#joji narushima

Gives you cute nicknames (sweetie, sweetheart, darling, wifey), and said nickname is also your name in his contacts list. When you’re calling, he will definitely make some buzz about it, whether he’s massaging someone’s joints in his orthopedic clinic, training Cosmo and Adam (or Nozomi, Nozomin as he calls her, from ISSK) in his dojo, or just hanging out with Joji.

Kureishi: Oho, what’s this? My sweetheart is calling me, excuse me~ (He earns eye rolls from Adam and chuckles from Cosmo and Nozomi)

Joji: Your wife/husband/partner never hits you. I’m jealous, Kureishi.

Maybe I’m too woke but I HATE how Joji’s domestic abuse and eye-scratch scar are played for laughs because it’s done by his wife each time he comes home from drinking T.T Anyway…

He WILL help out with all the household chores and offer to do them for you. His favorite chore is ironing clothes. 

When he sees you already doing chores, he will always offer to take over. Afterwards, he gives you a massage: his expertise! This man canonically has many certificates not just for being a great martial artist, but also for being a skilled chiropractor. You get Japan’s best chiropractor to give you massages…for free!

If you put him in charge of cooking, he’s going to have a bias towards cooking and serving his own favorite food: curry. After a while of just curry rice, though, he learns to cook different varieties of curry like Thai Curry and Filipino Curry (Kare-Kare), among others.

Compared to his gladiator/fighting arena days in Fist of the Seeker, he’s really mellowed out and will continue to be just as chill in marriage. His “bone-breaking fetish” is purely towards opponents and people he deems dangerous to his loved ones (though he *does* feel some tingles when massaging you and hearing some joints or bones crack. Don’t worry. Unlike before where he’d just “rub one out” in the shower, he’ll kindly ask you to help him with his “problem”, should it get “bigger and harder”.)

 Will only “revert” back to his old ways when he has to beat up someone who wronged you. He was protective of Koga, again, what more with his life partner?

Loves wrapping his arms around your waist from behind and resting his chin on your head (or shoulder if you’re taller) and barraging you with compliments while doing so.

“You smell so good, as always.”, “You’re so cute, so beautiful/handsome.”, “How’d I get so lucky?”, “God, I love you so much.”

Never really thought he’d settle down, given his gladiator past and current background (famous national mixed martial artist/coach and awarded chiropractor). Many have tried, but he either found them shallow, or he just didn’t have the time due to his busy schedule given that he’s got two jobs.

Bought a house after you two got engaged. His apartment days were over the moment you passed 2 years of dating. He was already looking to buy a house and just never told you.

Money was and will never be a problem. Years after the events of FOTS, he’s likely earned quite a bit of cash given that he’s now famous all over Japan as a martial artist and chiropractor. Never had anything else to spend on besides equipment and maintenance of his dojo and clinic, which are in adjacent buildings (to maximize the space and minimize the cost of maintenance and travel). Because of this, he loves spoiling you and getting you little trinkets that you mentioned in passing liking, or outright expensive things you request for. A Rilakkuma teddy bear? Noted. Vivienne Westwood designer goods? Noted as well. Be careful what you randomly say, he WILL end up buying it later. (“Hey, this one looks cool/cute!”, pretends to not notice). 

He (most likely) lives in TOKYO! His dojo and clinic are canonically located in Ochanomizu and he most likely lives within the area, too. Living expenses in Tokyo are insane, a rough estimate being 158,000 yen (over 1000 USD, or 60,000 PHP in my currency). Trust me when I say your future is secure with Mitsuyo.

Not really much of a drinker and only drinks on occasion, unlike his old pal Joji. Perhaps during anniversaries, special holidays, or birthdays. He always advises his orthopedic clinic patients to not drink booze and opt for water instead (Danberu Chapter 21), so you bet he’ll do his best to apply the advice he always gives them to himself.

Will ease off the teasing in the honeymoon stages of your marriage (he’s in the “Swooning, I can’t believe this is my reality now”-rose-tinted shades phase) but goes back to it after a few months or so.

