i don't need a reality check i swear

Aside from the other side plotlines like: Haruka being a potential spy for Ayanokoji. Koenji making a move to take down Ayanokoji for his freedom. Sudo falling in love with someone else. We know Ayanokoji is creating a space where he's the leader and trying to make enemies so he's taken down. We are finally seeing the groundwork come to life. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's how I see the board, or how things would go if its like chess: Up first, Hiyori. Ayanokoji got last place to save Hiyori. Matter of fact, wanted to truly fall in love with her, immerse himself in actual human mistakes. To me, I feel like Ayanokoji would try to make her the King peice on the board. She can't do anything to benefit him like a pawn would, nor do I recall him ever asking her for favors. He wants to protect her.

The rest of the pieces are the people in Ayanokojis class + potentially Haruka are just his pieces. I dont think I have a way of describing who would fit into what. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speaking of, if you ask me, I'd see Ayanokoji as the Queen peice. He's capable of doing anything, has a potential spy in class D.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Now we know Ichinose is seen as "broken" but thats not the case at all considering her newfound ruthless behavior. She's realistic, the perfect example of how much Ayanokoji can break someone (and realistic bc we all either know of, met, or became someone boycrazy, its not uncommon in teenage years, the LN will just make it dramatic which sways the audience). Ichinose would be the one to take down Hiyori, the King piece. In this game, even if the king is gone, as long as the rest are alive theres a chance to win. Since Ayanokoji cared about Hiyori he may lose his protection point here, or she'd actually be gone.

(This is my fav image of Ichinose, I love seeing the different colored styled ppl make). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We know Arisu was too good of an opponent and didnt need to grow. She withdrew from the school to see Ryuen at his peak against Ayanokoji. Ryuen is the main villian Ayanokoji wanted to create for himself. Theres nothing more to say. Knowing Ryuen's cunning nature, I feel like he's the kind of guy to rather put in a dent- or get a dirty kill with Ayanokoji. Knowing Horikita's plot armor, I feel like he'd be the kind of guy that would get rid of Ayanokoji's pillars, or help Horikita when she really needs it just to get a dig at Ayanokoji. I can see Ryuen- as much as he had a soft spot for Hoyori for her intelligence for his plans, he would sacrifice her if needed to also get a dig at Koji- or bait him in loosing that protection point.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We all saw this coming. Horikita would take down in the school Ayanokoji or have some kind of meeting with his father in the distant future because of this. I'm not saying she'd win- I'm not saying Ryuen and Ichinose would be successful either. Either way its confirmed shes going to be in Ayanokojis future somewhere somehow. Horikita does have a bunch of monster trump card in her class too. Hirata and Kushida for influence. Koenji and Sudo for strength. Yukimura and Chiaki for academics. (or replace Chiaki with Horikita). It has monsters, a fool proof plan

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TW: Might have some triggering topics and abuse. I highly doubt they would canonically do this to their partner. But if they decide to take a few bad turns in life and not want to be better- this is something I think they'd do. Some characters might have more red flags written on them only because I can't think of anything else to write for one of them. And yes, this is the characters at the extreme level.

GENERATION OF MIRACLES:

Seijuro Akashi:

- He pulls up with the creepy emperor eyes when he's studying you. It's not a red flag- his eyes are just scary.

- Having a kid together is a requirement for his life. He'd either stick with you thinking you'd change your mind if you do not want any, tell you to get an abortion if the child is said to have future birth defects (even slip crushed up pills or just silently pray). There are things he is empathetic, some things he can slide, but this is non-negotiable.

Daiki Aomine:

- He's more tame now, doesn't get in fights even if someone asks for it- he just intimidates or ignores. Aomine is a idiot, lazy, he ends up never helping with chores, never being bothered to prepare for guests coming over, he's barely passing school and just wants your answers. It looks pathetic. He'd study with you and comply- but when he's been procrastinating and it's last min assignment and you don't allow him freebies- he def argues or yells at you for being petty and annoying.

