Really quick Tenma Brothers drawing because I needed to draw them.
Tsukasa 100% gives injury kisses btw. He kisses Saki's IV needle areas a lot after she gets to take them out, Toya getting caught in bushes when he's escaping his home situation for a while, any Leo/Need members when they get hurt, etc
Also also. Which OC is Kotori? I don't remember them from kwko so are they from somewhere else?
But hbd to them!
Kotori is an important NPC for KWKO storyline! She is not a part of any unit, however. She's not talked about on the main account aside from subtle hints (you can find them if you look close enough) because she's unfortunately a walking talking spoiler and technically doesn't even have (present time) lines until post main story, which is breaking my heart because it'll take a while to get to, and I love her!
(inspired by the meme @the-one-that-weeps made from another perspective because it's hilarious)
Hoc is currently the only person who knows about her because I bother them with KWKO info dumps on the daily, and even they don't half the stuff going on with her. And I'm holding back ever so tightly to not spoil everything, honestly.
But her birthday is May 18. That's all you can know lmao.
Kotori says thank you!
Last yap session of the day but while I’m at it, i wanna share my kanade headcanons!!
Unrelated opinions paragraph here, scroll to the red title to get to the actual hc’s
Headcanons are a tough thing for me in the pjsk fandom because sometimes I see people get a little lost in the sauce and use ‘hc’ when what they really mean is ‘au’ or ‘thing I want to happen/wish happened.’ In addition, many hcs I’ve seen tend towards being reductive in my opinion, or not necessarily accurate to the way I see the character. This is fine with me! I love fandom discourse (as long as everyone stays respectful). Everything is a matter of opinion, and as someone who prefers to stay near the canon-accurate side of things (unless I am making an au, see: evil nightcord) not everything will be for me. All that is to say, these takes might not be super daring. I’ve thought a lot before coming to my own conclusions about my favorite characters, and feel a strong need to sufficiently explain and support my takes with evidence and elaboration. But I do hope they’re fun to read nonetheless, and I’d love to hear other people’s opinions as well as their own hcs in the reblogs, contradictory or otherwise!
KANADE HEADCANONS (in order from least to most elaboration)
1) kanade has albinism :D she inherited it from her mom, and it’s (part of) why the sun is especially rough on her
2) kanade is terrible at stem, especially math. She seriously struggles doing operations in her head, she has good spacial awareness but can’t grasp conceptual stuff. When she was younger her parents considered getting her a tutor, but since she’s going into music anyway she just took the bare minimum math classes and moved on
3) (this is a little contrary to canon but) kanade DOES have some semblance of a hair routine (bc how else is it not all matted by now). When she was younger, her mom liked to dress her up and would braid her hair before bed, so kanade always brushes and braids her hair whenever she goes to sleep properly instead of passing out. She will neglect her own needs for the purposes of composing, but her hair feels more like her mom’s than hers, so she makes sure to take good care of it.
4) kanade is the rectangle body type. I only feel the need to say this myself because pjsk has such little variation between their character models, and you really have to look hard to discern their features from one another, but I do think it’s fairly obvious for kanade in particular. Part of it is her lack of healthy eating habits, but I always picture Kanade to be relatively flat with a boxy torso and a round face
5) kanade is demiromantic & ace! (This one is just for me) but I like to imagine her wondering at some point why she doesn’t have crushes on anyone while in junior high school, but all of those thoughts get pushed aside and mostly forgotten after her dad collapsed because ‘I don’t have time for that, I need to make music.’ In terms of other orientation, I imagine kanade to be pan as I don’t think she would have much of a preference as long as she knows the person well. And I can’t honestly picture her going out of her way to use pronouns other than ‘she/her,’ at least in the context of canon.
(Now for the more major/stretching canon hcs)
6) kanade has a chronic illness, which is a major cause of her general fatigue. Yes I know it’s canonically because she doesn’t eat enough or go outside but I think that’s part of why she doesn’t know about it: she rarely engages in physical activity, so she chalks up fatigue to lack of practice, not realizing her fatigue is abnormal. I also think it makes sense for her because her parents both have histories of underlying conditions. Not that pjsk gives us anything to work with, but we know her mom passed away of an illness, and her dad suffered a stroke due to stress; one so major that it could only have been caused by an underlying condition. Running on the assumption that she would have inherited her condition from her mother, I’m sure this would be a subject that would, at least, be on Kanade’s mind. I can’t imagine when she was younger that she would be able to understand her mother’s condition in its entirety. But I can easily imagine as Kanade grows older and puts herself out there more, her having to confront that she may be sick. She would admit her concerns to her grandmother once she realizes she can’t deny it anymore, and her grandmother would confess that she had feared this all along; that it was the same condition her mother suffered from. It’s a compelling concept to me, and one I definitely want to fanfic in the future…
Last but not least, the one you’ve been waiting for:
7) kanade has autism. This one is also tough because project sekai gives us nothing but my CANON evidence is: she eats the same thing every day (not just out of convenience because she also orders noodles when she goes out to eat), wears the same thing every day (verified in a 1koma that she has several of the same outfit, and possibly pointing to sensory issues), focuses on composing for such long stretches that she forgets to eat and take care of herself, and ofc, special interest. I also like to think that kanade is hyper-empathetic, doing things in her childhood like: “I have to spend the same amount of time with all my stuffed animals so none of them feel left out”. Not having the words (much less the diagnosis) to explain some of her behaviors, when she goes nonverbal with niigo she will use the chat function and say something like ‘my voice hurts,’ or more often skip out on the call saying she needs to focus for a while (because when she’s stressed enough to be nonverbal, she’s also going to fall back into the mindset of needing to work herself to death composing). She stimmed a lot when she was younger but (as many do) learned to mask it as she got older. It still manifests in her drumming her fingers on her desk, bouncing her knees, etc. when working at home, and a lot of the time vocally in the form of singing. Her house has always been musical, so this was never a problem. But whenever honami hears her doing this (as it’s often without her realizing it) she gets very embarrassed, so honami pretends not to hear it so that Kanade will do it more.

