the king pretty princess of curses
this audio was straight up all i could hear during that fight
things that always make me happy: serial commenters. there are three types
1) reading a longfic chapter by chapter, leaving an increasingly emotional comment on every chapter, descends into keysmashes near the end: outstanding
2) read one fic by accident, clicked the author name, now working steadily through the backlog and commenting on everything, I wake up to an AO3 inbox full of enthusiasm: precious beyond words
3) the longterm serial commenter whose comment begins with I don’t even know this fandom but because they have followed me from somewhere else: stunning. humbling. magical.
these are all *chef’s kiss* and I want to add one more: 4) left a comment a while ago, comes back and leaves another comment on the same fic, telling you that they’re coming back to reread the fic: angels. blessings. lifesavers.
Are you a fan of shipping? and if so what's your top 5 kny ships?
HI HI!!! Just want to first apologize for taking so long to answer asks aslk;fj;sldfk
As for shipping… well… I definitely have some ships hehe. I will say that I intend to keep this blog mostly ship-neutral – and by that I mean, you’re free to interpret my posts as ship or platonic! For example, the Sanemi and Giyuu post can be read as either<3
And for my personal top five!!!
WARNING FOR MANGA AND INFINITY CASTLE SPOILERS!!!
make sure to follow your favourite fanfiction authors on tumblr to get such important updates as, "i'm Thinking about the fic really hard, i swear" "hashtag #notwriting" "im going to commit mass murder if i have to write" "theoretically if the next chapter came out in five months--"
"commenting is hard i never know what to say" this is an actual comment i left on a fic last night
you can literally write anything you want
this comment being from 2:35 am adds to the atmosphere i think
When people leave this sort of thing on my fics it makes me cackle evil like a wicked creature. 10000000/10 do it do it do it
Awhile ago I saw you say that you think Sumisawa makes inuyasha oc sometimes. And I was wondering if you could expand on your thoughts? In what instances did you think he made inuyasha oc? love your blog btw !!
I did say Sumisawa, but I mean Sunrise writers in general tbh. I know that Sumisawa wrote the movies but I’m not sure which episodes he was a writer on, but I’m still going to list examples from the anime, movies and Yashahime to explain what I mean!
1. Inuyasha’s desire to become full demon
One thing that really bothered me in the anime is how they really dragged the whole “Inuyasha wants to use the jewel to become a full-demon”. In the manga in chapter 94 when he learns the truth about the jewel origin’s and how it always creates a cycle of violence, he essentially decides to end the cycle:
In episode 26 they didn’t include that part, Inuyasha doesn’t understand the danger of the jewel and says once again that he wants to use it for himself, which turns into a joke because Midoriko’s barrier yeets him out of the cave for being selfish:
I noted in my rewatch that there are other instances of this, specifically in episode 36 and 44, where Inuyasha mentions wanting to become a full demon when in the manga he doesn’t say that. It’s also a huge plot point in the second movie, when he says he’s only staying a half-demon “for a while” because of Kagome:
I know a lot of inukag shippers find this line romantic, but it doesn’t make sense at that point in the series. The second movie is supposed to take place after episode 95, and Inuyasha CLEARLY gave up on becoming a full demon because he transformed and killed humans in episode 52. He says in episode 52-53 / chapter 187-188 that he doesn’t want to transform anymore:
Also the whole point of the Ryūkotsusei arc right after this (episode 53-54) was that Inuyasha was able to surpass his father by mastering Tessaiga instead of relying on his demon blood... and as far as I can remember, that was pretty much the end of the discussion about him becoming full-demon.
2. Inuyasha is more cruel
There’s a few times in the anime where Inuyasha threatens to kill people instead of beating them. For example in episode 29 vs chapter 107:
That scene is especially weird because in the next chapter Inuyasha empathizes with Sango, says he understands why she can’t hate Kohaku because he feels the same way regarding Kikyo. And he literally says he doesn’t want to kill Kohaku, only wake him up...
Or there’s that scene in chapter 129 where Totosai reveals that Inuyasha is not cold-hearted and didn’t actually want to kill Sesshomaru:
Instead in the anime they talk as if Inuyasha really intended on killing Sesshomaru, they only mention that Inuyasha was “swinging his sword around” and that Tenseiga protected Sesshomaru:
3. Inuyasha being rude to Kagome
In most filler content Inuyasha is so unnecessarily rude to Kagome. An example from the first movie vs chapter 392:
Another example is episode 96. Here Jinenji talks about how kind and accepting Kagome is... and Inuyasha says this:
She sits him after that and he’s like “You see!” but like.. The last time they saw Jinenji, Inuyasha opened up to Kagome about his past and he realized she was his home... It makes no sense for Inuyasha to even jokingly say that Kagome is cruel when she’s the first person to fully accept him as a half demon since his mother 🤨
In comparison in chapter 460, Inuyasha literally says that Kagome has a pure heart (because she always saves Kikyo despite her jealousy):
Also in episode 129 he implies that Kagome is ugly?? Even though they are clearly dating at that point...
