Day 1: my favourite thing about the movie
I said it before (I think?) and I will say it again, but this movie's costume design forever has me in awe. I will not by any means try to go in depth because so many people have done it so well, but seriously I am obsessed. My fav is probably the first Saito fit by the way, not arguing a guy who incorporates his culture into luxurious men formal wear that well whatever you say beautiful.

The poetic cinema of Kotetsu’s powers timing going down and that actually saving his life.
I’m thinking about this again. How cour 2 is the narrative but a sequel, going into familiar beats and going ‘haha you know what happens, you watched season one you can probably predict how this is gonna go’ and then.
And then actually no, the thing that made Kotetsu ‘not enough’ as a hero, the thing everybody thought is going to be his downfall, him not having the hundered power for five minutes, is actually what saves his life?? (AND BUNNY’S???)
It’s really something something about failure not defining you but also sometimes, sometimes it’s good that your power doesn’t last as much as it used to. That thing you thought might be your downfall actually saving your and your partners life at the last minute.

I decided this would be fun. So reblog with a new word and see how long we can make it.
The starting word is...
Lady
His name kanji are 利(advantageous) and 運(luck/destiny), i.e. “Advantageous Luck”
His parents blessed him!! He is the luckiest-named guy on the planet!!
Birthplace: Mutsu Province(which tbh is pretty vague- 29 hans were there in Mutsu no Kuni)
Likes: Sake and Squid
Dislikes: Shellfish
Quote: “It must have been the star I was born under…(misfortune)”
Noda’s Note: A perpetually weary, unmotivated and yet really sexy ossan(middle-aged man). I love this sort of a character.
Relations:-
Inudou: “The Inside Man”; Playing the role of a “tanuki”, he scouted around for intel.
Hijikata: “Deeply Respects”; Due to his father’s influence Kadokura decided on being a follower.
Birthplace: Roundabouts Kushiro, Hokkaido
Likes: Kokanee Salmon
Dislikes: Snakes and Locusts
Quote: “You’re going to fail if you don’t even think things through, Kadokura!”
Noda’s Note: Kirawus got his name Kirawus[キラウシ] because “as a child he was playing around with Deer antlers. Isn’t that adorable?” Kirawus is an Ainu word that describes things that have horns. The cute baby devil deer Kirawus-nispa.
On that note, the ainu word Kirau is a sort of basic Ainu siriki(traditional pattern) which is form of a thorn/spike/horn.
Relations:-
Nihei: “Hunting Companion”; While out hunting, Kirawus heard the story behind Nihei’s gun.
Kadokua: “Employer’s servant”; 雇い主の部下だが態度は適当だ
Kirawus is taller than Kadokura but Kadokura is heavier in weight.
You had one job Noda I asked you Kirawus’ age
Also,
Kirawus is the youngest child(in his family).
When asked about Kadokura’s past as regarding just how he went to school as a boy in his times and if he were from some well-to-do samurai family or reknowned or rich family. Noda stated Kadokura’s father was also unlucky and fell into ruin(poverty) and Noda thinks Kadokura was burdened with his “unluck”.
When asked why of all people Kirawus hasn’t even taken off his matanpushi, Noda said he might draw Kirawus naked if the right opportunity presents itself and he doesn’t draw people naked just like that *ahem* really Noda?
Kirawus canon likes a sort of fish. Kadokura the Tanuki we have seen him ask for fish as a bribe. Now it turns out Kadokura likes Fishing!
Q: What did Head Jailer Kadokura do on his holidays?
A: He likes fishing
Kirawus is unmarried and a confirmed bachelor
Kadokura used to be married once but his wife divorced him and she and their daughter ran off from him. Which once again brings me back to my fear reagarding who he is based on
Also,
Relationship: “An incongruous pair” or in my words, “They complete each other”
Nagakura paired up these two useless bums hoping they could be somewhat useful if together. And so they’ve been paired together ever since.
Take this as you will:-
凸凹コンビ(Dekoboko combi) literally means “odd couple” and often that they are an equal-opposite duo, i.e. what one lacks the other compensates for. The phrase is used for siblings and best friends as much as it is for couples/lovers. The most cited example is Rain Man.
or as my dirty mind sees it *ahem* the two kanji’’s mean concave and convex and like…ummm…catch my drift
Finally played this game (watched as my neighbour did all the work while i chose between bonus doors)
This two are my favs, their vibes are good
I think this two might get along pretty well
classifying cherik scenes into "i cant believe this scene exists" and "how did they get away with this" and "the only way anything that is being done in this scene makes sense is if you assume theyre in love"
“One of the most interesting things about Elizabeth Turner was her Kiss of Death. Throughout the trilogy, all of the men she locked lips with has died - including Sao Feng in At World’s End, and (if you want to be petty about it) her father, Weatherby Swann. Usually they would die moments after kissing her for the first time. This excludes Will Turner who has kissed her several times before and beat the odds every time. However, even he succumbed to her kiss and died as well minutes after the two were hastily married by Barbossa. This is most likely a just coincidence and not something that was intentional, but years later it’s still fun to point out to friends and watch a dawn of realization hit their face when they realize that Pirate Queen Elizabeth may have also been the Grim Reaper.”
