#1 FAN

Veldora x ReincarnatedMangaka!Reader

summary ☆ You never expected your biggest fan to be a dragon.

─────────────୨ৎ─────────────

Meeting you was the last thing Veldora thought would happen.

The second you said your name, he froze. Like, completely. His brain just went blank for a solid ten seconds.

He’d read your manga a hundred times while stuck in Rimuru’s memories. It basically saved him from dying of boredom. And now here you were. In front of him. Real. Breathing.

“You’re… YOU?!” he blurts out, eyes wide and sparkly like a kid meeting their favorite hero. You have no idea what’s happening.

He starts rambling. “Your work! Your art! The emotional arcs! The character development!” It’s the most dramatic thing ever, and you’re just standing there like “…thanks?”

He keeps calling you “Sensei” by accident. Rimuru’s watching in the background, trying not to laugh because he’s never seen Veldora this flustered.

When you tell him you don’t remember much about your past life, he looks heartbroken for like two seconds—then proudly declares, “Then I shall remind you! I’ve memorized every panel!”

From that day on, he treats you like a living legend. He’ll randomly quote your manga at people who don’t even know what manga is.

And yeah, he totally follows you around Tempest now. Not because he’s obsessed or anything… (he absolutely is).

Sendoh Akira: A Character Analysis (Translated)

One of the best and most memorable Slam Dunk character analyses I’ve ever read was actually an answer to a question hilariously titled: “How do I marry Sendoh Akira?” (Author: 木子妞 - Link). The first half of the answer was particularly incisive and made me consider things I'd never noticed about Sendoh.

The original is in Chinese but here's an English version of the first half thanks to a nifty translating tool (I've edited for clarity and brevity; parts in bold for emphasis). Let's dive in!

~ Start of translation ~

Question: How do I marry Sendoh Akira?

Answer: 1) MENTAL SPEED

First, you have to be excellent - not in a Mary Sue protagonist way with incredible beauty and tremendous wealth etc.— these aren’t relevant in Sendoh’s eyes. Instead, your emotional intelligence needs to be genuinely outstanding.

Why? Because it’s important to understand Sendoh Akira as a person, and he’s not an easy person to understand. I’m not talking about his interests either; those are secondary; it's mainly about understanding his inner world.

The thing is, Sendoh is actually a very lonely person, and I think this loneliness is not by choice. No one in Ryonan really understands him; they are not on his level and don’t genuinely understand him. Case in point: in the match against Kainan, right at the end of regulation time Sendoh went for a dunk but deliberately went at a slower speed to allow Maki to catch up to him.

Sendoh’s idea of drawing a foul from Maki to turn the shot into a 2+1 would’ve meant that Ryonan would win the match by a point. But in that entire arena, only Maki, Fujima and Aida understood this plan. Even Coach Taoka got excited about getting into overtime without realizing that if the 2+1 plan failed, Ryonan would almost certainly lose.

Sendoh's mind works too fast for most people to keep up with, and his standards are high. He also can’t be bothered to explain more than is necessary and so as a result is forced into solitude. Which is why if you want to draw his attention, you need to be sharp enough to keep up with him mentally — imagine how high your IQ must be for that!

2) IDOLISATION

Second, don’t treat Sendoh like a genius or idealise him too much, and definitely don’t put him on a pedestal to worship. Accept the real him, including his flaws. And there are a few.

For one, Sendoh is quite stubborn. In the aforementioned match against Kainan, Maki at one point said, "Don’t think I'll let you dunk easily." To which Sendoh responded, "I'll definitely dunk to show you. Just once in this match..." And he was as good as his word, pulling off the dunk right at the end of regulation time as part of the aforementioned 2+1 plan.

Sendoh also holds grudges. In the prefecture match against Shohoku, after Miyagi managed to score against him, Miyagi mocked him, saying, "Did you think I'd always wait for you to block?" Later, when Sendoh noticed Shohoku was running into foul trouble, who did he target first? Who did he go after to draw another foul? Miyagi.

Sendoh can also be petty. When Rukawa scored quickly, everyone marveled at the speed of his shooting that even he, Sendoh, couldn't block, and Sendoh responded by scoring right away using the exact same technique as Rukawa.

