Hi there! This is such a random question, but I’ve recently watched Wind Breaker (haven’t read the manga) and was wondering if Chika ever makes other facial expressions and/or is less one-note?? I’d assume his personality is just quite mute but was still curious if later on he has more variation

He does make some other expressions sometimes, but usually he remains on that serious/expressionless state, he did grin like a damn maniac on his fight against Umemiya, the biggest changes in expression aside from that are his eyes widening in excitement while still keeping that "void" quality they seem to have

i need you to know all of ur wbk takes are Right and Awesome and especially ur suo takes muah muah im so happy i found ur blog

Well, I am glad you like them so much, while I doubt I'm right about everything, I'm glad to know someone shares my vision of the manga and of our beloved mystery boy!!

As a classic Zelda fan, the controversial things in the Switch remake of Link’s Awakening were the shield, Moblin and Link’s cutscene designs being changed entirely to match newer games if you want to hear?

I know people are already worried for the Moblin designs in Ocarina of Time being completely redone in the remake.

Honestly, I never got around to playing the original version of Link's awakening,but I am interested in hearing about the changes that were made.

I do think that the art style they chose translated the pixel experience as well as it could, it does give me that nostalgic feeling from playing Alttp or Minish Cap as a kid.

And yeah, I'm kind of worried about the Oot remake, not so much for the art style (though I have my gripes with it as well, I'm willing to overlook if the game is accurate enough) but it's the accuracy of it that worries me, that they'll change cutscenes or something like that, character designs in general...

To be honest, I don't think this particular style they've chosen fits Oot from my point of view, the more somber ambience I could understand for Majora's Mask maybe, but Oot, although having it's somber and dark parts, should at the end feel brighter, that and Link's character design, to me it feels to generic, I don't think it would have been hard to make the boy more angular and keep his nose shape. But as I said, of the rest of the game is just the same but remade in the new style, then I'll take it, probably won't buy a switch 2 for that, they'll have to remaster (not remake) Twilight Princess for me to consider getting a switch 2.

Hanahaki disease is a psychosomatic illness. It's a thing that your body does in response to stress over constantly repressing/concealing your feelings in settings with high background magic. It's like you've been ignoring pain for a long time and suddenly your vision starts going dark, because your affected body is just YANKING on random alerts trying to get you to PAY ATTENTION there is a PROBLEM. Yes the flowers do really exist. So do non-magical psychosomatic symptoms. The flowers aren't special.

This does of course open up the trope to options for non-romantic concealed feelings. Which I think is great. There is something viscerally satisfying about the person who seems so outwardly chipper coughing and hacking and spitting up Depression Flowers so now everyone has to know they're hurting. Isn't there?

Added some more songs to the playlist!!!!

[asofspades]

Some text posts for today!!

Mitski reference in the last one, with a song I have on my Suo playlist no less

[ari-tan]

suo's going to cry. definitely, 100%. i just dunno what type of crier he would be, i mean:

if suo cries loudly and visibly, then it'd be a brutal reminder that for all his maturity and untouchability, he's still a 15 year old boy. it'd be wildly out of character, but it'd fit the emotional climax being set up in this arc really well.

if suo is the type to try and stifle his sobs and only cry when his face is hidden in someone's shoulder, then it'd definitely align with how he has lived his life repressing his feelings and desires so far. it wouldn't be as much of a reality slap as the first option, but it's the more likely one given what we know of suo.

[asofspades]

Worse yet, he starts trying to stifle his sobs and hide his eye and ends up crying loudly because he just can't keep it in anymore.

Have some textposts because it's 2am and I've been awake for 19 hours

[asofspades]

Woke up at 7am to help load stuff in the car, tried Focus on my thesis until like 1pm, then got to my brother's house to bring lunch and ended up staying to help out, we wrapped up at 12:30 am, had to unload all of our tuff we brought there (cleaning supplies, power tools, leftovers, a fan, first aid kit, a ladder...), it's 1:30 am and I still have to take a shower🥲

So, 17 and a half hours awake, 5 spent on my thesis (with the half brain cell I have and my whole body in pain, plus my period should be coming soon and I'm feeling it), the rest working my ass off, but at least that's over now

Only now when my thesis is done I have to go buy a new wardrobe, mine had wormwood, reorganise my clothes, deep clean my room and take out the books from their shelves to do a proper cleaning.

And then I have to sign up for a freelance scientific text translation thing, and start giving my sisters English lessons for their B2 this next academic year.

My whole body hurts (⁠+⁠_⁠+⁠)

[asofspades]

More yummy textposts

[asofspades]

More text posts while I wait for my parents to give me a call to go help them, could happen anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour, love the uncertainty. Of course, it's Suo again

[asofspades]

I bring textposts!! Suo centric obviously

Last one is also a reminder for the side of the fandom so intent on talking about Suo like he's a villain and not a 15 year old.

[poppy5991]

No wonder why he’s annoyed by Tsugeura. That dude is LOUD and Suo is SLEEP-DEPRIVED.
