i hope y'all don't mind that i answered these together ! also uhh some of these kinda overlap for me so some of them are combined

1) what's a hot take you have about your f/o? also uh. 2) on what do you disagree with other fans of your f/o?

hmmm i'm not 100% sure if this is that spicy of a take but,, i'd have to say that he is nowhere near as stupid as people make him out to be! yes, he takes a while to register certain things, but that doesn't make him stupid ! plus, some folks forget that it's literally stated in his introduction that he's a top honor student??

3) did you used to ship your f/o with anyone before realizing you wanted to ship them with yourself?

no but like? almost. i'm not even gonna lie ish.imondo has a lot of tropes that i like in ships (i.e. enemies to friends, the switch to first-name basis in the japanese version, opposites, y'know that kinda thing) so i was just like. maybe i'll ship this. someday. any day now. and then one day i realized that i like. liked taka and. it became pretty clear why the ship managed to lack that kinda appeal to me.

5) what’s the dumbest thing you’ve heard about your f/o, either on the internet or irl?

man ok,,, once i heard somebody like. say that the ship between him and mondo was canon?? like not in a joking manner or in a “there's a lot of evidence that hints at it” kinda way but just?? 100% canon? but this wouldn't have been such a Stupid Take if they didn't say that. kodaka may have unintentionally made it canon? like im sorry ship what you want but ?????? how does somebody make a game and unintentionally make a ship completely canon?

7) did your f/o deserve better? and 12) aren't you tired of being nice? this is an excuse to rant. [also uhm. D.R1 chapter 2 nd 3 spoilers in this one !]

ohhhh man yes 100%! he was treated terribly by both other characters and the developers nd it really shows y'know! like,, literally before characters even get to introduce themselves folks are already bashing him ! nd then once he introduces himself he just,, gets called annoying?? even tho all he really did was compliment the protag's name and tell him to work hard?? and then thru-out the game he keeps getting bashed nd then like,, after mondo gets killed off and he literally goes catatonic like. nobody cares?? everybody except like? two characters ignore him?? nd then when he gets killed off everybody continues not to give a shit abt him? and plus when he gets killed off it's right after his character arc started and the game itself completely ignores him except when it relates to the other character who was murdered in that chapter ! anyway uhm 😳 kinda started rambling tho. anyway. he did deserve better <3

9) do you distance yourself from other fans of your f/o or their source?

not at all ! sometimes folks are a bit :/ but i'm far from distanced from the fanbase

#asks #long post #death mention #also like. sometimes i think. maybe chapter 3 isn't as bad as i remember. maybe folks actually do care. #but today i replayed it (y'know like. face ur fears amirite) and. it is that bad #also replaying it? sucked. Would Not Recommend #swearing #taka [romantic f/o]
