Give it up for asshole blonde bf and girlfailure pervert gf (togafuka textposts)

Harpy-hare styled masks!!

you can kind of already see a little bit behind the scenes of what went into picking each one but I'll type it out in full.

Gakuhou is represented by the bat - Bats symbolize death and the supernatural, being connected to vampires and all that, but they've also been seen as a symbol of rebirth. and while Gakuhou is more representative of the Stagnation side of Death, he does go through development at the end of the series where he's more open to moving on.

Reaper 2.0 (The Grim Reaper, Shinigami, God of death - whatever you wanna call him) is represented by the jackal - Jackals are notorious for being depicted as cunning tricksters, but they're also a symbol of loneliness and abandonment. Their association from death more so comes from Anubis, but they're also overall connected to the underworld. which is hilarious considering I'm using it to represent The Reaper. It's also neat to point out that using an animal that's knowing primarily as simply and only a symbol of death shows how little else there is to him as a character. assassination is all he knows.

Gakushuu is represented by the ram - Gakushuu doesn't have much depth compared to other characters. He's a lil' shit, he suffers, he changes. The Ram has much more to do with his personality because its vital to him. His leadership, hardheadedness, authority and protectiveness are all things important to him. Rams are fierce competitors - strong, tireless, determined and willing to use every trick in the book to achieve victory. You could also say that having the animal be associated with spring also draws him much closer to whats important to him - education and learning (because the school year in japan starts in spring). I could also mention that in a more modern context the ram is often used as a sacrificial animal, but I don't have the brain cells or the knowledge on Christianity to use that connection to it's full potential.

Korosensei and The Reaper (technically separate characters yet the same one in this case) are represented by the Great Horned Owl and the Barn Owl respectively - There's a lot to say about Korosensei as an Owl, but primarily I'll say that I loved the idea of using both Barn owl and Great horned owl because it showcased a sense of growth in him as well as gave him an air of wisdom (probably since the great horned owl is used as a symbol of learning and literature in many places). There's also an uncanny simplicity and emptiness to the barn owl that felt perfect for The Reaper considering he's meant to be entirely unrecognizable.

One thing I'd like to point out is that All of them are symbols of death in one way or another. Bats are a symbol of death and the supernatural, Jackals are connected to the underworld and the god of death, Rams are associated with death and the underworld, and Owls are a symbol of impending doom and death (As well as a symbol of coming to terms with your own mortality and the inevitability of your death).