In other words, the so-called basketball genius/living legend isn’t necessarily the real Sendoh Akira himself. Sendoh the basketball player gets lionised a lot but the real Sendoh actually has a temper.

The main difference that sets him apart from others is that he isn’t as easily bothered by things. Sendoh is more mature than his peers, and he’s able to keep most of his emotions in check or bury them deeper so it's harder for people to notice them.

But if you really want to draw his interest on the romantic front, you’ll need to treat him as an ordinary person. That’s how you'll earn his respect. To be clear, it’s not about playing hard to get; it’s about seeing him with a calm mind.

Because of Sendoh's relatively mild temperament and easygoing nature, when it comes to piquing his genuine romantic interest, Sendoh Akira is the most difficult man to deal with in all of Slam Dunk. Much more difficult than Rukawa.

Rukawa can be lured by some top class basketball intel, but Sendoh Akira has almost no weak points to exploit, precisely because so little gets him worked up. The only seeming weakness is his loneliness.

If you can 1) make him feel understood and 2) do so without needing to say it out loud, then you might have a chance with him. These two points are prerequisites. And if you feel you could pull off both points and truly love him to the point of marrying no one but him, then continue reading for some specific methods, though they're not guaranteed to work.

~ End of translated first half ~

We'll skip the second half since it's not that relevant in terms of character analysis. (But it is worth a read if you are a Sendoh fan. It covers a rather elaborate plan!)

On the topic of Sendoh, I would also add that him misremembering Sawakita's name isn't pure coincidence/a gag but perfectly in keeping with his character IMO. He seems the type that is competitive right in the middle of a match but once the match is over, he doesn't hold on to losses as tightly as, say, Rukawa. I mean, let's face it. If the same thing happened to Rukawa (losing big time to Sawakita) you can bet he'd remember Sawakita's name till the end of time. But Sendoh doesn't take such losses quite so personally, and that's why he'd be the type to misremember the name of someone who beat him.

just realized the x reader fandom for "Clean Freak! Aoyama-kun" is non-existent lmaoo

[slamdunkhcs]

the misunderstanding of kaede rukawa

The two main characters of Slam Dunk are characterized as opposites; with Hanamichi Sakuragi being a boy with a loud and flamboyant personality, while Kaede Rukawa is a polar opposite, being rather quiet and asocial. Rukawa is considered by Sakuragi to be unlikable and rude, and this is true to an extent. However, I want to discuss aspects of Rukawa’s personality aside from him being basketball-centric. While his other qualities are shown rather subtly throughout the series, I do think he has some depth and development as a character.

When Rukawa is first introduced in Slam Dunk, he is portrayed to be “mean”; telling Haruko to leave him alone and that she was being annoying. He is instantly deemed as unlikable to Sakuragi, but I believe that Rukawa’s actions and attitude was justified. He had simply been sleeping and minding his business, but he was jumped out of nowhere and had to fight some randoms. That would make anyone irritated— and then Sakuragi was picking a fight with him as well. While what he said to Haruko was harsh, I think that he had already been bothered enough and he just wanted some peace.

I also want to note that when Sakuragi and Akagi had their one on one, Rukawa’s specifically shown to think “Sakuragi’s not bad”. I think this shows that even though him and Sakuragi weren’t on good terms, he acknowledged skill when he saw it.

I wouldn’t say he went out of his way to be friendly to Sakuragi, he didn’t instigate first either. When Sakuragi was struggling with doing a lay-up shot and “apologized” to Rukawa and asked him to demonstrate, he did it. He could have easily told Sakuragi “Nah” and went off to do his own thing (me personally I would have done that if the dude that tried fighting me did that), but he didn’t. I think that showed Rukawa has some maturity.

While him and Sakuragi didn’t initially get along well, their relationship did develop over the course of the series. I think that as Sakuragi got more serious about basketball, Rukawa noticed that too. He still didn’t go out of his way to be nice to Sakuragi, but he did “praise” him from time to time (such as when he said that he didn’t do bad for an idiot), or when Rukawa told him that Shohoku losing against Kainan wasn’t Sakuragi’s fault and that he played as well as everyone expected him to. I believe that shows Rukawa didn’t necessarily hate Sakuragi, and that he had some care for him as a teammate.

