MURAKAMI NIJIRO as CHISHIYA SHUNTARO

ALICE IN BORDERLAND 1.03

'25 GEN AIB and the controversy around SHIPPING.

If you've ever been in a fandom, which you certainly have if you're on tumblr, then you know that one of the biggest things that makes a fandom is shipping. Whether it be adored by the fandom, shut away in some locked up corner online, or frowned upon, almost every fandom has shipping. And Alice in Borderland is no stranger to the concept.

<> NOTICE : Nothing that I say in this post is meant to offend, harm, or attack anyone. This is simply an informational post sharing my opinion on current controversies in the fandom.

IT'S THE BASIC OUTCOME OF A FANDOM.. : Alice in Borderland has been around for almost 15 YEARS NOW. No matter how long ago you joined the fandom, whether you've been here since it's first manga release or since this year's borderland revival, if you may, on TikTok, you already know shipping is HUGE in this fandom. Which means an outrageous amount of stupid arguments over which characters are more compatible than others. Perhaps the most frustrating part of the new gen of AIB fans (I say this because I personally and most of those similar to me have been here for around 4 years) is the shipping. Now, don't take this the wrong way. I am all for shipping- if you already know me, then you would know that a large chunk of this account is based on an AIB ship. Shipping becomes a problem when people in the fandom begin arguing over which ship is better and full on attacking each other over it. I say this referring to the uprise of Chippei (Chishiya Shuntaro / Ippei Oki) and Nishiya (Niragi Suguru / Chishiya Shuntaro) and the new fandom's growing rivalry regarding these 2 ships. I have literally seen Chippei lovers tell Nishiya fans that they HATE THEM and even tell them to kms over them preferring Nishiya, or just for not liking Chippei. A portion of Nishiya shippers aren't saints either. This behavior is EXTREMELY immature. And it isn't only between these two, but it's mainly between these two. As a fandom we should respect each other, whether or not we agree with each other's opinions. Nishiya shippers who act immaturely back to the shippers who disagree whether they be Chippei, Chirisu, Niratatta, etc, make me feel ashamed to be a Nishiya shipper. WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF YOU DISAGREE WITH A SHIP ? : : If you disagree with a ship you should simply scroll away. It's that simple. I personally have STRONG opinions towards Niratatta, but you will NEVER catch me telling someone who ships the two to do bad things to themselves or other kinds of hate speech. If you are in a conversation with someone who ships something different from you, you can simply say, "I personally don't ship them / don't agree with the ship, but it's a cool concept! I'm glad you enjoy it!" And go along with your day. It's THAT simple to be a normal human being and respectful member of your fandom, whether its Alice in Borderland or not. If someone is being disrespectful or crude towards you for your ship, don't reciprocate the behavior. Simply ignore them, and if they don't stop, block them. You should NEVER reply with rude remarks in return.

And, that concludes my rant. To anyone in this fandom, or any fandom for that matter, that already behaves in a respectful manner, props to you. Keep doing what you're doing !! You make your fandom a much better place when you treat others nicely :)) See you next rant !! Bye bye !

I heard you wanted asks so 👀 i offer a variety.

What's one or two connections between characters that you would like to have seen explored more? Similarly, or could be different, is there a connection/bond you wished the fandom explored/acknowledged more as a whole? What about a character?

What game out of all, manga or live action, do you think you'd have the most FUN playing (excluding the death if losing)? If YOU were in the Borderlands, would you choose to try to find the Beach if you heard about it, or stick to yourself/with a small group? What would be the first thing you would do if everyone disappeared?

AAAAH YES an amazing ask from an amazing writer !! I REALLY wish Niragi and Chishiya's dynamic was explored more, especially in the live action. we didn't get nearly enough of them and especially not enough of how they view each other. With almost all the lines about the similarities they have being completely scrapped, little of their dynamic came to life and that's really disappointing :( I'd love to have seen them play a game together, especially a diamonds game. On the other note, I wish the fandom acknowledged Aguni and Heiya more !! Half the fandom shits on Heiya and the other half just calls Aguni buzzcut guy because they didn't find him relevant enough to learn his name !!! Like what the hell man, I think the relationship they had was really something special and it was cool to see Aguni become a sort of father figure and Heiya's admiration for him was honestly just adorable. I honestly think I'd have the most fun playing Tag / 5 of Spades ! Like I think it would be pretty fun to have a group of people and go looking around for the room. Seriously reminds me of games I used to play with my friends and cousins ! Next question, I would stick with a small group. Being alone in the borderlands is dangerous grounds and while it does almost give yourself a little shield from the possible misfortune of a hearts game (looking at you, 7 of hearts..), it doesn't really help your case much if you end up in a clubs or spades game with no one you know. The first thing I'd do if everyone disappeared ? Probably be almost EXACTLY like Arisu and be concerned for a bit, start dilly dallying, then go from LOL!!! to serious in 5 seconds once I saw a game venue. That about sums me up... THANK YOU FOR THESE AMAZING ASKS !!!! These were so fun to answer omg I love these questions :3

so down bad i started writing a short story about the longing and despair that comes with being in love w a straight man

are parents js not parenting correctly anymore cuz tell me why i saw so many 8-9 year olds at the tyler concert dude when i was their age i would get my ass whooped for listening to a song w the word shit in it. how are they allowed to go to a tyler concert where a majority of the songs were abt sex :sob: HE PLAYED TRON CAT. AND TAMALE. AND STICKY OFC. AND JUDGE JUDY + gave a whole speech on safe sex. YALL NEED TO TAKE BETTER CARE OF YOUR KIDS...

itd prob mostly be like little nirashiya minis, fic teasers, and other little stuff w different characters

me each time I see someone have the wrong opinion about AIB: please remember that Arisu is a ♥️ player, not a ♦️ one. Arisu being a ♥️ specialist is VITAL to all his development and to the final confrontation between himself, Niragi and Chishiya because that's a ♥️ player facing two ♦️players The final game within players is meant to be mind and reason vs heart and emotion and one character with a lot of empathy and skills of understanding others facing other two WHO LACK ALL OF THAT

it's not a game between 3 ♦️ players That wouldn't make any sense it's a ♥️ player DOING HIS THING AND "TRICKING" THE DIAMIN PLAYERS INTO CHANGING

You got Chishiya, whose apathy and indiference towards the world made it so imposible for him to undertand others And Niragi, who is so trapped inside his own view of the world and himself who can't also undertand anyone else

And then you have Arisu, who gets BOTH OF THEM, he can understand both CHISHIYA AND NIRAGI BECAUSE HE IS A ♥️PLAYER. WHAT WOULD BE IMPOSIBLE IF HE WAS ALSO A ♦️ ONE

Arisu is not a parallel to Chishiya or Niragi Chishiya and Niragi are the parallels Arisu is the one standing at the edge, trying to choose what route to take just to realize that this is not even his road before turning around and walking his own one

Chishiya and Niragi are narrative foils Arisu is the one who disturbs that weird balance, makes them change and offers them a new way to face the world A new way that Niragi refuses to take but Chishiya does follow

Because both Chishiya and Niragi are completely alone, they both don't want to be anymore, but only Chishiya does something to achieve that in the end You get Niragi saying out loud that he doesn't want to be alone, but doing nothing about it and Chishiya taking Arisu's hand into starting his personal change, even if he never says it outloud THAT ONLY MAKES SENSE WITH ARISU BEING A DIFERENT KIND OF PLAYER
