Post Time Skip Kagehina Is Insane. WHAT DO YOU MEAN 2018 WINS??? Keeping Score Since HIGH SCHOOL And

ao haru ride has such a special place in my heart. kou & futaba’s development as a couple and as individuals is so beautiful. kou had been through so much and even though it was painful, he decided to walk his own path to happiness. futaba was kou’s hero. she never gave up on him even when they weren’t talking. she always wanted to support and be by his side. she’s so loving and her vulnerability is so brave. i love them so so much!!!

today is the 20 year anniversary of vinland saga. this story is incredible. following thorfinn’s journey of revenge as a 16 year old, to a slave learning the beauty of farming, who would later understand the true meaning of “you have no enemies”. thorfinn’s character is so beautiful and so amazing. he devotes himself to a life of peace & to becoming the best man he can be. his strength and courage to be kind is inspiring. yukimura is an amazing storyteller and i am so grateful he took the time to create the perfection that is vinland saga.

i finished fishman island!!

although i wasn't hooked from the beginning, this arc really grew on me! i really loved seeing the straw hats together again after their 2 year break. considering how emotional i was from everything that happened in marineford, it took a while to adjust to the new change of pace in the series! but seeing how strong & confident the members were made me feel so proud!!

each member of the grew worked hard to become stronger individuals for themselves AND for their captain/crew. some members trained to become physically stronger, some took the time to educate themselves, and some did both! zoro, nami, luffy, & robin are my personal favorite straw hats, so seeing them as better versions of themselves made me really happy!!! i love how hard everyone worked, and you could see it all pay off in this arc!

once i read/watched more of this arc, i started to really enjoy the plot! It was a very different side of one piece that we hadn't seen yet, other than in the sabaody archipelago arc. it expanded on the prejudice & discrimination that fishmen faced throughout history. how the hatred finds its way to the children, which creates more hatred. i really loved the narrator's monologue during the scene where jimbei gives his blood to luffy. it perfectly summarized the painful history between humans & fishmen. with jimbei's selfless act, it begins a new path for fishman island.

personally, this arc isn't in my top 5, but i really did enjoy it! i found it to be fun and the plot very interesting. i also really liked that we found out what the ancient weapon actually was in this arc after hearing about it for so long.

overall, i really loved how this arc showed us how much the straw hats grew during the timeskip. everyone did their best to become stronger so they could be prepared for the journey to the new world. i find it beautiful how devoted they are to each other and to their captain. i'm looking forward to what's next!

i miss them

reunion after bakugo had tp spend a month in a specialized rehab clinic a few hours away

the new kagehina official arts have been so adorable and perfect!!! i love how it shows the little things they do together outside of practicing volleyball. not only are they inseparable on the court but also in their daily lives. they’re just so cute!!! i love when shoyo smiles so big and when tobio pouts in the background. it’s so THEM!!!

also this art hinting at the “you can fly higher” scene is so peak and perfect. tobio looking at shoyo so intently while shoyo’s probably rambling about something random. no matter what shoyo is doing, tobio will always look over at him. THIS IS PERFECT 😭😭

new skip to loafer chapter just got uploaded. life is beautiful once again. the world would be a better place if everyone read skip to loafer I think. I wish the dinosaurs hadn’t been hit by that meteor so they too could’ve enjoyed reading it.

finally reading lovely complex after watching the anime years ago and it’s bringing back all the cozy, giggly feelings i had. shoujos like this are so comforting to me! i love romance so much so this is such a fun read!!! love koizumi and otani so much!!! they’re so silly and fun! koizumi especially is so relatable to me. currently on chapter 10 and i’m feeling so giddy & happy. romance really is the perfect medicine for me. I LOVE LOVELY COMPLEX!!

24/7
