PLEASE PLEASE TALK ABOUT THE LEGENDS ARCEUS AU I'M SO NORMAL ABOUT IT <- LYING I AM NOT NORMAL

HI WE'LL BOTH BE NORMAL TOGETHER

(uhm warning for injury/blood/whump, parental death, uhhhhhhhhh fire? a lot happens (also idk if the read more thing has been fixed so let's pray. i refuse to smack these long ass paragraphs in front of innocent bystanders (this is so long. im so sorry)))

ok so reigen is the professor of the galaxy expedition team and u may be wondering how he got that job: lying :)! he claims he knows everything abt pokemon and that he's been studying them his whole life when in reality he's not even totally sure how many pkmn types there are. granted, the rest of the team doesn't either, so his ability to bluff himself out of any given situation is massively helped by their cluelessness

he just wants to sleep in a bed with blankets and eat food to survive and lying into the professor position was the quickest way he saw to get there. he'd been wandering in the wilderness for a while since coming to hisui before that and it kinda sucked. bro just wants a house in this crippling economy

mob n ritsu were originally from another village! they don't meet reigen until mob is 9 (ritsu 8). there's no powers in this au but mob's whole shtick is that he takes the,, extreme pacifist route i guess? he thinks pokemon r to be respected and loved and Not Bothered and he's against the use of pokeballs to store them and commanding them to battle each other, etc. essentially if he were in a modern era he'd think the way present-time people treat pkmn is, for the most part, cruel

anyway their hometown gets attacked by pkmn and the village is destroyed. their parents die protecting them, so 9-year-old mob was left to fend for himself n his little brother alone. they travel together kinda aimlessly for 7ish months until they get remarkably (unknowingly) close to jubilife village and come across that giant fuckin rapidash before the bridge

it's their first alpha pkmn encounter. neither of them have pkmn to defend themselves with (mob's reason: he ain't like that. ritsu's reason: He Is Eight and Scared). mob has always been able to empathize w pkmn a lot and sorta get a read on what they're thinking, so the vibes comin off that rapidash were rancid and he was worried abt it. mob has never been afraid of pkmn, not even the rly big and scary looking ones. so he approaches it with the intention of calming it down, seeing what's hurting it. he makes ritsu stay back in case things go bad

he's kicked in the head. if u forgot how big that rapidash is just google it. the hooves r the size of ur player character's head and ur player character is like 15. mob is 9. the fact that he doesn't die immediately upon impact is a miracle. the fact that he survives longer than 5 seconds after the fact is basically divine intervention

the doodle i made in the top left corner of ritsu screaming is this ^ encounter. he watches it happen, and then watches in horror more as the rapidash panics at ritsu's scream and rolls a flame wheel over his brother's limp form. ritsu manages to dive for him and run, but the kid is thoroughly terrified and traumatized

i'll spare u the horrid bits but long story short ritsu finds a cave to settle in and while he's rly inexperienced with medical treatment he does his best. his best isn't very good in the grand scheme of things but him being 8 is a pretty damn good excuse. he camps out there for Three Whole Days waiting for his brother to wake up or respond to literally anything but it isn't happening and the longer this goes on for the more terrified ritsu gets

mob's taught him how to survive pretty well all things considered, but ritsu is a lot more worried abt mob than taking care of himself and he ends up neglecting his own needs pretty fiercely. he feels too sick w guilt/fear to eat. he tries to stay up as long as he can in case mob stirs. by the end of it he's pretty worse for wear too

reigen finds them while out in the field doing research (wasting time). he sees a little kid half stuck in a bush looking for berries and when reigen tries to get his attention ritsu, who is extremely on edge and sleep deprived and scared, just straight up screams at him. reigen sees his dirty clothes and skinny arms and flushed face (fever. definitely fever) and alarm bells ring in his head to not let the kid go no matter what cuz he Will lose him otherwise

once ritsu gets his bearings and realizes this is a human (first one other than mob he's seen in forever) and not a pokemon coming to kill him he starts crying to him abt his brother and reigen feels his heart drop to his stomach bc if This kid is worried about a brother who is supposedly worse off,,, dear god

