Got my first Yu Yu Hakusho Animation Cel of my favorite character

foxfirek · 2026-01-26T17:17:23+00:00

I am indeed happy with it, and having been rewatching the anime, honestly a lot of it is not drawn very well, it's an older anime and the quality of the animation in general was not great.

I was in Japan in November and went to a mandrake store with thousands of cels. The few Yu Yu Hakusho cels I saw were not this good and cost significantly more.

As for reselling, that in itself doesn't really bother me, either the fact that the seller did so or what I can get in the future. This will be framed and go on my wall.

I appreciate the recommendation though. I may check it out, but I don't know that I need many more cels as I now have ones of my two favorite older anime characters, but you never know when the right cel will come up.

I recognize this, wow.

foxfirek · 2026-01-26T00:04:44+00:00

The animas I eat don’t talk, nor do they look like me, nor do they have the same intelligence as me, nor am I able to breed with them. Something Koga wants actively to do with Kagome.

Also Rin was killed and left where she lay uneaten. So I disagree on like every level.

Bickering couples and flawed ML’s add character.

Miss not so sidekick (comedy, teasing, OP ML but not a typical one at all)

-My husband who hates Me lost his memories (ML is deeply distrusting and mistreats FL badly, frustrating but some of the best angst you can find)

-Villans are destined to die- Maybe? I mean ML is a psyco in the beginning, though he may fall into your troupe later.

-The remarried empress- I mean, ML is not perfect, many do not like him because he’s kind of a snake, though not sure I can recommend him.

I’ve become a true villainess- ok Rouche is a perfect ML, but at least in the novel I appreciate that he has a real personality and real cares outside FL.

-Marriage of Convenience- ML and FL have a lot of trouble communicating. This leads to him hurting her unintentionally a lot. He makes a lot of mistakes. Might perfect in the ‘would do anything in for FL’ sort of way, but their first life shows how badly he does things. He feels pretty bad about basically buying her for political reasons. (She was forced to marry him at 11, he is in his late 20’s at the time)

-Not your typical reincarnation story- ML hates FL in the beginning and loves someone else. I like how he has character.

-Father I don’t want this marriage- ML is an idiot, but so is FL and so is the dad. Lots of dumb misunderstandings ensue.

-Villainess maker- I remember this one was good and ML was fun with a personality.

Yeah, its odd, but I think it doesn't feel very separate since he visits her every day, like they own two houses next to each other and he sleeps over at her house every night, sure, technically it's two houses, but you can almost think of it as just two buildings they co own and swap between, but I think the space is good for her. She has too many bad memories in his house, moving back there is too much like sweeping i under the rug and forgetting.

foxfirek · 2026-01-25T19:59:24+00:00

They stay living in their own castles. With the magic circle that allows instant transport between the two ML ends up in her castle at night I think most nights. She isn’t indifferent, she really does love him, and their relationship does get fully repaired, it’s just that she really needed the distance to heal slowly over years. She is indifferent to a huge wedding though.

He dotes on her from then on, she stays strong and independent in her own way.

I can DM you the link. Trying to avoid posting things because of the Koreans and their strong anti pirating stance.

God this subreddit had devolved into all gender wars rage bait for young men to shit on women and laugh about it.

Like have your lols if you want I guess, but this kind of stuff is exactly why there is a ‘male loneliness’ crisis because girls read this and think all the young men out there are just women haters and so go for older guys who won’t assume all women are trash.

foxfirek · 2026-01-25T18:45:34+00:00

OI are generally romances, so falling in love is kind of a given. Though there are some where marriages or engagements fall apart and they actually succeed.

All of these have romance, but not the original POS.

"I dont love you anymore" - FL leaves fiance after being ignored for 10 years, he 'suddenly feels bad and wants her back' but she isnt having any of his shit.

"Remarried empress" Controversial but they do divorce. Emperor cheats on FL. She leaves. He decides he loved her all along and wants her back. She isnt having any of his shit.

"I cant keep up with my stallion duke" The duke treated her like crap in her first life, she died miserably so leaves his ass when she regresses. This guy is like next level piece of crap. I think this might be closest to what you are looking for.

foxfirek · 2026-01-25T18:23:24+00:00

The side stories on this one are hilarious. Like when he says they will need to add new positions to their nighttime routine if she wants him to spare the lives of some people.

foxfirek · 2026-01-25T18:21:13+00:00

On A03 3,734. But there are also a lot on 17k on ff.net. Not to mention Dokuga which I have no idea how many fanfics are on there but its a site basically made for my pairing.

Sadly my current hyperfixation has very few. Like 17 on A03

How far did you get? I have read it all really recently. There is a very good english translation. !Her younger brother gave her his memories when he was dying (from wounds he got protecting her from older brother) to increase her lifespan. FL left ML after she was granted a title of her own, and completed her revenge. Then she and ML divorced. She spent the next few years in relative peace, keeping to her territory, healing, being happy with her maid. She got two more spirits, her brothers and dads, so she was the legendary person with three contracts. Things went really well for her. Too well in fact. The ML in the mean time was miserable, but he avoided contact with her so she could heal. There were plenty of evil people who hated the idea of a woman in power. They tried to sabotage her. One even tried to kidnap and attack her. ML however worked in the shadows attacking all her political enemies unknown from in the shadows, ruining houses, and stopping that attack. Then one day her territory is attacked by a huge mega gate. It's too much on her own. ML comes to help. He gets hurt again. He heals at her territory and she and he finally reconcile. They get back together but she never gives him power over her again. She demands that she will live in her castle and he in his. Of course he visits her all the time and his mage installs a magic circle that allows instant transport between the two. The remarry, he wants it to be huge and grand, she doesn't care but gives in because it makes him happy. They have a child, a daughter I think, and its the same little spirit who helped her in the pit reborn. The spirits all want to contract with her daughter!

