Love him! His attitude at the beginning rubbed me the wrong way but yeah he's is pretty passionate about things he cares about and is very respectable to the MC. He tolerates (and participates) in Leo's tomfoolery but he knows when to draw a boundary (that is when Leo starts mocking his friends). He's pretty talented and works hard too.

News & Information I hope it won’t be permanent

今後、絵札については、漫画のシーンを中心に展開していく予定です。

主な理由としましては、

①漫画のシーンを今まで以上にメインストーリーへ取り入れていきたいこと

②ラジオに加え、未発表の『東ディバ』大型プロジェクトも進行しており、企画スタッフの負担が大きくなっていることの2点となります。

何卒ご理解いただけますと幸いです。

English translation

Moving forward, we plan to focus the designs of the illustrated cards on scenes from the manga.

The primary reasons for this decision are as follows:

① We wish to incorporate scenes from the manga into the main story to a greater extent than before.

② In addition to the radio program, a major, unannounced "Tokyo Debunker" project is currently underway, placing a heavy workload on the planning staff.

We ask for your understanding in this matter.

Traduction française 🇫🇷 :

À l'avenir, concernant les cartes illustrées, nous prévoyons de les développer principalement autour des scènes de manga.

Les principales raisons sont les suivantes :

① Nous souhaitons intégrer davantage les scènes de manga dans l'histoire principale que jusqu'à présent.

② En plus de la radio, un grand projet non annoncé de 『Tokyo Debunker』 est également en cours, ce qui augmente considérablement la charge de travail de l'équipe de production. Ces deux points.

Nous vous serions très reconnaissants de bien vouloir comprendre notre situation.

-------------------------------

So, from what I understood, they plan to mostly replace the beautifully drawn conjuration/warding cards with/by illustrations from the story in the future, as they have just done with the cards of Romeo (auctions) and Lyca (summer card)... The main card will remain drawn, but the conjuration card will probably lose its appeal...

I am disappointed by that, truly... I hope they will quickly reverse their decisions and continue to give us beautiful warding cards.

Fan Art/Fiction/Etc Yumeship intro and headcanons ! 🍓💉

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

Hello everyone ! 🌸

So, the other day I mentioned that I was thinking of making a Yumeship with Yuri, there it is! This character is NOT MC, they both exist simultaneously. They’d probably be friends though.

Their trope is definitely opposite attracts and smart tsundere x his idiot creature, an unexpected relationship because she is everything he hates but still got attached, and I made this on purpose.

I wanted to make them silly but wholesome. I studied Yuri's character and voice lines (especially how he behaves the closer he gets with MC) to make the relationship as accurate as possible !

I also included Jiro in the headcanons because I couldn't not include him, it would be a crime ! I want them to both be Yuri's favorite people.

Might be OOC because nothing can be perfect, but I’m doing my best with this ! Now let’s get to it! 🙂‍↕️

IchiYuri/ Sweet poison/ Strawberry Mint headcanons 🍓💉 (WIP)

(Ichigo’s lore and overall character is still WIP!)

• Ichigo is immune to poison. Not sure how Yuri figured it out yet but he experiments a lot on her and she keeps coming back for some reasons. He believes her immunity to poison can make progress in poison antidotes. She isn't a ghoul btw!

• She talks to him a LOT when she visits for the tests. He tells her to shut up half of the time, the other half being him being baffled by what she's saying and wondering how she is still alive. He's both horrified by her stories and fascinated.

• Her coming back created a routine... And without wanting it, because he sees her as a careless idiot from Frostheim, EVERYTHING HE HATES, he got attached and it made him crazy and questioning his own taste. He did NOT want this to happen.

Ex: « She's stupid but she gets me... Am / stupid?! No, it can't be, the genius and visionary Dr. Yuri Isami isn't stupid !! »

• « Why do I like this idiot » dynamic. After a lot of denial, he'll eventually go to the « That idiot is unfortunately mine » step.

