#haikyuu bsd is such an amazing concept I love it

[silverquillsideas]

Hi...if you don't mind me asking who are your top 10 favorite anime couples (can be canon or fanon)? And why? Sorry if you've answered this question before.....

Hi! Oof this is another tricky one lol.... The way I ship is basically in two ways : obsess over ships from shows I'm currently watching for a few weeks/months, and then the love sort of fades away :3

OR find my OTPs and consistently obsess for years :D

So, the following list contains both my current/older ships and some of my OTPs :P

Naruto/Sasuke

My OTP of all OTPs. The love of my shipper life 😍 I have so many bones to pick with Naruto as a media/show, but I'll be grateful it gave me SNS, I'll never stop being in awe of their unparalleled story :')

Victor/Yuuri

Canon, comfort pairing, sweetness to the max. Victuuri is like that soft blanket u tuck yourself into in winter mornings, or that cup of hot cocoa you sip while sitting on a windowsill. They warm my heart <3

Bakudeku

Lolll can u tell I have a type? I'm a goner for childhood friends (+rivals) to lovers tropes, and bkdk has that and SO MUCH more. Someday, I'll read the bnha manga from start to finish just because of these two :')

Royai

The only het ship in anime I can respect, besides Sakura and Syaoran from Cardcaptor Sakura 😌 they are the royal couple, so to speak. So much of shared history, trauma between them. Yet will give up their lives for each other, the trust and faith and sheer badassery of this ship is just ❤️

Touya/Yukito

My first ever ship at age 14, the very first time I discovered that two boys can fall in love w each other and that's okay too!! I can't express how grateful I am to Cardcaptor Sakura for being basically the show which made me fall in love w anime, and introducing me to the glorious concept of *ahem* BL 👀

Iwaoi

Another freaking amazing ship. My favourite ship in haikyuu!! This one ticks so many of my boxes : childhood friends to lovers, teammates who trust e/o unconditionally, and pull each other up, the idiot A and serious/responsible B 😂 Two people who basically spend their whole lives together :*3 and look at them!!! The dorks!!! 😍

Miyuki/Chris

This one came outta nowhere and totally hooked me in. Idk what it is about them : the potential angst, the misunderstandings, the rivalry and respect as fellow teammates, Chris' trauma about having his place snatched by this brilliant kid he helped scout....just...so much shared past :3 I'm sorry miyusawa fans, while I like it too, this one just took the top spot for me from DNA :')

Soukoku

BSD was a huge obsession in 2019, and soukoku undoubtedly became one of my fav ships. Self explanatory : rivals / long time friends / only two ppl who keep each other sane / the daily bickering like a married couple / Dazai giving awful nicknames to Chuuya and teasing him all the time and so much more 😂 they're simultaneously both clowns, as well as two traumatised individuals complementing e/o

Saigenos

Cute and hilarious ship honestly. But has the potential to be angsty and serious too. This was a short hyperfixation a while ago, and I still remember it fondly ❤️

________

A confession at the end : I had to exclude some of my other, more beloved ships, because the tumblr crowd is.... Let's say, too delicate to handle those lmfao 👀 I don't want delusional antis to come screeching with pitchforks at my blog, so I'll stick to the softer ships 😂

🏀, 📖, 🎸, 🚗, 👤, 📼, 💄, 🔮, 🎁, 💞, 👭, 💘, 🕛, ⛅ for the Gay/Lesbian ask game please?

Alrighty lol xD

🏀🏐 Do you play any sports?

Uh, not anymore unfortunately. When i was in middle school, i played basketball, volleyball, did cheerleading, and was in running club. In highschool, i did cross country in the fall, and i think that's it lol, since i was mostly obsessed with doing theatre lol. I realy liked building the sets and painting, and being on running crew lol. If i ever decided to join a sport, it would be either soccer or beach volleyball, since those seem the most fun. And good cardio too!

📖 Do you write?

