Tiger & Bunny Week (Day 1)

Technically I'm late but uhhhhhhhhhhhhh

April 2: Favorite Character, Episode, Movie, and/or Song

Most people seem to be doing them all, but I'll be skipping movie since there's only 2 of them.

Favourite Character:

MY CRINGEFAIL SON IVAN!!!! I relate to him immensely, even his dynamic with Edward I'd say I can somewhat relate to with someone in my life. It's uncanny. He tries his best to be outgoing but anxiety and self esteem issues sure are fucking bitches, so he can only really do it behind a mask. Even in S2 whilst his whole outlook may have taken a bit of a rollback, that's honestly realistic, not everyone can just keep marching and continuously improving themselves, there are setbacks and holes you can fall into at times. I wish we knew more about his personal life beyond his backstory of getting bullied as a child + what vague stuff we have of his hero academy days, a lot of heroes suffer from this, however. His passion for his hobbies is also just like me. He's cringe but he is free, just like many of us wish to be. Runner up is Keith I love the Autistic dog man

Favourite Episode:

I gotta go with Sky's The Limit. The title is a very OH GEE WHOS FOCUS EPISODE IS THIS kind but genuinely it doesn't prepare you for the content. There's a wholeass lore drop, an intense fight scene with a robot, and of course Keith being Keith. It also puts into focus just how much pressure heroes are put under when it comes to the rankings, and second place apparently not being enough for Poseidon Line is a very corporate reality. It's go big or go home. The ending is also like OH MY GOD IM CRYING???? Like, we know Cis isn't very capable of behaving like a human, but Keith doesn't realise she's not human at all, he treats her as any other person and falls harder than an anvil for her despite their short time in contact. It makes me think that Cis had a potential to be something, someone more than she was initially made for. And these two are a bit of a guilty pleasure ship that me and like 2 other people in the west side seem to ship and yes I will be taking those "Keith is still lowkey in love with her even in S2 era" crumbs thank you-

Favourite Song:

Oh shit this is where it gets tricky. I have so many, so I'll split it into categories:

OP: Earth Diver ED: Pilot Character Song: GHHHAAAAAA DONT MAKE ME CHOOOOOSE Other supplementary Song: Orion Wo Nazoru Hero Cover

I can't really put to words for Earth Diver, but I really like how it starts and kinda soothes you into the song before it really kicks. The lyrics are also very passionately sung.

I really like the calmer tone of Pilot and even though the explicitness of the shippyness isn't as heavy as Aida, the subtlety honestly fits them more. The credits themselves are also just beautiful; the visual aspect of them hits immensely hard in ep 14 especially since you saw what could happen to their suits in the fight the episode prior, and they're both no longer in their prime. Closing it out as they stare at the sunset makes me emotional and Proud Fiesta I love you but goddamn why did you return for Episode 25 that was a fucking mood killer I stg.

I love a lot of the character songs, with the ones from Best Of Hero very enjoyable romps, especially Mikirezakura and Thanks and Thanks Again, the energy these two songs have makes you wanna coreograph something. Some other highlights are POWER OF JUSTICE and Aaa Hero Suit. (Also Hidden Heroism actually kinda sucks it tries to be Mikirezakura 2 and thus loses out on an identity of its own which is very disappointing).

I love the harmony of the heroes cover of Orion, I can really picture them all in recording booths singing next to each other...who's the cheering guy, though? I've listened to this cover so many times and the line the cheering guy seemingly sings just sounds like Hirata's Kotetsu, I don't get it. I get wanting to balance the lyrics between groups and characters evenly but that was an awkward way to do it.

Yugioh Stars cast tidbits #6

Not really related to the cast per say, but figured it fits in this label. I'm quite fallible to the phenomenon of making up AMVs in one's own head, and often i would also make up Openings for specific arcs or games or shows in general.

Like a lot. A bit too much honestly.

In the case of Stars, i have like 4 songs i picked out to make up imaginary OP sequences, each for their own arc. So why not list them here as well as the general Arcs?

Arc 1 i have "Orion Wo Nazoru" By Unison Square Garden, Tiger and Bunny's 1st op, cause one its a bop, two its got space related words in them, three i like the meaning of the lyrics a lot. It's the beginning of a new adventure for Yuji and the gang, with lots of fun mishaps and a strange mystery brewing in the horizon. Let's call it "Year 1" for now.

Arc 2 is "The Over" by Re-End, IBO Gundam Urh-Hunt's opening (its a weird side project for IBO Gundam that originated as a weird phone collection game that's becoming a proper anime project). I like the lyrics of 'moving on despite the bleakness in front of you,' it sounds upbeat, and it fits the increasing tension and incoming threat without being too dour. Yuji and the gang are about to face off against the main villains of the story, or at the very least a splinter cell by them. The "VS Jupiter" arc due to the main rival, Hyoma, taking stage here.

Arc 3 is "Perfect Triumph" the insert song/credits song for Kamen Rider Build's v-cinema/post series movie New World: Kamen Rider Grease. This arc is the mandated tournament arc with heaps of e m o t i o a l d a m a g e for the cast and more of the villain group finally taking control of the situation as the arc continues forward, but still having hope and determination to pull through. Yuji and the gang are gonna have to buckle up for the incoming trials for these, especially Jun and Kenta as their issues are brought to the forefront. "Rising Stars Tournament" seems like a nice name for the arc, kinda like the GX tournament from S2 of GX.

Final Arc is "Strength" from Abingdon boys school, one of Soul Eater's EDS. fitting for the final arc being an emotional gauntlet for the main gang, as the resolutions for their journeys are finally achieved. "Paradise" seems like a good name for the arc considering the main villain group's end goal of 'achieving true paradise' through unscrupulous means.

