(pounding my desk) them them thEM THEMā
My package had no status updates for 10 days, and I was starting to worry, but it randomly showed up today! I love love love Iori and Mikuniās badges so much

I have no dedicated spot for the badges so theyāre just lining multiple shelves lol

I HAVE BEEN SO EXCITED FOR THESE PICS. That Mikuni Tsurugi pic means the world to me. I want so badly to use them as bookmarks, but I donāt want them to get ruined either ;u;

HMMMMMNGHGGNMGH ⨠THEM āØ

Itās truly awful when books include posters that have printed one continuous image on both sides of the poster⦠so you have to choose which 50% of the poster you want facing outwards if you want to hang it up š like why

I love this picture so much lmao, like ah yes ā blond, perfect, and Jeje. The goal. The whole package.
#that badge case is so freaking cute#I donāt want the badges in it though so Iāll probably just set it up and stare at it#thatās one of the best Mikuni and Misono pics sheās ever drawn

Actually feeling really emotional about strikeās response to a fan asking what the rest of the alicein family think of mikado bc itās so so realistic and heartbreaking, actually
They canāt approve of his actions and they know heās made a bunch of mistakes but they still love him and their love is at war with their sense of right and wrong because heās not just a distant figure who Fucked Up to them, heās their family
They know better than anyone just how much of a hard worker he is and they know better than anyone that for all his faults he loves his family and they know better than anyone how he has never forgiven himself, even a little bit, butā¦
Itās difficult. Because they love him. They want him to do the right thing. Itās difficult. Theyāre disappointed in him. Because they love him.
Heās a deeply flawed man whose insecurities were so deep he even came to fear his eldest child because he felt like all of his flaws were on display and what good is he if heās not the perfect figure at the head he needs to be? Whatās the point if heās not able to project the illusion of being worthy?
But despite those flaws, heās also a man whose strength lies in him having a lot of love to give. To his family. To the children. To his employees who he sees as family.
I think it really enhances the gothic tragedy of the Alicein, torn apart by secrets and lies and envy and lust but⦠Also love.
Because it wouldnāt hurt so bad if the love wasnāt there.

Servamp's Pandoras: Kiriko and Akira
So the choice to make Saint Germain's headless monstrous form "Pandora" comes with a lot of baggage from ancient myths. I discussed this focusing on Tetsu's association with Prometheus in this post here, but Pandora herself deserves more attention.
There are many characters who could be associated with Pandora in the context of Servamp, but the most interesting to consider are Kiriko and Akira.
The legend of Pandora was that the Greek gods sent the first woman down to Earth to punish and tempt mankind, and Pandora dropped a jar (mistranslated as a box) that unleashed evils into the world. Only Elpis, Hope, remained in the jar.
Kiriko unleashed the vampire war onto Tokyo by stealing the Alicein family head's key and releasing Tsubaki, dispersing evil into the world. Pandora's myth later often became intertwined with the biblical tale of Adam and Eve. Eve was tempted into consuming food from a forbidden tree in the Garden of Eden by a snake. Kiriko was tempted by the power of Envy whose form is a snake in a manor associated with a garden (Alice in the Garden). Both were punished after obtaining power, Eve with painful childbirth and Kiriko with the madness that eventually consumes all of Jeje's eves. The children she raised, Mikuni and Misono, are associated with the children of Eve, Cain and Abel.
The child of Pandora, Pyrrha, is associated with the Ancient Greek version of the flood myth. What was Mikuni's Re-Servamp other than a biblical flood destroying everything that existed because the world was too sinful in his eyes? Mikuni clearly saw this parallel as he named the Ninth Servamp Noah, the chosen survivor of the biblical flood myth. Even Mikuni's vaguely incestuous wish to recreate his brother by marrying his father's mistress has its roots in the explicit incest from the flood myth in Genesis.
