What the fuck is this? Having an ad like this, especially on apps or phones that could be shown to a young child at any moment, should be illegal. What kind of advertisement for a game even is this? I’m genuinely so sick of modern mobile game ads. They’ve all become so sexualized. It wasn’t even like this before😭
Like, do you guys even realize that these ads are being shown for games that are meant for kids?!?!?!?
If we want to look at this realistically and judge it based on the anime, then no, it’s not like that. When the creators of the anime said, or when it was written in his biography, that whatever Rashomon touches Akutagawa also feels, it doesn’t mean what fans think or interpret it as. It’s true that Rashomon is biologically and mentally considered a part of Akutagawa’s body, and even if we ignore his coat and clothes, Rashomon is still a part of his existence. But that doesn’t mean their sense of touch is the same. Rashomon is connected more to Akutagawa’s subconscious and mind, not to his body or his sense of touch. And when they say that whatever Rashomon feels Akutagawa also feels, what they mean is that Akutagawa can perceive it, understand it, or evaluate things such as how far Rashomon is from a certain object or person, or how much speed is needed for an attack or to destroy that object or person. So overall, it’s not that everything Rashomon touches or feels is necessarily physically felt by Akutagawa. That idea is completely stupid and illogical. If that were the case, Akutagawa would have to feel a lot of pain during his fights, but that’s not what happens. That’s because Rashomon isn’t connected to or the same as his body or sense of touch; it’s only connected to his subconscious. And if you pay attention throughout the anime, when Akutagawa wants to control Rashomon or give it commands, he doesn’t control it with his hands or body movements. Most of the time he just keeps his hands in his pockets and controls it through his mind
Okay, I don't want to judge someone based on a single video, especially when I don't know this person at all😭 but there are two types of people who seriously annoy me.
The first type is people who ship literally EVERYTHING. Cats? Shipped. Two characters who looked at each other for three seconds? Shipped. A fucking volcano? Probably shipped too. At this point, I'm just waiting for someone to ship me with my water bottle or my bedroom window.
And what annoys me even more is when they insist on shipping people who very obviously just have a normal friendship. Two people can joke around, tease each other, spend a lot of time together and have a really close friendship without being romantically interested in each other.
But apparently that's impossible to some people.
They see two friends being affectionate or comfortable around each other and immediately go, "They're in love with each other."
The second type, however, is the one that annoys me the most.
These are the people who desperately insist that two people who are obviously romantically involved, or at the very least clearly have feelings for each other, are "just best friends."
And for some reason, this seems to happen especially when those two people are the same gender.
Again, I don't want to judge someone based on one video. I don't know this YouTuber, and I obviously don't know what's going on inside their head.
But the way this person was practically fighting for their life in the video, repeatedly insisting that these two people were "JUST BEST FRIENDS" every few seconds, genuinely made me wonder if there was some kind of homophobia behind it.
Because seriously, if two people are clearly in love with each other, or at the very least have obvious romantic feelings for each other, why are you working THIS hard to convince everyone that they're only friends?
Like... okay?
And then what?
What do you gain from proving that these two people are "just friends"?
Just let people interpret things however they want. Let people ship fictional characters. Let people have fun. Why does it bother you so much?
And honestly, there are two other types of people who annoy me for basically the opposite reason.
The first is people who ship two characters, actors, or literally any two human beings just because one of them said "hello" to the other.
"OMG THEY LOOKED AT EACH OTHER. THEY'RE SO IN LOVE."
Please calm down😭
And the second is people who get genuinely angry whenever other people ship something they don't like.
Like... why?
You don't have to ship it. You don't have to like it. You don't even have to understand it.
Just let people have their ships and move on😑
At the end of the day, I think both extremes are equally exhausting.
Some people see romance absolutely everywhere, while others seem determined to erase romance even when it's practically staring them in the face.
Can we just let people interpret fictional relationships however they want and have fun?