Their biggest moment in their relationship was when Rukawa passed the ball to Sakuragi in the last few seconds against Sannoh. While I wouldn’t say Rukawa never passes (as he is shown to pass to people when he believes they can score, such as Akagi or Mitsui), he isn’t going to pass to someone just for the sake of it. He’s only shown to pass when he believes that the other person will score, and Sakuragi isn’t necessarily his #1 pick. I believe that his pass to Sakuragi shows his belief in Sakuragi’s skills.

The first time Rukawa was outwardly “nice” towards Sakuragi was during their high five, which I think happened in the heat of the moment, as they switched up their attitudes right afterwards. However; it showed how close they had gotten.

I also want to mention how Rukawa and Sakuragi talked on the beach. Rukawa was just going on a run — he could’ve just ignored Sakuragi and kept running, but he chose to go up to Sakuragi and show off his shirt. I think that shows that Rukawa now views Sakuragi as someone he’s close to, though he would never directly admit it.

Rukawa was also fairly respectful towards his other teammates. He had respect for Akagi, referring to him as “captain”, and him and Ayako appear to be on good terms.

I don’t think Rukawa was on particularly good terms with Miyagi and Mitsui (due to the latter’s gang fight with the basketball team, and the former being similar to Sakuragi), I believe he grew to respect both of them as teammates.

Though Rukawa isn’t outgoing with his teammates, he does grow closer to them: one of the biggest moments of this being him asking them to do that “we are” thing to hype them all up. I believe that showed his care for them as he wanted them to get their spirits up.

Also, with Haruko, I think Rukawa just isn’t interested in girls since he’s devoted to his sport. But I do think he can interact with girls, since him and Ayako talk and they have friendly interactions. I feel like if Haruko had approached Rukawa if he was in a better mood (aside from when she approached him when he got injured), they could have talked more. Rukawa doesn’t seem annoyed when Ayako talks to him, and he responds to her. So I think depending on Haruko’s approach, they could have been friendly with each other.

In addition, I think two other things that showed other aspects of Rukawa is his music taste and his love for cats (something I have already posted about).

On Rukawa’s commutes to practice/school, he’s shown with a Sony Walkman, listening to songs by Prince. The two songs Rukawa is listening to on his commute are Diamonds and Pearls and New Power Generation , both made by Prince. Diamonds and Pearls is a love ballad, while New Power Generation is more upbeat. These songs seemed surprising to me, since I didn’t think Rukawa would be the type to listen to them. But I think that this showed he was multifaceted, even if his thoughts weren’t shown much in the story.

When Rukawa is walking back home after watching the Kainan vs Ryonan match, he sees a black street cat. While I expected him to just look at it and keep walking, Rukawa got on his knees to try and pet it. The one he encountered was just some street cat he could’ve chosen to ignore, but he seemed to want to pet it. He also seemed reactive when the cat didn’t want to be pet, and this surprised me since he’s usually unbothered and he normally doesn’t want attention from anyone. I believe this and Rukawa’s music taste portray him to have more depth than what is shown on the surface.

Rukawa’s lack of thoughts being shown in the story (with his thought bubbles often just saying “…”) make him come off as “mysterious”, as we rarely know what he is thinking or feeling. This leads to Rukawa coming off as not having much substance on the surface, and is what made Sakuragi label him as boring and unlikable. However, I believe Rukawa is very misunderstood, and that he isn’t what Sakuragi makes him out to be.

[slamdunkhcs]

In your opinion is there a possibility of rukawa not being ace?from the manga you can see basketball is all he thinks about,from that maybe we can assume that he has no interest in getting in relationships but what about physical attraction?one scene that took me by surprise is his reaction to ayako kissing haruko,he was staring at them and he looked intrigued?interested?curios?idk because it wasn't revealed was he was actually thinking,like in a lot of scenes.am I reading way too much into this lol

exploring rukawa’s sexuality + rukawa in a relationship

I would like to preface this by mentioning Rukawa’s age. Rukawa is 15 years old throughout the series (as his birthday is January 1, and he’s a first year). At that age, you’re likely not going to be very sure on relationships or even be ready/interested in love. And I think Rukawa’s age is part of the reason why he doesn’t seem very interested in a relationship.

