Shin Tsukimi is an excellent character, but unfortunately his fanbase consists of the most obnoxious media illiterate people in the world.

No his treatment of Sara is not justified, she’s a teenager and this adult man has tried to kill her, intentionally triggered her on MULTIPLE occasions, and accused her of horrible shit to her face.

No, greenblings is not superior to the Keiji Sara dynamic, they’re meant to parallel each other, Shin does just as many awful things to Kanna as Keiji to Sara, they both grow to care about their wards, and ignoring all the points of growth with one of them while uplifting the other, and treating Keiji as uniquely evil regardless of his circumstances and Shin as the pure innocent baby who was just scared is the worst example of excusing all actions of skinny twink characters since DRV3 (and it’s also infuriating how people point to Qtaros behavior in the first main game as reason they hate him ignoring his character development while Shin trying to get Kanna killed to save his skin gets crickets)

No he isn’t dirty, it’s a literal plot point how ridiculously clean he is, and calling him that illuminates a lot on your view of poor people.

No, them not saying in the text ‘Midori abused him’ does not mean they weren’t abusive, look at all the fucking evidence, and engage with the work instead of zoning in on yaoi.

Take the actual character and his flaws instead of making him into an easily digestible fandom archetype and kicking down other characters.

I would NEVER be mad about you rambling about Keiji dog motif, lay it on me

Okay so.

First I should mention the obvious Joe dog motifs. The dog keychain in his design, him directly saying he’s like a dog in the end of 2-2 emotion route. He’s loyal to Sara and continues to follow her even after his death.

But Joe dog motifs and his parallels to Keiji could be its own post… and Keiji Shinogi is also extremely dog coded. The explicit references to it like ‘Mr Policeman’s not a dog’ or a joke Sara makes about giving him treats in one of their token negotiations… and this can mean two things. It’s his standing behind Sara as an ally and taking her side. He often waits for her word to do things, and spends the game propping her up as a leader. In the scene where they see Hayasakas victim video, as shitty as him doing so is, him asking Sara if he can put his life in her hands is a way of expressing his support is uncoditional. But we also know that he’s not exactly perfectly loyal like Joe is. Lest we forget the entire second main game. He has lied, and kept things from her, and he even left her for dead with the sacrifice.

But a dog can also represent something else… a police dog. After all, Keiji is former police. He was trained to shoot first ask questions later, something that resulted in the death of his idol, and grew up his whole life being preparing himself to be put in this system that’s full of corruption. And as much as he distances himself from that now, he very much still contains the traits of a cop.

While Joe represents the more sort of normal playful dog idea of man’s best friend, Keiji represents a guard dog. He’s there behind Sara as her most powerful ally, her closest confidant and the one who made her the leader, and also as the policeman, who’s willing to lie or look the other way out of convenience.

when i see shin and radiohead oh i know its gonna be good

i am all days

that you choose to ignore

confession 31: The Gin mastermind theory is flawed because if Gin had the kind of money to make the death game, he would spend it all on fursona commissions and robux

forgot to post
