D.N.Angel (1997-present) Stage 3, Part 15

I know this was published in the 2000s but tbh the soul of this series is firmly in the 90s. I mean, look at that Boy Band Posing!!!

How about an AU

where Dark and Krad?

Don’t actually exist.

They’re the result of… fuck, I think it was schizophrenia.

I was actually going to write that story… But couldn’t figure it out.

Might start it in the future again, tho

Daisuke believes Dark exists because his disorder is a made-up special kind of one where he inherited it.

Krad is the result of all the abuse poor Sato had to deal with with his father.

AND IT’S A BROMANCE STORY

oh that made me sad

now you get to partake in my vivid imagination, because if I have to suffer a ruined childhood then so does everyone else

WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING THIS TO ME

#why is this going around again #havent i suffered enough today #dnangel

oh gosh ur making me want to do a sequel picture

Okay so, I’m sure we’ve all asked this at one time in our lives

“Why the hell is a freaking rabbit Dark’s wings?”

WELL I’LL FUCKING TELL YOU WHY

Back when Buddhism had a huge influence in Japanese society, there was prohibition on eating meat…specifically if it came from a 4-legged animal. Things like birds were okay.

But the Japanese really wanted to eat rabbits. So they came up with this explanation that the big ears on rabbits were their wings, and as such rabbits were birds, and okay to eat. That has survived in the counting system; while most (small) animals tend to be referred to using the counter “hiki”, birds and rabbits alike use the counter wa.

Wa = 羽

YOU KNOW, THE KANJI THAT MEANS FEATHER.

AND WITH FUCKING USES HIS EARS TO FLY

I’M SO DONE

*Takes notes on this for University*

Ninjangel, if it calms you down, us Europeans did something very simmilar! 😀

Catholic monks were permitted from eating meat other than fish during certain times on the year. But they really, really wanted to eat beaver…

…You can probably guess it already. Same story, different animal, really. They simply declared the beaver a fish. X’D