- He doesn't look at his boobie magazines cause he's not interested in them anymore, he's interested in you. But.... he never throws them out either. Wtf are they- a safety net? On the flip side, you actually find him buying more magazines, after some digging- (lets be real, i doubt he's good at hiding stuff), you find a notebook with magazine cut-outs of a women. - Her eyes and hair are the same as yours. - The body looks around the same as yours, but the eye, mouth, nose- basically the rest are either the same shape, or similar to yours. He is recreating you as close as possible.

Atsushi Murasakibara:

- You may think it's food related or something to do with his laziness. But I think not, Murasakibara actually applies himself in academics, shown in the anime, as for the manga extras- his Teiko report card said his lifestyle isn't bad, and his grades were leaning towards the middle to high range. We all know how he doesn't play with stuff he cares about like basketball and his friends(letting Tatsuya hit him is proof). What's his red flag? Intimidating you and making you feel unsafe. Sometimes he even does it for fun- masking his anger. In the anime out of frustration he kicked a bench, and break a whole ass hoop, which Kagami could've gotten injured. For a guy that's pretty caring this is a 180 and it's cannon.

- He'd break things shared between you, or only go after your things. If come very close to you in a dangerous way. You think he lost control- but in actuality he knows what he's doing deep down. He subconsciously or consciously makes sure never to hurt you, or punch a wall since that would leave an irreplaceable mark. He also never broke his own items which really opened your eyes.

- If he's feeling even more petty because you retaliated with anger, lectures, breaking things too, he's breaking something expensive or meaningful or threatens to break it, or yells at you to break it but never does anything when you refuse- just wanting the argument to stop. The 2nd reason why I think he'd do this is because these items have an attachment to you. He only cares about things attached to him if he's not in a good place.

Shintaro Midorima:

- In Teiko middle school he was seen as selfish asf (probably from being a rich, smart kid who knows). Shutoku high where he's more redeemed he is only allowed 3 selfish acts a day. Midorima either breaks the "3 selfish act" rule, with every excuse in the book. "That rule only applies in school." "Don’t be foolish, [Name]. I taught you better than that.(yes, you’re a pet now, an extension of him, he’s half narcissistic) that was for our own good since we're a team." He made you walk an unreasonably long way home for no reason.

- Fine with being humbled by his teammates, people he considers his equal. Being in a relationship teaches you things you never knew about yourself and your reaction to things. He’d use “psychology” to explain your own emotions which- he’s not wrong about but not completely right about. He changes the phrasing, you correct him sometimes and other times you can’t be bothered. He doesn’t expect it to work instantly, it’s groundwork for a later argument he thinks is for growth. Using this he: He makes excuses for himself Makes you think you’re crazy Lectures you so you get fed up and leave.

Ryota Kise:

- He is so sassy and self-centered being the youngest BOY in his family(every fam dynamic is different but normally these are the most spoiled). If you let him get away with it, he runs with it as if he’s testing boundaries. If you don’t let him get away with it, its an argument that leads nowhere(he also calls you uglier for raising your cortisol for no reason). In the manga, it is said he looks down on others until they treat him normally, or are better at him. He’d ignore you for a day if he sees you as below him.

- He copies your words or tactics of arguments because its more satisfying to make you face off your own words against yourself. If you guilt trip, or talk about letting [X] things slide but not this- yea, he copies that.

- He has selective kindness and cruelty in place and purposefully makes you jealous. He would also try to make it “it’s okay if I, Kise, can have friends and hide my relationship status. BUT YOU?? I dunnnooo… I’d say nahhh.” You have to tell people you have a boyfriend without showing proof(people think you’re a liar), and you can’t have friends either.

Tetsuya Kuroko:

- He makes you feel like shit if you upset him. Not like a kicked puppy but more like a “i did so much for you…” He makes you feel like you lose everything. Like you are dependent on him. He is a shadow, and makes you feel like a shit light, like you’re holding him back, and your greatness and achievements weren't real- it was Kuroko’s. You are instantly hideous if he dumps you no matter how pretty you looked yesterday.

Disclaimers: I KNOW ZANKA'S WEAPON REFLECTS ON HIS SELF-PERCEPTION ON WHO HE THINKS HE IS. LET ME HAVE FALSE HOPE. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For starters let's look at Hyo's introduction, some girl from the slums- Zanka was apart of a family that's basically royalty. She does not belong there.

