Rontoto - Tumblr Posts
With more moments where Toto has a blank face, especially during the Ferris wheel arc, I can't help but feel like Toto is just pretending to be happy and kind. And most likely this was not done out of malicious intent (although who knows, the theory that Toto is a villain remains valid) it is still an interesting point.
This would explain the rather strange explanation of how Toto found a safe place so quickly (sorry but it really looks like it was made up) and how he could get away from his stalker.
As long as we are NOT SHOWN how he does it, nothing prevents him from lying that he was being pursued or something like that. Although this is unlikely.
Anyway, Toto again leaves me with more questions than answers. It seems like the he is the main character of the detective story, but he has biggest mysteries.
(I was also shocked that he has a cousin)
Oh god.
Can you imagine if Ron had invented another person to cope with his misery? Meaning every single character that we have met through Toto never existed. The cases. The incidents with the Auberge, the Dolphin ship, everything were only ideas on Ron’s mind.
That would be a lonely place.
Hmmm… interesting idea. Toto has become Ron’s biggest mystery.
This image is so funny for no reason 💀💀💀😭😭😭 I can't stop laughing help me😭😭💀💀💀💀💀💀
My old arts was something eles.....💀💀
As a rontoto shipper I have to admit that I have a bunch of crazy rkdd headcanons and aus which have nothing to do with canon universe (partly because I still haven't catch up on manga)
But I guess the au and headcanons make fandom stronger💪 so hope to see more of it
I have a bad habit of mashing my current hyperfixations together. So yeah. Last night, I ended up thinking of multiple AUs for RKDD until I passed out.
So, in the greater Nasuverse, I'd like to think about how both Ron and Toto would end up meeting and then setting up their own detective agency and they just solve mysteries together. 😂
Mages Association = BLUE
Ron getting kicked out like Touko Aozaki did, but he didn't let it bother him that much. he still ended setting up business in Japan instead of London.
Ron had the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception which let's him see the Lines and Points of Death which means, if something is alive, he would know how to kill it(sounds OP but it's got limitations actually. Also, Ron is not the type to just kill someone.)
His Origin is Elucidation :^)
He's very well versed in Mordern Magecraft and that was what he tends to use, but is also familiar with Runes.
another angst factor: ron has multiple personalities like most people with mystic eyes of death perception and totomaru loves all of them uwu. Those personalities are very distinct from each other and like in the series, Totomaru Isshiki would be the one that would keep his feet on the ground
Totomaru Isshiki is a practitioner of traditional Japanese magecraft. His family was actually tasked with the protection of Japan and his family had contracts with the Deities and he'd be able to evoke their Authorities if certain conditions were met. Regularly, he uses Omnyoudou. Because using the Authority of the Gods will whittle his life force, he doesn't use it that much.
His Origin is Completeness.
Don't mind me though. This was just a fun thing to imagine.
A day in a life of RonToto: Vienna
One of the fountains of Strudlhofstiege; the palace garden park; the National Bank’s heavy door; and the historical lamppost.
Yesterday Ron and I took a walk around the AirBnB we rented in the city of Vienna. We visited the National Bank as Ron had a client there. A big shot old European aristocrat. It has to do with a person. A renowned stage actor to be exact. Ron told me to keep quiet now. So I’ll keep my mouth shut. Anyway, we visited a palace with a beautiful garden and a flight of stairs that was supposed to be one of the most beautiful of all in the city. A tip: Sigmund Freud used to live in this district and had his first consultation office here too. It is now a museum and they even preserved the couch his clients used to lie on. The birthplace of psychoanalysis.
That same day, the old aristocrat invited us for a dinner. This restaurant, Plachutta, serves traditional Viennese cuisine. He urged me to order Tafelspitz. It was so good! But the portion was probably good for two people. It was soup and main course in one. The fried potato strips were so delicious. And the soup with tender beef and bone marrow were to die for. My Japanese palate is not used to this serving. The homemade apple sauce and garlic cream were a good choice. I even had sautéed spinach. Ron had Wiener Schnitzel with potato salad and beer.
He urged me to order a Nachspeise, German word for dessert, but I was too full.
Anyway, there are a couple of Asian stores here too. To my delight one of them sells 🍡 so Ron and I grabbed one pack and we might eat them tonight.
So there you go. If Ron would let me I might talk about the case of the old aristocrat in the coming days or so.
Ah, summer in Vienna is sometimes unbearable.
Aaaaahhhhh!!! New visual for season 2 in October!

A series of events occur one after the other...
Broadcast begins in October 2024 ! ( x )
Oh my gosh!!!
