NOMURAAA JUST MAKE IT CANON ALREADY

You know, I’m fully prepared for the possibility of soriku not being canon, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen the dev team talk about Sora and Krackerjack’s relationship. Hell, I don’t think they talk about Krackerjack at all.

But when it comes to talking about Sora and Riku:

And y’all think s/k is the focus?

Carole and Tuesday + Mafuyu and Uenoyama  cause these band animes have been super cute.

Hi I made art of 067 and 240 from squid game

Riku: I treated Sora like a brother because I thought I was supposed to since I was a year older than him. When did I stop thinking of him that way?

Sora: Do Riku and I act like siblings? We’re like Elsa and Anna, but is that what sisters are? Are Riku and I like that?

Also Sora: Goofy’s like a big brother.

nobara and maki:

“I’ll never forget the first time I touched….. your hand”

I’ve noticed the Cinderella parallels with kingdom hearts and this one with the prince and anastasia and sora and kairi has me in my feels

Lgbt anime I highly recommend

However, his investigation is hindered when Dino sends his men to retrieve the drug from Ash at an underground bar he uses as a hideout.

At the bar, Skip, Ash's friend, introduces him to Shunichi Ibe and his assistant, Eiji Okumura, who are Japanese photographers reporting on American street gangs.

These two friends share a similar secret and find solace in one another; however, their lives become even more complicated when they must tread the unfamiliar waters of a new school, attempt to make new friends, and struggle to maintain old ones.

Suddenly awakened from the book, the Beast of the Seal, Keroberos (nicknamed Kero-chan), tells Sakura that she has released the mystical Clow Cards created by the sorcerer Clow Reed.

bloom into you (2018)

Yet, when her classmate from junior high declares his love for her during their graduation, she feels unexpectedly hollow. The realization hits her: she understands romance as a concept, but she is incapable of experiencing the feeling first-hand.

Now, having enrolled in high school, Yuu, disconcerted and dispirited, is still ruminating over how to respond to her suitor. There, she happens upon the seemingly flawless student council president, Touko Nanami, maturely rejecting a confession of her own.

Yuu quickly finds herself in the palm of Touko's hand, and unknowingly sets herself on a path to find the emotion which has long eluded her.”

No.6 (2011)

“Many years ago, after the end of a bloody world war, mankind took shelter in six city-states that were peaceful and perfect... at least on the surface. However, Shion—an elite resident of the city-state No. 6—gained a new perspective on the world he lives in, thanks to a chance encounter with a mysterious boy, Nezumi. Nezumi turned out to be just one of many who lived in the desolate wasteland beyond the walls of the supposed utopia. But despite knowing that the other boy was a fugitive, Shion decided to take him in for the night and protect him, which resulted in drastic consequences: because of his actions, Shion and his mother lost their status as elites and were relocated elsewhere, and the darker side of the city began to make itself known.

Now, a long time after their life-altering first meeting, Shion and Nezumi are finally brought together once again—the former elite and the boy on the run are about to embark on an adventure that will, in time, reveal the shattering secrets of No. 6.”
