Main Acc: @eltheabberation

Hi guys!! Seidou week!! June 16 - 22! Yayyy!

The hashtag is #seidouweek2025 so tag your submissions :D

Prompts will be posted on June 9 so you can start working on them early, so if you have any prompt suggestions get them in before then! If you have any questions please let me know!

Additional Info:

What can be submitted?

Literally anything. You could submit a fanfiction, fanart, an original composition, a powerpoint presentation, a crochet project, your unfinished manuscript for tokyo ghoul 2 musical edition, whatever your heart desires. The only thing that would be hypothetically banned would be anything discriminatory in nature but I doubt that would be an issue

Can I skip days?

Yup, feel free to complete as few or as many days as you'd like

Do I have to follow prompts?

Prompts will be provided, they will be fairly lose and up to interpretation but honestly submit whatever you want as long as it's fairly seidou-centric, I mean that's kind of the whole point of the event but I can't stop you. Also there will likely be a bonus free day at the end of the week to submit anything that doesn't fit under the prompts

Can I submit things late?

As long as I am still on this hellsite you can submit prompts. If the year is 2035 and you stumble upon this and decide you want to join a decade late you can

Are ships allowed?

Yup!

tldr is you can do whatever you want whenever you want it

Thank you so much to everyone who has decided to join! I will add any future questions to this list as well

I've been wanting to draw this shit 😭 🙏

Ofc Naki is the one who tried to write "Aogiri" on the board, but his dumbass wrote "Onigiri" instead 😭

Someone with braincells have to correct it even though it looks messy.

'bout to post this for Seidou Week but I'm late af

Seidou Week Day 6 - Trauma

this drabble is styled in the format of an article in the scientific journal Nature

Trauma-induced kakuja-genesis: vectors of RC cell growth in artificial ghouls. 

Akihiro Kanou*, Kimi Nishino*, whatsisname Ogura*

*Aogiri Research Labs, Department of Ghoulification Sciences, Tokyo, Japan

Abstract

Successful ghoulification and kakuja-genesis was achieved for S. Takizawa. The kakuhou donor was one K. Yoshimura (“Owl,” deceased). This success arose from a trauma-informed approach: It was observed that those ghouls who underwent more injury and trauma became stronger. After kakuhou transplant, S. Takizawa underwent a comprehensive array of both physical and psychological trauma including but not limited to: Starvation, vivisection, amputation, force feeding, poisoning, restraint, degradation, various forms of humiliation, constant threat, sleep deprivation, traditional torture tactics, and being made to believe he ate his own family. This research shows promise in creating an effective, reproducible ghoulification method as well as having implications in kakuja science.

Introduction

The successful ghoulification of Ken Kaneki has been a great question of the scientific community over the past couple years. Not only did the initial operation take – a rarity on its own – but he managed to best some of the strongest local natural-born ghouls, as well as achieve a kakuja state. This is especially of interest, as it was previously theorized that artificial ghouls would be unable to form kakujas. Attempted repeated experiments using the same kakuhou source failed to produce similar success1. Factors such as diet2, exercise2, proximity to natural ghouls3, and donor kakuhou traits1 were also investigated, yet also appeared to be dead ends. It became clear that the traditional physical and social factors did not play a role in ghoulification effectiveness. By returning to the basic principles of the red child (RC) cell and resulting ghoulness, a new set of parameters was conceived: Trauma.

What is the most eye-catching, desirable trait common to all ghouls? Their regenerative abilities. A ghoul can regrow limbs, organs, even brain tissue. Previous research has shown the impenetrability of their skin is due to constant surface level regeneration5. A ghoul has, on average, 200% the muscle mass of the equivalent human6, and this, too, can be thought of in terms of regeneration. Muscle is built only after it is broken down. Normally, this is achieved through daily use and/or exercise; a ghoul, however, can also build muscle mass from injury. This is a unique trait of RC cells. Like stem cells, RC cells can differentiate into any other type of specialised cell in the body. They also do so at an incredibly fast rate. In normal humans, high RC cell count results in a multitude of cancerous growths (RC syndrome)6. Ghouls, somehow, avoid this outcome – out of 175 ghoul cadavers studied, only 9 had growths, and of those only 2 had cancerous growths6. RC cells, regeneration, injury, and strength all go hand in hand. This suggested that perhaps repeated trauma only functioned to make a ghoul more successful – growths were avoided by occupying RC cells with legitimate injury and the added muscle mass and expanded biological RC cell network provided evolutionary favour to the more aggressive ghouls.

This theory was further supported by anecdotes from K. Kaneki’s life. Dedicated efforts were made to follow his progress from initial operation to inevitable capture by the CCG. He was subjected to a brutal beating mere weeks after receiving a kakuhou. It was during this event he first released kagune. He was later involved in fights with the Gourmet and his restaurant, top CCG investigators, the 13th ward’s notorious sadist Jason, and finally the Reaper himself. It is the encounter with Jason that provided the most insight. During this time, K. Kaneki underwent physical and psychological torture. His fingers and toes were removed repeatedly, the torture taking advantage of his regenerative abilities. He was chained, beaten, gutted, taunted, humiliated, and, most importantly, physically and mentally traumatized. K. Kaneki later went on to take down Jason and several other of Tokyo’s most infamous ghouls.