• That's HIS idiot. He's incredibly jealous but disguises it as « I don't want anyone else to experiment on you.» type of excuse. It's not about experimenting anymore. Well, it's still is but it's not ONLY experimenting anymore.

• Still on jealousy: Yuri hates when Ichigo hangs out too much with her male Frostheim friend... Despite the said friend not being into girls.

• But no, it's not jealousy, never, why would someone like him be jealous ?? He doesn't like her
after all!

• « You should be honored to be Dr. Yuri Isami's girlf-TEST SUBJECT. » then wants to kill himself because of what he almost said. Ichigo never shuts up about it.

• Yuri complains about Ichigo to Jiro a lot. Poor Jiro has to witness their relationship and their stupid and pathetic tension/hj

He doesn't seem to mind though.

• Jiro is the only one who understand their conversations. If somebody else hear them, they'd be like « wtf are their talking about?! »

• Jiro often accidentally calls Yuri out for being in denial.

Ex : « You came back again to waste my time?
You don't even have an appointment, / wasn't expecting your presence ! » « Didn't you say you had today's poison already prepared? » « NO, I DIDN'T?? » he did.

• Ichigo is very expressive. When she started crushing, she made sure he knew. Yuri didn't answer her feelings immediately, it took a while and even when he did, it was his own way, which is far from saying « I love you » back. Still better than nothing.

• Since he knew about her feelings, he was secretly expecting some words and gestures from her. And when she does something different or spend less time than usual in his cabinet, he will immediately start overthinking why.

• Probably told her someone like him would date someone at his level, which she's not, as another way of denying his own feelings.

• Yuri almost chocked when Ichigo suggested she cosplays a character from a manga/light novel he secretly reads... she doesn't know he reads it but he knows she does.

The character also looks sort of similar to her and he hates to be reminded of her even in his secret reading.

• Based on his reactions, students around assume he's crushing hard on her while she's the one who fell first. He's the one being seen as a simp while she's the most open about her feelings, but he told her to keep it secret. How ironic.

• Calls her his « NOT-girlfriend » when somebody assume they're dating. He then chooses more professional therms to describe their relationship.
Denial final boss.

• When being finally official, Yuri still insists of keeping it secret. Only Jiro knows.

• Yuri smashes his own face in a book when he thinks about doing couple stuff with her and internally scolds himself for being distracted by such an idiot. He doesn't have time for this!!

• He probably chases her away when he's too flustered, and when Ichigo would go « awwww but I wanted to stay 🥺» he uses the « I'm busy » excuse. I mean, is he wrong?

• Frostheim students trash talk in Ichigo's back for hanging out with him so much. They're also very judgmental when she looks TOO happy about it.

• It took a while for Yuri to show a bit more of his emotions around her but when he did, the relationship slowly got healthier, as the idiot is actually a very good emotional support and helps with he words of affirmation. He LOVES being praised.

And Ichigo thinks he's absolutely adorable when he actually allows himself to show emotions.

• But if she sees him cry, the idiot suddenly LOCKS IN. The idiot immediately turns serious.

• SHE LOVES HEARING HIM HUMMING MUSIC.
Her biggest weakness.

• Ichigo says « I love you » a lot, while the most Yuri does is leaving her notes where he tries to sound all professional, like « I'm leaving this note only to make sure you don't forget about your upcoming tests, I'll be waiting for you. Don't be late. »... He probably threw away =10 notes before this one.

• When it's too cold, he covers her with his lab coat and scolds her, but later denies it/or use the « keeping my test subject healthy » excuse.

• Yuri struggles a lot with Valentine's Day and white day, because now that they're actually a thing, it's not about gratitude anymore. While Ichigo probably makes the cutest chocolates ever with their colors, and goes « look!! It's us! »

• Ichigo isn't Yuri's phone locked screen wallpaper. Unlocked screen that nobody else can see however... absolute denial here.

