something something extremely sexy when magic users resort to physical violence. yeah i have the power of god and anime on my side but i also have THESE HANDS. i cast Punch You In The Face. i take my magic staff through which i channel the vast energies of the elements and the cosmos and i cast Severe Concussion And Skull Fracture. casting time for xenoglossy too long, chose the quicker route of Stab You In The Throat.

Akai Family Secret Archives: Aoyama Gosho Interview Translation

This interview was published in the Akai Family Secret Archives back in 2021. He answers questions about the Akai Family with a focus on Movie 24: The Scarlet Bullet, which was airing that year.

Aoyama Gosho Special Interview

We conducted an interview with the creator of Detective Conan, Aoyama Gosho! From behind-the-scenes production talk about The Scarlet Bullet to the secrets behind the creation of the Akai Family, get ready for the "backstage" reveal of this dangerous family!

PROFILE: Born June 21st in Tottori. Debuted in 1986 with Wait for Me, which was selected for the 19th Shogakukan Newcomer Comics Award. Won a Shogakukan Manga Award in 1993 with YAIBA and in 2001 with Detective Conan. His series Magic Kaito is currently serializing as well.

Q. How did you decide to have the Akai Family appear together in The Scarlet Bullet?

A. Since The Darkest Nightware was about Akai and Amuro, and then Zero the Enforcer was about Amuro, I thought, "Let's do a story about Akai too, and if we're doing that, let's have his family show up as well." I didn't want him to lose to Amuro- I wanted them to be equally matched.

Q. Please tell us some highlights of The Scarlet Bullet.

A. Akai's sniping scene. It was the screenwriter Sakurai's idea. It really fit well into the movie.

His one-liner after the scene was certainly memorable as well.

Originally, that was supposed to be the line in the teaser- "Let it reach far beyond the horizon." But I thought it was a little long, so I had them change it in the actual movie. That teaser line was actually my idea as well (haha).

I didn't realize that catchphrase was your idea as well!

Sera and Okiya's fight scene was my idea as well. If he were just fighting against Sera, Okiya would be stronger, but they're evenly matched with Mary in the mix. Also, I was the one to request they add the post-credits scene- I drew the keyframe for it as well. It's a real highlight, so please watch until the end. Don't leave during the end credits! (haha)

Q. It's been over two decades since Akai Shuuichi made his first appearance in the manga. How has the way you draw him changed over the years?

A. The lines under his eyes might've gotten more uniform. They were all over the place at first, but the design is a lot more solid now, so it may be that anyone can draw him (haha). Aside from that, nothing has really changed. Ikeda Shuuichi-san's voice reverberates within me, just as always (haha).

Q. It took a long seven years for Akai to revive after his death at Raiha Pass. How did you decide when to bring him back to life?

A. At first, I planned to reveal he was alive around two years after his death. But my readers seemed to genuinely believe he was dead, so while I was trying to calculate when to do the reveal, I ended up forgetting about it (haha). But I started getting more and more comments like "Isn't Okiya Akai?", so I figured, "I need to resurrect him soon." It took quite a bit of time for Holmes to resurrect after his apparent death at Reichenbach Pass as well, so I think the timing worked out in the end.

Q. How did fans react to his resurrection?

A. They were over the moon. I was happy to see everyone so excited. It was worth forgetting about the reveal for a little while (haha).

Q. How did you create the character of Okiya Subaru, Akai's other face?

A. My thought process was: "Shift bit by bit away from Akai. But leave a bit of Akai-ness within him." That's how he eventually settled into that character. Though in the end, he does sometimes just feel like Akai narrowing his eyes (haha).

When he's disguised as Okiya, he's even kind to children, isn't he?

Akai is kind too! (haha) But well, when he was younger he'd say things like, "Tch! These brats are in the way..." (haha) Though he wouldn't say anything like that anymore. Perhaps he's gotten kinder to children as well after spending time with the Detective Boys as Okiya.

Q. You've stated in the past that you consider Shinichi to be Conan, so you feel as though Shinichi has been showing up all this time. Do you feel the same with Akai and Okiya?

A. Of course! Occasionally, an illustration of Akai looms behind Okiya, right? But even when I don't explicitly draw it that way, he's always there just like that (haha). That's why when I write a story with Okiya, I feel like I've just drawn a story with Akai.

Q. Now, about his little sister Sera Masumi. She's super friendly to Conan, but when it comes to Shinichi, she's much colder...

A. A cold shoulder, right? (haha) That's intentional. She loves the little Shinichi-kun she met when she was a child. When he's big, she feels like, "Who the heck are you?" (haha) She keeps them separate in her mind. To Sera, that encounter a decade ago was her first love.

