Demon Slayer S4 Ep8

i just finished east blue saga!!

i thought it was a very fun start to the series!! i honestly liked it a lot more than i thought! the characters are fun, the story is great, just a very good watch!! arlong park is definitely my favorite arc in this saga! I LOVE THE STRAW HATS!!!

ARE YOU KIDDING MEEEEE??? this new haikyuu illustration made my day. SHOYO SMILING AT TOBIO….TOBIO AND KENMA TALKING…KUROO!!! the bond the first years have with nekoma makes me so happy. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH 😭😭😭🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

"he's better than hinata" doesn't mean shoyo is a bad player. it's been stated so many times from the beginning that shoyo was not at his best, he didn't have the training others did and compared to hoshiumi, shoyo WAS not the better player. HOWEVER, that does not mean that kageyama does not believe in shoyo. even though he saw someone who WAS better than shoyo, that didn’t mean tobio didn’t see his potential. in fact, it made him see that hinata could soar even higher with his help.

we all know hinata wasn’t at his peak during high school especially his first year, but kageyama saying hoshiumi was better wasn’t meant to be taken as kageyama being mean. it’s just a fact. despite that, kageyama still believed hinata can grow even more!

what made shoyo become the incredible player that he is was his determination. he had the DRIVE to become the best player he could be. it was a known fact shoyo was not at his 100% in high school and that is okay. tobio KNEW shoyo had so much more to give. the entire "you can fly even higher" scene is a testament to that. there are so MANY moments where tobio acknowledges shoyo’s skills. there’s even times where tobio is upset at shoyo because he has the ability to be amazing but just doesn’t know how to use his skills to his advantage.

just because tobio says hoshiumi is better than hinata does NOT mean tobio does not believe in him. the one thing that is constant in haikyuu is tobio’s faith in shoyo and shoyo’s faith in tobio.

watching hunter x hunter: yorknew city arc

I finally started watching hxh last week, which is so good. I have been wanting to watch something that would completely immerse me into the world, and I haven't had that since FMAB, but now I confidently say he has taken me in!

Currently in, towards the end of yorknew city arc, and it is 10/10. The music, the storyline, the worldbuilding, and just so much fun. My favorite characters are Gon, Killua, Kurapika, and Chrollo.

Gon was a favorite since the first episode; his overwhelming positivity and curiosity are just too infectious. killua, however, became my second favorite in the Zoldyck family arc after learning more about his life. When they reunited and went to Whale Island, it brought me so much joy. There's something so heartwarming about the two wanting to be friends and protect one another no matter the cost. The two of them have grown on me and i love watching killugon develop every few episodes!

Kurapika in the current arc I'm on is, in my opinion, the show's star! His net ability is so cool. I love episode 47 because we see him at his full potential. He's a great character striving to take back what his clan has lost. He's mentally and physically strong, and I hope he gets the justice he deserves.

In my opinion, Chrollo is a fantastic villain because he isn't outwardly sinister or violent. Unlike the others in the troupe, he keeps to himself, silently reading in a dark corner. However, this makes him much more intimidating. He doesn't need to be out and loud about his strength because he knows what he's capable of.

As of now, hxh is definitely exceeding my expectations, and I can't wait to see what else is in store!

DON'T FORGET 3.OCT.11

if i didn't write a post about FMAB today, it would have been a travesty.

FMAB is my favorite anime of all time! It's so well-written and impactful. Hiromu Arakawa put so much passion into her work that it could be felt from the first episode. not a day goes by when I don't think about Edward Elric and his journey to save his brother.

characters like Al, Winry, Roy, and Riza all have stories and flaws that make them so loveable and authentic. the cast is full of different personalities, and one of my favorite things about the series is watching the relationships grow with these characters.

the way FMAB goes about grief is so heartbreaking and raw. love, family, forgiveness, perseverance, all of these themes are so beautifully written. i'm happy i decided to watch FMAB earlier this year!! i will always love this story and wish i could go back and watch it for the first time again.

hakyona volume cover 24

I think many of us can agree that Kusanagi has made many beautiful covers throughout the years, but one cover that sticks out to me the most is volume 24.

It's so simple, but it highlights Hakyona's development. Hak has always been the one to protect Yona, from protecting her from falling off a cliff to using his super strength to protect her from invaders, and so on. But Yona has also gathered the strength to protect her loved ones. She's no longer the naive princess but now a powerful, independent woman who can not only defend herself but her loved ones too. As Hak is protecting Yona, Yona is protecting Hak.

These two will do anything to save one another. If it means putting them in harm's way, they will bravely put themselves in danger if it means their loved one is safe and sound. This cover is just so well done and beautiful; it makes me so happy!
