Kamonohashi Ron No Kindan Suiri - Blog Posts
Made more but tum won't let me post more pics in one post 😔💔😭🥺😭😔💔🥺😭😭💔
Guys I'm so dumb😭😭😭
I was just listening to some old Bebé songs and so I thought huh maybe I should check the translation🤔
And then I come across word “tonto" which literally means "dumb" in spanish👁️👄👁️
The thing is it sounds like "toto" when you say it fast and you know what that means right🫠
Why r they like this☠☠☠
rontoto in space ๋⭑🛸๋⭑ (reference artwork)
I picked the first scenario but I really like to imagine the mix of #1 and #4. Because let's be honest if Ron falls first he's gonna take a ton of time to figure this out for himself. And while he does that Toto will clear Ron's feelings for himself too🙃
Also I headcanon Toto to be at least a few years older than Ron and more experienced in like social life(?) so he must realise it quite quickly when someone likes him romantically. The only reason why he doesn't is cause he doesn't pay to much attention to Ron's weird behaviour (because he is like that all the time) so he probably would know that Ron is in love only after a while😶
the results of the rontoto poll i did two weeks ago (´∩｡• ᵕ •｡∩`)
Between Ron and Toto, who falls for the other first and would the other person know?
#1 — Ron falls first, but Toto can't tell Ron likes him. (58.3%)
First place with an overwhelming majority of votes was for the headcanon that Ron falls first while Toto remains clueless of the fact. Indeed, it is easy to see how Ron, who is capable of investigating his own feelings, would become aware of any budding romance towards his detective partner right from the get-go. Meanwhile, Toto whose primary focus almost always lies in helping people through solving cases, might not even have the room to entertain the notion that anything else is going on between him and his friend.
#2 — Who fell first is unclear, but each think their feelings are unrequited. (22.9%)
In second place comes the headcanon that who fell first is anyone's guess, but that they both think the other would not return their feelings! Despite being a man of logic, one could imagine that perhaps when it comes to the matters of his own heart, even a genius like Ron might falter. On Toto's side of things, it could be the case that he finds it difficult to picture himself as a suitable romantic partner for Ron, when they clearly have many differences that set them apart.
#3 — Who fell first is unclear, but they both know they have fallen for each other. (8.3%)
The third most voted headcanon is probably the happiest one, where despite it being unclear who fell first, both of them know that they have feelings for each other. With the way Ron and Toto have seamlessly fit into each other's lives, it's not hard to imagine that their friendship might evolve into something more just as naturally and without a fuss.
#4 — Ron falls first and Toto can tell Ron likes him. (6.2%)
Second to last is the headcanon that Ron falls first and Toto can tell that Ron likes him. Despite not being remarkable when it comes to the matters of logic and deductions, Toto has shown to be someone who is quite empathetic. And let's not forget that, for much of the story, Toto has been Ron's emotional pillar who easily gauges when the genius is feeling down in the dumps. Given this, it's not so far-fetched to think that Toto might sense it, should Ron starts to see him in a whole new light.
#5 — Toto falls first, and Ron can tell Toto likes him. (2.1%) AND Toto falls first, but Ron can't tell Toto likes him. (2.1%)
Tied for the last place are the headcanons that Toto falls first, regardless of whether Ron can or can't tell Toto likes him. It is quite fun to imagine Toto succumbing to Ron's charms. Sure, he has witnessed what a superlative hottie Ron can be before, but it is a whole other ballgame once that charisma starts to make his own heart race. Whether Ron figures out Toto's flustered reactions are rooted in newfound romantic feelings, it's for you to decide!
Okay, that's all, fellow RonToto enjoyers! (｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡ I know some of you already shared which headcanon(s) you prefer in the replies of the poll but I would still love to know which option you ultimately picked and why. Mine was #3 (ㆁωㆁ) even though I like to think about all the scenarios listed!