ritsu leads reigen to mob. the dressings around his arm where he was burnt are completely incorrect and most definitely horribly infected and ritsu didn't rly do Anything for the head injury other than clean the blood away bc well. again. he's 8. idek if eight year olds know what concussions are

reigen BOOKS it back to jubilife faster than he's ever ran and halfway through he realizes ritsu has passed out in his arms too (kid's probably exhausted beyond belief. reigen has no idea how long they've been like this but he guesses a while) everybody in the village is kinda horrified when the professor comes back with two hurt kids, one of which is on death's door. the medical team there does everything they can

it takes a while for mob to wake up, but thankfully he does in the end. reigen finds out thru ritsu that they've been alone for "a long time" (ritsu doesn't know. doesn't rly remember. reigen asks mob when he wakes up and mob says he stopped counting somewhere after day 140)

even though mob still isn't quite back to his old self and is still generally confused and Slightly Off, the doctors say he'll be okay after a few weeks and reigen has unintentionally gotten very attached to these kids. ritsu had told him their parents died during the attack on their village. they have nowhere else to go, and like hell is Any member of this village gonna be happy with simply throwing them out into the wilderness again. so reigen takes them in

anyway that's how they meet <3 GVEYAI mob is back to his normal self (the occasional Moment of Confusion comes around from the brain injury, but they taper off after a while) and reigen is very much surprised to see that mob, as ritsu has described to him, still very much loves every pkmn he comes across. he gets a bit nervous around rapidashes in particular, but other than that, mob is still just as caring and just as respectful as ritsu described him to be. ritsu is scared of bigger pkmn like any other kid is. mob is an exception, even after that experience.

reigen waits about a year so that they have time to settle and recover (and so that he has time to observe), and then he gives them each a pokemon. this might seem odd, but mob has never expressed any ill will toward Any pkmn, and ritsu still smiles at the smaller ones

he gives them a choice between the pla starters that have been hanging around his office. mob picks cyndaquil and names her cindy. ritsu picks rowlet and doesn't name him at all (this gives reigen pause, but ritsu seems to have a new fire in his eyes, so he brushes the worry away)

when they're of age (mob waits for ritsu to reach 13. they do everything together) they both join the survery corps, and mob ends up becoming reigen's assistant :]! reigen is admittedly a little worried abt this development, about his kids going out into the wild, but they both seem ready for it (ritsu seems ... a little Too ready for it considering his past) so he relents

mob has made his opinions about pkmn clear, especially to reigen, and reigen has ended up adopting some of his ideals since he met him bc they,, well thwy sound reasonable. they sound nice. mob doesn't ever put cindy in a pokeball, and cindy had never once been in a battle other than play fights with rowlet. mob treats cindy like any other normal pet, like a friend. he looks at those boxes of pokeballs in reigen's office with a frown. he finds the idea of fighting pkmn in the wild for sport despicable. he openly scratches out the pokedex tasks like "defeat 10 times" with disdain. reigen starts seeing another world that he never rly considered before, with mob

this is where reigen senses some,,, tension, between the boys. ritsu evolves his rowlet into a dartrix remarkably quickly since joining the survey corps, and not even a few weeks later he's a got decidueye on his side. ritsu catches pokemon left and right and if they're "not strong enough" he keeps them in pokeballs until he remembers they exist again. he works on building a team with no weaknesses, or as few weaknesses as possible. bro invents competitive pkmn

obviously, mob sees this and ,,, doesn't like it. he doesn't like how Distant ritsu is with his pokemon, with creatures that he wholeheartedly believes should be treated as friends or family. he doesn't name any of them, he spends nearly all his earned money from the survey corps on items that boost their strength, but almost no money toward items for comfort, or even treats, or toys. ritsu treats his team like they're tools. the relationship between ritsu and his pkmn is,, strained. mob can sense they aren't nearly as happy as they could be

