Happy belated mob bday rune!! Something I want to see more of.. I don’t want to sound like a broken record and just say “ritmob” so I’ll try to be more creative,, 2 things I could come up with..

1: I think I’d like to explore more “horror” elements?? ONE sensei has an incredible grasp on horror/eeriness like mogami’s mindfuck world or shigeo’s limitless power.. the mimic in the spin-off also comes to mind, but even just the power or social imbalances between people can be cool to see.. also the scary situations that psychics powers and spirits can take characters, or trauma caused by these things,, or even just generally unnerving/unsettling dynamics, without the supernatural.. I want more physical, visual, and psychological horror for these characters >:)

2: I want to see more of Reigen being more serious, more of a badass,, he’s smart, clever, a little manipulative and VERY charismatic and I think you can have so much fun with that.. I love seeing him con people, love him protecting others with his wit and skills even though he’s comparatively “weak” to the rest of the main cast.. I want to see Reigen mess with people, want to see him show off his talents—for good or evil :))

Of course, Reigen and Ritsu my beloveds.. sometimes with ritsu my crush is more of a “for mob” situation.. the same is also true for Reigen, but with him I also just generally have a big stupid crush regardless of any ships.. like if I had Reigen as a mentor I’d fuck it up by being too flustered around him..

Other mp100 characters I think are unreasonably hot:
Dimple (in any form, the size difference,, his ego,,)
Teru (charismatic, confident, ripped, and a little unhinged)
Serizawa (huge and kind, could break me, his unkept look is so,, hhnn)
Touichirou (..daddy)
Shimazaki (sadistic and confident, also his character design aaagh)
Sagawa (absolutely swole, smart, supportive, loves animals)
Koyama (facial piercings, an asshole, will beat the shit out of me)
Tsubomi (pretty, girlboss, knows what she wants, can step on me)
Mogami (I can fix him, or he can make me worse)
Minori (cruel, sadistic, pretty and can step on me pt.2)

There’s plenty of weird little quirks ritsu has that fascinate me: carrying spoons everywhere, the way he’s able to lie and manipulate a little too easily, the fact he doesn’t listen to music, his favoritism and obsessions with mob.. but one scene in particular always stood out to me, and that was the mugging scene,,

Both brothers are protective of the other, but I really like comparing mob’s justified reaction to Koyama, an aggressive, violent grown man—who is PSYCHIC—who is trying to harm and KIDNAP Ritsu, and Ritsu’s instantaneous reaction to some pathetic highschool thugs:

mob is incredibly patient and shows great self restraint until exploding on Koyama.. he has every reason in the world to be as pissed off and aggressive as he is.. Ritsu on the other hand.. he’s ready to Choke Out a teenager—a non esper—for threatening to mug mob.. insane.. even after being told off by Teru to not use his powers on others, even after the kidnapping arc, even after making amends with mob, Ritsu’s come to the conclusion that it’s Fine actually, that using his abilities on other people is warranted if he feels it’s deserved (not even necessary, just DESERVED, LMAO)

Like, he could’ve floated the guy away, could have just threatened him, could have stepped in just with a warning and words, but no, he immediately jumps to straight up violence in the most nonchalant way.. these brothers clearly have different moral standards and it’s hilarious..

Aaaa thank you fhdjsjs!! <3<3<3 Im really glad you enjoyed the dolphin shenanigans, I was genuinely worried about that post’s reception haha,, I need to remind myself I made my twt account specifically to be as creatively weird and gross and freaky as I want

I regularly make myself simultaneously uncomfortable and intrigued with my art/ideas, and I want it have that same impact on others as well.. I think that feeling of discomforted enjoyment is so special and thought provoking—that it partly helps encapsulate the human condition.. it’s what really makes me appreciate dark fiction, and why I think even the most self indulgent/no-plot-smut/shitposts have so much value and meaning <3 (I’m realizing I sound insane being all pretentious about anime boy dolphin assault doodles LMAO) Ty sm!!