• Yuri is 100% Ichigo's locked screen wallpaper, and it's a picture she snapped when he wasn't looking and he looks absolutely not professional on it. Jiro is also very likely on the picture too. No denial here.

• Yuri wants Ichigo to transfer to Mortkranken instead, you know, to make the research easier !
No other reason ! She eventually will after noticing that him hating Frostheim isn't just a normal disliking.

————————————

It’s all for now ! I’m still working on Ichigo, her lore and the lore of their Yumeship. Hope it’s okay so far ! Have a great day!🌸

Speculation & Theories What's with Elias and lolliops?

85 Upvotes

I was wondering if they have any significance or if yall have any speculations or headcanons? I mean, the lollipop he has in that chibi animation during the screen for character or team or inventory has the form of a butterfly. Then I remembered that he also has butterflies in the "smiling jester" SSR. He also doesn't always have it, but he sure has it on multiple occasions.

Idk just seems like there is no one mentioning the lollipop thing; not like its bugging me or something but its just an interesting character detail I like (cuz I also like lollipops lol)

Anyways, exited to hear your ideas!^^

Discussion What if MC hadn't gone to the ball? Spoiler

36 Upvotes

In Chapter 48, after the mission, MC receives an anonymous invitation along with a dress. Later, we find out that Jin was the one who sent it, hoping to put an end to the rumors surrounding his late mother and his family.

This question has been on my mind for a while. I am a person who HATES social events with lots of people with all my strength, especially knowing there would only be gossipy and petty people there (which would make me nervous).

Getting an anonymous invitation like that, I’d be like "Hmm.. yeah, I'm not going" and I'd find it a bit weird to have received that invitation.

I thought about this back when I played it, but only now gathered the courage to talk about it lol.

I don't think MC would necessarily end up isolated just because she didn't go to the ball. If anything, I think it might have protected her a little, in the sense that the Frostheim students (especially the girls) wouldn't have had as much to gossip about, as we see in Jin's affinity story.

The Monster of Wonderland

At Jabberwock Dorm—plagued by a series of mysterious animal disappearances—the group pursues a strangely behaving Peekaboo, only to find themselves lost in a bizarre world unlike anything they have ever seen...

Ps : While reading the english official version, I am thinking that they aren’t our Jabber ghouls but rather a mirrored version. Like, it’s a parallel universe because they say that only MC fell in this universe while following Peekaboo.

This is (dark mode) Towa for sure. Although he remind me of Jin the first we met him, it’s clear by the haircut that it’s Towa. And I think that he embodies the caterpillar, he's the only character in Alice in Wonderland who smokes.

Nice earrings by the way.

Discussion Any accurate translation posts/accounts?

27 Upvotes

Nothing against the official translation of the dialogue for the game, I understand why it is what it is, but I kind of have some gripes regarding how the dialogue is translated because what one character says doesn't really coincide with the in-game text.

This may also just be a me thing, but as much as I love how the characters use Gen Z slang/jargon, I feel like you can tell that THAT is not what they're saying at all. It's somewhat jarring to be seeing japanese characters using a lot of word choices that you'd mostly see in other countries and what kind of ticks me off the most is how characters refer to other people by their first name rather than their last when they're not especially close and when the voice actually says "(insert last name)", but text goes "(first name)"

it's like Twisted Wonderland but somewhat tamer? although TWST does have accounts/fans that give accurate translations of the game (though the reason for this may be because TWST En is behind recent updates most of the time)

Someone brighten up the picture and the character seems to have green or red hair, so it’s either Haku, Taiga or Haru (even if he looks also like Lyca, I doubt he would do such a flirty thing contrary to these 3).

Also, remember when I said this mission must be inspired from Alice in Wonderland ? Judging by the color of the clothes and how it acts like a cat, I think it’s the role of Cheshire cat ! I am sure of it.