Emmm so I've finally gotten to that place called "Toto tea" with my pocket size Toto👀 (a post for @a-forbidden-detective)
It's a small bubble tea shop in the center of Moscow. I couldn't take a normal photo😅 but it's pretty cute inside
I bought there a classic bubble tea and it was really tasty😊. And then I took a small walk around so here are some photos
" why do u even like them and their partnership toto is going to betray Ron anyways-" WDYM THEYRE SOULMATES TOTO WONT DO ANYTHING
I'm so sorry I'm suck at editing but this song reminds me of them 💔💔
couple’s t-shirt idea
A day in a life of RonToto: Slovenia
Hey y’all!!
There is a pub and a coffeehouse that are named after me. We are somewhere in Maribor, the second biggest city in Slovenia. Ljubljana being the capital and the largest one. Ron is so amused he says the coffee here is so good, I shouldn’t feel ashamed that the kavarna has the same name.
It turns out that the owner’s grandfather gave the coffeehouse its name.
Anyway, this case is kinda hilarious. It is about “vampires” and all. Will tell everything as soon as we are back.
It is so hot so we have decided to stay on the other side of the river Drava. Unlucky that we are wasps plagued our sweaty arses (Ron's words).
ron must have been really anxious while toto took that long pause to read all the incoming texts
and then hearing toto whisper his name... i would be sweating too ron! (• ▽ •;)
ALSO I NOTICED TOTO HAS FANGS (PLURAL) IN THIS LAST PANEL IT'S SOOOOO CUTE (灬º‿º灬)♡
I'm thinking about the similarities between these two frames way more than I should
When you've hit rock bottom but you still can hit on that bottom next to you
I totally agree with all that and also.. yeah
Toto's character is kinda blank in some aspects and it has a lot of "empty spaces". And I think that is why he is so popular in fandom. He is not only the "eyes" of the reader, he is also a great headcanon material. Like you can imagine him smoking weed or killing ppl before and that wouldn't change the canon at all.
As for his improvement in deduction and etc.. I don't think that he would reach Ron's or Kawasemi level and I really believe that he shouldn't. He obviously gets better but his main goal is to help people and protect them and he doesn't need to be a genius to do so (and also Ron can do it now which means that Toto kinda fulfilled his mission👀)
Anywaaay I still haven't read the latest chapters of the manga so I'm probably not the one to speak😅
When I first read new chapter, I was glad that Toto's character has a development and now not afraid to look at corpses like Ron. Plus I thought he become smarter.
However, once I re-read the chapter, I realized something. Toto hasn't grown at all as a character.
His observation skills for important details have really improved, no doubt about it. But the ability to solve riddles and deduction haven't improved at all. Toto couldn’t do it and still can’t do it. After running around with Ron for over a year, I expected to see at least some kind of thought process.
And that's Toto's problem as a character in the story. He's just... boring.
No matter how much I love Toto, (he is the best in my heart) as a character he is NOT interesting to watch. He is not growing, he is as he was in the beginning “for everything good and fluffy. I value every human life” he remained that way. And it's not a bad thing i think, but compared to others it's boring.
Maybe I'm wrong but tell me how Toto has changed throughout history? And no, there’s no mention of self-confidence here because he still has self-destructive tendencies.
Now let's take others.Ron has obviously changed a lot and that's a good thing. Kawasemi changed and stopped being so strict. Chiori stopped being so a rabid fan of detective. Even Spitz and Amamiya changed somehow. I can't say anything about Toto.
No matter how paradoxical it may sound, the only thing that makes Toto stand out from the rest is his lack of personality and mysteries around him. He literally feels like a piece of cardboard but not as living person.
Most of his actions are literally told but not shown. It's like Toto himself was left out of the picture.
So yea , I think Toto is the character who suffers most at the hands of the author in manga
Heya! Thank you for waiting.
I thought about this long and hard. Like you, I love Toto, seeing that I am a Watsonian first of all. And at times, biased.
It is not easy to give you answers, bc I might change my opinion in the coming days. But for now, I can say that your concerns are valid, that Toto as a character remains somehow stagnant. On the other hand, if you change him, just a little bit, like he has reached Ron’s level in deduction we would lose him as a stand-in for the audience. Seeing that the titular character isn’t Toto, his role is more like Jiminy Cricket. He gives advices, scolds Ron, he can’t arse finding out the solution bc he isn’t the genius character. This is Ron’s place.
