Best Underrated Anime Group I Round 1: #I2 vs #I7
#I2: Three girls start a fun club and get into shit
During recess, Olivia, a foreign transfer student who doesn’t know English, plays a game of “look-the-other-way” with Hanako Honda, a loudmouthed airhead. Their rowdy behavior spurs the ire of Kasumi Nomura, a deadpan loner constantly teased by her older sister for her tendency to lose games.
Not willing to compete, Kasumi declines Olivia’s offer to join the fun, but eventually gets involved anyway and dispenses her own brand of mischief. Soon, a strange friendship blossoms between the peculiar trio, and they decide to form the “Pastime Club,” where they are free to resume their daily hijinks.
Tumblr media
#I7: Older brother plays catch-up with his younger sibling
On a fateful summer night in 2006, Mutta Nanba and his younger brother Hibito witness what they believe to be a UFO flying toward the Moon. This impressing and unusual phenomenon leads both siblings vowing to become astronauts, with Hibito aiming for the Moon and Mutta, convinced that the eldest brother has to be one step ahead, for Mars.
Now an adult, life hasn't turned out how Mutta had pictured it: he is diligently working in an automotive company, whereas Hibito is on his way to be the very first Japanese man to step on the Moon. However, after losing his job, Mutta is presented with an unexpected opportunity to catch up to his younger brother when the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency, commonly known as JAXA, accepts his application to participate in the next astronaut selection. Despite self-doubts about his prospects, Mutta is unwilling to waste this chance of a lifetime, and thus embarks on an ambitious journey to fulfill the promise made 19 years ago.
Titles, propagandas, trailers, and poll under the cut!
Tumblr media
#I2: Asobi Asobase - workshop of fun -
youtube
Propaganda:
It’s really funny and hilarious and kind of hard to pin down the demographic and who they were trying to get to watch the show because the girls uniforms are ugly, they make ugly faces and funny noises, and one of the main characters has a strong fear/disgust of men. I live and then I had a really fun time watching it because it’s so out of pocket with the stuff they do.
Trigger Warnings: Gender Identity/Sexuality Discrimination.
One character is implied to be a trans girl and is called out for it by the main characters in a way that suggests they are uncomfortable with it. Her boyfriend is okay with it, though.
Tumblr media
#I7: Space Brothers (Uchuu Kyoudai)
youtube
Propaganda:
Have you ever wanted to see adults pursue their dreams in anime, even those they abandoned along the way? Do you enjoy space or the arduous process to become an astronaut? Do you like characters being so well-rounded while still being positive even if they fail? Well, this series is exactly that, but with a touch more wholesomeness. Ranging from comedic moments to heartfelt revelations, this series feels so grounded in reality while still having that air of positivity around it, it just motivates you to follow any dream you might currently have. It is a long journey, almost 100 episodes, but it uses it well to flesh out not only the main pair, but many of the side characters, each coming from different backgrounds. A very character driven story that sometimes doesn’t shy in mentioning the risks of space exploration, but also presents us with the marvel and importance of it.
Trigger Warnings: Discussion of possible death. It’s not in depth, but there were moments where they did discuss the possibility of death since it has a high risk of happening in space.

Yuletide 2023
Dear Yuletide Writer...
It's that time of year again! Hello, and thank you in advance for writing for me—I am super-excited to see more fic in any of these fandoms! In this letter I’m including general things I like to read, and then some specific likes and prompts for each fandom, but I will be genuinely delighted by anything for my requested characters, so if you have your own ideas, please be my guest to write what your heart desires. And if you’re looking to treat, I am always keen for multiple cakes!
AO3: Triss_Hawkeye
I Do Not Want: non-con, incest, porn without plot*, omegaverse, pregnancy, mommy/daddy kink, underage, soulmate AUs, mundane/modern-day AUs for non-modern-day settings
*I’m not opposed to characters having sex, but I don’t want it to be the focus of the fic and would prefer it non-explicit.
