TPN X ALADDIN

This is a continuation of my post “Rayemma Aladdin AU”

You can check out my rayemma drawings right here ⬇︎⬇︎✨🧡🖤✨⬇︎⬇︎

Today, I’d like to share my choices for the adult characters and other key figures in this story—commenting, adapting their slight similarities, and giving them a specific role. Fair warning: this post might be a bit, well, VERY long, but that’s what an Alternative Universe is about! Being detailed!! Personally, I love diving into the development of such promising characters. I also made a few not-so-polished concept sketches of the chosen characters in their respective roles. This is my way of showing love for them 💖

Let's start!!

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

👑;; Yuugo as the Sultan~

In almost every TPN AU, I really like when Yuugo is portrayed as Emma’s father. Canonically in the manga, their bond feels a bit like a tired father and his rebellious daughter. On the other hand, Jasmine’s father in Aladdin is shown as a gentle, slightly naïve, humorous (VERY HUGGABLE) older man. While that description doesn’t quite fit Yuugo, one thing I’m sure of is this: like the Sultan, Yuugo would absolutely cherish his daughter, watching over her and making her happiness a top priority. Just like Jasmine was the Sultan’s greatest pride—and his weakness—Yuugo could easily be manipulated “for Emma’s own good.” I think that detail would be super interesting to see: a somewhat stubborn sultan, misled in the name of his daughter’s wellbeing.

Now, as a ruler, Yuugo could carry over the more serious aspects of the Sultan’s character as seen in the Live Action version, while still maintaining his essence from the manga. Like, if a war between kingdoms ever broke out and Agrabah got involved, Yuugo would keep his strategic and deceptive mindset—thinking first of his people and, of course, his precious daughter.

Let’s say his wife (maybe Dina) died in a similar conflict. Since then, Yuugo became more rigid, less lenient—but not heartless. Thanks to Emma, he hasn’t hardened completely. She might step in and stop him from taking actions he’d regret, showing the strong Father-Daughter bond they could have in this AU.

As for traditions—like the idea that the princess must marry a prince when she turns 18—I feel like Yuugo would be SUPER protective here. Honestly, it makes me laugh to think he’d be the one rejecting all the visiting suitors, not Emma 😹 Like: “None of them are worthy of my daughter.”

In Aladdin, the Sultan is worried that Jasmine won’t accept marriage, and that disinterest could definitely carry over to Emma too. She wouldn’t care if her dad rejected the suitors—she’d say no anyway 🤭

Although... there might be a tiny exception. If you’re a Norman x Emma fan, you might be interested in what I imagined for them. But their moment isn’t here just yet.

To sum up Yuugo’s role: he’s a man in charge of an entire kingdom, trying to maintain peace while standing firm when necessary—though easily swayed when it comes to his daughter, and a bit stubborn most of the time 😹🖤✨

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

⏳;; Andrew as Jaafar~

Just for this role, I only had two latent options: Peter R. or Andrew. In general, the character of Jaafar seems to me someone very ambitious, contemptuous, greedy, manipulative, selfish, and very blinded by the idea of being more than the Sultan himself. Being only the right hand of the ruler was not enough, and that was evident both in the Live Action and the animated film. One detail here is that in the animated film, Giago (Jaafar's talking parrot) suggests that he be the one to depose the princess, which is a direct path to the throne; this detail is skipped in the Live Action, where they only show a determined Jaafar wanting to take the throne while having the Genie under his control.

Well, why did I choose Andrew and not Peter? Although both would fit perfectly, I leaned more towards Andrew because I thought of something funny: Andrew would definitely betray Ratri, his superior, at some convincing point in the manga's story. How? I have no idea. But I know he would if there was something more at stake that could be beneficial for him.

The idea of shaping Andrew into the Live Action Jaafar with that in mind made me choose him right away. In the manga, Andrew earns the fandom's hatred due to his stoic and cruel nature, a killer who is unaware of human pity despite being human. Jaafar is not exempt from the title of killer; just remember the first thief he let die right at the beginning of the movie, or when he tried to do the same to Aladdin to take the lamp, and let's not forget that time when he was in power and almost let Jasmine drown in the hourglass.

