Vᴀɴɴᴏᴇ́ Sᴛᴀᴛɪᴏɴ @vann0e - Tumblr Blog

hi, i'm nat, i just want to contribute stuffs to the vnc fandom and make friends if possible, thanks <3

also if u wanna use the icons i make, feel free to! just like and/or reblog to give me the warm fluffy feeling of internet validation !! and pls don't steal by claiming any of my edits as ur own, i put a lot of time, effort and most importantly love in the content i create ^^;;

also i've seen a lot of anti vs pro shipper stuff and i just prefer to stay away from that whole,,, discussion (or rather battlefield? considering i've heard antis do dish out death threats and doxx people which is scary for me), i also prefer not to disclose my age however this blog will be mostly sfw unless i choose to post something on my ao3 which is nsfw for which minors will be warned.

also i don't usually reblog stuff (unless i'm in a convo w someone), for some reason it makes me panic and go ???;;;!!! and idk why but that's why you'll never see me reblog things !!

this is a safe place for all people, anyone is welcome here. however i don't enjoy arguments so if any of my opinions upset you, please just block me and move on! please do not try to demonise me or call me racist, xenophobic or anything of the sort especially in regard of the recent discourse, anyone who claims i'm racefaking or stuff like that will be blocked because i'm not, evident from my posts talking about the vampires=SWANA/MENA. thank you for your understanding.

[im still learning how tumblr works, pls be patient with me]

!! on break !!

#important !!!!

so sorry i left this blog and omg ty for all the support on my posts in my long ass hiatus on some mochijun shit 😭😭

im currently on tumblr in a different fandom so goodbye to everyone here !! i might come back someday but vnc hasn't really been active these days, i hear mochijun's drawing again..?? hopefully

for now, goodbye 🩷

It's all kinds of presumptuous and cruel of people to assume that people who haven't been vaccinate but are planning to get vaccinated are doing it out of malice. There's all kinds of reasons someone might not be able to get vaccinated when they would like (disability, legal issues, abuse, being immunocompromised, wait listing, travel/ living in remote area, ect, ect.) Not being vaccinated due to external or health barriers is NOT the same as being one of those smug assholes that go around 'protesting' to be able to go clubbing and eat out. Smh.

yes thank you! i really wish i could've gotten vaccinated sooner but i did get it done today so yeah,,, i honestly can't believe people are so aggressive towards people like me especially when they don't know the whole situation.

sorry for the discourse on your feed, everyone, hopefully it's over and done with now! <3

my final statement to my followers and @panicnecklace:

(no need to read but i'd appreciate if people read my side of the story.)

sorry for the discourse on your feed, everyone, hopefully it's over and done with now! <3

panicnecklace

this person is also @/vann0e and is unbelievably racist, defending brownface. you can see it in this post. vnc fandom please be aware

vann0e

just wanted to add me and @amuletowa aren't the same person lol

fuller link here

also methinks this anon was you now that you think i'm somehow a whole ass different person,,,

panicnecklace

for some reason i doubt that, however i could care less about who gets vaccines and who doesnt, i havent even been able to get it due to my own health conditions so im not sure why youre even bringing that up

regardless you and this person are still defending racist shit and downplaying the severity and its still reason for poc to block you since youre a threat to the shit weve fought for

vann0e

understandable, sorry for assuming, have a nice day and pls stop attacking other poc for no reason other than being pseudo woke and performative!! <33

(ps: the severity wasn't downplayed. it's genuinely not as bad as other things going on in east asia. eg muslims being ethnically cleansed in china. feel free to block me. i know i'm a terrible person for caring about the bigger issues. it's probably because i HAVE bigger problems. once we fix the deadly issues, we can move onto this performative BS <3)

Let's discuss the VNC stage play and why I, as a POC, don't find it THAT offensive

It's still icky but not as much as it could be

(important to note that I asked my dad [who IS literally brown as can be] if he found it offensive... spoiler alert: he didn't.)

