i've been missing fruits basket so much recently. it really was such an amazing shoujo with so many layers to it. i miss kyo, tohru, yuki, rin, and haru so much. especially the trio...i really grew to become too attached to kyo, tohru, & yuki. it was such an emotional journey. kyo's storyline broke my heart. the slowburn was done so well. but also, the character development throughout the show, especially with yuki, was my favorite. the characters overcame their family trauma to get their happy ending...i just miss them so much.
i finished enies lobby arc!!
nico robin has become a favorite character of mine because of this arc! her backstory was so heartbreaking but so well written. i’m so happy she found a place to call home with friends who love her!!!!
the fights were amazing!! luffy using second & third gear was so cool! i loved seeing zoro using new techniques while fighting, he’s just very fun to watch to me! sanji’s fire leg was amazing also!! nami’s lightning technique was also really fun to watch!
seeing them say goodbye to merry made me so sad but i’m so happy they have a new ship along with a new member!! the crew are back together sailing the ocean and i’m excited to see what’s next!
shoyo’s eyes sparkling whenever he looks at tobio IS CRAZY TO ME!!! ever since that ONE match in middle school, he’s been fascinated with tobio. now that they play together, as a duo, as A TEAM his admiration is totally out of control. i just love how he makes it so clear that tobio IS an amazing player and he isn’t afraid to shout it from the roof tops. just like tobio sees shoyo’s skills, shoyo sees all of tobio’s hard work and is IN AWE!!! SHOYO WAS BEWITCHED MIND BODY AND SOUL FROM DAY ONE!
when i first saw you …
*hits you with a time travel quirk*
i love thinking about bakugo getting hit with a time travel quirk and his symbolic nightmares become a very tangible and chaotic new reality. sth sth learning how to move on as a better person without letting your past and shame control you, even if it's gonna follow you for the rest of your life in one way or another.
i don't think bakugo should atone repeatedly for his childhood sins, but i also don't really agree with the sentiment that their childhood wouldn't affect their adulthood. i think a lot of their little habits (the good and the bad) were formed during their childhood and as a result of their friendship and falling out, i think sometimes that catches them off-guard in their adulthood and leads to unexpected situations that require them to manage their emotions well so it doesn't end in unjust accusations and yeah.
I LOVE THEM SOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH
them!!! they!!!!!
this breaks my heart. he was just a kid who wanted to make his dad proud :(
Imagine waking up after a 3-year coma, in an unfamiliar place full of unfamiliar people, your body has completely changed, your voice changed, and all you can remember is the vivid memory of your family and the devastating events that occurred. He might’ve evolved physically, he is a teenager now, but the voice in his head is still the one of a child, Touya didn’t grow up mentally yet. The first thing Touya thought about was his family, how he felt like he wronged them and the terrible things he said, he wanted to apologise to them, he wanted to see dad again, he wanted to show him everything because his dad never made it to Sekoto peak. He was confused, scared, worried and these creepy strangers telling him that he can’t leave, that this is his new family, and he doesn’t know for what intentions he was brought here. Touya thinking of excuses as to why his dad hasn’t come to visit him, there must be a reason, and he tries to be understanding, because he cannot yet accept the harsh truth.
Rip my heart apart now will you? 🫠
i last wrote an update when i was midway through yorknew city arc. that arc as a whole was my favorite one! it was so much fun, and i loved how focused it was on kurapika's story.
i talked a lot about yorknew city arc in my last post, so i want to get into my thoughts on greed island! for starters, ever since it was mentioned in your new city, i was very excited to see how it would turn out
finding out that the game was actually a place you could travel to and experience the world was so interesting! it reminded me of jumanji and excited me to see how the story would unravel.
i know some people don't care for this arc because it isn't as "action-packed" as the previous one, but i have a soft spot for any type of training arc, and i feel that greed island could be put in that category!
killua and gon are already known to be quite strong. especially killua, with his intense assassin techniques. to be honest, i had been waiting for a moment when the two could finally put their limits to the test and become better acquainted with nen.
many new characters were introduced this time but bisky quickly became my favorite! her design was so cute, but i also loved how she WANTED killua and gon to improve their strength. the scenes with the greed island trio were so much fun to watch. killua and gon doing their best because they wanted to change and grow stronger while bisky was watching over them like a mother; it was just so moving!
the killugon moments in this arc were so heartwarming. from gon saying he was glad to meet killua, killua being the only one to hold the ball during the dodgeball game, to gon proudly saying killua was his best friend. they just became so attached in such a short time, and it's so beautiful to see. they just really grew on me this arc, and i'm so excited to see how their friendship grows stronger.
the new kagehina official arts have been so adorable and perfect!!! i love how it shows the little things they do together outside of practicing volleyball. not only are they inseparable on the court but also in their daily lives. they’re just so cute!!! i love when shoyo smiles so big and when tobio pouts in the background. it’s so THEM!!!
also this art hinting at the “you can fly higher” scene is so peak and perfect. tobio looking at shoyo so intently while shoyo’s probably rambling about something random. no matter what shoyo is doing, tobio will always look over at him. THIS IS PERFECT 😭😭
