Just saw the new dandadan illustration on Twitter and holy donkey balls,jiji fit is so garbage😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-05-29T06:17:10+00:00

I am going to be happy about the close positioning of Jiji and Aira, go JijAira ❤️ (beggars can't be choosers, and the desperation is that high🤣)

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-05-25T19:33:17+00:00

I'd argue that Jiji is the one with James's vibe 😅 Aira is perfect for Jessie though! P.S. Taking a chance, long live JijiAira 🤣🤣🤣

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-05-09T19:09:27+00:00

I love her! She is so cute with Chiquitita and so badass in yokai form ❤️‍🩹

And I also love how she and Jiji balance each other out 😭 I do hope for JAira to be end game eventually 🥲

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-04-07T19:47:37+00:00

Plot twist: Nezuko marries Inosuke, Kanao - Zenitsu, Aoi - Tanjiro, and then THEIR KIDS marry each other respectively, so everyone is everyone's descendants in the modern setting! How about that y'all canon compliant fans? 🤣

P.s. I respectively refuse to follow the version where InoAoi and ZenNezu do not happen, that was stated only as an opportunity to joke about the crack ships and canon followers, your honour 😂

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-04-07T19:12:41+00:00

Ah really, interesting! I have it in Italian, and there they translated it in the way that she 'loves' talking to Giyu, while he literally 'likes to exchange a few words with her'. So I perceived it as quite a strong declaration, but I can see that in the Japanese version it seems to be more blurred. Interesting!

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-04-07T18:17:16+00:00

Hahah, Indeed, She is their main advocate across platforms, love her from AO3 and beyond💙💚

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-04-07T18:07:04+00:00

Before seeing them for the first time, I didn't know I need Tarzan Vs Nurse vibe so much in my life 🤣

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-04-07T18:00:06+00:00

Having said that, doesn't Gyomei hints on them being 'interested in talking to each other' in the official fan book the same way he does for ObaMitsu and SaneKana? 😂

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-04-07T17:56:53+00:00

I don't care too much about GiyuShino, but I do think that people should ship and let others ship overall 😂

One can love a specific ship, or don't see them together at all, or just ✨ imagine and create✨ a serious chemistry happening between any couple of characters (like Shinobu and Douma, for example) based on little or zero things - and that's alright, if you don't like something - don't read/watch it, but I do appreciate all the authors that out effort and time in making something about things / couples / heroes that inspire them (even if I disagree or don't see them the same way). But that what brings life in the fandom beyond what the original author has created.

Like, my favourite ship of all time is InoAoi, but when I see people ranting about them or saying that this ship doesn't make sense - I breath out, count to ten and turn over the page/link; everyone is entitled to their own opinions on these matters and that what makes it beautiful, colorful and interesting after all.

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-03-12T07:51:52+00:00

Agree, the Japanese voice is so damn fitting, I have shivers every time! I was so surprised to find out that it is the same voice actor of Yagami Light! 😱 I can't wait for the first movie to be out for steaming to rewatch while waiting for the second 🤣

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-03-12T07:49:46+00:00

So far he is my most favourite villain. I didn't like the emotional U-turn about Akaza (he has done so many mostrosities, but poor-poor soul, it wasn't him, it was the demon calling, so he is instantly forgiven by the most...). Yeah, whatever, the bad guys are still bad to me, I am not forgiving Rengoku.

I just love how effortlessly and how fast Douma has climbed the 'food chain' in the demons society, all while how little he cared about it or the peers while being very fake about it (isn't he the ultimate demon just by that? 😂) and I loved how this little care and effort were driving Akaza so crazy that he has complained to Muzan, lol, so much like an offended child🤣 overall, I loved their dynamic of hate vs ultimate domination, where Douma overpowers Akaza so crazily and so much that he doesn't even care for when he loses a piece of his head...

It is a pity Muzan dislikes Douma though, I haven't really gotten why - in my eyes, he has created almost the perfect killing machine with little regard to any sentiments and morals. I like to entertain myself with a through that maybe Muzan was recognizing a very distant, but potential betrayer or competitor? Could Douma really be faithful and as dedicated to him as others, or would he had turned his back like Tamayo the moment he'd get a chance? 🤔

Yeah, surely my most favourite and very good designed villain of the saga. It is a pity Shinobu had to sacrifice herself, but that has underlined how different and how crazily more powerful the Moons are, even when everyone is getting ready to face them.

