while i do love romantic shin soukoku i’ve become obsessed with the comedic potential of a platonic shin soukoku vs romantic soukoku where sskk are considered the stronger double black because they’re NOT soulmates, in a “dont fuck your coworkers” way. atsushi and akutagawa are just two guys who, once they come to a mutual understanding, make a damn powerful team. in contrast dazai and chuuya are weirdo freaks who are obsessed with each other to the point where yes, they’re a terrifying duo, but they’re also sneaking off to hook up on the sly and having a domestic dispute at all times. sskk “did you guys finish the group project yet” vs skk “no we got in an argument and then made out” fight

#u could also theoretically reverse this. but i think it’s funnier this way #dazai is like ‘they will become even stronger than me and chuuya’ because he’s spending half the battle pulling chuuyas pigtails #akutagawa at least learns to prioritize beating up atsushi until after the fight #skk get it together man #ok bsd fandom here’s my monthly contribution. happy valentines day #also don’t get it twisted sskk should kiss i just like comedy #shin soukoku #soukoku #bsd #syd text

Congratulations Horikashi for being the only romcom couple ever (♫ big flirt - lil hero)

#Mimi edits #Horikashi Nation come get your snack #monthly girls’ nozaki-kun #gsnk #yuu kashima #masayuki hori #horikashi #Monthly Girls’ Mimi Edits is back with another 30-second clip #such a shame how I’ve seen 1 (ONE) edit of them so far across ALL platforms. #that is a problem and I had to contribute to fixing it 🫡 #Horikashi might be winning popularity polls but Nozachiyo got all the editors #anyway I was especially indecisive with the transitions #I fully redid at least 3 of them in a desperate attempt of avoiding self-plagiarism #but I finally added a texture overlay and figured out how to easily use them in general (though Tumblr made it invisible bc low quality 🫥) #so ig there’s that #monthly girls nozaki kun #gsnkedit #my edit #video edit #gsnk spoilers

Greetings, Anon! Thank you for your questions. I have to admit, even in the past, I refrained from posting reactions or speculations as BSD chapters release, but you already knew that, so I will indulge you. I'll answer each part of your ask. BSD ch113 thoughts below, manga spoilers ahead.

♠ "What was your raw reaction?" It was not a calm, quiet one, I can tell you that. No, in fact I screamed with excitement as if I was in a Roman amphitheatre and my favourite gladiator just got back up on his feet, out of sheer force of will, grinning and sweaty. My scream was the fastest way I could "verbalize" the fact that I was overjoyed to see him alive again, even if it's in the 15th century, and on top of that he seemed to be some kind of spy monk all chained up and having what seems to be a ridiculous amount of fun getting caught and discussing with Bram. This is all very in-character for him.

♠ "Was that something you expected?" Absolutely not. Yes, yes, I truly did not expect a jump back in time and this infobomb drop, despite the fact that we did get a few hints that Fedya seemed present at past events when all the other character really appeared younger than him (near the end of S4ep3, where on a rooftop Fedya says "It's not V, it's Five" and I am seriously like bruh I give up what I want to say is I need more data to work with, what am I supposed to do with this, rationally speaking?). However, we can't yet extract anything conclusive from this. Is he ageless? A time-traveler? Immortal? Does he revive? When was he born? Was he born at all or created differently somehow? Is he of BSD's world, or an external one (Beast liveaction finale anyone?)? Is this all within the Book and he's just… idk flipping the pages? Anything is possible and I refuse to spend a lot of time working with incomplete data. This is not very follower-friendly (as in, my blog is basically inactive in-between), I know and I apologize, but if after many chapters there will be something worthwile to add to my essay (with what Fukuchi said in ch113 I already have important stuff to add), under those circumstances I will consider writing an update. It's not yet time.

♠ "<Was that> something you felt different for the characterization we all made for Fyodor?" Hmm, I would hesitate to refer to a characterization "we all made" for him (I wish! T o T), because my analysis and blog are but a tiny tiny part of the fandom (I think…? I wonder about my Fedya essay's reach or influence sometimes). But let's say here we refer to one that comes close to what I tried to show in my essay. In that case, I would say that there is nothing to fear here in this chapter, but it's very understandable to have massive trust issues at this point. We went through a miserable, miserable time when the previous ones made the guy who visually memorized a full deck of used cards somehow not notice Chuuya wearing contacts and fake vampire teeth, despite knowing the vampire race since… well, the 15th century! I cannot even begin to describe what I felt reading ch111.5-112, I was beyond repulsed. Lovers of "villain" characters understand the following thing well: in most media, our fav has to lose, he has to die or disappear at some point, with rare exceptions. I, too, know this well, but that was no compelling way to solve BSD's villain threat. I still don't know how BSD will wash away that narrative stain, as I consider it, but then again one of the reasons we love this manga is that it keeps us on the edge of our seats and the most absurd yet fun turns can happen out of the blue. We can reasonably ask ourselves: ok, what is the purpose of showing Fedya's backstory now? If it's for build-up, we can already start grinning like Cheshire cats. What could possibly be next? I'm cautiously optimistic, things look in-character and good to me. Very good, in fact.

♠ "Or do you think it is later on going add some depth to his character?" Backstories are shown usually for a very clear purpose. We don't know the purpose yet, but if it's done well, then… then my whole essay could be at risk lmao (and I love this sensation). New info could add so much depth to his character, in fact, that his previously observed traits could gain new meanings, or even contradictory ones. Whichever it will be, I think it's pretty safe to bet on "his backstory will be very relevant".