Akira unleashed evil on the world through the study of forbidden magic and by tempting Touma with a path to infamy. (As it's highly implied that the study of revival/immortality magic is what gave him the idea to try to use Saint Germain's revival to intentionally cause a disaster). One of the Greek gods who sent Pandora was Zeus, the Greek god of Thunder. Akira's brother, Tooru is full of thunder and lightning imagery and is directly given a C3 role named Thor, another mythological deity associated with thunder. After Pandora dispersed evil on the world, hope still remained. Mahiru's attack that he uses to come to understand the hearts of his enemies is Elpis. Mahiru himself is the hope left from Akira's Pandora's Box.
#seeing things like this makes me wish we got to see more interactions between Akira and the others when she was still alive#servamp

[On Iori and Shirayuki]
Finding out just how physically weak and slow Iori is ā especially compared to the rest of his family ā is interesting for me.
Shirayukiās full profile paints a more complete picture of who she is. She was the president of C3ās Tokyo branch, enjoys watching professional wrestling as a hobby, dreams of getting another chance to battle Gear (lol), practices radio workouts daily, and values being seen as āstrong.ā Her weakest subject in school was home economics. She has a clear affinity for fighting (further proven by Miyakoās quote in the final chapter, referring to Shirayuki as the Tokyo branchās number one battle-crazed Mom.)
When we first learned that Shirayuki was responsible for trying to keep Iori away from the combat team, it wasnāt exactly a strange concept. Sheās his mother, and regardless of his talents with barrier magic, it makes sense that she would be concerned about him getting hurt. Sheās also well acquainted with that world, and likely understands first-hand how easy it is to be killed in that job.
But after seeing the Tsukimitsu familyās profiles in the guidebook, I canāt help but wonder if Shirayukiās concern for Iori wasnāt so much about āa motherās love for her son,ā but rather, being specifically concerned that Iori wasnāt built for fighting.
(Which is not to say she doesnāt love Iori. She does! She even has a high-scoring āfamily loveā parameter on her chart!)
For a clearer picture, here are some stat scores listed on their profiles:
(Physical strength/speed/mental)
Iori: 3/4/7
Miyako: 8/8/8
Yumi: 5/7/6
Shirayuki: 5/3/9
(Ioriās lack of physical strength is double confirmed on one of the alignment graphs included in the Q&A section, where heās a lot closer to the āphysically weakā side of the chart.
Also, to help put things into perspective a bit more ā Mikado is noted to be physically ungifted, and his physical strength score is a 2. Iori is almost as physically untalented as Mikado lol.)
Iori is slightly faster than his mother, and has slightly better mental prowess than his younger brother ā but thatās pretty much it. His listed top skills involve him being good at cooperative efforts/listening to othersā opinions and taking them into consideration. And, of course, his barrier magic.
When it comes to the other two -- Yumikage is on the combat team, but Shirayuki doesnāt give him a hard time about it (at least, not that weāve been shown.) Same goes for Miyako. She was in the kendo club in school, has a very high score for physical strength, and has shown her skills in the actual story, like in the battle against Tsubaki by the hospital. In general, it feels like Shirayuki isnāt nearly as strict with them about avoiding combat. (Still strict, for sure ā just not as much as with Iori.)
Shirayuki clearly still worries about her younger kids, but if their trait scores are anything to go by, it would stand within reason to consider ā maybe she trusts Miyako and Yumikage can defend themselves in battle, but she has doubts about whether Iori can do the same.
The guidebook had a Q&A that explained how even though Iori is powerful, his magic is geared more towards defense, and he needs to be paired with a strong partner in order to be a real threat. When it comes to Ioriās choice in friends/partners, I imagine Shirayuki wasnāt too keen on the idea of his safety being in Toumaās hands, and expecting Tooru to protect Iori by himself would be unreasonable.
The fact that Iori joined the combat team at 17, and then was forced into the presidentās role less than a year later, really speaks volumes about how desperate Shirayuki was to keep Iori away from fighting.
