SPOILERS FOR YTTD 3-1B
I was on the part when Keiji show up. I started yelling and all and then Midori said rule violation. I thought why tho? and Midori said Keiji use Mishima’s collar. I was thinking of why not Shin collar... I mean he unlock his own collar. Keiji can just pick it up... and yeah I thought Keiji had both of Shin and Mishima’s collar when Midori said “you use it.”
Ah I finish the kanna / alice rote now.
my reaction : p a i n
QTAROOOOOOOO why ;-;
you’ll be miss BBQtaro
i watched a video essay baout midori today, saw the artstyle of the work its based on (shoujo tsubaki) and was reminded of fanart i saw a while back for lychee light club. i read the whole thing just now and theres a special thanks to suehiro maruo, the artist of shoujo tsubaki at the end. ive had the most fulfilling experience seeing these works of amazing art come full circle.
also, i really loved lychee light club. bit weird that theyre so young and the amounts of explicit content and gore, but the manga was a banger. artstyle, story, everything worked fantastically.
ah. oh dear. who did that (bonus under readmore)
pt.2 ✨✨
'That's sad' said Midori.
'What aboust you?' asked Shichi. Midori took a deep breth before opening her mouth.
'Not a long time ago my mother died of illness, so i joind the cirus. I was introdused by meny wird people a muumy man, a sanke woman, a boy girl and meny more. They were all assholes. One day a dwarf joind the circus, and i guess i fell in love. I and the dwarf ran away together but he left me.''
'Do you have eneywhere to go?' Shichi asked. 'Not eyeymore' replayd Midori her eyes wondering around the bar.
'Well you can stay with me if you promise to help me find my brother'. 'Deal' said Midori turning her attention to the girl next to her.
With that deal made they walked out of the bar and the two girls now found them selfs at a small house.
'This is whre we will be staying' said Shici grabing Midori's hand and leading her in the house.
Walking thru the house the floor sligthly creeckd sending shivers down Midori's spine.
'It's nigth we better g to sleep said Shici whale taking out a spare blanket she had lying around.
'Well goodnigth' said Midori, turning out the ligth.
The next morning Midori was waken up by Shici. 'You over sleepd, Midori. Hurry up and get out of bed. With saying that she left clean cloths at her bed.
When Midori was out of bed se and Shici left thru the door and Shici lead Midori to where her brother was known to last work at.
As they got closer to the era witch was a shollow cicrus tent Midori sudely frose but her legs were still walking tourds it. The two girls enterd the tent and sat in beetwen the croud. Soon the show started.....

She was sitting on the side of the road crying her eyes out. After Midori left the circus with the dwarf, he left.

With out thinking Midori sat on the bench looking up into the sky half asleep. Midori then felt a gentle tap on her sholder. Midori's eyes meet the stranger. 'Hello there, are you from around here?' said the gentle voice.
Midori's sleeping eyes lookd the stranger up and down and then begain to focus her attention on the mysirios strangers face. 'I was' replayd Midori. 'Woud you like to spend the nigth with me' the stranger ciriosly asked.