Being the youngest of five siblings, he’s probably gotten tasked with looking after nieces and nephews. I like to think this is one of the reasons he’s a natural at teaching. Because of this, he has never-ending patience. Need help with improving at any chore? He’s got you covered. Prepare for a lot of teasing when he’s teaching you, though. He loves getting a rise out of you. When you’ve reached a “boiling” point, he kisses you on the forehead, cheek, or lips, depending on the severity.

“My sweetheart, so cute, even when you’re angry. Even when your brows are almost one because of how much you’re scowling ♡. I love you so much ♥. (PUNCH HIM!!! You try; he catches your fist and chuckles before kissing it. HE IS INSUFFERABLE!!!)

Related to above, is experienced with kids. Definitely wants lots of them. Proposes to outdo his older siblings and have four or five children. Is excited to get to the point of your married life where you get to call each other “Mama”, “Papa”, “Mommy”, or “Daddy”.

“How is Mama doing today, hmmm ♥?”, “Mitsu…really…?” “No, no, you should be saying “Papa” ♥”

Your kid: “Papa, Papa! I want—” Kureishi: “Hmmhmm, ask Mama/Daddy/Mommy ♡”

Your kid: “Papa, can I go outside to play?” Kureishi: “Mm, I don’t know, can you?”

Teases his kids too, but his favorite person to tease will always be you.

If you can have biological children, they will have his natural pink hair. Sorry. (I refuse!! the anime’s color choice!!! PINK-HAIRED KUREISHI is the only valid Kureishi!)

NSFW

Has gotten around before dating you, mostly short flings, never anything too long-term because of his busy schedule.

Sex…in his chiropractor uniform. Have you SEEN how tightly snug that damn uniform is on him? It’s like he’s doing it on purpose. His muscles and chest are ready to burst out at the seams. He’s definitely closed up shop early or heck, spontaneously to fuck you on his massage table.

Sometimes (around a 50/50 chance. THAT kind of sometimes), massages can lead to sex, it’s up to you if you want to stop his advances or let him continue. He can’t help himself—he loves you too much.

You’re lying on your chest, eyes closed and smiling, thinking today is a normal Mitsuyo Massage Day…and then as he’s massaging your back, he snakes his arm under and fondles your chest, his calloused fingers playing with your nipples. Well. Looks like you were wrong today.

HATES being belittled. Ask him “Is that all you got?”, “Can you go any slower?”, “Is this it?”, “Are you really a martial artist?” and you will open the (white) flood gates. You WILL get folded in half, you WILL get creampied many times, and you WILL not walk for weeks. He will NOT massage you afterwards to teach you a lesson. During these times, aftercare will mostly consist of kisses and praises.

“Hmm?? It hurts? Well, that’s what brats like you get ♡.” *kisses u*

Holds your hand during sex and loves brushing his thumb over your wedding ring. It’s mark and proof that you’re his. (though he does love marking you inside, too)

I WILL make everyone have breeding kinks and LOVE the mating press!!!

Can go for many rounds. He’s a martial artist, what do you expect? Him being in his mid-thirties isn’t an obstacle, either.

A good 6.5-7 inches, not too girthy, but can give you a good stretch. Cum taste ranges from nothing to just a bit salty, making it easy to swallow despite the slight thick texture.

His crushing grip on your thighs, legs, waist, or hips leaves bruises. He does that on purpose. He doesn’t want to break his beloved’s bones, but he does want to leave marks.

Pussy-eating expert!!! Never gets exhausted and will never complain about his tongue being tired or numb. RIDE HIS FACE and he will be a happy man. No such thing as too heavy for this martial artist.

Overall: amazing husband, amazing sex skills, ALWAYS knows what he’s saying and doing. 1000/10

In his drunken stupor, has already traumadumped about his wife hitting him and overall being someone to never mess with. Warns you like he warned Wulong in the side story because he cares a lot about you and would rather be hurt than see you get hurt.

