Hey anon with the ask about the motor-bike scene... uhm... seems like Tumblr just ate the post... so in case it's not reoccurring...
I wanted to say, thank you for your analysis. And I agree, Franky and Robin have a special bond and way to interact with each other. It's very different to the way they interact with the rest.
And I also wanted to point out how Frankys face changes when he realises that Brook is answering him:
how it goes from :D to >:(
And I love how Robin face changes when Franky asks her to ride with him:
This was suggested from Episode 984, easy to forget it’s anime-only. It’s happening as the Allied forces start to infiltrate Onigashima. This is another interesting type of “filler” actually, for being such a simple scene. We’ll see Kiku, Kawamatsu, & Doji taking an interest in the sub so the staging is a riff on that. Cool zoom shot to the porthole.
But the content is interesting. Where it’s a cool example of filler is repeating a subtlety. On the sub in canon we get a small detail that’s at least hella cute and may mean more. Kiku has taken to calling Law Torao, adopting Luffy’s nickname. Then we surround that with a little scene of her being worried about Luffy. Expressing distaste at using someone they owe as a decoy. Not to mention a very cute face when Kawamatsu walks up! Nice extra beat for bolstering the special bond there too.
What can I say? It’s a nice bonus scene for Kiku that’s built on what’s there. Really it’s a lot for a short scene! Reminder they’ve bonded, the nickname beat, conflict with Law, interest in the sub, best kappa buddy, and showing off she’s a sweetie all in one go.
I love your translations and I love Kaito and Shinoichi even if I never watched Detective Conan. Thanks for translating all those doujinshis, I appreciate it.
Hi!
Thanks for your message, it makes me really happy to know you loved them because of the djs! Now I can say I've done a good job as a KaiShin ambassador lol.
And I understand how daunting it is to try and get into DCMK when it has over 1000 chapters/episodes already, I was there myself. If you want to check their anime versions, I can recommend watching the following movies and episodes only, since KID/Kaito only appears in a handful of them.

OK, that's it. Check those out if you want to see them banter in glorious 2D animation, maybe?
Ao.
Two characters collapsing onto the mattress - uncaring of their attire/the blankets that are still tucked in.
The caretaker laying on a backpack as a pillow to get some sleep, while the whumpee is passed out across the mattress.
The whumpee having no choice but to lay on the floor because the mattress is too soft/lumpy for their damaged back.
Tearing open plastic bags to protect the mattress from field surgery.
Leaving a tip for the housekeeping service as an apology for the mess.
The caretaker hesitantly leaving for food/other necessities.
The whole team, after rescuing the whumpee, lay on every inch of the double mattress as the whumpee doesn't want to be alone, and equally the team wants to make sure that the whumpee is okay/will pull through.
The caretaker waking up and wondering why the blanket feels damp - only to discover the whumpees stitches have been pulled/their bandage has been bled through/the whumpee failed to mention a severe injury.
The whumpee waking everyone up from a nightmare and apologising profusely. Bonus points if this character has always done everything in their power to hide these episodes.
The whumpee anxious about sleeping around other people because of their frequent nightmares.
Huddling for warmth because the heater is broken.
The AC is broken, and the whumpee is struggling through a fever - even the open window doesn’t help.
Using the small soaps the hotel offers to clean up, and hissing through the sting of scented soaps on their wounds.
The whumpee asking the caretaker to stay, so they climb in next to them.
The recently rescued whumpee having to be convinced they are safe; the caretaker does multiple sweeps of the room. Eventually they compromise by having the whumpee tucked into the caretakers side, and sleeping with the lights on.

It was definitely fun to read because the included cases are all very good. Still I think some is them are very well-fitting for the topic of this selection, but there might also be some better cases that show the people’s relationships and backgrounds. Some of the cases are just part of this volume for one or two important scenes. And I’m still mad that we didn’t get a true Takasa selection for movie 25 promo...
Heart On Fire by waltzforthemoon - this is a Fero perspective fic of the end of SiH30 which really hit my sweet spot after I relistened to that episode over the weekend. Hits the right fero beats/characterization for me and also sold me on the Fero/Ephrim within
Periaston by wannabequeen - this soft and sexy SamSam smut is historically 1000th fic posted in the fatt ao3 tag! (fun fact: it currently sits at number 984, meaning that there were 16 fics prior to it that have been deleted since its posting)
grounded and celestial by fangirl_squee - if you've seen that great art of counter/weight au fero, candidate of samol then you should check out this fic inspired by it!

yourusername: Today marks a huge milestone for me.
Trigger warning for the message below as it deals with body image struggles and eating disorders, please only read if in the right mindset and situation for it. 💓
Over 10 years ago I decided I wanted to recover from my body dysmorphia and address my eating disorder. It wasn’t an easy task and I fell often but on this day 10 years ago was the last true slip up. 10 years ago today I stopped actively participating in trying to meet what I felt were society’s expectations of me. Healing isn’t linear and there are still times I struggle with a healthy self image but over the last 10 years I have been able to correct myself each time and address the negative thoughts in a positive and healthy manner and form positive ones about myself. I didn’t think that would be possible 10 year ago.
To those who’ve been there or still are, please know it doesn’t what you look like, what you think you look like, what size you are, what size you want to/“should” be, or any other expectations; you are BEAUTIFUL and worthy of love. It took me a long time to realize that and that might be the same for you, but I promise you’ll get there. If you slip, don’t get angry at yourself please. Just dust yourself off and go again, it’ll get easier. ❤️🩹
These photographs are by none other than @/harryholland64 aka the most considerate & supportive boyfriend. I am in love with them not just because they’re so good, because it’s from him, nor because he’s so sweet. Those are all true, but I love them because I can see how much happier and more confident I am in myself and I never knew that would be possible. It also proves that how you perceive yourself on your bad days aren’t accurate. Some of these were taken on days where I was struggling a bit and I didn’t know they were being taken. Had I known in the moment when some were being taken, I probably would’ve been mortified at the time because of how I felt about myself. However, once I’m able to address the thoughts I’m struggling with and pull myself back up, I feel better about myself and when I do I can truly appreciate seeing them.
These are only a handful of them but he framed all of them and put them up on my walls in my closet by my mirror for my bad days to remind me how he sees me and the thoughtfulness and support from him is immeasurably heartwarming. Baz, my precious baby boy, I love you more than anything in this world and I’m so blessed to be able to have the co-leading role in #TheAdventuresofDatingHarry 💘

