Happy 1st anniversary of the opening day of Musical Hakuouki Shinkai - Hijikata Toshizou hen 🌸

It's been a good year now, but I still think very fondly of those three weeks travelling through Japan while chasing Hijikata's back with @ununotter and @liliththunder. Meeting up with @tofutortoise, and even running into @hmmami after the evening show in Kobe. You were all part of this unforgettable experience. 💜💗

I still think that Shinkai Hijikata hen is one of my favourite HakuMyus. The music, the story, the actors--- their acting... I could tell they put their heart and soul into it, and no one more so than Kubota. In one interview Mouri said that they wanted to create a musical that would make people say they were glad they got to experience it in theatres. Well, I can safely say I'm really glad I got to see it in theatres, and I would love to experience that again one day.

There’s not a single person back home who reads my works. Or, if they do read them, no doubt they merely focus with a pitying smile on the vile nature of the main character, recounting his flaws to others with exasperated shakes of the head, scornfully deriding me for bringing shame upon our homeland. Once, four years ago, when I briefly met my eldest brother in Tokyo, he told me to stop sending my books to the relatives. ‘Not even I want to read them,’ he said. 'When the relatives read what you write, how do you think they…’ He didn’t finish, but bowed his head, as if the words had caught in his throat, but he’d said enough to make things perfectly clear to me. I didn’t intend to send another one of my books back home as long as I live.

day 194: 8mjn before next day I'm so smart

💋

What about the other end of the stick? (Traits you hate of Dazai)

here's the thing: i don't dislike any of his traits (besides the obvious stuff such as abusing akutagawa or being a former professional killer)

although i think his work attitude would make me go insane 😭 at the end of the day he gets the important stuff done but i'm literally kunikida in this situation so we'd be constantly fighting (affectionately)

i wish he'd rely on external help more instead of handling threats on his own without involving other people (the agency) but i share the same trait so i'm not in the right position to say i dislike it lmao