They are very different actions, but they end up describing a frivolous character, showing how far greed for superiority can go.

Andrew, I say again, was perfect for me to have the role of Jaafar. Additionally, I find it fun to relate Yuugo and Andrew this way; we know that in the manga, they were enemies, and that Yuugo, along with Lucas, died trying to kill him. But in this AU, Andrew would be his right hand, his trusted advisor who turned out to be the man who would dethrone him in the worst way.

To wrap up with Andrew, I found those similarities that highlighted him more than my other option: Ratri, and to be honest, I haven't seen another AU that includes him; I wanted to give him visibility with this role :D

Andrew has a villainous character vibe.

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

🧞‍♂️;; Don as The Genie~

The Genie, both in the animated version and in the Live Action, is presented as a very charismatic character, someone talkative who shows selfless or relaxed attitudes despite living 2,000 years in a lamp as a powerful prisoner. The story shows us how the Genie, beyond being the one who makes his holder's wishes come true, becomes Aladdin's voice of conscience. He tries to be on his side but subtly points out his mistakes and the consequences of his blinded decisions, which of course led to Aladdin getting upset with the Genie, and we know what happens next.

From my point of view, Don fits very well in the role of the Genie; both personalities align greatly with him: he can be a great entertainer but can also say words that make you reflect. Ray and Don make a good duo; in this AU, there could be more interaction between them, and that’s something I don't see very often in other AUs.

And yes, Don would give his all on stage singing the iconic song of the Genie. 😌💙✨

The desire to be free I will leave intact; each character present in Aladdin has a specific thought or motive that stands out, and the Genie, someone powerful longing for freedom, is simply beautiful to me. I like to think that Don can express that desire, that illusion of not having to take orders from anyone, but to be as free as the wind itself.

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

💐;; Gilda as Dalia~

I cannot deny or confirm if Dalia is canon in the animated Aladdin movies or in any book of that story, I don't remember the plot of the following animated installments after the first one and I only saw the first one to refresh my mind for this AU. What is undeniable is that Dalia is shown in the Live Action and is a very entertaining character (in my opinion) She is presented as the maid?/right hand/someone trusted by Jazmín, like that friend to whom you tell everything without the discomfort of being judged and who can give you advice or just her company.

Dalia and Jazmín seem very close to me, as if they had grown up together at some point in the past, thinking that Emma and Gilda are perfect for this duo. Gilda has always seemed to me a character faithful to Emma, as a servant would be to her master, both in the anime and in the manga Gilda showed dedicated, worried attitudes, she was even bold in confronting an adult for Emma's life. She for me would be a good companion for Princess Emma.

Although a great focus on Dalia with Jazmín was not shown, the moments they would share would be relevant and special. Those scenarios adapted to Emma and Gilda are tender in my head.

I can even imagine them talking after Ray and Emma's first flight on the magic carpet:

-

Gilda: princes from all over are coming to propose to you with riches to burst and you like the one who brought you jams? 🤨

Emma: He's cute. . . 👉🏻👈🏻

-

And of course following what the Live Action shows, Don and Gilda would also fall in love 😋✨ (bro Donilda is a good shipp tbh)

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

🦋;; Isabella as Cassim~

That prompt: Isabella abandoning Ray haunts Isabella in every AU I think of, I just don't know how to stop it 😭-

What I remember about Aladdin's family is that his mother died when he was a child and his father abandoned him. In Ray's case, it would be the other way around: I decided his father would be Leslie, who dies leaving Ray as a child, and his mother Isabella is the one who abandons him.

I barely remember Cassim's reasons for leaving Aladdin, but despite that and his criminal life, he wanted to get his family back.

Since I love the concept of reconciliation between Ray and Isabella, the role of Cassim suits her well.

