 219 Analysis
Tumblr media
There is so much to say about this episode and I can definitely say with confidence that this is one of my favorite episodes by far. Before I begin to analyze, I do want to talk about how much this episode means to me. As someone who relates to Nol, seeing him finally at ease made me feel like I was capable of being so as well. Quimchee does such a phenomenal job in portraying emotion, and with this episode, Nol’s joy is no exception. The joy that he felt when he saw everyone filled me with joy as well, and I think that that is truly so special. This webtoon is so special to me. There has not been any piece of media that has impacted me as much as I Love Yoo has, and this episode confirmed that this obsession will not be dying any time soon.
Now onto the analyzing!
As I had stated earlier, there is so much to say about this episode. For organization purposes, I will just speak on parts of the episode as they progress. So to start, Shin-ae, Dieter, and Soushi doing this for Nol is truly so heartwarming. We all know that Nol has been through an extremely rough time lately and so this gesture, even if not properly planned, is truly touching. On top of that, we are aware that Nol despises his own birthday. For years, he has been spending it alone. For years, he has been told that his birth in itself was a mistake and according to Rand it literally was cxweinujklqx. And so having people that he genuinely loves be there and reassure him that his life means something to them must impact him greatly.
Moving along, I want to talk about the sunrise. As dawn creeps up upon them, we see these panels of Lil Buddy sleeping. Now I know that this could just be a reach it definitely is, but I felt as if Lil Buddy’s fur color could represent something. I had multiple ideas such as: a Yin Yang allusion, the black and white representing Nol and Shin-ae, and the two colors representing Nol and Yeong-gi. For right now, I want to speak on what this could mean if it were about Nol and Yeong-gi. This entire arc thus far has been about the relationship between Nol and Kousuke, and Nol and himself. With that in mind, I want to bring up this line that Hansuke had said back in episode 175.
Tumblr media
This line was said after Rand had finally shown some sort of concern towards Kousuke. Here, we see the sun already gone with the night following. For Kousuke, this affection is a “dead end”. In contrast, we have Nol receiving affection from his friends and the sun rising with dawn following. This is a new beginning. The sun that sheds onto those panels of Lil Buddy could be a new beginning for Nol. Ultimately Nol and Yeong-gi will have to coexist for Nol to be at his full potential, and I think these panels show that we are leading up to that. Alongside this reach of a statement, I do just want to comment on how comforting these panels of Lil Buddy are. Lil Buddy seems at ease just like everyone else seems to be right now. This is the first time in a while that Nol and Shin-ae specifically have seemed calm. There is no tension anymore, there is only the comfort that they have with each other.
Tumblr media
Speaking of comfort, obviously I have to talk about how Shin-ae and Nol are each other’s comfort. This talk in particular will be really long for obvious reasons so bare with me here. After Nol explains as to why he is not a fan of his birthday, he reaches over to Shin-ae’s ear. This act in itself already speaks volumes. Nol managed to get so close to her scar, her scar that she has been attempting to hide for so long, don’t you guys think that that is so meaningful? Back in episode 180, Nol had made an attempt to get close to her scar and failed. Shin-ae was so adamant on nobody touching her scar.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But that’s exactly it. Nobody is allowed to touch that. The fact is, Nol did do that again, and Nol is that nobody who is allowed to touch it. Now referring back to 219, you can see in Shin-ae’s face that she was startled by Nol’s actions. He actually got close to her scar again but rather than refusing, she accepted it. This is just the first layer of vulnerability that they had achieved within this episode.
One thing that separated these two within the more recent arcs was distance, both literally and figuratively. I made a post a while back about Shadows in I love Yoo, and with my last bit of analysis, I mentioned that Nol attempted to literally be on the same footing as Shin-ae. He walked up the hill, he climbed up the balcony just to be on par with Shin-ae. With every passing episode, these two physically become closer and closer emphasizing their growing relationship. Nol has been closing the distance between them physically and we see this even more within this panel in episode 219.
