#I hope that more people getting into the manga will lead to greater spreads of interest in the various minor characters bc there are many

ngl I might get crucified for this but I think the dunmeshi yuri/yaoi discourse was stupid and misrepresenting the ao3 factoids. as of today the most written for mlm ship is labru with 69 (nice) and the next most popular has less then half that at 31. meanwhile farcille has 125 out of the 154 F/F ships in the tag. it is by FAR the most popular ship, with the next two most written about sapphic ships being marcille/izutsumi (9) and kiki/namari (4) and also a couple of x readers? so farcille dominates by far
it seems to me that what's going on is that several mlm ships are in rotation in terms of popularity whereas farcille dominates as the singularly popular wlw ship.
and this doesnt mean that the issues people were bringing up about the general lack of sapphic content and the way fandom treats female characters aren't valid, but idk man when farcille fanart is cropping up daily and getting thousands of notes and has about twice more the amount of fics that the most popular mlm ship on ao3 has its like. I dont think this is really a fandom that proves that point.
I would like to see some more variation in smaller wlw pairs to make up the difference though! I dont think I see any tade/izutsumi fics and we need to change that they could be so cute.
#keeping this bit in a tags bc its a bit spicier but even without farcille actually being by far the most written about ship I dont think#dunmeshi is the best work to make this argument with bc while its got great female characters the main cast is still 3/4 and then 3/5 male#characters when izutsumi comes and she's not very shippable on account of being 17. I wouldn't sit there scratching my head as to why peopl#are writing about the multiple very relevant male characters as if its some mystery. and again farcille is still by far the no 1 ship rn#I hope that more people getting into the manga will lead to greater spreads of interest in the various minor characters bc there are many#very cool ones esp the [REDACTED BIRD NAME] are very prime for cooking up yuri. I just wanna gather up people who are passionate about#sapphic works and talk about ideas and spread the creativity and discussion I want there to be more wlw stuff and I think the only way that#gonna happen is by spreading that passion and love and encouraging other sapphic creators and enjoyers#dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon

I Grade: Lusamine
The first female Big Bad of a Pokemon generation...what the Hell went so wrong here!?
Games: In Sun/Moon, Lusamine is the Big Bad. There is no question about it, there is no adversary higher on the totem pole. And not only that, she is one of, if not the most terrifying villains the franchise has ever presented. Completely out of her mind and detached from reality, self-absorbed to the extreme, prone to raging mood swings, devoid of morality, and worst of all a textbook abusive, narcissistic parent to her children Lillie and Gladion, the president of the Aether Foundation is very easy to fear and loathe. And refreshingly for the franchise at this point, Lusamine doesn’t actually have a huge, destructive, high-stakes goal in mind. There’s a chance for mass destruction in Alola because of what she pulls, but that’s not actually the point. With her, it’s more personal: she wants to enter a world where she can be with what she loves most, the Ultra Beast Nihilego (which her twisted mind deems to be perfect, “beautiful” children that need her as a loving mother), even if it means abandoning her mistreated actual children and hurting or killing the Pokemon closest to them to do it. Clearly, this bitch is another Ghetsis: excessively vile and wholly irredeemable. Right?
......RIGHT?
Yeah, wrong. Bizarrely, Game Freak didn’t seem to actually realize just how badly they were portraying Lusamine, as it wasn’t their intention. In their minds, Lusamine was a tragic villain: a woman broken by the loss of her husband to an Ultra Wormhole experiment gone wrong, becoming possessive over her children in a misguided effort to not lose them too, and then getting addicted to Nihilego toxin while trying to find a way to get her husband back. The toxin messed with her mind, amplified all of her negative qualities such as her possessiveness toward her children to the extreme, and gradually shifted them to be directed solely toward the source of the toxin itself: Nihilego. This is why by the end of the story, Lusamine is treated as redeemable, with Lillie making strides in reconciling with her offscreen and even traveling away from her found family in Alola to go find Lusamine special medical help in Kanto.
But this just failed to come off to the majority of players. Not only is most of the necessary backstory spoken of above buried within the postgame and relayed by sources other than Lusamine herself, but all of the actual scenes in the game with Lusamine do way too good a job hitting close to home for players that have either had or known people who’ve had abusive, narcissistic parents. The child abuse angle is portrayed so strongly that any nuance gets lost in the shuffle. An astonishing number of players don’t even appear to remember Lillie reconciling with and going to help Lusamine at the end, their memory selectively stops at the powerfully-delivered speech from Lillie: “Children are not just THINGS that belong to their parents! We're not made for you to just discard when you get bored with us! That is terrible, Mother! You are terrible!" The idea of Lusamine being redeemed and reconciled with her children is not a happy one to them, and so they ignore it and continue hating her.
This backlash clearly caught Game Freak off guard, and they made an effort to rectify it. In Ultra Sun / Ultra Moon, Lusamine’s trajectory is changed. No longer falling prey to Nihilego toxin, she is still a highly flawed and arguably abusive parent and still commits morally reprehensible acts, but now it’s for the greater good: she wants to stop the looming threat of Necrozma from destroying Alola. Her backstory is mentioned by her in the story, and it becomes clear that she’s truly motivated by her foolish pride, feeling as if defeating Necrozma will validate her self-absorbed self-image of a savior and make up for the fact that she couldn’t save her husband and drove her children away in becoming too protective of them. When she is thrashed by Necrozma and causes it to get loose and create the very threat to Alola she was hoping to prevent, Lusamine undergoes some serious self-reflection and character development for the rest of the game: reconciling with her children, making peace with the fact that she’s never getting her husband back, fixing the harm she had the Aether Foundation cause, and overall having a clear and efficient on-screen redemption.
