Happy Birthday

Ichinose Shiori (7th December)

Special 7: Special Crime Investigation Unit

[metalfaceirl]

seems like something he'd do

[ciaossu-imagines]

Oddly enough, I don’t have too many polyships for Special 7! I flipped a coin between the two I do have and used this prompt for headcanons on a polyship between Ichinose/Reader/Seiji! I hope ya’ll enjoy, my loves!

Who is the one who would go up to a random elder in a coffeeshop and ask them about their life?

This would have to be Seiji and possibly you. Seiji has a great deal of respect for his elders and, while a bit awkward, he really is more of an extrovert than Ichinose, who really does try to avoid a lot of small talk and, unless he had to, wouldn’t really approach a stranger.

Who hates checking out books because checking them out means interacting, and that is always awkward?

This is Ichinose. He doesn’t like having to check out books, partially because of the interacting but mostly because he has a bad habit of never returning them on time. Sometimes he forgets but really, it’s normally because his life gets really busy and his schedule is not at all regular.

Who is the one to use toilet paper as tissues and carries it around all day?

Ichinose does this and sometimes Seiji and possibly even you. Seiji prefers to have tissues on hand and he tries really hard to remember to grab one of those pocket packs, but he sometimes forgets to put them in his pocket and he’d rather use toilet paper than just sneeze without some sort of coverage. Ichinose is too cheap to buy tissues when toilet paper does the exact same job.

Who is the one who carries around $100 just in case there is some apocalypse, and they need to buy gear?

This would have to be you. Seiji carries a modest amount of cash in case of an emergency, but the thought of a potential apocalypse doesn’t really occur to him as something to carry cash for. Ichinose prefers card to cash and only has small bills, which is also a great excuse for not being stuck with the bill when he gets roped into dinners out with everyone from work.

Who is the one who points with their chin?

Ichinose is really bad for this, no matter how many times Seiji or you or anyone else tells him it’s rude. He’ll try for a little bit not to do it if it’s you that points it out, but he only lasts so long because it’s just force of habit to him, honestly.

Who is the one who takes pictures of their food and instagrams it?

It would have to be you. Ichinose has no social media presence whatsoever and really kind of finds the whole idea of it a bother, while Seiji takes horrible pictures and really just wants to eat his food and enjoy it.

Who is the one who reads fanfiction daily?

This is another one that is mostly you. You can get Ichinose into fanfiction though, if you introduce it to him for something you know he enjoys or a show you watch together. He’ll act like he’s not at all interested but reads any fics you send him, initially just to see why you enjoy them so much and later because he kind of begins to really enjoy them too.

Who is the one to write fanfiction?

It would have to be you, if you write fanfiction, or nobody.

Who is the one who cosplays?

While you can convince Ichinose to read fanfic with you, Seiji would be the one who is totally okay with cosplaying with you. It seems fun to him, and it makes you happy and he’s happy to be able to just take part in one of your hobbies.

Who is the one who likes to quote movies, books, and songs in conversations?

I feel like Ichinose quotes obscure shit out of the blue, though infrequently, just to kind of see if anyone will get it or to be mildly annoying.

Who is the one to burst out into song randomly?

This would have to be you. Ichinose tends to whistle more often though, especially while doing domestic chores. Seiji can and will sing if requested but he doesn’t really enjoy it and honestly isn’t overly fantastic at it.

Who is the one who secretly uses their neighbour’s WiFi?

Secretly? Not so much. Ichinose will readily admit he’s been stealing Wi-Fi from his neighbour for years. Why not? They’re already paying for it, he doesn’t want to pay for it, and to him it’s not really hurting anything.

Who is the one who safety pins friendship bracelet strings to their clothing so they could have something to do if bored?

This would have to be you or nobody. If it is something you’d do, my lovely reader, I feel like Seiji would be so down for making friendship bracelets with you and would happily wear any that you made him. Hell, even Ichinose wears the ones you make him, if only to make you happy.

Who is the one who played/plays an obscure instrument just to be different?

I personally don’t headcanon Seiji as playing any instrument and don’t know if the harmonica counts as an obscure instrument, because that’s what I headcanon Ichinose being able to play.

Who is the one who puts bajillions of stickers on their door/wall?

Seiji used to do this during his preteen years but did grow out of it like most people grow out of their phases. If you like to do it, he’ll gift you stickers for your collection but personally, he thinks it’s a bit childish. Ichinose plain out doesn’t care either way. If they make you happy and they’re not hurting anyone, go all for it, in his opinion.

Who is the one who likes to rewatch the same movies?

Both Seiji and Ichinose fall into this. They’re both a little boring in that way. They have their favourite shows or movies and because their work schedules don’t leave them a lot of time, they find themselves watching things they already know they like instead of potentially wasting time on something that they don’t enjoy.