1) I answered another question with a giant annoying response abt my fav bug (moths!!) but I also really like spiders (especially jumping spiders and tarantulas bc they’re adorable), cicadas, bees, centipedes, beetles.. the list goes on.. I even like most species of cockroach (just not the pest kinds since they freak me out lmao) and sometime soon I think I may get a giant hissing roach as a pet!! but yeah most bugs are little cuties to me c:

2) Thank youuu I love youuu ;-; <33333 when I first started drawing I tried for a “Tim Burton-esque” “Gorillaz-ish” facial style since those were a big inspiration for me!! And it means so much coming from you, you already know I absolutely adore your art style,, you’re a master at anatomy and your expressions are always on point.. the way you do the paneling for your comics, your immaculate line work.. aaaagh..

This is such a difficult question to answer because I love everything about him.. his character arc, his personality, his weird little quirks, his character design.. the fact he’s exceptionally talented and adept in academics, athletics, in social circles, etc, while simultaneously being a little weirdo.. so perfect but not..

I’d say most of all I appreciate his relationship with mob <3 he has such complicated, dramatic feelings towards his big bro and it’s one of most enjoyable things to me,, I get endless entertainment out of having ritsu suffer through his brother complex, it’s crazy.. he makes it so easy to turn him into a freak, I just can’t help but indulge

I love all insects and bugs but my favorite are lepidopterans, especially moths!! They’re usually not as beloved as butterflies but I think they’re absolutely adorable..

I really love how soft and cuddly some species can appear, try looking up Macroglossum stellatarum (hummingbird hawkmoths) that look like hummingbirds or Dryocampa rubicunda (rosy maple moths) that have cute, bright colors and a fuzzy thorax that almost looks like a puffball,, there’s just so many variations, so much diversity with these little guys and it’s amazing.. these types of moths also help me get people to be less afraid of bugs as a whole; they can serve as a sort of stepping stone for those who might not like insects, since there can be a learned fear of them.

I remember my kindergarten class raising some caterpillars and watching them transform.. the concept of metamorphosis is so beautiful to me and really sparked my interest as a child :’) setting those little butterflies free was so bittersweet and wonderful; I love all animals and bugs are an incredibly underrated species to be cherished <3

I was (still am) super fixated on mp100 for the last several years.. I didn’t really have ships in mind the first few years, I just watched the show over and over and re read the manga a lot.. eventually I ventured into reading fics and getting more active on socmed to look at fanart since I needed more content lol,,

I wasn’t super picky and just looked at anything and everything that piqued my interest; Reimob resonated w/ me instantly bc of their obvious chemistry together, but I also liked multiple other ships too.. I stumbled upon a ritmob fic and it sort of changed my brain chemistry.. I was dumbfounded by how gross and sweet and codependent their relationship could be, it was just so fascinating to me and reignited my love of problematic fiction,,

I should mention I had a buried desire in dark fiction for a loooong while.. I enjoyed grotesque/scary/toxic/nonconsensual/ fiction just as much as fluffy, wholesome content but I felt a lot of internal shame and didn’t really allow myself to indulge in that creatively,, I was afraid I’d get made fun of or shunned and I had a fear of people being upset at me so I just.. didn’t.. I also didn’t really let myself be creative in general for those reasons,, I didn’t want to be seen as “cringe” and so I’d barely draw anything, would never write creatively, wouldn’t let myself make the stuff I really wanted to

Well ritmob sort of opened the floodgates and gave me the push to start indulging and creating c: I began to intentionally seek out more ritmob content as I started to fixate on the ship and just got more motivated to allow myself to have fun and find what I enjoyed.. and when I ran out of content I was forced to make my own.. I started getting serious about learning how to draw and dipped my toes into making fanfiction all because I wanted more ritmob LMAO

Reflecting back on it, I think I really like ritmob bc it has the capability to be both incredibly sweet and loving while also being super fucked up.. I know that can be applied to a lot of other mp100 ships but with Ritmob specifically it felt more intense bc they’re family, brothers.. mob would never disown ritsu, could never escape him.. like even if their relationship is super wholesome it would never be healthy or ethnical bc ~incest~ and I adore that.. doomed yaoi.. plus the dynamic of obsessive vs. submissive always gets me.. also I project a lot onto mob and make him suffer in my place fbdjsj and Ritsu’s character design and personality are just,, so hot to me personally,, sorry this was so long, I’m insane about them, ty for the question!!
