Another anon. Regarding the ship ask I think it should be acknowledged that skin color and sex is also a reason as to why the ships are popular. 2 light skinned guys among a cast of darker skinned characters? 1 of them being canonically Japanese? And the other ship with a light dark skinned boy around the same age. All being male. Oh yeah ppl are fetishizing the hell out of the characters. A (This is in no way meant to be rude to you, just pointing it out)

I mean… “Cast of darker skinned characters” isn’t really accurate unless you’re including the alien characters like the Galra. Until Season 7, there were only two major characters darker than Lance, Hunk and Allura, both of whom are shipped as well, although I agree that Hunk is under-appreciated (but again, that’s in part because the …

What do you think the purpose of the first chapter is in the Noragami narrative?

If I’m recalling my manga industry information correctly, I believe that many manga from new artists get their starts through competitions or pitches submitted during open submission periods to comic publishing companies in Japan, but Adachitoka probably had a bit of an advantage in getting Noragami accepted, given they already had a good track record …

A random thought I had what if the final “boss” Of Noragami turns out to be not father, but Izanagi. And the guy who set up the Shinto system was the worst Child abuser of them all? (Ebisu and Kagatsuchi could vouch for Izanagi’s propensities) Would that change your thoughts on the Tsukiyomi Theory? I admit I don’t have much to support it. Just I think that in a series that deals with child abuse as seriously as this one. It’s weird that Izanagi would fall off the radar like he does in myth.

Gonna answer two asks in one here, since they’re both about the Tsukuyomi theory.I’ve toyed around with the idea of Father being Izanagi for a while–there are definitely some connections there:1) “Father” as a name and a role in the story; as far as dads go in Japanese mythology, Izanagi is definitely the most well-known.2) …

Is Dabi Just Terrible at Being a Villain?

I got a couple asks regarding my opinions on BNHA’s villains, especially Dabi, so… Time to engage in Echo’s very favorite game: alternative character interpretation!Look man, I’m not about to go off on a wild conspiracy theory here and suggest that Dabi’s actually a vigilante who has his own agenda that only occasionally overlaps with …

I still have a bunch more asks I need to get to but I’m feeling super headachy from messing up my sleep schedule last night so I think I’m gonna pass for tonight. I’ll try to catch up with asks officially tomorrow.And like… actually write some reason stuff sometime soon too…