I also canāt help feeling Ioriās obsession with joining the combat team was less about the fighting, and more about knowing both Touma and Tooru were going to be on the combat team. He didnāt want to get left behind by his friendsā¦
(FWIW: This analysis is based on the assumption Ioriās skill chart pertains to his pre-injury stats. If the stats listed on his profile are only relevant after he ended up gravely injured⦠well, then none of this is relevant! Lol)
#it's extra sad that Iori likely only cared about getting to stay on a team with his friends#and then when shirayuki made him company president it only further fueled Touma's hatred for him lol#iori can't catch a break#this is not at ALL important#but this is the kind of crap i think about so ya know#my stuff#servamp

Not me crying over the Q&A section of the guidebookā the stuff below is absolutely not everything, just the parts I enjoyed the most.
-Oh my god, there is an alignment chart for a bunch of the characters showing āPopular VS Unpopular, Receives lots of valentines VS Doesnāt receive many valentinesā. Iori and MIkuni are the two most popular characters (with Lily in close third) but Mikuni is slightly more popular than Iori. Iori, however, receives more valentine gifts than Mikuni (but they are both extremely popular. Thatās that trust fund money at work, baby.) Touma is very popular, but doesnāt seem to get many valentines lol
Other alignment charts:
-Housework skills and frequency of chores performed (Mahiru wins at this chart obviously lol. Yumi is second place after Mahiru.) Iori is apparently awful at house work and doesnāt do it often, Iām assuming he has a cleaning person. Touma is amazing at house work, but doesnāt do it much. Tsurugi does tons of house work⦠but is apparently terrible at it lmao.
-Muscle capability/strength and weight. Hugh and Misono are the lightest and āsoftestā fighters lol, while Tsurugi is very light but incredibly muscular/strong. Ildio is the heaviest/strongest fighter. Iori is fairly ālightā and not very strong, and Touma is stronger/heavier than him by a fair bit. Iāve always wondered about that, so Iām happy to have this chart.
-A chart showing āhigh energy when drunkā versus āfalls asleepā and also alcohol tolerance level lmao. So Nico is the one who gets the most smashed when drunk, but his alcohol tolerance is very high. Touma comes in second place, with Gear and Otogiri in third/fourth. Yumi has the lowest tolerance, but gets incredibly energetic when drunk. Mikuni has high tolerance, but gets really sleepy when heās drunk. Iori has poor alcohol tolerance levels, but he gets sleepy when heās drunk instead of wired. And I love that for him⦠I love that for myself š
Thatās all for alignment charts!
-Tanaka confirms Iori receives the most valentines gifts, but pretty much all of them are obligatory. That makes me sad ;u;
-Iori plays the violin. Which is not shocking in any way, but itās nice to have confirmation c:
-Mikuni and Tsurugi apparently have the most horrendous handwriting skills out of everyone by a long shot lol
-Mahiru dreamed of becoming a teacher when he first entered high school ;u;
-Mahiru was 7 years old when his mom died.
-Iori was the one Tooru was talking to on the phone when he and Mahiru met Tsubaki at the sushi restaurant. He was also the one on the phone with Tooru when he was bragging about Mahiru during that one flashback. Which isnāt really relevant to anything except I love how Tooru openly discussed Mahiru with Iori and Iori was just like, ah yes⦠Toumaās son⦠I mean, Tooruās adorable nephew.
-Tanaka confirms Misono continues to grow taller as he becomes an adult lmao
-Misono was 9 when he made his contract with Lily.
-Tanaka talks about how Mikado loves Mikuni, but it doesnāt always seem that way because he was also afraid of how smart Mikuni is
-Mikado knew Mikuni had gone to C3 after running away, and specifically asked them to protect him. Mikuni was in C3 for about three years.
-Tsurugi was affected by āMy Fair Ladyā because even though he had only killed vampires up to that point, he carried the guilt of having killed someone. Mikuni looked shocked when Tsurugi began to choke because he didnāt think Tsurugi had actually killed anyone until then.
-Mikuni left C3 just before he turned 20, and opened his shop a year later.
-Mikuni and Tsurugi specifically donāt like being addressed by their family names, because⦠well, you can imagine lol. So they prefer to be called by their first names.