If a western country made this:

I would be fuming. But I'm not fuming because they didn't. Western countries contain ethnic variety because of historical colonialism, migration and slavery/human trafficking. Japan doesn't have ethnic variety and that is okay.

is this even brownface? he doesn't look brown anyway (also a bad thing but we'll get to that later*)

vanitas' actor is japanese. vanitas is a white french boy. noé's a brown person (unsure of his origin but i hc him as north african). might not be the same level of offensive to some of you but this always happens. a lot of stage plays contain white people being played by japanese actors.

if both characters are being played by japanese people (all of them probs are), what's the big deal?

*we need to consider colorism is highly present around the world, especially in east asia. probably why noé isn't actually brown. it's something that needs to be worked on but at least vnc contains a brown character and is quite popular.

Japanese people who don't live in the west and aren't 100% familiar with western culture and racism here don't know how offensive blackface, brownface or cultural appropriation is because it's not offensive to them. Hell, they probably don't even have words for them. We certainly don't have words for it in my country which is also in Asia and coincidentally has a whole black ethnic group. As well as brown, tan, white... skin tones. Because it's a problem in the west. It's a problem when it's tied to colonialism and slavery. Not everyone knows about it. All of the people complaining about this are being slightly self-centred. Not everyone is a westerner.

It's irritating to see this happening, yes. But this online uproar and performative activism isn't what POC need. Real brown human beings are going through worse. An anime character isn't what needs protecting. Yes, media representation is important and nice for us but we prefer being able to walk down the street without constantly being on edge :)

panicnecklace

as a person of color myself i do find this extremely offensive. just because the japanese "dont know" about blackface and brownface doesnt excuse them being racist. but they do know about it, and heres why. japan constantly tries to appeal to the west (america) so i 100% believe without a doubt that most, IF NOT ALL content creators in japan know exactly what theyre doing when they whitewash their asian characters or when they add that ONE single black character "just for the rep." thats the only way their anime gets watched, they HAVE to know whats popular both in their country as well as the west because they want as much attention as they can get. its why i believe content creators in japan know about blackface and brownface. i just dont think they care. japan is an imperialistic country as well, furthering the fact that they know about racism cause theyre a SOURCE of it.

they have black people in japan, they have dark skinned people in japan. they have for plenty of years. the fact they casted a lightskinned person and put him in brownface is insanely racist and insensitive and its why i wont be supporting it. you shouldnt either. no one should. because its racist.

vann0e

this is interesting but i'll have to disagree with some points. even if they know about what blackface and brownface is, they can't take it as seriously as we here in the west can. we see it differently to them. it's unfortunately true and if you really don't want to support it, you shouldn't. i don't support it either- i have not once said blackface or brownface is okay or in any way, shape or form acceptable. i have explained why it's not that offensive to me as someone who is literally half brown in case i didn't stress it enough in my original point and i have taken into account my brown parent and brown family members' opinions. i have literally called it icky in my original post. i'm just saying it's not as black and white as you may think it is. i genuinely think that ignorance is the main root of this problem. i've never said there's no dark skinned poc in japan, heck there's dark skinned japanese people and in case you've forgotten, japanese people ARE poc. japanese media is consumed in the west but awareness of western issues isn't japan's strong point. japan and japanese people only see what the west wants them to see whether via media or news. it's unfortunate but true.

edit: i have also mentioned colorism. it's as if you read the title of my post, skimmed through and found things you disliked and immediately typed this whole thing out. i'm not excusing anything. i'm saying this isn't as big an issue as other issues poc who aren't east asian face in east asia and issues that brown people face around the world are more serious than uninformed colourist costume design. capeesh?

panicnecklace

my comment wasnt an attack on you or your post, just explaining my thought process on why i dont support racist offensive stuff made by japanese people. im literally brown skinned as well and every colored persons experiences are different, and since i live IN america i see a lot more violence against poc. and yes japanese people are poc. i literally am japanese among other things. its why i know more about them than someone like you would.

regardless, its still extremely offensive and disturbing that someone who self identifies as brown would think this is okay, but then again you likely arent in danger for existing in your own home like i am in mine.