I enjoy: friendships and familial relationships, deep platonic and it’s-complicated partnerships, weird power dynamics, antagonistic friendships, friendly rivalries, strange intersections of violence and intimacy, navigating mixed-orientation relationships, mentor&protégé dynamics, established couples, polyamory, asexual characters, complicated gender feels. World-building, case-fic, adventurous romps, backstory, character development, atmospheric writing, nonlinear storytelling, all kinds of tenses and POVs, epistolary or experimental formats, unreliable narrators, bittersweet endings, inevitable tragedies. Moral dilemmas, angst, pining, misunderstandings, trust and loyalty, mutual head-over-heels-in-love, interesting social dynamics, culture clashes, friendly arguments. Science fiction, stories set in space, stories about music, horror, religious themes.
My nominated fandoms: Space Brothers, Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex, The Hermux Tantamoq Adventures, Ya Boy Kongming!, Transistor, Wu Ming | Hidden Blade
Space Brothers
Nominated characters: Nanba Mutta, Nanba Hibito, Brian Jay
Relationships I like: Mutta & Hibito brotherhood, Brian & Hibito mentorship, Mutta &/ Serika, friendships all round
Space Brothers is a 99-episode anime about a man who becomes an astronaut in the footsteps of his younger brother—the anime can be found on Crunchyroll (the manga is on-going and published by Kodansha, but is generally less accessible, so while I am up-to-date with the manga, I'm only requesting the anime—but feel free to write as up-to-date as you like). I love sibling relationships, and I love space! I especially love Space Brothers’ in-depth exploration of the long process of becoming an astronaut, dealing with and overcoming trauma, and how people can help each other through difficulties. I adore the storytelling style of flashbacks to a past event informing the emotional journey happening in the present. I’ve nominated both Nanba brothers and also Brian Jay, but if you’d rather write a story that focuses on just one of those characters, that’s fine! And feel free to include any other wider cast members you like. No shipping Hibito with Olga beyond a one-sided crush on her part, please, but otherwise anything goes!
Prompts:
Mutta and Hibito finally meet on the Moon! I’m always interested in takes on how that meeting might go down, and what day-to-day life is like for them up there.
An incident during Hibito’s training as Brian’s backup, that once again becomes relevant as Hibito is training in Russia to return to the Moon. Maybe a strange scenario that Brian and Hibito train together that comes back up when he trains with the Soyuz module. Or maybe Hibito imagines what it would be like if Brian were training with him in Russia?
Missing scenes from Brian’s time on the Moon, and ways in which Hibito is unknowingly retracing his steps - or doing things differently! Could be how they interact with the Moonbase, something small that Brian changed or left behind and that Hibito encounters later.
Mutta’s canonically a trumpet player - I’d love a fic about music while training together, making improvised instruments in downtime in the simulation habitats, or the brothers (or other characters) sending each other playlists for encouragement.
The story arc with Hibito’s accident on the Moon is still my favourite - anything set in that time or the aftermath, from the perspective of either brother (or maybe Brian Jay, looking on from the afterlife - or the perspective of the oxygen generator!)
The Nanba brothers (and whoever else you might want to include with them) go on a road trip or camping or some other adventure. Hijinks ensue!
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
Nominated characters: Motoko Kusanagi, Batou, Togusa, Hideo Kuze
Relationships I like: Hideo Kuze &/ Motoko Kusanagi, Batou &/ Motoko Kusanagi, Batou &/ Togusa (I like all of these as either platonic or romantic relationships)
Stand Alone Complex (which you can apparently watch for free on Adult Swim?? amazing!) is my favourite iteration of the Ghost in the Shell franchise—I love the convoluted mind-bending plots, examinations of collective human behaviour in the context of an ever more connected society, heroes grappling with being agents of a flawed and corrupt system and anti-villains with noble motives, and the deep, complicated closeness of many of the characters. Given Kuze’s on the list, I’d particularly love a 2nd Gig-based story, but don’t feel that you need to stay in that season if you have other ideas, and I'm happy with any subset of the nominated characters. I’m not as big a fan of SAC:2045 as I am the rest of it, but I’ve seen it and it’s in the continuity, so I’d be happy to receive something set in that part of the timeline too if you like. 
Prompts:
Post-2nd Gig, the Major goes searching for Kuze in the net - did he succeed in going on ahead and uploading his consciousness? Did he maintain his individuality, or become something other than human?
A canon-divergent AU in which the Major encounters Kuze under different circumstances that sees them being able to work together to achieve justice for the refugees.
A look into Togusa’s family life outside of his Section 9 work. Does Batou ever interact with them? What is his partnership with his wife like compared to his partnership with Batou? 