Yeah, occasionally lol. I'm not the greatest writer ever, but i'd like to think i'm proud of the work that I've posted. Mostly just Haikyuu and K Project fics. Here's my AO3:

https://archiveofourown.org/users/ElotheFairy

Eventually i want to write some BSD and She-Ra fics, cause i have some ideas, i'm just pretty lazy when it comes to writing, whoops.

🎸 Are you a musician?

Oh I wishhh. That would be so cool. I used to be able to play the piano, and I'm able to reteach myself the scales and play simple songs if I'm sitting at home, but that's about it lol. I need one of those lil whiteboards that you can stick right above a keyboard so i can just have the scale in front of me and learn cute studio ghibli piano songs lol.

🚗 Can you drive?

Surprisingly, yes. Lol I'm a Midwest American queer, so we gotta either learnt to drive ourselves to the cool places, or date someone who can drive us everywhere xD I'm great driving in my hometown and in my college town, but I still can't drive in super big cities quite yet. That'll have to change soon tho once I move for my apprenticeship!

👤 Favorite LGBT fictional character?

Does Kakashi count xD

I'm sure there are a bunch of good queer characters out there, but deadass, most of the shows I watch, it's merely implied, oof. If we're going with canonly queer, i guess i like Simon from Love, Simon a lot. Oh, and of course, Scorpia from She-Ra lol. I hc her as a nb androg lesbian lol. Oh, and Chloe and Max from Life is Strange, and that one chick from Stranger Things, i guess.

If we're going with just, an implied/possibly coded queerness, I love Oikawa from HQ, i headcanon him as a demiboy who is bi or pan. (I headcanon that most fo the dudes from that anime are bi lmao). Uh, I also love Akutagawa and Odasaku from Bungou Stray dogs. I headcanon that Akutagawa is a trans nb guy, demisexual, and panromantic. I also hc Oda as bi lol. I also love Akagi and Misaki from K project, i hc Misaki as a bi trans guy, lol. And i hc Akagi as cis and bi. For She-Ra, i adore both Bow and Sea Hawk, i think it might be implied that Bow is a trans guy, so i hc him as trans and bi. And for my love, Sea Hawk, i hc him as bigender and bi, who laters gets into a polyamrous relationship with both Bow and Mermista lol. Sorry, I have a lot of implied queer hc's, lol.

📼 80's or 90's?

90's for fashion, hair, and makeup.

80's for great music, cute ppl, and fun design ideas lol.

💄 Do you like makeup?

Uhhh, it's kinda complicated.

I like makeup as a concept of freedom of expression, feminity, a way of transforming yourself into a piece of art, blurring the lines between gender ideals, presentation, makeup for fantasy concepts, etc.

But i also dont't like makeup sometimes because it's def been used as a tool to pressure women into performative feminity, used, as a way to groom young girls, used a sneaky way of breaking down a lot of ppl's self confidence, it encourages highly unrealistic beauty standards (for both women and men), i also hate how motherfucking EXPENSIVE and unsustainable it is.

So as a tool for art, genderfuckery, and self-expression, i love it. But as a msrketing concept mostly driven by male CEOs and years and years of misogny and captialism? Not so much lol. I like wearing makeup for big occasions or for when i feel hyperfeminine some days, but I usually prefer going without it.

🔮 Do you believe in astrology?

Yeah, to a reasonable extent lol. I'm not one of those queer that obsesses over every little detail tho. I'm still def learning about it. I recently lesrned that you can combine astrology, with tarot readings, which can greatly specifiy the readings, for both yourself and other people, so I think i'll try that once I get a tarot deck for my birthday lol.

🎁 Fave holiday?

Well, I could be one of those queers who automatically says Halloween, but the more i think about it, i think i like the fall/halloween season waaayy more. Which makes me think that I actually like Thanksgiving a lot, as just, an American holiday. I don't think we shoukd really celebrate it for it's historical reasons, but i also will never say no to good food, family, friends, and a general warmth and sense of peace during that time of the year :3

💞 Fave thing to do on a first date?

