Tired Of These Losers Flirting

are they stupid on purpose

The moment that everyone has been waiting for, I present; why I think Rui is autistic, or at the very least, neurodivergent, the sequel!!! This is the second part to this post that I made a few months ago, so feel free to check it out if you want. - 1. For starters, I would like to talk more about Revival My Dream, as it provided a lot to work with. When Rui asks his mom if he really is different from the other children because that was what his peers and teachers had been calling him due to his intelligence, she agrees and says that he is different from the other kids without specifically using the word "smarter", which suggests that his eccentricities and isolation did not come from his high intelligence alone.

Upon reassuring him that it's alright to be different and sympathizing with his situation, her advice to him was to simply cherish the things that he likes and he would soon find people who support and accept him for him, rather than about his intellectual prowess being in use.

Following this, an interview that he watches, which ends up significantly impacting his mindset concerning shows, uses the term "minorities" among other examples of audiences to express that people can share the feelings that shows invoke no matter how different they are. This wording can imply that he is also a sort of minority, too.

(tl by Arvon Oven on YouTube) - 2. He's blunt / straightforward and struggles to empathize with people. His bluntness is more noticeable during the rare occasions that he's upset at somebody else, with the Main Story and Smile Of a Dreamer being examples of this.

There's also a segment during A Once-In-A-Lifetime Pandemonium!? where Taniyama expresses his envy at Rui getting such good scores on tests, which he responds to by saying that it is indeed nice because it means that he can focus more on shows. Taniyama then exclaims that he should at least be more humble.

The second point is quite downplayed. Once again returning to Revival My Dream, when he proposes that he and his classmates make a show together that includes one of them jumping out of a second story window to a nearby tree, he's unable to understand why they're so afraid, and even jumps out of the window himself without any safety precautions in place aside from a safety mat to prove that it was safe.

(tl by Arvon Oven on YouTube) I was going to add more but forgot what, so that is it I fear !!! thank you for attending my yap session

The amount of people that mischaracterizes Rui as being an insane cannibal actually drives me insane. Like, are we looking at the same character. He literally broke his phone trying to help an old lady out of a busy street during Once-in-a-lifetime-pandemonium?! He also gave a balloon animal to a lost child during one of the side stories, and he also talks to flowers and makes sure nobody steps on them. rui literally doesn't even eat his veggies, how is he gonna eat a person

Can we stop mischaracterising Rui Kamishiro as a sadistic cannibal that shoots babies for fun and can we stop mischaracterising Tsukasa Tenma as a secretly depressed edgelord who hates acting ok thanks bye