Aogiri Research Labs received many hearty test subjects after the battle of Anteiku. More than three quarters of these were given to the Department of Ghoulification Studies. By following this avenue of trauma-induced regeneration, we, the researchers, succeeded in ghoulifying S. Takizawa, who is well on his way to a kakuja state.

Seidou Week 2025 Day 2 - Family

this is inspired by CanadianLucifer's piece

Zombie

They stared as he dragged himself down the street.

A living zombie, back from the dead.

He was draped in a tattered black cloak. Limp strands of gray hair peaked from beneath his hood – a scarecrow after the crows have turned.

His hands hung limply at his sides. The nails were crusted black with dried blood and scar tissue. He carried nothing in his arms.

Along the sides of the road they whispered:

Is that…?

Isn’t he…?

They said he was dead…

They said he was insane…

Takizawa Seidou…

That name didn’t belong to him anymore. The doctor had taken it from him when he scooped out the rest of his guts and fed them back to him.

A zombie who feasted on his own brains. He had felt his sanity slide down the back of his throat. Sweet. Slimy. Filling his empty stomach. Animating his foreign limbs.

The street he grew up on had never been very busy. Calm, suburban, cookie-cutter houses. Mailboxes and neatly trimmed grass. Kids on bicycles. The elderly with walkers. He had used to walk this very same path. After a day of school. A day of work. Back when he thought he’d be the hero.

And not the villain.

The house would be empty. Another thing the doctor took from him. Another thing shoved down his throat.

How had he gotten here?

A low, guttural sound pushed past his lips. He didn’t think he could form words anymore. What was there left to say?

Doors opened. Neighbours crept onto their stoops. Grief. Horror. Anger. Pity.

He continued down the street.

There was no horde like in the movies. No raving mass of undead flesh. No cries of “Brains! Brains!” Just him. Just one. A forgotten zombie crawling back to the grave like a dog under a porch to die, to lie there and die and decay and return to the earth and stink up the house and lower the property values until someone finally called an exterminator who would look under the porch and find–

“You’re alive!”

He had carried nothing down the street except the putrid corpse of who he used to be but now there was a woman in his arms. She was sobbing. She was short and frail and she was saying that name

Seidou!

and sobbing.

But it couldn’t be–

That would mean–

He wrapped his arms around her back. She smelled like home cooking. Like bedtime stories. Like an empty grave.

“You’re alive.” the zombie breathed.

Hey guys! So Seidou week’s uh technically over! Thank you so so much to everyone who participated! Of course, late submissions are always allowed, I’d just ask that you’d tag this blog in them since I won’t be checking the tag as often (that’s a lie)

Again, thank you all so much, this was a ton of fun, and I hope we can do something like this again!

Cookie crumbles and quiet forgiveness

Day 4 of the Seidouweek! Prompt topic is: Meal. (Could actually be day 2 prompts too)

This is just a bonus drabble, I actually planned for day 4 something else but it's not finished yet. So take this as a soft comfort and my apology for the next fanfic that will hopefully ruin your heart.

<3

˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆. Drabble about Takizawa Seidou!

No matter how old Seidou and Saina got. Whether in school uniforms or office clothes, whether ten or twenty-two. They always found their way back to the living room, sitting on the couch and watching the funny kid show.

It didn’t matter if they'd had another petty argument that morning, about laundry, fashion choices, who finished the juice, or some dumb thing on News. Somehow, as soon as the afternoon sun dipped low and Sesame Street flickered onto the screen, they’d be side by side again.

Not talking.

Not apologizing.

Just sitting.

Soft giggles would slip out the moment the Cookie Monster came on screen, crumbs flying, that ridiculous voice chasing away whatever stubborn silence had settled between them. Saina would bump her shoulder into Seidou’s, and he’d roll his eyes but grin anyway. No “sorry” ever passed their lips, but none was ever needed. The ritual of this was their apology after all.

In the kitchen, their mother would peek out from behind the curtain with flour still on her hands. She’d shake her head fondly, already pulling out the sugar and butter from the cabinet.

Before long, the scent of warm cookies filled the apartment, vanilla and chocolate chip wrapping around them like a blanket. She’d come out with a plate in hand and a light scold in her voice.

“You two,” she’d sigh, setting the cookies down. “If you keep bickering like this, how will you survive the world? At the end of the day, all you have is each other.”

Saina would pout. Seidou would mumble something like, “She started it.” But they’d both reach for the cookies at the same time, fingers brushing, and then they’d laugh again. Not taking one another's stupid comments seriously.

Soft, unspoken forgiveness in every crumb shared.

And outside the window, the street remained quiet, golden in the light of childhood never quite left behind.

A memory of the golden hour, safe in their minds and will always replay like an old broken radio.

Have fun!!

(Kms I put all my energy into this. I usually don't share my drawings since I'm never satisfied with it and still learning but for Seidou I DO EVERYTHING.)

[seidouweek]

Glad to see we all saw the family prompt and decided that taki doesn't deserve nice things
