Day 3 - A duo you appreciate - The squishies <3

It’s the darlings, the found family ever. They are dear to me, Tatiana and her very lame adopted father. Theyre very sweet. Im enamoured with them.

^Vague post canon interaction, because I’m a fan of Tatianas prickly personality in loop 101 and her loser uncle/surrogate father who she stays with when she’s in America.

#UUAppreciationWeek2025 Day 2:

An antagonist I appreciate is Luna! If it weren’t for her, we wouldn’t have a story! I love her mystery and aura and I’m glad Tozuka chose such a simple yet effective design for her!

Day 2 - An antagonist you appreciate, Billy <3

My beautiful boy, my sad wet dog of a man. I look at him with big heart eyes and question his silly silly choices.

google translate defaulting to chinese at first

(english-side-only really, i get that the kanji and hanzi are completely different)

I love reading about these kind of translation decisions.

I've only ever seen 弊 used to refer to one's company: 弊社, as the article says.

I've been told 弊 is used to refer to one's own something, and it has a very humble nuance.

So 弊機 translates to something like "I, your humble machine" or "I, who am but a mere machine".

Japanese is great that it can say so much with simple pronouns.

[blessphemy]

Romance language translator: well we don’t have a gender neutral pronoun so I guess we’ll flip a coin for male or female

Japanese language translator, an intellectual: none of Japanese’s 30-something plus personal pronoun options have the perfect vibes so I’ll create a new one to bring that special somethin’

[imitationgame77]

What I found to be particularly clever about the coining of this very unique first person pronoun 弊機 (heiki) is that it’s a homophone of 兵器(heiki), meaning ‘weapon’

PROPAGANDA

Princess/Long Quiet

I was writing somewhat cohesive propaganda and then the phrase “She is everything. He’s just Quiet” popped into my head and i think that sums them up better than anything else I could have said. The Princess can change to be anything she’s perceived as, and the Long Quiet… he’s silly :)

Fuuko/Andy (propaganda by @tokiro07)

Fuuko became the boss of a time-looping organization designed to fight and kill God, looped back to the 1800s and used visions she acquired from previous loops to become an oil baron. By the 1970s, she'd amassed enough wealth to outstrip most governments, re-founded said organization with incredibly advanced technology, and used all of her resources to avert the horrific tragedies of all of her loved ones. Along the way, she became skilled in several fields, such as language arts, surgery, cooking, kung fu, metallurgy, sharpshooting, singing, dancing, boxing, and drawing. In addition to being an oil-baron and effectively the CEO of a secret organization, she also became a ramen-themed cryptid, an astronaut, and a deadbeat dad

While Fuuko was gathering capital and recruits, Andy sat on the sun for an unspecified number of years, but likely the full 4.6 billion years since the creation of the Earth, to keep God's ten strongest soldiers sealed away within it and prevent them from interfering with Fuuko's preparations. For all intents and purposes, Andy acted as a stay-at-home wife while he waited for Fuuko to finish her work

They are canonically in a relationship, and they weaponize it. Fuuko's power, Unluck, is directly proportional to how much she likes whoever she touches x how long she touches them x how much surface area she touches, and Andy's power, Undead, allows him to tank whatever horrible thing Unluck sends his way while redirecting it at an enemy. A single, one-second high-five between the two was enough to summon a comet, specifically to cancel out a meteor she'd accidentally summoned on a close personal friend. She was able to think of the plan needed to facilitate this while fighting one of the aforementioned ten soldiers within 10 seconds while also performing major heart surgery, and then immediately infiltrated the sun alone to confront the other nine

Andy was originally a nameless amnesiac until Fuuko came up with the name as a pun on Undead. Since Andy got his first name from Fuuko, many fans have taken this to the logical conclusion that he would also take his last name from her, and thus refer to him as Andy Izumo