Motoko, Batou, and Kuze, all being full-prosthetic and ex-military, have similar circumstances yet different attitudes to what it means to be human and embodied, and I’d love to see some philosophical exploration of that. What does having a body, having a face, actually mean to them? Do you have gender thinky-thoughts about any of these characters? I would love to read them!
Section 9 case-fic that explores more of the setting. I’d particularly be interested in something that explores how religion has adapted to the reality of cyberization (be it Shinto, Japanese Buddhism, or something else).
There’s something very unsettling about your very perceptions being vulnerable to hacking, and not being able to trust your own senses any more—the potential for losing track of reality, places that seem both less real and more real, like the shop where the Major encountered her and Kuze’s old bodies. Would love something that leans into more of the potential for psychological horror in this setting.
The Hermux Tantamoq Adventures
Nominated characters: Any (Hermux Tantamoq, Linka Perflinger, Mirrin Stentrill, Tucka Mertslin)
Relationships I like: Hermux/Linka, Hermux & Mirrin, Mirrin/Birch, Tucka/increasingly inadvisable villainous love interests, Hermux & Tucka as best nemeses
The Hermux Tantamoq Adventures are a series of four children’s novels (beginning with Time Stops For No Mouse) featuring watchmaker turned amateur detective Hermux Tantamoq, an everymouse in the eccentric rodent high society of Pinchester, solving mysteries and getting embroiled in adventures, trying to figure out how to confess his feelings for the dashing aviatrix and adventuress Linka Perflinger, and clumsily navigating the world of high fashion, scandalous art, and unscrupulous academia that he is surrounded in by his friends and neighbours. I love how vibrant and bizarre Pinchester life is, and the way the stories weave between the city and various escapades in jungles or ancient tombs or snooty seaside towns. If writing for Tucka, I think part of her charm is that she keeps getting away with the most heinous of things, and I would rather that she does not get any kind of comeuppance, but lives on to endlessly frustrate our protagonists in the future!
Prompts:
I’d love some case-fic with Hermux and friends solving a new mystery—maybe something related to the film industry. Old-timey Hollywood meets some kind of conspiracy and scandal (with Linka flying plane stunts!) Or at long last Hermux gets the dream commission of giving the Choo-Choo Cheesery model trains a tune-up, only to find that they’ve been used to pass around hidden messages between members of a shady organisation.
Linka is a professional adventuress and daredevil! I’d love to see more of her own adventures pre-canon, or taking Hermux along with her for a mission (with Hermux joyfully supporting his terrifyingly competent crush/fiancee/wife). 
The second book brings up a lot of interesting worldbuilding related to how mice cemented their place as the most civilised of rodents through the underhanded actions of a particular dynasty. I would love more exploration of the place in society held by other species, and the work to undo the legacy of mouse supremacy. Also, whatever happened to the cats after they were overthrown? Did they really all die out, or are there still some out there to be found by intrepid adventurers?
More on the history between Mirrin Stentrill and Tucka Mertslin. Was there ever a time that Tucka really was the bright and hopeful student that Mirrin thought she was? How did their relationships with art develop up to the point at which they fell out? Maybe they do a reluctant arty team-up for publicity reasons and have to figure out how to work together without going completely mad? 
Gosh, I love Tucka so much. The ultimate girlboss. She is completely unhinged and always steals whatever scene she’s in with her eye-gouging fashion and awful personality. I would love more from her perspective, on her ruthless pursuit of success and the horrible little man who keeps getting in her way.
Ya Boy Kongming!
Nominated characters: Zhuge Kongming
Relationships I like: Kongming & Eiko platonic devotion, Kongming &/ Kobayashi, Eiko/Nanami, Eiko and Kabe besties
This is a delightfully bonkers on-going manga published by Kodansha and 12-episode anime available on HIDIVE (I'm more-or-less up to date on the manga, but don't mind if you just want to write in what's been covered by the anime so far). I love the absolutely outlandish premise of legendary ancient Chinese military strategist reincarnated into the party life of modern-day Shibuya and becoming personal tactician to an aspiring singer… actually played in a heartwarmingly sincere fashion, with Eiko gaining self-confidence and a team of supporters, and Kongming getting to enjoy the life without war he always wished for while still putting his strategic mind to good use. I love that while Kongming is a fish out of temporal water, his smarts and experience mean that he adapts to modern day life well (if eccentrically to outside observers), and while there’s some lovely angst and grief over the past, he’s also very happy to throw himself heart and soul into the modern-day music industry and embraces this time period as his own. It’s wonderful and bizarre and utterly delightful. I just want more of this guy, with whoever you like from the rest of the ensemble thrown in.
