Round 2, Bracket 2, Side A, Fourth Poll

Art of Juligawa by @ryukogo

Hiccup Horrendous and Jack Frost [FrostCup], How to train your dragon and Rise of Guardians vs July and Igawa [Juligawa], A3! Act Addict Actors

Story of Juligawa:

When twitter bots were still active there was this bot called the Cursed Prompt Guy (@a3_promptbot) that randomly generated prompts and characters together. One fateful day, it generated this prompt .

[ CHARACTERS: Tenma Sumeragi, July // PROMPT: Butterfly kiss, Loyalty ]

As you may notice there is no slash, meaning it's just the two characters, no ship whatsoever. this is important.

See the thing here is that the character, Tenma Sumeragi, is the son of two world-famous actors. He was a child actor for TV before he decided to choose his own path and become a theater actor (since A3! is about theater boys), being a child actor means he had a manager, right? Enter: Igawa.

I was staring at the prompt, and for an entire moment, I just randomly thought 'now why would July swear loyalty to Tenma Sumeragi?'. This thought was immediately followed by '... hmmm (goes on Twitter/Discord servers) hey guys how old is july/igawa again', and then my friends, indulgently, answered me on both platforms - they were within the age range of each other as respectable adults

And then I just SAT THERE because at that very moment my brain EXPLODED like I was JIMMY NEUTRON because this ship did NOT make sense at all and YET, AND YET EVERYTHING MADE SENSE in my head suddenly for some reason.

See the first doddle I made of them with a caption

And my friends were like 'AYO HOLD ON HOLD ON RYU ARE YOU OKAY' and all I said was smth like 'sometimes things happen' and then about five hours later I published the first fic for them on Ao3. Apparently i wrote the fic at 8-ish PM on the same day I made the first doodle (at 6PM) then finished the fic around 11-ish PM.

And then my friend who is one of my ride-or-dies also published a fic around 12 midnight soon after me. I think the majority of the English-speaking fandom/western fandom who knows us thinks we're kinda crazy. It's okay we just like to indulge.

[galaxystar17]

Been thinking about gekka and igawa's bdays because of my juligawa brainrot. Well im going stereotypical now but igawa gives me very structured virgo vibes (im saying stereotypical because look at settsu fucking banri - a virgo but never fucking structured ehem). And as virgo starts late august/early september that gave me an idea. yes i wont let july live peacefully, your honor.

I mean imagine july getting shocked and caught off guard at Igawa's bday date if he was indeed a virgo born in late august. Igawa talking about a month and July misinterpreting it because of guilt creeping deep inside of him that he tries to ignore. Something along the lines of this:

"Igawa-kun, when's your birthday~?"

"why do you ask?"

"Well just because... Plus you celebrated mine already so I kinda got curious"

"Ehm, I dont think its that important to know but my birthday is at the end of August"

"August?!"

"Yeah, why are you so surprised, Kagerou-san? August, 8th month of the year, a summer month?"

"Ah y-yeah right. Of course thats what you meant."

"What did you think I meant?"

"Its... nothing really. I'll remember that, thanks"

No but listen it would be quite interesting seeing him all panicked like "wait fuck did he figure it out? shit I thought I was careful when did it happen what do I do? The organization will kill me if he knows. Okay, July just play it cool like always so he wont notice a thing" as he's usually quite composed and igawa is just unaware and confused in guy looking at him like "why u panicking I just simply asked. Are you okay? Im sorry, didnt know that a month can get someone this startled".

*Kagerou is a name people on ao3 picked for July as he didn't have any mission name stated in canon unlike chikage, hisoka or august.

TLDR: juligawa birthday talk gone wrong.