Sound familiar? Zanka described his weapon as the most disgusting one of all the options. One that didn't belong there.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My second point, the abilities are similar. Zanka's weapon would make him need to use a more unique style of fighting(so far in the anime we see him use simple moves, while getting creative here n there- he still needs to grow). The unique things he can do for now is catching, hooking, striking, and inverting piecing attacks, sense movement. In Hyo's introduction we know she's talented and follows an unpredictable style of fighting which is how she's able to beat her peers. Point being Hyo is like that weapon, some rando that waltzed in, junk(probably), needing a unique style to fight to be efficient. For now, just gotta wait for Zanka to get stronger to see if his vital instrument really is talented(probs not since it aligns with the user), or if it's simply just a really good stick. Just like how Hyo is a really good human.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The weapon Hyo picked described what Zanka is, so far we have seen the backstory in his pov. The midcore katana fits who Zanka is- or who he looked like to others. It's normal to want the throne, it's normal to get all of the questions correct on an exam, it's normal to excel at his level since that is expected of you. Zanka isn't talented(in his eyes+compared to others with real talent) it's safe to say he's just strictly correct on the learning curve- just like this katana.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As far as we know Hyo does not have a family while Zanka def has. Katana's are passed down as inheritance. Matter of fact, katana's commissioned are seen as siblings like Higekiri and Hizamaru katanas. Or, katanas evolved from its previous model are seen as siblings like the Tachi sword and Uchigatana sword. (don't take me at my word or fact check me with the "uhm actually" i'm just a fangirl throwing in quick Google searches to make comparisons). Anyways Zanka looked promising enough in between his siblings, hell- Zanka has siblings and fits right in- like a katana. This further shows that the blade Hyo didn't pick up a katana, she picked up Zanka. (Don't let ur eyes fool you trust me bro). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Finally- idk Hyo looks like Zanka's staff just look at it. Just look at the front of her hair and his staff.

Like father...

Like son.

Tokyo Revengers Seishu hcs:

Bro the type to have a dirty phone case.

Bro the type to help a tourist as much as possible.

Bro's smile is infectious.

Bro the type to steal the clothes given to him in ads or official art.

Bro the type to complain about waiting.

Bro is one of those kids that says he misses "the good ol days" as if he was apart of Shinichiro's gang adventure and actively played a part. Like, YOU JUST SPAWNED IN. WYM. The adventures are over and all he does is take care of the shop.

Bro would tattoo his body if Shinichiro woke up from his grave and told him to.

Bro is always happy but doesn't show it.

Bro hated it when Koko was taller as kids.

Bro thinks "pretty boy" is an insult and got called that a lot.

Bro has Kokonoi has his emergency contact.

Bro has Shinichiro as a emergency contact, he can't delete it.

Bro talks shit about other gangs... a lot.

Bro knows a lot of street history, where the best food places are, about people, what some buildings used to be before renovating. Thanks to growing up with Shinichiro.

Bro is fun to piss off.

Bro always thinks he's the strongest, till proven otherwise.

Under Izana's Command:

Bro honestly liked Izana. I mean Izana was intriguing, powerful, has charisma, Shinichiro kinda raised him, and most of all, Izana is pretty manipulative. 1. Izana would tell Inupi false promises like being the next Black Dragon generation leader (next thing you know, Shinon is the new leader, and he's in juvie). These promises were made only to keep Inui around. 2. Izana would tell Inupi "times have changed, we don't live in that generation" (Shins generation) to also justify Black Dragons new cruelty in place. Inupi seemed to absorb those teachings. You can tell he didn't care about Black Dragon changing, as long as it was kept alive.

All in all Izana had Shinion and Inui on a leash since Shinon had to prove something, and Inupi was praised for his talent (that totally wasn't exploited).

Bro didn't even realize he was being used by Shinion- I'm guessing the dude used Inui's man power to compensate what little he had himself (so he'd stay).

His respect from Izana came when he was forced to 1v1 one of the Haitanis and won. He earned an extra inch on his heels that day.