ummm portrait….. I tried to draw a beautiful face but idk. i hope i did it well
are you ready for Akitoya Week? :D
Update to clear up some things I’ve been seeing in the tags.
Yes, leaving out gen fics does skew the number. But there isn’t much of a reason to assume that the distribution of nonshipping fics will be vastly different from the distribution of shipping fics, as both are written more for more popular characters. However, even if we assume every single gen fic is written about a female character, the ratio is still 1 : 803, which is less than a third of the male characters’ 1 : 2626
Even if we were to assume EVERY fic not specifically listed as being about men was about only women (which is a ridiculous assumption to make), the figures would be 1 : 1076. Which is still less than half as much as the men. See how uneven that is?
Nitpicks below:
From one user responding to another:
Yes, this is the issue I’m highlighting; more fics are written and more content is made because the male characters are more popular. However, there are 2 things I have to say about this.
1) why assume people make content only for engagement? Fan content is made for the love of what you’re creating. Fandoms are born when people say, ‘hey why isn’t there any content about this? I guess I’ll have to make it myself!’ Good fan content isn’t made for attention. I encourage anyone reading this with unpopular tastes to go out and make your own content! That is how communities grow, make things because you love it, not for notes and kudos
2) it is a fixable issue. The purpose of my original post was to highlight the obvious discrepancy between male and female characters in the project sekai fandom. By noticing this behavior in ourselves, we can open our minds and improve as people. This brings me to my next addition:
This is a good point, so I want to clarify. I am NOT saying you have to be a misogynist— as in, telling women to go back to the kitchen— to favor male characters. Misogyny exists in all of us, even the most dedicated feminists, as a product of the world we live in. That’s why I encourage people to notice it. I notice it every day, I noticed it after making my original post when I realized I listed the statistics for the male characters first on instinct. We all have room to grow.
Lastly, to the rb above me; I appreciate your addition, you made some good points! please stop calling Toya/tsukasa incest. They aren’t related. It’s okay to not like the ship, I don’t like it either, so please just say that
Project sekai ship fics on AO3:
Ratio of # of male pjsk characters to fanfics about men (excluding gen category): 1:2626
Ratio of # of female pjsk characters to fanfics about women: 1:557
Let me say that again. For every 1 male character in project sekai, there are 2626 fics about him. For every 1 female character in project sekai, there are only 557 fics about her. Come on pjsk fandom… you should be better than that :/
(More figures & calculations below)
Number of male pjsk characters (excluding vs)*: 4
Number of female pjsk characters (excluding vs)*: 16
Total # of fics excluding gen category: 19422
3358 het fics/2 = 1679 per gender partner
% of women vs % of men in pjsk: 80% : 20%
1679+8826=10505 fics/19422=~54% of fics are about men
1679+7238=8917 fics/19422=~46% of fics are about women
*please note that if vs were included, the percentages and ratios would be the same (26 women/6 men)
If you are primarily a fan of male characters or have a male character as your fav. Ask yourself why that is. I’m guilty of this too. Most of us are guilty of this. Examine your biases and try to move past them. There is already enough misogyny in the world.

Don’t get attached to unpopular ships because you will run out of fic and die
Hello

Hey OP, I’m really sorry to tell you this, but the gofundme you’re currently reblogging is a scam. The user who posted this has posted no updates on their profile, answers no asks, and has no way to verify their legitimacy. Searching the ask you received will bring up the hundreds of times they’ve copied the same message to mass send to as many blogs as they can find, and they do nothing but repost the same original post asking for money on their account. Please don’t just reblog every ask you get claiming to be a Palestinian in need of money. This post is very helpful for identifying scams so that people’s money goes towards those who actually need it. I hope this helps!
