BGM: Cornelius - Star Fruits Surf Rider

Today was a day for the hospital. I went to there and met my job coach. With my doctor, we talk about myself a lot. The doctor said an advice to me as "Anxiety affects as your insomnia so you should get fid of it from your workplace basically". The job coach taught to him about me a lot, and I thought that I should trust her fully. After that meeting, the job coach said to me that she had joined in the Facebook group a friend of me had as an admin. "We will meet the people we should meet", she said so, and I thought that I have to think thankful for the meetings with my job coach, and also various activities with a lot of friends. I am powerless so can do nothing alone. Connecting with others would give me a power, various lessons, and a certain self-confidence. Yes, I am basically a happy person.

At a LINE group which talks about philosophy a lot like a cafe, we talk about my autistic character a lot. An user said that "autism is a kind of gift", and it let me think a lot. I don't treat the words "gift" or "talent" a lot. Indeed, there are exactly some people who have great "talent", but we shouldn't judge people as that "the gifted skill of them". Even though they don't have any great skill, even though they are just ordinary citizens, they must be precious people who are to be respected. This feeling might come from the belief that I think myself as a ordinary citizen. Not thinking ourselves as great ones because of any great talent (for example, there must be a lot of people who speak English as well as I), but just accepting ourselves as their natural size. That is important.

After taking a nap, I couldn't feel comfortable in my room so tried to visit AEON and change my mood. I read Natsuki Ikezawa's "Nautical Chart and Logbook" again. Accidentally, because of the discussion in this book, I thought of a primal question. "Why do I read books?". To this, all I can answer is just "it is a habit since my childhood". Or "because there are various books in this world already"... I never think reading is a sublime activity. It is as well as learning English or watching movies as a way of spending time or learning. Not from the reason why reading is great, but the reason why I "naturally" read them... It might be the same as the reason why I live. Not thinking my life is meaningful, but living automatically as my body wants. Or, naturally I live... and that is precious primarily.

In the night, I joined another philosophical cafe group in LINE openchat. At there, an user recommended a video which Akira Asada, a Japanese philosopher analyzed Ryuichi Sakamoto's works. I enjoyed it, and was really impressed how sharp Asada could analyze the difficult works by Sakamoto. This can be done because Asada knows both classical music and pop music well. But I had a different opinion from him because Asada had said as "now the scene must be devastating". Although my knowledge about music must not be rich as Asada's, I think of some Japanese great musicians as Keigo Oyamada and Yoshihide Ohtomo. Their works can have a value to be global. We also have to think about how "city pop" has been praised from all over the world. Indeed, some of "J-POP" might be not opened to the world, therefore they satisfied with themselves as crap. But there are certainly those kinds of phenomenon I wrote above. It is too early to lose any hope I believe.

HypMic x Detective Conan AU [Masterlist]

Another ridiculous crossover, this time HypMic and DC. DC is the anime that will always hold a special place in my heart. 

As for HypMic, I got pulled in it recently. I know that there must be something I don’t know, because I haven’t research the characters deeper yet (I only watched the anime and read the Fandom lol).

I JUST LOVE IT WHEN MY FAVORITE TWO SERIES MEET, OKAY? HERE WE GO!

Introduction: PART 1 (you’re here!) - PART 2

Countdown to Heaven: trapped in Tower A - among the evacuees - car crossing to tower

Yokohama Pier confrontation: the unwanted arrival and rescue

The setting took place (mostly) in Yokohama (Kanagawa) and a little bit in Shinjuku, Shibuya, and Ikebukuro (Tokyo).

Best read while listening to "Greed” by KNOCK OUT MONKEY or “DEATH RESPECT” by MAD TRIGGER CREW VS Matenrou

---

Ichiro Yamada (child identity: Hiroki Ohtomo)

Nineteen-year old Ichiro was a well-known amateur detective throughout Ikebukuro and later Yokohama for being able to solve any crime that the police failed to. He is also a former member of The Dirty Dawg, a rap group.