I’ve seen so many different translations of that scene in the manga and after hearing it in the anime which is what I based it on, she seems really happy to being able to ride on Franky’s motorbike. Which I found really cute of her. I never have seen her this happy and in the manga or the colorspreads, she always is either engaged in conversations with Frankly openly smiling or looking lovingly at Franky in some colorspreads when he is on the opposite side and all. Of course Franky also reciprocates these sentiments towards her as well. Long story short, they clearly get along very well in conversations and happily so. Engaged blissfully in their conversations with great intent. All is great. I’ve never seen either of them like this with anybody else than themselves with each other. That is a big hint. What do you think about it?
Hey there anon! that is great news!
And thank you so much for you analysis and your words! and I agree there is something special about the way Franky and Robin interact with each other. It is absolutely unique!
I decided to cut the scene for others to compare! Also the sub is there.
What I also love is frankys face when he realises that is not Robins voice that answers "Okay, I'm ready."
I also love Robins face, that turns from solem to happy when Franky offers the ride:
And how Brook is just leaning in, knowing exactly what he is going to do, robbing Franky of some calm moments with his wife.
Would you rather binge watch the entire fairy tail series in one sitting, no sleeping (eating and drinking is allowed), or only get to watch one episode every other month (and not being allowed to consume any official fairy tail content outside of that single episode)?
wow! these both sound like terrible options LMAOOOO
328 episodes at about 22 minutes each totals to 7216 minutes which is 120 hours or 5 days. it's no one piece but it's certainly not the easiest watch in the world either. see the thing is i value my sleep a lot, so if this had let me get 8 hours of sleep and then do nothing but binge it i would be all for it, but if i don't get that 8 hours of sleep i would feel like shit! i would not be able to enjoy it because i would be too busy feeling like fucking shitty poopoo garbo and trying to stay awake
the other option also does not sound better! let's say that "every other month" means once every 3 months. for 328 episodes that's 984 months which is 82 YEARS. i would be dead. the poor nurse would come in to give me by semi-annual fairy tail episode and i'd still be on tartaros. doing that would be fine, but to not be able to consume any official media outside of that??? that's my hell!! i can only read so many nalu fics with the word luce in it. i need to ruminate my brain in the anime or manga to refresh their voices in my brain and make good, in character fics or i will Die
so gun to my head if i had to choose, i'd go with the first one, because at the very least it would be over quickly
Only the first of those titles will actually show up when you search for it. There are now 50 episodes Dubbed, and all of the same episodes can also be watched Subbed and maybe more by the time I get this posted.
Initially it was only the first 10, of those 971-974 is an interesting 4 parter and the best of those 10 which are all muliti parters.
The best one off episodes from in the first 20 are 978-980, any of those three could make a neat first impression of the show.
984-985 is a Kaitou Kid case featuring some of the regional recurring characters that is pretty good.
988 and 992 are Sonoko Deduction Queen episodes and I guess I just feel bad for the BangZoom actress never getting to do one of these since it never happens in the movies. At any rate both these episodes are pretty cool.
But perhaps the best episodes Dubbed on Tubi so far are 993-995 Makoto Kyogoku the Understudy. It's the Dub debut in any cast for Sera Masumi and a pretty perfect episode to introduce her with. Makoto's character is also perhaps better represented here then in the Blue Sapphire movie. The episode has an isolated case that's interesting but happens do a decent amount of Lore refreshing that I think makes it a good set of episodes for newbies. And also plenty of moments that are just plain fun.
1000-1001 is actually a remake of an early case, episode 11 on Crunchyroll and Filmrise and 11-12 in the Funimation Dub. It's a stand alone case plot-wise but story wise is important to why saving the lives of even the culprits is important to Conan. But it has a potentially problematic element that makes my feelings towards it mixed. At any rate I really don't consider this remake the optimal viewing experience anyway, the tone and mood of this story really is better served by Retro Conan's artstyle.
1002 is the lead in episode for The Scarlet Bullet. How these lead in episodes actually relate to the film in question is usually pretty abstract, they are by no means necessary. Part of why I think a mistake was made is that even before these finally went up I was expecting that 1002 might be skipped for the purpose of saving it for being a bonus feature when Scarlet Bullet finally gets an English BluRay release. I would probably like this episode more if I wasn't as politically informed as I am, this is practically a PSA episode about littering that really plays into the Liberal individualizing of the issue.
1004-1005 is another good 3 parther.
Episode 1009 is a fun Detective Boys episode. 1010 is a unique episode that I found pretty fun, and it;s another appearance of Danny's.
1011-112 is pretty interesting. It's the first Columbo type Case in these Tubi Dubbed episodes so far, and the Dub debuts of both the Kindergarden Teacher and Yamamura the Gunma inspector. I was actually suprised how well Yamamura's voice turned out, he fits the character perfectly.
