  • A.I.’s Hymn is a reference to a romantic love song

  • A.I.’s Hymn or Ai no Sanka [ Aiの賛歌 / 愛の賛歌 ] is a reference to a love song, originally written in French “ Hymne à l'Amour”, but there was also a popular Japanese version which very loosely leans on the original.

    This is the English translation of the Japanese version “Ai no Sanka”.

    Hold me in your burning arms

    I want to live with you, just the two of us

    Till I die, I just want to love

    Till I die, I’ll love you

    Press your cheek against mine

    Burn me with your kisses

    Meld with me in pleasure

    If I could live

    Together with you

    I wouldn’t need anything

    I wouldn’t need anything

    To live by your side

    That is my only wish

    I need nothing else

    Together with you

    We hold each other tightly

    As you tangle your burning fingers in my hair

    As you make love to me

    You kiss me deeply

    My love burns like a flame

    A flame that burns me

    This love melts my heart 

    (This is very interesting, as the Ignis were named after the legend of the forbidden fire, thus that means that Ai’s fire is the burning flame of love.)


    This is the English translation of the French version “ Hymne à l'Amour ”.

    The Hymn of Love

    The blue sky over us can collapse on itself

    and the ground can (really) cave in.

    Little matters to me if you love me

    I couldn’t care less about the whole world

    As long as love will flood my mornings

    As long as my body will tremble under your hands

    The problems make little difference to me

    My love, because you love me. 

    I will go to the end of the world

    I will dye my hair blond

    If you ask me to

    I will go take down the moon

    I will steal fortune

    if you ask me to. 

    I will renounce my country

    I will renounce my friends

    if you ask me to.

    One could really laugh at me

    I will do anything

    if you ask me to. 

    if one day life tears you away from me

    if you die than you will be far from me

    what’s it matter if you love me

    because I will die too.

    in the blue of all the immensity

    in heaven, no more problems

    my love do you believe that we love each other

    God, reunite those who love each other.

  • characters who are absolutely convinced down to their bones that they are unlovable being subjected to the mortifying ideal of being wholly and unconditionally loved. that’s the good stuff. never get tired of it.

  • The curse of modern fandom is that it has allowed fans to get even closer to artists, but they won't view the artists as people.

    Human limits, human mistakes, human feelings, human needs, are never ascribed to artists, and when other fans rightfully point out, "hey, humans are making this, maybe don't harass them or demand they cater to your personal tastes," it gets shut down under, "uh, people who make popular mainstream things are automatically Public Figures who are also probably rich, so eat the rich and destroy artists over every perceived minor fault. <3"

    Even though there's, y'know, a really big strike currently going on because those artists are very much not rich or influential or in control of the bullshit.

  • The more friends I make in the various facets of the entertainment industry, and the more widely my own art gets shared, the more I realize that a lot of y'all genuinely don't see artists as human beings if they meet some arbitrary standard of Being Known Online.

    There is no amount of online fame that makes someone subhuman and a valid target for blatant disrespect and harassment.

  • Contrary to popular belief, you do not actually own and control a piece of art just because you like it a lot. The artists are not subject to your personal whims and tastes. They owe you nothing.

    Out of curiosity which ygo series have you watched already and what are your opinions of them ?

  • OOPS i completely missed this ask but i’ve watched gx and i’m 2/3 of the way through vrains! i haven’t watched enough of the other series for anything in-depth, so i’ll just answer it for these two!

    gx: for such a huge main cast, i was surprised by how much all the characters grew on me. even the one-off side characters are memorable (abidos the third, i’ll never forget you). i also love how stupidly ridiculous some of the episodes get? it never fails to make me laugh

    judai is also one of my favorite characters ever. i love dumbasses with hearts of gold. i love his single-minded passion for dueling. i love his fearlessly endless optimism, his unfaltering determination, and the way he naturally brings people together by just being himself. he gets more jaded later on (his depression era) but he manages to rekindle his passion for the things he loves while still retaining everything he learned through those life experiences and i’m just. ugh. i love him

    vrains: this series is what got me back into the actual physical tcg (salamangreat represent!!!) (i play rikka sunavalon now but salads are forever) so if anything it’ll have a soft spot in my heart because of that. i’m around episode… 80ish right now? so i haven’t gotten to The Major Stuff yet (soon). but i really like it so far!! i’m the kind of person who gets into things primarily because i like the characters and vrains 100% nailed that. I LOVEEE TAKERU this is a soulburner appreciation page. yusaku and ryoken are also my babygirls

    characters aside, my favorite thing about vrains are the duels??? they’re so fun??? yusaku pulling off an extra link was legit one of the most hype moments in the entire show. on that note, i’m personally offended ghost girl didn’t win more duels? her deck is atrocious (i am saying this positively). she runs imperm?? this girl plays meta. i cant believe she lost to mirror force. i think i actually laughed so hard i cried when revolver revealed his ultra powerful secret card and it was mirror force
