(some) Of My Thoughts, Rambles, And Theories- Bucchigiri?! Ep 6

look at them having a jolly ol time while their vessels are getting mentally tortured now isnt that sweet

I've watched through all the pjeg characters currently available ftes and here are my personal highlights:

I'm choosing to interpret the like/dislike indicators as Damon canonically being a good gift giver. You can't stop me

Damon getting really autistic about debate structure with Toshiko just to mess with her. Actually, Damon being autistic in general. With everyone

Eva literally using "I left the oven on" to exit a conversation

Damon aggressively demanding Diana tell him about herself and then getting mad when she asks if it's because they're friends

Wolfgang bringing up Grace completely unprompted within a minute of Damon arriving and having, quote, "a lot to say, that's for sure"

Everything Wenona ever says. She's so amusing to me

Eloise cursing Damon out for asking her if she's fatherless (and no, he does not understand what he did wrong)

"I hope whoever has [my blackmail] can be cool about it and confess... Maybe we can talk it out," -Desmond Hall. Smash cut to me screaming into my pillow

Ulysses being employed (one of my favorite things about him). That little boy is a grown ass man

Also it's kinda funny to me how the people Damon is nicest to are the unpopular nerds of the class. Probably because he's one of them <3

Damon walking up and sniffing Jett like that's a totally normal thing to do.. animal to animal communication

why does mark say unprompted that he doesn't like his name. writers you can't do this to me you can't make me care about this loser

JEAN'S FIRST FTE PURPOSELY ENDING ON A CLIFFHANGER LIKE THE TOZU THEATER SHIP STORY

"YMCA at sea" also got me who gave this man the right to be so funny

aaaaaaahh the differences between Arajin's lunch and Matakara's lunch.....

Arajin is eating a bento that his mother cooked (with LOVE), you can see noodles, meat and vegetables in it (it's a nutritious, healthy lunch)

Matakara is eating something he bought at a supermarket for more or less 1000 yen, there's mainly rice and meat in there (it can fill his stomach but it's not really "healthy")

Despite eating delicious homecooked food everyday, Arajin has been terrible to his mother (yelling at her, calling her "old hag" etc)

Despite having cheap food for lunch, Matakara doesn't complain or act rude to his loved ones

SUA - IVAN TYPE OF JEALOUSY

I've just realized that Sua and Ivan had the same very weird type of jealousy:

- Sua was not jealous of Till even though Till liked Mizi, instead, Sua turned to be upset with Mizi 'cause Mizi was so silly goofy that she didn't realize Till's feelings for her though it was as plain as crystal.

- And in the same way, Ivan was not jealous of Mizi although Mizi won Till's affection. He turned to be upset with Sua instead because Sua's feelings was reciprocated and her affection for Mizi was both-sided while his was not, even though he considered that they were alike, that they were the same kind of person.

Also on the contrary, we can see that Ivan is very close to Mizi in some offical side-arts/side-stories (you can find them on Vivinos X account). Mizi talked to Ivan first and asked him for an explanation when she heard something she didn't understand, and she even asked Ivan to carry her on his back. Mizi and Ivan interaction was far closer than Mizi and Till. Actually, Till's relationship with Mizi was like one-sided, and he just followed behind Mizi to know more about her but did not dare to come closer or tried to strike up a proper conversation.

this was a neat way of showing how arajin’s priorities have changed, but im honestly pretty disappointed with how little mahoro did in eps 10-11. ep 11 especially could have been a good moment for her to confront arajin and indirectly have him see her for who she really is as a person, or even go straight to facing off with matakara like she did with akutaro in episode 6

I think I should start gatekeeping these two from the BUCCHIGIRI?! Twitter/X space cause the way they acted towards two flawed teenagers is just horrendous.

My thoughts on bucchigiri are IM GETTING BAITED IM GETTING BAITED IM GETTING BAITED IM GETTING BAITED IM GETTING BAITED IM GETTING

@m4squ3raid ask and u shall receive

something about the way zabu dismisses matakara's love for the honki people story while arajin also verbally bashes it but is still so clearly endeared by it....
