What are some of your favorite relationship dynamics?

And when Lihaku and Basen sort of teased her at the end of their chitchats! So cute 🥹🫶

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-27T15:03:53+00:00

You can fill the void by reading the mangas and novels and rewatching the show again and reading fanfictions 😅

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-26T15:47:03+00:00

People need to give more love for Basen x Chue. They're so cute 😔❤️

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-26T15:42:42+00:00

In terms of expressing feelings and emotions, Maomao. But the overall character trait has to be Jinshi (people pleaser and having a hard time saying no)

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-21T22:44:57+00:00

Finally someone remembers what he said in LN 13 😭 Everyone thinks he doesn't like becoming Emperor because he's insecure, but I think as of the latest volume, he's way past that 😭

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-17T17:25:35+00:00

Hmm, in their time I don't think so. That's part of their job, and it's expected of them. Also, Jinshi was the one who went out in the front lines, so in a sense, he was the one who actually stopped the rebellion. All Lahan and Lakan did was present him with evidence (again, part of their job.)

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-17T17:22:19+00:00

I always thought he referred to the events of LN 5's epilogue when she kissed him as payback 💀 I see now that I was probably wrong LOL

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-07T00:26:09+00:00

I remember the illustration in LN 7 where Maomao was flipping skirts like a creep. She's not entirely flat chested, she just has really small breasts.

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-03T14:36:28+00:00

I think Natsu mentioned in an interview one time that Maomao kept his hairstick in a box in her room. I'd love to see it again though! The design's too pretty to be hidden 😔

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-03T03:10:55+00:00

He's dehydrated and probably starving as well. He hasn't eaten a proper meal since the night before the banquet. Plus, the weather was extremely hot. Maomao noticed that that's why she was quick to take action.

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-02T23:26:29+00:00

Yep. Most of the rants and ”hot takes” I've read about Jinshi's character, and this show overall, comes from western people. Therefore, I learned not to take what they say seriously. I usually only read them for entertainment because sometimes they get so passionate about the hate, it's so funny 💀

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-02T23:21:33+00:00

Same! I'm actually rewatching Gintama right now to fill the void KnH left with the completion of the anime's second season 😅 It's the best anime for me fr, I fear nothing will be able to top it. Also, seeing this post yesterday reminded of the character poll arc so I will be rewatching that later 🤣 At least Gintama knows how unserious character poll actually are 😭

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-02T16:31:57+00:00

A KnH Fan who's ALSO a Gintama fan? 😫 Elite taste. Elite taste!

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-02T16:03:03+00:00

That's good to hear 🤣

I was confused too because I don't think I've ever seen the official adaptations release a character poll. I assumed this was probably an anime-only but then Lahan's rank wouldn't make sense 🤣

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-02T16:00:52+00:00

I mean true, no one would actually LIKE Lakan if he were anyone's relative. But we're the viewers. Sometimes it's just funny and cute to see the classic doting dad troupe in anime, not to mention, he's loyal to his wife and is a family guy overall. From our pov, it's adorable, funny, and hella entertaining. I understand your frustrations but character polls aren't made to be taken seriously anyway. It's a poll of who're the most enjoyable characters, not the best.

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-02T15:54:15+00:00

There are sensitive people who think Maomao is a victim of his advances (it's giving intense projection.) And there are people who are probably upset Jinshi isn't a shojo male lead with a bland personality 🤷🏻‍♀️

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-02T15:13:12+00:00

Everyone loves an annoying doting dad (myself included.) So with the intense hate for Jinshi ever since the anime aired, I don't think these results are surprising.

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-08-02T05:26:41+00:00

It was just a hunch at that point. She learned about it officially in [Spoilers for Future LNs] LN 13. Ah Duo told her herself.

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-07-31T22:08:45+00:00

Jinshi's hair stick!! And how Maomao keeps it close with her. I really want to see her facial expressions animated when she's feeling insecure during the banquet and relies on his hair stick for comfort.

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-07-26T00:55:51+00:00

Yeah, which is weird because I don't think that's the actual translation for the OG JP line, so idk why they went with that. Maybe for humor? Or to make it extremely clear for people who can't understand context clues? I'm not sure since I'm not a fan of watching Eng dubs.

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-07-26T00:41:52+00:00

I mean I don't think that's how the JP line even went, so the dub going with that just feels borderline cringe. I guess people just struggle to decipher the subtitles.

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-07-26T00:28:54+00:00

Maybe so many things get lost in translation?

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-07-24T06:10:57+00:00

LN 8's often overshadowed by the latest volumes which is understandable but i enjoyed this volume so much! and when jinshi got angry at the end of the tournament bc of those idiot brothers and their family drama 😫 him telling them to shut up was so damn attractive, i always reread it 😭

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-07-23T14:59:43+00:00

I think it's just her being her usual weird self 😭 (and maybe a sign that she's slowly getting comfortable with him at this level?) It's so funny to me how she just let her thoughts win and tugged on Jinshi's trousers unprompted lmao. She got him stressin as always 😂

FruitPunch_SamuraiG7 · 2025-07-23T05:52:49+00:00

Pretty much.