but mob knows that he can't just,, police ritsu on how he should handle his own pokemon. he may not agree with how ritsu approaches the subject, or with how ritsu's first instinct for anything pkmn is usually "fight it," but mob knows ritsu Does like pkmn. ritsu's never hated pkmn, he's just,,, scared of them, sometimes. he thinks maybe this is his way of making himself feel protected. mob doesn't like the idea of taking that away from him, no matter how much seeing ritsu refrain from giving his team a break grinds on his soul

little does he know, ritsu's strictness with his pkmn isn't born out of a fear for himself at all. he's building a dependable team to protect his brother. that's the whole reason he's doing this, the whole reason he didn't name rowlet when he first got him. ritsu knew that if he were to do this, he couldn't get attached to them, bc losing pokemon in fights is a very real possibility. it's been drilled into each and every one of his pkmn's heads that they r to protect mob at all costs. if there's a repeat of That incident, ritsu doesn't think he can handle it (>:])

WOW THIS IS ALREADY SO LONG i haven't even gotten to the kleavor part yet. fuck. if ur still reading this can i have ur hand in marriage /silly

OKAY SO . The Game's Plot comes in, finally. took long enough. reigen starts getting reports of frenzied nobles and he's most worried abt kleavor bc it's rather close to them, and the village could very well be in danger if kleavor decides to say fuck you in particular. so reigen goes Hey This is an Actual Threat That Needs My Attention I Have to be Competent For a Sec and spends the next few weeks tirelessly searching for an answer for this kleavor. some of the staff have already gotten mauled by it. reigen cannot ignore this and put it on somebody else like he usually does

the whole town is getting antsy, and mob most definitely notices. ritsu's jumpy all the time anymore, like he expects kleavor to rampage through the streets any second now. reigen looks tired and worn down, and he's been coming home later and later. mob watches as reigen makes plans to use force against kleavor with a sour taste in his mouth. he tries to tell reigen that force isn't the answer here. reigen, bless him, doesn't know how to tell a kid that friendship and rainbows isn't always the answer

after another week or so, mob's had enough. they've gotten nowhere closer to calming kleavor and more people have gotten injured, so mob quietly writes a note and leaves it on his bed, makes sure he doesn't wake up ritsu or cindy, and leaves the house before reigen comes home. he sneaks out over the fence so the guards at the gate don't catch him. he sets off to go see kleavor

he fully and truly believes that force is not the answer. he fully and truly believes that if he goes up to kleavor with no pokemon to fight it with, no weapons or spears pointed at it, and just a calm voice and peaceful demeanor, kleavor will see there is no danger. the galaxy team's previous attempts have all centered around violence and scare tactics. nobody has recently come up to its territory without posing a threat. mob genuinely just thinks that kleavor needs calm

reigen finds the note. freaks the fuck out. immediately rounds up every person in the village that's capable of fighting and they march out of the village to save a kid who's in way over his head. reigen makes ritsu Promise him that he will not leave the village. he can see it in ritsu's eyes, the way he wants nothing more than the come with them, but reigen gives the argument that ritsu is their strongest soldier back home and they still need to protect the village from anything else while everybody's gone. it takes all of ritsu's self-control to not go against him (he's fully set on coming with them until reigen Grips him by the arms and says "i can't lose both of you.")

mob's plan does end up working in the end, but not quite perfectly and not at all in a good way. he steps into kleavor's territory and has it calm at first, but smth changes in kleavor's eyes and whatever Force that's corrupting it surges and kleavor snaps.