What Space Patrol Luluco meant to me, as an aeromantic middle schooler
H hhiii everybody, this is an essay I wanted to write. I know this is an art account, but the last time I wrote a half assed paper about Osomatsu’s 24th season two episode you guys like it? So maybe, just maybe, you guys would be ok with reading another, this time something more personal, about what I beleive is a completely underrated show and how it changed my life! :D
WARNING!! THERE ARE HEAVY SPOILERS IN THIS ARTICLE FOR SPACE PATROL LULUCO
Space Patrol Luluco is a 13 episode shit post about a 13 year old girl name Luluco (fuckadoodle doo) who take her father’s place in the Okikubo division of the Space Patrol after he’s turned into a frozen brain splinter by her Space Pirate Mother. (more on that later)
What the series is most known for is being one huge fucking inside joke for fans of Studio Trigger. The 13 episodes are divided into 5 mini seasons, each ending on the third episode so that that there’s never a fourth episode, since Trigger is known for their infamously bad fourth episodes. The show even confirms that all Trigger properties belong in the same universe just on different planets, Luluco even meets some notable characters from other shows. It’s a really neat show for fans of the studio.
But for me, I’ve always seen the show as something much more personal than that, especially as an aeromantic middle schooler.
The show throughout seasons 1-3 carries this subplot of Luluco’s crush on this apathetic good looking boy name Nova; and to be honest when I was first watching it I found this subplot cringey and unappealing.
As a bit of a disclaimer, my aeromanticism was a coping mechanism due to some bad experiences involving being stalked and manipulated by a boy I knew for seven years. (i’m not joking, fourth grade to tenth grade) For most people aeromanticism isn’t a phase, and I’m not trying to imply in anyway that that’s what it is, but for me, it was a phase. Romance made me incredibly uncomfortable, because I was convinced that all love is shallow especially premature teen age love. I believed the standard of love we had created for ourselves was impossible to actually achieve. Especially impossible, and pointless, for middle school love.
And that’s how I felt about Luluco’s crush for Nova. It wasn’t special, it wasn’t deep, it wasn’t love. But it all changed in the series's climax, because my outlook on Luluco’s crush was the exact intention of the writer’s. The audience was meant to view her love as insignificant, because that was the exact view of the series's main antagonist too.
Another thing I’ve always loved about all of Trigger’s properties are their insane plot twists. (or at least the ones I've seen have plot twists) In episode one of season four of Space Patrol Luluco it’s revealed that the commanding chief of the entire space patrol force is a Blackholien, an alien species that only finds joy from stealing everything the universe has to offer; but because he’s so bored of stealing things of value, he sets about trying to steal the most worthless object in the entire universe- a middle school crush. Nova, the boy Luluco loves, is revealed to be a Nothingling, a being incapable of having a personality or feelings. The Blackholien humiliates Luluco by showing everyone that she only loves Nova for his looks, because that’s all he is. Then, Nova steals Luluco’s love from her body and the shock of this kills her.
Now, watching this for the first time, this really got my attention. In the next fucking episode, Luluco isn’t even in the opening anymore, because she’s dead. She spends the whole episode in hell, until she realizes something. It doesn’t matter to her that her love seems immature and shallow, because to her, it’s real.
Pulling back from the show for a moment, I’d like to say that we live in a society where we hate little girls. We do. If something is fucking stupid but is geared toward boys we withstand it. But if something is fucking stupid and geared toward little girls we hate on it, relentlessly. I felt that pressure alot as a child. Until I reached high school I was a tomboy, because I didn’t want to be seen as feminine. Subconsciously, I saw it as weak and something to outgrow. But it wasn’t until freshmen year that I realized that I’m ok with being girly. I can be feminine and powerful at the same time.
I got a little off topic there but what I’m trying to say is that these themes are very present all through out the show Space Patrol Luluco, except it focuses less on gender expression and more on age but still it’s kind of the same. There are arc words within the series, such as how instead of stealing people only use the term “shoplift.” And how the Blackholien at every chance he gets calls Luluco a worthless middleschooler, belittling her for her age and her optimism.
I rewatched the series recently, and seeing it from a different perspective, with a romantic partner in my life, I’ve really come to understand Nova and Luluco’s relationship. Back in season one, after spending sometime with Nova Luluco experiences this big bang, and it’s meant to be this metaphor for the emotions blooming within her. Later, after Luluco comes back to life and confesses her feelings to Nova he experiences a big bang too, and for the first time ever he can feel emotions, and he falls in love with Luluco, and to me, that is the most romantic beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
As someone who has personally experienced what it’s like to feel incapable of love to finding my soulmate, it’s incredibly empowering. And that’s the real purpose of Space Patrol Luluco. Good art shows people different perspectives of the world, and years ago that’s exactly what it did for me. And I don’t care if love is stupid anymore I just know what it is I feel, and that’s what Luluco is for. To teach little girls like me that it’s ok to have dumb middle school crushes.
Midori and Sumire!! Quick redraw of this official artwork, I love how Midori’s face is just :o