I like the idea of creating a scenario where Ray asks her all his questions about his abandonment, and Isabella answers each one of them without evasions, that she is sincere, that she recognizes her mistake and the value of having a son like Ray, having typical conversations like forming a family (contradictorily, Isa wouldn't be the most suitable to talk about it, but she would try, that's what counts 😹).

I know that in the end Cassim doesn't stay in Agrabah but goes on a journey to who knows where, but considering the concept of the character, he would surely go looking for more treasures but now with the knowledge that his son is fine and has achieved what he wanted. Maybe they would stay in contact or whatever :P

I think there is an interaction between Jazmín and Cassim, so an interaction between Emma and Isabella would be perfect to complete Ray's happiness in this AU 🖤🦋~

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

👑;; Norman as Prince Minerva~

When he presented himself before Emma and her father, he radiated that aura all princes seem to have — representing his region flawlessly, like someone who had dedicated his entire life to royalty. So what made him even slightly different from the previous suitors? He wasn't arrogant. And though he came bearing gifts of wealth, he didn’t offer them with the usual intentions — they weren’t bribes, as if trying to put a price on the princess. To Yuugo, he was annoyingly humble for someone of his status.

Emma wasn’t naive — many had tried to act that way in front of her, and things had ended badly for them. But for political reasons, she agreed to his visit, already preparing her usual “No” to the marriage proposal for the end of the meeting.

But Emma’s perspective on Norman began to shift.

During his stay at the castle, Norman and Emma bonded faster than even Emma expected. He truly was a prince — not because of his status or polished appearance, but because Emma got to know Norman’s heart during a few sincere conversations. They shared one important thing that brought them closer: their love for their people. Emma felt understood. For the first time since princes started arriving to propose to her, she felt like she’d met someone who saw the world the same way she did. Maybe… he was the one.

However, everything changed when Norman admitted that he didn’t actually want to marry her. He was there under orders from his father (James or Peter? You decide), who wanted to seize the opportunity and form an alliance with Sultan Yuugo by marrying off his daughter — like all the other princes had tried to do. But Norman didn’t want to be part of an arranged marriage, the kind his dynasty had always relied on. If everyone else ignored love and saw marriage only as a way to make deals and forge alliances, Norman would not be like them. He wanted to rule his kingdom beside someone who complemented him emotionally.

Norman had met Emma — and to him, she was undoubtedly the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen (not just physically). She was perfect, an ideal match. But he refused to have her… because he didn’t love her.

He admired who Emma was — she was almost like his reflection in a mirror. But Norman longed to truly fall in love with someone, someone who needed him more than anything, someone who stirred in him a deep desire to protect her, even with his life if needed. And, as contradictory as it sounded, Emma didn’t awaken that feeling in him. That’s why he dared to tell her the truth, apologizing for wasting her time.

Emma understood — because deep down, she wanted the same. For her, Norman’s pure honesty was the most valuable gift any stranger had ever given her. Not the gold, not the lavish offerings — but his sincerity and his emotions. They agreed to decline the engagement, each wishing the other the happiness they both deserved.

But just because they didn’t marry doesn’t mean they drifted apart. They became the kind of friends who are basically soulmates — but in a platonic way ❤️‍🩹. They stayed in touch, sent each other gifts, and visited from time to time.

I love imagining that when Emma and Ray were preparing their wedding invitations, Emma insisted that Norman’s had to be the very first one sent.

As for Ray and Norman — they ended up becoming good friends too. I can picture them sharing moments together, maybe even Ray asking Norman for advice. I also adore the idea of Norman reminding Ray that his past doesn’t have to affect his present, and especially not the love he shares with Emma.

