Nijimura is a character that is so near and dear to my heart. So I, as usual, will be angst posting to show my love
I was rewatching the nijiaka hallway scene(as I always do) and the scene just before it caught my attention. The scene where nijimura talks to sanada about his father's condition and how he was planning to step down as captain.
Now honestly, I didnt think I could hate Sanada even more than I already do but of course he proves me wrong.
What really pisses me off about this scene is how uncaring Sanada is. He doesnt offer nijimura, his student, any comfort or support even when he finds out about what nijimura is going through. He shows absolutely no sympathy, not even when niji APOLOGIZES for stepping down as captain(which he shouldnt feel like he has to do).
Whats worse is that, Sanada narrows his eyes as he apologizes which is what truly makes me angry. Its the reason why I will never understand people who say that they "cant blame him because the principal forced him" or that "he felt guilty." This scene proves that he never actually cared about the teiko kids beyond how useful they were to the club.
(It really cements the fact that these kids were doomed from the get go because the adults in their lives never saw them as anything more than tools to promote the school.)
What niji truly deserved to hear in that moment was that this must have been an extremely hard decision and that he shouldnt have had to choose between being a son or a captain. He should have been told that he'd be supported because he is more than his position on the team. But I guess thats just too much to ask huh.
In conclusion Sanada should die and nijimura deserves better.
..did you think that was the end of that? haha no.
Something I think people in the fandom tend to do is view niji through the lens of an adult and therefore hes often judged a little more harshly(not that most people care enough about him for that). Now I understand the 'nijidad' jokes, I love them but guys. nijimura(in teiko atleast) is 15 YEARS OLD. HES FIFTEEN. HES YOUNGER THAN A LOT OF US HERE. He's a child. A child that was forced to grow up much like sei. While it's alright to feel resentful because he pushed the captains position onto sei but you have to understand that he had no other choice. The position would have broken him too and he needed to be there for his father, for his family.
Now I have no clue how to segue from that so the next thing I want to talk about is his seishun tip off. Ive seen people comment that it seems too focused on the extremely unhealthy teiko ideals. However that is honestly understandable.
This is mostly just my speculation but nijimura's home life is probably far more unstable than we think. Since his father is sick and hospitalised it wouldn't be wrong to assume that his mother has to work overtime to support the family and pay for the treatment + basic expenses + the eventual move to America. So there's a high chance she doesn't have that much time to spare for her children at this time. We know that niji's dad has been hospitalised for around a year now(or "since last spring" as niji puts it) so for atleast a year it has probably been nijimura's responsibility to take care of his siblings and given that he was also captain and the time the burden of being a good son and good captain probably weighed heavily on him.
So, with his very unstable home life and the pressure on him it's not surprising that he'd try to cling to the one thing he knows will not waver, that is the teiko ideal of victory. And that is not his fault whatsoever.
So the gist of this entire thing is that nijimura, despite his maturity and strength, is a 15 year old boy that was doing his best to be the person his family needed him to be and as a result had to give up the sport he loved so much.
not seeing a lot of people on here talking about ICE murdering another man yesterday. His name was Lorenzo Salgado Arajou. He was a Mexican man living in Huston Texas. He was killed at age 52 and lived the past 35 years here in the USA, and was in the process of obtaining a work permit. He was shot and killed during a traffic stop that ICE claims was part of a targeted operation, and claimed he was āweaponizing his vehicleā- the same claim ICE agents made when they shot and murdered Renee Good.
During the stop, Lorenzo had 3 coworkers with him in his truck who have all been taken into ICE custody.
His family described Lorenzo as a hardworking family man who didnāt deserve to be killed. All he wanted was to provide for his wife and see his sons become great people. His eldest son recognized his father by his cries and pleas when trying to identify who the victim was.
The Salgado Araujo family has set up a gofundme to help with funeral and legal costs, and to help keep their family supported since Lorenzo was the sole provider.

in the end i have to give it to the promised neverland for firmly building its narrative around systemic oppression and refusing to step away from it to make something more palatable or shonen classic. i remain enamored by the concept of a fantasy horror series told through the lens of farm cruelty that touched on the terror of capitalism, misogyny, and traditional family values. i feel like i glimpsed one of the most impactful stories of my life before it seemingly extinguished over night and faded into obscurity
If you had to navigate the internet in Arabic, could you?
I already do
Yes, easily
I could probably find my way around
It would not be easy, but maybe a little bit
I would have great difficulty
No, I would be entirely lost

