i hate how so many people compare the crows' trauma when the whole point is that no matter how severe of an experience you've faced, in the end, you're both drowning in the same ocean.

i think one of my favorite things about blue period is how it raises the question of "is passion really worth it at the cost of sacrificing yourself?"
it's so strange to me how people can read blue period and still only see yakumo at face value--- only as a man of good humor and great personality.
yakumo has always been so much more and he's so very similar to hashida in the sense that they both wear a thousand masks everyday, becoming the person they feel they have to be just to keep living.
the only difference really is that yakumo uses those facades because he can't face his life without them; they are his rose-tinted glasses and the only thing that prevents him from becoming fully consumed by his grief and self-pity.
of course he can be both simultaneously; he can be humourous and peppy yet still haunted by the past, and that really shows through his art and his friends. he uses huge canvases to outlet all his emotions but they still reflect every aspect of him, not just the negative or the positive, and with his friends (momo and hacchan mostly) he's able to laugh while still opening up at times.
i guess what im trying to get at is that yamaguchi wrote him so so so insanely well and i wish people would recognize him beyond being slightly attractive and cocky and fun.
robin and letty are two sides of the same coin and i will die on this hill
