HMMM that’s a tough question because i’m never able to narrow my choice down to one because i love too many things about each ryuseitai member… i think i’ll go with specifically a trait that excites me SO much and if i ever hear about it i’m SO on my way. EASIEST WAY TO BAIT ME
♥ chiaki: i love deranged chiaki i love obnoxiously loud chiaki i LOVE LOVE LOVE i can never get tired of seeing him be this way. my favorite thing EVER is seeing chiaki thrive and loosen up and do whatever he feels like doing in that moment and on that day. IT MEANS EVERYTHING TO MEEEE this is why i can never get enough of his interactions with midori because he really lets himself loose with midori. never holds back. just 1000% unhinged, obnoxious, loud, annoying, clingy, pushy, active, EVERYTHING EVERY SINGLE THING
💚 midori: love love L O V E the way midori is so kind and empathetic beneath all the confusing or harsh things he says. i truly will never get tired of seeing this and i’m so glad it continues to be relevant even into his 3rd year. it is so much fun to figure out where the kindness lies in the strange or even rude things he’s saying. i love how midori’s rudeness or harshness is a big necessity in ryuseitai and especially in chiaki’s life. i feel like there is such a better way for me to describe what i love about this but whenever i see it i’m obsessed. also i love how because of this, his kindness is so natural… like midori never brings himself to Be kind (though he sometimes thinks or talks as though it Is something that drains him or he finds a bother) HE JUST NATURALLY IS KIND. he’s so naturally kind that even the moments he’s being a huge pain, he’s still kind lmao. wub. maybe another way to describe this is "indirect kindness". his words don’t straightforwardly sound kind, but ultimately what he’s doing or expressing is such a gentle, important thing the person needed to hear (ahem. chiaki)
🖤 tetora: his design-- ok i want to also talk about his personality too but HIS DESIGNNNN MY FAVORITE THING IS TETORA’S CHARACTER DESIGN IT’S SO GOOD IT’S SO HANDSOME IT’S SO PERFECTLY CRAFTED AND THE WAY HAPIELE DRAWS IT IN ART MAKES ME SO. WHAT THE FUCK. FUCK. tetora definitely has one of my favorite visual designs if not THE ultimate favorite (but i have a feeling if i ever did a ranking he could easily come out on top). i’m so weak to handsome masculine boys that can pull off practically any look… godtier btw. in terms of personality/story, i think he is SUCH a versatile character who works with ANYONE. his dynamics with practically anyone is so colorful and fun to see. he’s compatible with anyone to the point he can even work with people he seems like he wouldn’t be compatible with… the power of being really good at communication. that’s tetora :)
💙 kanata: i love how human he is!! or like, i love how kanata is about how he isn’t just some cryptid. his writing and storyline is sooo unique because he starts off with everyone around him, even himself, treating him as some mysterious person… but it all slowly unravels, he’s treated as a human being with emotions too… with his own thoughts and feelings and own reasons for doing things. IDK it’s hard to explain what i mean exactly but basically my favorite thing is how everything he does is for a very Very "human" reason. i’ve been around since ! era stories when his mysterious side was much stronger than his human side, so realizing this about kanata really made me connect with him a LOT better…
💛 shinobu: I L O V E when shinobu’s ninja side is utilized as A GENUINE THING THAT IS USEFUL AND PRACTICAL IN SITUATIONS. one of my favorite things ever. actually i just love how he quite literally grew to embody the concept of "ninja hero". there are so many things he does for the sake of helping others, but approaches it as a ninja. i love love LOVE how he is so reliable with utilizing his ninja techniques that he is constantly tasked to do many ninja-like missions (going on a spy mission, retrieving information, etc.). i just… love it when shinobu is taken seriously and as someone who is genuinely capable and strong. i love how shinobu BEING taken seriously is part of WHY he became so capable and strong. HE IS A NINJA!!!!!!!!
hehe it was fun gushing about ryuseitai… thank you for asking!!
