with the recent project sekai x persona 5 collab i am now reinvigorated in my desire for a the world ends with you collab.
here are my suggestions for some covers (which is way too many to be realistic but this is already my pipe dream so whatever):
miku - “twister” (it’s the main theme and all)
leo/need - “calling” (definitely one of the most iconic twewy tracks + i think the lyrics loosely fit their story with going pro)
more more jump! - “déjà vu” (there’s not much of any songs that i think have a great sound for them. they’ve certainly done love songs before. this one’s not as iconic, and wasn’t even in the original jp release of the game, so definitely a stretch among stretches)
vivid bad squad - “hybrid” (i think you could give almost any track to vbs and it would fit. like l/n’s this is iconic + the lyrics fit loosely + as a bonus this has a JP version)
wonderlands x showtime - “owari-hajimari” (the sound is not really them, but the lyrics are kinda goofy so i think it would work if they let the vas have fun with it. and there’s a JP version + it’s fairly iconic)
nightcord at 25 - “long dream” (i thought about “emptiness and ” for them but it’s got similar weird status to “déjà vu” of not being in the original release and not really being on an official release of the ost + it has no JP version (well neither does long dream i suppose))
tenma siblings - “someday” (i think the lyrics are kinda cute for them + has a JP version)
hinomori siblings - idk sorry :/ i’m open to suggestions
shinonome siblings - “the one star” (this one might be self indulgent as fuck but i think the lyrics kinda work)

‣ the person with the xenoblade 3 themed profile choosing to do a xenoblade 3 themed crossover? whaaaat?
‣ if you know nothing about xenoblade (which i assume is most people) this probably won’t make a ton of sense, but i nonetheless am going to explain my thoughts
‣ machina!nene is probably pretty obvious bc of the robonene connection. since she already has purple eyes i pulled colors from mwamba, and combined the metal plating + light details from him and lanz. had to do the silver/white hair
‣ i will admit high entia!toya was done partly just so i could make his headwings two different colors to match his hair. he did have a kinda bird-themed set tho, so i think it fits. plus the fancy rich classical musician just feels very high entia. tho being a half-blood high entia actually doesn’t feel fitting of toya’s father but by 3 you’re lucky to be a high entia with medium headwings and they were already a nightmare to figure out rendering at this size
‣ gormotti!airi was again kinda obvious. she’d want to be a cat girl. and i based her ears more on nia + her family so the trans metaphor theme continues. gormotti designs are actually wildly varied with how “animalistic” they are, and then you throw nia in, and without getting into spoilers, her ears are more back-facing than other gormotti so it’s just all over the place
‣ tantalese!honami was kinda just a vibes/for variety’s sake thing. i can’t recall rn if there are any distinctly tantalese (or urayan for that matter) characters in 3, but logistically there should be, so i decided it’s more fun this way.
‣ i happened to have a online music group (ie, nightcord-esq) swap unit with these four and 3/4 of them were featured in this card set (which as stand alone art is one of my favs) so i decided on these four! i could (and might) do more/all characters at some point (it would have to wait till my winter break, i’m so swamped with school rn 😓😓) since i already have plans for everyone (except VSs). i wanted each of the the units to have an even kevesi/agnian split, and it ended up working out that the first two and latter two characters in each pjsk group worked as an kevesi + agnian pair, so they could all be ouroboros pairs, too! (i wonder, would that make the VSs moebius?)

transparents by @/sekaitransparents of course!
‣ i wanted to pick/adjust the colors manually, so having the transparents to clipping mask onto was a big time saver!
‣ ena i found really easy. i wanted to go from pink-tinted-brown to green-tinted-grey, but the bright light green just looked so cute i decided to be less exact with the “opposite” colors. she mostly wears pinks and various shades of brown, so i went with greens and cool-toned greys.
‣ i was having a having a way harder time with akito and had to let it sit for a few days. my first attempt is below. i tried to go for a similar blue to kaito for the hair + a purple jacket to be opposite the yellow hoodie. i wasn’t quite happy with it, but i figured it was just the difference feeling “cursed.”
‣ i happened to decide to rewatch saiki k, when i realised kaido had the color scheme i was going for (blue hair + red eyes) and i decided to give akito another shot. i went for the light blue hair and i kept the black top over colored garment to match the black jacket over yellow hoodie. and just kinda vibed the rest of the fit.