If you had to navigate the internet in a language you didn't understand and couldn't even read, how would you go about it?
My friend Wesal (@deemagaza) doesn't speak English. The only way she can find her way around the English internet is by using Google Translate or ask others like me for help. It is very difficult for her.
Yet she has no choice but to do so for her daughter Farah, almost sixteen now, who is autistic and has a kidney problem that - without treatment - makes her deficient in potassium, which, if it becomes too severe, can lead to cardiac arrest.
^ Farah spends most of her days like this now, feeling uncomfortable in her body, but not understanding why.
Farah's medication has become unavailable in Gaza, which has endangered her life and means she has to be treated in the hospital, which is costly and where they are running out of resources as well. Farah's case has now been referred to the WHO to be transferred abroad. If the opportunity for evacuation arises, we must make sure the funds are available!
Please help by donating to Farah's fundraiser and by sharing this post! Farah's fundraiser has been verified by gazavetters, #451!
If anyone has wants to donate but has questions about how the funds are transferred to Farah's family, feel free to get in touch!
If you donate to Farah's campaign, you can get a free commission by @fablebagel! Thank you, Fable! ā¤ļø

Every mother in this world dreams of a future for her child, but I dream of providing even one pill for the next day of her life. Please take action and help us.šš
My family's wound is still bleeding, and my little daughter's illness is greater than words can describe. Please don't hold back your donations, your prayers, or sharing our appeal.Take a step for Farah, for the sake of everything you love. I am a mother who, instead of dreaming about my daughter's future, now dreams only of providing the medicine and every dose she needs to keep her alive.š„¹šš»šµšø
Please help her stay by my side for a longer life. šš»š

It's July 11th again, 31 years since the Srebrenica genocide. People are still looking for the remains of their loved ones. Still deciding whether to bury what they have or to keep looking. I'm not sure how much has changed since 1995. Some people are still stubborn as ever and refuse to even call it a genocide. Others are proud it happened.
There's those who say, "it's been 30 years by now, move on. Everyone committed atrocities, war is hell" but how do you move on when hate still drives our societies? How do you simply act like it's all good now when serbs who call out this genocide are called traitors? Our region is far from fixed.
But it's true that we are no longer facing genocide. Right now as we remember Srebrenica and the other atrocities committed across Bosnia(that i would argue are genocide all the same regardless of UN verdict) we need to remember people currently going through hell. The people of Sudan, the people of Palestine, the people of the Congo, the people of Tigray. "Never again" is a useless phrase. We can see that it continues to happen again and again. It's not enough to just wait for the situation to be better and then act sad when the anniversary comes around. Nobody's expecting you to fix everything by yourself but we need to act in ways we can. Please remember this is urgent.
This is maybe one of the dumbest things Iāve ever written. Is there some connection between Akashi pursuing victory above else (pronounced in japanese as shÅri) and the only person who ever loved him dying right before he was hit with Teiko, his mother, being named Shiori? Is his mother the only true victory heās ever had? Did losing her accelerate his fear of losing (control?) again?
Come to think of it, it really is insane that my entire country is burning alive and literally no one in the rest of the world cares. Thousands of Indians are dying every day from the heat, it's 45+ degrees in multiple areas, the government couldn't give two fucks, we're getting severe warnings and red alerts, and not a soul outside of South Asia is speaking about it because why would you ever care about brown people
USA folks, that is a consistent temperature range hitting 113°. Death Valley temperatures. In Banda, it hovered between 116°-118° (47°-48° C) for a week straight.
This has been happening all month with little to no international media attention. Here are a few organizations you can check out for resources or to support:
A Plea from the Heart: I Am Fatima, and This Is My Story
My name is Fatima, a teacher from Gaza. I used to work in a small school I loved dearly, planting hope in the hearts of children and teaching them that tomorrow could be better. But the war took everything away. My school was bombed, I lost my job, and our home was reduced to rubble. Yet, I refused to give up. I set up a small tent amid the destruction and continued teaching children, showing them that knowledge is a light that cannot be extinguished, even in the darkest times.
My husband, Akram, was my partner and pillar of support. But he was severely injured in an attack targeting civilians. His abdominal injuries are so severe that he can no longer work or even lift basic items. Every day, I see the pain in his eyes and feel the weight of helplessness, but I try to stay strong for him and for our children.
Our eldest, Manar, is four years old, and sheās missing out on her childhood amidst this devastation. Our youngest, Ibrahim, was born under bombardment just a year ago. He has suffered greatly due to the lack of milk and proper medical care. Yet, sometimes, he smiles, and in those brief moments, I find the strength to keep going.
We now live in a fragile tent that doesnāt shield us from the cold or rain. Every day is a new battle for survival. I write these words while holding my childrenās hands, with nothing left but my faith in God and the hope that your kind hearts will hear our plea.
Please help us provide milk and food for our children, ease Akramās pain, and rebuild even a small part of the life the war has destroyed. Every donation, no matter how small, makes a big difference in our lives.
I ask you to share our story and be our support during this harsh and unforgiving time.