He got out of juvie "early" for being on good behavior. No one dared to mess with him since people recognized his uniform.

Seishu Inui Crushing on you hcs:

Bro the type to call you by ur full name when first meeting.

Bro super dry on text.

Bro the type to get red ears around you.

It's hard to tell if he has a crush on you by others.

Bro is everywhere or 1 call away.

Bro the type to brush past you when there was plenty of space around.

Bro the type to yearn. You can see the yearning in his eyes if you figure out his feelings before he confesses them.

Bro the type to keep any gift, present, or perk no matter how bad it is because 1. he doesn't want to share, and 2. feels bad for throwing it out.

Bro thinks about you constantly. In Puzz Reve (Tokyo Revengers game) dude goes into many events or places. He'd always bring something back for you from said event or bring you along.

Bro the type that knows your habits.

Bro the type to deny his crush on you by treating you like anyone else. But then goes on to stare, glance, or keep you in his view in some way.

Bro the type to listen to your compliments and see it as his best trait only because you praised it.

Bro more of an outdoors person and the type to drag you out.

Bro the type to agree with ur stupidity.

Bro worries sometimes, he's unable to tell if you're joking with sarcasm or not.

Bro the type to change his hair (with reason) to match what you usually like. Weather that's cutting it, growing it, having a baled lookin undercut, etc.

Bro the type to not confess unless he knows you want him back.

Bro the type to name his motorcycle with both your names combined.

Bro the type to ruffle your hair.

Izana Kurokawa (Regina George)

He's the strongest, pretty smart using Kisaki as Kisaki uses him and does whatever he wants. Both give king/queen energy. He either has a backup plan or comes up with one. Just like Regina did when she got her revenge.

-------------------------------------------------------------- Shion Madarame (Gretchen Wieners)

Here we got the "kiss ass." Shion was up Izana's ass during the Black Dragon days. I honestly respect Shion character, he shows "fake it till you make it" perfectly. Kisaki and Takemichi aren't strong but had talents. Shion and Gretchen just knew how to play their cards. Not to mention how kissing ass didn't work out for them both in the end.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hanma Shuju (Karen Smith)

In the "Mean Girls" movie, Karen states that she can tell the weather based on her body. I feel as though Hanma has something similar which is how his hand-eye coordination is top-tier. Being the idiot fits him perfectly. Despite being a dumbass both characters get along with everyone.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kisaki Tetta (Cady Heron)

Both infiltrated with the intention of ripping things from the inside out. Kisaki in my opnion would view Tenjiku as something he can dispose of. Till he had that talk with Izana rooftop together. Cady didn't have any beef with the "Plastics," and I don't think Kisaki wanted to destroy Tenjiku after the rooftop scene. Plus, he had all the pieces rounded up together. A good leader(izana or mikey), treasurer(koko), and lots of people etc. Cady found friendship in the "Plastics" group esp with Karen (Hanma) which is just so fitting.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bonus: How the group would look like together.

Ft. Inui siblings

Angst + Trauma bonds. (This is late. Idc you can't rush perfection). (Pretend it was posted on Apr 1, his bday). (ALSO LESSGO I GOT HIS LIMIT BREAK LESGGO PUZZ REVE).

Heyy guys this was late but it's Kokonoi's brithday. Why not give him what he wants. A good ending?

Timeskip Kokonoi x Akane. Hajime looked at her deep green eyes, that were shimmering. Despite the fire, her own spark never burned down. That's what made her even more beautiful. Hajime gently slid her shirt off her and took in her delicate form. "To be loved is to be seen," Elizabeth Gilbert had expressed that in her books. Right now, Hajime wasn't just looking at Akane he's seeing her past, her character, her mischievous smile as she slightly tilts her head. She was studying his reaction, everything while he analyzed her body. She was so pretty, so precious…

