Day 2: Best Friends / Favorite Side Character

🦊

"Draw me a fox!"

said the person taking this picture to members of Inarizaki's volleyball team. Who is no one in particular, could be you, could be me, could be my Haikyuu OC.

Started as a doodle of me just wanting to draw the 3rd years interacting with my OC that just devolved into its own thing. Sorry if it's cringe I did this all in the wee early hours of the morning listening to Project Zomboid gameplay

captions for written words in Alt. Text.

Taken from the perspective of a different character that could be you, your OC or someone else. Originally I wanted to do it from the perspective of my Haikyuu OC but then reading the captions I realized that it's too nice for the way I wrote her so just take it like it's a classmate, your character or someone else writing it.

I love the 3rd years so much I can't explain why but yes

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!

For your present I give you Charolette lore!

Prepare for a yap session!

As we know Charolette was the second to fall, due to Chara being buried underneath the buttercups and Charolette being sealed away and given to the king she had no one to talk to, she was stuck by herself for the longest time.

She would spend most of her time crying. Wishing she didn't die, wondering why this happened to her, what she did wrong. She'd ask herself that all the time.

She was incredibly lonely, often mumbling to herself to give the vibe that she was having a conversation with someone. She just wanted a friend, a friend she could relate to. She couldn't find that in Harry because he was...well Harry. Though when he fell she made herself toughen up so she could care for them, so she could make sure they were safe. She became the therapist of the group along with Clover.

Because of her growing attached to the other kids she grew protective of them as well. Especially Clover and Apricot considering she got along with them the most.

She wouldn't defend herself but if you disrespected those two in any way she'd silently glare at you.

Anyways that's all! I figured I haven't said anything about her in a long while so here she is!

Where have you buried all the children?

Working on a project that is draining my life force as we speak, so i took a break by doodling Orion!

Idk if im gonna keep the tail with his design, just trying it out.

Also bonus Clover! Orion disliked Clover for barely two minutes after they met, but now he loves being an uncle. He tries to deny it, but his ass is NOT convincing.

Just like You said, the things that playtime co mede to many kids and adults and killing the people who dont have to know that the toys are Alive.

And worse it's when they torture the same orphans turned into toys and if they not bahave put them in the prisión or something worse like put them to fight for food and they cherring like if was a show.

So it's normal that they deserve the hour of joy

Hey, back with a random poll because I just like people's opinions. This is for those who enjoy indie horror games!

To me, there's an obvious answer, when thinking about all the games they star in, but I'm curious about everyone else's thoughts.

(My answer under read more)

Playtime Co. Without a shadow of a doubt. Yes, Fazbear Entertainment was shady as all Hell, sweeping countless deaths under the rug, and Joey Drew Studios was simply a terrible environment, in real life and the Ink realm, but neither of them tortured people as badly as Playtime Co. Kids, teens and even colleagues were torn apart, pieces put in toys and machines, which were then opened back up and rearranged, over and over again. "People" like Harley Sawyer make "people" like William Afton look innocent.

Their all so stupid

I luv em

accommodations as a love language: a fukurodani essay

Fukurodani is probably the most unique team in Haikyuu when it comes to the team leadership structure. Bokuto is captain with Akaashi as his vice-captain. However, the unusual part of this is that Akaashi is a second year vice-captain in a team with no shortage of third years. If you know anything about Japanese senpai/kouhai dynamics, you will see how unusual this is. Compared to another second year setter-leader Kenma, Akaashi is very formal with the third years and seems to be a stickler to the system of sports culture.

Another unique thing about Fukurodani is that their captain’s number is 4 instead of 1. It becomes clear that Bokuto who wears the traditional number for the ace functions more as the ace of the team, rather than their leader. The training camp arc further cements this idea with Coach Ukkai and Miyanoshita Eri, manager of Ubugawa, making comments on Fukurodani’s play style:

Fukurodani is a team that has learned to accommodate Bokuto's ups-and-downs. They have complete trust in Bokuto’s abilities and Bokuto has trust in Fukurodani to not lose without him.

They are strong enough without Bokuto,

but they want Bokuto to do well.

Akaashi even states in 244 that although Bokuto's concerns may seem comical to some, they are very important to Bokuto and, therefore, Akaashi takes them seriously as well.

Bokuto is their mood maker and is very reliable. If you look through the Fukurodani matches, he is always the one praising his teammates for good plays and many people have commented that Bokuto being on a roll inspires others to do better as well.

This is especially striking considering Bokuto’s experience with his middle school team, ch. 335, where Bokuto was seen as too much and as a result, he often worked alone. Fukurdani is so important to Bokuto because they represent unconditional love and support.

As revealed later on in the plot, Bokuto is aware of his shortcomings. He takes responsibility for them, but also acknowledges Fukurodani’s help. He appreciates their support so much and wants to repay their kindness.

However, Bokuto is not the only one that receives the endless support of Fukurodani. They are a cohesive team and there are many scenes where they display familiarity with each other’s patterns. 

Akaashi's habit of overthinking is noticed by Saru, Kaori points out that Akaashi is considered odd, Bokuto steps up to show his trust in Akaashi even when he starts to crumble. The team is not surprised when Akaashi starts crying and lets Bokuto be the one to comfort him.

It shows the unconditional love and support Fukurodani has for all members of the team.

They are not overly concerned when a member does not play their best because they trust each other wholeheartedly.

It is significant that they are the only team who are introduced together in the timeskip. It introduces the idea that Fukurodani is still a unit. There are even parallel lines where:

Bokuto, ch. 392: “梟谷(みんな)！！普通になった俺を見てくれ!”

“Everyone!! Look at how normal I am now (how far I’ve come)!”

Akaashi (and implied Konoha, Komi, Saru), ch. 400: “世界！！梟谷(うち)のエースを見てくれ！”

“World!! Look at our ace!”

There is an interesting technique used here in the Japanese where the kanji says “Fukurodani” but the Furigana says “everyone” and “our.” The world “our” is also special because it is “うち” which is a word that derives from “home.” Bokuto belongs to Fukurodani and Fukurodani is narratively a family.

Fukurodani is introduced in Haikyuu when Karasuno is learning to grapple with Hinata's new-found desire to improve begins to destabilize the team dynamic. They show Karasuno that selfishness is okay with your team's support, leading to the honing of new weapons and Kageyama's reclaimation of his crown. They symbolize a different type of strength that Karasuno did not have yet. Although the roles they cultivated allowed for some stagnation and stress during the Mujinazaka match, they were able to overcome difficulties to become even stronger, falling just short of #1 in Japan. Still, their loss became more of a reason to pursue their goals and although not all of them play volleyball anymore, they come together across Japan to support each other.

Silly guys