BUT, unlike with Cyrus in Platinum where issues he had as both a character and as a villain were corrected, here Game Freak was so concerned with correcting Lusamine’s character that they neglected how she was as a villain. Since they removed the main factors that made Lusamine such a memorably terrifying villain in S/M, she now comes off as a retread of Zinnia, the antagonist of OR/AS’s postgame Delta Episode. This in itself still might have not been too bad since she still plays this antagonistic role quite well, but then the game goes and has Lusamine made to look like a putz compared to other villains not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES. First she’s beat down by Necrozma, then she’s sold out by her own underling Faba, and finally she’s held hostage by Giovanni. None of the Big Bads of the previous gens have been treated this way, as is reinforced in Episode RR where they all get to shine, so it happening to the first ever female Big Bad kind of feels like a slap in the face for many.
The IOS game Pokemon Masters continues Game Freak’s course correction by showing us S/M’s Lusamine after she has recovered from Nihilego’s toxin, and we actually get to see her redemption process onscreen as she struggles to be a better, more selfless mother to her children and move beyond the immense guilt she feels for hurting them so badly in the past. Much like in US/UM, she still has her moments of shallowness and narcissism, but the fact that she’s aware of these flaws and is working on self-improvement makes them forgivable.
Lusamine, when taken as a villain in S/M, is great. Lusamine, when taken as a villainous character in US/UM, is great. The problem lies in the fact that there is almost nothing in common between the two depictions of her, which while having an explanation behind it (one is juiced up on Nihilego toxin and the other is not), it still doesn’t change how jarring it feels. On the whole, the score for Lusamine in the core game series is dead middle. A good villain, but she could’ve been so much better if she was properly thought through from the beginning.
Score = 3
Anime: OK, I probably should be angry at how Lusamine is portrayed in the Sun & Moon anime series. She’s a silly, zany, energetic womanchild as opposed to a refined, graceful professional, she isn’t a villain at all since her evildoing in the anime’s Nebby arc is given to Faba and she only becomes an antagonistic Ultra Beast hybrid against her will, and furthermore she is the furthest thing from a depiction of the Gen VII Big Bad in that she is actually a Big Good: as the commander of the Ultra Guardians, she is who Ash and his friends take their orders from in their missions to defend the peace in Alola. I imagine that many people who were fans of Lusamine as a villain took this as an egregious betrayal.
But with that said, I just fucking love her! Because she appears so regularly and has interactions with so many different characters, this is the most fleshed out Lusamine in the franchise, the most real and human-feeling in spite of how comically she often behaves. The tragedy of the loss of her husband and the troubled relationship with her children manages to be kept in tact even without making her a villain, and she naturally has the happiest resolution out of all versions of the character. So despite not being evil, she’s still a fabulous Lusamine.
Score = 3.5
Manga: The chief human antagonist in the Sun/Moon Chapter, Lusamine is very well-portrayed here....for the most part, anyway. She starts off as mostly an adaptation of the S/M games’ version, but Yamamoto takes great pains to draw her a certain way - ridiculously widened eyes and a near perpetual smile on her face - to make it abundantly clear to readers that something is wrong with her, that this isn’t her normal state of mind and she is clearly badly drugged up on something (Nihilego toxin). It’s similar to this manga’s N, except...good. Because the manga can go darker than the games, we actually get to see flashbacks that show her emotional abuse of Lillie under this state, and they are extremely unsettling.
She reaches her peak when her insane goal is revealed: rather than want to go to the world of Nihilego, she’s been so intoxicated that her “love” has spread to all Ultra Beats and she wants to bring them all to Alola in order to make a paradise for them where she can be their mother. And she succeeds, too! But even that isn’t enough for her, and so she sets out to capture fucking Necrozma because she feels like only then will her paradise be complete! This leads to the highlight of her role in this arc: “Mother Beast” Lusamine vs. Necrozma! Seeing the Big Bad of S/M and the Big Bad of US/UM go at it is exhilarating to witness.
But there is one HUGE flaw holding this incarnation of Lusamine back from total greatness: it turns out that her losing her husband, getting hooked on Nihilego toxin, and everything bad that transpires with her...was facilitated by Faba. Lusamine’s personal agency that makes her story more tragic is neutered in favor of making some douchebag man responsible for it. Maybe Kusaka did this because he was worried about the readers being able to accept Lusamine’s redemption otherwise, given the reaction to her in the S/M games, but it was still the wrong call to make. He was doing so well with this Lusamine, combining the best from S/M and US/UM in her, and was building her up as the biggest human antagonist in the arc, the penultimate threat before Necrozma...and he blew it. Oh well, she is still effective in the role he has her play, and I consider this problem to be more of Faba’s than Lusamine’s.
Score = 3.5
TCG: Lusamine debuts with the “Lusamine” card in the Crimson Invasion expansion, staged as the person who is responsible for unleashing Ultra Beasts into Alola. While not to the extent as Lysandre, Lusamine also proved to be troublesome to official tournaments and her card banned from any Expanded format games played in them. The same card was reprinted in the later Ultra Prism set, with Lusamine now being in her notorious Mother Beast form.
In the Lost Thunder set, Lusamine and her Aether Foundation return to cause more trouble, with Lusamine getting a new “Lusamine” card. This time it was a rule on the card that you can only have one of it in your deck, and you can only play it under specific circumstances.
Score = 3
Other: In the Pokemon Evolutions web series, Lusamine shows up in the 2nd episode “The Eclipse”, voiced to perfection by Dawn M. Bennett. She’s adapted from Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon here, abusively sneering at Lillie about how useless she is and how only she can be the savior that Alola needs. This makes it all the more satisfying when she’s reduced to a cowardly wreck following the beatdown Necrozma gives her, while Lillie is actually able to face her fears and stand up to the monster alongside Selene in order to rescue Nebby.