The moment that the anon mentioned is when Ayako was teasing Haruko, and then kissed her as a joke. The whole team reacted to it, including Rukawa.

I was surprised that he reacted to this, but he seemed pretty confused (and curious) about what they were doing.

Rukawa’s thoughts are rarely shown throughout the series, so I feel like it’s hard to deduce whether Rukawa could or could not be in a relationship.

However, I believe that he isn’t interested in one (at least currently). Again, I think his age is a factor to this, and also because of him being focused on his sport. I think that just because he isn’t interested rn, doesn’t mean that he’s not attracted to anyone.

I actually believe Rukawa would be good in a relationship but the problem with him is that he simply isn’t interested in one (as he’s focused on other things). And he isn’t the type that’d get into one just for the sake of it. I think he’d have to be ready for one AND interested in the girl.

Rukawa is shown to invest heavily into things he likes. He has a sony walkman (which cost a LOT at the time) because he likes music, he has expensive Jordans because he likes basketball, he spends all his time playing basketball because he likes it.

I think this can apply to a relationship too.

I think if he was mentally ready for a relationship AND there was someone he was interested in, he wouldn’t treat her bad or anything. I think he would put effort into a relationship, it’s just that he isn’t in the current position for one

In the series, he doesn’t interact with any girls (just Ayako) because they don’t go up to him. He has a fan club, but he doesnt know about it and they haven’t approached Rukawa personally. I think if a girl DID approach him and she wasnt annoying or anything, they could have some conversation.

I believe when he gets older, he has the possibility of getting into a relationship (as he’ll be more mature and further into his basketball career).

request ☆ may i please request anything romantic with Rimuru, please?? there's so little of him out there, i'm dying of starvation..

an ☆ fr lmao, petition to make the tensura fandom is so dry(⁠;⁠´⁠∩⁠`⁠;)

─────────────୨ৎ─────────────

Downbad!Rimuru always finds himself staring at you. Whether you’re talking, laughing, or even just walking by, he’s completely mesmerized. He doesn’t even realize he’s doing it half the time.

Downbad!Rimuru constantly tries to impress you, even in small ways. If you like a certain food, he’ll make sure it’s available all the time. If you mention liking a certain color, he might wear it more often or decorate Tempest with it. He just wants to make you happy!

Downbad!Rimuru gets a bit nervous when Shion and Shuna notice how much attention he gives you. They might tease him or even get a bit jealous themselves lol.

Downbad!Rimuru asks his friends for advice on how to get closer to you. He’s a powerful leader but feels clueless when it comes to romance, so he’ll ask Shuna, Shion, and even Veldora for tips. He might try their advice, but it usually leads to funny or awkward situations.

Downbad!Rimuru always remembers the little things about you. If you mention liking a specific place or a certain flower, he’ll find a way to bring it into your day. It’s his way of showing you that he cares, even if he doesn’t say it outright.

Downbad!Rimuru gets jealous easily, even if he doesn’t show it outright. If someone else makes you laugh or grabs your attention, he feels a little sting in his heart.

Downbad!Rimuru dreams about a future with you. He thinks about what life would be like if you were by his side forever. Even though he’s busy leading Tempest, he often finds himself daydreaming about spending quiet moments with you, just the two of you.

Downbad!Rimuru secretly practices confessing to you. He’ll rehearse what he wants to say, imagining the perfect moment. But every time he sees you, he gets so nervous that he just ends up smiling awkwardly instead. Maybe one day, he’ll gather the courage to tell you how he feels.

Downbad!Rimuru who just can’t hide how much he cares. Everyone around him notices how he lights up when you’re around, even if he tries to act cool. You’ve become his weakness in the sweetest way possible. He just hopes that maybe you’ll feel the same way:)

VEL JR.

Veldora x reader

request ☆ This idea is from this work by @luxthestrange. I thought it was really cute so I made a short fic about it hehe, I'm just a beginner writer though so don't expect much. (⁠─⁠.⁠─⁠|⁠|⁠）

─────────────୨ৎ─────────────

You were wandering through the marketplace of Tempest, just taking in the sights. The day had been quiet, and you felt like you could use some fresh air. As you strolled through the stalls, something caught your eye—a small, brightly colored creature moving slowly inside a glass container.