I think we should talk about Leo/Need more

During middle school, Ichika had to deal with Saki being hospitalized then having a falling out with Honami and Shiho directly after due to Shiho and Honami both becoming victims of bullying and not wanting to drag Ichika down with them. Ichika didn't even get an explanation as to why Honami and Shiho were leaving her either, she just got told "I don't want to be your friend anymore." and it got left at that. Even though Ichika still attempted to reach out, she got little in response and became extremely lonely as a result. Ichika blamed herself for the groups falling out and carried a lot of guilt about it for years; she felt listless and empty. She felt even guiltier since she was hiding the fact from Saki, who was already lonely and isolated enough as it was due to being hospitalized. Ichika spent 2 years all alone, no other friends, trying to get Shiho and Honami to talk to her, but all her efforts were fruitless. All she wanted were her childhood friends back During middle school, Honami was a big people-pleaser due to the overwhelming fear of being hated by other people. She was bullied because she had the tendency to befriend and show sympathy for people in different friend groups and avoided picking sides, to the point that she was accused of sucking up to others to avoid being hated and was called two-faced. She was treated as an outcast in her class. Once the next school year rolled around, she was afraid of being bullied again by her new classmates and only hung out with a small group of people, and subsequently, she started avoided Ichika and Shiho. Even after she started hanging out with that small group of people, Honami became wary that she'd be ostracized and hated all over again if she even made one small mistake. In one of Kanade's side stories, Honami admitted that she had the desire to "disappear" before. During middle school, Shiho preferred solitude and being by herself. She'd reject her classmates invitations to hang out, and ultimately, people started talking bad about her due to her aloof demeanor. Shiho didn't mind the gossip or rumors, but once people started talking bad about Ichika as well by default since she hung out with Shiho, Shiho pushed Ichika away and distanced herself from her in order to protect her. Since Honami was being bullied as well during that time, the two gradually grew apart once they both decided to stop interacting with the friend group. Shiho was in the light music club during middle school, and got frustrated due to the members lack of work and dedication. Once she brought it up, the club got into an argument which subsequently caused them to split up, only further worsening Shiho's reputation. She didn't mean to hurt either Ichika or Honami, all she wanted to do was protect them from getting hurt by her bad reputation. During middle school, Saki was hospitalized all throughout the duration of it due to her weak body and chronic illness. She was bedridden for days on end, and was extremely isolated and lonely. She questioned why she was the way she was, and was extremely jealous of people who could experience life normally. She never got to experience things like playing tennis, travelling or even going to school due to her poor health. Outside of immediate family, Ichika was the only one to visit her in the hospital, which she deeply appreciated. Whenever anyone visited her, Saki put on a brave face and smile so she wouldn't further upset anybody, despite how empty and hurt she was deep down inside. She'd spend her days crying without anyone there to comfort her, and often worried that she'd never get better. While in the hospital, she was completely oblivious to the groups falling out since nobody ever told her, and she only realized after being discharged from the hospital. Instead of making fun of Leo/Need for not being the most visually striking and having "boring" personalities, I think you should actually read their group stories, cause all of their lore is really interesting

these came to me in a dream

Colorful Palette just adds the most heart-wrenching dialogue into pjsk before promptly scurrying off as if I'm not rocking back-n-forth sobbing my eyes out rn I was reading the first side story of Kanade's 2* card from the Guiding a Lost Child to What Lies Beyond event and got hit with

It's okay... Because you found me again, Kanade... Huh...? Mafuyu, if you're okay with that person being me, I'll keep finding you as many times as you need...

HUUUUUUHHHH?????????? I'M SORRY HWAT ??? COME AGAIN?????

According to an article in CGWORLD magazine, during the concept stages for Tsukasa’s King of Smiles costume, a joker card design was initially proposed based on it being the trump card. However, this was later scrapped in favor of a King design. 

Additionally, a phoenix motif was also considered (based on Phoenix Wonderland, according to design notes), though this was also dropped. This may have inspired the joker/jester-themed Hidden Circus set being paired with Tsukasa’s third event, Towards the Phoenix at the Sky’s Edge.

I've seen something similar to this where Tsukasa has a crush on Rui and the plushies in the sekai start to become more physically affectionate with him

i love the fact that the wonderlands sekai is created from tsukasa's feelings, and i like to imagine how much his feelings can affect the sekai and vocaloids that inhabit it.

for instance, usa-chan is in the sekai, but what else? do you think there are some of rui's robots? like the dragon one from their new years show, or the zombie ones from the halloween show. it's so fun to think about.

i imagine if tsukasa had a crush on rui (using him as an example because i love rks), it would affect the vocaloids, especially miku and kaito, since they are the two that are the most strongly connected to the sekai. would miku become more clingy as a manifestation of tsukasas thoughts and feelings? would kaito tend to pay more attention to him? (obviously neither in a romantic way between them and rui, as they are just tsukasa's feelings.)

also, since tsukasa was able to create an entire world, do you think his feelings would be able to manipulate the sekai? if he was going through a hard time, would it become a bit more empty?

again, if he had a crush on rui, would it be able to create a small space just for them two? a place for them to relax and cuddle and all things like that? i love the idea of that and i need to know how much of an influence tsukasas feelings have on the sekai, especially because he is the sole creator of it.

Seeing that Hamilton exists in the Pjsk universe according to Nene's colorfes card, does that mean that Hatsune Miku binder Thomas Jefferson does too

oh the sole creators of their respective sekai's and their self-soothing behaviors