Score = 3
TOTAL FRANCHISE SCORE = 3 out of 5
Lusamine is a good villain in the franchise, but it will likely always be a point of frustration that she couldn’t become a great one. Everything about her on paper seems like it would make for one of the best antagonists we’ve had to date, but it just didn’t stack up that way in execution. Whatever the medium, Lusamine ended her run not looking like the Big Bad of Gen VII, with Necrozma, Giovanni, or even Faba upstaging her in that position. And that is extremely disappointing, given how many people had wanted a female Big Bad for years and were so excited that we finally seemed to have one. But hey, she tried. Kudos to her for that, at least.
BONUS: Which version is my personal favorite?
While on a strictly personal level I love the anime’s version best, when I have to choose which Lusamine works best in the villainous role she was created for then I’d have to go with US/UM’s version. While her constant getting nerfed annoys me, she still is effective as the source of all the conflict in the main story (even Necrozma would not have been the threat it is without Lusamine provoking it). And cutting down on all the craziness and child abuse, no matter how memorably terrifying that made her, did wonders for making her a nuanced foe.

I’m on Vacation #3
[Katekyo Hitman Reborn] (hints of other manga/anime)
Next Chapter | Previous Chapter
I’m on Vacation on AO3
Summary: Tsuna had just saved the world from ending (after going through some epic journey and getting stronger. Maybe he gains psychic powers or some sort of metahuman powers) and he finally, finally returns home after months/years only to be faced with Reborn.
Features: BAMF Tsuna with utterly no fucks to give about anything, beyond the people he cares about…
The Magical Mage AU only some people asked for and that I put too much thought into and ended up with a fanfiction.
XXxxxxXX
Chapter #3: I Think I Hate You
XXxxxxXX
Tsuna doesn't even bother trying to hide that he's leaving.
His next destination is the Hibari Compound and if the murder baby wants to try and sneak in, well more power to him. It's not Tsuna's job to warn him about the Hibari's. Hell, Tsuna didn't even want the baby tutoring him in the first place, so not his problem.
Stepping back onto the streets, Tsuna turns to the right, heading into the older section of town. Even though the Hibari's weren't responsible for the creation of Namimori they were one of the main sponsors that helped the town get built. They had originally funded important infrastructure like the schools, and the library and were still highly influential in Namimori politics. Even to this day, they were known to take control of random assets of Namimori and set them straight, like the current child, who if Tsuna wasn't mistaken was currently trying to shape up the rather poor school system that was Namimori Public Elementary School.
Which reminds him, he should probably bring a gift or something. The Hibari's were very particular about traditions.
He thought about it for all of a minute.
Nah.
Weapon baby was still following him, and even if he was a Sink, he was still probably a decent fighter. Tonfa boy would probably like that. That should be enough of a gift.
Stepping in front of a large, traditional Japanese gate, Tsuna raised his hand, pressing on the intercom by the door. After a second, a voice answered.
"Local Business? Or a contract?"
Tsuna smiled. "Both. I only bring quality entertainment, after all."
A second voice scoffed. No doubt one of the Hibari's were listening in. They were canny enough to know, that his reasons for visiting were important.
"And your follower?"
Tsuna smiled, all teeth and no warmth.
"Do what you want with my stalker. He's my gift to you. Though be careful, he's possibly the closest thing to a gun-wielding Tonberry you're going to get on this side of the world."
There was silence after that comment, probably because they were trying to figure out his comment but in the end, it didn't matter because the gate started to open.
Instead of admitting only him, Tsuna noticed that the gate was open for several moments, no doubt letting in his rather annoying stalker. Boring baby could have been literally anyone and they just let him in through the front door like he was the mailman or something.
Talk about terrible security. Or maybe arrogance.
It made his fingers itchy. If Hiei saw this he would have a conniption.
But, whatever, not his problem.
Walking inside, Tsuna nodded to the one servant waiting for him in the entryway and let them lead him inside. He wasn't stupid enough to attempt to navigate himself through the labyrinth that was known as the Hibari household. Greater men than he have tried and failed. Tsuna would rather not end up hopelessly lost. [1]
He had other things to do. He's got a busy schedule of naps planned for the day and this whole mess is getting in the way of that.
Finally, after what seemed after like ten minutes of walking, the servant stops him in front of a random set of paper doors. The servant opens the doors and stepping through Tsuna takes a seat at the only piece of furniture in the room, a low table with seat cushions. He can sense the older of the Hibari's talking to some other people, likely their minions and it annoys him a little. He impatiently waits for the Hibari's to finish their whole intelligence meeting while glancing at the clock.
He missed breakfast, and besides the small snacks he got at Suzuka's shop, he was still very hungry. Hopefully, they'd finish soon so he can get some real food. And maybe check his emails. He still hadn't had a chance to really look at his inbox since he sent the chain mail update around to all his friends, minions and his frenemies. Heck, if this meeting finished early enough he could probably cut off anything stupid his friends did before it got off the planning stage—
A paper door on the other side of the room opens and four people step through, all wearing traditional kimonos and all various ages. Its was Tonfa boy's parents, tonfa boy himself and that one servant from earlier. The Hibari's took a seat on the opposite side of the table, and the servant served them a collection of foods and drinks. The spread was mostly Japanese tea cakes and sweets but, thankfully none of it made it to his side of the table. Contrary to the random green tea stuff the Hibari's were eating, Tsuna side of the table had western foods and desserts.
Taking a sip of his coke, Tsuna smiled up at the group, all teeth rather than any kind of warmth because now that he was sitting across from the Hibari's he could sense the flames just under their skin. It was close enough to fire magic that he never would have never known the difference had he not known about the existence of flames, but now that he was looking. He could see the difference. Even at this distance from his stalker, his magic was being siphoned off, but the Hibari's flames were unaffected. Their flames were not magic or mana. So by process of elimination that left only flames or some unknown power source.