its based on experiences and luckily for you, you got the privilege of being safe, getting a job, and holding an opinion like this online. other people of color would completely disagree with you such as i did because we experience things that make this offensive.

you wanted to try and be aggressive with me online i can return that aggression.

tldr youre wrong, ignorant, and making us other poc cringe at how much youre putting back colored rights movements. youre regressing all the work weve done

vann0e

1) i am not safe in this country (the UK) and i think the main reason is because i'm persian/iranian, i've been attacked and i'm in several legal battles because of racism. there have been multiple attempts on both my parents' lives (both my brown father and my white passing mother), 2) i have to apologise if i seemed aggressive but that genuinely wasn't my intention, 3) you are the ignorant and wrong one for not being able to accept opposing viewpoints. you can keep your viewpoint, i didn't try to change it.

how dare you make assumptions about my life? how dare you think i go through less? in case you've forgotten the uk is a terribly racist country. boris johnson is literally the prime minister. the man who called muslim women who wear hijab and burkas "mail boxes". the country that's trying to drive out immigrants. the country that doesn't supply people their medicine if they're poc even if they've paid for it. my job is transcription. i don't work for a company, my employers don't know my race. i've worked in central asia as an english language teacher and language history educator. getting a job for me wasn't easy. i've never had a uk job from a white employer despite being educated in several languages.

you know nothing about my life. stop assuming things. if anything, imagine being so privileged that THIS is what you're arguing with me about. japanese people being colourist with their casting? yeah it's icky, yeah it's colourist and borderline racist, yeah it's not right but people are dying out here in the west just for being poc and this is the bigger problem? you're calling me privileged? give me a break;;;

edit: i seriously doubt you're a poc but i'm not gonna outright say you're a liar since i don't know you (i'm not one to assume unlike,,, some people) but by speaking to another poc like this, invalidating their opinion and experiences, you're just making us look bad. i am brown. i have a right to an opinion on this. you're brown? have an opinion on this too but it isn't more valuable than mine. if i had money, i'd donate to you but as i said, because of racism, my wages are going to lawyers and solicitors to get my mother's medication from the racist and corrupt nhs system <3

final statement

You haven't gotten your vaccine yet? I've had mine for like a year because I work in a restaurant. What have you been waiting for? You've probably killed someone now because you haven't gotten it. You must be inconsiderate as fuck.

quite presumptuous of you to think i've gotten the virus. i have severe asthma, sleep apnea and post nasal drip- had i gotten the virus, i wouldn't have lasted a day so i couldn't have infected anyone. i work from home and live with my parents since they're both ill and have both been vaccinated. my father is the only person who commonly leaves the house. i'm not inconsiderate because i've wanted the vaccine for a long time but because i do transcription, work at home and do not get treatment from the nhs and have had problems with them in the past, present and am in a legal battle with them, that's why i wasn't eligible sooner and i've also had multiple personal issues that have caused me to miss my appointments. i always wear a mask and i am an excessively compulsive person when it comes to cleanliness. thank you for assuming that i'm inconsiderate though, i doubt i'd have decided to be a full time carer had i been inconsiderate and selfish! <3

(word of advice: dont take liberties when assuming people's personal lives on social media!)

#vnc

i think one of my favourite things about vannoé is that noé is the Big Precious Angelic Pure Blessed-By-The-Sun-Itself Baby™ of the relationship and vanitas the Tiny Emotionally Constipated Gremlin Mysterious-Yet-Sexy Compulsive Liar Manchild™ and yet noé is somehow older,, like i feel like the whole big baby trope is usually used when the taller person is younger and that's why they're childish but noé is literally just childish for the sake of being childish. honestly, it's probably why he's one of my favourite characters of all time.

#me purposefully avoiding talking about 54.5 but i'm just gonna say the part where noé refused to leave vanitas was... *chef's kiss*#vannoé #vanoé #vaninoé #vanitas no shuki #les memoires de vanitas #vanitas no carte #the case study of vanitas #vnc #vannoe #vanoe #vaninoe #noe archiviste #noé archiviste #vanitas #vanitas x noé #vnc noe #vnc noé