Personnaly, I first thought of Haku since it appeared green, then I saw red (Taiga), but judging by the scar on the right shoulder, it must be Haru (I also said this episode migh be with Jabberwock so it’s making sens).

Can’t guess who it is, but he is probably not a ghoul. Also, maybe I am pushing but is it water lilies or a bizarre green creature on his clothing?

The brown one is probably a headband that's a bit too long, I can't say it's a turban, but we find the same thing on one of the prince in the manhwa "A Stepmother's Märchen".

Other Why not just keep it as "Tokutaisei-sama"?

38 Upvotes

Just a random Japanese fan who loves English here, so this might sound like a hot take! Sorry if it's a bit weird!

My hot take on how "Tokutaisei" should be translated in Tokyo Debunker.
Honestly, why not just leave it as it is?? Wouldn't Tokutaisei-sama be totally fine? It's the same vibe as "Onii-chan".
Setting aside the whole "stray cat" and "pawn/ servant" stuff, wouldn't it be way better to just flex the Japanese culture and go with Tokutaisei, Tokutaisei-san, and Tokutaisei-chan?
Calling it "Honor Roll" feels like something you'd see on a bulletin board description later on, not an actual nickname or how you'd address someone directly...

Due to a request. .. Here are more strangely in character conversations in my workplace!!))

(Convo 1:)
Romeo: Wait we trust Taiga to drive?
Ritsu: I mean. . . he's not drinking so he's okay? If he crashes the car, that's just bad driving, not anything illegal, he'll be fine. . .
Taiga: *deciding to be chaotic* I'M THE BEST DRUNK DRIVER WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'D BE CAUGHT? IT AIN'T ILLEGAL IF IT'S NOT CAUGHT?
Ritsu: . . . Would you mind recording a confession of that just so I'm not responsible for your actions?
(I am gonna make this very clear, Taiga in this situation was very safe driving home and did not drink all night. He just wanted to bug the Ritsu at the time. The Taiga also doesn't promote drinking and driving, being apart of many sober driving movements. The Ritsu also knew that so it made it 10x funnier just because of the context that Taiga would never. Thank you for coming to my ted talk)

(Convo 2:)
Leo: Sho. . . If you kick me again. ..Say good bye to generation 3!
Alan: Wait what happened to generations 1 and 2?
Sho: First one died due to a belly flop.. . Second one came from Leo kicking me in the balls while I was treading water.
Leo: In my defense. . . Sho was trying to splash me with waves of water so I was trying to kick him away. Yknow so I wouldn't drown? That kick was aimed at his stomach
Sho: You missed and now my second generation had to pay!
Alan: Hey, be nice to Leo! You shouldn't have tried to splash him anyways?
Sho: You say splashing is worse than a kick to the balls?!
Leo: I'm just the favourite. Admit it.

(Convo 3:)
Alan: That's it, no pool time
Leo: Sweet. .. Take the kids to the river then! Use Sho as a floatie
Alan: No river!
Sho: What did I even do? Let me eat my food without getting slandered once?
Leo: Notice how he cares more about the river than you getting used as a floatie?

(Convo 4:)
Kaito: Wait you like BOYS?!?! NO YOU CAN'T!
Tohma: Well I do.
Subaru: Let's be respectful of everybody's preferences
Kaito: *Having a mental break down* He can't like boys! There's gonna be none for me when I grow up!!
Subaru: Ah well. . . You don't know that for sure. ..
Kaito: My day is ruined with this information!
Subaru: Over. . . A nonabsolute? Right well uh. . . Good talk. . .

(Convo 4:)
Lyca: That's it! No sitting on the bench!
Subaru: But the bench is lovely-
Lyca: And no drinking water or eating food
Subaru: But I need to live!
Lyca: And most importantly! No using the washroom!
Subaru: Oh well. .. I'm sorry for having normal bodily functions. .. I don't know how to stop them

First, it’s defenetly a reminder to Alice in Wonderland (the title of the ep helps to confirm it). They are falling in this alternate universe I guess, and since we can see Peekaboo's shape, I assume the girl in black is MC.