Prompts:
Having started out as a military strategist, Kongming doesn’t shy away from strategies that are somewhat ruthless and ethically dubious, and always seems to have contingencies to hand, some of which may be far more brutal still. It’s mostly played for laughs, but also I want to see Kongming with the gloves off if Eiko is seriously threatened in some way. 
I love the idea of Kongming becoming such a known quantity in Shibuya, and generally regarded as a cool guy who’s fun to party with, that everyone just kinda rolls with it and there’s a sort of reverse kayfabe going on. Oh that guy? Oh yeah, he’s the legendary strategist Kongming, he lives here now. I’d love this getting explained to an outsider POV, or Kongming’s own feelings on being almost-but-not-quite seen for who he is.
Kongming/Kobayashi - I ship these two an unreasonable amount. I love how much Kobayashi admires Kongming (even when he’s usually the one to fully comprehend just how shady some of Kongming’s schemes are), and how he’s the one who most fully knows him (or at least has the potential to), and gets closest to accepting his true identity. And for Kongming’s part, I think he appreciates someone he can talk to about the past, and who is as equally invested in seeing Eiko succeed as he is. Also they both live at the club OH MY GOD THEY WERE ROOMMATES
Since last year I have been through an entire Romance of the Three Kingdoms hyperfixation so if you want to incorporate historical flashbacks, parallels to other 3K stories, other transmigrators, or whatever else you like from it, please do! Particular favourite characters are Zhao Yun, Zhou Yu, and Lady Huang.
Three Kingdoms tale-telling: here’s how Kabetaijin or Kobayashi or Sekitoba tells it (everyone knows this (Eiko: I don’t????)), here’s how Kongming tells it (I was literally there), here’s what really happened (no one here is a reliable narrator).
Transistor
Nominated characters: Red
Relationships I like: Red/Mr Nobody, Red/Sybil, Asher/Grant
Transistor is the second game from Supergiant Games, and can be played on a variety of platforms. I love the initial setting of this game, this beautiful yet ephemeral, dream-like semi-virtual world, ever changing to the whim of its inhabitants, who have this almost religious reverence of the city they inhabit. I love the character of Red, and the game’s playing around with her agency, in which the voiceless character is the one ultimately making the decisions of what to do, despite the advice of the narrator (and/or the will of the player!) I love the well-intentioned-extremism-gone-horribly-wrong of the antagonists as well, and I’d love to explore more the problems they were trying to solve in an awful way that ultimately backfired in enormous tragedy.
Prompts:
It’s clear from Red’s songs that while she loves Cloudbank, she also has her own complicated feelings about its society. I’d love a story exploring her life before the game and her own frustrations with the city. What is it like to live somewhere where everything changes at the whim of the majority? If you want to lean into the worldbuilding, please do so!
Villain AU in which Red, instead of being a target for the Transistor, becomes a member of the Camerata inner circle. What is her dynamic with the rest of the group? Could she find a better way to achieve their goals?
What the heck is the Country? It’s euphemistic, yet seems to indicate less of a death and more like a permanent retirement or logging out. But what does that mean for Red, who sings about it like maybe it’s something she’d like to do?
What if Red had stayed and rebuilt Cloudbank? Could she have restored the city? If given the power, could she have fixed its problems? Or would it inevitably end the same way, when it came down to it?
One of Red’s concerts, or an encounter with her, from the perspective of a Cloudbank resident or one of the minor characters. How is she seen by her fans? How does she interact with them, and with the people of Cloudbank?
