Technically this spoils me but also makes me want to know more like What

IM SO SORRY FOR THE SPOIL i've just been really thinking about them too much lately

but, yeah, what's said on the tin! Any more details would be spoilers but yeah Ramuda fits this posts a lot. The more you know! Normal seiyuu saga!

if you really want more details it'd really spoil it *highly* since it's like.... stuff that are spread all around season 1 without it being clear and really only made clear in season 2. (one of my numerous "oh yeah i had this theory in the way back day and wtf what do you mean season 2 confirmed it" that plagues every single of my FP theories).

Tho i guess the one thing i can say without spoiling is that his name litterally means “Random Number”. You connect dots on what that could possibly mean in that context right.

the more you know?

@rumii-rue replied to your post “So my theories so far is that the new Osaka division, Dotsuitare Honpo...”

''People are starting to theories that he is maybe the BB's father'' EXCUSE ME WHAT–

LDJFKLDJFKLDFJFLKJDF HI HEY

so Rei is a conman, he’s 43, and he’s born on 1/23 (so he’s old enough to be the father of someone, and he has a 123 number thing going on)

we know he would stop at nothing to do his plans, fakes being social in order to go through them.

he hides his eyes, someone tried to zoom in and one of his eye seems green and we can’t make up the color of his other eye, and in the manga where he appears he keeps hiding at least one of his eye. (also he appears in BBvMTC)

So that can give enough of “hiding things that could relate him to the BB”.

the BB were furious on stage when the team was announced.

and from the TDD manga we know Ichiro has violent father issues and rejects father’s issues while Jiro and Saburo who were younger clang to father figures, which would imply that the reasons they became orphan came with something that would specifically make them feel a specific way about their father: betrayed for Ichiro who was older, and desperate for the youngest.

and from last chapter we know the orphanage was involved in child trafficking anyway so, as horrible as it is to say, there’s business into giving them children.

So what if the conman pulled something for whatever reason to get rid of his kids? 

And now he’s back. As a Mastermind. Ready to manipulate what he needs for whatever reason.

So that’s the theory people are coming up with lately and that’ll bring a lOT of BB’s angst.

.... do you want more?

Also not to like self promo or anything but I wrote about Ramuda softening up to Fling Posse and it really becoming a part of him solely through analysis of the eyes in Stella. I thought "Maybe I'm looking too much into this" but after your last response, FP really does mean something to Ramuda. But it's also the best because before FP, each member didn't have much. Gen had his intl friend who he was losing, Dice has nothing and Ramuda had lost a lot. Ugh FP is just 👌🏻👌🏻 ~ Haze

Ooooya? 👀👀👀👀 interesting interesting 

but oh my no i’m 100% with you there and I don’t think it’s overreading, Ramuda is COMPLETELY softening to the Posse in general and i think he didn’t expect how much he’d end up caring for them.

Stella is a huge indicator of that, with sooo much stuff tho, i’m just so soft about it like -

So Ramuda called TDD a Posse in the TDD Drama Track, and he obviously genuinely cared about them? But it broke apart, for reasons and it left him sour. so sour that what does he do the moment he gets to have a new Posse, people he definitly picked so he could use them? He calls them a Fling, setting a distance with them, readying himself into it eventually ending. Like he fooled himself by getting attached to TDD and he’s Not Going To Do The Same Mistake Twice. 

But he picked the two worst people for that because if anything, both Gentaro and Dice seem to be starved for this sort of significant friendship. 

If Gentaro’s song is only a little right, he had closed his heart to people when he was being bullied in school and once he met with his one friend, he became very clingy, he mentions snuggling with him, and multiple elements points to him shapping his current life for the well being of said friend who “had forgotten how to smile” as of now, as his intro rap goes.In general when you look at the rest of his interraction he doesn’t seek out others people a lot, but he does seek out the Posse. And then what does he do? does a fanfic about how he would be devasted if the Posse broke up (while they all signed for it to be a FLING) and if he could, he would bring it back together after all. And he wrote Stella, who’s the big “even if life puts us apart we’ll find each other again and we will walk our own path together” (which echo also his fanfic, which is relevent since the fanfic is Pre-Know your Enemy and Stella is Post-Loss of Battlex3)By all account, Gentaro had showed multiple times that he wants the Posse to find strength with one another - that he doesn’t want to give up on it. 

and Dice meanwhile, well, aside from Riou he doesn’t seem to have a lot of friends, probably not with his living and all. We see him distance himself from his responsabilities in important choices like *joining the posse* by relegating it to luck, he was ready to pass down the possibility of Once In a LifeTime friendship because he valued that.  Which makes me think Dice isnt exactly used into being *close* to people, or at least not now with his current lifestyle.