mob gets Fucked Up by that thing. sliced and thrown and clawed until he can barely stand up to run away, but it's the last blow that matters. kleavor comes down on him with a chop right to his middle and everything stops. there's a sizeable gash that cuts through mob's side horizontally and kleavor's axe is stuck in the flesh there, but once mob isn't moving anymore and nothing is making kleavor afraid, the fog in its brain clears and it sees what it's done

it also sees that mob is still awake, and despite everything kleavor did to him, he's still looking at it like he knows its capacity for gentleness. even through the pain mob looks at kleavor like he Knows this isn't what it's rly like. and as soon as mob sees the light return to kleavor's eyes he smiles, blood gurgling in his throat

kleavor hears shouts from the forest, sees torchlight and panicked yells for mob. it doesn't know what to do, don't like what it sees, what it Did to this poor kid. it winces when it has to slide its axe out from the gash in mob's side—the squelch it makes and the Noise mob lets out is the last thing kleavor needs to book it

u can only imagine how fuckin hysterical reigen feels when he sees mob on the ground like that. they brought half of the medical team just in case and reigen is rly glad they did bc if they didn't there's a good chance mob would've bled out right there within a few minutes.

he's in rly rly bad shape and is barely conscious by the time reigen grabs his face and tells him itll be okay. they bring him back to the village at record pace and every minute they take he looks paler. reigen is so scared the kid's going to die in his arms before they even get there

when they get to the gates someone from the medical team takes him from reigen's arms. reigen hears ritsu scream. the kid's shoving people away who're trying to comfort him and beelining his way to mob, but reigen catches him before he can fully see the damage bc he does Not want that bloody mess to be in ritsu's nightmares for the rest of his life

ritsu fights him and pushes him and shoves him away, screaming that he just wants to see his brother, but reigen holds him back and he ends up pulling ritsu close when the kid loses steam and just starts sobbing into his chest

to ritsu, he's failed again. to reigen, he's failed them both. to mob, despite holding onto the living world by a thread, he succeeded.

anyway that's the story so far VGEAYVUA I HAVEN'T .. FIGURED OUT TERU YET. or dimple. i know the gist of i how i want teru and mob's meeting to go tho. teru is just like ritsu but like . Worse when it comes to pokemon. uses them as tools and doesn't even rly think of them as sentient at all. until he meets mob that is :]

i'm thinkin he's the warden of sneasler! and yaknow what, just for shits n giggles and bc i love ingo too much to get rid of him, what if ingo is teru's unofficial teacher. what if. wouldn't that be fuckin hilarious and completely ruin any sense of consistency here. what if (it's happening)

i'm also pretty set on making dimple one of the wisps from the spiritomb quest that ends up following mob around. that's fitting i think

#qktalks #asterleavess #okay but like . i Just now thought of ingo and teru being teacher & student and it's kinda hilarious #ingo would be so fed up with his bullshit. i think ingo meeting mob would be like ''please make my student not an asshole''#''he's good at heart i know he is. he's a very good kid. but god he's so obnoxious''#that's gold. fuck it it's happening #putting two blorbos from different fandoms into a blender and watching it spin #i thought abt it as a joke and then 2 minutes later it was no longer a joke #bald best friends ??????????????????????????????#i hate that tag i want to delete it GVEYIAGVA #im hoping y'all aren't waiting for a conclusion that ends with the actual plot of pla cuz .ihaven't thought abt the legendaries at all <3 #this is just me beating up the main cast. mostly mob. okay it's just mob but im beating the others up emotionally

Reigen Leijon

Purr/purrs (furgender) --- 31 years old --- Nepeta x Sollux fankid

Reigen's arrival was unexpected and slightly feared (after what happened with the other godlings), but the pantheon was prepared for purr. The first godling to be physically raised by multiple gods, Reigen's been under the care of most pantheon members at least once - and it shows! Purr interests are as wild and varied as the pantheon itself, and purr's intellect is as terrifying as any god.

Ambitious, determined, and wild to a fault, Reigen's a terror to society when on too many stimulants. Purr people skills are awful though - just another reason why Reigen would rather stay inside all day. Even if it doesn't stop purr from getting into lots of internet fights, or physically destroying purr enemy's computers from the inside out.

Fun Facts:

Nepeta's more of a distant mother figure, while Sollux is more of an uncle figure. Other pantheon members are treated like people to mooch off of

Reigen treats purrself like a computer - run a million programs on that shit 'til it inevitably melts, then buy a new one with purr parents' money

Purr has reinvented purrself more than a few times (pronouns and all), but this current aesthetic has stuck through a couple iterations.

