The Realest Post I’ve Ever Seen

he’s so beautiful

SO REAL ABT KENZO’S ANGER REGULATION

He tries to be okay the whole time, to not show any bad emotion, that at some point he would just explode like an express pot. And we saw him trying to be kind but loosing his temper and getting quite agressive and even physical towards people. It’s such an interesting and human trait of his character.

getting back at you with 2, 5, 12 and 24 for Ochanomizu and (Kenzo) Tenma!

Omg that's cute the other half of the ships....

Character asks

Ochanomizu

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

Dude he's such a good dad. Whether it's PLUTO's hug or how sweet and supportive and protective he is in the 03 anime or the lengths he goes to in the manga supporting Atom he's just such a good parent!!! He's a sweetheart but he doesn't take shit lying down, he has such strong will and will fight for his kids.

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

So this is technically from Tenma's POV about Ochan but it's one that I do think of with respect to him a lot. Just on account that his smile is so powerful and yeah I too would yearn for that smile

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

I feel like he would be quick to forgive Tenma if he would only apologise. In my mind, despite how volatile things are with them, Ochan genuinely would be willing to start fresh if Tenma just asked. Hey babe I'm sorry will you take me back. like it would genuinely be that easy. He's making Tenma figure that out for himself though, otherwise it's not genuine.

24. What other character from another fandom of yours that reminds you of them?

Y'know I would say Kenzo in a lot of respects. They're both forces for such good, genius doctors in their own field, supportive adults (in my mind in a Tenma Swap AU Atom would end up with 2 of the best dads in the world LMAO)

In the interest of talking about some different guys: Picard from Star Trek the Next Generation! Is it partly because they are old men in their hair loss era? Maybe. But also again they are such egalitarian future-focused peaceful guys. Also Picard argued for robot rights in one of the best episodes of Star Trek period ("The Measure of a Man") so like they're the same guy basically is what I'm saying

Kenzo Tenma

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

His ability to inspire good and see the best in people. Honestly going into Monster I thought it would be more #edgy and dark, but because we have this sweetheart doctor protagonist it's instead easily one of the most hopeful stories I've ever enjoyed, truly teaching the sanctity and beauty of all life. Tenma is such a beacon of hope and he's able to spread that wherever he goes.

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

Ah man, this was hard. A lot of the songs I associate with him are specifically Guriten-flavoured...but then I remembered this song. It's one that makes me think of Tenma's earliest struggle with figuring out who he wanted to be, and coming to terms that the hospital he worked at was just using him. It's unsure, it's hurt, but it ends with a hopeful step forward.

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

He has very poor anger regulation sometimes. We only see it very briefly, but Tenma is deeply repressing negativity and when it does come out it's a little explosive. I especially feel like he has this sense he has to be "perfectly happy" all the time as a foreigner and is afraid to "look bad" as it would reflect worse on him, but as a result he has these meltdowns sometimes. It comes out more potently when he drinks, so he generally tries to avoid alcohol when around others.

24. What other character from another fandom of yours that reminds you of them?

Obligatory Ochan mention. But okay this is a bit of a weird one...Kaiji kind of?? Now Kaiji is a very different character, very scrappy very stupid very shithead. But it's the way that he has the ability to command such a powerful response from strangers and holds onto hope so strongly and cries and is so earnest...they are characters cut of a similar cloth despite how different they come off at first. Kaiji is just Tenma during his drunk era

I wish I could block tags from ao3. The filters are not enough I need to erase the tag from my view

this bag is A NEED I need all of those Grimmer pins

my Wolfgang Grimmer itabag in all its glory :)

GRIMMER LOVERS UNITE OMG

GRIMMER LOVERS ASSEMBLE 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️🦅🦅🦅

Guriten x Hozier >>>>

Grimmer talking about Tenma

I just read Carry me Awry for the first time and now I want to write some Lunge/Tenma

We should collectively give her a name since Urasawa didn’t give her one 🗿

MONSTER ACTORS AU HEADCANONS PT 2

Since a lot of people liked the last post abt actor au here’s the second part of it.

Tenma and Johan have opposed clothing style irl in difference of their clothes during the show; Johan is most likely to use shirts, jeans and t-shirts while Tenma is more likely to use suits and turtleneck sweaters. Like, during an interview, Johan admitted that turtleneck sweaters were uncomfortable because of the hot weather.

Epsilon and Johan are the same person (actor)

Rung (the Vietnamese Doctor) and Tenma are siblings irl

The cross dressing scenes in Prague where mostly performed by Nina’s actress but Johan’s actor was willing to dress as Nina too and he did once or twice mostly the scenes with Suk lmao

The actors ages:

Tenma- 31

Nina and Johan- 25

Eva- 30

Grimmer- 39

Lunge- 50

Rung (the Vietnamese Dr): 26 but she looks really young

Dieter - 11

Suk- 29

Lotte- 26 / Karl- 25

Martin- 36

Tenma would be a Giorgio Armani model

Nina took a lot of clothing from the set because she literally ADORES all the dresses she wore.

Eva is actually redhead but she dyed her hair (I took this idea bc Idk where I read, Eva was supposed to be redhead and I personally love the idea)

Tenma and Johan read together all of the Tenjoh fanfics. Johan is the one actually enjoying and wheezing and Tenma is all uncomfortable and shocked, he’d be like “why would they write that?”

In the other hand Tenma would read the Guriten fanfics and he’d be like so flustered but he’d enjoy it. (He’s the strongest Guriten shipper)

Of course the filming would be placed in Germany and Czech Republic and some moments are placed in France and Poland.

Lunge and Roberto get along really well out of the set, like they’re hanging out and joking around.

Tenma followed a very rigorous and restrictive diet to loose weight to represent the depression more realistically. And of course he grew his hair. Plus, before starting the filming, he didn’t want to grew his hair because he thought he wouldn’t look good, but through the series he discovered he actually loved it long and by the end of the series he stayed with his hair long (and the final scene where he has short hair again he was using a wig)

By the end, Lunge bought a beer for Grimmer (just like they couldn’t do in the series) (coping mechanism)

Grimmer came out as bisexual and a few months later Tenma came out as gay and the whole fandom started to make conjetures because they saw them together a lot of times.

I loved making these, pls tell me if you want me to keep working on this AU and If you have more hcs don’t be shy and share them 🤭

OMG TENMAS VA IS ALSO THERE HOLY FUCK