“But wait, did Norman just end up alone watching all the happy couples get married? 😭” Nope. He’d meet his special someone — maybe one of the maids at the Rayemma wedding. Who? Idk, maybe it was YOU 😻✨

What did you expect? A messy, jealous Norman just because this is a Rayemma AU? NO👹 Not here. Just because I ship Rayemma doesn’t mean I’m going to disrespect Norman or his eternal and warm appreciation for Emma. I wanted to use his character gently 💕 because Norman is a precious soul, and he would genuinely be happy for Ray and Emma 🥰✨

Oh, and the “Not Canon” sign I’m holding? That’s to say Norman DOES NOT REPRESENT ANY SPECIFIC CANON CHARACTER in the Aladdin story. None of the existing characters really matched what I wanted Norman to be — so I made up a role just for him, one that mattered to both Emma and Ray: a true and royal friendship. I didn’t want to leave him out of this AU, but I also didn’t want him to get in the way of Ray and Emma. That’s just not my style :/

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

AAAAAND THAT'S AAALL YAYYY-

I love writing things like this. It helps me disconnect from reality and is my way of appreciating the characters from The Promised Neverland, even after all this time. If there’s a character you’re wondering about — whether they’re part of this AU or not — just leave a comment, and I’ll be happy to reply!

If you made it this far, thank you so much 💖

And with that, this AU comes to an end. I’m honestly satisfied🙂‍↕️

Sometimes it's better to pretend that Norman from S2 is actually a poorly done clone in Lambda and the Real did die when he was harvested.

I ask for my turn after Gilda kicks him 🚶‍♂️✋🏼

Gilda could kick Norman's ass any day

SALAM!! 🙏🏼🙂‍↕️

Nope, it’s not a sad drawing of Rayemma as I would love to do. Not today 🙂‍↔️✨

Sometimes washing the dishes helps you generate ideas, so while I was scrubbing, I thought of Ray and Emma as rulers of Agrabah, and I couldn’t shake the idea until I moved my finger back and forth and got it out of my mind.

You must already know the story of Aladdin and Jasmine: a poor thief manipulated by a crucial figure in the Agrabah kingdom's government to obtain a lamp that happens to contain a magical Genie who grants 3 wishes to its bearer. Aladdin, in love with the princess of the kingdom, Jasmine, asks the Genie to turn him into a prince so he can get closer to her, using the name "Ali" to hide his true identity. Although everything initially goes wrong, mostly causing offenses for Jasmine, Prince Ali shows her "the magic of an ideal world," and that was enough to win the princess's heart. They face problems, many problems, but in the end, they end up together. No more lies, just the love they had for each other.

NOW JUST IMAGINE THAT STORY BUT WITH EMMA AND RAY AS THE PROTAGONISTS!

The story in Aladdin is literally my favorite specific prompt: A poor (boy) x B rich (girl). Just like that, I love it; it’s perfect 🙂‍↕️✨. I think Rayemma fits it very well, and also Jasmine is at the top of my favorite princesses. She’s my top, just like Emma 🥰💖. Plus, the story favors my more personal Rayemma headcanon: Aladdin (Ray) fell in love first.

That’s why I spent several days trying to depict my favorite scenes of Ali and Jasmine but with a Rayemma version.

The outfits are detailed based on the LIVE ACTION of ALADDIN, as the animated version seemed very simple, and it was Rayemma I wanted to create, so I wanted to make it more "elaborate"? xD.

My challenge here was with Emma; from the first moment for her outfit, I thought of colors that could highlight something physical about her, like in Jasmine's case: her aquamarine outfit highlights her beautiful brown skin. I wanted something similar for Emma: I chose blue because I think it brings out her green eyes and orange hair. I’m not an expert, and color theory isn’t my best friend, but to my eye, it looks good. You can give your opinion on my choice if you want x) (but please, don’t be cruel, okay? I cry over anything).

Did I break my head? A lot, but I’m happy with the result. VERY HAPPY ✨🔥💗🌻✨!!!

Although I owe you a good background in each drawing, the truth is that I don’t know how to make them, okay? I focused all my attention on Ray/Emma and not on the background details, so in the end, I ran out of ideas 😵‍💫.

Oh! Soon I will add some other relevant characters from the story adapted to some characters of The Promised Neverland, who in my opinion represent very well or is funny to imagine them like this 😋

If you’ve read this far, THANK YOU!! I really appreciate it 💖.