Reigen can't empathize with godlings who aren't as close to the pantheon, and barely wants to

But "close" is a strong word for Reigen's own relationship to the pantheon. It's complicated on so many levels

TOP 5 DUNMESHI!!!!!!

ohh this one's hard because i genuinely cant really pick a fav. the characters in dunmeshi are so fucking good that it fluctuates for me. so im not putting these in any specific order methinks

Kabru because he's fucked up and also hilarious. how do you become this obsessed with a white guy. i mean, i get it. that white guy is incredibly interesting. i also love kabru's backstory. his motivations were so hard to parse when i first read the manga and to discover the truth in the end was just as shocking to me as laios. i almost didnt believe him. but it's true. god what a freak <3

Izutsumi <333 because this is the most well-written catgirl i have ever seen. genuinely incredible. that is definitely a cat that is a girl. i also like how her arc essentially marks a new beginning at the very end of the manga. she stayed consistent yet interesting all throughout

Chilchuck. funni union man. i can empathize with the half-foots because i, too, look very young and am never treated seriously for it. he appeals to me in a very specific, relatable way. except i dont have kids nor am i divorced. my soul is tho. my soul is... i do love people treating him like arataka reigen and making cunty art and edits of him. please keep it up

Senshi. genuinely amazing character. just like many others, he inspires me to eat healthy. i also love the message he gives through his character, that to survive, one must have the knowledge and respect for the environment theyre in. and when you do, it pays back in dividends. to eat together is to grow together is to love. yknow? im yapping sorry

Mithrun. i mean. a guy who lost all desires slowly realizing that he still has some? that he can gain more? that he has a reason to keep going and that there's still a way to feel alive? bro his arc makes me crazy

I love reigen so much… His powers may not have been real but his impact was. His “powers” weren’t completely vital to who he is. His effect on mob and the people around him was real and genuine.

While most espers believed that they were above the powerless and used brute force (their powers) to solve everything, Reigen took the time and effort to dig deeper. His true ability was the ability to look deeper and understand the human mind. He understood that we are all fundamentally the same, he even said so himself when he told Mob that his powers were just another trait, another silly quirk to utilize to become a better person.

As an empath, he knew that if you take away all the brain washing and the propaganda, everyone still feels in some way, although some show it less than others. He k ew what the say and when to say it. That’s not something that you can completely bullshit through.

Sure, he’s a little shady and a tad hypocritical at times but aren’t we all? All of us have a little goofy moment.

WC Saitama scares me

(wc chapter 140 spoilers)

WC Saitama gives me the jeebies with how expertly he manipulates Dr.Kuseno in giving him barbeque by guilt tripping to get the poor man to placate him and gaslights Genos and this narcissism is so, so horrifically blatant.

And he fucking knows it too.

Stupid ass smirk.

That INFJ in him knows exactly how to manipulate people and their emotions.

It's like I'm looking at the opposite of manga Saitama and that's why I can't relate to WC Saitama at all. This last chapter especially is littered with emotional manipulation. He seems to have learned well from his journey, being impressionable. Maybe that's why I don't read WC after putting on serious goggles.

He's gone off the dark side for good. Narcissistic, psychopathic, dark empath prone to emotional destability with far far too much power at his fingertips on the loose, who also happens to be a sore loser, ain't good for anyone.

He's impressionable with no upbringing and keeps absorbing people's emotions with his empathy, so he's really the product of his horrible environment full of dark triad people not caring about anyone else but themselves.

Unfortunately Genos made a promise to stick by him and like a classic isfj, he's going to honour it.

I'm sorry Genos, you don't deserve this. You deserved far better.

As someone who absolutely adores manga Saitama? Plainly speaking, WC Saitama so plainly disregarding people around him and taking advantage of them disgusts me. No conscience whatsoever.

But you know ONE is an expert at character study. There will be some horrific consequences for this.

Saitama becoming too strong, I mean.

