If i had to choose a group for QUEEN by Kanaria to go to it would be More More Jump.

For these reasons :

1. Give them a big name Song, they deserve it.

2. Shizuku would absolutely EAT THIS UP. Also Shizuairi QUEEN and Ruikasa KING Combo slays well.

3. Its a song that talks about Love, you know which group mostly cover song abt Love? MOWA MOWA JU-

4. "B-But it's angsty- Niigo is-" They can cover angsty love songs. Proof where they slayed : Karakuri Pierrot, Kiss the Villain, and many others.

5. Doesn't fit EmuNene tbh, you just want EmuNene to match RuiKasa KING.

6. I noticed a pattern that each group has their own Kanaria cover (with the Cup Noodle collab as an exception) with KING Ruikasa, Envy Baby Niigo and most recently Unaware Drunkard Vbs (which slays btw, Akikoha alt when) and i think that if QUEEN does go to Mmj, it would be a duo cover like KING and i HOPE its ShizuAiri, the lesbians ever.

(Which is also why i dont think KanaMafu will get QUEEN, they already have a Kanaria song, two if you count Identity.)

7. To see the more Toxic Wxs Fans to go on an outrage to see a less popular group getting a cover they want for the more popular group (like what happend a few days ago with the toxic Nightcord fans outraging at Leo/need getting Tokyo Teddy Bear) and honestly, too bad for them.

In conclusion : MMJ deserves love. I love me some 2nd/3rd year Yuri. Shizuku will slay and i better NOT see any wxs fans bashing on mmj.

Also if each group eventually gets a Kanaria song, can each group get their own Kikuo song, pls Sega.

Me and @wistie and @crushmetothedeath core

YES PPL CAN BE CLOSE WITHOUT BEING SEXUAL NOR ROMANTIC.

Can you do something for me, please?

I want you to reblog this if you believe that two people can be very close and physically affectionate with one another, but still have a completely nonsexual, non-romantic relationship. 

Even if the two people in question are capable of being sexually or romantically attracted to one another. 

Because the friendship I share with someone I consider family in a way that transcends blood has been typecast as a romantic relationship ENTIRELY too many times, and I’m beginning to get sick of it.

i come back to this topic like every month i feel like but the longer i sit with it and the more vbs events that come out the more i just do not fucking understand where the "vbs is wlw/mlm hostility!!!!!!!1!11" idea came from and why it's still the most popular interpretation of the group's dynamics. i mean i do understand - it's people accepting fanon as canon before they engage with the canon material and misinterpreting canon on purpose to maintain the fanon. but like

?????? where did things like "akito is sick of how gay an is for kohane" (and vice versa - "an hates seeing akito and toya be gay") come from . because this has no basis. neither of them have ever shown to get irritated over the other's love for their partners...? more often than not they don't even react. an has teased akito very lightly maybe a whole three times. and not in a "ew gross" kinda way. more like "awwww how cute" and then he explodes and dies. and i can only recall One instance of him teasing her... (that veryyyyy early area convo that's like "you know you're always talking about kohane" and then her retort shut him up real quick and he never brought it up again. probably because he learned then and there that it'd be hypocritical 😭) their bonds with their partners are incredibly special and it's not a thing they go poking fun at because it'd be a dick move

idk. vbs can just be friends, yknow. no need to go slapping any "hostility" onto it. they can like each other. an and akito don't have to borderline/not-so-borderline hate each other. hello? it's so dark in here

They destroyed the swings on a playground next to my grandma's home

So what did I, a reasonable and totally sane person, do?

I went on a 40min walk, crossed the road not in a designated spot, all while watching a 14h yt series about When they cry (I'm 8h in) (also I wasn't looking at my phone while crossing roads, I'm not that dumb)

But hey

I can swing now :)

Just drew sth and now i wanna write a Vivid Bad Squad Amalgamation fic featuring Ken while ignoring the dozens of WIP and Plans im supposed to work on.

Would i finish this? Maybe not. Have i thought more about this like how did the Amalgamation occur or how would i continue it? Probably no. But this is too good of an idea to pass.

So i gotta try my best.

[icantwonderhoythepainaway]

Why Ken Shiraishi is Still Written OK (aka why Vivid BAD SQUAD will never surpass RAD WEEKEND, and why that's a good thing)

An essay I wrote in someone's Twitter DMs as we discussed their belief that Ken's writing has been becoming out of character ever since On Your Feet, and my attempt to present a counter-argument that turned into an analysis of VBS stories up to this point.

1,089 words, warnings for swearing, spoilers, and the fact that this is barely formatted like an essay at all but was just a ramble I thought I gave some good points in and wanted to share.