Tumblr media
This is the second layer of vulnerability that they have achieved. The distance between them is finally closing, and though it may be a little late, it is evident that they want to maintain this distance for as long as they can. Today, Nol is supposed to leave; He is supposed to expand the gap between them yet again. So while they are close, they both want to treasure that closeness until the very last second.
In these last seconds, we hear Christmas music. And as Shin-ae says, “some people dance and sing along to Christmas music. Obviously she is alluding to the time back in episode 206, where Nol states that he and his mother would “start singing along and dancing…” to Christmas music.
Tumblr media
That tradition that Nol had with his mother is very clearly special to him; Though he says that it is a distant memory, it is clear that he cherishes said memory. For Shin-ae to relive that memory that Nol once had with his mother is another level of love. Whether you find that love to be platonic or romantic between them, there is no doubt that Shin-ae and Nol love each other. All of these acts leading up to this episode are acts of love, and I think that this act in particular has been the strongest.
Straying away from Nol and Shin-ae for a bit, I want to analyze the music a bit. In particular, I want to analyze the song, “Silent Night” that plays in the background during this vulnerable moment. Ultimately, this song is about the praise and arrival of Jesus Christ. Why is this significant? Well it’s because throughout this part arc, we see Nol be alluded to Jesus Christ himself. We see it in episode 170 when he emerges from the waters similar to a baptism, and we see it in episode 173 when Nol lays in a fetal position similar to a rebirth in some sense.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The sole purpose of baptisms is to identify and mark with Christ’s death and resurrection. This entire concept is identical to Nol’s situation with Yeong-gi. Back to the song itself, I want to analyze the lyrics. The first lines are “Silent night, holy night” and this could be taken literally and figuratively. It is literally a silent night; Dieter and Soushi are both sleeping, and there is only the sound of Shin-ae’s comforting silence and I guess Soushi’s snoring fejknvjhlbk. The holiness of the night would regard Nol and his identity. The following lyrics go as followed: “All is calm, all is bright”. Again, the night truly is silent and calming. There is nothing but the comfort that they all bring to each other. With the “bright” lyric, I want to bring back the panels with Lil Buddy. There, we see the light of the sun appear onto Lil Buddy’s fur representing a new beginning. This new beginning could also refer to the birth of Nol and of course, the birth of Jesus Christ which is what the song Silent Night is all about. With that in mind, I want to bring up these last lyrics that go: “Radiant beams from Thy holy face, With dawn of redeeming grace, Jesus Lord at thy birth”. This might be getting repetitive sorry cbuxiejcnjl but again, those panels of Lil Buddy exemplify these lyrics perfectly. If Lil Buddy were to be representing Nol in those panels, we could see the “radiant beams” on his face, we could see the “dawn of redeeming grace”, and we could see Jesus be born. The other lyrics within this song do have significance as well, however, I found these lines to hold the most meaning.
Back to the episode itself, we now see Shin-ae and Nol finger dance. Before I analyze anything, I just want to say that this actually made me go crazy oh my goodness. Characters dancing together always has my heart but finger dancing?! That is literally the cutest thing ever. Anywho, I more so want to talk about what happens after the finger dance. Once Nol gets a hold of her finger, he tells Shin-ae to take her shoes off.
Tumblr media
This is the last level of vulnerability between the two within this episode. When Nol was at the party, we notice him without shoes or socks. During that time, we see him begin to be vulnerable. Not only with Shin-ae, but with himself as well. From this, we can determine that lack of clothing, or in this case, shoes, represents vulnerability. With Nol telling that to Shin-ae, it’s almost as if he is telling her to be vulnerable with him. His expression within this panel also shows how serious he is about this matter. He really means it when he says this. I believe I saw someone on reddit say this but another interpretation for this line could be that Nol is telling Shin-ae that he doesn’t want her to run away from him any longer. After everything they have been through, he doesn’t want there to be anymore running. The distance they have now is closed, and he doesn’t want that gap to close ever again.
And that’s all! Man. This episode is seriously so great and I am so ecstatic to see Nol finally be even the slightest bit happy for once. All of them, including Soushi and Dieter, have been through so much together and to see them enjoy each other’s presence one last time makes me so emotional :’-)

Skip and Loafer Ep. 1 Talk
slight manga spoilers ahead
So….. IT’S FINALLY HERE AAAAA!!!