Like, this Inuyasha?
4. Inuyasha “doesn’t know how to express his feelings”
Sunrise writers are under the impression that Inuyasha is incapable of expressing how he feels... It’s what they say in Yashahime episode 15:
Which was a super weird line. What do you mean he’s “bad at showing how he truly feels”? Inuyasha from early on in the series, sure. But Inuyasha post-canon when he’s married? Did they forget about the whole “Kagome taught me how to smile [...] how to make friends, how to shed tears for others...” ?? I would argue that Inuyasha is very open about his emotions toward the end of the series:
He’s also not as tsundere as Sunrise believe he is... In episode 90 he’s having a heart attack at the idea of him being in love with Kagome...
When as early as chapter 78 he was pretty much admitting his feelings to Kagome herself... (read from right to left)
This one is BY FAR Sunrise’s worse offense. This 15 year old boy is grieving the death of his first love, he has severe survivor’s guilt, but he’s still trying to move on and be happy with this girl who is healing his soul. Sunrise really thought it was a good idea to remove this ENTIRE scene, and replace it with this:
aaaand this is how you end up with 20 years of discourse and people calling Inuyasha a “cheater” and a “two-timer” 🙃
5. Inuyasha being 200 years old
I don’t have much to say about this, except that Sumisawa is solely responsible for the mess that is Inuyasha’s age. There is no mention of Inuyasha being older than he looks in the manga, except for this one line in chapter 3 where he says he probably wouldn’t be old after 50 years unlike Kikyo. He never mentions being alive for centuries, Rumiko doesn’t mention it either in interviews & blogposts when she’s asked about his age and his aging process. It’s just not an issue that’s ever brought up in canon or from Word of God, and yet Sumisawa thought it was a good idea to mention that Inuyasha is 200 years old in the third movie, without considering how much that affects his character... A real mess that also lead to years of discourse 🙃
Anyway, that is all I can think of for now. There’s probably more examples because I stopped my rewatch around the band of seven arc and I haven’t rewatched movie 3 and 4 recently, but I’m sure this gives you an idea of why I don’t really trust Sumisawa and Sunrise writers in general when it comes to writing Inuyasha.
Bro is never beating the dog allegations...
I love this scene, because despite his arguably tactless approach, InuYasha is trying to openly communicate with Kagome. He's literally inviting her to express her feelings in an effort to resolve tension/conflict. Is he savvy about it? Nope! But he's trying to communicate, and man, what a difference from earlier in the series.
And InuYasha's character development aside, this whole scene is interesting because it's a reversal of their usual dynamic. Typically in their relationship, Kagome is the one trying to draw out a withdrawn InuYasha—it's the complete opposite here. Kagome's withdrawing so she can emotionally recoup and get herself under control; InuYasha, sensing that withdrawal, does his bullheaded best to draw her back out and clear the air (which, let me clarify, I don't think he's wrong to do... his approach is just kinda aggro). Unfortunately for him, Kagome wasn't done recouping yet...
worlds slowest fanfic author tries really really hard
everyone in the notes we are all holding hands. everyone who hasnt worked on a wip in weeks or months or years, its okay. we are going slow but we are going
Perhaps this is a controversial take but every time someone does a character redesign and covers up Mitsuri’s chest, and all the comments are “an angel gained its wings” or etc I find myself becoming annoyed.
I’m not saying her design isn’t meant to be fan service, fan service is inescapable for every single fandom out there and naturally the hyper femme woman who is literally titled the love hashira, would naturally be the character designed for this. But I wish people would realize that it’s quite literally stated Mitsuri has… the option to change her uniform if she wishes to.
Shinobu offers her matches, Mitsuri is a grown woman who can speak for herself and say “hey, give me the standard uniform” in the exact same way Shinobu did when she got the uniform initially, the perverted Kakushi is a problem, yes. But his antics aren’t celebrated or normalized within the manga, and clearly, Mitsuri must enjoy the uniform after some consideration or else I’m sure the character, whose entire arc and purpose is self acceptance and confidence, would stand up for herself and say she feels uncomfortable in these clothes.