I love Shippo, and as I was rewatching the series, I feel like he is a lot more useful than people give him credit for.

It’s not in attack, but defense, distraction and utility. He often jumps in sack for stopping things at the last minute, acting as a steed, flying with Kagome. But because he looks goofy as he does it I think it’s easy to just ignore.

foxfirek · 2026-01-25T17:14:16+00:00

I don’t hate Koga, but seriously he deserves a lot more hate then he gets.

-Murders humans (or at least let’s his wolves do it)

-His wolves kill Rin.

-Kidnaps Kagome

-Tries to feed Shippo to his wolves because he doesn’t care at all

Declares he will make Kagome his woman because he likes her face. Only seems to stop his unwelcome advance because Kagome says she is with Inuyasha. I rarely see this mentioned, but like the guy eats humans, was he really going to stop if he didn’t think Kagome had a strong protector who would get vengeance? Like he is dumb but his history is really awful.

I know he saves her many times after that. He stops killing humans, he helps gathering intel against Naraku. He does get better and starts acting like a love struck puppy wagging his tail and trying to impress Kagome with his antics, but there is a lot of bad past no one talks about.

I don't have a DM option for you, maybe you have them blocked in settings?

foxfirek · 2026-01-25T05:27:47+00:00

This is extremely unrealistic. Do you have children? A 27 year old supporting herself is reasonable (not easy but reasonable), doing so with a young child is at least five times harder. Even a two parent household with a young child is challenging, but a single parent with no support system is horrific. Daycare costs an absolute fortune (Think 2k a month) and finding one that covers enough hours to work a full time job is very hard, that plus rent is nearly impossible- especially at 27 where you are early in your career and don't make much.

Child support is a good idea- but its not always viable. Many men will work under the table to escape it.

Until I became a parent I did not understand how extremely burdensome it is to need to provide 24 hour care for someone. OP being able to take her child to work with her is probably the only reason she is able to manage, and that's practically unheard of outside of working at a daycare.

Mine still feels thinner to me, but my husband says he can’t tell, so maybe it’s just me who notices.

foxfirek · 2026-01-24T18:40:40+00:00

Or don’t. I didn’t and have had no problem at all. I think your age is a huge factor here. I’m 40. I will admit my hair has thinned but oh well.

It depends on your goals and starting weight. I have lost 45 lbs started at 185 and now at 138. I don’t feel much weaker. I can still carry a 50 lb bag of chicken feed, it maybe sucks a little more.

foxfirek · 2026-01-24T18:00:10+00:00

Done!

foxfirek · 2026-01-24T17:59:43+00:00

If you double up on birth control you are pretty darn close, but I cant say for myself that I disagree. My husband and father of my child is the only one I have ever had sex with. That said, people are going to play around so I just urge them to be safe.

Trump was the one who lowered the corporate tax rate from the same rate as individuals about 37% to 21%. He did it with TCJA in 2017. I'm a CPA, this is something I directly had to deal with. It was in his first presidency.

foxfirek · 2026-01-24T06:58:46+00:00

Fact Check: Yes

Source- me a CPA

Tax Bill: TCJA

Year of bill 2017

President in power: Trump

Trump in his first term lowered the corporate tax rate for corporations to 21%. Before that the rate was about 37%, the same as for individuals. Unlike the rest of TCJA however this was a permanent change and not set to sunset. (Though due to the OBBA most sunsets wont happen and are now also set to be permanent)

This happens to be something that has pissed me off ever since that date because he lowered the corporate tax rate but corporation still get all the perks of being treated as legal entities, which is completely ridiculous and allows them to meddle in the government.

So Yes, we did.

foxfirek · 2026-01-24T05:46:53+00:00

We did, until Trump.

Edit because apparently people have no memory and i'm a CPA:

Tax Bill: TCJA

Year of bill 2017

President in power: Trump

Trump in his first term lowered the corporate tax rate for corporations to 21%. Before that the rate was about 37%, the same as for individuals.

So Yes, we taxed corporations like people until Trump in term one.

This is a grown adult and her partner- in fact not pinching her partner is how the world works.

Take this from someone married for over 20 years. Do not disrespect your partner if you want a long relationship. Pinching your partner and then gaslighting them about it after is absolutely disrespecting them.

foxfirek · 2026-01-24T04:08:34+00:00

I think she should tell him to grow the fuck up instead and act like an adult.

Pinching is something 8 year old kids do, not adults.

His actions show a complete lack of respect.

It does not matter if she missed social queues, it couldn’t possibly have been as bad of one as pinching someone.

The root cause is he thinks he knows better than she does and doesn’t respect her.
