#fuji yuuta

Wow!! We get a little game play with KENN (Yuuta in TeniMiyu) and Kaida Yuki (Syuusuke)!!!

It’s good to see the brothers having a good time, and see old pictures of KENN

Round 1 Collaboration Fuji Syusuke, Inui Sadaharu, Oshitari Yuushi, Shishido Ryou, Gakuto Mukahi, Akutagawa Jirou, Fuji Yuuta, Yanagi Renji, Oshitari Kenya, Saeki Kojiroh

kenya : *sighs* and what did the rookie do this time?

yuuta : he chased the car to the next red light, then reached into their window and...

But, I did do the Valentines event, and now the Horror House event! With the English TeniRabi ending service soon (disappointing, but not unexpected at all) I'll probably have more time and energy for the JP events again.

I tried to pull the gacha for Akutsu, but ended up with multiples of only Fuji and Davide. 😭 Oh well! They helped me get Tohno in just one evening before the event ended, so it's okay.

I really like this Tohno card.. I love the dark vibes, the aesthetic is right up my alley. Great Swords are some of my favorite weapons in fantasy games so that's a big plus. I also didn't have even a single SR or higher rarity of him, this UR is my first non basic card.

The Fuji brothers cards are also very nice, bird theme! Davide's card is, comparatively, a little boring. 😅 Even if the idea of being a jailer could be exciting... 👀

I went ahead and updated my halloween area with new items from this event. \o/ Those castle gates are ENORMOUS lol.... Looks like Count Tokugawa is taking a lone stroll in the gardens.

I mean, in the beginning, Yuuta's obsessed with defeating Syusuke: he has an older brother that is a genius in tennis and people keep comparing them, belittling Yuuta, never really acknowledge him as anything other than Fuji's little brother.

And then, I think about Ryoma, who was also obsessed about defeating his father. Ryoma lives in Nanjiro's shadow in a way that even Yuuta can't understand. For the longest time, his father was his only goal and Ryoma's been playing tennis since he could hold a racket. Nanjiro's famous all around the world, and if anyone knew he and Ryoma were related, they would think that's why he's good at tennis, or that Ryoma isn't good, it's just Nanjiro's influence that got him so far, or they wouldn't stop comparing them.

An example of that: when he went with Sakuno to fix her racket and the guy basically told him to grow up and stop acting like a kid, to be more like Nanjiro and blah-blah-blah, but Ryoma only replied as "I am a kid, I'll do what I want, I'm not my father". 

I'm sure Yuuta and Ryoma would bond over that, over always being under their family's shadow, never being acknowledged as good enough by themselves.

By the time they had that match, Ryoma had already understood that his father couldn't be his only goal. 

Not only that, but Ryoma also reacts to those things in a different way. Yuuta feels hurt, and maybe even a little bit jealous, whenever people talk about him as Fuji's little brother. 

Ryoma doesn't feel hurt, he knows his father is a great tennis player (the best), even if he is just so dumb outside of a court. And, above that, he doesn't feel insecure, like Yuuta does. He feels challenged. Whenever people bring Nanjiro and his relationship with Ryoma, all he hears is "prove me that you are not under your father's shadow" and he proceeds to do exactly that.

So, when he looked at Yuuta and saw how angry he was, how hard he tried, Ryoma decided to be the one to show Yuuta that his brother shouldn't be his only goal either ("You only want to be as good as your brother, I want to be the best"). 

Even if he's the youngest, Ryoma would be the one that always acknowledged Yuuta for himself, that looks at Yuuta as Yuuta, not Fuji's little brother and that motivates Yuuta to go higher and higher.

And, of course, Yuuta would return the favor. Because, even if Ryoma acts more maturely than Yuuta when it comes to this (not because he doesn't get as affected, but because he got used to it, because he's been exposed to it for longer and because he's inherently not a jealous person), he can get annoyed occasionally.