‣ their backgrounds were already opposite color schemes (pink + green and orange + blue) so i just slapped gradient maps over them with each others’ colors
‣ and of course i had to add lil headcanons!! ena with the black nails and akito with an eyebrow piercing! i usually give akito silver jewelry, so i went for gold metal here

!!spoiler warning for all three of the numbered xenoblade games!! mostly the first two actually. i imagine if any reads this, it will be a curious pjsk fan who doesn’t really care about xenoblade, but proceed at your own risk.
…
i have ideas for all of the pjsk characters i just don’t have the patience to draw them all out.
i wanted all the natural pairs set up by the game to be one agnian/one kevesi so they could be ouroboros. they’re also probably all off-seers or wannabe off-seers because that’s really the only music in aionios.
i’ll at least talk about vbs here.
toya is the off-seer for a kevesi colony. he has a pretty high percentage of high entia blood, so he still has pretty big headwings (compared to others in 3, not pure blood high entia) but they match his hair color. for some reason his dad feels like the type who would have been a high entia blood purist, but toya made it to aionios somehow so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
akito is agnian and would become toya’s ouroboros partner. he’s also an off-seer, but like mio he probably got drafted into the role due to his prowess when he really just wanted to be a great fighter and make it to his homecoming. he’s gormotti and has the cat ears. also face stripes. they might just be a nia thing but i think they’re fun. i imagine you don’t see his core crystal much like taion, but he could have a flesh eater’s core crystal.
if i’m remembering correctly, agnian colonies commonly have two off-seers, so an would be in the same colony as akito. i feel like she definitely has to have the fire hair like sena and brighid. like she’s already got the gradient, it’s perfect. i don’t imagine her having a peculiarly shaped core crystal, but she could have ether lines like sena as well. she probably is more naturally in tune with off-seeing than akito, but he has the edge in combat. they probably has a similar relationship to canon where they poke fun at each other and argue, but they take care of each other when things get rough.
for kohane i think she comes from a different kevesi colony than toya. her colony’s off-seer just died unexpectedly, so kohane took up the mantle as the new off-seer for the colony. maybe toya’s colony is nearby so he helped train her like crys with noah. i know there’s like a kevesi off-seer school/training program but i don’t care. kohane is just a basic homs like noah. an is her ouroboros partner, too
[edit:]
as far as combat stuff, i think kohane is an attacker, an would be an attacker, but in more of a debuff-y way, akito a dodge tank (i picture him similarly to mio), and toya could be a healer.
i think the flutes are customized to the off-seer in game? so everyone gets a custom one + a charm. toya’s charm is a wing but i might change it later. akito’s is a lightning bolt. an’s is a star. not sure about kohane yet either but maybe she’ll just have a ring similar to noah since she’s new to off-seeing.
also thinking toya maybe caught the eye of a consul while in off-seer and was taught violin. i’m not sure if off-seer flutes are made specifically somehow that allows the special motes to rise, but i say toya’s violin is customized and it can raise motes.
maybe the way toya’s dad is worked in is that he’s the consul (tho not literally toya’s bio dad then) that teaches toya violin, and then toya has a whole arc about coming to terms with the fact consuls are bad because he was close to one.
he’s temporarily at kohane’s colony teaching her when the whole ouroboros thing happens.
toya’s instrument could be worked into his blade like glimmer, but i kinda like the idea that it’s an actual instrument not made for battle in anyway. and it means he gets to stand over a battlefield and play a haunting violin melody.
Hi Tech!!! For the music ask game, 1, 9, 10, and/or 23 :D
hello fish!! thank you for the ask!! <3
also i’m doing two for all of these because i’m indecisive, want to talk about more music, and then i can do one pjsk/vocaloid related and one otherwise. and they’re in whack order because that’s the order i answered them in.
(also strap in, this got long lol)
★ 10: A song that makes you sad
▸ one more light - linkin park
just the fact that the whole message of the song seems to be “stay alive. there’s always someone out there that cares for you. *i* care for you.” but knowing the circumstances of chester bennington’s death, this song always hits me particularly hard.
▸ cinema - ayase (YOASOBI) - performed by vivid bad squad
right off the bat had to put cinema. the blorbo feels are real. every time i read the lyrics while listening to it i want to cry (or i do cry). akito shinonome what have you done to me. (told me there’s always hope is what he did. look at him. he gave me bittersweet hope.)