One day, after solving a murder at an amusement park, Ichiro comes upon a mysterious man in black extorting money from another man. Assuming that he knows too much, the two men forced him into a rap battle. One of them used an illegal Hypnosis Microphone laced with poison that was supposed to not only kill him, but leave no trace behind.

Unfortunately for them, Ichiro has been shrunk into a ten-year old. One quick visit to his rival and neighbor Samatoki's house later, Ichiro realizes that he must keep his real identity secret, otherwise the two men in black will come back and kill him for good.

Nemu Aohitsugi (child identity: Chika Aoyama)

Nemu Aohitsugi is a genius chemist who created the CASTOR-IX poison that turned Ichiro into a ten-year old boy.

After she is imprisoned by the yakuza for being related to the yakuza traitor, Samatoki Aohitsugi, Nemu attempted to end her own life with a dose of CASTOR-IX but was instead de-aged as well. Using her newly-shrunken body to escape and go into hiding as "Chika Aoyama", Nemu is luckily taken in by her older brother. She uses her condition to live out the innocent childhood she never had.

She befriends Ichiro, Jiro, and Saburo as a way to make amends for her past crimes, and works on an CASTOR-IX antidote for Ichiro.

Samatoki Aohitsugi

An ex-yakuza (wakagashira) of the Katen Family and former member of The Dirty Dawg along with Ichiro. Samatoki is Ichiro's hot-tempered friend/rival who makes a living developing odd inventions (albeit failed miserably at times); some of which are put to use by Ichiro throughout his (mis)adventures.

Despite their bitter rivalry, Ichiro appears to have the utmost trust in him. Ichiro had no problem of revealing his identity to him only moments after being shrunk by an illegal Hypnosis Microphone laced with poison called "CASTOR-IX".

He is Nemu Aohitsugi's older brother and took her in when she showed up at Ichiro's doorstep unconscious and drenched in the rain. He often provides insight for Ichiro to help combat the yakuza.

Hifumi Izanami

A no. 1 host who works at a club in Shinjuku. He has a severe fear of women, yet a very upbeat and friendly fellow. 

He was believed to be the yakuza's Jyuto Iruma, but is actually a Public Security Bureau (PSB) agent named Hifumi Izanami looking into his whereabouts. He is unaware that the real Jyuto Iruma has been using his appearance as a disguise to hunt for Nemu Aohitsugi.

As a PSB agent, he's often partnered with fellow agent (and best friend) who poses as a pessimistic salaryman, Doppo Kannonzaka.

Doppo Kannonzaka

A sales representative at the E.L Medical Co, Ltd, a manufacturer of medical equipment in Shinjuku which has its branch in Yokohama. 

He’s a pessimist who thinks about everything in a negative light, and... oh, he apologizes constantly. He's often seen with black eyes due to perpetual gloom and exhaust.

Beneath his unassuming personality, he's secretly a competent Public Security Bureau (PSB) agent with his partner (and best friend), Hifumi Izanami, who poses as a club host.

Notes:

- I tried my best not to make them stray off from their respective occupations (for Doppo and Hifumi), basically these two are undercover agents and uses club host and salaryman as a cover :)

- I made Samatoki as an ex-yakuza and Nemu as a chemist associated with them. However, both betrayed the underworld because they couldn’t see each other a long time and grew tired of the shady things they do everyday.  I JUST WANT TO SEE THEM SPEND THEIR FAMILY TIME TOGETHER (poor Nemu got brainwashed by the Chuoku) :”(((

- Samatoki as a mad inventor whose inventions malfunction constantly is my everything, hehehehe

- HELLO, DOPPO AS A SECRET AGENT IS BADASS AF, SO DO HIFUMI

- Oh yes, Jyuto become a yakuza member who poses as an active-duty police sergeant in the Organized Crime Unit of the Kanagawa Police. Put it simply, he infiltrated the police force which is part of his mission to hunt Nemu :)

- I tried to make a hybrid use of Hypnosis Microphone and real weapons here. In a relatively normal situation, they use Hypnosis Microphone to fight, but when everything gets tough, they use weapons. In Ichiro’s case, as he was shrunken into a child, he can’t rap in order not to expose his identity. However, he can rap when he returned to his original body temporarily.