I have been anticipating for this adaptation for the longest time and i am so incredibly glad that it is finally out!! Genuinely, i have no complaints and think this first episode was perfect. One thing i want to talk about in particular is how clear it is that mistumi has had an impact on shima from their inital interaction.
Tumblr media
Shima’s character revolves around seeming selfless and charming; He is the golden boy that everyone wants to befriend. Anyone like that would surely be loved and respected by all. Anyone like that would surely be ahead of everyone else. In this image, we see that shima is physically in front of mitsumi, but we all know that the tables turn within the next few seconds.
Tumblr media
Mitsumi is driven by her dream to be successful. She knows what she wants, and will make sure that she is on the right track to obtain such dream. That drive is what inspires shima since he lacks it himself. This is what puts shima behind mitsumi now. Shima being behind mitsumi is a theme that will continue on until chapter 46 where they finally connect (still not ever that chapter). She inspires him, and the anime made that idea very prevalent with the use of music, voice acting, and scenery.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We see the impact that mitsumi had on shima again in this scene. Shima allows life to just pass by. He is someone that will just go with the flow without having any personal motivation hence why he attended late to the assembly. All of his friends are aware of his rather idle mindset so once shima said he ran and made it to the assembly on time, they knew immediately that something had changed. That “something” was mitsumi. Just from that moment that he had with mitsumi, shima had already changed for the better. That impact mitsumi had on him was so immense that even his friends had recognized it. Mitsumi has become shima’s drive and i am so incredibly happy that the anime portrayed that well with this first episode!

Shadows in I Love Yoo
spoilers up ahead!
Tumblr media
Specifically with nol, we see a lot of instances where he is in the shadows. Shadows obviously signify darkness and in this case, i find it to be the darkness within one’s self. Us the readers, as well as most characters in ily are introduced to nol as yeong-gi. Yeong-gi is the light; while nol is kept in the dark. But as the story progresses, we notice the appearance of nol slowly creeping up. We see it physically as we see nol in the shadows.
This first panel is from episode 19, and the second is from episode 112.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Not only is nol facing the opposite side of yeong-gi, but he is also facing to the left. 100% this is a reach LMFAO but whenever i notice characters facing different directions, i like to point out what direction they are facing. To us who read left to right, going to the right means progression and the left is the opposite. Nol is alone and in the darkness; he is ultimately stuck with a depreciating mental state while everyone seems to progress with their lives.
Before his trial, nol spoke to yu-jing and stated that “if being a good person means sitting back and watching those i care about be wronged, then i don’t want to be a good person”. Once he said that, we see his face be covered by the shadows once again. Nol is the darkness slowly taking over yeong-gi. While nol as a concept isn’t inherintely bad, he is the other side of himself that he has been suppressing for so long. Nol is reaching his anti-hero moment. If people want to paint him as the bad guy, then fine, he will be the bad guy. Being “good” means being helpless and a pushover, and after so many wrongs, he finds that being “good” is not what he wants to be anymore.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After his fallout with his friends nol is, yet again, in the shadows. The light is so close to hitting him but he chooses to be in the dark so that he doesn’t drag anyone else with him.
Tumblr media
With this last instance, nol is in the shadows, but also on a physical lower position than shin-ae. Shin-ae has grown a lot throughout the story, and that growth is what nol wishes to achieve. Within that same chapter, shin-ae speaks positively of nol to min-hyuk. Following those events, we see nol follow shin-ae as she moves upwards. This signifies nol slowly reaching for some sort of growth. These two are mirrors of each other. If shin-ae is capable of growth and contentment, then nol is as well. Him hearing about all the things shin-ae said about him made him believe that he can work towards that growth as well. Lastly, bringing back the talk of direction, we see nol chasing after shin-ae in what appears to be the right. *Right* means progression, *right* means growth. Shin-ae is growing, and nol is finally trying to be on the path that can grow alongside her.