But knowing his luck it was probably flames.
Frowning at the trio, Tsuna signed.
By the grace of the goddess, he hoped he was wrong.
Gathering his thoughts, he placed his drink back on the table.
"When you applied to be part of the Opion Guild, did you do so with the knowledge that you and your family were lying?" Tsuna said testing them. He wanted to know what they did. Maybe this was just a misunderstanding? Maybe they had assumed that the guild knew about the mess called the 'mafia'? It could be anything.
(Hopefully, anything that did not in any way deal with hiding secrets. Because that would mean so much fucking work. And he did not do work. Because he was still on vacation.)
But even as he looked at the elder two Hibari's sitting across from him. He could feel his hopes dying. Neither of them looked the least bit surprised. At all. [2]
They knew.
After his conversation with Suzuka, and from what Hiruma had said Tsuna had an inkling that something was up. It was one thing if Suzuka had gotten the information late, or it was delayed by trying to get information from the Hibari, but the fact that many weapons had somehow, someway made it passed the Hibari's made him was suspicious. Plus, add in the fact that Suzuka himself didn't know anything about a random Sink in the town and it becomes obvious that something is up with the Hibari's.
They may not be very magical themselves (or if his suspicion was right, at all), but a Sink's very presence affects everyone, from the most powerful mages to the weakest of mages. It would have been obvious either through any magical kinsman or residents of Namimori what was going on and yet they had told no one.
So that left only one answer.
The Hibari's had likely known about both the mafia and the magical world and tried to hide their knowledge from the guild in direct opposition to their oaths to the guild. Tsuna had known the Hibari's tended to regard everything outside their compound with the same fondness as the plague, but this was well past the line.
Slumping on the table, Tsuna put his face into his hands collecting his thoughts depressingly.
Suddenly the whole stalker baby wasn't as much as a problem as it had been ten minutes ago. For one thing, once the whole mafia boss thing fell though the baby would have probably left, but this, this right here was going to take so much work to correct. And the paperwork! The sheer amount of paperwork made him want to flee. He could just imagine it now.
Counting backward from a hundred he tries to think of happier things and ignore the idiots sitting across from him but its hard. Hibari Senior is looking at him like this mess is his fault, while Lady Hibari herself looks like someone outlawed fighting, and tonfa boy looks pouty. Tsuna can feel his temper rising.
Oh hell no.
They don't get to be pissed, they created this mess.
A crack breaks the silence as ice starts to crystallize on the wood around him. The utter gall of this family is just so maddening. Tsuna didn't care if they thought the sun shined out of their arrogant foreheads, they signed the same documents that every single member of the guild did, and they used its services knowing full well that they were lying.
Only just reigning in his temper (he didn't want to freeze his food), Tsuna leveled an angry look at the trio, specifically the parents.
"So you knew and continued to lie. Repeatedly." Tsuna said more sentence than a question. "Well, I hope you like work because you are going to clean it up—"
"The Hibari do not follow orders. We—"
"Are criminals," Tsuna hissed turning the room cold. "As of this moment, you and your kin are exiled from the magical world. I've dealt with troublesome people, and the fact that you lied so brazenly is going to piss off a lot of people. I've already sent off a signal to the gates. You have twelve hours to collect your people and leave behind anything to do the magical world. Failure to do so will force me and the rest of the guild to act. Now, shut up, because we are going to have a talk."
The Hibari patriarch and his wife glared, fingers inches to their weapons trying and failing to intimated him and/or fight him, but Tsuna was so done with their crap.
Tapping on the table, Tsuna activated one of his quick spells. Instantly, bright, blue lines formed on the floor beneath the Hibari's and twisted and transformed into candles, long and pointy floating only inches from the trio, freezing them in place. If they moved even an inch, they would be stabbed. And yet of the three, tonfa boy's are merely an illusion. Even though he's angry, Tsuna keeps to his morals. But just in case, it was probably safe to ensure that none of the Hibari could force him into a fight.
He got a lot to go through and not a whole lot of patience so the faster he can get through all the official stuff and then get to his actual problem the faster he can go home.
"Now—" Tsuna doesn't even get two words in before he's interrupted.
Several paper doors opened from behind him and the army of Hibari bodyguards and clansman appeared armed to the teeth, weapons ready and poised at him. Though Tsuna isn’t sure why he’s so surprised. He should have expected this kind of stubbornness from the Hibari. They personified the kind of temper tantrums he had associated with bratty two-year-olds.
When the Hibari didn't get their way, they default to trying to beat the opposing party.
Tsuna sighed.
How was this his fucking life?
Reaching into his magic Tsuna summons more spells tapping into the magic he hadn't had to use for nearly a year. He calls forth the might of water. Its better for him use something relatively weak, less he accidentally squish someone.
"Ars Nova: Comselh."
Drops of water glittered in the light, growing and warping as it encircles and engulfs all of his attackers, trapping them in giant spheres made of water. However, the water was only in shells, so air would still be present but no one would be able to move. It was kind of like looking at the world's ugliest snow globes. Well, if snow globes normally contained one's enemies and not snow, but Tsuna figures no one would care about that. As long as the Hibari groupies couldn't poke him with sharp, stabby objects, he'd count it a win.
Sadly, even though he had figured out how to contain the Hibari's, he still has to mediate out an actual punishment and do paperwork. Paperwork!
Just the thought alone is enough to make his skin crawl.
Glaring at the trio across from him, trying rather fruitless to deactivate the spell, Tsuna starts banging his head on the table. The pain is anything but helpful to his current situation, but Tsuna knows that if he doesn't do something, he is going to crack. First, he has to deal with undesirable weapon baby, and now he has to do something official-ish to the Hibari Family because they decided that rules were for lesser mortals.
