that sounds really good, actually
right up my alley. if there's a way to get to it here, i'll read it
don't give any spoilers :P

i liked devilman too. it was a good adaptation [ those are two different adaptations but you know, what does he know, ] so yeah, good taste
i probably have a rec or two to swap you. i had a couple books in my bag when i woke up here, so they're not in the best shape but i don't mind sharing.
anything for a fellow fan lol

and you know
people used to give me shit for liking shoujo.
i think being open to different stuff's what makes you a real fan
people like that can kiss my ass. or my fist, if they're really obnoxious about it.

who cares what you read? if it's good, it's good. sticking to your guns is important
i like your outlook. i take it back, you have *great* taste.

lunatia feels kind of like an isekai, right?
i've been thinking that since the beginning.

I know the full set of volumes is here! They're not mine, though, so I can't promise to loan them out without my friend's permission, but I can definitely ask! I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem, what's the point of having them if not to read them, right?

SPOILERS I'm thinking about dressing up as the main character for Geistnacht! :P

And actually, now that you mention it...oh, wow, it really does feel like an isekai! Haha, I never thought of it that way before but now that you've said it, I can't NOT see it! That means we're the protagonists, though, right? That's a pretty nice thought, that maybe we're here in outer space to have thrilling adventures and meet interesting people and make memories that'll last forever.

I think I definitely fit the type for being a protagonist, too. I was pretty normal back home, I went to school and had some hobbies and would babysit for the little kid who lived down my street, but there wasn't anything really special about me. So maybe this is my shot, haha!

based on this, i'd say you're definitely protagonist material.
home isn't remotely "normal" by isekai standards for me, plus i've got my mic, which is close to a superpower, i guess.
so...guess i must be a side character.
i'll support you on your journey, protag.
don't worry, i'm always on the side of a hero.

i'd love to see your cosplay, too. accurate and everything, right? lol
i'll catch up on it before then.

Edited (i got so excited abt responding to this i forgot to respond to the part about cosplay smh ) 2019-10-13 18:33 (UTC)

Wait, wait, hold on, you can't just hold out on me like that! What do you mean, close to a superpower? A mic??

I want an explanation or I'm recasting you as the mysterious ally type who always shows up to help in a critical moment but never gives a straight answer about anything!

And if you want to see it, then I guess we better pick a place to meet up sometime, huh?

(ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖ wwwwwww
am i tuxedo mask? i didn't realize this was a magical girl isekai, too.

nah, that ain't me.
it's a hypnosis mic. at home, they're really common.
they use soundwaves to manipulate brainwaves. people use them for all kinds of stuff, but we mostly battle each other via rap. [ attached: a picture. ]
it's that part that's the superpower. i'm pretty good at it.
can i have my status back as a party member side character?

what're you doing for halloween? it's coming up.

[Memo to self: ask Rohan who Tuxedo Mask is at the earliest possible opportunity.]

So it's like...a microphone that lets you brainwash people? Or — when you say manipulate, you mean like you attack other people's...minds? In a rap battle?

[Which is...weird, but maybe it's like a Stand that only works when you're rapping? That's a little easier to wrap her head around, which makes this a rare occasion in which someone finds Jojos logic easier to understand than literally anything else.]

Actually, I don't have any plans yet? A lot of the parties so far have just been street celebrations, so I figured I'd go walk around those. How about you?

[ he will introduce you to sailor moon in the best non fourth wall breaking way he can. ]

it's more like the second one, yeah.
i use it to defend my division and my family.
i'm not letting anyone take advantage of us if i can help it.

and to be honest, i'm still pretty new here.
back home i'd probably just go to a themed cafe or something.
maybe we could go check out the street celebrations together?
i'll dress up too - duh.

[countdown to her nicknaming him "tuxedo mic" in three two one]

Oh, I get it! That makes sense...if things like that are really that common where you're from, then I can definitely see how sooner or later someone would try to use one to hurt people. And I guess if that's what they're using, then having one of your own is the only way to do anything about it, right? So you're on the same wavelength, then.

[RAP BATTLE STANDS. IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW.]

A themed cafe, huh...

But yeah! Walking around those celebrations sounds great, I bet they'll have candy and good food and all kind of cool displays. Do I get to know what you're dressing up as, or is it a surprise? :P

[ he would be honored, maybe. ]

Exactly. you got it.
I can punch someone fine, but i can't do shit if someone's messing with my head.
so, fight fire with fire. it didn't start that way, but that's how it is now.
and i like rapping, anyway, it's something i've always liked.
so i can't complain, even if it comes off kind of weird to anybody here.

definitely a surprise, but it'll be worth the wait.
i don't do anything by halves, ever.
especially something that's with my otaku cred.

i'm ichiro, yamada ichiro, by the way. don't know if i said that. mc bb's my MC name.
it'd be messed up to ask a girl out and not give your real name, huh.

I don't think it's weird! Believe me, I've heard a LOT weirder things than that. And I'd like to hear you rap sometime! I mean, if you can do it without all the battle stuff, haha.

Well, okay, with talk like that, I'll definitely be holding it up to the highest standard! Better hope you can walk the walk, too!

Oh, is that where it comes from...that's cool! I'm Reimi Sugimoto. My username is a pun on my name, too — it's rei-mi, with the characters for "bell" and "beauty". So, bella belle!

bb, bella belle.
that sounds like a rap already
you sure you aren't writing rhymes on the side? :P
on my end it stands for "big bro". you wanna pick a name that describes you, you know? and my little bros're the most important thing i've got.

reimi-chan, then. it's nice to meet you.
if you've got a copy of that manga for me to read, i'll check it out, too.
you can bet i won't let you down on the date front, either. costume included.