Who is the one who uses bootlegs to watch their favourite movies/TV shows?

Okay, but Bellemer is great at finding bootlegs and supplies Ichinose and you with them if you want them. To Seiji, it’s too much like stealing and he’ll prefer paying for television or outright buying DVD’s and he’ll always have a brief frown on his face whenever you or Ichinose use bootlegs.

Who is the one that writes on their arm to remind themselves to do something?

Neither man does this. Ichinose actually has a pretty amazing memory and doesn’t really forget things too often while Seiji uses a day planner or a calendar app.

Who is the one who owns dozens of pencils but is too lazy to sharpen them?

I feel like Seiji goes through pencils quickly but not because he’s lazy and doesn’t want to sharpen them but because he breaks them fairly quickly or ends up misplacing them or lends them to people who never return them.

Who is the one who uses YouTube for their music because they don’t want to buy/download anything?

Oh, but this is another way that Ichinose is cheap. He doesn’t get paying for a music subscription when YouTube has the music he wants to listen to on there for free, with only the minor inconvenience of the occasional ad.

Who is the one who always wears the same shoes?

You would expect that this would be Ichinose but it’s really not. It’s either Seiji or you. Seiji has two sets of shoes exactly, dress shoes for work and more casual and quite beat up sneakers for his days off. Ichinose actually owns more shoes than him but that’s only because Ichinose has bad feet…his arch is weird and it’s hard to find good shoes for his feet, so he tends to grab shoes whenever he can find good pairs that keep his feet comfortable and don’t hurt.

Who is the one to do asks like this?

It’s probably you, though both men would be good sports about doing them with you if you ever ask them to.

Special 7: Special Crime Investigation Unit

Mini-Review: Special 7: Special Crime Investigation Unit

In a modern world where humans, vampires, elves and dwarves live together, rookie cop Seiji Nanatsuki joins the Special 7, a small anti-terrorism police unit whose cases sometimes run toward the supernatural, and whose members have their own secrets and trauma.

In my never-ending quest to find more fun mystery shows since Kindaichi Returns isn’t putting out new episodes, I’ll try just about anything, even if this fall 2019 show was more police procedural than mystery. And it was interesting! The idea of a modern world almost identical to our own except these other mythological races are also mixed in the regular population? Cool!

So first of all, it’s only 12 episodes, so not a lot of story time--so there’s one main story: the terrorist group they’ve been trying to stamp out is gearing up for some large attack, and the team has to deal with several smaller incidents in the lead-up. The connection runs deep: the rookie only became a cop because 9 years earlier he was rescued from another one of the attacks by the now-former partner of...his new partner.

The characters are interesting, but sadly we never really delve into what makes, for example, a vampire a vampire. Does Akane do anything vampiric other than be really fast and good with a sword? What does being a dwarf, or an elf, really mean beyond being hairier and having pointier ears than humans, respectively?

Overall, it’s a good way to pass the time. Maybe it’s not a series everyone is talking about, but it picks up the cop-detective-duo formula and stays within expected tropes. And I think the characters, for all that the character types are pretty  easy to pick out, were generally likable, and I’d definitely enjoy a second season.

Verdict

English dub? Yes, but only on Funimation, where I didn’t watch

Visuals: Decent, though I especially like the bolder lines and limited colors of the opening (seen in the last gif above). Compared to a lot of the younger shows I’ve watched recently, this was a nice break by having older characters with longer lines and bodies.

Worth watching? Do you like police shows? Do you like the general earnest shounen protagonist and wouldn’t mind seeing that enthusiastic believer of justice in an adult body? Then probably yes. I’d like a second season, and I have more than a few Thoughts on how quickly this wrapped up, but I don’t regret watching. That said, it never touches on the different races or delves much into the other characters’ lives, which I think is a wasted opportunity.

Where to watch (USA, as of April 2020): Hulu (sub), Funimation (sub and dub)

Anime spotlight - Special 7: Special Crime Investigation Unit

I really wanted to like this anime, its had a good premise, attractive character designs and a world where supernatural beings and human work together in a special unit. But alas it wasted its good points on bland personalities and a very bland paint by numbers generic plot.

It follow natsume who Nine years ago, he survived a terrorist attack on an airport because a detective delayed the terrorists and let him escape. He wished to be like him and so became a detective. He seems to have some type of magical ability that he acquired at the airport bombing that he is not fully aware of yet.

I thought magical terrorists would be more exciting along with humans, vampires and elves all sharing a society. But its wasn’t dark or gritty and was just generic, not a lot of action or tension.

The elf guy was hot though!
