HOWEVER

High-key agree that people come by to whoop Kaiman's ass for the shit Kai pulled (Understandable tbh)

Crosseyes headcanons (with special guests)

Kaiman

- Finds out that Dr. Kasukabe is working with the Crosseyes and just kinda screams for awhile

- There was a serious debate on if Kaiman counted as a Crosseye. Kai was (Kai was officially demoted for killing comrades without good reason and also cannibalizing a comrade without consent) and Kaiman is kinda Kai, But Kaiman’s also kinda Aikawa who definately was not a Crosseye even if he was partners with Risu. Also debates as to if Hole-kun was their real boss and Kai/Kaiman/Aikawa was just his ride?

- Kaiman personally does not identify as a Crosseye. That does not stop him from somehow getting dragged into Crosseye bullshit.

- Gets roped into a weeks worth of knife fights b/c the Crosseyes wanted revenge for the bullshit Kai did to them/put them through. (a lot of people get in on this action, not just Crosseyes. Tetsujo invites Fujita who does stab the shit out of Kaiman for his late homie Matsumura. Tanba and Kirion tag team and WWE Kaiman’s ass.) It’s not a good time but also not a bad time, people are working out their issues.

I love how, despite being the more sweet and moral of the bunch, Seras is still driven by a deep well of rage and pain inside her and that's why Alucard let her live and made her a vampire. She beat the shit out of all the other kids in her orphanage for talking smack. She became a vampire because she was too angry to let this world be the death of her. That shit is so fucking cool I love you Seras Victoria

Crosseyes headcanons (with special guests)

Nikaido

- Is declared an honorary Crosseye as the ex-boss’s partner and for being nice to Natsuki, Risu, Dokuga, Tetsujo, and Kaiman

- “Train us Nikaido-senpai!” Natsuki decides that the gang should learn some fighting skills form Nikaido b/c Nikaido is very very good at fighting.

- There is an unspoken understanding that in the Crosseye hierarchy that Nikaido ranks higher than Dokuga and Tetsujo. Not only did she beat them in a fight they also work at her restaurant.

- Nikaido is a-ok with taking drug money as payment and gifts

- Sometimes the Crosseyes rotate young adults by the Hungry Bug like, “X needs a job, they work cheap and they won’t rob you.”

- Nikaido disagrees with the Crosseyes on economics. She’s a capitalist and they’re out and out communists.

Crosseyes (who matter) headcanons

Natsuki

- Lost one parent to the whole death mushroom incident and the other parent to the average bullshittery of life as a weak mage. Orphaned completely at age 11.

- Living in Mastema means you don’t have to pay rent

- If she’d been given time to practice her magic she would have been able to learn how to cover others with it as well

- The armor she wears under her big ass hoodie is weighted.

- Would love the chance to try devil training (would fail for not having a proper devil attitude)

- Gets crushes easily but they’re never serious

- She and Ton have mid to long range weapon user solidarity

- Could have easily survived the rain apocalypse with her defense magic

- Isn’t fully aware of it but as far as the elites are concerned she’s one of them in all but title. (She needed to hone her skills a bit more and have gone on more missions with them before they made it official)

- By sorcerer standards the elites quite literally adopted Natsuki as a little sister

- Becomes Partners with Ton because they gel very well. A good big brother/little sister team.

- Wants to be strong. Doesn’t slack on physical training even after her magic awakens. Makes it a goal to be strong enough able to bench press every one of the elites one day. Asks Nikaido to train her.

-Her eyes are darker than the void, all pupil all the way down. Likely needs glasses but doesn’t know it since she can see pretty ok. (She’d see even BETTER with glasses)

I have said it before and I will say it again: Q Hayashida's writing is immaculate

I loooove when characters are so well written I genuinely love each character and enjoy each different plotline

Dorohedoro is the best example of this, I cheer whenever literally any character is on screen

Annotation:

«After the final fight Lambert spares Narinder, believing that it was finally over. However, one little moment of distraction was enough for Narinder to give Lambert a nasty surprise right after. It didn't work as The One Who Waits planned, resulting in Lambert getting stuck inside the Red Crown.

Unable to get separated, Narinder and Lambert must now learn how to work with each other to keep sustaining the cult while also searching for a way to free Lambert from the Crown.

Both of them are in blissful ignorance, unaware of the bigger picture that was always there.»