"Hajime-kun?" 'Is this really okay?' He respected her, they've been together for a while, but this is a big step. A line that was about to be crossed. "Hajime? Hajime." He snapped back. He hadn't realized how long he'd been staring at her. "I didn't know you were such a pervert." That damned mischievous smile widened. That's right, he was staring her breasts for a good 10 seconds. "Listen if you don't want to do this-." He felt a bit of guilt, it felt a little wrong to see your "elder" or someone you admire like this. "I want to. I don't want to wait anymore." Good thing she doesn't care about being straightforward. She was reassuring him that they're on the same playing field. No more waiting. Just them. "Just tell me if you don't like anything." Hajime was on his best behavior from here on. He put his hand on her face, his fingers brushed against the burn on her face. The mark on her face covered her left eye and temple. (A/N: lets be real even if she got out of that fire, there'd be scars. But then again I can see her getting skin or plastic surgery on her body for the scars and reconstruction depending on the damage). ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Kokonoi undid his pants and slid them off. He wasn't in a rush, nor was he taking his time on purpose. Her firm hand didn't even ask, as soon as the fabric fell to his knees on the bed she began to explore him immediately. He didn't want to just please himself though. It had to be for her too. He needed to see that look on her face.

Her blush deepened immensely when Kokonoi found his hands in her pants, stimulating her too before sliding them down to her knees. Kokonoi practically had tunnel vision while staring at her face. He was so focused on her expressions, how the slightest change in made her look better than the last. Like when she leans on her arm more on one side, or she moves her hair back, or when she's looking down at his body before meeting his eyes again. Each expression was cinematic. "A- nngh…~ Koko-kun…~ Koko-kun. Koko-!" He didn't even notice her voice becoming more serious. "Akane… Akane… fuc-." Akane's firm grip stopped him immediately. "Koko-kun." She said it more serious and deeper. Why was she calling him Koko? Did he mess up? "I'm not Akane. I'm Seishu." Kokonoi felt even more confused. She was right in front of him though? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Bonus Ending: Seishu put his pants back on, fixed his belt. He felt something in his pocket, it was some colorful rock to him. He threw down a diamond looking gemstone rock near his face- more specifically Moissanite. The rock was roughly smaller than the size of his palm. Our "pillow princess" Koko looked annoyed but still not awake.

Seishu never understood it, never bought into spiritual crystals or rocks like Koko did. To him, all rocks are arguably for "healing" or for "success" whatever bs people made up. He never met anyone that got successful off of rocks. But Koko liked this type of shit, and Inupi had this gemstone in his room somewhere for a while. Thankfully, Moissanite is a common stone - or rather easy to get your hands on in Japan. (i wanna say he stole it from the lost & found).

"Akane… Akane.." Inui's eyes widened, his face turned a little pale when he heard his bestfriend murmur her name in his sleep. "Koko-kun." He felt sick. Inupi just left his place to distract himself. He knew Koko never moved on. (reference to how similar the siblings look. cred to the artist).

Moissanite. Has all the qualities of a diamond, even looks like one. It's known as the "love stone" next to a diamond which is Aprils true "love stone" and birthstone. You can gaze upon the stone, thinking it's a diamond but in the end, it never will be. Moissanite looks more alive, it's known to be more "fiery" by having a more colorful sparkle. Which is fitting since they are also more durable in flames. Unlike a diamond which has a has a white, colder, dead, less colorful shine and sparkle to it while being weaker to flames. April Fools. Lmk if I fooled you. I know Koko def was. Maybe I'll be nicer on Halloween for trick or treat if you follow me. 🔪

He'd cut fruit for you.

He'd cook for you.

He'd mostly follow your lead.

He'd definitely help or aid you in anyway, mostly injuries, or getting you out of social trouble if you're in any.

His name Mansaku means help, aid.

He talks about how he feels younger around you.

Talks about how when he was young, he was much taller but because of his bad back (+ scoliosis) he shrunk.

Like he's living his life all normal, and then you come along and boost him in and out, suddenly he wants to do things for you. He wants you in his family because you're so kind and he can see it happen.

Would def grow flowers and give them to you.

Ya'll ever argue, and you're being petty (it's funny to look at), he's reading his newspaper absent mindedly.

Has a kind personality and a strong one, he's always determined to help you. (You can see him resemble Shinichiro/Takemichi in that way).

Would massage your shoulders, feet (if you're massaging them yourself, he'd come over).

In turn you'd massage his back, bro would be blushing in embarrassment. If not, then he would still feel it.