Wu Ming | Hidden Blade
Nominated characters: Secretary Ye
Relationships I like: Director He &/ Secretary Ye, Director He/Ms Chen/Secretary Ye, Officer Watanabe & Secretary Ye fucked up mentorship, Secretary Ye & Captain Wang fucked up friendship
Wu Ming (Hidden Blade), starring the stunning combination of Tony Leung and Wang Yibo, is an intense, visually gorgeous, somewhat non-linear film about Communist party spies working to undermine the Wang Jingwei regime, the Japanese puppet government during WWII. While Director He is secretly passing messages in pastry boxes, his vicious and moody underling Secretary Ye is doing bloody work and ingratiating himself with Officer Watanabe, the Japanese overseer of their department. When Director He's spying is discovered, Ye is sent after him, culminating in a mesmerising, no-holds-barred, knock-down-drag-out fight between the two of them, landing He in prison and Ye as Watanabe's trusted confidante. I love the glimpses we get into the intense trust and suspicion between different sets of characters, and the moments when the masks come off. If you're interested in writing for this, go watch the movie before reading my prompts to get the full effect of the twists and turns of the story.
Prompts:
Ye is such an interesting little chameleon. We see him interact closely with a number of different characters, in different languages, with different dynamics in play. Only right at the end does it seem like the real man is allowed into the light, so I'm really interested in his interiority through the story, how he compartmentalises and justifies everything he does.
We find out late in the film that Director He and Secretary Ye are on the same side, and maybe the only other one in their entire situation that they can trust and who truly knows them. I'd love to see what kind of relationship develops out of that proximity, whether it's a fucked-up kind of co-dependence or pining for something they can't have because the danger is too great. Especially a relationship with the kind of trust that allows them to get into the kind of no-holds-barred fight that they do, really messing each other up but stopping short of killing the other.
Ms Chen is really interesting here because she and Director He have been married and working together all this time yet never coming into contact to preserve his cover. Secretary Ye doesn't seem to be aware of who she is during the fight, but then that could be part of the act. It's an interesting moment when he buys her coffee at the end—an apology, perhaps, or an invitation into a friendship? Did they meet or know each other before everyone went undercover? Wang Yibo's managed to be in couple of short films with interesting chemistry with Zhou Xun now, so it's almost a shame they didn't directly interact in this movie, but I'd love to see her looped in to whatever Ye and He have going on.
I also love what almost amounts to a seduction of Watanabe on Secretary Ye's part, only for more of a mentorship or even pseudo-parental role. Ye makes himself into the last person that Watanabe can truly trust, and only turns on him right at the end when he has lost everything, in a darkly satisfying way. I'd love a closer look into that relationship.
Thanks again, dear writer! I very much look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Best Underrated Anime Group I Round 3: #I4 vs #I7
#I4: Colorblind witch meets her granny’s friends by time travel
#I7: Older brother plays catch-up with his younger sibling
Details and poll under the cut!
Tumblr media
#I4: Iroduku: The World in Colors
youtube
Summary:
Despite the kaleidoscopic magic ingrained in everyday life, Hitomi Tsukishiro's monochrome world is deprived of emotion and feeling. On a night as black and white as any other, amidst the fireworks spreading across the sky, Hitomi's grandmother Kohaku conjures a spell, for which she has been harnessing the moon's light for 60 years, to send Hitomi back in time to the year 2018 when Kohaku was in high school.
Hitomi's mission seems unclear, but her grandmother assures her that she will know when she gets there. Following a trip through time aboard a train driven by a strange yellow creature, Hitomi finds herself in stoic artist Yuito Aoi's room, and his drawings flood her world with color. What is Hitomi's purpose there, and why do Yuito's drawings return such breathtaking color to her drab world?
Propaganda:
It’s the kind of show I only watched once, but it stayed with me to this day. It has a unique story that, despite having supernatural elements, feels grounded in human emotions the most. A rare but solid example of magical realism.
The premise is so original, yet very easy to grasp from a start. The time-travel and magic simply lay a groundwork for the story to carry on. If you were ever frustrated by how in supernatural shows there isn’t enough time to explore characters’ emotional depth bc plot, then this anime will be a delightful breather for you. Because the whole show is about the main character’s healing process, learning to overcome her fears, opening up to others… It’s a journey of a lonely, broken person who finds meaning to her life in a distant timeline. And it’s wonderful and painful on all levels.
The visuals, animation, background art are all stunning. Usage of colour is meaningful, to portray heroine’s colourblindess with proper weight. The show isn’t black/white for the viewers, but when she sees colours, they truly make them shine. Soundtrack wise, ending song is heartbreakingly beautiful and encapsulates the feeling of the whole series perfectly.
TL;DR: It's magical but not intense. Sad but comforting.
Trigger Warnings: Not stated.