♠ Bonus: even if I enjoy going "full analytical" and enter conference speech mode when asked, I am driven by strong emotions, by which I want to say – I am not immune to assassin/spy monk Fedya chained up like that and having the time of his life again. I missed seeing him entertained like that, and his current …………. visual representation in the.. uh. ..chapter, yeah, well, it's doing things to my Depeche Mode-worshipping heart.

Anyway, to conclude with some facts we know as of now:

a. Fedya and Bram are inside the Bran Castle, close to the Romanian city of Brașov, "deep in the Carpathians" although not built at high altitude itself. It's basically a fortress built between 1377-1388, with several later additions. The BSD representation of it is very accurate to how it looks today. It's near perfect, actually, I applaud.

b. Bram mentions King Matthias, and in this context that can only mean Matthias Corvinus, King of Hungary for 1458-1490. The meeting between Fedya and Bram thus happens some year during his reign, when Transylvania was still part of the Kingdom of Hungary. What is still strange to me is that I can't pinpoint Bram's exact position, as in… were his people independent? Or avoided? I feel like I need to re-read past Bram-related chapters to think about this.

c. Nevermind Bram, the things that Fukuchi says, those are the real goldmine here, but the gold is still… encrypted? I mean: Fedya made the DoA plan (more than confirmed now), and because Fukuchi asked for the condition to keep casualties under 500, Fedya respected that and we got entertained for like half of the whole BSD manga: using coin bombs for terror, for economic/political destabilization, using the vampire infection to avoid further violence, these things. The more you think about it, the more insane it gets. Since Fedya agreed to this condition, it means causing (more) deaths and violence were expendable things to him. (But imagine this: Fukuchi said "I want max. 500 deaths" and Fedya said "Yeah I can do that", now if Fukuchi would've said "I want max. 2 deaths" I really believe Fedya would've still said "Yeah I can do that". What can't he do, especially since murder for murder's sake isn't his goal?). This is in perfect harmony with his "necessary deaths only" approach so far, and much much more. There are far more implications in what Fukuchi said, which I won't type out here now. Gotta keep them and build around them for a future analysis update.

This was a rather long read, but still, I hope this satisfies your curiosities, Anon. *bows dramatically & disappears in a borderline insufferable ENTP way*

#Lav answers #I can't believe I wrote so much #yet still I will keep true to my principle of not over-speculating with insufficient data #a proper essay update would be much more valuable than making separate monthly posts even though in this way I can't contribute to the hype #or despair #or both #but fans of patient analysis will profit .. richly from this #someday! #sigh why is it I can talk about Fedya for hours #why can't I..... ugh....... #Iiiiiiii caaaaan't stooooop lovinggg youuuu #OTL................ #man I've chosen the best manga character of all time frfr #also as of ch113 my Philosopher!Fedya fanfic is basically.................canon-friendly to the highest degree and I can't believe it #it happens in like the 1440-1450s and I dont even know how to feel about this reveal skjdfng

Did NOT realize the Sheldon sampler challenge counted in your weapon stats. This image hit me like a load of bricks

#and it took me a minute to figure what happened I was like I don’t even OWN some of these weapons #and I checked my weapon freshness too way back when and was disappointed to see I wasn’t getting credit for wins during that challenge #but they go ahead and hit me with this. I’d rather it contribute to my freshness than mess up my monthly stats #splatoon #splatoon 3 #splatnet #splattedby.E

UPDATE TO THE ORNAMENTS QUESTION (thank you all for your lovely input): I bought a tiny, shiny tree today. it is made of tinsel and is very retro which has soothed my soul over it being fake. also it's a bitch to store and some of my ornaments are way too big for it but it is MINE

#I've been feeling frenetic about life and my solution has been to get weird and wired about christmas early #I bought some presents today. and wrapped them. and put them in their addressed boxes. #I'm gonna own christmas this year #also every year I set aside monthly money for a christmas fund bc back at my old job christmas would threaten to bankrupt me in nov/dec #as i bought gifts #but now that I'm at a better paying job I haven't even touched the fund lol. and I also doubled my monthly contributions #if I have leftover funds in january I'm just gonna chuck it into my travel fund haha #also I have some late-year bday presents I need to get aaa

literally for me hearing Some Rando talking in a video about something will never be as engaging or informative as spending a tight 45 minutes watching researchers and scientists directly get up to absolutely bananas shit and then explain it

#ignore me i just feel like i’m about to burst #my mum wanted to go to florida for her birthday so i gave her quite literally all of the money i’d saved up since 2019 #which was £3000 which i said was all the money i could give and she agreed it would be considered my contribution #towards the villa flights and tickets despite the fact that physically it was all spent on the villa deposit #and now she’s turned around and said she’ll need £700-£1000 per person for tickets and i was like ‘oh but like. physically i don’t need to #give you any more money right?’ and she goes ‘i don’t know there’s a sheet somewhere over there that says how much everything costs’ so now #there’s every possibility i’m going to have to give her even more money when i only have £250 monthly i wouldn’t be able to give her paymen #until april at the latest and that’s if i lock away all access to the banks and get rid of anything i spend money on #and it’s just stressful and scary but also frustrating that it’s even a question when we agreed that that £3000 was my only contribution #esp because i don’t have a job everybody i talk to irl says i shouldn’t be contributing at all but that isn’t an option realistically #ik that probably when she finds the sheet she’ll be like ‘yeah you don’t need to pay’ but it’s like why is this even a question #why am i lying here crying about it
