I want someone to look at me the way Hacker looks at Swindler~
🦅🦅🦅
From the very beginning of the Akudama Drive I knew Hacker was 17 years old but I never treated him like a child because he is one of the more mature characters in this anime he is someone who consciously sacrifices his life who makes an informed decision like risking everything and getting into Kanto, defending Swindler and saving her ass many times. When Swindler asked Hacker if he was alright he just said “Just fine” would a child say that? This moment hit me a lot because he said it so unearthly calm that I couldn't hear it without tears. He is a man a real man... If they had lived a little longer and Hacker would be 18 years old would that change anything? No nothing would change. He would still be the same Hacker because adulthood is not only about age it is about human mentality no one has the right to label people just because of their age. I saw comments that said that real mature minor wouldn’t trust any adult who wants to date them and no good adult would think to date a minor more than two years younger than them. This is really sad thinking. If you love someone, the 3-year difference is not a big deal If you don't want that, then nobody forbids you but you have no right to forbid others to do so. Teenagers also have their mind and heart and there's nothing wrong with falling in love with someone 3 years older because people are not a walking numbers. He is 17 years old. It is fully legal and no one in their right mind would forbid them to date together. If someone does not consider him mature just because he is dating someone more than 2 years older after everything he did for the twins and Swindler then I think he should really think it over. I can also say that at times Swindler is the bigger child of behavior here 😂 of course, if he was under the age of 13, for example, and his mentality was different, I would not support it but here we are dealing with a really mature person! :D I would also like to say that I got carried away in emotions in my previous post I didn't want to offend any ship there. So I'm sorry 🥺
Calling someone a pedo because they ship something is real stupid. I feel like all these people getting mad about it are the ones who only see shipping as a sex thing.
As a 17 year old myself, I would say that a relationship with a 20 year old would definitely be weird… Sexually. Not romantically.
Also, remember that this is, oh, I don’t know, fictional? It’s really not that important. “If you ship these 2 you’re a pedo and you should die ❤️💕😘💕❤️” isn’t the social justice stand you think it is. You are helping no one by saying that. Child exploitation will not stop because you told a Hacker and Swindler shipper to shoot themselves.
Also also, this is probably the last thing I’ll say about this
This is Why Hacker is My Favorite Character (Besides Swindler)
Okay, call me biased, but I absolutely love Hacker even though he’s in the show for like half of it. But seriously, I think he’s experienced a little bit of growth and kindness from what little we see of him.
Not only did he have a fairly friendly relationship with Swindler, but he also gave her his drone and talked to her like an equal. He was never demeaning and if he was, he was mainly teasing, almost like he wanted to get a rise out of her. It’s really adorable and I wish that the series had kept him on throughout.
That conversation he had when he wanted to board the Shinkansen really tore at me and I desperately wished that Swindler convinced him to stay.
And my gosh, when he finally returned in episode 11! I was so happy and I’m glad that Hacker was kind enough to break Courier and Swindler out of the supercomputer/dream simulation thing. He could have chosen to allow them to get swallowed up by the system, but he actually acted on their behalf. We may not have known much about his backstory, but I have a feeling that he was just as selfish as other Akudama. And yet, he still pulled through and he even helped out Swindler rescue the kids!
True, his reasoning coincided with that of encountering the best game of his life, but I bet a part of him knew that life as the only sentient being in a supercomputer would get boring fast and was not a life worth living at all. I like to believe that he did it for Swindler, considering that he barely knew the kids at all and he only had a work relationship with Courier.
I mean, it’s kinda canon that he did do it for Swindler considering that he left her another present for her.
Speaking of which… IT JUST CAME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THE ENTIRE LAST EPISODE IS HACKER’S DOING. Seriously, someone pointed out to me that if you look at Shark and Bunny, their shirts have Hacker’s drones on them and that security measure/device thing with the timer on them must be Hacker’s as well. Without his intervention, the people of Kansai would have been stuck obeying the law of the Executioners instead of rightfully questioning and taking back the city from them (because, really, what makes an Akudama an Akudama?). Hacker pretty much also ensure that Courier got in that one final shot at the end (which was heccin glorious and beautiful and sad).
Anyway, I’m glad that we got to see Hacker (even though it was for a short while). Hopefully there’ll be more closure to his character in the manga (or at least more interactions with him and Swindler because dear lord above, he must have been more attached to her because of their closeness in age and the fact that he thinks that she hacked her way into the Seal Center).
Anyway, thank you Akudama Drive for such a wonderful character. I can’t wait to rewatch the series and see what else I missed.
Lmao 3 years ain't shit. I don't even ship them, but really? Pissing yourself over a 3 year age difference because one of them is 17 doesn't make any sense.
100% right
I hate people how say "Swindler is too old for Hacker" bitch wtf 😤 He is 17 and she is 20 it's only 3 years difference. You're shiping Swindler with Cutthroat/Courier where the age difference is 7 years and this is okay? Curier even call her shithead... Or you shiping Brawler and Hoodlum THAT'S A DIFFERENCE OF 12 YEARS! 🤬 I really don't mind these ships but you guys are making a big deal out of nothing wrong and it makes me annoys and sad because I really love ship Hacker x Swindler and because of you I feel like I am someone who likes pedophiles 😅 which is nonsense and there is nothing "weird" in this relationship ;)
simple venti icons, free to use!
Please don’t forget which Akudama Swindler had the most genuine friendship with
They’re so sweet <3 I ship them so hard!
