this is right after yoshiki tells him he doesn't need to be or act like a human.
i love that even from pretty early on (considering the continuation via the manga), we get that yoshiki values hikaru's existence as a non human entity even with all the ups and downs. thank you mmr
the summer hikaru died spoilers //
just finished rewatching ep9 and the sound hikaru makes here after having his head chopped off will never not be funny to me. it doesn't take me out of the scene or anything, it just tickles me a lot
overall ep9 is another solid episode, especially with the conversation at yoshiki and hikaru's hideout.
since I was already talking about hikaru sounds, the pleased sound he makes almost to just himself here and his expression are soo endearing
this is another shot from ep7 I like bc of the use of light & shadows.
yoshiki ascending the stairs into the darkness feels thematically fitting & foreboding bc the viewer can tell something's obviously been up for a bit, but they don't know yet what's about to happen
i'm glad we got that kind of nuance in the manga, and though i doubt it'll happen it'd be nice to see it animated along with a bunch of the other extras
idr if i noticed this before but hikaru checks out a video about peacocks in ep7. I wonder if this is a callback to that one bit of the manga where he questions what kind of "like" his "like" is?
like obv it's not the same series of events, and maybe he just likes these videos
what is yoshiki so loud for at the start of the ep 5 mixing scene?? it's so funny sjdgngdh
there was a tumblr post at some point about how he's like " uaagg auuahhh hgauh aaua oh wait this is fine actually"
@midnighteonn yes!! I think eps 2 and 3 are both bangers one after the other. I'm curious to see how I feel about the rest of the episodes as I continue to rewatch
the first time i watched ep 3 back when it had first aired I hadn't even been nearly as attached to yoshikaru as i am now, but even then the last scene made me tear up and i think the voice acting contributed greatly to that