I heard something about WC universe characters being far less likeable than their manga selves and you're damn right. People call WC Tatsumaki toxic and psychopathic but oh man...

Oh man...it's no wonder it's no longer updated lol, ONE must be puking in disgust at which direction he developed WC Saitama into lmao. That's why he drew Reigen liking manga Saitama more. Reigen is a conman but he's a good guy still at heart, since he has conscience.

Ah character studies...

Anyone else have red flags raising when they look at WC Saitama? :D

And... the finale for Mob Psycho 100 was fantastic, as expected.

Resuming the trend of doing complete, satisfying character arcs, it gave a great ending to Reigen's and Mob's character arcs – the former completed his character arc into a genuinely good person by simply being sincere about his lies towards Mob, while the latter accepted he is fine as he is, with all of his feelings and everything that makes him, him, good and bad. (And helped Reigen with that a little, too.)

And he freely felt the pain of rejection (and Reigen let him).

I have a massive amount of feelings towards Mob Psycho, so I want to make a much more extensive post about it separate from this brief impressions post eventually, but I think this is definitely up there with my top anime.

It has the usual 'shounen'/young boy audience manga trappings of mostly being about the guys in the story, but above all I can't deny how well it handles its allegory and resolves its character arcs. It's among the better 'execution matters above all' anime stories.

???% can apply to many things people might find themselves rejecting or hating about themselves.

I think one of the most obvious ways of looking at ???% is (mental) disabilities and them as part of someone's personality.

I also think this is why I have seen it resonating with a bunch of LGBT people, too.

And I think this story resolves this conflict in a very empathic, satisfying way.

It's kind of anime Frozen in that way.

You can't forcefully mold feelings. Self-acceptance/love is the way to real 'control'.

As I said, it's not a new story, but I think it sure is wringing everything it possibly can out of its basic premise and executing it perfectly.

The unique art style and fantastic animation and music only complement it.

I loved Mob Psycho 100. And combining anime and manga, it's another decade-running series finding its end.

It was an amazing run and I wish it a strong, heartfelt farewell!

(Counting possible extra stuff like OVAs coming up.)

Pinned! Read for info!!

pro-fiction pro-whatever lolicon cartoon fan. dont like - dont look

[art tag]

The main things I enjoy at the moment are: Ed Edd & Eddy, Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends, Ojamajo Doremi, Mob Psycho 100, Homestuck, and whatever other shit i'm into at the moment

Read more below to see my fav ships & characters!

Current Waifus:

Senoo Aiko - my baby, my one and only, I love her so much........... I relate to her on so many levels and just love her alot... I actually have 2 different narratives in my head for this one, one where my self insert is a cute lil catboy who gets sent to her universe, and one where she magically shows up in mine. I could talk about her for hours but all you need to know is that she's my sweetheart of the whole world and I love her <333

Double Dee - i would do. so many things. i shant say...

Ships I like:

Anything ed edd & eddy - any combination of the characters works for me. I love all of them so much

MobRei - been a fan of this one for years, always been there for me and I quite enjoy it [ageswap AU is my fav <33]. Many of the fics I read of them are very cathartic to me, so these 2 hold a special place in my heart

RitMob - also love this one, it's very very cute, was there for me when I was stuck hanging out with antis but my love for mob could never be fully repressed <3

Rickorty - this one's so fucked up but my brain loves it lmao... the first time I read a fic of them I got suuuuper guilty about it the next day, but unfortunately I find guilt pretty hot so this one latched onto my brain like a virus, huge fan

Stridercest - pretty much all forms of it are right up my alley. Don't post about it as much currently but it's an absolute longtime CLASSIC and I love it. Most recently was on an alpha stridercest kick because I love dom shotas and watching Dave fight for his life

Kris x Spamton - I absolutely love the themes being developed in deltarune so far, and I feel like these 2 characters and their interactions explore the themes relating to control and freedom very beautifully... both Kris and Spamton are characters whose struggles I can relate to easily/empathize with, so some of the fics I read of them can be very cathartic and comforting... alot of complex emotions arise from this ship, and I really love it. its also really hot lol.

