Oh, and by the way, that Supreme Court ruling is where that Harry Potter money goes.

Sakuma telling Kidou he has better freedom as a part of Raimon and that he knows just by looking at Kidou can be a throwback of Sakuma's lines in Shin Teikoku arc. Sakuma said that "he can't see Kidou's world," but in the ending, it became "I've opened my eyes". Sakuma is the one to reassure Kidou in episode 56, as at that point Sakuma is able to look at Kidou with a clear vision.....

in middle of writing my analysis post, it's gonna be pretty long because i want to tackle as many topics in my to-do as i could in a single post than making short post for each. but honestly the reason why am i not finishing it sooner is because i'm not feeling well lmaooo

currently i'm thinking that sakuma is kind of an unreliable narrator in terms of his insecurity towards kidou. episode 38 and everyday frame it as him feeling like he's not as good as kidou is because sakuma himself mistook it as such. he thought that what he's insecure of is his own ability when it's actually of his place as kidou's friend

but it becomes double unreliable narrator in shin teikoku arc as yes, sakuma's (and genda + fudou but this is not about them) judgement is clouded by meteorite brainwashing but because the emotion he displays is very raw it reveals his Real feelings at the same time. "i can't see your world" = i can't understand you As A Person

even then "sakuma is jealous of kidou's abilities" isn't inherently wrong because he is.. because sakuma's insecurity is deep rooted that he feels bad about every single thing at once, and in ares' timeline where shin teikoku arc doesn't happen you can watch sakuma being left in his issues for a year

I love that in this sketch by one of the inazuma eleven character designers Genda and Doumen kind of admire Sakuma, like they know he’s the bad bitch of the team

Lotus: Symbolizes purity, strength, resilience, and rebirth. It's commonly used as Buddhism symbolism, and some depictions of Acala (Fudo Myoo), which is the Buddhist deity Fudou is named after, depict him with the flower

Anemone: Also called windflower. The purple anemone was used as protection against evil, fitting Kazemaru's position as defender and his arc in the second season

Rose: The official flower of Father’s Day, with red roses representing alive fathers and white roses to honor deceased fathers, representing how fatherhood is a central theme in Kidou's writing. Red roses mean true love and passion. White roses mean innocence, purity, and virtue. The combination of red and white roses together symbolize unity

Tiger lily: Symbolizes confidence, pride, prosperity, and good fortune

People either love or hate adult fei and like, i get both points? In my opinion they nailed the shape (it’s camp) but i also guess that they messed up his palette because fei is supposed to have strong yellow and orange palette in both skin and outfits so he looks off as an adult. because grayish outfit and pink skin are Not what he’s supposed to be. Most of Fei’s outfits are orange or if he’s not it’s the vibrant GO raimon blue

Hey sorry if I bother you but could you tell me where you get the inazuma eleven videos i.e. in japanese with english subtitles please?

this drive

I think adult fei looks camp and he’s giving afgan hound so i like his design

something something pink haired strikers and their stoic boyfriends

its horse time babey

the thing is like I genuinely can't think of any other sites that are any fun for posting art on where 1) people will see it (both in terms of enough people on the site & in terms of searchability (like with tags)) and 2) they'll say things about it (like they do in the tags here!!)

i like you. have an upscaled inazuma eleven kujimate

when people call me their friend

a butch is seriously life-changing butches i hope you know that. especially as a little kid.. seeing a butch out in the wild will change you forever. its like in old movies where they'd switch from black and white to color to signify transformation

heyyyyyy there do u maybe wanna share more thoughts on butch lesbian kirino? im very intrigued 👀

This is based on projection of my own experience of identifying as MLM trans guy to nonbinary butch lesbian so I headcanon Kirino to go thru the same pipeline, hahah. Though different to my labels, I headcanon that Kirino is both transmasc and butch lesbian.

The idea came from how Kirino keeps his pigtails despite not liking being mistaken as a girl, so I headcanon that he has a complex relationship with masculinity, hence his complicated gender journey where he mistook his masculinity as being a binary man, but in reality it's entirely outside of the conventional idea of gender (being butch)

Other than his refusal to let go of his pigtails, my main idea of the headcanon is the way he finds kinship in Joan of Arc who during her entire life was demonized for not conforming to gender roles, leading to her death. And Kirino's Joan of Arc theming doesn't end in his mixi-max but it extends to his keshin sharing the same traits as Joan's (banner bearing / raising morals of other fellow members)

I also found Kirino's development to embrace his calling as a defender and to support Shindou and other members similar to butches in history where they took the role of supporting and protecting other members of the LGBTQ community in past, too

What kind of hat fits sakuma?

i actually once drew him in a baseball cap before during my webfishing hyperfixation phase (full post) so it's the first thing that came up in my mind.

there's also this art used in natsu bomber of penguin trio and megane as cowboys and i think sakuma is rocking his cowboy hat so much. i always get excited whenever i see fanart of him.

sorry for answering late i had been saving this ask so i can draw my thoughts but i never have the time to ^______T i also think he'd look very cute in newsboy cap too ahahah. thank you for asking!!

i feel like lot of things people easily miss or fail to do when analyzing ina11 characters is nuance or "these conflicting traits can coexist in the same character" and from observation it often happens due to projecting or biased view..

at which shindou is the main victim of this treatment because everyone remembers his weaker moments when he isn't thinking straight but rarely his kind actions and thoughts (which there are so many)... leading to the amount of mean shindou jokes which immensely pisses me off. if i were to sum it up, shindou is mostly strict when it comes to serious events where things are at stake because it's his role to keep things under control, otherwise he's very gentle to people. strict shindou and nice shindou are two traits of his that coexist, and so is shindou who is taken by his emotions because he feels strongly especially for people he cares for

there's also how kazemaru's breakdown is the part people remember about him but rarely his s1 focus and episode 94... understandably these scenes are the ones that leave impression in people but ina11 (OG and GO specifically) is a series that did a good job giving depth to the characters in off match scenes and more sublte interactions and i wish people take time in thinking about them too

i'm guessing i'm one who takes more time in the off match scenes because i came from slice of life genre and my favorite episode is episode 56 that flies under people's radar when it's very important in the kidou arc. people (and areori writers) forgot that kidou is supposed to stay at raimon for temporary time and S1 ended at him being Interested towards raimon at most instead of being Attached. he just stayed with them in early S2 because the schools are being destroyed and he only decided to stay after sakuma's encouragement

Another inameme xD

They mean the world to me *s0bs*

My Ina11 powerscaling opinion is that I actually prefer if Genda was in Ares timeline's Inazuma Japan instead of Saginuma.

Like I admit Genda is my goat; but also narratively Neo Japan in original timeline happened because Saginuma was very very frustrated he wasn't even chosen as tentative rep, after Epsilon matches motivated him to get stronger; which didn't happen in Ares so I think Genda being chosen instead of him makes better sense plot-wise... though I'd feel a wee bad on Sakuma if it were the case

sometimes a trans headcanon is 5 pages of careful textual analysis and reasoning and sometimes it's "i know this doesn't make sense but it's my favourite character and i get to decide the gender" and sometimes you have both within the same media and that's beautiful.