So bro is openly going against the things that made rw what it was ("ok Toya make all the songs" <- that is not what happened with radder)" and I doubt bro would be full on ignoring it (nor clpl full on ignoring it seeing as they have all of the group's full stories planned from the beginning) and I personally theorize that it's to emphasize the four's strengths as well as to make them come face to face with their weaknesses to grow stronger (I think concerto is the most obvious case of this). Nagi's goal with rw wasn't to make something to be surpassed, it was to pass radder's dream to the next generation to reach the heights they couldn't (i.e. worldwide popularity) and I very much feel like the vbs story has enough backing them going in that direction (Toya's wl chapter, what I've seen of radder flashbacks, even Ken's whole reason for opening weekend garage).

For context, the preceding conversation was about how Ken has been going against a lot of his initial things (Running weekend garage to help the next generation, helping them not work as hard, etc), how he knew Taiga was gonna tell vbs the truth of RAD WEEKEND and that he should first but he didn't, and then how he's been overworking the kids and going against the team effort rw was by radder

Again, clpl kinda suck at writing vbs sometimes but dammit they ain't bad at foreshadowing, they teased Nagi stuff for a year or two before lutf and stuff after all. Plus they've never had a sudden decline with a character, it took two years for Mafuyu's mom to fully be revealed as bad, and even with Taiga that was a solid year. (Now what they do do a lot of are sudden "redemption arcs", sure the Otori brothers' was decent but all the times they've tired to have Shinodad or Toya's dad grow as people has been so bad like bro some people are just shit).

Plus vbs' story has been slower than most of the other units until this current arc (hell they took the longest to end their first arc), slow building blocks to surpassing RAD WEEKEND. So for this current arc to have them saying "our next event will surpass them" so suddenly just doesn't add up. It has to be a red herring. And again, Taiga's been this game's only true betrayal arc, others have been characters going from neutral to bad (Mafumom, one-off characters) or ones meant to be bad that eventually become allies to their respective groups (Arata, Iori, Otori brothers). Taiga going from an explicit ally to an enemy is an outlier, and I've noticed that they usually won't repeat plots and stuff in this game (well outside of Smile of a Dreamer and Our Happy Ending but I think that was on purpose).

I highly doubt that vbs' ending will involve them surpassing RAD WEEKEND, they're probably the only group who's initial goal hadn't changed over time (L/n "I wanna be with my friends again" -> "We wanna be pros that touch others with music". WxS "Let's save this stage" -> "let's travel the world to make our dreams come true" n25 "i need to save mafuyu" -> "she's seemingly saved but shits still tucked"). Even MMJ's which has seemed to always be "Let's be idols and give hope to others" has had steps to go through, it wasn't instantly "Let's perform in the dome" it was "Let's be idols" -> "let's do a live show" -> "let's do a solo show" -> "let's perform in the dome". VBS hasn't been like that, it's always been "let's surpass RAD WEEKEND" and never been anything but that, so their progression has just been them saying "this'll get us closer to surpassing RAD WEEKEND" with little to actually show for it.

It's a lofty, impossible task, and I think Ken and Taiga know that, but they view it in different ways. Taiga sees it as "you'll never live up to it give up stop trying" while Ken's is "you'll never live up to it but that doesn't change that you're still talented performers". Even though how characters always compare each other to radder (An and Taiga seeing Nagi in Kohane, Taiga seeing Ken in Akito) , they're not radder, they'll never be them, and I feel like that's what the story wants to have them and the audience eventually realize. That's what Nagi wanted, right? To have the next generation do what she and the rest of radder couldn't, to keep singing and to be known around the world. They've already contrasted how both Taiga and Ken have attempted to keep Nagi's wishes alive before (i.e. the whole "Don't tell An until she's ready" thing), and Ken handled this better than Taiga but both weren't the best at it, and vbs had to find the strength themselves to keep going. Taiga did it in a brutal and dream-crushing way, while Ken's was gentler and more honest but came too late, and I feel that they wouldn't get rid of that contrast with Nagi's other dream. Taiga ran off and became famous overseas, but never fully processed his grief. Ken is encouraging the next generation, but still isn't doing it perfectly.

So I feel that Ken's plan is to show vbs *their* strengths. The ones only they have. Not in the context of reaching radder's level, but in reaching their own, and truly fulfilling Nagi's wish. He's not doing it perfectly, he's overworking them severely, but I highly doubt that this is purposeful. Again, I just don't think they'd make the dilf have a villain arc.

But nothing anyone has done in response to vbs's dream has been perfect. Even from the main story with akitoya and Kotarou sabotaging Kohane, to Arata in sbd, to Taiga to Arata in bfby, and then lutf is obvious. It's a messy tale of unprocessed grief and unfiltered dreams, things that can lead to both triumph and tragedy. But I truly can't see any malice in Ken's actions, or even Taiga's to an extent. While there obviously was some there, to him I assume it was to protect the legacy of his sister and to not tarnish her swansong.

I don't fully know where I was going with this but all in all I think Ken has good intentions albeit with unintentional extreme expectations, VBS was never meant to surpass RAD WEEKEND, and the vbs story's messy pacing lately is purposeful
