bro arajin better start getting his act together next episode bc idk how much more i can take of him fumbling literally the best bf material
if bucchigiri has arajin say something like "10 years from now, I see us eating gyoza together" i think i will explode
Knowing Arajin's IQ, he'll probably get the hint in four episodes or so
You see, these screenshots actually foreshadow what's going to happen in the Bucchigiri finale.
Mrs Tomoshibi, wearing CHERRY pajamas (a symbol of virginity), explains to her dumbass virgin son that loving someone means "surrendering your body and soul". This is going to be important to Arajin, who will realize he DOES care about Matakara and not because Mahoro or Shindo told him to ("Have you ever thought about Matakara's feelings?"/"If you don't hurry up, Ichiya will take over Matakara's body!"). To save Matakara, stricken by despair, Arajin will have to surrender his body (to Senya, because a fight with Ichiya is inevitable. His wish will no longer be "losing my virginity") and to surrender his soul (to Matakara. Arajin will have to make himself emotionally vulnerable to connect with Matakara and help him). And then-
I had this idea about Arajin and Matakara floating around in my head recently, so I couldn't help but go into it a little more and wanted to share it here too, it's kind of short
When they were kids Matakara sleeps over at Arajin's house and asks him "How does it feel to have a mom?" but his friend had fallen asleep…
Some time after they had reconciled, Matakara sleeps over at Arajin's house and can't help but ask him that same question again. Arajin, knowing what that means to him, answers him…
Arajin: She can be annoying at times, it seems like she's always watching every step you take, she asks you questions out of place and even behaves in an embarrassing way. But… she's also the one who welcomes you home with a smile and a plate of freshly made food, she's always happy to see you, she teaches you many things saying that it's for your own good, or she'll tell you that you look handsome even if you don't think so.
Matakara: Yes… I think that's it, actually... I'd forgotten. I should thank your mother for reminding me, it was nice.
Arajin: So that's what it was about… well, she's always been like that (She became very insistent about that after telling her about Matakara's parents).
Matakara: She's been very kind to me, I really appreciate it.
Arajin: It's not so strange if you think about it.… you're my best friend after all… in some way that makes you part of the family, doesn't it? Besides... since she raised me well, I don't need so much attention anymore.

inspired by @toofpaste-art’s post about Kaimon’s photos of each other
Not to be 10000% negative and cynical about but why do I feel like at some point in BUCCHIGIRI?!, Matakara just suddenly snapped at Arajin in a future episode. Like he just gets fed up with Arajin’s rude and distant behaviour and just straight up calls him out.
Gods, it would be so devastating not because of the angst potential, but the fact that despite being reunited with his childhood friend (well sweetheart lol), Arajin just keeps brushing him off, ignoring him, and chasing a girl who is clearly using him for selfish reasons.
And then suddenly, Arajin suddenly blurted out that it’s because of the guilt that he couldn’t protect Matakara during their childhood and that he broke their promise, complete with Arajin just breaking down.
Matakara would be shocked but disappointed that this is what kept Arajin back? Well, he understands but Matakara would walk out. He wouldn’t say anything but the look of his face is just…disappointment.
