#anime drop

To celebrate my first fictional husband's birthday, I decided to finally make fanart of him… It's literally been over 6yrs since I was into the whole Naruto anime and then got into the Transformers rabbit hole… My entire online persona was inspired from him since Kusaki (草木) literally means greenery or vegetation while Kakashi Hatake (カカシ はたけ) means "Scarecrow" and "Field"… Even the 15 in my username indicates his birth date 🤣🤣🤣

2017 - These were all under "Minori" not "Kusaki" yet

2019 - yes its a self-insert 🤣

I saw a clip of As a Reincarnated Aristocrat on tiktok while doomscrolling so I thought I would try and see if it was good and I ended up watching the entire first season from midnight til 5am... Ngl its your typical isekai anime and its fairly predictable but goddamn if its not endearing... I actually cried by ep7 which was like at 3 in the morning... I have little faith in the oversaturated genre of isekai animes so this was an absolute joy to binge...

As to why I ended up liking Couran is coz this mf is voiced by Kakashi's VA from Naruto and I was losing my mind moreso coz I got back into Naruto again not too long ago and I DIDNT EVEN KNOW HE'D BE IN THIS ANIME!!! Im still sus of Couran and his motivations but goddamn this was an entirely pleasant surprise...

Also I couldn't wait for s3 to come out so my ass decided to read the Light Novels from the beginning just so I could know the entire picture coz honestly Im very intrigued by the world building and politics of this series...

Also... the character progression is wild... He looks really cool in the LN and absolutely intimidating but the redesign he took on the manga was also really good...
