I'm gonna rant about something fandom unrelated, i need to get this out of my system since I'm so upset right now, actually I've been upset since yesterday (I can't rant on my main twitter or alt since my friend is following me there)

So my friend has been pushing me to date this guy, he's nice and all but the thing is, I'm not really interested. She kept setting us up together and when I told her I wasn't interested, she told me not to be "picky" about it and told me to try it first. So i gave this guy a chance and went to have lunch with him twice, but I don't really feel anything at all coz I'm really not interested. We're all friends so most of the time, the 3 of us hang out together. Yesterday, my friend asked me to hang out, it was supposed to be the 3 of us, so i agreed but then she stood us up last minute saying she cannot go because she was "sleepy" so it ended up just the two of us, it was so awkward for me bc I was not really used to being left alone with him. I was so upset it put me in a bad mood and I felt like I was rude to him the whole time it made me feel guilty. It even made me upset when my friend texted me this morning asking me how was it, and if I enjoyed our "date", she's probably thought she did us a favor last night, she probably did for the guy, but definitely not for me

[busket]

ok actually i have two more things to say and then i'll stop (maybe)

Seeing the kids be normal high school kids was so refreshing? Like Momo and Aira talking about skincare while Okarun and Jiji talk about games. You can demonically take the balls from the teenage boy but you can't take the teenager out of the boy idk where i was going with that just roll with it

Also I adore how Momo's friends have clearly adopted Okarun at this point. He's their nerdy little babyboy now and that's that.

this fucking show has no right to be as funny as it is

The Crushing Weight of Not Knowing If There Is a Task

[as-if-and-only-if]

im starting to think this crushing weight is not about the tasks

[mj-ackerman]

I'm so confused right now, i dunno if they're all the same person, or if the other two are clones of Count Saint Germain or they're actually brothers coming after the same thing and fighting who will get it first 🤔

[clairelutra]

what we know:

in an age of smartphones, okarun uses a flip phone and doesn't own a computer

the first line that really struck a chord with him from momo is "'cause my parents are gone"

okarun speaks in an oldtimey fashion (uses "jibun" instead of "watashi", which is also polite, but oldfashioned and slightly more masculine than "watashi"), and has multiple times used phrasing similar to ken takakura, the famous actor, without seeming to realize it

okarun shares a name with momo's crush, the famous actor ken takakura

okarun shares many of the personality traits ascribed to ken takakura the actor

ken takakura the actor lived from 1931 to 2014

ken takakura the actor was 8-14 years old at the time of ww2

okarun is in his second year of high school, which means he's 16 or 17

famous ancient people and phenomena (the sumerians, the pyramids&kofun) have been linked to alien activity

okarun explicitly acknowledges that he may have been experimented on by aliens and had his memory wiped

theory 1: okarun is literally ken takakura the actor from the past—specifically from right around ww2, when alien activity was the most likely narratively speaking—temporally displaced, memory wiped, and intentionally or unintentionally prevented from seeing the results of ww2 (or finds the internet too crazy as a modern invention and avoids it for reasons unknown to him)

theory 2: okarun is an average weirdo with neglectful parents who imprinted on the actor who shares his name, probably watching all his movies on vhs or something, and is allergic to the internet from nothing more than a personality quirk

[loosescrewslefty]

Theory #1 has bleak chances, as actor Ken Takatura was not actually named Ken Takakura. His real name was Goichi Oda. Ken Takakura is a stage name, much like Marilyn Monroe's actual name was Norma Jean.

I've actually looked through all the characters names very carefully after I realized that said names have meanings related to thier lives or abilities. For example, Aira Shiratori translates to "Love, Silk, Swan" and she gained the power of rhe Acrobatic Silky, who showcased extreme maternal love and dances ballet, often associated with swans.

Ken is 健, which means Health/Strength. Which makes ME wonder if his mother possibly suffered from a chronic illness, something that makes pregnancy risky for both the mother and child during pregnancy. If she suffered complications due to giving birth that ultimately lead to her death, it would make sense that she named her son with the wish that he would escape a similar fate. And if Okarun's father drew away after his wife's death and basically left his son to raise himself, it would explain how he became convinced that there was no love or acceptance of him here on earth and he turned his attention to the stars instead.

oh i really like the aesthetics of these shots from the new intro

[mj-ackerman]

I know some people are mad at Loid for not being able to notice or figure out what Yor was trying to tell him but I think you can't fully blame him when Yor is also giving him mixed signals 😅

Tbh I'm tired of Endo using the same thing over and over again, like Yor getting drunk just so she could say what she wanted to say to Loid, making it hard for him to fully understand her. like it's fine the first time but it's getting too repetitive that it's starting to lose the spark of their dynamic. It would be nice if he tries to approach it in a different manner. I understand it's part of Yor's character but again it's getting too repetitive, and from the looks of it, it making it like the characters don't have any development at all, it's the same with Anya and Damian's relationship too.

turbo granny visiting the tunnel and praying for the souls of the girls that got molested and killed there moved me. she really did care a lot for those girls , she was comforting them when she was with them after all. turbo granny is fakest idgafuker 😭