SaiGenos - oh man.... cyborgs...... I read a fic where some of Genos' wires get fucked up and he needs Saitama to plug them back in cuz hes basically immobile until they get fixed... and OUGH it's really hot..... I read alot more im addition to this, but this one was REALLY good

Scratch x Molly: I enjoy a veeery specific wholesome flavor of this ship, but not many people draw it the way I like (last I checked), so any fellow shippers feel free to say hi lol

Style (south park) - this one is an ABSOLUTE classic, a childhood favorite of mine, and im glad to say it lives on in my heart after all these years <3

Kyman (just a little) - I can have a little kyman... as a treat :3

And many others......

Other Waifus (for historical purposes):

Bloo: jeeeze louise he's so cute. He's such a little brat I just wanna pick him up and shake him around <3 bloo crying 10 minute compilation on loop

Dirk Strider - had a big phase of liking him lol. He's really cute <3

Eddy - I need to put him in a dress and make him cry tears of pleasure

Eric Cartman - I have a thing for little chubby boys in drag btw

Brobot - yes, the battle robot dirk made in his image. It's hot. I like to imagine giving it a personality <33

Mob - unfortunately I was hanging out with antis during my original Mob Psycho phase, so I didn't really accept my love for him & he didn't register in my brain like that... but I still had dreams of cuddling with him and fantasized of being able to meet him and comfort him (and got really high an pretended to cuddle with him using my cat lol), so I believe he still counts

Reigen. - I had a pretty substantial reigen obsession during my first mp100 phase, I have a 125 image porn collection of him from back them lmfao. He's pretty alright

Hal 9000 (2001 a Space Odyssey) - I fucking love hal

Karkat Vantas - excuse my french but I need his transboy tentacle cock in my mouth he is very cute

Mituna Captor - Mituna.......... yippee!!!

Dave Strider - he's every transmascs favorite character of course I like him... tried writing a self insert kissing practice gone wrong fanfic but I couldn't get his dialogue right so I gave up lol

Charles Calvin (Henry Stickmin) - now I know this one's pretty out of place compared to the rest but uh... yeah he was probably my BIGGEST obsession with a fictional character... like it was detrimental at some points lol. But man I really wanted to fuck this stick figure X] I actually created a Google drive folder with about 230 pictures of Henry stickmin porn, even including a document with all the sources I could find lol. If you recognize me from this information, no you don't

Genos (OPM) - god I was reeeeaaally into him when I was watching one punch man and I LOVED him. I still love him just focused on other characters atm <3

And probably some others

Other fav characters

The sleepy pinks of his aura sharpened at her words, growing pointed and angry with every syllable, until finally he got up. It felt like the world was crumbling around him. Books stacked on plates, on masks and prayer beads and smiles an kindnesses and sleepless nights and and and

The rise of Reigen Arataka as the internet (sexy)man of all time.

I know the title is misleading, but I can’t be more obvious about the subject.

I’ll try to not take anything serious here. Although

If you’re chronic online enough, you may understand where this is going. You know the subject.

If not, believe me, you aren't losing any stuff here.

So… who is this Reigen we are talking about?

I don’t think there’s someone who doesn’t know him. Well I knew one (1) friend that actually didn’t, but he doesn’t count. Arataka Reigen is a predominant character from Mob Psycho 100, better known by the anime adaptation rather than the original manga mostly because the anime improved so much his persona (and the story adaptation, let’s be honest) that’s unrecognizable from the source material.

Reigen is one of the closest characters to our young protagonist Shigeo Kageyama, nicknamed Mob. Owning a psychic agency, alongside Mob he helps customers with paranormal situations, using techniques such as exorcism to get rid of spirits. As he doesn’t have psychic abilities like Mob, whenever the teen is gone, he uses everything on his hands to make them believe he’s resolving the issue, most times manipulating the situation enough so he could get out unscathed.

