(sord) god randomly thinking about mutsu and i love him so much. not just b/c he's like a dog in swordhuman form and his incredibly genuine ideals, but also the fact that he's literally just this meme at the same time
something something etc his kiwame form in the game his dialogue says that he realizes/knows it sometimes can be a case by case basis ie guns/modernization replacing tradition, but i still have feelingss
he's like that class clown you had in school... he's funny and a good dude and man, he makes you think he doesn't have a single brain cell sometimes, but then you find out he's like... all As.
i mean i do make the arguement also in serious that cain is also very good at what he does for his job and the dichotomy of that and him also being a fucking idiot is my favorite himbo aspect
also he loves modern things and he's all about the future but he's still very proud of his traditions and the old way of things... like he's so nostalgic for the old stories of tosa, the music, the dance, the festivals...
i still remember in early fandom days, everyone called him a doggo (and they still do) but there was a museum exhibit and the artists were invited to talk about their designs and stuff
and yeah i havent seen all of the stuff he's in mistly just this game but his kiwame letters back to you hit hard even if its like not as 'depressing' as the others
(tho the part in his kiwame letter tho about 'and that night ryouma would die because the gun he had failed to work' makes me angsty even if its like. an ackownledgement of mutsus own bridge between past and future
tho i would love to like rp off of a ryouma one time with mutsu being able to tell him who he is, tho that would require me making an account for the doggo dragon
it was donated to them years ago by a sakamoto family member who said it ws ryouma's sword but they'd forgotten about it and it was burned beyond recognition in a fire
the fun fact it's a traditional folk song from tosa. the clappers he has are traditoinal performance pieces from tosa. the dance he leads them in is also inspired by the dances from tosa.
hizen went on all the tours last year so he was the one who led the yosakoi part instead.... with help bc IC but yosakoibushi is basically the tosa sword boy song u_u
if you ask hizen to do it, he'll most certainly do it
mutsu: so you're saying you wont do it?
hizen: no i willl, but i wont enjoy it