He hates being official. It's such a soul-crushing and paperwork filled existence.
"I hate you all," Tsuna tells them, feeling so done with them. "If you had just said you were criminals or mutants, or goddess-damned aliens I would be okay with some of this and I could just punish you all a little, and then life would continue. But no, Suzuka was offended by the lack of information, and people are going to notice, and this is all your fault." He tells them miserably.
He slumps over the low table and summons the official guild handbook searching through the pages for the list of punishments. It takes him a few minutes to dig through the thick rule book but eventually he gets to the section on punishments. And then pauses. Most of them are pretty gruesome, and others are so strange that Tsuna fidgets just thinking of them.
Like, seriously.
Who thought of an eternity of watching paint dry as punishment?
That was so incredibly demeaning, if not just mind-numbing. Maybe he should bring this up at the next meeting? There was no way this list of punishments was guild-approved. If nothing else, Tsuna was pretty sure this was some kind of prank. They certainly had several pranksters in their guild but—
"I would ask that you release my family." A voice said, as small tiny hands poked into his back.
Tsuna blinked.
Another child?
He was under the impression that the Hibari's only had one child. Unless they lied about that too...
Tsuna had a sinking feeling.
How many more lies could they tell?
The child repeated the words, this time more fiercely. The prodding in his back growing a little more painful.
Tsuna groans. "Fine, whatever. But no one stabs anyone until we solve this mess." He says snapping his fingers, the water spheres fall into puddles on the floor. The candles surrounding the trio also vanish, releasing them, and although the parents are still glaring at him, neither make a move towards him.
Something about the newcomer has stalled their actions.
Perhaps, they dislike spilling blood in front of an innocent minor? Tsuna doesn't know. They certainly never censored themselves on his account, nor in front of tonfa boy. Perhaps, it was some difference in house rules or something...? He didn't know.
The presence behind him moves to his right and takes a seat at the low table. Tsuna's eyes go impossibly wide. He can't believe what he's seeing. One of the servants idly serves the baby some snacks and tea but Tsuna couldn't care less. Because this new reality is mind breaking.
"Is he your kid too?" He blurts out unable to keep himself from stuttering. (The baby chokes on his green tea.)
There were two of them! TWO! He can barely deal with tonfa boy, and now there are two of them.
Why?! Was this some sort of punishment? This is completely unfair.
"I hate you in the weirdest way I've ever hated anyone," Tsuna snaps at the only two adults at the table, he's feeling unfairly beset on all sides. "Having one kid wasn't enough, you had to inflict two of them on me. Two of them."
He takes back any thought of sympathy he had for the pair because this entire mess is utter crap, and he hates everything. He just knows if something happens to the pair, he'll be the one to deal with the kids, and its a job that he feels very unqualified for. Like ten thousand percent under-qualified for, considering his only options are to send tonfa boy to a deserted island, or some other place far, far away just so he doesn't have to deal with them. His options are not looking good.
Thankfully, though Tsuna doesn't have to start trying to figure which deserted island to sent the two children to because tiny Hibari speaks up.
"I apologize for the deception, but I am not their child." The not-child in a red Chinese outfit tells him and suddenly Tsuna can hear the angels singing. So the kid only looks like the violent teenager? That's perfect. Lookalikes are good. He can deal with lookalikes. Yay for doppelgangers!
"I am Fon, a relative of the Hibari family." The baby tells him placing his tea back on the table. "Why have you ignored the rules of hospitality on clan property?" He continues evenly, his voice changing from amused to angry within a few words. Tsuna can't help but be impressed about the change of tone so easily. That kind of skill deserved props. Tsuna only knew a few people who could pull off that kind of masterful language tone, and most of them are old(ish). Adult-ish.
It makes him look at the baby more fiercely. He notices a red pacifier and the strange maturity beyond the baby's years. That's the second time in as many days that he's been faced with some Kokiri like baby.
Perhaps he's like murder baby? The boring baby had a yellow pacifier if he wasn't mistaken. Was it a symbol of something? A club? A fashion choice? He didn't know. Though this makes another point in the older than he looks tally. Tsuna seriously doubts any baby could sit so perfectly or calm in traditional Japanese format. [3]
Munching on some food, Tsuna mulls over his next words thinking carefully.
There were just too many unknown variables and not enough information for him to go on. He was missing something, probably a lot of somethings, but from what he could tell so was the miniature Hibari in front of him.
As a member of the Hibari family, tiny Hibari should have known who he was talking to, and the fact he didn't, was odd, to say the least. His identity should have been obvious, even infamous across the magical world, and yet here tiny Hibari was demanding answers. If it had been any of his friends, the tiny baby would be missing limbs, as very few of the guild's members appreciated arrogance or threats.
Maybe he was just confident in his fighting strength?
But how to test him?
Tapping his finger to his cheek, Tsuna decides to just come out and say what's going on. "Your clan broke the oaths. If anyone else had been present you would be looking at smears instead of time-outs." He said leaning his head on his arm. He's starting to feel sluggish. Even with the snacks on the table, he was still very hungry. The mana usage wasn't helping either. He had probably burned through a couple thousand calories in the last ten minutes.
The baby's eyes narrowed. His hands wrapped tightly around his teacup. "What oaths? Omerta has been kept."
Tsuna shrugs not knowing what this 'Omerta' is and turns to the tonfa kid's parents. From what he can assume, this 'Omerta' was an oath? Maybe a mafia oath? But what for? Pushing that thought to the side, Tsuna decides to tackle the most pressing issue.
"So I wasn't the only one you kept in the dark." He notes looking pointedly at the older Hibari's. "How am I not surprised?" He says turning back to the little red baby. He grabs some more cookies from the table trying to take the edge of his hunger and ponders how to set this whole situation right again.