Of course, I have other AUs thought up for Rayemma; if they really convince me and I solidify my desires, I will try to draw them too. Although I should try to write about them in those AUs... I used to do Rayemma one-shots in 2021-2022; I wonder if I can pick it back up...

That’s all for now.

YEEEESSSSS LET'S GOOOOO

Finally, I finished this page 💥💥

Drawing in the night is always wonderful ✨

I guess I'm glad how this turned out, I tested many pallets and colours to find favourite ones (for future works as well thehe) ><

Small note:

1) here I drew the hairstyles in an older style, so they differ from the previous sketches

2) I know that Emma has green eyes, but for convenience I made them orange, don't hit me with slippers for this–)

I feel how I overdone with my RayEmma hyperficsation, I think I should slow down a little bit haha– (I love them too much ughhh💥💥)

Anyway hope you like this page, for now bye bye!! ><

P.S.: fan fact about part with umbrellas: I kinda wanted to repiete one scene from artbooks where were also umbrellas, but I realised that my skills with watercolor still not that good :_D

P.S.S: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SO MANY LIKES AND REBLOGS HOLLY MOLLY SORRY I DIDN'T MENTION THAT LAST TIME BUT THANK YOU THANK YOU 💖💖💖💖💖

HEADCANONS

•❅──────✧❅🧡🖤❅✧──────❅•

I think the best part of having a ship is being able to share how much you love the details that can develop between them, the thousand and one scenes that look so good on both of them, and somehow it makes you happy just imagining them ♡. That’s why today I bring my favorite rayemma headcanons, maybe you who are reading this can find one here that you like or maybe we have one in common!! :D

I won't make this any longer, here I leave them!

🌻;; Ray falls first

I like to think that Emma, without doing anything specific or extraordinary, managed to awaken certain emotions in Ray that sparked internal debates within him—denials, evasiveness, and downplaying his own feelings. It’d be complicated because I feel Ray, with his mindset, would prioritize logic, what his mind dictates, or physical reactions over identifying his emotional feelings for her (specifically love here. We know Emma is the thread holding Ray’s sanity together since she saved him at GF, and even long before that, she was already one of the few important people in his life). That’s why it’d be hard for him to understand what he felt—whether it was right or wrong, how to handle it, etc. But I believe he’d eventually surrender to the idea that, at some point, it was no longer just "strong fondness" he felt for her. EMMA WOULD ABSOLUTELY BE RAY’S FIRST LOVE, I KNOW IT!!! 🥰

🌻;;Forehead kisses

I LOVE the idea of both Emma and Ray giving each other forehead kisses. In this case, I adore imagining Emma started this gesture between them. Emma, being the beautiful, radiant sun she is, is very affectionate and warm with everyone. But when it comes to Ray, I think she’d want to show him how special he is to her in a way only she can—AND THAT’S WHERE THE MIGHTY FOREHEAD KISSES COME IN!!! She’d give them before bed, after waking up together, just because she felt like it, or even to comfort Ray if he’s upset or sad. ISN’T THIS THE PUREST THING?!?!!

🌻;; Nicknames!!

Honestly, I think only Ray would use nicknames for Emma, like calling her "Antenna" affectionately or to tease her (ye Yuugo reference 😭). As for Emma, I love the idea that she prefers saying Ray’s name outright, so she wouldn’t give him nicknames.

🌻;; Ray cuts

Emma’s hair.

This is one of my FAVORITES!!! As time passes and Emma’s hair grows past her neck and frames her face, Ray offers to trim it if she wants. While cutting it, I think Ray would comment on her hair: that it’s pretty, that he loves its color, or that maybe she could grow it out someday and—in his opinion—she’d look beautiful. He’d also probably poke at the uncuttable long strand on her head (since the creators confirmed it’s impossible to cut, which is why Isabella couldn’t remove it either x) )

Yeh ik that strand has a life of its own-

🌻;; Love language

Ray's love language for Emma is cooking. Emma gives off major foodie vibes, so when Ray steps into the kitchen, he knows exactly how to please her. He also loves hearing her praise his cooking, and though he acts cocky on the outside, inside he’s like, "She liked what I made…♡" —my boy is over the moon 🥰✨.

