A3! Chikage - Tumblr Posts
i thought this'd be funny asf omg so can you sort mankai actors by whether they can whistle or not?? it's okay if u don't but i just think it'd be rlly funny lmaooo
Ajdkfhdnkd this was fun!! I also threw in izumi, matsukawa, and sakoda for funsies!
Can whistle and is good at it: itaru, citron, chikage, tsuzuru, misumi, banri, taichi, azuma, guy, matsukawa, tetsuro
Can whistle mostly well: yuki, kazunari, omi, azami, homare, sakoda
Cannot whistle and is fine with it: sakuya, masumi, muku, juza, sakyo, tsumugi, hisoka
Cannot whistle and is furious/upset about it: tenma, kumon, tasuku, Izumi
OH THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! FANTASTIC!!!
Have you listened to Itaru's new solo? Or Chikage's? They have me crying all the time bc of the character growth
I LOVE BOTH OF THEM <33333 i could go talking about the solos for hours since both of them has so so many layers, but here’s a quick rundown :D
seeds
compared to petenshi no yuutsu, it sounds a lot less frantic and happier. it sounds relaxed and it gives an image of floating in the clouds (for me).
the first part sounds like he’s kinda holding himself back in front of the public since it sounds like something you'd find in a cafe. then it picks up a bit, building up to the chorus, which i imagine to reflect the time after [redacted] died. chikage repeats the lyrics of “things” which could allude to the words he wanted to say to [redacted], or the words he used to tell to himself to keep himself afloat from grief.
THEN THE CHORUS!!! UUUUU it has me in emotional tatters especially the line with their (his family’s) sweetness becoming his spice!!! it means that he’s willing to let himself get loved now, instead of still rolling in grief and anger.
AND THE line with the “they might be odd, not quite normal companions/but they will become my precious family”!!! it’s such a huge development because it means everyone in mankai instead of a few. HE CARES SO MUCH FOR THEM!!
also pinocchioP :DD some of my favorite vocaloid songs (common world domination and nobody makes sense) were made by them too
i also remember the recent harugumi livestream!! wataru hatano said that it took them multiple tries to properly express the emotions in seeds and i love the absolute care they put into producing the song .
seeds woah woah woah seeds yeah yeah yeah seeds woah woah woah seeds oh seeds
real luck
the real luck we found is in our friends
i am putting this song on when cramming stuff because it’s great grinding music . it’s frantic but in the way of grinding a game, not petenshi frantic where you’re trying to run away.
i love how it still keeps elements from gamer’s high but also introduces new elements (in the music and lyrics). THE CALLBACK TO GAMER’S HIGH TOO!!! IT WAS MAKING ME SO EMOTIONAL AT 11 PM.
also if you notice, itaru’s voice sounds deeper compared to gamer’s high. itaru actually pitches his voice up when he’s faking (see voiced kniroun and when he talked to tonooka), and this also signifies that he completely trusts mankai too. he sounds raw-er than what he’d sound if he’s putting up a front.
I WILL NEVER GET OVER HOW HE SEES MANKAI AS THE BEST EVER GUILD. he’s not protecting himself from getting hurt now because he knows they won’t turn their backs on itaru and itaru trusts them. “i’m not giving up anymore” UEUEUEUUEUE when you watch the anime, you’ll see how far he’s come.
“that’s right, i now have something i’m serious about and i now have a place to belong” “i can trust them and they won’t betray me. we’re like a family.”“ [autotuned baby noises]
mawase mase mase mase mase mase mase mase mase
adorable!!!!!!! i feel like itaru and hisoka have seen him do this and they were so blown away by the cuteTM that they assumed they hallucinated it
Hey you know how when your glasses slide down your nose you can scrunch up and wiggle your nose a bit to readjust them, like a little rabbit?
Do you think
Do you think Chikage does this when his hands are full and he thinks no one's watching?
How they act when you’re overworked, Spring Troupe version!
(oh my goodness I only realised after the fact that I made almost every character bring you food.,.,,. I guess I was hungry while writing lol)
Sakuya: Saku-saku will actually be very concerned if you’re stressed and overworked. Will continually ask how you’re feeling and if you need anything. Will gently pull you aside every so often to take a nap if you’re falling asleep on your textbook. You don't know when it happened, but you realise that at some point he put his sweater on you and it was super cozy and smelled really good.,.,.,an all around sweetie <3
Masumi: ok, one of two options here, he either acts like he doesn’t care but you will find snacks and drinks on your desk while you work (he has thrown them at your head before and Sakuya made him apologize for that ) OR he will be after you 24/7 to make sure you’re taking care of yourself, he will never leave your room until you’re done.
Tsuzuru: horribly hypocritical, you will get a lecture if you stay up late. But, he will supply you with snacks and very basic meals if you have classes and/or work so you don’t crash
Citron: he tends to just sit next to you, lean against you, keep you company. This’ll be one of the few times he isn’t chattering away or singing something to you out of respect for your concentration. If you get cold he will crawl onto you like a lap-dog, it's just so comfy cozy! Drapes his big warm scarves over your shoulders. Sometimes brings you tea, he brews it himself <3
Itaru: hands you an energy drink or black coffee. “awww poor thing. You’ll be fine tho”,.,.,.meanie /lh. If you want company while you work he’ll sit next to you and play his games without the volume on so he won't disturb you too much.
Chikage: will regularly bring meals in for you. Ok, by meals I mean curry but you knew that already. Hands you a plate of spicy tripe curry and tells you that it cures all symptoms of fatigue but it will also tinge your skin blue from the excess of selenium and zinc (false, that will not happen i promise you). You just squinted at him as menacingly as possible while taking the plate. He does cook really well and the spice has the added side effect of making you drink more water, thus making you hydrated! Evil mastermind behavior right here!!
Citron and Chikage have a literally insane amount of scarves between them. During the autumn and winter seasons, Citron will run to bundle up anyone who doesn't have a scarf with them before they go out because he doesn't want anyone catching a cold. Sakuya has at least 3 scarves on his side of their room at any time. It’s super cute seeing Citron wrapping up Saku-saku every morning before classes/ before any outings. The scarves also smell really nice, like almost a spiced perfume-like scent. Citron’s scarves always smell like spiced sweets (cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, you know the vibe) and Chikage’s smell more like plain spice and curry and like, sterile office building smell.
tetsuro, omi, guy, tasuku, chikage, and misumi are all [individually] strong enough to pick up almost everyone in mankai. thus, anyone who wants it will get regular pick-upsies!!! everyone loves picking up muku bc hes such a sweet little fella :”)))) def the baby of mankai. almost everyone is strong enough to lift izumi in a princess carry and shes strong enough to lift quite a few troupe members too!! [teeechnically hisoka can too but he usually will not bother..,.,he does make exceptions for sakuya and muku tho,.,.,] azuma gets VERY giggly when he’s picked up,,.,ough,.,swoons,.,,.he is so special to me,,.,omi was veryyy hesitant when taichi asked him if he wanted someone to try and pick him up, so tai-chan obviously enlisted the help of guy and tetsuro to see if either of them were strong enough. turns out, both were!!! omi was blushing and smiling as FUCK it was vv cute
i will tell u a secret tho,.,.hisoka once picked up homare bridal style and homa HASNT SHUT UP ABOUT IT SINCE!!!! HE WAS SO ENAMOURED!!!! so!!! homare started regularly lifting weights with tasuku [he may have had to convince homa not to start lifting with 30 pound weights and mayyybe work his way up instead…] and after a good few months of spouting poems about exercising, he was finally able to lift hiso!!! good job homare!!!!