So somehow he needs to tell the tiny Hibari that his family has effectively sold their entire family's souls for information and now he and his kin are criminals to a world that he didn't know existed. Perfect.
Combing his hand through his hair Tsuna steels himself with the thought of ice cream in his future and forces himself to go on. He can't let this matter continue the way it has. Red baby Hibari needs to know what he's been bargained for, and then he needs to punish the family. Somehow.
Well...
Figuring he'd better get this show on the road, Tsuna starts at the beginning. "You said Omerta, correct?"
Baby Hibari nods but doesn't say anything.
"Than we'll start there," Tsuna said grabbing some more food. "Humans have long held the possibility to be more than mundane. I'm sure you've seen examples of this during your time with..." Tsuna paused, not sure what to call the mess that was supposedly organized crime, before deciding it didn't matter. "...the underworld, but beyond the parlor tricks of criminals, there have long been other groups. Other types of powers."
The baby (Fan? Fran? Farn? What was his name again?) blinks rather shocked at that comment but doesn't interrupt.
"Remember that technique I used to capture the other Hibari and their minions?" Tsuna asks, starting to see disbelief inch into the eyes of the baby. "That wasn't an illusion. That was magic, granted very sophisticated magic, but magic all the same."
The baby frowns. "Not flames?"
Tsuna shakes his head. Lots of people would have things to say if he used any type of flame magic. Lots of pointy, dangerous things.
"Hell no," Tsuna says candidly, "I'm not stupid. Besides flame magic is vastly looked down upon in the Myriad world. It's pretty much a cop-out for wimps."
"Myriad world?"
Tsuna sighed. "Right basics... Okay, kid here's the cliff notes version. The Myriad World is the world of magic. Magic's existence has kept secret from most of humanity through several very important spells, politics, and duck tape. Guilds exist to keep this magic regulated, and set rules in place. Most if not all major governments know of its existence. Except, apparently for the vast majority of whatever your group is. Here's an example." Waving his hand, he ignored the tension coming from the baby and instead summoned several small spheres of the basic magical elements, letting them float to the center of the table.
The little baby's eyes go wide. Tiny Hibari glances to his relatives, obviously looking for some reassurance that he wasn't being fooled, but was startled to see them nod. Tsuna wasn't lying to him. The reality of this new information was mind-blowing. Tiny Hibari is shocked by the news, but he reins it in as he circles back to the present topic.
"You spoke about oaths earlier." The baby notes looking between Tsuna and his relatives. "What oath's have they broken?"
Tsuna sighs and there lies the heart of the problem.
"Your family joined the Opion Guild, a very elite, very powerful guild that allows normal non-magical people to join, with a number of stipulations. Now, normally these stipulations wouldn't apply to your family, but when the Hibari's joined they joined as a group to maximize the amount of influence they could obtain within the Opion Guild." Tsuna pauses for a second to drink some more soda before he finally gets to the heart of the problem. "The leaders of the Hibari's i.e. your relatives signed away your rights as collateral to gain access to valuable items and information."
Fon's eyes went wide. "How?"
Tsuna signed. "They used some fancy seal or something. I'm not really too sure on the paperwork, but I was informed that everyone in the Hibari knew and agreed to the terms." Tsuna snaps his fingers again, and a stack of papers dropped to the table in front of the baby. "Flip to the last page and you'll see what I mean."
Baby Hibari scooped up the paperwork and flipping to the last page saw what Tsuna was talking about. There in black and white was the signature of the older Hibari's and the clan stamp. The baby frowned as he saw the letters and symbols against the white pages. It was exactly as the teen said and going off the fact that it was impossible to replicate clan seal brought an uneasy feeling to the tiny Hibari.
No doubt there was going to be punishment. But what? Was there an option for an appeal? Could they appeal? The baby didn't know anything about this new world until a few minutes ago—
"You can keep that copy," Tsuna told him polishing off the last of the western dishes on the table. "Feel free to browse it. As oath breakers, you can petition to restore rights, but not for six months." He reaches across the table to the Hibari's side to steal some snacks even though he hates Japanese sweets because he is just so hungry.
"Anyways, back on topic. In exchange for using the resources of Opion, the Hibari's had to make two compromises. The first was simple. Anything magical or effecting magical people were to be reported to a specific member of the Opion Guild, and the second was that anything they knew Opion had to know as well." Tsuna leveled a look at the pair. "They did not and that means punishment."
The baby frowned, his eyes like glass. "And the punishment?"
Tsuna groaned. "Give me a second." He flipped through the pages of the punishment section of the guild handbook, thinking. While it was likely true that the list was a prank, technically the punishments were approved, but on the other hand, if any of the more stern guild members found out that the Hibari's were given little more than a slap on the wrist there were going to be some problems. So, he needed to find some medium between the two.
And then a sentence in the guild book caught his eyes and a decision was made.
"So before I tell you all what I've decided, let's review the case, again." Tsuna tells them. "Because we need to be all official... The case is as follows; The Hibari Clan sighed paperwork and gave their oaths to share everything they knew with the Opion Guild in exchange for information and items. From information gathered by guild appointees, the Hibari Clan has broken both sighed oaths."
Tsuna snaps his fingers and several sheets of papers floated in the air above him the oaths highlighted in bright yellow light, growing in size until all at the table could easily read the words present. Tsuna waves his hand again the papers land on the table.
"Now, then with everything from the official script out of the way, here is my ruling."
XXxxxxxXX
Myriad World: or the magical world. Operating in the cracks of the normal world, the Myriad world can be accessed through a number of mediums such as large mirrors, tv's, rivers, lakes, closets and so on. Anything with a large reflective surface/or gateway has and can be used to enter the magical world. Strangely enough, though, non-magical people have been known to fall into the Myriad world.