Festivals!!!! I looooovee going to any type of market, festival, etc. with someone. I think it's a great way to explore, start conversations, and learn about someone. Cuz like, the type of art, food, trinkets, and music that draws someone in can you a lot about that person, if you think about it! It's hella cute. And then once you're tired of the crowds, most festivals usually have quiet garden or parks near them that you can escape to for some quiet time and deep conversations, lol.

👭 Do u have a gf? Do you want one?

No, I don't have a girlfriend lol. I have an amazing and very caring boyfriend tho. I have briefly dated women in the past tho. It's been fun, lol. I've always wondered, if i had more past romantic/sexual experiences with women, then maybe i'd possibly identify as a lesbian, but honestly, I'm proud of my journey, and I get very happy when I think about my bigender-ness and bisexuality lol. I don't think I would change that for anything. For whatever reason, i think I just click better with bois and nb ppl rather than with cis girls, i'm not sure why lol. But good for anyone who has a gf right now plz treat her like a kweennnn xD

💘

Do you believe in love at first sight?

No, lol. I used to, back in middle school tho. I def believe in love at second sight, or love at first conversation. Ppl are so damn cute when they talk about things they're passionate about, or even when they just get goofy and rant to you about a crazy story lol.

🕐 How old were you when you realized you weren't straight?

Oh god, lol. I was... *tries to do math* I think 16 or 17? I uhh had accidentally fallen for one of my best friends in high school lol. It turned out okay tho, we're still friends to this day. Thanks for that, friend, I'm so glad i realized that sooner rather than later lol.

⛅ Winter or summer queer?

Oh def, winter, lol. Altho winter depression is real most years, idk, i feel lkke i would rather be anxious and cold, rather than angry and sweating buckets lol. Actually now that I think about it, the summer always makes me a little more moody than winter, cause i always feel like i should doing more, but summer's really a time for waiting and rest, if you think about it. I'm always happier in the winter cause most of the time, i'm slowly moving towards certains goals in my life, and the world just...seems happier and more cozy in the winter season, idk.

Thanks for these asks, dude! I had a lot of fun with them, lol.

Anyone can ask me any of the other q's on the pinned pride game list if you'd like! Happy Pride, BLM!!

So do you prefer BSD over Haikyuu? or Haikyuu over BSD? or are they just too different to compare? I'm just curious, this is not a call-out or anything like that. Even though you're mostly a Haikyuu blog I enjoy seeing other animes on your tumblr as well! Your opinions are so well defined that I enjoy reading them even when you're talking about something I don't watch. So please don't feel bad about posting about them, you do you.

Thank you my love, it’s nice to hear that you’re enjoying the content no matter what the anime we’re talking about!

Well, this is a hell of a question. I think they are two very different shows and I love them for completely different reason. 

I liked Bungou Stray Dogs for the flawless plot, for the mesmerizing art style, for the incredible character design. I fell in love with a lot of the characters (Chuuya above all, as you may have guessed), with their heartbreaking back stories, with the dysfunctional relationships they have with each other, with their struggles and imperfections. It’s an amazing piece of entertainment that will revolutionize your concept of anime

Haikyuu, well...it’s a completely different story. Haikyuu spoke to me on so many levels. It inspired me to be a better and kinder person, it taught me the importance of endurance, of never giving up on your dreams, of trust. It taught me that no matter how hard you tried, you still could fail, you still could miss your chance. But that you were not given just that single chance in your life. It taught me how life changing some friendships could be, it taught me that you don’t have to be what others expect you to be, that you don’t have to be frigging perfect all the time. It taught me that sometimes all you can do is turn a situation into a meme, that people express love in different ways, that you don’t have to be on the court to be a part of the team. It taught me how beautiful it is to not be alone. It taught me that “because people don’t have wings...we look for other ways to fly”. But, mostly, Haikyuu gave me all of you and all the amazing friendships I developed here. It gave me memories that will be forever with me.  

So yeah, if I had to choose between them to save my life, I’ll still choose Haikyuu.
