Totsuka and Ichigen meta
This is pretty terrible but also Consta was really keen for it so *throws into wild* enjoy these shoddy bad translationsummarypointsÂ
- Humans have their own influence. - It's formed from their personality, upbringing, status and lifestyle etc and and determines how they live. - People with a lot of influence are often called influencers. Let's combine that with K's term 'Sanctum' to create the term 'Influenctum' - For a developed country's politician or a large company's CEO, their influenctum wouldn't be limited to just one country but can even be international. - But there's also influenctums that aren't dependent on social status. For a musician or novelist, their works can also influence many people. - The influenctum of a person isn't necessarily dependent on their own abilities or intelligence. - Now let's try think of this in terms of K. - Kokujouji Daikaku would have the biggest influenctum. Even if he wasn't the Gold King, with his efficiency and resourcefulness he would still be the political head. - Another person with a big influenctum whether he likes it or not is Suoh Mikoto. In his case he didn't actively use his influence but rather others gathered around him because of his charisma. Not refering to Idol K, but if he were to be musician he would be ridiculously popular. - On the flip side let's talk about two people with small influenctums. Neko also has a small influenctum, but what makes these two different is that if they so desired, they could influence people in all sorts of ways. - That is, Totsuka Tatara and Miwa Ichigen. - First off Totsuka Tatara. Among the three executives of Homura, he's the most social one. Not just towards the members but ordinary people as well and even the opposing Scepter 4. - He doesn't put up a guard, or rather he pretty much doesn't have one, and quickly gets along with anyone. He's got an strong personality and is in the minority when compared to the many unsociable characters of K. His many hobbies also affect his influence. - Totsuka has a soft and whimsical image but in fact isn't incompetant and if he felt like it could grab a few people around him and run a restaurant. - Izakaya "Tatara". With his curiosity and personal connections, he could gather skilled cooks for a cosy izakaya serving international cuisine. 'Surprisingly popular huh' the 2nd staff member (Manager Kamamoto) and 3rd staff member (Manager Shouhei) would say. - Growing in the food industry, surpassing Kusanagi's income, living in an expensive luxury apartment... it's hard picturing that kind of Totsuka, but at any rate, he wouldn't be interested anyway. Basically, he wouldn't unnecessarily expand his own area of influence. If anyone wanted him to, he would, but nothing beyond that. - At its foundation, is 'Following the status quo'. Now that Suoh'd become King, he wanted to show him fun things. The days they had, he wanted to live to the full...(?) He didn't want or need anything more than that. - When others suffer in turmoil, he doesn't avoid reality but faces it head on, standing by them with a soft smile. He has the mentality that things can be made possible through determination alone. (i prob translated this point completely wrong tbh) - This also applies to Miwa Ichigen. Before his body weakened, he made a lot of money through business. Originally he was probably an even more capable member of society than Kusanagi or Munakata. Plus he's the colourless king, the wild card that can disrupt all other kings. - Although he wasn't as lively as when he was younger, if he felt like it he could probably be as influential as Kokujouji. Although not as wide as Kokujouji's his own influenctum was originally incredibly. - Instead he settled down with a smile like in a semi retired state in a small village as a teacher and devoted himself to raise just two disciples. - He wasn't giving up or running away. He liked Haikus. The passing seasons, the everyday life, he wrote them all his own unique (sometimes too unique) sense. He quietly and unwaveringly cherishes, follows and protects the status quo. - It's a hobby similiar to Totsuka with his camera, taking snapshots of the present. (... something about ichigen haiku cherishes the world, while totsuka finds the world interesting) But what they have in common is they go along with the world as it is. - Knowing he's going to die soon, understanding the possibility of ruin now that his important friend had become king... the two accept and face them. They don't look away. - More than any others, they are the ones that don't run away. They will protect the small moment called the present. They cherish the moments they have with others more than anything. - And if anything were to disturb the small present moment, they would take action, without making a racket and without unnecessary action. insert something about K gathering those two + neko idk. bai.