Basic Magical Elements: Water, Fire, Wind, Earth
Advanced Magical Elements: Light, Darkness, Void, Space, Thunder, Ice, Lava, Wood, Metal
Magic and Flames: So even though Hiruma and Tsuna have been calling flames a weaker form of flame magic, they are not really right or wrong. It will be explained later on in more detail.
[1]: So Tsuna doesn't really focus in on Reborn too much in this chapter, but he's stuck in another section of the house away from all the action because of politics. It's not really important but in case anyone was wondering.
[2] Kyoya was only a part of the meeting his parents forced him to be. He doesn't really know or care too much about everything that's going on, beyond the fact that fighting may take place at any moment.
[3] Fon is not a Sink.
This chapter was an absolute pain to write because I felt I was juggling between Tsuna-is-done and I-am-ready-to-die-Tsuna and it was just not working for me. I think its crap, but I'll let the readers decide.

Gintama Chapter 647 Review
youtube
A man can shed a tear once in a while. Not from sadness, but from hope. I have been aching for a good War Arc in Shounen for a long time, let alone the final arc. Usually, I can only hope the anime would make it better because the manga was lackluster. In here, I don't beg the anime to save it; I simply ask to show it to the world. This magnificent chapter left me in tears.
You know how you see in anime when a person cries because there is a new hope and they can finally break the curse? That's how I felt when I finally got to witness a gratifying moment in the final arc and it's not even the end. It has just about what all other recent Shounen final battle has but not only it's not the last, it was done in the upmost outstanding performance. It's all I wanted.
The fight against Enshou overachieve my expectations. It's not only so thrilling and downright intense battle yet, but it also captures the spirit of the series perfectly when it comes to action sequence. It's vintage Gintama and yet, it continues to leave with great satisfaction. What's even greater is that majority of the battle climax are unique to its own. No battle is copying Takasugi versus Gintoki climax. I'm amazed on how Sorachi can keep it fresh.
This chapter is essentially the final standoff and it was excellent. I was sure that Enshou was done but again, a villain that can't admit defeat is a terrifying foe. I know people hate him, as it intended to be, but in writing perspective, it's fantastic to have someone that is beyond stubborn to submit. What I love is how Takasugi and Enshou are at their final stand; how they're trying to strike first gives a riveting and high tension event. Everyone else fights to give their leader the opening to win the battle. This is just an incredible moment.
The flashback contributes powerfully to the present time. While it's great to see what happened when Shoukaku found Takasugi, the real purpose is the excellent buildup to the final act. To begin with, it emphasizes that Takasugi is in a bad shape, as shown in the last chapter, but the magnitude is properly addressed here. He wasn't even supposed to fight anymore, hence why he can barely stand up now, but he's doing it for his people.
The conversation between him and Takechi is touching. The quote about living longer based on how bad you are is sad when you think about it; it's just how he lived. I love how he knows the magnitude of the war has gotten out of hand, so he wanted Matako to leave. She is technically the co-founder of Kiheitai.
It is surprisingly sweet that he always know that she is not evil enough like them and wants to protect her, let alone with the respect to Bansai. Now I understand why her involvement always sways him to react, like in the last arc. A man who is said to be evil can have a good heart too. Then, it begins the breathtaking sequence of the final standoff.
The monologue is superb and that's because it's the climatic piece of the story of a hero being made. Hero is always needed for those who seek for one and honestly, it's not a bad thing. However, what Sorachi tops it is the idea of a hero and a man. It was building up since this volume began and it was addressed properly. It all ends on a profound message.
Hero is a title that can give hope to the fallen. It's like when you hear "super" you would think that person is beyond powerful than any man. While it doesn't compare in terms of meaning, it compares in terms of what you believe in. Many fictional stories have a hero to count on, but in real life like in a historical war, there is no true hero; there are only men. That's Takasugi.
People fight for him to win; people fight to protect him; people fight to save him. They do so because they love him as whom he is, not what he is. Hero is a dream and we can go beyond that. I can't do the scene justice but the sequence and the monologue made it incredible.
Everyone is out there fighting with everything they got. Enshou breaking his arm to make it able to swing one more time is sickening but that's how intense it is. Takasugi getting back up is breathtaking; I was clinging on to something for him to get back up on time. Instead pulling the usual moment where the hero gets back on time, he actually was going to die. Then, out comes the glorious save.
I was beyond happy to see Matako to save Takasugi and led Enshou to his fall. It perfected the morale of a hero. They didn't see him as a hero, they see as their friend. That was so satisfying to see her to get one stoppage. The woman was saved by the man that led to the beginning of Kiheitai; now, the same woman saved the same man that will continue to lead. Beautiful.
The break must have given a lot of time for Sorachi to create this wonderful presentation. While I was heavily impressed with the last chapter, I'm astounded with this one due to the great mix of monologue and the sequence. It's gratifying to the max. The double page spread is picture perfect; it's a rare moment of how a rarity use of double page can make the moment twice as epic. Takasugi cutting down Enshou is like looking at a masterpiece being displayed.
If that wasn't enough, Utsuro even inputs his thought and it's such a sinister way to say that Enshou is no longer needed. It's the perfect segue to one last set piece: the end of Enshou. He's not dead but that devastating blow along with his left arm getting cut off is the last step before entering his demise. Unless he can start fighting with his feet, it is over. What a fight.
What else can I say? It's really hard not to be highly impressed without looking like a complete fanboy. Can you blame me? It's an outstanding climatic piece of a battle that is going to be really hard to top it. But I believe in the Gorilla. My only problem is my anger will rise significantly at U.S. manga publication. People must read this. People must own this.