-Mikuni opened a shop because he wanted a place to store all of the magic items he had collected over his travels. He also wanted to put up a false smile in front of C3 to put them at ease about what he was getting up to.
-Mikuni was seven when he proposed to Hokaze š
-Mikuni loved Misono a lot and would stop to play with him whenever he wanted š š STOP
-Oh my god, Mikuni would force Jeje to perform difficult jobs in order for them to get enough money to travel abroad, where they would then sell magic items to other magicians around the world. Heās such a prick, I love him so much.
-Apparently, Johan showed up one day in Mikuniās shop and just started doing whatever he wanted and thatās how they met. Lmaooo.
-Jeje receives blood from Mikuni sometimes, but only after Mikuni himself has put it into a container.
-Tetsuās other sister is a shogi player and her name is Kaoru (Oh, sure, SHE gets a name š¤ )
-Apparently Licht introduced Lawless to his parents as āthe demon I purifiedā and his parents are just happy heās found a friend ;u;
-Freya feels she gets along best with Lawless. Lawless apparently disagrees.
-Tanaka gives a scale of āmental degradation due to magic abuseā stages.
Stage 1: You can hear people but canāt make out what theyāre saying.
Stage 2: You start to hallucinate faceless people.
Stage 3: More hallucinations and memory confusion.
Stage 4: Retirement
She also notes that during stages 1-3, a magician can recover over time if they donāt use their magic. Iām assuming stage 4 this isnāt possible, and Iām pretty sure thatās what stage Iori is at now, since he even mentions retiring in the final chapter. But thatās not explicitly stated.
-Tsurugiās mom hid the fact she had a child. She left Tsurugi behind after she found another man and ran off with him.
-MIKUNI, APPARENTLY, DOES NOT PROTEST THE SIGHT OF TSURUGI. He is fine with how Tsurugi looks. Itās only when Tsurugi is speaking that Mikuni wants to fling himself into the dark void.
-Someone asked how Akira and Touma got close, but Tanaka only says to leave it up to everyoneās imagination
-Confirmation that Touma had feelings for Akira, and wasnāt the kind of person who would date someone for the sole purpose of hurting someone else (like Tooru.)
-Toumaās scarf is a magic item that makes his invisibility magic stronger apparently
-Touma was angry that Iori saved his life and he owed a debt to someone he deemed the worst type of person. But while he was crashing at Ioriās apartment, he was free to use anything he wanted apparently. Donāt know if thatās info I needed, but Iām happy to have it now.
-When Gear and Touma were staring at each other in that one popularity poll page, Touma was apparently thinking āSo this is the werewolf Tsurugi is related toā¦ā While Gear is thinking, āSo this is Tsurugiās brother⦠that makes him my grandson, too.ā PLEASE. GEAR, TRY CALLING TOUMA YOUR GRANDSON. I would die to see that played out lmao.
-Confirmation that when Touma said, āIāll drag him down!ā In that one flashback, he WAS talking about Iori. I knew he was, but itās nice to have the cold hard proof lol.
-Touma took on Tsurugiās debts, and Tsurugi pays him back.
-Touma became the vice president at 33. At 33?!?! Holy frick I didnāt realize his promotion from the combat team happened so recently compared to the series timeline. Thatās wild. Iori took fifteen years to convince his mother Touma was right for the position (/jk on that last sentence)
-Yumi quit the archery team in high school because he felt he was following the path forced on him by his parents and older brother.
-Miyako and Kei met during a flight. Miyako was really worn down, and Keiās kindness touched her heart and she quickly fell in love, so from that moment on, she pursued Kei with a lot of passion. I canāt believe we actually got an answer to that question š
-Miyako knew about Ioriās real plan the entire time. Which was pretty obvious, but confirmation is still nice.
-All of the Tsukimitsu kids cross dress when theyāre drunk š š But Iori is careful not to get blackout drunk in front of other people. Bless you for this little nugget of sustainment.
-A C3 agent who moved overseas couldnāt take their hamsters with them, which was how Iori ended up with them, and he just decided to keep them.
