it's really interesting to see how people perceive kabru cause there seems to be a bit of a disparity between how he really acts and how he's portrayed in fanart and fan memes and such

with the way people talk about him you'd think he's this huge flirt or actively trying to use his good looks or whatever to get a leg up but he really.... doesn't? at least i can't think of a significant time where he does. is it cause he teases rinsha? or kisses her as a fish? i think those are dubious examples, but also even if you do read them as genuine flirting theyre pretty small and not repeated with any other character.

it reads more like he's just genuinely charming and good with people. he never tries to make a pass with anyone, people just like him cause he's.... likeable. and in universe characters do act aware of how charming he is (see: mickbell, holm, daya), but they never seem to insinuate that he's actually a tease or that he like, gets around. i guess there's a mention of "rumours" here? have most people seen this? is this what they based it off of?

it's also worth noting that in the same comic those exact rumours (whatever they may exactly be) are proven to be unfounded, kabru is just the type of guy people feel like they can open up to. they don't even talk about him like he's doing it on purpose!

if it's cause he MIGHT be half incubus, my friend brings up a good point: it feels like an intentional subversion to not have him be a sexual "siren" in that way. ryoko kui is very intentional with her world and characters, and to have kabru's succubus/incubus-identity up for debate while also having him be not particularly flirtatious seems like the type of irony she would write on purpose.

to me, really, it seems very indicative of how fandom at large views brown men. kabru's in an interesting position cause he seems to get most angles of this type of flanderization. he's seen as both overly sinister and drama-seeking while also being extremely flirtatious and a whore when.... he's kind of neither of those things?

he's not evil or particularly more violent than anyone else, he's just really utilitarian and has this false impression at first where you think he's gonna be some sort of secondary antagonist but he's way too smart for that. he doesn't manipulate people any more than any other character. and he's not really a whore at all he just.... likes reading people? and knowing people? and people like him? idk man.

it's part of this larger issue where brown men in fiction are both demonized and sexualized at the same time. i don't even think it's on purpose, i just think that most people don't even realize this is something they need to unlearn. it's not even cause i don't like shipping kabru! i do! i just don't agree with flanderizing him to do it.

i think kabru is much more than the first impressions of him you might have, or even the first impressions of him the characters in universe may have. and while i don't think someone posting ooc fanart of kabru is directly racist, i think a lot of it upholds the racism people are already accustomed to. it makes me a little sad!

do you know where this panel of kabru in a shirt (?) is from? I looked through the whole manga and couldn't find it nor do i remember him wearing this

At first I thought it might have been from the ending but it's from this post canon extra in the new adventurer's bible.

hi! i started collecting the official english volumes. thistle being translated as a girl is so jarring. was going to start this ask by asking if laios mistaking him for a girl was intentional but figured out elsewhere that thats just yen press's mistake. weird. did yen press get anything else wrong or is thistle the only victim? thanks mr meshi!

Hello!

If I remember right Mickbell is also called a girl at one point, or was it only on EHScans? I think EHScans get's Mithrun's gender wrong but I'm not sure about Yen press

Other than that Yen Press gets a few names wrong including Thistle's (they call him Sissel)

No food ، we are hungry‼️

we haven't eaten for two days Please donate and reblog.You are the hope of my family

No Food , No Medicine , No Hope، Will We Die of Hunger?

We are 26 people, including children and the elderly, living under genocide and siege in Gaza for over 60 days.

No food, no water, no medicine.

We sleep with empty stomachs, and the elderly grow weaker each day. Hunger is killing us slowly.

My niece was injured in a bombing and urgently needs medical treatment and surgery, but we cannot afford anything.

Malnutrition is making her condition worse by the hour.

We live in a tent that doesn’t protect us from the cold or the bombings.

Still, the worst pain we endure is hunger.

I write these words with a breaking heart, begging anyone reading this to help.

Your donation could save a life it could be the difference between life and death.

ancient toh meme i made when s2 was still airing

[dunmeshistash]

haiii mr meshi is there anywhere/a tag where i can find a compilation of the new stuff added to the new adventurers bible?

Not really... I don't really have a tag that differentiates between the old and new adventurer's bible sorry.

There's the post canon tag, most of it it's from the new AB

Wait Apparently I posted all of the extras one time I forgot about it

That one is missing the flamela extra

Other stuff from the new AB is profiles for a few canaries from flamela's squad, a profile for Flamela herself, a proper profile for the winged lion, elf queen was added to the other characters section and every profile got a little line about what they have been up to in the post canon. Also the new monsters that showed up after the old AB and more world building info

Here's some translated canary stuff

Still hoping it comes out in english soon!

sigh. pearlina fancam, okay?
