Thank You For Your Bucchigiri Content! I Love The Diversity Of Your Stories. Matakara Is Amazing, But

Thank you for your Bucchigiri content! I love the diversity of your stories. Matakara is amazing, but sometimes I want to read about Shindo too and you write him very well. Can’t wait for more of him the coming episodes, it looks like he hasn’t given up yet considering the last episode.

Thanks so much! I love writing them and I love both the characters for very different reasons; like Matakara is such a good Boi and Shindo is so fun to watch be an asshole. I'm glad he's still going to be involved in the series it feels like a waste if the writers were like "welp, he's been defeated don't need him in the story anymore".

I’m sorry but the Dub is having me laugh! 🤣🤣🤣

I'm watching both but the dub is so hilarious, it's actually becoming my favorite in comparison!

yesterday I watched bucchigiri and I was totally devastated by poor Matakara he has only suffered since the beginning of the anime. If at the end of the anime Matakara doesn't forgive Arajin I won't think it's a bad ending or if Matakara forgives him and doesn't want to be his friend anymore either I won't find a bad ending. I hope that at the end of the anime Matakara will benefit and not that he will suffer more.

Honestly I'd like them to be friends again and I feel like that is probably where the shows going to (especially with the emphasis on the two being parallels of each other and how the narrative seems to want the audience to root for them to make up) But if it ends with them amicably deciding to go separate ways I can see that too. I'm super curious how Matakara is going to act towards Arajin now that he's been essentially forced to see that the images he's had of him all this time isn't who he built up Arajin to be. As much as Arajin sucks at times, I couldn't honestly say I dislike his character; he's more just interesting to me, it's been a while since I've been so invested in seeing how a character is going to change or grow in the story.

I saw the post on tumblr talking about Senya that maybe he is gay, you know the anime doesn't talk much about Senya but I think that his color red and the other genie's color being blue must have some meaning, are they one? couple but they fought?

Honestly I'm guessing this is going to be another case of their relationship having more the subtext/undertones of being romantic than being acknowledged in series as gay (the intense way Senya talks about Ichiya and the way the narrative itself plays it out gives the implication it's a long standing rivalry and a failed past relationship). There's also how Arajin (red) and Matakara's (blue) estranged relationship mirrors Senya's desire to meet Ichiya once again; viewers are obviously meant to draw a parallel, and the tension between them now is also giving the vibe of past romantic relationship that didn't work out. If the writers do make Senya and Ichiya's relationship explicitly romantic (or they were once lovers at least) I would be one happy camper!

What is happening to Matakara is breaking my heart.

Damn my man is going through it.

SPOILERS:

Also, I didn't realize until Arajin said it outloud that Matakara didn't actually know this whole time he ran away from those bullies. Was that just me? I feel like that wasn't really explained prior. But whatever, as someone who lost an older sibling who was (always will be) my best friend, I legit started crying thinking Mitsukuni was already dead. Like wtf, when did this show get so real?

Also, also, totally off topic...but damn was Ichiya worth the wait. 🥵

I wonder what Senya meant by the time has come, will he possess Arajin's body and what do you think Senya is using Arajin to fight Ichiya?

It seems like Honki people (entities? Genies?) aren't able to have corporal forms so they need to latch onto someone strong enough as a vessel and Arajin is finally showing he has the strength and will to merge. Based on what little we have on Senya and Ichiya he wants to meet him again and fight him. Maybe he lost their last encounter? But it also feels like there's something else going on, something more than just Senya wanting to fight Ichiya. I guess we'll see.
