YATAGARASU: KARASU WA ARUJI WO ERABANAI (2024)

#04. an imperial council ⋆ 御前会議

[seekers-who-are-lovers]

Starting from right, Sumio, Ichiryuu, Yukiya, who’s all grown up, and his schoolmates Shigemaru, Akeru (Masuho no Susuki’s youngest brother) and Chihaya from the Keisoin Academy from The Empty Coffin, Book 4 of the series. Illustrated by Matsuzaki Natsumi. (From the fan book)

Can’t imagine Yukiya has become taller than Sumio. Muscular too. And I assume, he looks more like his late mum.

― Poor Sumio...

[ren-rambles-often]

I just finished The Raven Does not Choose it's Master Episode 4 and literally why is it the best episode in an already pretty solid show?!?!!

Who else is scared it's getting so good now but it'll become a train wreck later?!?! I can't be the only one right?!?

First highlight definitely has to go to crown prince Kin'u (I could search up is name but ignorance is bliss) showing up to the Council and serving absolute disrespect.

Natsuka from one eldest sibling to another, personally I wouldn't take that shit. And you can argue that 'oh but later he sent assassins after him so he' LISTEN the thing is, no assassin beats a good old fashioned smack across the face, sibling on sibling violence is key, trust me (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

Next is definitely daddy Sumio showing up to as always be the Best and Best-looking character in the entire fucking show.

He could rip out my heart but with those eyes and that undercut I'd be thanking him (｡♡‿♡｡) need more of him like I need fucking oxygen. All I can hope is that if anyone starts making fanart, they don't take away his sexy tan.

Absolutely burst out laughing when Yukiya did the obligatory 'y/n faint' after witnessing his master get attacked, he's the most precious boy, I love him, I love him so much, new fave shota next to Ciel (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤

And finally, the literal best part...

Y'all....he had to stand on his toes (●♡∀♡) like....not only do they have amazing chemistry but the height difference?!?!! I'm shaking, I love them, I love them so much. Crown Prince has the patience of a saint cuz if that was me that brat would be getting some punishment, iykyk ◉‿◉

All in all absolutely the best episode, mostly towards the end when Yukiya accepts to be the prince's aide. "I want you as my right hand man" lying ass, just say you want to keep him around to get on his cute little nerves.

My third favorite scene of this episode hands down ( ◜‿◝ )♡

Hope my drivel was some what appreciated, I know there's a novel/manga I should probably read but I genuinely enjoy being surprised by this show every weekend. This and Black Butler are literally keeping me in the world. Would definitely love to meet more peeps who love the show. No spoilers in the comments tho I beg of you and bye (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

I love how happy they look after Yukiya agreed!

Now that I read book 4, The Empty Coffin (I skipped book 3 to better enjoy the anime), I have a better understanding of this picture.

(From left to right): Chihaya (a commoner), Akeru (Masuho no Susuki's younger brother), Shigemaru (a commoner), Yukiya, Ichiryuu, Sumio.

The book left me with a strange feeling, like it couldn't carry on a full anime season on its own. It's more like a prelude to something else. I read it because I doubt that we will ever see it animated, but I won't give up my hopes so soon.

#03. a true golden raven ⋆ 真の金烏

[seekers-who-are-lovers]

A sulky Wakamiya is a passive aggressive Wakamiya (stonewalling).

Wakamiya in his mind: Everyone is having an adventure except me. What a friend you are, Sumio, when you don’t do what I say.

Sumio: I know what you are up to when you’re in this mood. And it isn’t good at all.