#a3! #a3! july #a3! igawa #juligawa #gekkagumi #first post #Kinda stereotypical zodiac im sorry #Galaxy random thoughts the chronicle #Birthday date talks i guess? #I just generally thought that they could celebrate eo's bdays? #Plus he was probably kinda aversed towards bdays after he deemed august as traitorous #I also have it written but without much details about july celebrating igawa's bday along the summer troupe idk i might post it here too #Sounds cheesy probably but Igawa trying to show July importance of birthdays after him not seeing anything valuable in them

mankai memory-esque izumi (it was just me playing around with a new brush i found then decided to finish the piece)

yae miko azuma (bc my irl said they were both pretty and purple)

a bunch of jusakus that i think are neat!! (the right one was inspired by fortune festival in jp)

pocket no uchuu got me obsessed bc it's so harugumicore (and from two of my fave enstars units too)

i don't remember why, but i drew this after seeing the enstars mika chainsaw card

delinquent sakuya!! (i was also experimenting with another brush here hehe)

juligawa leg kabedon (no you will not get any context for this)

EVERY NEW JULIGAWA FIC HURTS MY SOUL PLEASE I JUST WANT THEM TO BE HAPPY

Round 1, Bracket 1, Side A, Eight poll

Art of Juligawa by @ryukogo

Ichie Otonashi and Fumi Yumeoji [Ichifumi], Revue Starlight ReLIVE vs July and Igawa [Juligawa], A3! Act Addict Actors

Story of Ichifumi by @insertbrowsinghere

This goes back to, specifically, May 16th of 2022. I was trying to get into the Revue Starlight mobile game, since there was apparently a lot of my other favorite ship from the franchise, Junnana, in it. The problem was that I was having the problem I always have with new games of its nature, that being difficulty getting attached to the new characters. So, I decided to look through their descriptions on the loading screen during a big update. Two characters caught my eye, those characters being the character Michiru, and, more importantly, Ichie.

I posted that I think she was going to take over my brain (I was right) and a pal of mine mentioned that she and Fumi were a little gay together. I responded that I hadn't seen them together and was awaiting to see them, but I didn't expect to love them together. I just expected to know that they existed. I was so very wrong and as I am currently gazing at the exact moment I learned of them as a couple while looking for the exact moment I fell in love with them, I can only laugh at old me.

Suddenly they were hitting all my ship dynamics and Ichie became a primary reason as to why Fumi is even in the main cast. Surely, though, they wouldn't grow on me that much, I thought. They were silly together, but there was only so much depth there, right? Not anything that would soon rot my brain, anyways. Boom, Ichie reassuring Fumi that she beloved her and Fumi seeking out Ichie when the performance department was shut down. Boom, heavy emotional reliance between the two which transcended their usual dynamic. Boom, the ducking "Selfie-Master's Seminar" memoir. That last one ruined my life so much and by that point, I was in too deep.

I pathetically added them to my bio alongside my other three main ships, turning that trio into a life-ruining quartet. I began hunting for cards with stories centered around them but it couldn't get worse, I told myself. Then came Arcania Arcadia chapter 3/main story chapter 15. This ruined me, and it was all because of the fucking Ichifumi revue. There were other reasons attached, but that revue destroyed me.

The not at all serious reveal that Fumi had been supporting Ichie's streaming silently and secretly. Ichie calling out Fumi on her glamorization of the idea of beauty in death, since she saw it as an excuse. Ichie telling Fumi that she wanted to know more about her. Ichie's wish to see a stage that Fumi alone formed, in a franchise where this kind of thing is just sort of a love confession most of the time. Ichie letting Fumi win out of trust in her and Fumi doubting if she was truly the victor. All the impact this had on Fumi later. I was dying at this point, and then this game decided to beat my corpse down a little more by putting in the later scene where they reflected on their revue, Fumi tried to apologize, Ichie told her not to and they both resolved to move forward together.

Another stab was taken at my corpse with the scene in the final chapter where Ichie finally got to see a stage belonging to Fumi, and got to hold pride in it. I realized then I was in too deep. The characters I originally only expected to ship a little if at all had ruined my life. I could do nothing about it. I still can't and I am still in Ichifumi hell. Help.

[galaxystar17]

Okey listening to french songs made me realize just now that july would probably sound nice (read:hot) speaking french🫣

Just imagine him learning french because organization sent him on a mission to France once or something and he wanted to blend in well, so he knows it on a communicative level.

That brought quite an idea (the post will be a bit long im sorry).

