July OOC Intro / CR meme!

MAIN NAVIGATION

Welcome Lost Souls! And also, welcome to this round's group of new players!

Want to jump right in? This month's Substories are posted here!. As for what's been going on...

Just like the TDM set up, Jigokucho is in recovery mode after the dissipation of a curse that befell the city. It was a full-on horror apocalypse.

The curse is gone, there are rumors stirring that the turf war has ended, and the Kappa are all going back down to work on building… something. It’s all pretty hush-hush, but anyone that’s not in the Department can ask freely about it. The Enma has bigger things to be concerned with already anyway (namely the newly named cause of the curse: Haniyasu).

So what does that mean for the next two months? Well, between whatever it is being cooked up in the Underground and everything else, the theme of these two months is Tanabata! How that celebration takes shape in a place like Jigokucho will be revealed as the month goes on, so stay tuned to find out more!

Hi there! On the topic of negative CR...

Matoba here is also an exorcist (technically a haraiya but his canon also uses jujutsushi to talk about the general community they belong to so he gets the jujus, ANYWAY,) and also really, really hates youkai/nonhumans and is not afraid to say it to their faces. He's also taken Megumi somewhat under his wing within his clan as they have somewhat similar abilities. Matoba's from a shoujo canon though, so he mostly uses magic/longrange attacks and isn't a physical shonen-ass fighter LOL

I am mooostly canonblind to JJK but looking at your description here, Matoba is definitely the type to be blatant about the fact that he thinks something like Mahito should be exorcised or sealed, so I foresee some interesting friction if they cross paths!

Yes please!

I've watched, but haven't read, so from what little I've seen I think Mahito would recognize him less as the standard "exorcist" and more as a "curse user" since he's not completely against putting humans in harm's way. So straight up revealing he wants Mahito gone is an option, but tricking him to make some sort of use of him sure is, too.

Iiiiinteresting, yeah Matoba would definitely manipulate him if he was tipped off by anything Mahito reacts to or says that makes it seem as though he doesn't view Matoba immediately as a threat to him, and if he seemed as though he might have some uses. Matoba is always in the market for useful ayakashi.....

(If you're mangablind to NatsuYuu btw, I can try to avoid manga-only spoilers if you'd like! Matoba is from the end of Chapter 104 and the anime stopped around the 70's, so a lot of what hasn't been adapted yet is exorcist-centric material haha.)