And that's the mental OPs I've picked for my imaginary anime about people playing a children's card game, thank you for listening to my rambling held at gunpoint.

"In a night deep as this,

where we're tracing the Orion constellation,

We want to be connected. We want to be separated.

In short, we're dubious and muddled up.

Wishing for a brand-new future,

if only we could weave out,

some marvelous never-before-heard words,

then even time will stop.."

--------

"In a night deep as this,

where we're tracing the Orion constellation,

I am here, and you're here,

and that is more than enough to make me grateful.

Wishing for a brand-new future,

if only we could weave out

some marvelous never-before-heard words,

then we shall let them fly into the sky.."

----------

~ Orion wo Nazoru ("Tracing the Orion") by: UNISON SQUARE GARDEN for the anime: "TIGER & BUNNY".

Drawing these two gays again. I might do an image for "MISSING LINK" by NOVELS, which was the OP theme for the second half of season 1.

I am still currently in Tiger & Bunny hell, obviously.

The second image reminds me of a fanfic cover you see on a website like Wattpad or Fanfiction.net. That wasn't intentional.

Background from TLK, but was posted by sophiedog14 on Deviantart.

I also referenced a My Pride fanart piece that is made by Pandochy on Twitter.

Orion wo Nazoru (Hero Version)

[randombubblegum]

Ahh I haven’t seen oofuri but I just listened to the song and loved it and I know Galileo Galileo from anohana!! I added oofuri to my list! You said you have a ton on your iTunes, what are some other favorites?

YAAAA oh my god anohana….. also an amazing anime and aoi shiori by galileo galilei makes me like crazy emotional its sooo good….. yesss watch oofuri tho!!! for real. its probably the defining anime of my life and has had too big an effect on me to summarize succinctly lol ANYWAY, uh, okay im taking a trip down memory lane/through my teenage psyche here:

ao no exorcist - reversi, core pride (loveeee UVERworld)

chihayafuru - youthful

durarara! - trust me

moyashimon - curriculum (this is such a niche anime but i imprinted on this song SO hard)

natsume yuujinchou - absolutely every single op/ed from this anime. every single one. but especially natsu yuuzora, boku ni dekiru koto, ima kono toki, akane sasu, and ano hi time machine

nichijou - hyadain no kakakata kataomoi (oh my god everyone MUST watch nichijou)

no. 6 - rokutousei no yoru

ohshc - sakura kiss (EVERYONE KNOWS THIS SONG DOESNT MAKE IT SLAP LESS THO)

oofuri - all of the op/eds for real. for real

tiger and bunny - orion wo nazoru (t&b is about to get a new season after a decade RIGHT NOW 15yo sydney is shitting herself btw)

tsuritama - tsuredzure monochrome, sora mo toberu hazu (everyone has to watch tsuritama too by law)

okay im gonna stop bc this is already a lot LMAO but legit this was like my whole youth all i did was…. watch anime and then get into japanese bands from the anime i loved…… these arent the biggest animes of the time or even necessarily my favorites (tho many of them are) just what was special to me and what songs i listened to over the years u__u i dont watch anime much anymore which is actually kind of tragic since it was such a big part of my life for so long i wanna get back into it!!!! but until then i present u with this time capsule from my most formative years

in the city covered with lights (A Tiger & Bunny fanmix)

[Image Description: A still screenshot of Sternbild at night. Fireworks, high beams, and stage pyrotechnics light up the night sky. To the left of the skyline is Lady Justice and to the right is a title, all lowercase with black lettering and a yellow glow around it "in the city covered with lights". Underneath that title there is a smaller title in a more scrawly, white font "A Tiger & Bunny fanmix"]

in the city covered with lights: songs to dance your way to Sternbild with while you’re doing your chores at 2am. A (mostly) heroic mix featuring all your Hero TV favorites plus a generous helping of Tiger/Bunny :)

Spotify | YouTube

Playlist title comes from “Harmonized Finale” by Unison Square Garden, the ending song of The Rising.

Regarding “僕はﾋｰﾛｰ”(aka. I am a Hero), you can probably get the gist of it without the lyrics, but if you want them they can be found here in Japanese. I suggest plugging them into Google translate rather than using the auto translation on the page as it came out especially incomprehensible when I did that for some reason. Unfortunately, a full, clean version of the song is not available on YouTube, so I highly recommend giving the full version a listen on Spotify.

Regarding “You are the HERO!!,” The Best of Hero Album is tragically not on Spotify, but you can listen to the whole thing, including this song on SumireSoul’s YouTube channel. The lyrics are actually pretty fitting and the character cameos are synchronized to particular lines so I recommend google translating them.

4/3/21 Edit: Now it is! And I added Orion wo Nazoru (Hero Version) to the very end because it’s so uplifting it purifies my soul and waters my crops. T.T

[ tell me why you followed my blog and tell me what made you stay meme ]

usually in my case, I hardly follow first so I'm thankful for any blog who'd follow mine! And I'm most especially grateful that we've been writing/talking/plotting together, especially in the T&B verse because holy moly, that became its own thing and it has its endless supply of lore expansion packs. Not to mention, the chemistry between our muses? Pure serotonin for the soul. Super happy I did that random post about vibing with Orion wo Nazoru, and that's how we vibed immediately, and the rest is history. Keep being awesome!! <3

tell  me  why  you  followed  my  blog  and  tell  me  what  made  you  stay. || accepting!

//ooc. Hello Shai, I'm kind of chuckling 'cause I just sent you something. So, that already has all my words except for this 'cause I ran out of room! LMAO.

Thank you for being here and thank you for giving me a chance! I'm really thankful to have met you, it's been a while since I've felt really invested in writing LMAO. I'm always super looking forward to our conversations and your reactions.