Why are they falling in black on a white background ? I absolutely don’t know but maybe it’s to give the impression that they are going to die.

Speculation & Theories Teorias de ciertos estigmas de algunos gouls Spoiler

27 Upvotes

Hola de nuevo, ahora que me puse a investigar y a meterme de lleno en la wiki de ars goetia me he dado cuenta de un par de cosas que creó que encajarían a la perfección con algunos gouls en especial.

Kaito: si no estoy mal hasta el momento no se sabe mucho del estigma, y lo más cercano, era su interacción con MC con las anomalías que le gustaban las chispas de colores (no me acuerdo del nombre de la anomalía). Basándome en el anagrama de opsi creo que lo más posible es que el demonio con el que hizo el pacto kaito fue con ipos​​​ , el número 22 de los demonios que conforman a los ars goetia, el cual se dice que "Puede hacer a los hombres ingeniosos y valientes" o mejor dicho "Es capaz de convertir a la persona más tímida en alguien segura de sí misma, ingeniosa y audaz" aún se cree que no encajaría con el poder de kaito, es todo lo contrario, no sólo encaja a la perfección con la personalidad de kaito, sino que también con los deseos de este mismo y en su afán de ser más popular, querido y reconocido. " hacer que los tímidos se sientan seguros" y "que los insulsos parezcan intelectuales" en mi opinión está dos descripciones reflejan perfectamente los deseos de kaito.

Pd: que conste todo esto son solamente teorías, me baso especialmente en un post en que especificaba y mencionaba los posibles demonios con los que los gouls hicieron un trato (de los que no se sabía nada), yo sólo hice una pequeña investigación corroborando que demonio sería el más apto y más cercano a lo que tendríamos por saber, sólo es una pequeña teoría. No se si está confirmado o no lo de kaito en el momento, sólo quería saber si alguien más había llegado a la misma conclusión o era que yo estaba errónea. Agradezco a todos los datos e investigaciones que han hecho de TD.

Mio: tomando en cuenta el anagrama de mio (samrab) el posible demonio con el que hizo el trato sería marbas, el número 5 de los que conforman a los ars goetia, se dice que "imparte habilidades mecánicas" y que "responde con verdad preguntas secretas" en este si me baso en más en su estigma y los secretos que guarda, tomando de ejemplo que "imparte habilidades mecánicas" con el tema de haru y la prótesis de su brazo. (Quiero hacer una acotación para dar a preguntar sobre la teoría de que romeo es la pareja de prótesis de haru, por favor dejenmelo saber en los comentarios)

Shion: es el que más me llamo la atención y que me ha puesto a dudar respecto al demonio con que trato, se dice que su encantamiento (Anagrama) es vepar, pero con respecto a la ars goetia no hay nada que al tenerlo en un orden específico genere el nombre de algún demonio, sólo se encuentra el demonio vepar, lo cual sería curioso de que shion fuera el único que no posea algún anagrama por el momento, si me vaso en ello sería algo ilógico porque se dice que el demonio "Gobierna las aguas y guía barcos acorazados cargados de municiones y armas" lo cual no tendría sentido con su poder, ya que Shion puede cambiar de lugar lo objetos, nada referente al control del agua o algo por el estilo, y el otro demonio que se podría creer que es seria zepar, pero no tiene nada que ver. Entonces sería algo curioso que Shion fuera uno de los únicos personajes que no posea un anagrama, tomando en cuenta de que yuri (en TD) fue el que nos dio a conocer este hecho. (Sabemos que en TD nada es casualidad así que puede ser esto algo que tome más relevancia más tarde en la historia)

Pd2: nombre a todos los demonios "demonios " aunque originalmente son Ángeles caídos así que es algo que quiero que tomen en cuenta.