And let’s not lie to ourselves, Dice is extra self destructive with his habits, but look at how he was devasted when Riou fought him in the last drama track. He didn’t want to face a friend, but Riou was against him, because Dice made A Wrong Decision (and well, Riou’s loyalty first extended to Juuto).  But still that one scene may have been a specific stab for Dice to realize that the Posse had his back even when he was doing something Unbelievably Stupid that both Gentaro and Ramuda called him out about. Dice lives an unstable life, yet the Posse supports him, fight for him, defends him, gets in trouble for him. 

And it plays in Dice’s loyalty for them, how willing he is to fight for Gentaro, how he’s associated to Hachiko (the loyal dog who was waiting at the station for its master to come back home even after his death) in Hoodstar, and more specifically how he brags about how great His Posse is in said song. 

Ramuda freaking played himself.

He was planning a band with a group of outcasts and it ended up being two who were just as alone as he was. Two people who would relate to Ramuda’s self hatred and destructive and chaotic habits. (Gentaro and Dice both have comments about how they are trash, and I feel like Ramuda’s verse in Stella extends that Ramuda thinks just as much of himself) which is why Gentaro and Dice ends up litterally breaking down the defenses of Ramuda’s planet in the MV by telling him “well, we’re alike all three of us, we’re not good people, but together it’ll be fine”.

Ultimately Stella is full of Ramuda’s self hatred and how much he is TRYING to keep his distances from the posse but the MV shows us litterally how Gentaro and Dice breaks down the walls he had created. Before they do so, in the colors of the MV, Ramuda’s color is a light, lifeless pink - but once Gentaro and Dice starts to walk with him, the pink becomes bright, full of life - Ramuda is finding a reason to be lively again thanks to the Posse.

And if all of this sounds like overreading (it probably is bc i think about the Posse much more than i should) let’s not forget that Chapter 4 of the Manga ends with this:

(source of the translation)

“A true ordinary smile for just a moment”

and it was just after the second drama track with the Posse

Ramuda IS softening to the Posse. That’s a canon fact. He cannot help but care for them in the end. 

To which extend? With Stella i’d say a lot. I’d say Ramuda isn’t even realizing it, nor admitting it to himself.

But I stand by what I said - if he wanted to keep distances, he made a grave mistakes hiring Gentaro and Dice. 

Because those two are not really ready to just leave Ramuda alone just yet. They’re a Posse after all, an unvaluable bound. Can’t run away from that.

yeah now that i’m rereading my tags i’m realizing how this might come out as confusing

....yeah confusing

*sweats* i swear it all makes sense when you get into it i swear

@bayside-smoking-blues replied to your post “Translation of the Preview of Osaka Dreamin’ Night is up!! ”

That man is secretly a pimp you can't convince me otherwise

Honestly? You’re right on him being a pimp. But i doubt on the secretly. He oozes pimp energy, i doubt he manages to keep that part of himself a secret-

Else, you’re completely right and there’s nothing to be convinced against - he just Is.

OMG I AM FREAKING OUT!!! A NEW DIVISION???? H E L P

YES!!!!! YES A NEW DIVISION

(also Otome and Ichijiku sang on stage I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT SO MUCH ARE HAPPENING)

BUT YEAH NEW DIVISIONS we’ll get translations soon enough but we KNOW SASARA WAS SAMATOKI’S FRIEND SO THAT’S GOING TO BE A MESS????? And apparently Ramuda is having beef with one of them too and i’m??? SO CONFUSED AND WORRIED???

Also new division means 3 new seiyuu and new music style and I’m??? freaking out???? What are we getting?? how are we doing it??

And this is kinda highlighting how despite their beef the 4 main divisions are actually pretty close and all thanks to their leaders, and now they have a history with the division battle and Me Against the world,

but the Osaka divison?????? They... they are just new. Apparently all the Va acted in character super confused because what, and IT JUST

HOW WILL THAT WORK

IM ??? I WANNA KNOW MORE I WANT TO BE AT THE LIVE I WANNA TALK JAPANESE HELP

[icharchivist]

Rosho looks like Jakurai's cousin lololol

RIGHT?? AND RAMUDA IS WORRIED ABOUT HIM BEING HERE

IM JUST SAYING. JUST SAYING

THINGS ARE GONNA GO B A D

@rumii-rue replied to your post “Jiro said “Saburo” and “Kawaii” in the same sentence and now i’m angry...”

I may be wrong since I was half asleep when I listened to it but I think he was talking about how Saburo was a lot cuter when he was younger since he was more sweet with Jiro. You know, just like when he remembers little Saburo on BB's city drama track

aahh thank you you’re a blessing!!

it is very likely he was talking about past!Saburo with that in consideration.. he does mention something similar in the BBvMTC manga’s first few chapters too i think.

I’m just... those brothers make me sad. 

thanks for the idea of the translation at least!!!

