I resent just how fucking accurate this shitpost is, congratulations OP, you effectively illustrated how Darwin’s Theory of Natural Selection became accepted by the wider public using a FUCKING MUPPETS MEME, here is your A+, get the hell out of my office
After thinking and thinking about how to truly celebrate the greatest #rinharumemories for the 10th anniversary, I have come upon a solution! I just finished updating the Rin Matsuoka Translation Masterlist so I'm going to share with you my fave RinHaru content that's often underappreciated by all but the most hardcore fans.
This will not be content from any of the anime series/movies. I'm also skipping bigtime things like the Duet Drama, S2 Drama CDs, S3 Drama CDs and the Mook because PEOPLE BETTER KNOW ABOUT THOSE. It will be entirely extra material, but it is 100% recommended to all RinHaru fans to get those memories flowing!
In order of release:
Style 5 Interview from S1 Final DVD: Do you love RinHaru teasing each other and Rin being tsun? This is the content for you!
Haruka vs Rin, The Crab Festival's Peak Playoff from S1 Drama CD2: Crab battoru! Need I say more? Also Rin and Haru do their strip thing. Nonstop hilarity at its finest!
A Promise of Rainbows from Illustration Works 1: Have you heard oldtime RHers going on about RinHaru and rainbows? This is the reason. Haru reflects on young Rin making rainbows for him while playing in the pool. It gets cuter from there...
S1 Endcards Skit: Notorious for the image of Rin bridal carrying Haru but so much more nonsense can be found. Some of the best of RinHaru bickering. XD
The Missing Endcard Skit: No part of this madness isn't amazing. A truth or dare strip game Free style.
RinHaru Interview from S2 DVDs: Do you love Haru being the ABSOLUTE KING OF SNARK? This is where the fan-favorite "Looks like you’ve got it rough—Oniichan." comes from and also has so much of crybaby shark.
Ano Natsu no Long Slow Distance: If you haven't read/listened to this, you've done yourself a deep disservice. This is some of the best blend of snarky and soft RinHaru, including Rin borrowing Haru's shirt again and Rin asking Haru for ten of his best smiles. XD
RinHaru Text Chat from S3 DVDs: I have long said that the BEST part of Dive to the Future is the extras and this text chat is the perfect example. From the suggestive line of Haru telling Rin he forgot him to a forgotten water bottle to just being awesome rivals, a must read.
Rin After Talk from S3 Rin Spotlight: The highlight of this is Rin's description of attempting to meet up at the marketplace and chaos ensues. But also includes Rin talking about exchanging recipes with Haru and getting an Aussie souvenir for Haru. :3
Special Memory Episode 4 from S3 Rin Spotlight: Short and sweet but can you resist Rin teasing Haru about having delicate skin? XD
Special Memory Episode 2 from S3 Haru Spotlight: Another short and sweet and has my guilty pleasure of Rin teasing Haru about blushing. >>
Haruka's Birthday Story 2020: The follow-up to Rin and Haru exchanging recipes, where Rin finally decides to give into Haru's special tastes.
I just made a subreddit for Obizenyuki as a poly ship. It didn't have one before and I believe it deserves one. Please come join us if you love ObiZenYuki! We'd love to have you!
i really wonder what sorata is doing w obiyuki bc lowkey why does it seem like she likes them so much more than zenyuki? like, zenyuki is so cute n their story is adorable but like,,, theyve been separated for so long (and ik thats kinda the point? like theyve go on their own journeys to find their place in the world and then come together) but then im curious why we get so much obiyuki? (LIKE COME ON FAKE DATING? EVERYONE WHO INTERACTS W THEM LEGIT THINKS THEYRE IN LOVE?!?!? SHIRAYUKI CALLING OBI HOME? FOUND FAMILY? AUGH) anyway my brainrot is making me lose my mind but either way im happy whichever couple comes together yaknow?

“Ember Island Players”, but the version where the show decided it was actually important to address that kissing people without consent is not okay, even if you think that person is your “forever girl”. Especially if you think that person is your “forever girl” but she kind of just rejected you. Remember kids, unless you get an enthusiastic yes in consent, then the answer is no.
Aka in this house we stan Katara, and are still upset 12 years later about how the forced kiss was never mentioned again when homegirl is a major character and was clearly very upset by it.
Also, if you think it would be fun to learn how to create gif manipulations and decide to teach yourself…. choose a less ambitious first project than creating an entire “missing” scene from a cartoon. I am very tired.

EDIT: I had someone ask why Aang kissing Katara in this scene was a bad thing if they end up together, you can read my explanation here.
