Everything aside, the current state of bsd manga is absolutely hilarious from the point of view of Akutagawa specifically. You have no idea who you are or where you came from, only that you must guard those people you don't know against the evil spirits™. You get your ass handed to you by said evil spirits™ in the span of one chapter. You are currently alternating between getting punched, thrown, impaled, hung by the head, and stabbed. There is a guy next to you experiencing ten mental breakdowns all at once. The other guy you are supposed to fight against is half blabbering metaphysics nonsense, half talking about how much he loved spending time with another guy. You have been alive for a total of maybe two hours
3. Hakubo and Sumire. Mystery and yorishiro continue. How does this relate to Yugi?
Tsukasa is also a sacrifice to the demon hole in exchange for a wish, also a yorishiro in the form of a human. There is a difference in how Sumire was betrayed against her will, while Tsukasa died of his own free will.
Tsukasa sat alone in Hanako's boundary for a long time, calling for him, but he never came.
Most likely, Tsukasa has not met Amane since the very day of his death, and when he appears in the chapter with donuts, this is really the first time he was able to go free and enter the plot.
Tsukasa, unlike Sumire, is sure that Amane hates him, and does not consider himself significant to him, he is surprised when Amane begins to cry.
Tsukasa is also tired of his existence, he just has some goals that still keep him afloat, but having achieved them, he is just as ready to disappear if it will help others, close to him.
What is so good about Amane, because he is unbearable? Why did Tsukasa and Nene love him so much? Here it is, the irony. Sumire had no options, Nene and Tsukasa still get along with people easier
and nevertheless, love is blind.
Tsukasa is very unrestrained, and probably because he finally got out of prison and can control his and even other people's actions. Tsukasa does not ask to be remembered, but deep down he also wants at least some recognition of his value. Amane also suffers that he acted this way towards Tsukasa, he blames himself a lot, but at the same time also shifts part of the blame to his brother.
After all, it is his fault that he is fake, if everything were different, if Amane had lived a different life, he would not have done this. He, just like Hakubo, did not value the time he spent with his brother, and now he is stewing in his own guilt, while leaving Tsukasa alone in the locked boundary and not answering his call.
4. Aoi and Akane. Close since childhood.
These two were close like twins, growing up together since childhood. Aoi was a shy girl, while Akane was more easily approached by people, and as a result, she remained in his shadow.
At first, they grew up like normal children, and both acted completely normal, until one fateful day came...
The Clock Keepers recruited Akane by threatening to kill Aoi, and thus, he made a contract with them, becoming half-supernatural.
Here, I want to refer to the theory of friend if mine that Aoi died that day and Akane sacrificed his lifespan for her. [But he doesn't remember it. Come to think of it, the flashback abruptly ends with "do you want to gain the power to control time?", continuing the story from the perspective of an unreliable narrator - Akane. I say "unreliable" because it was easy for him to have his memory erased, or even have some of his memories fabricated.
It's worth remembering that the senior guardian can actually rewind time, deleting unnecessary memories. And I don't believe that the guardians of the clock choose a third one for fun. They probably have some kind of selection criteria. Besides, Akane is literally half supernatural, and I don't think that will go unnoticed. Most likely, his days are numbered, like Yashiro's. Maybe he wasn't supposed to die in the first place, but he probably sacrificed his lifespan to correct a terrible misunderstanding. He thinks that after graduation he will simply stop being a guardian of the clock and return to his normal life, but what if everything is played out in such a way that he does not remember the first and most important point of his contract: in exchange for Aoi's life, he gave up his future?]
Also, Akane is very traumatized by what happened. I already said that the reason why he clings to Aoi so madly could be his trauma that day. Just like how Tsukasa got fixated on the idea of "knowing more about Amane" because he discussed it before Kou traumatized him with his revelation, Akane got fixated on the idea of "enjoying the time spent with Aoi and confessing my love to her because I love her and want to be with her" because he also talked about it with Aoi before the Guardians put her in danger.
That's why he doesn't act like a normal person anymore, and that's why he's becoming less and less like his calm younger self. Akane made a contract with a supernatural in exchange for the life of a loved one and became half supernatural, changing internally, but mostly because of the trauma and fear of losing Aoi rather than the effects of the supernatural specifically.
The boy who came back to Aoi after that day was a slightly different person. He acted differently and hid a lot of things, and that's why there was a distance between them that grew wider as the years went by. This isn't an "Akane is hiding something" level problem, it's an "Akane has really changed a lot" level problem.
So Aoi, who was initially comfortable around him, starts to feel weird. She stops being playful and teasing around him like she used to because Akane has become so obsessed with the idea that she's slowly starts pushing him away.
Eventually, the tension reaches a breaking point and Aoi is pushed to such a stalemate that she lays hands on the person closest to her, Akane, because she thinks that will solve her problem.

Part 1
i’m seeing inuyasha and it’s actually so interesting the parallels between inuyasha with tetsusaiga and sesshomaru with tenseiga.
In inuyasha’s case, as a half-demon he isn’t as strong as other demons and also that isolated him from everyone. But his sword is strong, not only that it was made to protect, for that inuyasha needs to make real connections with others. it is directly connected with his character development. (at least up until this point)
On the contrary sesshomaru is already strong, but he isolated himself except for jaken who is there bc he is useful (not that jaken minds, that’s their power dynamic). For now he has only destroyed -how fitting- and looked for tetsusaiga since his sword doesn’t cut, but the opposite is for healing; something he doesn’t seem to know, probably because he hasn’t need it yet¿ So the purpose of tenseiga also leave room for him to grow.
Both swords help in what they are lacking and i find it cute, because it shows their father cared for them and left this as a help for them.
i’m sorry i had this idea in my mind while i watched the episode and i needed to talk with someone, but i’m the only one that hasn’t already watched inuyasha. so i will continue with episode 35 bye
edit: tenseiga saved sesshomaru i– that was ,,, i love it
Storm Bringer deleted scene
It is 2024 I am once again asking for a tsubasa reservoir chronicle anime remake
i'm sorry. the first time i rewatched the first episode of dcmk after reading bsd (more than 2 years ago) i came to the realization of why i like skk so much (maybe) and i really need to share my thoughts.
both shinichi and dazai are characters that are incredibly smart and chuuya with ran are recognized because of their fight abilities.
but let's not forget that ran and chuuya both are smart as well, they can definitely solve things on their own when they need to, but are often mischaracterized as dumb
SECOND: love at first sight vs. hate at first sight (i'm crying)
THIRD: the one that goes away
extra: womanizer guy
extra hc: just like shinichi fell in love first sight and ran noticed she was in love with him in the ny trip, i hc skk with dazai falling in love first and chuuya realising his feelings when dazai defects lol
pretty mentally unstable momma
always love this soukoku thing
the shoushimin s2 opening is so good, so sooooo good. i'm so exited for this season and urino isn't as annoying as in the novels when we isn't the narrator (≧▽≦)
This has been a most worthwhile evening 🍽
*break an arm or two out there kids!*
reviews something something the only place where i'm not a hater @/myotsune on twt
