my hyperfixations r warriors in a coliseum fighting to prevail over one another
can you all stop and listen to me rant about Eve for a bit because what the hell is he even doing and what did we ever do to deserve him??
if you're confused I'm talking about the japanese singer Eve. but he's not just that, is the thing. he's not simply the japanese singer Eve, he's a singer and a musician and a producer and a song-writer and an author and a mangaka and also just a guy that streams video games. he makes japanese alt rock, but he also has a super cheesy song about valentines day. he makes cute little vocaloid covers but also makes songs about parental trauma and love and betrayal. he's got dozens of amazing songs but for most people he's the guy that made jujutsu kaisen's opening theme.
but above all else, what i love so much about him is that he's an author before he's a musician. he drops a new universe with EVERY SONG. like, real plotlines with a whole cast of characters and he hires animators to turn their story into a music video for every one of his singles. he has like a hundred different characters at this point and all of them have their own fucking lore. he made a LANGUAGE just to put little messages on his MVs. he put messages in fucking MORSE CODE in his songs. not the MVs, the song itself, he put like patterns into the instrumental. WHAT THE FUCK??? he's not just making music, he's actively trying to say something EVERY FUCKING CHANCE HE GETS. he's the author of a reward nominated novel in japan. and it's kind of just a fact to know about him. he writes a manga as a hobby on the side. what was the first thing he did with the fame and money? MAKING A MOVIE. it's on netflix and it's called Adam by Eve which is a title you could interpret as a million different things and you could be correct but he will NOT confirm. he has a beautiful mess of a mind and he still has so much to show the world and i have an ungodly need to sit down and talk with him for DAYS.
i've been watching this guy for years, okay. from his first albums to where he is now, i've watched him grow into his music style, also grow famous and get the recognition he's always deserved. his voice has matured and he can actually afford paying for good animation now but in my eyes he's still the guy that was posting covers on his youtube channel and getting just a few hundred views. he's an anime and manga fan, he's a gamer and he's genuinely so funny like even though my japanese is only intermediate if you squint i used to laugh so much at his streams. and now he's so huge that he goes on asia tours and has millions of monthly listeners but he's still so authentic and original with his music and everything else that he creates. the only thing he did with all the fame he gained was to grow even more into his unique style and get even more creative while still making the kind of music HE likes making. i'm just so glad he exists because i know he still has so many stories to share with the world and i'm so excited to see all of them.
Y'all who tf is in charge of the Dr Stone Stan and Xeno wiki images pages? You're doing a great job, sweetie. I see you, and I appreciate the hell outta you bby
Not in any particular order, btw
There's also some for other characters, but these are the most
good morning kara no kioku likers
You hate that your favorite bands are exercising their free speech.
My cursed friend’s takeaway after we watched Senku’s and Xeno’s flashbacks in s4 ep7
kabru is so fucking funny. he’s out here playing 15 dimensional manipulation mind chess with a guy whose hobby is barking like a dog
Not Xeno's pompadour getting bigger in his desent into madness and turning emo 💀 some people really need to learn how to take rejection
Also, trying to indoctrinate Senku with his ideals is crazy. My gods get a therapist Xeno please I'm begging 🙏 😭
Then causally saying he'd become a dictator in front of his colleagues is WILD
This WOULD happen😭😭🙏🙏
While I'm very opiniated about shipping, I think it's important to take a step back and realize that dungeon meshi isn't a romance story. I think some relationships are purposely kept vague because dungeon meshi is a celebration of love in all its forms. Platonic love, familial love, romantic love and anything in between. Laios, marcille, falin, chilchuck, kabru, toshiro, senshi, izutsumi, and many more, no matter how you choose to interpret it, there's undeniable love that connect them all. And those who love each other eat together. Food and love are what brings people together and that's why the Manga end with all of the characters sharing a meal. Dungeon meshi is a story about a small group of people who, through building connections, rallied a whole village into saving one woman they care about.