So, women are allowed to like their bodies, to wear more revealing things. It’s not like she’s a sixteen year old child who has her tits on display, she wears a short skirt and has her cleavage out because clearly SHE wants to. That’s not to say you cannot personally dislike her uniform, but it is not the worst thing to ever grace KNY, and to be frank the outcry over it reminds me a lot about the baby-ifcation of Giyuu and how everyone bullies him and he can’t stand up for himself, when that is in fact not true.
#I am specifically talking about the new wave of Puritanism that a woman with a curvy body or large breasts is inherently sexualized for#looking like that#when that’s not always the case and sometimes she just fucking looks like that You left this in the tags bestie!!
Expanding on this specifically, I find it so grating that women seem to either be infantilized or made into sexual objects depending on their body type.
Short woman with smaller breasts? "Child coded". But god forbid you have an actual child who happens to have big breasts and a curvy figure. Shout out to the grown ass teacher who called me and my best friend "whores" for having breasts in front of an entire class of other children at the tender age of 15. Or when I was told I was trying too hard to attract older men at the age of 12 because I wasn't used to wearing bras yet.
Yes, Mitsuri is intended to be fanservice, but she is also shown to be confident in her body without it being inherently sexual. (Ie the way she gladly greets strangers in the hot spring or when her "breasts are spilling out," notably it's Tanjirou that freaks out and not her.)
Mitsuri is actively choosing to continue to wear that outfit and I feel like people somehow manage to infantilize her (imply she has no control over her own wardrobe) while also sexualizing her (it's PERVERTED that she has HUGE BOOBS that are SEEN). As someone with large breasts, it is not fun to have yourself reduced to them. Anything that even hints at them existing is suddenly sexual, no matter what age you are.
The infantilization of Giyuu is a whole other can of worms though that has to deal with how people view and treat mental health and OH BOY.
GUESS WHO'S BACK AND WORKING ON MORE POSTS!!!
Hi guys, I know it's been awhile but I'm back and eager to get back to working on analysis posts<3 Starting with one about my favorite baby boy Genya!!! I do have some coming up featuring Sanemi and another with Tanjirou and I do plan on still answering my old asks!!
I'm glad to be back though! I just needed a break from constant posting for awhile so while my posts will be more sparse than they were before, I do plan on trying to at least get one analysis out a month.
And for those of you here from my fics--I've got some treats and goodies coming up for you guys as well, including the next chapter of Song in Every Breath and Sunlit Scales!!!
Brothers Sanemi and Genya at a festival 🎋
MY NEW NECKLACE CAME IN
It’s Sanemi’s mark!!! IM SO HAPPY WITH IT!!
Something i still dont understand is if Genya became a full demon after eating Kokushibo's blood, being the closest to Muzan would have made him gain a lot of his cells and we see that he gained a BDA, but in a scenario were he survives, would he be able to return to his human form or drinking so much of Kokushibo/Muzan's blood would have made his half demon powers to a full one?
See! That's one of the aspects I wish had been explored more about Genya! What are his limits on demon blood he can consume? How close to a demon does he become? We know he gets their healing ability plus their strength and we see that Nezuko's fire (which only burns demons) affects him! How does he react to sunlight in that state? What about wisteria? And why introduce that he can hear Muzan with enough cells if they weren't going to do anything with it?
However, I think it is important to note that Genya is acknowledged as still being human when he died; Kokushibou specifically says "That human used a blood demon art."
Not to mention that there are only three ways to kill an actual demon: sunlight, cutting the vital point with a Nichirin blade, or Muzan killing them. (I say vital point because while the vital point is usually the neck, beheading doesn't always do the trick!) Kokushibou uses a demonic blade and still manages to kill Genya by cutting him in half down the middle. So while Genya is obviously not fully human, he's also still not a full demon, even with such a high amount of Muzan's cells!
So, I do think that given enough time he would have reverted back to human (though it would definitely be interesting to see lingering traits! We know the demonic healing sticks around even when he hasn't recently consumed a demon!)
Considering that demons like Muzan and Akaza were able to get rid of their vital point weakness altogether through sheer will, I think it was entirely possible and even plausible for Genya to survive getting split in half if they had tried. Like, why not try giving him some readily available super special marechi blood from Sanemi? Or try to get another peice of Kokushibou to feed him before he faded completely away?
Granted, I do know that Genya's death was an important part of Sanemi's story but as a Genya stan there's always a part of me that wishes he had lived!!
Also, I'd like to apologize for being so quiet! I've been busy at work and also got really into Pokemon again plus I'll be starting physical therapy next week. But hey! I also started crocheting!! I'm crocheting a fox plushy to give my Sanemi bean plus a friend!
