Hello please reblog this if you’re okay with people sending you random asks to get to know you better
It wasn’t easy for Hanamichi to accept he was in rehab, after all he was the loose bolt of Shoukoku. He was the fiery red hair who caused trouble on first day; now he was stuck with a spinal injury and hopeless dreams of ever being more successful than ever.
but as Hanamichi played with his bland hospital food, he couldn’t resist but to think how far he has gotten. Hell, he didn’t even know shit about basketball in the first place until he met Haruko. Now he stands here, but did he do it all because of her?
No, he did it because he’s a basketball player.
He did it because there’s no other sport that will ever replace the adrenaline he feels when the crowd roars over because of a point. The sweat-drenched uniforms at the end of games and practices. And all of those tedious basics that he did before he could even attend a game. Would he do it again? Yes.
Hanamichi suddenly felt unhungry and bothered with his thoughts. He decided to go out and see the coast from his rehabilitation home.
The sea’s salinity reached his nose, and the slight sprinkles in the air slightly pecked his face. He still fell horrible, but remembered his train of thoughts. He did well, and he would come back on the court again. He would prove to all that even when he fell low, he is going to stand up again to prove them all.
Hanamichi didn’t even notice how long he’s been outside until a staff member came out to tell him it’s time. With a smirk to his face, he knew he’s going to prove them all wrong.
And to all of them who guided him, he will say thank you.
just became moots of amazing people and a cool account liked my post life is so amazing
holy SMOKES my small rushed fic got a bit of love yay!
it is so hard being in a fandom space full of adults cause then i feel like i don’t fit in. I love talking about Akira but i don’t want a 30 year old saying “what do YOU know about Akira? Ever saw it the day it released?” OH SHUT UP
i’ve actually internet dived so far to find a gameplay of the sega genesis AKIRA game prototype. The programming was so advanced that it became the reason why it never became a game / would have glitches on dialogue (random characters or unreadable things would appear)
but overall for it being the 80s/90s when it came out it was like mad impressive. Some animations were smooth but game controls were too janky (from what i’ve seen) could have honestly been a good game if it had a better gaming console as support for the program
the soundtrack is in yt too. SURPRISINGLY the only song i did not really like was Kaneda’s theme but pixelated. It just feels weird to me (duh, because it turned the complex orchestra into a 4-bit music piece). It was so weird though, i like EVERYTHING ELSE but kaneda’s theme (the fact i love kaneda so much too, i even shocked myself with it. But i still love the soundtrack.)
a little something i want to add is that when you’re picking levels. you’re either kaneda or tetsuo (from what i’ve seen in gameplay) and i love the little “tetsuo!” it does. The “kaneda!” was obviously the english dub, which threw me off (i mostly watched akira in spanish dub or original Japanese dub)
now thinking about it, the game made me have a feeling that i preferred some sort of thing over than kaneda. Not cool, because he’s my favorite character of all time (the brainrot was so bad, i like to think we’re related or ‘he just like me!’ character. Not enough to say i’m a fiction kin, but like we share many similarities) but to all that aside, not even the game can make me stop loving kaneda as a character. Yes he might be somewhat an ass but okay he’s silly and he’s kaneda. What i DID love about the game was his smooth ass animation. In the sewers and in his bike. Literally the SEGA intro turned blue when kaneda rolled by and shot it with the laser beam he had to fight tetsuo. You might not see it, but it’s looping in my brain now.
man, this ain’t just a favorite anime anymore huh.
leo rants out
maybe when i’m free (and there is no interruptions) i can do some requests for slam dunk. ^_^
my friend on lunch said he was getting too many tetsuo covers lately and i visibly began to panic and literally said “TETSUO? AS IN TETSUO SHIMA FROM THE 1988 MOVIE AKIRA?”
he meant kasane teto
i used to be so careless about reposting art as a pfp or in general until my childhood friend told me about it, now i check twt and tumblr accounts to see if i can use their art and now i just use manga or official content as pfps
if a sports anime has a rivalry that ain’t no damn rivalry
a normal way to think about your self-proclaimed rival
^^ the final panel being rukawa hiding in the bushes outside the court watching him as he waits for him to leave so he can practice
yamagata from akira?
i don’t really get this question but he’s a cool character. Besides from everyone saying people like Kaisuke, Tetsuo or Kaneda—Yamagata holds a cool place in my heart.(Every single character does, except the obvious ones that don’t like Nezu.) He likes to get what he wants and he just breaks rules because. Like every other character; i wish to study him more and understand him better before i say more about him.
maybe if you could specify what you’re asking? I really don’t understand the question. Sorry :(