Probably has insecurities because of his wife, but he is very good at hiding it, being an overall chill, nonchalant, yet silly guy as a front. He's the only one who knows. Yes, not even Kureishi or Wulong know. Ends up telling you a bit when you're drinking together.

"I feel like I'm walking on eggshells around her.", "I don't tell her much, I get scared thinking of what she might say or do.", "She's really scary, y'know?" "Can't really act too much like myself around her."

Ask him what he thinks of something outside of fighting and he's not really sure. Doesn't have an opinion. Probably an effect of his marriage.

I headcanon him and his wife dated quickly after a very short time of knowing each other and married just as fast too since by the time of Fist of the Seeker's events, he already has a child.

Also like a different guy when he's with his wife, more stoic and really, really quiet in fear of instigating literally anything, even just by breathing. Only looks in one direction and keeps his hands at his side or behind him.

Despite it all, it is canon that Joji is a family man and loves his family a lot, for better or for worse. He beat down assassins who attacked him on the way home and threatened them to not mess with his family. This is also evident in Omega where he beat down Worm members and Ji for hurting his nephew/second cousin Koga. This also means that he will keep the peace and put up with his wife due to his fear of her, messing up what family his child has, and being judged by those around him since him being hit is never taken seriously (even by the creators themselves)

A catalyst for divorce would be his wife hurting you. With Wulong, he knows he's strong and can probably handle it, but you? You're an innocent, kind, supportive, and good friend who's always listened to him and vice versa. He loves your company and the way you make him feel comfortable, safe, validated, and…you take him seriously. He doesn't want to lose someone like that, and if it means having to separate from his wife and (pray that he gets to) take his child with him, then so be it.

It'll be a rough process, but that is the time when he needs you the most. He will most likely try to drink more often, so you need to be what Joji was for you—take him to restaurants with good food.

As mentioned, his hobby is eating good food, so drinking comes naturally to him. Sure, it's not a vice and he likely earns good money from the Rokushin Kaikan dojo, but it does affect his health. Kind of tries to circumvent this by eating tasty, healthy food, but it's not really enough. Maybe you need to introduce him to delicious alcoholic beverages that don't have much alcohol percentage and show him more food good for the liver. Avocado shakes and ice cream for starters :3

Insecurities flare up even more during the processing of his divorce, too. He wonders if he's taking advantage of you since he's not doing well mentally and emotionally. Needs lots of reassurance that you're here with him because you want to be, no ifs, no buts, no other conditions or ulterior motives. Joji is stunned. He has never experienced anything like this from someone else.

Thinks you don't deserve someone like him. Doesn't really think he's loveable as a result of the years of marriage and abuse from his wife.

You're the one who has to ask him to form a romantic relationship with you since, again, he's worried he's being forward or "taking advantage of the situation". He is unwell. Please be patient with this man, he needs so, so much patience and understanding.

You will also be the first to say "I love you" since he's worried he's being too forward or is trapping you with his love. Again, please be patient with him. It will take some time to undo and heal the hurt and pain he's been inflicted with.

Lives with you in the meantime. Is not used to sharing a bed with you since he used to sleep separately from his wife. Yes, separate bedrooms. Sleeps like a rock at first, scared of bumping into you. Says "sorry" a lot when he changes sleeping positions, but grows comfortable the more you're together and ends up liking cuddling up to you or hugging you close to him as you sleep. Something he has never experienced.

By the time you've spent months together, he's different. In private, he becomes a cuddlebug, eager to kiss and touch you to show you how much he loves you…since you've done the same for him. In public, he holds your hand a lot. Kureishi even notes how he's started smiling around them. Koga thinks you're a great match for his uncle and he seems happier and healthier. Katsuya (from FOTS) is relieved he doesn't have to break up any fights and marital disputes anymore.

NSFW

Strictly only lovemaking in the first few months of being sexually active with you. It's hard to get him to be rough or go faster, he wants to take his time.

Extremely vanilla since he's never experienced such things in sex.