Once Akira changes him to something like equal to Ron then in the grand scheme of her storytelling, his role as the receiver of wonderful deduction would be gone.
And in all honesty, it is a bit mind-boggling how will Akira direct Toto’s characterisation in a new direction without involving him as someone who is part of the antagonists or giving us hints of his familial background, if she considers him as a deuteragonist of the story. Bc so far, like any Watson-esque character, he’s become a character in the background, it is the downside of having a genius and eccentric friend.
True, it is frustrating sometimes, and he’s maybe boring bc of it. In truth we applaud him when he shows signs of improvement. But I don’t think he’ll reach Kawasemi’s excellence nor Ron’s genius bc he’s none of these things. Kawasemi changed emotionally and has become a disciple of Toto.
And yet, and yet, Akira seems to be content in status quo.
He is changing but gradually. Maybe, the moment Ron will receive his license is the moment we’ll see Toto can hold his own. Cross my fingers.
PS: that’s why i am counting on the anime crew hoping that they can remedy some issues on Toto’s characterisation, which they did during the first season.
A few days ago I started watching Daria and now I've found out that walls in her room are covered by soft panels just like the floor in Ron's apartment👀
Is it like an intp thing or just a coincidence I don't know
But I can't stop thinking that they both would be glad to live in here
(also this is another proof to Ron being insane theory)👁️👄👁️
A day in a life of RonToto: Vienna
One of the fountains of Strudlhofstiege; the palace garden park; the National Bank’s heavy door; and the historical lamppost.
Yesterday Ron and I took a walk around the AirBnB we rented in the city of Vienna. We visited the National Bank as Ron had a client there. A big shot old European aristocrat. It has to do with a person. A renowned stage actor to be exact. Ron told me to keep quiet now. So I’ll keep my mouth shut. Anyway, we visited a palace with a beautiful garden and a flight of stairs that was supposed to be one of the most beautiful of all in the city. A tip: Sigmund Freud used to live in this district and had his first consultation office here too. It is now a museum and they even preserved the couch his clients used to lie on. The birthplace of psychoanalysis.
That same day, the old aristocrat invited us for a dinner. This restaurant, Plachutta, serves traditional Viennese cuisine. He urged me to order Tafelspitz. It was so good! But the portion was probably good for two people. It was soup and main course in one. The fried potato strips were so delicious. And the soup with tender beef and bone marrow were to die for. My Japanese palate is not used to this serving. The homemade apple sauce and garlic cream were a good choice. I even had sautéed spinach. Ron had Wiener Schnitzel with potato salad and beer.
He urged me to order a Nachspeise, German word for dessert, but I was too full.
Anyway, there are a couple of Asian stores here too. To my delight one of them sells 🍡 so Ron and I grabbed one pack and we might eat them tonight.
So there you go. If Ron would let me I might talk about the case of the old aristocrat in the coming days or so.
Ah, summer in Vienna is sometimes unbearable.
With more moments where Toto has a blank face, especially during the Ferris wheel arc, I can't help but feel like Toto is just pretending to be happy and kind. And most likely this was not done out of malicious intent (although who knows, the theory that Toto is a villain remains valid) it is still an interesting point.
This would explain the rather strange explanation of how Toto found a safe place so quickly (sorry but it really looks like it was made up) and how he could get away from his stalker.
As long as we are NOT SHOWN how he does it, nothing prevents him from lying that he was being pursued or something like that. Although this is unlikely.
Anyway, Toto again leaves me with more questions than answers. It seems like the he is the main character of the detective story, but he has biggest mysteries.
(I was also shocked that he has a cousin)
Oh god.
Can you imagine if Ron had invented another person to cope with his misery? Meaning every single character that we have met through Toto never existed. The cases. The incidents with the Auberge, the Dolphin ship, everything were only ideas on Ron’s mind.
That would be a lonely place.
Hmmm… interesting idea. Toto has become Ron’s biggest mystery.
