📻 ~ have you heard?
 the broadcasting club opened up
   a confessions booth . . .
ft. @lyingintheclouds, blog maker extraordinaire & shijima mei lover
pls be civil towards others. you may state your dislike for certain things, but do not insult others because of it. similarly, when you think someone is wrong, please consider not pointing it out*
yes, we will allow confessions such as 'i hate/love [character]'. however, to prevent walls of the same statement, please provide some kind of meaning other than plainly stating you [something] a character and moving on*
avoid spamming the askbox. if one person sends too many asks, i may wait random intervals before posting them
these guidelines are not exhaustive (and i’m a very lenient person), but please do your best to follow them so that we can keep this blog as safe and non-toxic as possible ! tysm ♡
concerns/suggestions? please voice them to us privately . . .
 〜 other notes
the asks of this blog do not reflect the mod's personal opinions or morals. unless i reply to a post/send an ask with my own account, i do not identify with any people that send their thoughts to this blog. please tell me directly through asks or messages if you think i’m being biased; i will do my best to resolve it all
*this is meant to be a place where free speech is encouraged within this fandom; if you think someone is misinformed, you can say so in the comments, or even better, not say so at all. however, what we will not condone is insults and derogatory language. if this happens, please state that you think they are wrong without going forward to excessively degrade them.
*there is leeway with how much you can get away with, though.
here is a comparison:
A: i think mitsuba fans are so annoying they seem so convinced that mitsukous healthy and nice when its just as abusive as other ships [lists examples]
B: f mitsuba fans i hate you all so much
while B would be deleted, A may get through. however, should A go on to insult mitsuba fans even further, i would probably delete that too. a small bit of criticism is fine; too much and you’re ruining the vibe. please keep your asks confined to nontoxic language as possible, ty
*i will do a couple of these a couple times a week, but if there’s an overly large load of people saying the same thing i will neglect to answer them
I know this is an unpopular opinion but the newer jshk art style is so much better than the old one in my eyes. When they switched out making pictures stand out with flowers by just making them look really pretty latched onto my heart; even if that one’s not all that recent. and the way the thick outlines warp around the characters and how they lend themselves to the shading has my heart. The inclusion of shading- and detailed shading at that- is just breathtaking. It feels like they took everything that helped the beautiful art style stand out at first and multiplied it by 11. The only change I don’t really feel great about is how they sacrificed a lot of the more unique facial features to make the characters more expressive, I mean I get the reasoning and it seems like they didn’t change the adults too much but I’m not a big fan of when characters look that similar
i push too much expectations on the anime. i keep getting disappointed when my favorite scenes aren't done "justice" or don't come off as impactful as the manga. honestly, i brought this upon myself. i keep deluding myself thinking that if some scenes were good in previous eps surely it will get better. sigh* seeing their limited budget, i shouldn't expect so much from it or blame the team. it's still good but will probably never live up to what I want from it....
i just came back to the fandom and i noticed an issue in recent posts of the tag but i didn't want to post about it since i don't really interact here a lot. so i found this blog and thought to send my thoughts here as a confession
it's rude for a person to send asks about THEIR aus and hcs on other people's blogs unprompted. especially if they are really long and detailed. at best it comes across as tone deaf and puts the owners of those blogs in an uncomfortable position, but at worst it feels like that person is doing it on purpose so their ideas are in popular blogs instead of just making posts about them on their own blog
i really don't think these people had bad intentions but it still feels weird to me but i don't know if i'm exaggerating or not....
(sorry for any mistakes english is not my first language)
Man I'm so sad Aoi & Akane far shore scene didn't quite hit like the manga to me......I'm not sure what, it was alright, the animation was good, but it didn't feel as impactful.
I'm a bit scared for the Teru and Akane confrontation next week.....hope it will surpass my expectations as of now (no coloring effect for immersion in the shot we got from where they got off as of now).
Does anyone else think it's insane that SakuHiko is one of the canon pairings but Natsuhiko's interactions with Sakura are so weird only a very small part of the fandom enjoys them?
Their official arts are good and they even get some interesting stories in twitter AUs, but AidaIro fumbled their romantic chemistry so badly in canon those are completely overlooked beyond "wow Sakura looks really pretty here" (she always does but that's not the point)
I think they were going for a loyal knight x princess dynamic but sometimes it shows like that and other times it's just Natsuhiko being annoying about women
i kind of like tsumitsu. it's interesting to think about how those two would somehow get together?? or even just be friends. you all know what happened in ashk lmao imagine if they tried to date!! expand your minds!!! be creative!!!!
...we need more Katakuri enjoyers. I specifically need Katakuri enjoyers. Because Katakuri is cool. And the new episodes are a chance for Katakuri enjoyers to come out of their hidden spot.
