:(
You guys wouldn’t be too mad at me if I wrote some more arcane to satisfy the rot, would you? Be honest.
Bsd pretty much summarized
everybody acts like dazai joining the ada with no resume or recorded history is the outlier among ada employees but their main hiring requirement is basically a glorified vibe check. the founding detective was kicked out of the police academy. their second employee was a war criminal. they hire orphanage rejects with bounties who have no formal education. a random farm kid became a detective. a child assassin. whatever the hell tanizaki has going on. honestly i'm pretty sure kunikida is the only ada employee who knows what a resume even is.
A bit late xmas (kinda) picture... One of my Roman Empires - the Great Christmas Truce of 1914. Of course I couldn't help but imagine the azicrowley in this setting
Their first (and only, as they are sure for many years) meeting, the memory of which they will cherish for ages.
(Please please forgive me historians and all history fans. I diligently studied all the material, and then neglected it for the sake of artistic expression 😭)
needed to draw more chimera yuri
break in the case
genuinely irritating how this fandom erases yuuji’s weird/ “offputting” traits. like sure, he’s upbeat, cute and social.
but he isn’t as innocent as everyone here paints him to be.
he’s into pretty gory stuff, isnt scared or disgusted by curses even from the initial start, unlike other commoners. gojo describes him as “a bit crazy” and he’s definitely right.
he went gambling despite being underage, uses vulgar speech, he does pretty unsanitary things and literally cannibalizes including fingers of an ancient corpse?
when his friends talk about toge’s struggle as a cursed speech user because he could easily kill someone by accident, he calls it “cool”. he can be very violent and unforgiving if he’s angered etc. etc.
he’s good natured and goofy and naive sometimes, but he’s far from being pure or innocent.
Hi, i did this cuz i thought it would be fun
and i enjoyed all of it.....but also....never again,,,,
Okay. Denji’s Pov in “All circuits are busy” and why it’s written like that. Let’s talk about it:
I’ve gotten a (small but significant) amount of comments/ asks, telling me how refreshing it is to have Denji’s pov be very fast paced and wordy because it is a show of perceptiveness, if not intelligence.
And while it makes me incredibly happy that people appreciate it, it also makes me sad that not more characterisations of Denji are like that.
Because listen. Characterisation is a free real estate in fandoms you can do whatever you please, always. But when you have a character who is canonically illiterate and you decide to make them dumber than a door….it’s telling. And it’s not telling nice things.
I’m not saying Denji is an underrated genius, but he doesn’t have to be. Most of the characters in chainsaw man are of simply average intelligence, and that’s the point. At their core, they are your average run of the mill human that’s struggling to find the place in the world. Not every character has to either be a genius or downright worm-brained. There’s a middle ground. Step on it I beg of you
Yes, Denji is gullible and a bad liar and can’t read/write. He is also the fastest learner in the manga, incredibly perceptive, has the most emotional intelligence out of all the cast, and could fucking do advanced math to calculate his debt at age 10.
One of the main points of Chainsaw Man is “don’t underestimate the illiterate teenager.” Did we not read the same story? Characters fall into this trap time and time and time again, and Denji makes them eat dirt for it. So why, pray tell, do people keep underestimating the illiterate teenager???
Also I like my povs to reek of a bit of autism.
Thank you if you read through this garbage fire of frustration.
