Goddamn. Akiba Maid War is such a good show. I will forever curse the way binge culture made everybody watch it like it was a flavor-of-the-week type deal because it's such a smart, funny, and emotional Yakuza parody with a lot of shit to say about idol culture and our customer service industries.
The manager from akiba maid war is one of my favorite characters of all time. No one does it like her. Every other character of her type I've ever seen has been a man and that's so profoundly boring.
She has no skills. she has no shame. she is greedy and always in debt. And she is obscenely confident and proud of herself for all of this.
In a perfect world there would be hundreds of these worthless shameless women, but in ours we have few, and we must treasure them.
Chuuya Sketch!
comic i made based on a vc conversation about "a stoner comedy where they hit buddha with their car"
I made a Fyodor version of this story :D
now that jimmy carter is dead can i just say what an absolute power move it was for him to run for governor of georgia with segregation as his platform, only to do a complete 180 once in office. insane
art block era!

Nobody doing it like sskk
what if you died for me and then returned as a vampire got possessed by another vampire then lost all your memories and then i die for YOU and repeat the dying words that you said to me to you and this causes you to remember who i am. and we are both boys. and have tried to kill each other. hashtag love wins
can't lie Dazai would've lost me after "you're at the airport" like pause can i get some lined paper so i can take some notes at least. "intersecting orthogonally" "sound attenuates rapidly in proportion to the cube of distance instead of the square" i just witnessed several ppl die and i'm 0.3 seconds from crashing out why are u using big words and throwing equations at me
Chia pet couple wins again.
do you think shadow was aware of his super strength when he stopped marinating in his tube ? since he can just flip buses i think it'd be funny if there had to be a learning curb
also the image of small crechure shadow being able to lift maria over his head is funny to me.
maybe gerald trips on some osha violation and when shadow goes to help him up he accidentally launches him into the ark's ceiling
i'm absolutely obsessed with this concept of overpowered tiny dude shadow pre-inhibitor rings. chaos and destruction everywhere
yuri in stem
I hate I when I get an idea for a novel. Like oh no here starts the slow sad slip n’ slide to dissapointment again.
A Christmas Carol reimagined as a yuri dating sim, which of these ghosts will you choose by the end of the night?
Secret route is Bob Cratchit
this is how i feel when ppl say genshin has diverse body types sorry
whoever came up with the 'crossing fingers behind your back nullifies a promise being made' thing should be given nobel prize for service to the visual artists depicting a character being untruthful or traitorous through shorthand
The fact that Ekko went back in time god knows how many times again and again to get jinx to not kill herself only to end up losing her again makes me INSANE
I wanna gush about akiba maid war sooooo bad
It's so underrated and unacknowledged it makes me sad
It's an anime about maid cafes, but also it's about gang wars and one poor girls dive into a violent world when she only wanted to be a café maid
And it has literally NO fanservice, the closest thing would be the manager getting naked to prove her loyalty unprompted, and she's a grown adult and an absolute looser
And they play the maid gangs COMPLETELY STRAIGHT, these girls are killing each other and treating getting your hair cut like loosing a finger
But when it's funny it's actually funny. One of the characters is a washed up gyaru, there's a girl who's lived as a panda for like 15 years, the best maid in their Cafe basically sold her soul to doing it, and the manager is again a massive looser constantly
And the music is very good! Even the dub does a great job of singing the songs in English!
And the ending felt satisfying
Honestly, it's breaking bad if instead of selling meth they ran a maid Cafe that kinda sucked
Anyway, oinky doinky smooch, moe moe kyun. Watch Akiba Maid War
Manager propaganda for the swagless competition!
Do you know Reigen from mob psycho 100? Do you know Tatsumi from zombieland saga? Do you know Kobeni from chainsaw man? all 3 are in this bracket; and she’s like a mix of those 3. In 1 CHARACTER! triple the power!! triple the lack of swag!!!
She is the manager of a maid cafe that’s basically part of the mafia. She’s always in debt and getting toyed with by higher-ups. She has no dignity and the moral backbone of a caramel flan. No one on her team respects her.
(she wasn't even ordered to strip naked she just did it because she has the urge to be as pathetic as humanely possible)
She gives inspiring and confident speeches and then when what she preached fails miserably she turns around and gives the exact opposite speech just as inspiringly and confidently. She canonically says "leave it to me!" and ruins everything. She is this:
but a woman #feminism
(this happens 30 seconds later btw:
)
She made a deal to lose in a rigged contest and she couldn’t even manage to lose properly. With her pancreas on the line btw (she's fine). When someone complained about how little food they had (because they have no money) she started talking about "you know, back during the war," and got ignored and talked over immediately. She bought a cake for her employee’s birthday and secretly ate a third of it before the event.
The 1 day she was away, her team turned the mafia hierarchy upside down and rose to the top. Meanwhile she was fishing convincing herself they must be hopeless without her and then hallucinating a fish telling her how useless she is (<- literally had a reigen separation arc) (also when she caught a fish it slapped her face). When she came back and saw the situation she started bragging about how that’s one of her maids.
All of that in less than 12 episodes! Also she has a name apparently? but in the credits she's just listed as 'manager'
We need more cringefail women! Vote for the Manager in @swaglesscompetition 2023!!
I’ve been rewatching bsd and I cannot hide it any longer…THEY’RE ALL GAY! How the hell did I get through this show before? Every single time Dazai is on screen with chuuya they’re practically undressed, about to jack off. And don’t even get me started on atsushi and akutagawa.
I fucking hate this stupid show "my blade traverses space and time" shut the fuck up with your jojo ass powers like can you motherfuckers just be normal and calm down with the anime bullshit, can we go back to sskk punching people in the face at the same time, like that was literally all I needed
"my blade cut through to the past" fuckkk youuuuu