Emma’s love language, aside from physical touch, would be gift-giving. Even if she’s scatterbrained sometimes, I feel Emma pays attention to anything that catches Ray’s interest. So Ray would be surprised when she shows up with an item/clothing/accessory/decor she noticed he liked: "Here, this is for you just ’cause you’re cute."

Yes? YES!

🌻;; “I love you”

Emma says "I love you" to Ray more often. Ray, on the other hand, saves it for specific moments, though he wishes he could say it as freely as she does. The thing is, when Ray says "I love you" to Emma, it makes him feel so exposed—he becomes submissive and flustered, that classic mix of shyness and genuine affection clashing inside him. He knows it’s the deepest phrase he can share with her. But when he does say it, after the initial butterflies, he repeats it more calmly, gazing at her with adoration and heartfelt sincerity—enough to melt Emma.

and me 😭✨

🌻;; Discussions

If they argue, they take some space, but after a few minutes, either Emma or Ray seeks the other out to talk and apologize. They’d end up snuggled up, showering each other with affection, and promising to try their best not to argue again. In this context, if Emma senses Ray’s anger toward her, she’d spiral into thoughts like, "What is it about me that upsets him?" And if Ray feels Emma’s anger, he’d just stare at the ceiling for minutes, pondering similar things. The point is, since they’re so attached and need each other, they can’t stay angry long. They always resolve things and reunite ❤️‍🩹✨

I don't usually draw, in fact if I do two or three drawings a year for me it's a success lol, but I had that idea Rayemma and I didn't want to leave it alone in my mind so I moved my finger from here to there and that's what came out x)

Although I haven't honestly seen SG2, I only saw some TikTok clips of the 120 player and the other girl whose number I can't remember. I thought it was a pretty desperate and sad scene and I thought “This has Rayemma vibes”. I'm a fan of any story or drawing that ends with Emma dying in front of Ray, either by sacrifice or like that situation above ( Normally, you love a character so much that you just want to make them suffer🤭🖤🧡✨)

Don't believe it, if it hit me with something ugly in my heart when I finished it 😣, even so, I really liked how it turned out and I wanted to share it!! 💖

Thanks for reading if you've come this far!! I appreciate it a lot ✨ As a prize, I give you an overview of my favorite details of the drawing! ⇩⇩

That's all, byeeee 🖤🧡✨

[natdeemma]

A small complaint...

To capture the attention of a fandom, is it necessary to conduct surveys or anonymous questions about the most controversial, morally questionable, and polarizing topics within it?

I have come across a group of people who say they want to "revive" this part of the TPN fandom in some way. I understand that they want to draw attention and reignite the love we have for REN and the story in general... But why do it in such a childish way?

What is the benefit of criticizing artists, flickers, and anyone else who dedicates their time and art to the fandom? I am aware that there are renowned artists who, in past years, have faced controversies due to their REN/TPN content, perhaps because it is +18 and that offends many (whether it’s a drawing or a written piece).

But why bring it back to "revive the fandom"? Is that what really matters? It doesn't even focus on what is truly intended, and personally, I find it annoying. Instead of attracting people, this type of action pushes them away. For heaven's sake, even creating a group to discuss it is one of the worst ideas.

What is wrong with those people? Where is their true appreciation for TPN? I know haters are going to hate, but there is still a limit.

Although I feel guilty for not trying to stop it, I just watched their comments to see how far they would go... I think I was wrong on my part.

Remember, if you want to revive a fandom, approaching it through hate and touching on the sensitive topics I mentioned to draw attention is not the best way. I have seen that there are people working on some very good projects with TPN, such as animations, a fan-made remake for fans, and healthy art that engages in the best way.

