something i really love abt tshd is how queerness is so intrinsic to the plot without it being the main focus, it’s pretty common in anime/manga where if there are canon queer characters, the word gay or actual queer struggles are never mentioned. but in tshd, yoshiki is very clearly repressed and closeted living in a rural, homophobic town in japan. it’s *suffocating* him, the only person he really had was hikaru but now he’s “gone” but still not quite gone, leaving him tethered back to this town. it’s obviously a super common sentiment among queer people who live in rural areas to want to escape into city.

and i know everyone laughs at this panel for the iconic ell jee bee tea thing. but in context it’s one of the most heartbreaking and relatable scenes in the whole manga imo. the people of this town aren’t just homophobic, but they’re trying to erase the mere existence of gay people as a whole by covering it up. its pretty obvious that yoshiki is depressed, and it’s easy on the surface to think its solely because he literally has a monster possessing his dead childhood friend/crush’s corpse. but its pretty clear that it only strengthened what was already there. (lowkey his themes are very reminiscent of owen in ‘i saw the tv glow’)

it’s hilarious seeing people say “why did they have to make it gay” ever since the anime trailer came out bc truthfully this story would not work nearly as well as it does if it wasn’t just some random ass straight couple. i really hope anime watchers look deeper into the narrative instead of just saying “omg its uwu toxic yaoi” or “it’s a horror anime with forced woke gay ppl in it”

Wow ok so we all like krusie now huh 🙄 what happened to why cant they just be friends! 🙄 im not mad just 🙄 where were yall when the opps were after me in 2021 🙄

So silly that theres a huge contrast between how many krusiers and krisellers are looking at my posts. Like you only really have to at least like krusies vibes to enjoy my posts. Meanwhile with my kriselle posts you need to understand how no one is exempt from repeating abuse, and the fact that they're both trapped under the players control, and the fact that it isn't Kris' fault, and remember that Kris is non binary, and have basic reading comprehension, and respect others opinions, and remember that utdr was ALWAYS this dark and its weird how a fandom who likes talking about literal genocide screams and cries whenever sexual trauma is even mentioned, and watch revolutionary utena, and read chainsaw man and—

so, uh. doing anything after this?

[electrafart]

theyre in the wrong outfits for this scene but regardless kris's one sided crush is cute

[electrafart]

i think the players in american football should take off all that gear so they can touch the skin of another man. the helmet doesn't make it less gay it just makes it less fun for the audience in the cuck stands

TRYING TO NOT THINK ABOUT THEM. ITS VERY DIFFICULT NOT TO.

kris’ crush on susie being confirmed so obviously this early was not what i expected but i love how bluntly chapter four draws the lines of “prophesied and set in stone” vs “bullshit these kids get up to”… its so nice to see what kris wants outside of just escaping our control 😢

they have a unique love
