Trick Or Treat!

HI HElLo!!! Sorry for the bother but I’ve been kinda going in circles trying to find more info on Toubyou!! It seems that whenever I look em up, I just find the SMT renders. Is this a case of like, a mistranslation or something else? HES LIKE. Such a Funny Little Guy and my mind craves more info on him.

(They do kinda remind me of those Snake Wine bootles. If only a little) Thank you for your time tho!!!!!!

Let me detail my process for situations like this when I want to find more info on obscure demons:

1 Toubyou is a Japanese demon, so it's likely "real"

2 I search using its name as rendered in the Japanese version of the games: トウビョウ, with the intention of finding how the name is rendered in Kanji (to search again for more info, if necessary)

3 The top two results are its Japanese Wikipedia page and Pixiv wiki (these Pixiv wikis often have reliable information, at least for Japanese stuff) The Wikipedia page offers a Kanji name: 土瓶.

4 Next I'll run what I find through a translator

5 Lastly, I'll compare the new info to an officially translated in-game profile to see if it's in the ballpark/ the original Atlus intention for the demon:

6 The bit about the golden ring around the neck is consistent between sources, so this seems to be what you're looking for

The Wikipedia page has more sources to look through that should lead you down an even deeper Toubyou rabbit hole.

Ninjas don’t wear black. They used to disguise themselves as civilians. Unlike ninjas in movies, the real guys were smart enough to know that wearing a black outfit with a face mask wasn’t the best strategy for blending in. Source

I’ve been thinking of how those rich anime girls or Ojou-samas and how they laugh and I got to wonder if one can imagine one laughing in French, Like not in a dignified ohohohoh~ but more like an exaggerated hon hon hon laugh

stupid leftists and their belief in *checks notes* the intrinsic value of human life

Something on my mind that seems funny to me is when any series has people making good ending AUs to offset the tragedy and then there’s a part where this one character that dies in canon still dies like,

“No no you in particular can’t have good things so you have to die”

Which would be funnier if there were others saved from their fate like it’s just you who has to suffer. Nobody else. Just that one guy in particular.

It’s even funnier if there’s no ill will in the AU creator’s eyes for that character, they just think that they HAVE to die or it feels wrong.

op turned off reblogs but I want this forever

So, what is a Blorbo? Like I know it means one’s favorite character but like, does it have a specific appearance that fits all criteria and are they different then sexy men like, is it interchangeable, exclusive, an evolution? Can the onceler be a blorbo and a sexyman or just a sexyman?

Tumblr doesn’t have enough coherent answers and not enough people asking the right questions, so I’ll start us off.