[Bond] The fateful bond between Movie “Rurouni Kenshin” and ONE OK ROCK

Do you remember when the offer came for the theme song for the first Rurouni Kenshin movie?

A really fateful thing happened. Originally, when we joined our previous agency, the person who found us was someone who was once SIAM SHADE’s manager. SIAM SHADE sang a theme song for the Rurouni Kenshin anime and was a very successful band. But some years later, that manager passed away from sickness. On the other hand, when it came time to do the live-action version of Rurouni Kenshin, the main lead Takeru Satoh and I had chased after various dreams together since our teen years and were like comrades who had fought alongside each other… When that comrade came to work on Rurouni Kenshin, Takeru said, “The theme song has got to be ONE OK ROCK.” As such, I felt like all the gears were in sync. We’re where we are now thanks to everything finally coming together. I was still in my early 20s at the time, but I remember how the seed of our sense of purpose sprouted back then.

Would you say that the story of Rurouni Kenshin and ONE OK ROCK are synchronized?

Rather than those two, I would say that Takeru Satoh, ONE OK ROCK, and Rurouni Kenshin were synchronized. There was a moment where the three just came together with a bang, and from there it was just like things fell into place.

How did the collaboration with Ed Sheeran for “Renegades” come about?

At first we just thought about creating a song with Ed. Then the offer for the movie just happened to come along. He2 also seemed to know about Rurouni Kenshin, and that’s how we came to make the theme song together. After we decided to make the song together, I told Ed, “First, please let me explain in detail.” We explained our current motivations, our feelings towards Rurouni Kenshin, and also what kind of character the man named Kenshin is. We also explained how well-suited the role of Kenshin is for Takeru Satoh, Takeru’s human nature, what kind of relationship I have with him… We created the song together after I explained all of this to Ed.

Please tell us your thoughts after having watched Rurouni Kenshin: The Beginning. For the series finale to end with a “beginning,” compared to the previous 4 works, the production of this one is quite unique.

Without a doubt, I like The Beginning the best. A song we created was used in a movie that I love, I really felt the director’s love, and of course, Takeru Satoh’s performance of Kenshin Himura was just awesome (laugh). ……Every time I watch The Beginning, I feel that this is something only Takeru could pull off. That’s why we got close, and with the intention of scooping his emotions, we hoped the last song “Broken Heart of Gold” would reach him.

Note (i found another translation of this part): "Every time I watch 'The Beginning,' I think to myself, 'Kenshin Himura could only have been played by Takeru (Sato). That's why we wrote this song with the image of being there for him, like scooping up his emotions and delivering the song at the end.

With the playing of “Broken Heart of Gold” at the end of the story, as ONE OK ROCK, what kind of images did you want to add at the end of Rurouni Kenshin?

That scene was also the beginning for Kenshin, so it’s definitely not simply the end of the story. That’s why I feel like telling people to go back and rewatch 1, 2, 3, and 4. It’s like, now that we’re at the end, I don’t want it to end on just a sad note. I want people to go back to the first Rurouni Kenshin again after hearing the ending “Broken Heart of Gold.” I want them to go back and meet again with the cool Kenshin, the smiling Kenshin. I wanted to connect together Kenshin and Takeru Satoh’s personalities.

By the way, after creating 5 theme songs from the first Rurouni Kenshin until The Beginning, did you receive any explanations about the story’s world or any suggestions from director Ohtomo or Mr. Satoh?

Not at all. When I first met with director Ohtomo and watched the first movie, he was just like, “OK, I leave the rest up to you” (laugh). I was also surprised, and it was our first big tie-up, so I wondered at first if it was okay like this. Now that I think back about it, I understand that he had earnestly watched it, researched about it, and trusted us. On the other hand, Takeru is like my comrade or best friend, and we’re always together so…… we were a bit like a married couple (laugh). That said, there wasn’t really anything particular that was explained to me. It was like, he’s doing his best so I should too. Also, I already know what he likes, so I just put my focus on that.

