Anemo supremacy π
Snufkin's english voice actor is swedish, and thus I was trying to listen to Joxter's accent to see if he's the same. But I couldn't determine his accent.
Until I heard the way he pronounced "Moominpappa" and I was like "FINNISH!!!!!!!!!! π«΅ THAT'S A FINNISH MAN SPEAKING ENGLISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HEAR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! π«΅"

aw what a funny silly goofy guy :)
:)
...π um. i need to talk about this kid?
he's so bright and passionate and lively and he cares so, so, SO much about the people around him. literally his biggest dream in life is to become a world famous "star" solely to make people everywhere smile. but there's all these little things about him that are easy enough to brush off due to the chaotic nature of the wxs stories - there's always something else to catch your attention. but i'm deeply concerned.
he's so... forgetful? it's played off as a quirky character trait and i think it's pretty clever that it's being approached that way - because if you sit and think about it, the things he forgets are odd. at the beginning of the wxs story, he can't remember why he decided to pursue acting. he can't remember the play he saw when he and saki were small. he can't remember her smile as she watched the actors on stage - the smile that spurred him forward into the person he's become today.
he doesn't recognize the plushies in SEKAI as being the very same plushies he used to put on mini-plays for saki while she was in the hospital. childhood memories get blurry with time, sure, but these sorts of... foundational, deeply important memories are not forgotten that way. they don't get erased, even if you are a silly forgetter-forgetful-forgetterson like tsukasa is treated as. unless your brain is repressing something.
the wonderland SEKAI is tsukasa's alone. and the only other person we've seen who's had emotions strong enough to create their own SEKAI is. mafuyu. the fact that tsukasa manages to parallel her of all the characters is so... disturbing. and hear me out:
on a certain level, i think wonderland and the empty SEKAI are similar places.
like, empty is... empty. yeah. it's easy to lose yourself there. to let go of your concerns and "disappear." all of the n25 members have commented that it's calming and that they enjoy spending time there.
wonderland is full of things to do. insane magical rollercoasters, singing flowers, talking stuffed animals - it's impossible to worry about anything there. only fun, fun, fun, fun! smiles and happy faces everywhere you look! to be blunt: it's the epitome of a distraction.
mafuyu loses herself in calm and quiet (her SEKAI, her empty aquarium) - so she can forget she exists and be nothing and rest for a while. tsukasa loses himself in constant upbeat, flashy distractions - so he can forget he exists and just play his role as the Star who makes everyone in the world smile. both of their SEKAIs are an escape in every sense of the word.
the mafuyu-tsukasa parallels go further, too. they both have emotionally neglectful parents that have pushed them into thinking they have to be perfect and successful to, like... justify their existence.
i don't remember which of the gazillion card stories it gets shown in and i don't want to dig through them to figure it out, but we See that when saki's illness started getting worse, the tenma parents stopped coming home on a regular basis. tsukasa was left alone FAR too much for how old he was. in the doll festival event, we see him running to the hospital all by himself to bring saki her dolls, pretty late in the evening, and... not a word from their parents? were they not home again, or did they just not notice?
or did they decide that tsukasa is a strong big brother who can take care of himself And saki? despite being, like... 10 at the oldest? (that's how old he seems there to me anyway)
and i want to talk about the world hasn't even started yet. because as kaito said, it's JUST tsukasa's song. this is his SEKAI. like. a brief compilation of all the lyrics that stand out to me, for bad reasons:
With a cast who can use magic and monsters who are burdened with trauma,
Even I know that everyone's destined to disappear someday...
With a ticket that's long past expired and a heartbeat fading over time,
"Let's come again next year," is said without any promises being made
...
There's too much noise, so much noise and it keeps getting worse
I want to be inspired straightforwardly, just as I always have
In a deteriorating, abandoned room I simply dream on
...
Hey! In the depths of Hell, a happy ending plays out
Hey! This world hasn't even started yet
With a thick-skinned king and an alchemist full of desires,
We'll all someday return to the earth, leaving our attachments behind
...
There's too much conflict, too much conflict and it keeps growing
It's like when our arms are all tangled together, I couldn't help but worry
So I'll brush off the dust and reboot it all
...
Hey! The best of the worst of crappy plays
Hey! A flag that'll paint over a bad ending
Hey! This world hasn't even started yet
Hey! Let's cross the end of all of this, partying forever
Hey! Spinning on a never-ending merry-go-round
Hey! This world hasn't even started yet
Hey! Let's break the plans for a harmonious future
Ring the bell that marks a new life
it's not even like. hopeful in a bittersweet sense. it says right there in the lyrics that tsukasa doesn't... expect much out of his life, in terms of being happy and permanently surrounded by people who love him.
it's a reflection of inner turmoil, self-worth issues, fears of abandonment, fears of not mattering enough and being forgotten - fears of not being the perfect success everyone has always expected him to be. you just don't see it, thanks to the flashy lights and dazzling grins and confetti cannons going off in your face and loud drums.
idk. tsukasa's interesting this way. he seems to have repressed all of his memories of a lonely, frightened childhood. nights he had to sleep all alone in a great big house, confronting the idea of mortality from a Very young age, because no one knew if saki would survive. these are feelings unfitting for a future star - so he must discard them. reboot and start anew, so to speak.
and yknow like... he clearly understands that he does have value. in a way? he knows he matters to saki, and then to toya, and then to the rest of wxs. but judging by the lyrics of this song, he sees these attachments as very temporary (might have something to do with him being forced to confront the mortality of his baby sister without the proper support a young child Needs to work through and understand something so frightening, and his brain just didn't develop its emotional permanence skills very well) and expects to fade into the background of their lives. and i don't think seeing saki thriving now that she's out of the hospital (reconnecting with her childhood friends and starting a band) and then seeing toya thrive as well (finding His People and learning to rebel against his father all on his own) - is helping that mindset. it probably confirms to him that like, he's served his purpose in their lives? maybe they'll always love him, but they don't need him anymore. and i think he's very much expecting the same thing to happen with wxs and he is Terrified
(it's. obviously not true like he'll always mean the world to saki and toya. and even if wxs has to disband so nene can pursue her specific dreams and whatnot, he'll always mean the world to them, too. but it's true To Him. so.)
anyway i don't have a real conclusion here. so tsukasa tenma
Hear me out: The cane is the key (?
Anyway, I hope we could see Peri passing through an anti-paranormal cabin for some reason...
just saying π
YEAH LETS TSLK ABOUT TSUKASA ROOM!
I meant like for his room I would see Tsukasa as a minimalist that only need things that he found useful like the large mirror with a spotlight for his posing and the fancy chair for some theater reading.
And for Tsukasa square design I see Tsukasa as an organiser that arrange the things he interest in without caring much for the looks but he still put some colours here and there for attractions.
So yeah both of these doesn't show Tsukasa the way I thought it would be. For someone who is loud and likes to stand out I thought his room and square theme would be a bit more standoffish. They still stand out but in a different way.
Iβll do anything but no.1