-Iori suspected Mikuni could be working alongside Tsubaki when he met him in the control room, but he didnāt know for sure yet.
-Shirayuki met her husband through an arranged marriage and he joined her family. He left C3 early on so he could better support Shirayukiās schedule. So that pretty much confirms he was a househusband, yes? I think so š (BUT HE WASNāT GIVEN A NAME, AAAAAAAAAā)
-Mikuni didnāt go to college. Shuhei did, and Touma went to college with Iori and Tooru. I love knowing that. I am so happy to know that ;u;
-Iori met Tooru in their third year of elementary school and they became friends after Tooru spoke to him. Tooru would try to talk to Touma in middle school, but Touma ignored him. Iori used to avoid Touma because he knew about Toumaās home life, but after seeing how much Tooru wanted to be friends with him and how hostile Touma was to them, he started becoming interested in him. (Bless Iori for being brave enough to admit his crush started when Touma was the first person to tell him to fuck off.)
-The three of them became friends because Touma was already on the combat team at 15, and when they joined C3 at 17, they wanted to get on the combat team as well. So they all ended up connecting in that manner.
-Working at C3 while a student was easy thanks to flexible scheduling, so the three of them were able to work at C3 and attend university at the same time.
-Iori and Tooru would compete in cross dressing competitions in high school, just like Yumi and Tsurugi š bless
-They donāt typically drink so much that they get drunk. They know the party is over once Iori starts getting sleepy ;u; because he has low tolerance⦠adorable.
-Tooru likes simple soy sauce ramen, Touma likes tonkotsu, and Iori likes shio ramen.
-Iori, Miyako, and Yumi are all really good at singing ;w; Thank you, thatās good to know.
-In addition to Gear and Yotarou completing odd jobs, Yotarou has an online store where he sells magic clothes and items that he makes.
-Gear rescued a woman (one of Tsurugiās ancestors) he had become friends with by using his powers to help heal her/bring her back to life. He was afraid what people would do to her/them if they found out about it, so he ran off before the woman woke up and found out what had happened. It sounds possible she had no idea she had been given werewolf genes in order to survive.
#i canāt even begin to describe how much i love this guidebook#this is the best day EVER#servamp#my stuff

Guidebook spoilers? Idk, Iām gonna treat it as spoilers for now lmao (Okay, Iām done editing this post. There is still a LOT of material I havenāt even touched yet, but Iāll make a new post if I need to scream about it later. I gotta take a break now lol)
MIKUNI RESPECTS/ADMIRES HIS GRANDFATHER
I KNEW IT
I LOVE YOU MIKUNIIIIII
EDIT1: He dreams of giving a best man speech at Shuheiās wedding, god I love him I LOVE HIM
EDIT2: Damn, looking at Mikuniās parameters, he really took a hit after getting the finger wagged at him⦠how on earth did he lose two mental points? LOL I guess working with Tsurugi will do that to ya
EDIT3: Oh my god Mikado has a birthday finally OH AND AN AGE CONFIRMATION (heās 51, then post-time skip heās 52)
EDIT4: Mikado and Mikuni both respecting Mikage is really cuteā¦
EDIT5: Oh no, not Kirikoās birthday being so close to Misonoās birthday ;u; Oh no my heart
EDIT6: OH NO NOT KIRIKOāS DREAM BEING āTo cry at my sonās weddingā NO PLEASE STOPā
EDIT7: WHy⦠WHY⦠WHY would you confirm that Tsurugiās phonecall at the end of the series is not a call with Mahiru, but refuse to say who it really was?! WHYYYY
EDIT8: LMAOOOO Toumaās favorite animal being āanything but hamstersā
Thereās an interesting tidbit in here about Touma, Yoshimasa, and Shuhei. During the battle with Tsubaki when Touma was 19, Touma was gravely injured, and as a result, he used his invisibility technique to try and hide all of them from Tsubakiās sight. He encouraged Yoshimasa to retreat, insisting they could lose one agent if it meant keeping others alive. When Shamrock killed Yoshimasa in retaliation, Touma felt responsible for his death because of his decision to retreat, and thatās part of why he ended up promoting Shuhei to his third in command.
