can i perhaps ask for your thoughts/hcs on Gachiakuta PLEASE, i’ve been starving for content since before the anime dropped 😭
i’m hoping the anime brings in more into the community I love this series so much 🙏
oooooooOOOOOOOH ANON YOU ARE IN LUUUUUUCK I GOTCHU I GOTCHU-
GACHIAKUTA HEADCANONS
- Out of all the cleaners, of course I'm biased to say that Rudo is the most ticklish and usually gets tickled the most!
He's not too familiar with tickling as a whole, the most experience he ever got from it was his Dad, Regto, who always loves to mess around with his son when he has the chance.
- I'd also say that Rudo is a Ler-leaning Switch!
He's not used to giving tickles as much as he receives them from the people in his life, but oh dear God if he comes after you run while you can, that little shit is peak menace material!
- Out of all the cleaners, Enjin is the one who indulges in tickling the most! He's a certified Ler, baby!
He's team Akuta's resident tickle monster! Mostly because he's picking up some of the most traumatized kids and goes "I will not stand for this trauma bitin' y'all in the asses COME HERE-"
But also because he's a menace to society
- Enjin's favorite targets tend to be Rudo and Zanka, but that's mainly because they won't threaten to make his head roll like Riyo would.
Not to say he doesn't like tickling Riyo either, he's chillin' with anything, it's just that Riyo is very picky when it comes to this activity, and he knows enough to respect that.
- Zanka is a 50/50 switch, but he also isn't one to start tickle fights because he's the type to say that they're childish and that he's "too old for these games".
Yet where does that complaint go when Enjin decides to mess with him, hm? He gets so strangely quiet...
- I also think Zanka is the one with the least amount of tickling experience, purely because his family does NOT seem like the most physically affectionate bunch, and you know...look at that sibling dynamic...ain't no way-
- Out of everyone in the cleaners though? Corvus is the true tickle monster.
But you'd usually never know, and that's the funniest part.
He's a sneaky little shit with it. He'll be chillin' having a little discussion with one of his subordinates, and the person nearest to him is getting fucking TASED out of nowhere, make em drop to the fucking ground on a choked laugh.
Lots of confusion and embarrassment from unsuspecting parties, and Corvus will act all concerned like "oh no, are you alright? You took quite the tumble." All while knowing damn well he's the reason for it. He can and will do it again when the victim lowers their guard again though, and he's so discreet about it that nobody really notices his shenanigans. The only one who's actually in on it is Semiu, and she couldn't give a rat's ass what happens as long as nobody gets hurt.
- He loves to instigate tickle fights when he's not even quite there. He'll use his sneakiness and pit two cleaners against each other while having conversation with a group, and then exit the room and just listen to that chaos spread! Accusations, revenge, let it spread to the whole group until we've got a war in that room going on...he likes to observe the chaos he ensues from a distance, sue him.
- Oh yeah, the only ones who can actually take down Enjin are definitely Corvus and Gris! They are unafraid to commit ticklish CRIMES on that man because of how much he (lovingly) torments his team. When he needs to be taken down a peg, all ya gotta do is bribe one of them and Enjin's fate is pretty much sealed.
- Oh! Follo, my boy! He's one of the few outside of team Akuta who really likes to tickle Rudo, especially after they got over that (currently) manga-only incident between them!
He's the one who's on the most even playing field with Rudo, and who teaches Rudo how to tickle others, as embarrassed as he is about it. They tend to have the fairest tickle fights because they're around the same level of sensitive and such!
Anyways, onto their spots! I'll be doing the main four for now!
Rudo: Very much a walking tickle spot! Regto especially loved to tickle his sides and tummy when he was younger, or when he wanted to embarrass him any at all.
He does have a spot right behind his ears that makes him melt into a giggly puddle, kinda like how a dog enjoys their ears getting pet (Amo seems to be the only one who has access to it, though)!
Gentle, yet rapid tickles seem to get to him the most, especially when they're unpredictable. A scribble to the sides then an attack on his back, or immediately switch it up to feather along his hips has him hiccuping and squeaking like nobody's business!
And yes, I do think he's the type to squeak and hide his smile, mostly because he probably doesn't like his own smile but dear God is it PRECIOUS to see him smile and laugh!
Zanka: He's definitely the type to have a very ticklish back and hips! Like, his back and hips are his WORST spots, best believe! Just tracing a finger down his spine or squeezing his hips gets him yelping like he got electrocuted!
He has a pretty ticklish neck too! Skittering your fingers around there gets a super jerky reaction out of him, but you better watch out, cause he is not afraid to get violent when he's tickled!
He fights back with lots of flailing limbs that don't really go anywhere though, so they're pretty easy to pin! Unless he tries to punch or kick you, then ya damn well better watch yourself around him...
Rough and crazy tickles drive him up the wall the most! Give him no chance to breathe, let him have it! Combine that with lots of teasing "I'm gonna getcha!" Or "tickle tickle tickle tickle-" will get him screaming! Dead, deceased, he's passed on to the next life, rest in pieces 😔
He definitely has a lot of snorts and hiccups in his laughter, which is embarrassing for him but adorable to everyone else! He shakes his head a lot and tends to cry easily when he's tickled, mostly in the beginning when he was super unused to it, but that was probably because he was a little overwhelmed by all the physical affection he received and how happy it made him feel...
It just kinda stuck after that. It definitely makes for a good cheer up method or a way to help him get all his emotions out, though!
Riyo: Not as devastatingly ticklish as the others, and she doesn't tend to like being on the receiving end much, but on the rare occasions she allows it, go for her tummy and sides! She's got pretty cute chuckles that you can squeeze out if you're careful enough.
Though I don't have much on Riyo right now, I do know that when she does allow being tickled, you better not do it in public! She's not super comfortable with that, so always make sure to let it be a private endeavor you can bond over!
Enjin: Ribs and thighs. Nobody expects it, but ribs and thighs are the way to go. He will guard those spots with his life, but once you get either spot he will yield SO FAST-
He loves to tickle and tease and mess with others, but best believe he can't take what he dishes out! Absolutely despises being teased (not really, he just gets super embarrassed and that is NOT good for his reputation) and his laughter gets loud when he's tickled in either spot! Like, unreasonably loud, God damn....
He also, unexpectedly, has pretty ticklish cheeks! He HATES it, but Gris totally takes advantage whenever he can to flutter his fingers along Enjin's cheek and get him to flinch away if he's being too much of a gremlin. Enjin will pout at him though, get all sulky and shit, it's a sight to behold I swear.
He also has a bit of a sweet spot on his wrists! Definitely not loud laughter or anything hysterical, but quiet little giggles he'll try to muffle if you trace circles along his wrists. He can't ever seem to truly hate that spot...
Anyways that's all I have for now but THANK YOU SO MUCH ANON, YOU ARE SO RIGHT WE NEED GACHI TICKLES IMMEDIATELY IM JUST PROCRASTINATING CAUSE THOSE DESIGNS ARE SOME KINDA OTHERWORLDLY GENIUS I SWEAR-
You are so right, we need more people in on it, hoping the anime comes through for us 🙏🙏🙏
