i love how in every adaptation they start trying to be really in-model with the original style and a few episodes later they literally go “?????chubby”
Here’s a comic about Ichimatsu’s belly that I found on pixiv and translated! Translation, editing, typesetting etc. all done by me for fun. The original artist’s work can be found here! Please enjoy!
*T/N: The box that Ichimatsu is holding says “sweets” or “snacks”, and Jyushimatsu’s hat says “Matsu”.
also since I never know what I think about myself and practically have an identity crisis twice a day it would always be some ungodly distance away unless it wanted to smack me upside the head which I guess is pretty often
So jiishiki [自意識] was translated as “self-awareness” though other translations give “self-consciousness.” It’s hard to explain, but it’s like.. how you view yourself? You can have a lot of self-consciousness about how you act or very little. Osomatsu and Todomatsu call Choromatsu’s case “jiishiki rising” because in Japanese, people say “自意識が高い” or “your self-awareness is high.” In this case, it means that you are reaching egoistic levels. Choromatsu’s jiishiki rose to great heights because he kept saying he was going to do all of these things. Lowkey boasting, you know? A “humble brag” if you will www
Jiishiki isn’t always negative, if you say someone has jiishiki, usually you mean they’re confident in themselves. Too much of it isn’t good though!
great-blaster has their own take on the meaning of jiishiki and how it correlates to each Matsuno’s jiishiki appearance that I agree with!
It would definitely be orange, and it would be big because I care very very much about my appearance www it’s soft and plushie like a pillow since I’m a huge pushover too. What a perfect pillow! The two sides of the orb are different hues of orange yey~