Q. How did you decide to create their mother Mary?

A. I was thinking I wanted to make another shrunken character, so I figured I might as well shrink Sera's mother and introduce them together. And since I was introducing them, I figured I might as well flesh out their character profiles as well. As you can see here, I have a lot of notes on them.

Woah! Don't tell me there's details there that still haven't been revealed...?

Yes. For example, Tsutomu... whoops, I almost let something slip (haha).

Q. Regarding the second son Haneda Shuukichi, in The Super Secret of the Road to School, which released quite a while before his first appearance, Yumi mentions her ex-boyfriend. Had you already thought of Shuukichi by then?

A. I had already decided that Yumi's ex-boyfriend was usually childish but actually pretty amazing. But him being a shogi player and a member of the Akai Family was something I decided later. I was thinking I wanted to have a shogi player character as a connection to Haneda Kouji, so I stuck that character backstory onto Shuukichi. But Yumi is in trouble. She's going to marry into that Akai Family (haha). Well, it's Yumi, I guess she'll be fine.

Q. Will Shuukichi and Yumi see any further development...?

A. Aren't they getting married? Though I don't know if I'll draw their ceremony (haha).

Q. Do you have any new information on the Akai Family...?

A. Tsutomu is cool! ...Though that's a given (haha). I can't wait for him to get a voice actor in the anime. Haneda Kouji is also cool! Though I don't know when I'll be able to show him... (haha)

Q. I can't wait for their secrets to be revealed. Please leave a message for all Akai Family fans!

A. They call them the world's most dangerous family, but they get along pretty well, so (haha). Please enjoy their mysterious parts as well. I'll be counting on your support of them, including Tsutomu!

okay but can we talk about apep. SPOILERS. you're one of all-powerful dragon sovereigns and then your planet gets invaded and colonized by catholics, who steal your powers, kill most of your people and terraform your planet and infest it with their monkeys. one of the monkey rulers living on your stolen domain of dendro becomes powerful and thinks it means you can be buddies. He adds you to his groupchat with his furry friends. You tell him to fuck off, but they keep calling you with zoom meetings.

Then you finally agree to a deal with him, bc he says he hates the catholics too, so you trust him for once, but turns out he knowingly poisoned you with his radioactive waste. You are in horrible pain, driven to madness for hundreds of years and almost die.

Then the toddler that the colonizer catholics gave your stolen power to shows up, saves you and asks you to be friends. But you've been in these fucking trenches before, you know the monkeys will add you to a friend list and then betray you. tldr don't judge apep for being rude, she's been thru shit

[gold-rhine]

i actually really dragon culture in genshin (we pretend natlan never happened) where they are super honorable, they never lie, never break a promise, etc, but its not bc they are like bound by rules like fae, where flins will give you a promise and immediately start searching for loopholes to cheat, no, dragons don't cheat or betray, bc they are too proud and think think doing all that shit is cringe. like neuvi says "lying is beneath me" and had a wheezing fit when he heard that archons wear fake visions bc that's literally cringe. scylla was talking shit to egeria's face and came to tell remus he's leaving directly. like even after having their planet stolen from them, dragons are still too proud to use dishonorable methods even against celestia and humans

this is how it feels liking n25 len after colopale uses him nonstop now

Currently losing it entirely over the way that Dottore tried to position himself as the only one really thinking about the Traveler's internal experience of their journey and just how much they long for their sibling, only to have Wanderer be the one to explicitly show consideration and understanding of the Traveler's feelings and inner conflict.

It's such a succinct way of underlining how Wanderer's journey has brought him to a place of being able to make genuine emotional connections with other people in a way that Dottore has never been able to achieve. Head in handssss

[aphel1on]

Like.,

that very ability to form real emotional connections with people where Dottore COULDN'T is, in fact, a large part of what initially led Dottore to target him as the Kabukimono.

And Scaramouche's ability to connect to anyone on any genuine level WAS successfully destroyed. For hundreds of years.

But even that was only temporary. Couldn't keep him down. And that VERY ABILITY to trust others is what allowed Wanderer to play a part in defeating him !!!!!

Forever insane about this by the way. Rum who was so sure he had all the pieces, Rum who panics because what do you mean James Black was in the other car, Rum lowkey shitting his pants because if James Black isn't the head honcho then he doesn't have the full picture so who could it possibly be that he's up against?

And then. Glorious shot of the Cone

✨Reblogs are appreciated✨

I wrote a fanfic for this it is set in Nod Krai though.