We want TPN to resurge because of the good memories, experiences, and moments it left us, not because of its "dark side"...

I still wonder if I'm wrong or if I'm just being foolish for thinking this way... :(

Anyways, I’ll leave a doodle of Emma made by me that represents my expression that day...

[natdeemma]

63194, Emma

Opinion, recommendation

✼ •• ┈┈┈┈๑⋅⋯ ୨🌻୧ ⋯⋅๑┈┈┈┈ •• ✼

There are good protagonists, bad protagonists, neutral protagonists, and each one will be loved or hated by the public for various reasons even if it has nothing to do with the story. Yes, because sometimes we're never satisfied with anything, or in some cases, we become so fascinated that we fear that X character might fall into the wrong hands and ruin all the development that was had.

Anyway, every time I remember it I will always be grateful for the good writing that Emma had as the protagonist of The Promised Neverland. She is the most precious jewel of the entire manga, and even if you don't answer this post, I know you will agree.

Emma is... she is simply the model of protagonist that we deserve in similar stories (I mean the shonen genre in general)

Although I could send an entire damn post naming the 63194 reasons why I believe Emma is a good protagonist, I won't do it. (For now)

But I would love to share what makes her so relevant (according to me and for me)

🌻;; Her ideals feel natural and right, seeking the benefit for both sides (demons/humans) without leaving anyone behind and finding the way to fulfill what she dreamed of so much. That entails a constant consultation with her own ideals, because she was not living an easy situation, she lived in an environment where one wrong decision carried a ton of lives. But no matter how many times she was in a dead end, she always held her ideals with both hands even if that led her to have arguments with her closest ones (mostly Norman and Ray). I like that the writers have maintained this point from beginning to end without any change that would make the character step back in herself; the way she tests how faithful she was to herself was magnificent and can be detailed in every chapter of the story.

🌻;; Her important influence on other characters, she was the reason why Yuugo gave his own life a second chance, it was the reaffirmation of hope that Lucas needed and, as if that were not enough, she was able to clarify Mujika’s purpose of existence. Each one had the opportunity to get to know her and change their different perspectives of the same situation in which they lived; I believe that is the greatest mark that Emma left in the world of demons and it is one of my favorite characteristics of the character, her hopeful and confident influence.

🌻;; How capable she is of putting others above herself; from the first chapter it is made clear that Emma will never think of herself first, she will always put her loved ones ahead of herself no matter what. Many times I questioned this way of thinking, but the conclusion is so simple that it makes my head hurt from how simple it is: she loves. Love is also part of her personality and completes her character. Every action she took was done thinking that she loved her siblings and wanted their future to be bright, which led her to sacrifice herself until the end. It is something that hurts me so much when I see her, but that was her desire and she fought hard for it.

In spite of everything, I wonder if Emma was afraid to d!e. To give her memories as a reward was to leave her empty, that's another way to d!e if you think about it... :(

🌻;; How stubborn, obstinate, insistent she can be when she wants something, and how she makes those who are against her become part of her plans (Yes Ray, I’m talking to you 😋)

🌻;; Her design, if I had to draw hope I would simply draw Emma without more. Her design is undoubtedly my favorite in a female character because from every angle there is the illusion of a girl, the determination of the toughest decisions in the mind of someone 12/13/14 years old. It is extravagant without being visually annoying and I love relating her to a sunflower because it has a beautiful simplicity.

Here my favorite official drawing of Emma (Thanks so much Posuka🙇‍♂️🌻✨)

( Why is she so damn beautiful 😭)

Returning to the beginning, Emma is one of the best shonen protagonists who is unjustly being forgotten over time; I only hope, with all my heart, to see her on screen again with a well-deserved S2 remake and that people can focus on her again like back in 2019 ;(

Thank you for reading if you made it this far!! I really appreciate it 💖 If you have no comments to add, how about this recommendation for you:

It’s an original song based on TPN, I think it very well reflects Emma’s point of view and it is quite beautiful overall 🌻✨...
