Re: killer scholarship continued <3

😚💖 once again thank u for ur excellent contributions to the field of killerism!!! sdkjfgdskfsdfj my friend asked if mamoru miyano had voiced other killers so i was going thru his filmography and i was like WAIT A SEC..... /THE/ KIRA HIMSELF? icb we forgot but we really were focusing so much on jaemin as the epicentre of killerism lmao

omg i do remember u brought up dazai when we were discussing killerism on twitter Added to list - The Killer 💫 he is ALSO mamoru miyano voiced right? i love a killer with a good respectable citizen cosplay

YES i was thinking about finnick too but i wasnt sure where to place him but i agree he really is impostor/killer hybrid bc he doesnt enjoy violence like d1/d2 careers its only part of his survival mechanism... johanna is even harder for me to place bc her persona in the games and as a victor were both created to be as offputting/abrasive as possible rather than charming...... slaughterer w/o the bloodlust? hunter w/o the pride/discipline? omg i just realised d1 would probably have a fair few honeytraps too...

my friend who coined the hunter term asked if akai was a hunter (since i am guy who has been talking incessantly about conan to my non conan friends too 😭) and i was like !?! so true. he really is!! not that jodie and akai would have lasted very long organically anyway in my opinion but yeah rip... also akashin twin flameism extending to killer designation so true (maybe vigilanteism is really just a subtype of hunterism...) But dark shinichi would actually be a vigilante fr like doing exactly what he already does just on the other side of the law. it is kind of freaking me out imagining what it would take for him to turn away from the principles that are so central to his way of life Like how many of his loved ones would have to die to get him to that point of extreme disillusionment 😟

kjfdskdjsd i was gonna say more in the honeytrap section and then i was like well what else needs to be said. They are literally just killers who are bottoms. i fully believe amuro is a honeytrap 😆 ID LIKE TO SEE ITT. i think some of the problem with this category is that killers are like Guys With The Upper Hand in a controlled way which is a little bit antithetical to being a bottom... slaughterers can easily be bottoms tho hmmm i will also keep trying to think about it

ooh im not familiar with messiah/machiavel but that is actually..... exactly exactly the energy i was going for with child of god!!! "so narratively inhuman that they cannot have normal relationships with people / their interpersonal relationships are probably really fucked up to a degree, and yet on the realest level they are still human so there are all the flaws that come with that" absolutely spot on this is what i meant!! yukimura is like a cult leader because his team is SO totally devoted to him(/the idea of him) theyre all sustaining extreme psychological damage adopting his victory at all costs philosophy even if its totally opposite to their actual moral codes... but at the same time yukimura is very much a fallible human boy, he spends like 90% of the original series on his literal deathbed with terminal illness before making his debut as final boss villain and ofc has to lose... it really is the messy intersection of love and ideals >__< the persona fuckery arising not from careful cultivation like a killer but from the pedestal / deification... i cant weigh in on gojo but i always believe and trust ur judgement hehe im sure there are other children of god Yuki is just my favourite boy

impostors are literally so good... free association with impostor syndrome too >:) We Are All like things we already like i also love guys who are jaemin <3