The Sano house not only looks traditional, but it's ran by our old man. You can see how Emma and Senju are in similar circumstances but turned out differently. So Mansaku would hold a few traditional beliefs. Ofc Emma and Senju have their own choices and are different people, but environment plays a factor.

He mentions you to his students in the dojo, like: "gotta end early today because..." or "you guys like the flowers outside? it's for...."

You would probably drop by with a pack of bottled water and he'd keep it in the dojo in some corner if anyone needs.(my dojo sometimes had water BUT YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DRINK TILL AFTER CLASS. HE'D DO THE SAME).

Spaces out while training his students because of you. He'd tell everyone to run laps instead and stop when he says so. Then lose count. (i stg my instructor did that).

You'd be close with Emma. Everyone is. Emma would hope to have love when she's older. Uses your relationship to think about her future with Draken.

Manjiro would have a respectful approach to you. He'd laugh at Emma talking about romance/love or something.

Shinichiro might try to hit on you lowkey. No one is safe from him.

Izana would be happy cause he sees his family growing. He gets to experience what it's like having a grandma. He's respectful to you, his elder and might feel a bit touched.

If you're young, Shinichiro would be weirded out, would hit on you still.

Mikey would be out of the house a lot more, he doesn't wanna see.

Izana isn't even home that much because of Mikey. It's all Mikey's fault (Kazutora is that you?).

If you look young, obviously Shinichiro would hit on you (its as a joke, he don't mean it), Emma would ask for your secret. N/A for Mikey or Izana.

You'd do his eyebrows, or he fixes them up already. NOW *cracks knuckles* time to get serious. Mansaku Sano (Grandpa Sano) Prime.

(Wat is bro doing.)

He's a fast learner.

You're with the coolest guy in his prime.

He's a fast guy.

He's the type to run all the way to your house if you need help or he thinks you need it. I imagine him having some kind of 6th sense.

Surface level he seems stiff, like no emotions. You're likely to have an arranged marriage with him like back then in the good ol days with strict supervision around you two.

But if it's love, then it comes from school.

He's the type to inspire you, he's confident, and his smile shines bright (i imagine him being more like Mikey comforting or reassuring his homies. ex. season 2 when he's driving with Mitsuya at the start, and with Takemichi near the end on his bike).

He's the type to write letters.

This is generations ago, so he's the type to keep his distance physically and be respectful. Even if you make the first move.

His main love language is acts of service.

Since Mansaku is a prodigy (according to himself), he's fierce, and a bit old I imagine to have gone through traumatizing ass casual training to emotions. Which lead him to wanting to aid people and passing that lesson/attribute down. (I mean look at how helpful Emma is wanting to protect her brother, her interactions with Hina, Mikey wanting to help Izana, there's other stuff I can't write from the top of my head, Shinichiro helping Izana, Seishu, Emma, who knows what else he did in his journey).

In an nfsw setting, he's be slow and gentle weather he likes you romantically or not. If you're both emotionally connected or on the same wavelength depending on the context then omg it'd feel so freakin special.

You'd fall first, he'd fall later. As long as you're not a shitty person.

In the end you die. Sano Russian Roulette is what you're signing up for. ♡

Just for the sake of it, I'll say that the dark impulses are something passed down from you. Back then with trad beliefs, it was frustrating growing up. You had a lot of rage. Luckily for you, Mansaku is patient, strong, and he's got that charming smile to keep you grounded.

If you do garden work, he continues to grow the flowers/fruit/veggies you grow cause it's natural for him.

If you show him your favorite meal and he remembers, he made it for himself and you. Too bad you're not here. But your beautiful daughter is.

Crying when your guys' daughter gets married, he feels like he's living his best life when his grandson is born aswell. (If you're dead it really feels like he's able to move on to find happiness, he's healing).

Scared more than ever for the first time in a long time, when his daughter is sick in the hospital. Acts of service to the max, it's a responsibility, a curse, whatever.

Honestly there has to be some kind of superpower thing in this family. We got 2 prodigies in the family(himself and mikey), Shin with powers, grandsons with some kind of raging curse.
