I swear Asagiri hates happy families because the only characters he likes to kill off are children and their father/older brother figures

it’s always “the hero would sacrifice you to save the world” vs “the villain would sacrifice the world to save you,” but what about the spy gone rogue who would stop burning down the world just for you????

Verlaine’s guide on how to introduce yourself to your little brother:

kidnap him

proceed to reveal that he is not human, just an artificial soul created from 2,383 lines of code

when the above don’t seem to make him like you, reveal that you murdered his friends

when he gets mad at you, repeat that he is not human and that his friends were lying to him

when he is still unconvinced, tell him you will kill every human that matters to him

for a dramatic exit, unleash hell on your brother for 0.3 seconds

baby fyodor.. baby chuuya..

ik ur not supposed to see ur bride until she walks down the aisle, but I like to think they were too excited to see eachother to wait

bonus: zoomed in + me officiating the wedding

Wait An/Kohane have outright stated romantic interest?

poor wording on my end bc they never actually say "an and kohane like each other romantically" but the evidence it very much there and it is clearly depicted and phrased in other ways. for example: the shoujo sparkle effect that is used for An from Kohane's POV.

This effect is often used on Haruka in Minori's imagination, which, well, let's just say it doesn't disprove that Kohane is attracted to An. While the effect is also used to show a character being cute or having a strong "idol" aura without any attraction attached, it's prettly clear the intent was to show Kohane's attraction. Also she was blushing.

Bonus points to the fact the wedding event has a underlying message (they say it on screen) about how marriage should be equal regardless of the genders of the couple [because gay marriage currently isn't legal in Japan].

There's also literally everything in Buddy Funny Spend Time. While almost all of the interactions in that event can be read as platonic if you really want to, they're written so you can interpret it as romantic if you choose to. And considering the featured pairs in this event were Minori/Haruka, An/Kohane, and (briefly) Shizuku/Airi, it's not like that reading isn't supported by the writers lol. There's one part where Minori and Kohane get jealous of how close Haruka and An are as childhood friends and aren't sure if they can amount to that, but they want to try. Doesn't necessarily have to be romantic but can be if you choose to read it as such.

When Kohane is visibly attracted to Haruka, An gets slightly jealous and says that her singing should be the only thing that makes Kohane react that way.

Haruka also points out that although An has always been super friendly she's never been like this with anyone until Kohane came into her life, and still keeps this behaviour Kohane-exclusive. An says it's because they're partners, which, kinda friendzones them, but kinda doesn't.

The word for partner used in the story - "aibou" - means, to put it in incredibly basic terms, coworkers. It's like the cowboy or detective word for partner, though I believe it comes up in shounen every so often (the genre vbs story is based on). In itself, aibou has no romantic connotation. But 3 of the partnerships we see in VBS' story have lots of interactions that easily read as having romantic undertones, so basically in the context of VBS story the nature of said partnerships becomes a little more ambiguous. The word is still platonic and that doesn't change, but you get the idea. Oh and VBS has recurring romantic soulmate imagery more on that later.

continuing on BFST, yeah they went on a date. which is strongly suggested to be a romantic date unlike how it's sometimes used platonically. like the other characters say An is "seeing someone", at least in the English translation, which is very much associated with romantic interest. Also the original Japanese for the "do you know who she's going out with" line uses the phrase デートの相手 which is the Japanese equivalent for the word "date" (as in a person/your date), so it's not really any different. they go on another one in Kick it up a notch and An's card story for the event. their relationship is never labelled or anything (probably bc this genre avoids that sorta thing for fan-related reasons) but this very much was a thing that happened.

(also when ken says partner he says aibou. so not partner /r but anyway it does clarify that this date is to do with their relationship on a different level to partners /p. ie: an's going on a date with kohane because she's cute not because she's her partner. language is fun)

Lastly back on that thing I said I'd come back to. The Walk on and on costumes have romantic soulmate symbolism included on them. The wings on the backs of the outfits are based on the mythical hiyoku bird, a one-winged bird that could only fly after meeting its other half. Kohane's costume has pink accents, one of the variants has accents in An's image color and the wings on the backs of those variants match up to each other. The card illstrations themselves also feature crows, which mate for life. While the symbolism is mostly associated with Toya, the Whip the Wimp Girl! cards take place in the same location as the woao cards which is pretty neat, and makes sense given the themes of both events. I've put both their gacha logos above as well. Oh and An's card for wtwg was. Something.

And Kohane got the valentine event this year and it was about her entering a contest to win limited edition chocolates for An I forgot about that until just now.

Have fun with that.

Gotta love how not even inside out explosion through apocalyptic possession is not enough to kill someone in this series but one (1) bullet was enough for Oda

when you get killed by a helicopter so you unleash one on the city out of spite:

Half the time I spent on this was dedicated to Mizuki’s hair

r.i.p. “A Once-In-A-Lifetime Pandemonium,” you will be missed 😔

Couldn't put my thoughts on niko and edwins friendship down in words properly but I made this.

if I had a nickel for every time i’ve seen a weirdo duo comprised of a dude alienated by his peers in his younger years due to his own genius and another who’s an overenthusiastic idiot (/affectionate) associated with the sun and the color orange, i’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it’s happened twice

When you realize that the reason sacrificing Edwin to Sa'al worked is that he was a virgin sacrifice

Gay sex could have saved him

if Verlaine won't do it then Karl will
