one of my favorite part of the book
(the house in the cerulean sea)
summarizing in one meme:
im going through that phase, yknow the one, where im super into various mythologies and literally have shelves just full of myths and legends
I know nothing about castlevainia but I worship the blond he's so pretty
I just looked through my blog and idk what was wrong with me back then I apologize
Something I find funny is that there's a large gap in Arthurs life that we know nothing about. Assuming he left the DICOMY school at 18, there's 20 or so years that he could have been doing literally anything.
We know what the other adults did
Linus- worked at DICOMY pretty much forever
Zoe - was on the island being her sapphic self and generally being the Greatest
Helen - everything
Charles Werner - actually we don't know this one but based off what we do know it probably involved him being a selfish prick
So I'm taking it upon myself to compile a list of possible things Arthur could have been doing with his life, (getting increasingly unlikely as the list goes on.)
So far I have
studying philosophy Real Hard because as we know he's a Huge Nerd
babysitting or teaching because yknow he'd be good at it
studying ornithology because I'd personally find that kinda cute and funny
maybe he studied marine life bc that one scene where he said chauncey was a jellyfish and I know he probably did all that research specifically for chauncey but my special interest is the ocean so I deserve this
he could have played Jenga for profit bc in that same scene he startled me and Linus with that trick with the books
maybe he studied the blade because he's gay and has a sword
Feel free to add
To end out 2021, here are some more books that fall into the category "it's gay and it slaps." Once again a range of styles and genres, but if there's a queer main character and it's a 4-5 star book, it's gay and it slaps. 😁
Not pictured but also gay and they slap, so they deserve a mention:
- Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall
- The Incubus series by A. H. Lee (warning that these are an mmf relationship that's pretty weird/paranormal and very spicy but I enjoyed them)
- Covenant (webtoon) by explodikid
- Six of Crows (the first in the duology with Crooked Kingdom) could be on this list, but no one is really explicitly queer until book two. Still a great book though!
Go forth and enjoy, my friends! And as always, feel free to recommend me more. My giant tbr can always get bigger!
Update: I respect cookie cutter sharks but theyre on thin ice
Sharks I respect
All of them
Sharks I don't respect
None of them
Because it's pretty hard to find a straight up list of it all. Please note that whilst I believe this is accurate, I was not involved in the fandom whilst the series was active and so could reasonably miss something.
Core Content
Assassination Classroom manga as serialised in Shounen Jump. If you buy the physical volumes, there's a bit of additional content between chapters, most notably introductory character profiles.
Assassination Classroom anime (some count seasons 1 and 2 as separate entities)
Assassination Classroom Meeting Time - an animated short featuring Korosensei and Karasuma's first meeting.
Assassination Classroom Extra Curricular Lessons - adaptations of a couple of manga chapters that weren't in the show itself. I'll just link a playlist here. Fun fact this is where Nagisa gets hit by a chair (lowkey he deserved it)
Additional Content
365 Days Movie. This isn't 'canon' as it's an anime original thing. There's no official English release that I know of. Honestly the movie is mostly a series recap, and only features Karma and Nagisa in new scenes. It's only really worth watching if you especially ship them as there's only maybe 10 minutes of actual content (and most of that is just montage, you can get the gist with this)
Roll Call Book - this was published mid manga run. It's mostly just a bunch of bonus content particularly character based. No official English translation exists, but snippets are easy enough to find online.
Graduation Album - as the name implies, it accompanies the end of the manga. About half of it is an art book, but there's extra character information especially about their post graduation lives. Crucially it includes a few manga shorts which extend past the actual canon ending.
Korotan A, B, C, and D plus Korosuu. They're mostly just Assassination Classroom themed text books (Seriously. My actual university book store sold them.) Korotans are for English vocabulary, Korosuu is for maths. Notably each book also contains a light novel (sometimes these are just referred to as 'the light novels'). It is debatable how canon these are as Matsui didn't write them, but he was involved through illustrating and overseeing the writing. Korotan D is especially debated because it's post canon content set when 3E are 18, but there's a small 'it was all a dream' implication right at the end of the book. Personally speaking I take them as full canon.
Official Spin Offs
The live action movies (part one and two). They change a lot of plot so I place them more in the spin off area. Easily skippable.
Korosensei Quest Manga (otherwise known as Koro Q) - a spin off gag manga set in a fantasy/video game inspired universe. This is not canon (unfortunately) and as far as I understand Matsui isn't involved in it. There's an implication of the idea it's Fuwa's own manga creation. Overall there are four volumes but there's no official English version (though fan scans aren't hard to find).
Korosensei Quest Anime - lightly based on the Koro Q manga. This is only a short 10 episode series though, and was complete long before the original, as such only the first few episodes are actual adaptations and it starts doing its own thing. All voice cast return so that's neat.
The OVA - basically an early adaptation of the Kyoto arc. Link here. It was released in 2013 so predates the actual anime, and a lot of the voice cast are different.
White day shorts featuring Karma, Maehara, and Nagisa - posted on official website as an otome game parody for promotion. Included because they're voice acted.
The 3DS games. They're region locked as far as I understand, and there's no translation of them. You can find it dumped if you know what you're doing with emulators, I've only played a few minutes of it myself.
The app game - no longer available. It was a gatcha tie in game featuring a variety of character illustrations.
Various merch lines and related illustrations. There are far too many to list and new ones still come out sometimes.
As I said, I hope I covered everything but there's a good possibility something slipped my mind.
Actually I request more floof, if possible
Hmmmmmm I wonder should I make Bingge’s hair smoler, trim it down a little? I sometimes get carried away 🤣 his hair is too fun to floof
please give me a jmart meet-ugly where jon, a librarian, goes to a poetry book release party at a bookstore and before it starts he's kind of reading the book being released. And as he's flipping through it some hot guy starts chatting him up, asking him like, "oh, what do you think of poetry? Did you like this poetry collection?"
and jon is like "not really, the author's clearly enamored with keats and the poetry is overly abstract and it's a shame what literature and art has come to these days". and then he's like "what about you?"
and martin just points to the book and is like. "oh I wrote that."