Lastly, what is Rurouni Kenshin to ONE OK ROCK?

It’s a comrade that we walked alongside of. This applies to both Takeru and Kenshin who are like a set. We just want to say, truly…… Thank you.

Note: i just posted all the answers he mentioned Takeru for the TakaTake Masterlist. you can read the full translation of the interview here (x) (x)

HypMic x Detective Conan AU [Part 2]

After introducing our hero, Ichiro and his friends in the previous part, PART 2 HERE WE GO!

Best read while listening to “Ai wa Kurayami no Naka de” by ZARD feat. Aya Kamiki (LISTEN IT, I DARE YOU) or “Gangsta’s Paradise” by Aohitsugi Samatoki (Asanuma Shintarou)

PART 1 - PART 2 (you’re here!)

Jiro Yamada and Saburo Yamada

Ichiro’s two younger brothers and part-time workers at Odd-Jobs Yamada. Jiro is an athletic street smart, yet lazy second year high schooler and delinquent. Saburo is an intelligent, yet insufferable know-it-all third year middle schooler who is a computer expert. They are the second people to discover that their older brother have shrunken into a child after Samatoki.

Despite their constant bickering with each other, Jiro and Saburo are Ichiro’s invaluable staunchest allies in his struggle against the yakuza which responsible for shrinking Ichiro’s body to a 10-year-old boy. Saburo occasionally would help Nemu to develop the CASTOR-IX antidote.

In order to keep Ichiro’s transformation a secret, they refer Ichiro, by his alias Hiroki Ohtomo, as their “cousin” in public. However, they will refer him by real name when around people who they deemed “trustworthy” (e.g. Samatoki, Nemu, Jakurai, Hifumi, and Doppo).

Jakurai Jinguji

A Public Security Bureau (PSB) agent who is Hifumi and Doppo’s direct superior. He has previously been a part of the yakuza under an alias. He chases after the yakuza in the present time. Before joining the police force, Jakurai was a professional assassin with 100% body count rate and a former member of The Dirty Dawg.

He was introduced as a mysterious man who was spying on Ichiro Yamada and later Nemu Aohitsugi. He ordered his agents to discreetly photograph her in order to confirm the newly appeared “Chika Aoyama” as Nemu during the Film Development Studio case.

At the moment, he works at Shinjuku Public Hospital as a doctor. He is unaware by the fact that nurses are in love... ahem, admire him.

Jyuto Iruma

The lead operative of the yakuza who poses as an active-duty police sergeant in the Organized Crime Unit of the Kanagawa Police, introduced during the yakuza's initial hunt for Nemu Aohitsugi.

An expert at impersonation, he is a notoriously independent wild card even among his own allies and always puts his own interests above all other goals. It turns out he has history with the main characters, Ichiro, Samatoki, and Nemu in particular.

While he has no hesitation in manipulating Ichiro, Samatoki, or threatening those around him, Jyuto would do almost anything to prevent Ichiro (including his two brothers, Jiro and Saburo) and Samatoki from being killed.

Rio Mason Busujima

A former sergeant-ranking naval officer. One of the yakuza's most dangerous operatives, and the one who is unknowingly responsible for Ichiro's current condition. 

He appears to be one of the highest-ranked members, as most other yakuza are shown frightened to him and he can even threaten Jyuto without repercussions.

Rio is quite perceptive and amazing at deduction, being able to spot traps and discrepancies others fail to. His cold greyish blue eyes or the mere mention of his name can make Nemu shudder in fear.

Notes:

- YESSSSSSS JYUTO AS BAD GUY IS MY EVERYTHING (his role as the mole in the police force is inspired from a character in Yakuza 4).

- When I saw Rio, he would be a perfect traitor hunter lol.

- Jyuto and Rio are Nemu’s nemesis. They're DREADED to her more than any yakuza members.