Imagine a Juligawa scenario like this:

For example let's say july knows quite a lot of languages because of work. Igawa aint that great at them, so he knows japanese and maybe some english because this is all he needs anyway when it comes to being tenma's manager. And at some point july would say something like "je t'aime, mon chéri/mon amour" teasingly with a half smile, half smirk on his face as he knows igawa wouldnt understand him. So he would probably ask him in japanese what did he say and july would answer with 'no no its nothing igawa-kun, dont worry about it. I was just teasing.'

Later igawa would research with a translator (or maybe ask someone like chikage that knows languages well) what it meant and once learning the meaning he would become a shocked but blushing mess 😂😂 Also my mind came up with chikage teasing the shit out of igawa while translating that phrase with a big grin on his face lmao something like "oh you got a confession in french, igawa-san. Who's that lucky date of yours, hmm? Going international now, are we?" and igawa answering with "no no its nothing like that chikage-san. Forget i said anything." To that chikage would be like "haha, okay okay. Good luck with your international date then."

Also i can imagine igawa stumbling across tenma on his way out of the dorms, with tenma later guessing that the whole thing was about july all along and told igawa that he should talk to him about it or answer the confession (sort of at least) and igawa going with "...well i guess i can try."

#a3! #a3! july #a3! igawa #chikage utsuki #tenma sumeragi #juligawa #Love confessions(sort of) #But in french #Chikage being a useful translator #i also imagined itaru coming back to room 103 seeing chikage with a big grin on his face #Then going “wtf senpai why are you smiling like that? Its scary” #“You used some of your cheat codes again didnt you?” “not really actually i was translating smth for igawa-san and giving him love advice” #“love advice? You? Youre the unromantic senpai.” “yeah i can give advices too you know regardless of your view of me” #So itaru would ask him what was it all about then and chikage would be like #“i cant tell you chigasaki its confidential. All i can say is that he might be caught up in some international date.” #“a what now? You know what im gonna go game now idk youre weirder than usual” #Yes i had a whole vision about it lmao #How hilarious it could be when igawa later would try to explain to july that he understood it (doesnt matter that someone helped him lmao) #And july going 'oh really? Then what did i say?' #Theyre so stupid i luv them #Brainrot caught up to me again #Okay ill excuse myself now #galaxy random thoughts the chronicle

#round 2 #brackets #round 2 bracktes #how did i end up shipping this poll #not a poll

[howdidiendupshippingthispoll]

I am not going to lie to you guys. I am not feeling motivated to keep going with the poll because I see much disagreement with how the poll is going.

First, there is the problem with the ship names, which isn't the main issue but it is starting to bother me the number of people that are saying: "That's not how it´s called" "That's an awful name", etc,

I know that. I know that those aren't the names. I know that they are awful. But I have already explained: I didn't have the name for all the ships (despite me asking several times for the ship name) and asked if people wanted me to make up a name for those I didn't have a name, the answer was yes, so I did.

I don't mind putting the real names once I found them, but I am keeping the old ones because of tagging. I have said this many times and it is starting to get tedious.

But the main problem about everything is that I am seeing a lot. "why this ship here" or "they shouldn't be here" or the last was the ask I just answered. And even I have started to wonder if it's fair for the ships with a story to lose to the more popular ones. (thou that it isn't the case, see how Juligawa gained to Frostcup).

I have my reasons to include every ship that is in this poll. Every ship. Even the popular ones such as Zelink or Zutara. I am not posting those stories because I don't have consent, and I would hate to post something that doesn't belong to me without consent.

But I don't want any ship to be mistreated, or that people feel it's unfair, but I don't know what else to do, on the top of my head, there are two options. I finish the poll, keep it going until the end, or do it again.

But I am not going to lie. I don't know if I have the time to restart the poll, I am leaving on vacation on July 29, where I would be mostly offline and surely won't have time to keep the poll running. I return to my home after two weeks and start university a week after.

I am not making a poll this time, I want to hear your thoughts, what you want. I really want to see this through to the end, but I am really not feeling motivated anymore.