I know that Touma has emotions, but we honestly didnāt get to see them show through a whole lot, they were mostly implied here and there. I would love to see Touma, Iori and Tooruās early days, honestlyā¦
EDIT9: STOP STOP STOP, YUMIKAGE ADMIRES IORI???? IāM GONNA THROW UP Iā
EDIT10: ALL OF THE TSUKIMITSU CHILDREN WERE VOTED āMOST BEAUTIFULā IN HIGH SCHOOL. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for that useless but completely life changing fact.
EDIT11: Junichiro was on the combat team with Tooru for a time, and apparently was really fond of him. Thatās so adorable š
EDIT12: Oh god, Tooruās āthing Iād like to try one dayā answer is āIād like to learn how my sister and Touma metā BRO. NO. There are some doors you just keep shut forever.
EDIT13: Akira was 33 at the time of her death, fwiw
EDIT14: Guys, help me, I just got to Ioriās profile⦠wish me luck
EDIT15: IORI CONFIRMED TO HAVE BEEN MARRIED AT 31 THROUGH AN ARRANGED MARRIAGE. They divorced within a year. Iori says he discovered the only thing in life he has no talent for is being a family man. YāALL IāM Iām just fucking dead. Iām gone. Deceased.
EDIT16: Iori dreams of one day living on a deserted island (but specifically notes he only wants to try it for a little while)⦠I love him. I love him I love him I LOVE HIMā
EDIT17: Iori being confirmed as not very physically strong means everything to me
EDIT18: Iori refers to Miyako as his little brother (sister) in his family list, which I think is cute. He also lists his hamsters as family, which is just freaking adorable. I love him so much.
EDIT19: Ioriās favorite hobby is ācoming up with nicknames for people in my head.ā I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.
EDIT20: He buys a lot of oden at the grocery store⦠his daily routine is āhamster careā⦠his favorite place in the world is the balcony of his apartment⦠I love him so much š
EDIT21: MIYAKO!!
āWho do you respect/admire?ā
Miyako: My big brother (sort of)
NO, PLEASE, thatās exactly what I thought she would say to something like that Iām sobbing
She is the chief C3 manager of the information network.
She was in the kendo club in high school! Also, she apparently outpaces Iori in a lot of ways omg.
Strength: 8/10
Tactics: 7/10
Mental: 8/10
Speed: 8/10
(And Beauty ofc was 10/10 lol)
Meanwhile, her cooperative score was lower than Ioriās, hers was only 4/10 (Iori was 6/10)
Miyako dreams of one day getting to discuss beauty and makeup amongst three generations of mothers and daughters⦠she wants to have a child to talk beauty with š Iām not crying, YOUāRE crying
Miyako got to wear a wedding dress, and Kei got to wear a tux on their wedding day, and they were both very happy about it. Oh my god I just⦠this guidebook has given me purpose in life again.
Also, Miyakoās most purchased convenience store item being āenergy drinksā lmao
It also sounds like Miyako, like Yumi, rides motorcycles. I love them so much.
EDIT22: Shirayuki is 62 (63 post-finale.) That means she had Iori when she was about 26, Miyako when she was about 28, and Yumi when she was about 36. Which isnāt relevant to anything unless youāre like me and you write about their family nonstop and all of this info is so freaking invaluable, you have no idea.
-When Gear came to Tokyo 40 years earlier to look for Kuro, Shirayuki ended up battling Gear during one of his rampages. After their battle, the two apparently ended up respecting one another. Her dream is to get to battle Gear again someday lmao
-Her worst subject is home economics, and it says her favorite food is āozoni cooked by [her husband.]ā Coupled with a few other answers, Iām going to say itās likely her husband was the one taking care of the home and the kids when they were younger, which I always had as my headcanon and I love that for them. Shirayuki has a āfamily loveā skill of 8/10, but also sheās apparently obsessed with battling, and she was probably very busy as the C3 president of the Tokyo branch, so she probably didnāt get to see the kids as much until they were able to go to work with her. At least, thatās my own little brainchild thought~
-No sign of Tsukimitsu dadās name yet. Thatās frustrating lmao.