Absolutely loves handholding and kissing you while fucking you. Make him cum in seconds by resting your forehead against his, holding his hand, kissing him, hugging him close to you, legs locked around his waist, and finally, whispering "I love you, Joji" in his ear.

VERY very hesitant to inflict pain on you during sex. If you ask him to spank or bite you, he might panic inside and just. shake his head. "No, no, I can't do that. Not to you, my love. Especially you."

Feels guilty when he accidentally bites your shoulder or collarbone or leaves bruises on you during sex. On your thighs for gripping them too tight, or when he loses control and fucks you too hard. Again, you tell him you really like it and it turns you on a lot more. Just keep telling him and he'll grow to be fine with it.

He's fine with you leaving scratches on his back, though. When asked by his students at the dojo, he tells them, stone-faced as usual, that he just fought another bear, all while the tips of his ears are red.

When the divorce is finalized, expect to have sex without a condom for the first time and for him to finish inside of you. Grows an affinity for this and he didn't expect it from himself.

BODY. WORSHIP. Enjoys giving it mostly, but receiving it, oh receiving it will make him feel so loved and improve his self-esteem. Undo the damage his ex-wife did and kiss his scars, praise his calloused hands and tell him how good they feel on your chest and thighs, how his thick, long fingers feel good inside you, how his thick, girthy cock stretches you and fills you so well, and how much you love feeling his warm cum inside you and dripping from your entrance.

A bit clueless if you ask him to eat you out. He has never done that before. Again, teach him the ropes, say what makes you comfortable and turned on, he will follow every instruction you say to a T. He's eager to learn and even more eager to please.

Is SURPRISED if you want to suck his dick. Has also never experienced a blowjob AND a handjob. He is so deprived. You are literally showing him a whole new world.

Way more sensitive because of this. Yes, even his balls. (You like the way they slam against your ass as he fucks you. You tell him this and he is caught off-guard. Never in his wildest dreams did he ever think someone would ever say that to him, much less someone he loved and cherished.)

Good luck, with how big this man is, it really translates (a bit too well) to his cock, too. 8 inches, big and girthy, balls just as big too (he has all that cum ready to be released inside you, duh!). Gotta be honest though, cum taste is horrible at first, very salty, sometimes bitter, due to his preference of drinking beer alongside whatever beer-suitable food he's eating and won't be easy to swallow at all due to its texture. However, he's willing to change his diet up for you. Tell him to eat fruits (he's grown to love avocadoes due to your suggestions!) and no drinking beer when planning to have sex.

If you're able to have kids and are open to the idea of having them with him, he'd be very happy. Being a sensei in a dojo, an uncle, and a father, he's already a good male figure (barring the drinking and his whimsy if you think that's not a good influence LMAO). He'd want to have a daughter. He would also want to start as soon as possible the moment you say you want to have a kid with him. Ride Joji. Joji fucks you from behind. Joji fucks you as he spoons you. Et cetera.

"You feel so good around my cock." "God, I love you so much. I don't know what I did to deserve you." "One more round." "One more round, please." "I can't get enough of you."

Endless. litanies. of. I love yous. Sometimes with "so much". You'd think he was chanting a prayer with how much he repeats your name followed by declarations of love. What else can he say? You're his heaven-sent partner. Saved and changed him so much for the better. You bet he's going to worship you, but…you worship and praise him just as much. It's a novel experience, but he's grown to love it.

Went this far without mentioning the mating press so…it is one of his favorite positions. Keeping you caged in his arms as he sets a merciless pace, all while being able to see your expressions and seeing you hold onto his arms, your legs up in the air, toes curled, his balls slapping against your ass…it's literally perfect.

Besides that, again he is very vanilla, so he likes missionary, spooning, and cowgirl (getting to hold your hips as he meets your thrusts, yup yup)

Joji takes time to love and to open up, but with enough patience and support, he's a great lover. Someday he wants to propose to you since you've showed him what love is supposed to be. He can't wait for you to show him what marriage is also supposed to be. His love is genuine just as you are with him. Please love and treasure this man.