★ 23:A song that you think everybody should listen to
to me there’s two ways to read this prompt. “i think everybody should listen to this because i’m obsessed with it” and then there’s “i think this is a good song for everybody to listen to”
first option ▸ “ÅMARA (the great intelligence)” - sasakure.UK!!!!!!!
i have fallen in love with the otherworldly sound and the sci-fi/post-future visuals of the MV. also miku and kaito just sound beautiful. i do appreciate very realistic vsyth tuning, but i also really like when composers lean in to the inherent electronic sound to produce something that feels incomplete when sung by humans. however i would say the MV calls for a minor body horror warning and an eye contact warning!
second option ▸ “a symptom of being human” - shinedown
shinedown is a solidly “dad rock” band, but because of my dad it’s very special to me. also i am a huge sucker for any song that’s message is “we’re all human. we’re all a little weird, but we’re all still people.“ even if it’s a little cringe i still always love it. i think everyone feels at some point like they’re somehow different than everyone else, an alien, an outsider, broken somehow. so i love any song that says “that’s OK. we have differences. but we are all still humans, and we all deserve to find happiness and peace of mind because of that.”
★ 1: A song you like with a color in the title
▸ white rabbit - egypt central
gonna be honest, i don’t know anything else by this band. think this is kinda their one big hit
▸ close to gray / infinitely grey / kagirinaku haiiro e - surii - performed by nightcord at 25:00 / 25-ji, nightcord de.
shinonome siblings’ comms never miss let me tell you. they’re also literally both me. like i relate to ena in many ways. both shinonomes mean so much to me </3
★ 9: A song that makes you happy
▸ upside down - set it off
this song is like whatever the reverse of personification is for a silly little guy. it’s a little dumb and dorky but the stupidly upbeat protagonist never fails to make me smile because it’s so hilariously optimistic. i know a lot of set it off fans (at least the ones i know irl) prefer their heavier albums (and i’m really happy with the singles they’ve been putting out since they got away from that label) but upside down always feels to me like the band themself wanted to experiment more with making lighter music, rather than them being pushed that direction by the label (which i feel happened somewhat with elsewhere)
▸ wah wah world - giga and mitchie m - performed by hatsune miku, minori hanasato, and azusawa kohane
this song is also very silly and fun. it perfectly fits minori and kohane to me. two cute girls with a lot of determination and a bit of an “edgy” side! it’s also way better than sekai (the song). sorry but it’s true idk how it happened
when you get this, you can answer with 5 things you like about yourself (if you want to), and then send this ask to 10 of your followers (or as many as you want to, spread positivity, but take care of yourself)
adskahdsjalhskadhsksl this was way harder than it should have been so it took me a while to get to it…
1.) i suppose to start, i have always been happy with my body. i don’t experience much of anything in the way of dysphoria (aside from the constant hairstyle debate) and i have enough natural athleticism that i can move my body weight if need be (i.e. pulling myself up onto/over something) which for whatever reason is something i’ve always been proud of. my ability to scale a mid-sized wall.
2.) i also like, or at least appreciate that i absorb and retain information quite well. while my actual work ethic may not be great, i am able to do pretty well in academics just from info sticking with me pretty well. i think i learn stuff well in general.
3.) i have been pretty happy with my art lately, or at least i’ve felt a lot more like it’s worthy of been posted and seen by others. i have so many ideas, and i want to draw more often.
4.) i guess i like that i can take charge and overcome my shyness/social anxiety when someone else doesn’t want to. i guess the older sibling instinct outweighs the people are scary instinct. pretty sure the people in my group for the freshman seminar presentation loved me because i would—for whatever reason—just run my mouth until whoever came to see our project left.
5.) i guess it’s not really about me, but i’m really glad that i’ve been able to have so many great people around me. sure, my little brother is going thru his teenage asshole years, but we have each other’s backs when we’re out. not to mention all my close friends have been such wonderfully kind, talented, and inspiring people and we’ve stuck together with minimal drama for a while. for that i’m certainly grateful.
uhhhh uhhhhhhhh uhhhhhhhhhh i got all serious and rambly uhhhhh uhhhhhhhhh MY DOG BE UPON YE