[icharchivist]

GenDice is real. It can't be argued. ~ Haze

LDJFKLD I MEAN. I MEAN.

Haze this is a very bad plan to encourage me about that, i’m trying to keep in check about it, i know it doesn’t seem like it but i truly am trying, but next thing you’ll know i’ll end up crying again because,,, look,,, soulmates,,, soft,,, sweet sweet morons that means too much for each other,,,, i’m too weak for that. It’s hard not to read all the bullshit Gentaro comes up with to cling out to Dice and the way Dice can get viciously loyal to him defending him in every way and not think they,,, aren’t,,,, real,,,,, 

i’m just gonna cry a bit again they have completely and utterly destroyed me i-

[icharchivist]

People on twitter have been posting art of Jyushi, Rosho, Doppo, Dice and Hifumi calling them the "Crybaby Division" xD

DLFKDJFLKDFJDKFLJ OH MY GOD

Oh my everytime i wanted to counter “why x would be a crybaby” i remember a time they ended up being just that and yeah. yeah that’s true. 

In oposition to the old man division, crybaby division. 

this is amazing dfDKFJLDLFKDF  oh my g od.... poor them.... save them...

[icharchivist]

Okay but Kuko's solo...THOSE 80'S VIBES???

RIGHHHT OMG?? he sounds SO GOOD???? He has such a nice vibe to him i love it so much!!!

why are all of BAT’s songs so good!!! how unfair!! wow!!!

[icharchivist]

Jinguji Jakurai, 35, was found dead at a Denny's parking lot at 3am. According to witnesses, a pink gremlin and two other sketchy individuals were seen leaving the scene singing "My neck, My back" by Khia.

link of the song and I cannot, cANNOT stop laughing about this image 

I don’t know if i would hve managed to say something witty in reply to that except rest in pieces Sensei, but this song and imagining the Posse singing it is utterly destroying me, this is how we’re strolling in Shibuya

[icharchivist]

I'm glad we collectively agree. Ramuda can just overthrow the government. If it was overthrown before with Hypmics then Ramuda can do it again, right? FP seem to be the ones to go "At least this situation can't get any worse?" And then it does. Continuously. But honestly they're such a Disaster Division™ they just roll with it and it becomes expected. They actually end up going "What is the most crack head situation we can use as a diversion or bluff?" And use that over anything logical ~ Haze

*nods nods* indeed indeed!

And oh my god, right?! and I mean, Ramuda was definitly involved with the first overthrow if we trust the TDD manga, since he was already an agent of the current government as they were set into places, so if anyone knows how the government might work, or even how they planned their rebellion to start with, it’s Ramuda. 

I have like hundreds of headcanons about how specifically Ramuda was involved into it (especially bc i overread TOO MUCH in his “mad scientist” verse from Stella, like i mean he’s one of the first person we see who had control of a hypmic) but imo yeah, he must know a thing or two about how the current government overthrew the previous one and if anything he can carefully plan how to overthrow it if he’s willing.

And i’m cheering for him you go you pink disaster.

But yEAh completely agreed, but to be honest it especially makes me laugh because Ramuda and Gentaro are disasters, but they are... in a calculated way, in a way. Like I mean they’re both kinda into make belief, making up their identity, how they’re perceived. But at least they’re in control of how far they’re willing to go right? Like, they decide how much they’re going to play their parts.

And then we have Dice, who keeps ending up into illegal situations without thinking (the guy bET HIS LIFE for a hypmic for crying out loud), and he drags the rest of the team with him, and eVERYTIME a situation started to go wrong with FP it is because Dice rushed into something stupid without thinking and he has no control over it it’s just “well it seemed okay when i started it”

But at least the other two are just soft enough toward Dice (or well at least they both say that Dice’s habits are “interesting” even if it’s disastrous) that they just end up. sighing and go “this is so illegal but we’re so gonna help you”. 

And that’s what makes the most chaos out of it all. Ramuda and Gentaro’s skills are Terrible, yes. But they can keep them in check, like they COULD make it more calculated. But once Dice ends up dragging them with him? Well I Guess we’re going to be on the same level of Disaster to side with our boy. Dice throws out of the window any attempt to be calculated and now they’re just gonna disaster their way in and out of trouble.

I freaking love the posse so much and I hope Ramuda knows i’m grateful for the disaster he unleashed upon the world-

[icharchivist]

@nechrollomicon replied to your post “I need to know if Ramuda says “sex” or “unisex” though bc it’s killing...”

Unisex is like sex but with a degree. So he brags how much he get laid and how educated he is in one word

like... sex with a degree? how? :O being sexy went to school?

and.... that wouldn’t be unlike him to do that....

Anyway if you want to weigh in it’s at this timemark, but yeah. He’d do both..... that’s what scares me-
