#sevastian

I know he’s a prolific VA but tell me why I keep getting jumpscared by this man 😭 This is like the 7th time where I’ve consumed media, went “wow, this voice is nice and it sounds kinda familiar!”, then looked up the VA and found out it was UMEHARA… I don’t think I’ve run into any other TWST VA in the stuff I play/watch to this frequency…

AnYWAY

I wanted to share that Umehara voices this character in a recent GBF story event; it’s a younger version of a 68-year old butler-knight ex-mercenary named Sevastian. In the past, he was known as Wolfe and??? His hair actually looks similar to Leona’s (color and length) and he’s basically this world’s version of a beastman (Erune) and also his cleavage is showing.

Over the course of the story, Wolfe falls in love with a woman. All GBF story events are fully voiced, SO WE CANONICALLY HAVE A L*ONA VOICE CLIP OF HIM SUGGESTING TO ADOPT A Cheka CHILD WITH A HUMAN 💀 AS WELL AS OTHER ROMANTIC LINES… (I mean, yeah, Umehara has also voiced in real otome games but I feel this character is the closest in tone and attitude to Leona, making his lines the most transferrable to TWST.)

P.S. Okay but picture L*ona in this fit, I think he’d kill it—

We also get various lines that feel like things Leona has actually said before or would actually say:

“You’re really going to ignore what I just said and invite me along?” I swear to god Leona has said this before to both Silver and Rook for being overly friendly or insistent that he join them for an activity.

“I, on the other hand, wish you could vacate my life permanently,” sounds like a sarcastic formal comeback he’d pull out when forced to put on airs but he still wants to insult the other person. HIS PETTY ERA………………. ……. …… ….. … . .. ….. .. . … .. . . .. . . .

Those are only two examples, but there’s a lot more on the actual event story OTL

The first is Sev's having an insecure moment and he's like trying to hide it. It's a physical insecurity. Maybe his skin sucks, maybe he has a new zit or acne, something Wil barely noticed, but he notices that Sev is trying to hide from him in the afterglow. And it's terrifying to admit-that not only that he has acne, but he's self concious to this new lover that is becoming someone he's serious about. What if Wil doesn't want someone insecure? He's so-secure and Sev's just-not. But he trusts him too. This isn't new new. They spend too much time outside of sex for it to be so vapid.

So he opens up. About how insecure he can be over his looks. About how he doesn't deserve Wil to call him gorgeous, because he's not. He's so ugly and undeserving. And Wil just assures him that he's gorgeous. And he knew Sev was insecure. Afterall, the holoclip G7 was stuck on was "Ugh I feel so gross, don't look at me!" after claiming he had a giant zit that wasn't that big.

Sev had no idea THAT was the holoclip that Wil has always raved about his beauty in. He groans and dives under the covers, pulls them over his head and says something about "going to die." Wil laughs, delighted, and reaches for the bundle to tickle it and Sev giggles. Wil insists he was gorgeous and he still is.

When he's allowed to peel back the covers, they're both laughing and smiling into the kiss. Wil continues to call him beautiful and nothing can be fixed in one night-they both know it deep down, but the next week, there's a lot more top of the line skin products on the refresher counter where they made out for the first time. Sev stares at it for a good two minutes, knowing they're for him but also wondering if he's allowed to touch.

He's much more content with his appearance in a couple months and those weeks, the silent appearing of products, the way that everytime he leaves the refresher after putting product on, the kisses are a bit more quieter, the assurances of love and beauty less flattering and more... genuine. Something that will sustain them for years to come.

Just something light and fluffy but also supportive and deep.

As a quick disclaimer this is just my personal opinion. I loved all of the series except for one. So this is really just a ranking of which ones I liked more than the others.

#3

This is one of the only series where I genuinely loved every route. Every single LI. I am honestly having a hard time picking a favorite, maybe Piama or Xenia.

I loved the setting, I think it was beautiful. I also thought the world they created was interesting.

The MC in this series is one of my favorites. I love how in almost every route she worked up from being a poor peasant to being queen. She stands up for her beliefs, and she doesn’t put up for the council’s nonsense. One of my favorite things was with every route we got to see a slightly different side of the MC.

The CGI’s for this series were all so beautiful ❤️