Curious, you stepped closer, peering down at it. It was a baby gecko, no bigger than your palm, with bright yellow and orange scales. The small creature was adorable with its big round eyes that blinked up at you, and it stuck out its tiny tongue in the cutest way. You couldn’t help but gush over it

It was strange, but the little gecko reminded you of someone. You chuckled to yourself as the image of Veldora popped into your head. The thought of comparing Veldora to a tiny lizard was amusing.

And before you knew it, you had bought the gecko and taken it back to your home.

You spent the next few hours playing with the little guy. He climbed onto your hand and then onto your shoulder, blinking his wide eyes and sticking out his tongue every now and then. He was cute, much cuter than you expected, and your heart softened every time he looked at you.

When Veldora eventually found you later that day, you were by the couch, happily admiring your new pet. Was he impressed? Absolutely not.

“It’s not even that cute,” he said, crossing his arms with a slight frown as you held the gecko in your hands.

You raised an eyebrow, teasing him, “Are you jealous?~”

Veldora scoffed “Jealous? Ha! As if I’d be jealous of a tiny lizard.”

You smirked, knowing Veldora better than that. He was always full of confidence, but there were times when he could get a bit… possessive. You were sure this was one of those times.

As the day went on, you spent more time with the baby gecko, who you had lovingly named Vel Jr. It was playful and energetic, often climbing onto your shoulder and sticking out its little tongue. Veldora, meanwhile, was keeping a close eye on the new pet, though he tried to act like he didn’t care.

Later that evening, you were sitting by the fireplace, still enamored with Vel Jr., when Veldora finally lost his cool. He stood up and stomped over to you, pointing at the gecko.

“Listen to me, attention thief!” he growled, his voice full of dramatic frustration.

Veldora Jr., looking up from your hands, blinked its big eyes and stuck out its tongue in the cutest way possible. You couldn’t help but laugh.

“Aww, Veldora, look! He’s so cute,” you said, holding the gecko up for him to see.

Veldora huffed, crossing his arms again. “That little thing? It’s nothing compared to me!”

You smiled, placing the gecko gently back in its terrarium. Then, you walked over to Veldora, wrapping your arms around him.

“Don’t worry, Veldora,” you whispered, resting your head on his chest “You’re still my favorite dragon.”

Veldora’s looked away embarrassed, though he tried to keep up his tough act. “Of course I am,” he muttered, though his hand reached up to ruffle your hair affectionately. “No lizard could ever replace me.”

You grinned “You’re right. No one could ever take your place.”

SOLITARY LADY

request ☆ Dino with a primodial demon fem!reader who is a mad scientist and is a solitary person? You can always go for another one if you don't want dino. Thankyouuu berry-much.

an ☆ hii, sorry if this one is short, I haven't really read the ln of tensura so I don't know much about Dino's personality but I hope this will suffice huhu. Also since the primordial demons have a designated color I assigned her pink since it's my fave and I just gave her powers like Hillis Inoaden from solitary lady:3

─────────────୨ৎ─────────────

You were known for your brilliance, a primordial demon with unmatched abilities. But unlike the others, you didn’t flaunt your power or seek battles to prove your strength. You preferred solitude, working tirelessly on your experiments, and living in your secluded lab.

When Dino first met you, he didn’t know what to make of you. He was used to powerful beings being loud or imposing, but you were… different. You didn’t try to impress anyone, and your soft pink aura didn’t scream “danger.”

You didn’t care for Dino or his reputation. You considered him a lazy fool, beneath your intellect. You saw him as an annoyance, a pest who interrupted your work with nonsensical chatter and pointless questions. Dino’s laid-back attitude grated on your nerves as you focused on your research. Every time he’d visit, you’d roll your eyes at his laziness and send him away, claiming he was disturbing your important work.

Dino started coming around more, finding your stubbornness amusing. He’d nap in your lab or offer to taste-test the snacks you made. Even though you pushed him away, he always returned with a smile and some excuse about how your place was “more relaxing than anywhere else.”

Slowly, you started noticing his dedication. Dino was lazy, sure, but there were moments when he showed surprising insight, asking questions about your experiments that weren’t as dumb as you thought. He’d bring you rare materials for your research and actually listen when you explained your latest findings.

Maybe he wasn't such a nuisance after all..