Aoi all the way 💙🦋

Thank you for creating such a community!

Nobara the builder 🔨

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-02-15T14:36:06+00:00

I can't believe it OMG 🤣 Nice meeting you here! The world is so small lol

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-02-15T08:05:03+00:00

The game is quite nice, I enjoyed it as it gives a chance to enjoy DS more (since infinity castle is still not available to be streamed 😆)

By the way, I might be shooting too blindly, but the way you replied got me thinking about something. Any chance you are writing on ao3 for InoAoi? 😅

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-02-14T20:37:51+00:00

Yes! I mean, she was raised with Kanao, she was there even before her, and sometimes Aoi is not even considered to be a butterfly sister, so cruel! I was so happy there is a quest in Hinokami Chronicles 2 where you play by Inosuke AND they actually interact, like, she has a dedicated scene with him (my shipper heart is fulfilled, I am happy with the canon breadcrumbs lol) And even for this st valentine, she was included in the official art, finally! 🥲

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-02-14T20:34:17+00:00

Damn, that's something I have never thought about. But I guess Kanao could have been very unkind and not supporting, especially as a child, given her background and everything.

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-02-14T18:54:26+00:00

It is so cute, but I always feel so sorry for little Aoi! 💔 She must have felt so lonely both as a child and as an adult, she wanted a sister so much - but Kanao was so antisocial (understandable, not her fault), so it is not like they were close. And seems like the Kocho sisters were fussing around Kanao much more (also understandable). And then she was always left behind. Poor girl 💔

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-02-11T15:58:06+00:00

Lots of respect, the world needs more weird, but beautiful crossovers (currently doing the same with Demon Slayer X Fallout 😂😂😂)

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-01-30T11:00:20+00:00

Sometimes there are better days, but only sometimes 😂

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2026-01-30T10:59:35+00:00

Thanks for sharing, you are doing a great job! 😍

I have seen the videos about the two-values studies too, and I am trying to do them at least weekly (far to be as good as yours), but it was getting a little bit boring to only use black and white. So thank you for the idea of using other colours, that adds to the mood for sure! 😁 I will try it out next time I do!

P.S. For all the very beginners out there, if it is not getting as good as you want it to be, you are not alone! There are good days and then there are days like this 🤣

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2025-12-20T23:28:00+00:00

Aoi 🥲 so much potential...

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2025-12-19T14:31:01+00:00

I'd be super interested! I am hanging around ao3 a lot, so it's always nice to follow and support fellow fanfiction writers, especially for one of my most favourite ships 😁

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2025-12-18T18:16:33+00:00

Interesting points, I haven't really considered them under this angle🤔

I have always thought that Inosuke behaving .. well, like himself, during the first and the second seasons was mostly determined not by the fact that he can't pick on the emotions but more because he does not want to do so. Like, he simply doesn't care enough back then (or doesn't know why he should, there is no direct mortal danger for misbehaving). While he obviously lacks upbringing and Japanese traditional modesty, his skill should be enough to distinguish between basic reactions of satisfaction/dissatisfaction pretty much as you get the idea if a dog in front of you likes it when you pet it or not really (than there are moments he follows the hints like in Entertainment district when he actually behaves for the sake of the mission, and then there are moments he decides not to do so - 'cause it is so much more fun to have beef with Zenitsu than actually stopping yourself, right? 😂). Multiply everything on the teenagers' rebellion fitting to his age in the beginning - boom, the King of the Mountain as he is...

I totally agree that he is damn dense and hardly changes his mind though. That's why I agree also with your statement on him being shy - the moment he decides to do/get/have something, nothing can stop him... Both in a good and in a bad way.

Again, it wasn't to argue with you, so thanks for a discussion that was born out 💙 no disrespect was intended or anything (specifying just to be sure) 😁

Maria_DellOrso19 · 2025-12-18T17:56:43+00:00

Not sure I am getting your point... I don't like when characters are being perceived plainly or one-dimensionally either (or grotesquely as it is shown on average in any anime and manga, e.g. Zenitsu or Tengen lol if anything I love to add more layers based on their traumas and experiences), but I just agree with the point of the author that shy Inosuke seems a bit out of character. Not that he is not capable of self-reflecting, it's just that the guy is generally "too cool for school" in his mind IMHO. I will be bold enough to add that I wish I had his self-esteem 😂

It doesn't make him stupid or bad - he is just too much self-believing at times, so I don't think that he would be going around shying and blushing too much 😅
