first-ish impressions of project sekai characters

#projectsekai
i never remember much about project sekai but it’s very popular and i heard the localization is good. i always download it and then delete it immediately lol 😭
today i had volleyball tryouts 💪🏽 the chances of me getting on the team are very low but i got to see a bunch of my friends from school and whack balls at them!! for free!! fun fun

[@Enbypotat53]

I'M CACKLING AT THE ACCURACY OF SOME OF THESE LIKE AKITO HATING DOGS MAN IS TERRIFIED OF THEM 💀💀😭😭😭

[@Urlocalrocach]

WHY DO I NOT UNDERSTAND WHY PPL BE SCARED OF DOGS😭🖐️

[@Enbypotat53]

@@Urlocalrocach Sometimes (like in my ma's case) people have bad run-ins with dogs and get attacked by them, other times it's just certain breeds they're scared of (such as rottweilers). I don't understand it much myself since I adore animals, but we gotta respect peoples' fears. I'm terrified of heights, escalators, and cars, but not everyone is gonna be, and not everyone will understand those fears. Similarly, some people are afraid of dogs, and others may not understand or have those fears themselves. It's mostly a subconscious thing, but I agree, dogs are cute!

[@Urlocalrocach]

@@someone4585 same Because one of my aunties owns a bunch of pets and twin dogs😔

[@sthynthee]

​@@Urlocalrocach I was firstly scared of dogs because rabies sounded horrible. Years later got cornered by a dog but got barely saved by my dad, so now I can't go near stray or non-leashed dogs out of fear of being bitten.

[@snicksss]

My first impression of Tsukasa was: “He’s kind of sassy that’s cool.” and then he blushed while doing the wonderhoy. ever since then I haven’t been able to escape this tsukasa abyss. it just doesn’t stop. i have literally never obsessed over a single character so much in my entire life and i will need therapy by the time project sekai potentially ends.

holy shit you're spot on for pretty much everything!!! I think Honami is a big astronomy + astrology fan but like the fandom never remembers she exists crying

[@froqqie]

it’s so depressing how no one remembers Honami I, like she’s my number 1 fav character I love her sm😭

[@parenthesiss]

@@froqqie “Honda” 💀 Nah but seriously, she’s not my number one favorite character but I really like Honami. Ichika is probably the character I care the least a about :/ It sucks seeing anybody be “the least favorite” because I think literally everyone in project sekai is a pretty good character. Also will nobody talk about honamis phenomenal boots??? Like what they are so pretty!!

[@froqqie]

@@parenthesiss HONDA😭😭 ALSO HER BOOTS ARE SO FRIGGIN CUTE

[@ma.2089]

She’s my fav L/N girl lol. The L/N girls overall b underrated (& I say that as someone who isn’t too fond of Shiho and Ichika). They need more love overall lol

[@nenesuperfanchangingpfpsfo1213]

THE ACCURACY. When I was a bandori player watching a what your project sekai kin says about you I thought mizuki was some sort of famous fashion artist, haruka was a girl who once went to antartica, saw penguins, then fangirled, while honami being a mcdonalds worker who loves apple pies. Don't ask me how this headcanoned upon my head 😭

4:06 u are spot on with this, she doesn’t get sleep because she’s always writing music. her backstory is quite tragic #emo

saki is very sickly which put her in the hospital basically all throughout middle school which is part of the reason all of the leo/need members grew apart

[@pippip1075]

As a project Sekai player, tsukasa is best boy

[@smproject16]

Just goes to show how character design is so important. The fact you were spot on is enough evidence alone

[@Stephungus]

My first thought about some characters: Saki: Pick me girl Kohane: some random girl An: Miss Nagatoro Akito: Childe Toya: Todoroki Tsukasa: I’m not gonna like him, his name reminds me of a character I can’t tell if I hate or love Rui: I like this guy’s aesthetic Mikudayo: AAAA WHAT IS THIS CREATURE Mizuki: I like her(Ok listen, I know their pronouns are They/Them, but I didn’t know that back then) Nene: I like her as well, know what, I like this entire unit, I’ll go for this one

[@ssmile4me]

pick me girl 🙁🙁

[@Stephungus]

@@ssmile4me I’m sorry ok 😰

[@NyankoDayz]

Same thought on Toya. As an artist, I know how draining it is when your OC is compared to another popular character so I don't really do this type of comparison. BUT Toya have similar hair with Todoroki and I just went "This boi gotta have a strong similarity with him" and I was right (major father issue) 💀

[@Stephungus]

@@NyankoDayz No. And his name is literally Toya(Dabi’s real name is Toya) Are you sure this guy isn’t related to Todoroki in any way??