OHHH YOU HAVE LITTLE BROTHERS! How old are they? How many do you have?? What are their names?? That's so cute that you picked your rap name with them in mind! Do they ever rap with you??

[KIDS!!!]

The pleasure's all mine, Ichiro-kun! I'll ask my friend if I can loan it out. I'm pretty sure it won't be a problem, though, I think he likes it a lot when people read his work. :)

Haha, I can't wait to see it! We'll have to think of a signal or something so we can recognize each other when we meet up!

[ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! don't start him on this topic, he'll never shut up ]

I've got two, and they're the best little bros ever.
seriously, i'm so lucky.
jiro and saburo. jiro's 17, saburo's 14. hang on.

[ he attaches a photo of a photo he must have had in his wallet. ]

it's just the three of us together, i'm their guardian.
you got it on the nose, too, we're in a crew together! the three of us represent ikebukuro as Buster Bros
so i'm big bro, jiro is mb, middle bro, and saburo's lb, little bro.
i started rapping first but i taught them. they're seriously beyond me, it blows me away how talented they both are.
i've got a couple of their tracks on my phone, i'll share them with you too
i'm like the proudest big brother in the world, there's nobody better than jiro and saburo.
they're both so cute, too

Oh, so that's how it is. Like you were saying, different territories for different rappers. Are there official competitions or something, too? Or is it mostly just battles come up whenever someone starts trouble?

They're so CUTE! Aww, and you can really see that you guys love each other a lot, I'm really jealous! I'm an only child and I...haven't seen my family in a while. I bet the three of you must get up to a lot of mischief, huh? You all definitely look like troublemakers to me!

yeah, division battles. winner gets pieces of territory out of the other one's division.
it used to just be a pride thing but it's not like that anymore.
not that it matters here. it's kind of a vibe kill anyway, let's not talk about it.

anyway--
when it comes to my bros, yeah, we're the closest.
they're at the age where they fight a lot right now but
they love each other. they're a kickass team, too. the three of us together? powerhouse.
they're both gonna surpass me at rap, soon, too.
jiro's a punk, and saburo's got an attitude. he's still so young and cute, he gets away with a lot.
sometimes i think half the shit they get up to is punishment
cause i was definitely worse. lol.

if it makes you feel better, i get it. neither of them are here.
it sucks, but if its an isekai, at least i know they aren't missing me.
i'd tear this entire place down with my bare hands to get back to them if it was the other way around.
just gotta make some kind of a family here, right?
not the same, but a crew's a crew.

Mm, okay. It sounds...like a lot to deal with, but you're right, that's kind of heavy talk, so.

Haha, I have it on good authority that being young and cute really does mean you get away with most things. I meaaaaaaan, I'm not saying I'VE ever used that to my advantage or anything! (But I definitely have.) They sound like great guys, it's really obvious why you get along so well. And I bet they admire you a lot, being oldest.

...You're right, though. Friends aren't the same as a family, no matter how close you are, but at the same time...maybe they're just a different kind of family. And sometimes that's all you get, but I don't think there's anything wrong with that. There are people here I'd do anything for, and there are people here I've already done everything for, and I'd do it again in a second. It's not the same as my mom and dad, but having them makes my world a better place anyway.

i'm doing my best to be a good role model for them, for sure.
i've fucked up before, so i just want to do right by them.
...and i really just want to make sure jiro graduates high school.
he's kinda
well, he's a jock for sure.
let's put it like that lol.
i'll keep an eye out for you not using it to your advantage.
i'm an expert at dodging it. :P

...but i get that, yeah.
couldn't have said it better myself.
trust em, love em. ride or die kinda people are just as important.
i know that nowadays.

yknow, you've got a really good head on your shoulders
not just cause of your taste in manga, either.
i'm hella looking forward to getting to know you better.
i'll be a good date in return. :)

You said he was seventeen, right? So he must be in his third year...I'm sure he'll make it. Especially if he's got a guy like you to look up to. As for the other thing, though...maybe someday we'll see who wins, me being cute or you trying to dodge it. :P

You know, sometimes I feel like I don't do enough for those people in my life. Because they're all so great and selfless and tough, and I'm just...me, you know? But I feel like, if it came down to it, I'd fight just as hard for them as they would for me. I wouldn't want to let them down, not for anything.

So...maybe I can text you sometime, then? Above and beyond just our date, I mean. Like just to talk and hang out over text?

hey, that's a competition i'd be down for.

and you fighting for them matters.
at least if it was me, that's what i'd think.
best you can do is give your best for the people you care about.
no one can fault you if you're trying all you can.

hell yeah, reimi-chan.
anytime you want, hit me up.
i was planning on live texting you my reactions to this manga, anyway.

Okay, but I should warn you! I'm gonna win. :)

...Hey, I've got an idea. Pick something that you like to read that maybe I haven't read yet. Then we'll be even. I'll read mine the same time you read yours, and we can both text each other our reactions.

I'm pretty competitive.
i like your confidence, though

sounds dope, i'm in.
i'll send you a screencap. gimme a sec.

[ after a brief pause, reimi is going to get a cap of the very first volume of evangelion, bc of course she is. ]

good luck putting it down.

Then I guess we'll have a fun time seeing what happens, won't we?

"Neon Genesis Evangelion", huh. All right, I'll definitely give it a shot! Hope you're ready to hear all about it. :P

can't wait.

[ for the date, for the competition, and for the live reading. and the new series, actually. this is good all around. ]