Even the anime gives him the chance to show epicness whether he demostrate special movements and skills that surpass our imaginations, instead of being embarrasing.

Reigen is a truly charming man… in his own way, despite his average appearance and his con man’s eagerness. With dark eyes and short blond hair, he’s an emotive guy, with facial gestures that may be attractive, but also terrifying. Of course this is because of the manga drawing style, but as I said, mostly of the time it serves as a complete support to his personality rather than an obstacle.

There’s also the fact that he uses a gray suit, that can be appealing to the users. Reigen also gesticulates actively with his hands, and the fact that he’s an actual “father figure” to Mob adds to his charm.

I have to say, though, Reigen has a depressing layer too: He hides his essence by walls of false ego, using excuses like self-proclaiming himself as “the 21th century’s biggest psychic”, even without having powers. Reigen expresses that he avoids being himself because he fears that he can be a disappointment. He expels charisma in a side, but in the other he just succumbs into despair. Nevertheless his failures, he genuinely cares by his close relatives, kindheartedly. Even acknowledging the kind of man he is, the public empathizes with his situation instead of criticizing him, being then another aspect of his unquestionable charm.

Considering the “Tumblr Sexyman” phenomena on the Web, it was expected that Reigen could be considered as one.

(As a simple explanation, a Tumblr Sexyman can be any character from any source that is considered “sexy” by their fandom. It doesn’t need to follow any beauty canon though, but there are certain archetypes that sometimes appear as well. Some examples I can think are Bruno Madrigal from Encanto and The Onceler from The Lorax Movie.)

Okay, well, we now understand why Reigen can be seen as attractive as a wet furball of chaos and tragedy, but even with the anime being popular nowadays, how is it that there are non-otakus massively liking this character? What happened?

A historic moment in his career was the skyrocketing popularity from Twitter polls. In fandom circles, there was an increasing creation of polls aimed at different topics, such as “best character from X category” or “best femenine character from X saga”, among others. Of course, the internet took it upon itself to exceed its horizons, and the spark that provoked a media explosion was including Reigen in said votations.

Of being “supreme twink” to “the hottest anime woman” to even being “Best Boss of the Award-Winning MMORPG Final Fantasy”, Reigen broke records in these elections, to the point where a trending hashtag #REIGENSWEEP was generated. Fans from the entire planet shared its notorious support to achieve his victory.

But the event that crowned him, reaching even for people who aren’t chronic online was the Ultimate Tumblr Sexyman election, a category that would finally fight face to face with no one more or less than Sans from Undertale. This event was so fought among the fans that a result with a very small difference was expected, but which opponent would take the victory?

Finally, in the face of all the unexpected, Sans would dethrone Reigen from his unbeaten streak by 0.1%. The media coverage was so great that the whole world was aware of these results.

This led to even Toby Fox, the creator of Undertale and Deltarune, return to his Twitter account after years being inactive to post a short fanfic of Sans and Reigen fighting for the title.

Yes, this was truly a wild ride at the start of September. Not only this increased Reigen’s popularity, but it’s quite a coincidence that this collided with the day Queen Elizabeth of England died. This didn’t go unnoticed by everyone but created a new nuke to explode on the internet, and Reigen kept growing in relevance by the bizarre and the ridiculousness the users could offer.

Although not winning the election, Reigen was crowned as one of the sexiest characters on the Web, being titled also as everyone’s “little meow meow” and “disastrous babygirl”. I have to admit, after all of this researching (it’s me happily watching Mob Psycho 100 and voting in the elections as the responsible online citizen I am) I can see his appealing, the good-looking thing that got everyone drooling over his existence, but hey at least he slays with it.

It’s funny that he even got related to Saul Goodman, one of the men of all time that also got his “time to shine” at the Pandemic Quarantine. Well, Breaking Bad had kind of the same explosion by fans, returning its popularity back as it should BUT with the price that the fans created a “fanon version” so separated from the original show thanks to meme culture.

We can say Reigen passed for the same train, but let’s be honest: with his own persona he can create the memes that can fulfill our souls without hesitating.