[@QqQ3Three3]

I honestly thought that Saki would be a bitter mean girl turned nice, but then after my first scene with her, she became my favorite for a while (she's still one of my top favorites, she's a sweetheart!).

[@mizudoria]

Finally some Honami appreciation! Im so glad omg she’s so undrrated in the fandom like i want to cry 😭 Also I totalny agree, Tsukasa is so cute! Wait til you see his backstory, i always cry while reading it 😐 And yes, project Sekai cards are literally something else. I see what game developerski were trying to achieve… p2w players such as myself hahah

[@normanteio5402]

the mizuki part,, same

[@nuuvemsmt]

AKITO ONE IS ON POINT LMAO

[@nommi5105]

my first impression of tsukasa was "DAMN he loud" and now he has somehow become my fav

[@twinkletraveler]

being 10% sick meant i started coughing and laughing at the same time when you put that one tsukasa clip in there

[@YurikooS_]

Youre so right about Emu bestie

[@Yuvkki]

omg an Arashi and Toya stan I love you for this

[@Seiza25]

I want to protect Mafuyu too! She deserves happiness. Purple character supremacy

[@ma.2089]

Yo you pretty on point for everything (with only a few understandable mistakes). Only thing I’m surprised you didn’t mention was how gay for each other Akito and Toya (orange and blue guys in VBS) are since you mentioned An and Kohane’s gayness. Anyway, getting their vibes from their character designs and their cards is such a cute idea? I’ll be very happy to see a follow up where you actually play the game/see the story.

[@swishies]

[@danielyuan9862]

You're shockingly accurate for someone who knows little about the game. I've had a bit more exposure to Project Sekai, and there are some things you brought up that I haven't even thought of myself and I was like "oh, that makes sense" I wouldn't be surprised if there is something I thought you mischaracterized but it turns out to be right as I learn more about the characters.

Why is everything so spot on lmao you got everything. Toya being boring, Akito not liking dogs, An and Kohane being lesbian (and Saki being totally lesbian but doesn’t know it yet), Ichika with the mc vibes, Honami being an honor student, Ena liking fashion (specifically for selfies I think), everything about Mizuki, Kanade, Minori, Haruka, and Shizuku, Rui giving off huge Cheshire Cat vibes (I picked up on those too when I first started playing), Nene being a gamer, just everything

The way you were so accurate with literally all of them oml Rui is cat like yes but he's actually just a loser with attachment issues dw about it Mafuyu is. not okay. definitely she's not doing good Kasa is the fool in his group but we know so little about him he has SO MUCH ANGST MATERIAL THAT'S BARELY USED. DEVS HATE HIM. And Shiho technically didn't cause the group to separate? She pushed away Ichika and Honami but that was after Saki landed in the hospital so their group was already a bit broken

"I heard the localization is good" LMAO who said that? Anyway, this shows how well these characters were designed. This is the third person I see blind react to the characters and the guesses are all pretty spot on!

[@aj__io]

my friend told me :> is the localization bad?

[@marie-op]

@@aj__io There's a lot of useless changes to the script. Some catchphrases are inconsistent and some jokes that would have worked perfectly fine in English were rewritten for no reason. There's also the thing where instead of changing (debatably) offensive content to fit better to the west or just adding a disclaimer, they just flat out removed a huge part of the story. But I don't want to get too into that. It's better for English speakers to read it directly from the localized version, since raw translations feel a little too straight-forward, but that really doesn't make the localization good. I'm saying this as a person who partially understands Japanese