-Also, I just want to point out that even Shirayuki is stronger physically than Iori. Lol.
-SHIRAYUKIāS FAVORITE CONVENIENCE STORE ITEM TO BUY IS CUP RAMEN, BUT SHE ONLY DOES IT IN SECRET. Is it because she doesnāt want her kids to see her eating bad foods after she spent all day telling them to be healthy? Or is it specifically because Iori canāt have ramen while heās recovering, and she doesnāt want to rub it in his face? Either way, I think itās hilarious that she has a lot of the personality traits she specifically tries to steer the children away from fjfjflkdsl
-I like how her favorite hobby is to watch wrestling. Also, her favorite quote being āsurvival of the fittestā is so funny to me. She enjoys being viewed as āstrongā too.
EDIT23: Sigurd is 41 (42 post-finale.) I envisioned him being around that age ā just slightly older than Iori ā so I like that.
-Sigurdās favorite hobby is golf. I donāt know why I find that so funny, but I do. I thought for sure shooting would be his hobby, but it was listed under favorite subjects instead.
-HE HAS A WIFE??? And a sister apparently⦠BUT A WIFE? Someone can actually stand being around him, but not Iori? Lmfao
-But itās really cute how his favorite day-off activity is to go jogging with their dog⦠adorable.
-Gear threatened to kick the crap out of Sigurd for using Tsurugi as a pawn, but Sigurd apparently bought his way out of trouble by gifting Gear and Yotarou tons of sweets and tea lol
EDIT24: Gear confirmed to be over 1000 years old, but apparently itās unclear his exact age. He lists his family as āYotarou, plus all the other grandchildren (self-proclaimed)ā lol. Omg and he dreams of writing a bestselling novel, so cute.
-Yotarou made Abel, and it was confiscated by C3 at some point, which is how she then made her way into Mikadoās hands. I canāt remember if that was ever explicitly stated, even though thatās kind of what we figured.
-Oh my god⦠Gear worried about Yotarou being around him, so one day, he just returned to London without saying anything. Yotarou was devastated, and once he was old enough, he used his knowledge of Gear to track him to London and just showed up on his doorstep, and thatās when they began living together. Oh my god thatās so cute???
-There is a whole section dedicated to profiles for the characters (or at least a handful of characters) during Mikuniās mirror world universe. Very interesting.
-Tanaka explains that Mahiru learned his āsimpleā thinking from his uncle, but since Tooru learned it from his big sister ā Touma Mahiru was able to learn the āsimplyā mindset from his mother in that universe.
-Okay thereās a lot to unpack about the mirror world, but thereās one note from Tanaka about Mikuni, Touma and Iori that pretty much confirms what we already suspected. Mikuni and Iori are apparently not far apart in terms of logic skills, but Mikuniās slip up was assuming that Touma and Iori shared habits similar to his own. Namely, not being able to rely on others to get results. She specifically says that Mikuni believed Iori couldnāt stop him by himself (which was true,) but he also assumed Iori wouldnāt rely on the others for their assistance. So when Touma and Sigurd helped Iori with his plan, Mikuni wasnāt expecting it.
-LOL HOKAZE IS 38 IN THE MIRROR WORLD. She is about 15 years older than Mikuni. I mean, we already knew she was much older, but I love that for him.
-Oh my god, okay, hereās a note from Tanaka about the mirror world: She says she wanted to have time to depict a scene where Tsurugi/Noah is a mix of the two, but then when Tsurugi sees Touma happy and smiling with his family, he begins to think to himself, āMaybe the world really is better without me in it,ā and thatās when Tsurugi gets suppressed fully by Noah, until the real Touma shows up to pull Tsurugi back. I would have loved to see that, and it would have made Tsurugiās transformation into Noah feel more fluid honestly.
-Nico died at 27, because World End never made a contract with him and wasnāt there to rescue him.
