dey're like his wingmen
Hagu/Ryu fans won but at what cost
Should’ve posted this yesterday but…
Not to be 10000% negative and cynical about but why do I feel like at some point in BUCCHIGIRI?!, Matakara just suddenly snapped at Arajin in a future episode. Like he just gets fed up with Arajin’s rude and distant behaviour and just straight up calls him out.
Gods, it would be so devastating not because of the angst potential, but the fact that despite being reunited with his childhood friend (well sweetheart lol), Arajin just keeps brushing him off, ignoring him, and chasing a girl who is clearly using him for selfish reasons.
And then suddenly, Arajin suddenly blurted out that it’s because of the guilt that he couldn’t protect Matakara during their childhood and that he broke their promise, complete with Arajin just breaking down.
Matakara would be shocked but disappointed that this is what kept Arajin back? Well, he understands but Matakara would walk out. He wouldn’t say anything but the look of his face is just…disappointment.
i think when talking about bucchigiri, i dont want to shy away from using the word "love" over "friendship". like friendship is undoubtedly an important type of love, but the more open and encompassing nature of the word "love" itself feels more appropriate for what's going on
Wanted to draw them more <3
the episode was interesting story-wise as always (aside from arajin having one extra cringe hetero moment not related to mahoro) but it fell kind of short. Don’t get me wrong, it looked good as always, just between shots and the way the story plays out feels more… choppy? I can’t explain it. If there’s something happening behind the scenes I hope gets remedied because I don’t want the production/story to go downhill because it has so much potential
On the positives: we get to see mahoro being an evil girlboss this episode, siguma squad and more delinquent gang lore seeing how differently each gang operates. the welcoming party you can tell they’re all having fun even tho they’re beating each other up
theories/questions for future episodes: does that mean if arajin is going to become marito’s successor will he fight matakara??? or will matakara fight marito or mahoro? it’d be interesting to see mahoro fight someone because she’s clearly capable of force and manipulation in other ways (slaps arajin, screams like a siren to get matakara to go away) Now that he knows the reason why arajin joined siguma I wonder how willing matakara is to fight for him/get him back.
I also wonder how the NG boys will play into the next/future ep. next episode is probably about the war between the gangs because that’s where the episode left off.
it/they- real nyanbinary madness- hey! i'm mew. i ramble a lot about my interests. welcome to headcanon hell- doodle dump galore- multifandom