I totally agree with all that and also.. yeah
Toto's character is kinda blank in some aspects and it has a lot of "empty spaces". And I think that is why he is so popular in fandom. He is not only the "eyes" of the reader, he is also a great headcanon material. Like you can imagine him smoking weed or killing ppl before and that wouldn't change the canon at all.
As for his improvement in deduction and etc.. I don't think that he would reach Ron's or Kawasemi level and I really believe that he shouldn't. He obviously gets better but his main goal is to help people and protect them and he doesn't need to be a genius to do so (and also Ron can do it now which means that Toto kinda fulfilled his mission👀)
Anywaaay I still haven't read the latest chapters of the manga so I'm probably not the one to speak😅
When I first read new chapter, I was glad that Toto's character has a development and now not afraid to look at corpses like Ron. Plus I thought he become smarter.
However, once I re-read the chapter, I realized something. Toto hasn't grown at all as a character.
His observation skills for important details have really improved, no doubt about it. But the ability to solve riddles and deduction haven't improved at all. Toto couldn’t do it and still can’t do it. After running around with Ron for over a year, I expected to see at least some kind of thought process.
And that's Toto's problem as a character in the story. He's just... boring.
No matter how much I love Toto, (he is the best in my heart) as a character he is NOT interesting to watch. He is not growing, he is as he was in the beginning “for everything good and fluffy. I value every human life” he remained that way. And it's not a bad thing i think, but compared to others it's boring.
Maybe I'm wrong but tell me how Toto has changed throughout history? And no, there’s no mention of self-confidence here because he still has self-destructive tendencies.
Now let's take others.Ron has obviously changed a lot and that's a good thing. Kawasemi changed and stopped being so strict. Chiori stopped being so a rabid fan of detective. Even Spitz and Amamiya changed somehow. I can't say anything about Toto.
No matter how paradoxical it may sound, the only thing that makes Toto stand out from the rest is his lack of personality and mysteries around him. He literally feels like a piece of cardboard but not as living person.
Most of his actions are literally told but not shown. It's like Toto himself was left out of the picture.
So yea , I think Toto is the character who suffers most at the hands of the author in manga
Heya! Thank you for waiting.
I thought about this long and hard. Like you, I love Toto, seeing that I am a Watsonian first of all. And at times, biased.
It is not easy to give you answers, bc I might change my opinion in the coming days. But for now, I can say that your concerns are valid, that Toto as a character remains somehow stagnant. On the other hand, if you change him, just a little bit, like he has reached Ron’s level in deduction we would lose him as a stand-in for the audience. Seeing that the titular character isn’t Toto, his role is more like Jiminy Cricket. He gives advices, scolds Ron, he can’t arse finding out the solution bc he isn’t the genius character. This is Ron’s place.
Once Akira changes him to something like equal to Ron then in the grand scheme of her storytelling, his role as the receiver of wonderful deduction would be gone.
And in all honesty, it is a bit mind-boggling how will Akira direct Toto’s characterisation in a new direction without involving him as someone who is part of the antagonists or giving us hints of his familial background, if she considers him as a deuteragonist of the story. Bc so far, like any Watson-esque character, he’s become a character in the background, it is the downside of having a genius and eccentric friend.
True, it is frustrating sometimes, and he’s maybe boring bc of it. In truth we applaud him when he shows signs of improvement. But I don’t think he’ll reach Kawasemi’s excellence nor Ron’s genius bc he’s none of these things. Kawasemi changed emotionally and has become a disciple of Toto.
And yet, and yet, Akira seems to be content in status quo.
He is changing but gradually. Maybe, the moment Ron will receive his license is the moment we’ll see Toto can hold his own. Cross my fingers.
PS: that’s why i am counting on the anime crew hoping that they can remedy some issues on Toto’s characterisation, which they did during the first season.
I'm thinking about the similarities between these two frames way more than I should
ron must have been really anxious while toto took that long pause to read all the incoming texts
and then hearing toto whisper his name... i would be sweating too ron! (• ▽ •;)
ALSO I NOTICED TOTO HAS FANGS (PLURAL) IN THIS LAST PANEL IT'S SOOOOO CUTE (灬º‿º灬)♡
Why does my man look so flirty here?
Toto's Reaction when he first met ron HELP
A day in a life of RonToto: Slovenia
Hey y’all!!
There is a pub and a coffeehouse that are named after me. We are somewhere in Maribor, the second biggest city in Slovenia. Ljubljana being the capital and the largest one. Ron is so amused he says the coffee here is so good, I shouldn’t feel ashamed that the kavarna has the same name.
It turns out that the owner’s grandfather gave the coffeehouse its name.
Anyway, this case is kinda hilarious. It is about “vampires” and all. Will tell everything as soon as we are back.
It is so hot so we have decided to stay on the other side of the river Drava. Unlucky that we are wasps plagued our sweaty arses (Ron's words).