Crypto Manga – Comic Book Series to Spread Cryptocurrency Awareness
The first issue of a crypto comic book series called Shonen Crypto has been released. Readers can learn about various aspects of cryptocurrencies as they follow the characters in this manga which aims to be both educational and entertaining. News.Bitcoin.com talked with the comic book’s Editor-in-Chief to learn more.
Also read: Yahoo! Japan Confirms Entrance Into the Crypto Space
Manga Dedicated to Crypto
Shonen Crypto will be published “every three weeks or one month,” creator “Editor-in-Chief Taro” told news.Bitcoin.com. According to him, this is the first comic book series focusing only on cryptocurrencies. “I never heard there are any [other] comic books about crypto,” he claims.
Currently, the series is only available online but Taro hopes that it will get published as physical books in the future. “I would like people to read it at cafes or many crypto events,” he shared. The first issue has partially been translated from Japanese into English at the time of this writing, and there are plans to produce music and music videos about crypto based on this comic as well.
Initially, there were 10 people working on this manga; they created the first issue. Now, there are 20 members performing different roles. “Someone can draw pictures, someone can gather information about shitcoins, someone can create songs, and someone can make videos,” Taro elaborated and explained the reasons for starting the series:
I want everyone to know crypto and its potential. Recently, I feel that the number of active users of crypto is decreasing, and I often hear doubts about crypto.
Citing that “there are still lots of scams” relating to cryptocurrencies, he understands why some people are skeptical but reiterated that “It is not a good situation for crypto.” Therefore, through manga, he hopes to properly introduce crypto and its technology to the masses. Although “there are already lots of articles about crypto,” he noted that they contain “only lots [of] words” and, in Japan, the “masses usually don’t read such articles.”
Six Parts
Bitcoin Senpai.
The first issue has six parts. The first part is called “Crypto Heroes,” which is a story about Bitcoin Senpai who leads other crypto characters in fighting with fiat characters. “The fiat characters of Crypto Heroes are USD, JPY, and EUR,” Taro revealed, adding that there will be a greater variety of characters in the near future.
The second part introduces “what happens in the Bitcoin world (industry)” with a character named “Crypto-kun.” In the first issue, this character teaches about the Mcafee Pump, Mt Gox, the “Bitconnect Scam,” and Zaif’s glitch that allowed users to buy BTC at 0 yen.
The third part is “the introduction of masternodes, which includes the lifecycle of masternodes” and investment advice.
The fourth part is “a gag (comedy) manga” which features a common schoolgirl, Karen, who “learns about Bitcoin with Hakase,” a Japanese word referring to a professor. “He teaches Karen what crypto is and how to trade crypto, but he always makes mistakes and decreases his funds,” the Editor-in-Chief detailed.
The fifth part is a story about two girls studying BTCFX. The sixth part is about Dapps and how to use them on smartphones, Taro conveyed.

New Post has been published on https://vipcryptosignals.com/bitcoin-news/crypto-manga-comic-book-series-to-spread-cryptocurrency-awareness-bitcoin-news/
Crypto Manga - Comic Book Series to Spread Cryptocurrency Awareness - Bitcoin News
The first issue of a crypto comic book series called Shonen Crypto has been released. Readers can learn about various aspects of cryptocurrencies as they follow the characters in this manga which aims to be both educational and entertaining. News.Bitcoin.com talked with the comic book’s Editor-in-Chief to learn more.

Manga Dedicated to Crypto
Shonen Crypto will be published “every three weeks or one month,” creator “Editor-in-Chief Taro” told news.Bitcoin.com. According to him, this is the first comic book series focusing only on cryptocurrencies. “I never heard there are any [other] comic books about crypto,” he claims.
Currently, the series is only available online but Taro hopes that it will get published as physical books in the future. “I would like people to read it at cafes or many crypto events,” he shared. The first issue has partially been translated from Japanese into English at the time of this writing, and there are plans to produce music and music videos about crypto based on this comic as well.
Initially, there were 10 people working on this manga; they created the first issue. Now, there are 20 members performing different roles. “Someone can draw pictures, someone can gather information about shitcoins, someone can create songs, and someone can make videos,” Taro elaborated and explained the reasons for starting the series:
I want everyone to know crypto and its potential. Recently, I feel that the number of active users of crypto is decreasing, and I often hear doubts about crypto.
Citing that “there are still lots of scams” relating to cryptocurrencies, he understands why some people are skeptical but reiterated that “It is not a good situation for crypto.” Therefore, through manga, he hopes to properly introduce crypto and its technology to the masses. Although “there are already lots of articles about crypto,” he noted that they contain “only lots [of] words” and, in Japan, the “masses usually don’t read such articles.”
Six Parts
Bitcoin Senpai.
The first issue has six parts. The first part is called “Crypto Heroes,” which is a story about Bitcoin Senpai who leads other crypto characters in fighting with fiat characters. “The fiat characters of Crypto Heroes are USD, JPY, and EUR,” Taro revealed, adding that there will be a greater variety of characters in the near future.
The second part introduces “what happens in the Bitcoin world (industry)” with a character named “Crypto-kun.” In the first issue, this character teaches about the Mcafee Pump, Mt Gox, the “Bitconnect Scam,” and Zaif’s glitch that allowed users to buy BTC at 0 yen.
The third part is “the introduction of masternodes, which includes the lifecycle of masternodes” and investment advice.
The fourth part is “a gag (comedy) manga” which features a common schoolgirl, Karen, who “learns about Bitcoin with Hakase,” a Japanese word referring to a professor. “He teaches Karen what crypto is and how to trade crypto, but he always makes mistakes and decreases his funds,” the Editor-in-Chief detailed.
The fifth part is a story about two girls studying BTCFX. The sixth part is about Dapps and how to use them on smartphones, Taro conveyed.