The Mask - Ghostly_Tragic_Angel - 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game) [Archive of Our Own]

Lumine wakes up after a night out at the flagship wearing The Doctor's mask with her earring having gone mysteriously missing. She makes her mind up to find Dottore and have him return her earring and to give him his mask back.

I very rarely draw anything from Genshin Impact, but I felt like doing this about them lol

i'm begging you guys to start pirating shit from streaming platforms. there are so many websites where you can stream that shit for free, here's a quick HOW TO:

1) Search for: watch TITLE OF WORK free online

2) Scroll to the bottom of results. Click any of the "Complaint" links

3) You will be taken to a long list of links that were removed for copyright infringement. Use the 'find' function to search for the name of the show/movie you were originally searching for. You will get something like this (specifics removed because if you love an illegal streaming site you don't post its url on social media)

4) each of these links is to a website where you can stream shit for free. go to the individual websites and search for your show/movie. you might have to copy-paste a few before you find exactly what you're looking, but the whole process only takes a minute. the speed/quality is usually the same as on netflix/whatever, and they even have subtitles! (make sure to use an adblocker though, these sites are funded by annoying popups)

In conclusion, if you do this often enough you will start recognizing the most dependable websites, and you can just bookmark those instead. (note: this is completely separate from torrenting, which is also a beautiful thing but requires different software and a vpn)

you can also download the media in question (look for a "download" button built into the video window, or use a browser extension such as Video DownloadHelper.)

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

if the "Complaint" links are not visible for you:

Option 1: try the DuckDuckGo search engine instead (bonus: dedicated to privacy! doesn't track your data!)

Option 2: go directly to LumenDatabase.org (the website that collects the complaints--and therefore the removed links) and search for the title you want. look for results titled "DMCA (Copyright) Complaint to Google" featuring the media you're looking for. Proceed to Step 3 (above).

[awkwardinnocent]

personally, i'm a huge fan of r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH. they keep their links up to date and they also rank them, basically. they also have all kinds of little pages explaining how to safely pirate shit.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

^^^^what they said. I'm surprised people are still reblogging this post now that google's flushed itself down the toilet. so here is your

2026 UPDATE:

just go to r/FreeMediaHeckYeah and r/Piracy. it's easier, more reliable, and will take care of all your piracy needs!

You know, I like how fandom portray Kogoro in fanfics.

Most of the time when the fic is centered around him, he's fairly competent and/or a very good parent (we even have two tags for that on AO3) and his bad traits are usually toned down, I just love those.

Here are some recs from my bookmarks in case anyone is interested:

Late Night Chat Kogoro & Conan have a talk.

Cloudburst Sequel to Late Night Chat, Conan couldn't take it anymore and the person who helps him feel better is Kogoro.

Quite rooms and Loud thoughts 5 moments of Kogoro showing his love for Ran and Conan, and a moment where Ran and Conan showed their love for Kogoro.

Code Red Kogoro investigates Conan.

The Ally You Never Had A slip of the tongue alerts Conan that Kogoro might not be as ignorant as he thought.

Nothing Okay, this one isn't centered about him, but I liked how he treated Shinichi here, especially with what's going on in the fic.

Secret Kudo Kogoro is convinced that he cracked the Edogawa Conan case, it's funny how his deduction is so close yet so far from the truth.

I'm half sure there are more out there, but looks like I didn't bookmark them :)

MUKURO vs JOCKS

KHR is forever my favourite little ‘lore makes no sense’ series. Usually that’s a bad thing, I enjoy my lore detailed and understandable but here? Everything is so batshit insane you just kind of give up like. What the hell sure, these kids are mafia and used to killing and the main character pointedly doesn’t want to join the mafie but no one considers his opinion. What the hell, sure, there are flames that for some reason only mafias use and no one else ever not the government no one ever. What the hell, sure, there’s a bunch of canon parallel world and a dude who can travel between them and collected himself a squad from different world. Sure. Whatever. Of course there’s a shadow family with opposite attributes for some reason, gravitation as opposed to sky. Which are totally separate from all other flames that others have. Sure. Of course there’s a big dark evil prison and of course there’s a noodle shop owner in a funky hat who has known everything about lore all along, of course there’s previois babies, of course the main character is the one to solve it all. Of course he looks like a copy of his ancestor of ten generations ago. Of course power up includes a bunch of new jewellery and a cute pet winx style. No one has remembered we are mafia and supposed to be criminals for a while. Of course there’s a random bazooka that can exchange you with yourself ten years from the future

What the hell, sure
