My guess is that Thoma originally from Fontaine or just has a French name because his parents decided to give him one. In French, the “S” in “Thomas” isn’t pronounced, so tōma/tooma/touma or alternatively Tohma/Thoma as a way of transliterating it from French to Japanese(トーマ) and then back into English makes sense. Also, in the French subtitles of the livestream, his name is left spelled as “Thomas” when he is introduced.

I think Thoma appearance is based more in a Japanese delinquent (idk how that kind of culture is called, sorry) they normally have for hair a pompadour or blonde color or both, the history of this kind of culture has relationship with WW2 because after the war Japan had to open more to foreign market, making a lot of American things come to the country, one of which was the rockabilly culture or whatever is called, mainly because of Grease and other things, some Japanese teenagers started copying this and the nationalist of Japan (Japan is a very nationalistic country) started calling them delinquents because they weren't japanese enough, at some point they really become this subculture that is tied to criminals even though it started at something innocent, other thing to note is that a lot of Japanese criminals really like to make clear they're criminals for example you can know when someone is from the Yakuza just by knowing their clothes and the same with the mention above. So I Think Thoma is a character who is against the Shogun possibly by the same reasons as Kazuha's friends and he makes clear his position using cultural things that are not from Inazuma, making him like a rebel which it's like their real life counterpart, and probably his personality would be like the majority of characters based around this movement being a guy that at the surface is very rough and tough but in the inside he has a good heart and wants to help people, just like for example Josuke from JJBA. Sorry if I made some mistake I'm not 100% sure of all of this and my language is not English but I'm very happy of giving my opinion about Thoma, which I hope to get him when he comes out, he looks very handsome.
@StrikerWasTaken3 жыл бұрын
I 100% agree with you here, blonde hair in "anime" games is also pretty common on half-japanese characters. So he could be either. The persona series is one of those that comes first to mind, where even though many characters have "weirder" hair colors the only ones that are ever talked about by other people in the games are the blonde ones, like Ryuji (delinquent) or Ann (Half Japanese, Half European).

for kokomi: i think her clothing design might be i inspired partly by japanese 羽衣 (hagoromo), mainly because of the sash on her back (ribbon). hagoromo is depicted in a lot of japanese folklore, worn by deities and women from the heavens. she also has the “two bunny-loop” hairstyle that a lot of them had as well. it reminds me of orihime (part of the tanabata story, which is also celebrated on 7/7) and an old story called 天女の羽衣. basically the story goes: a fisherman is bathing in the river when he sees the hagoromo (sash) hanging from a tree. entranced by the beauty, he goes to grab it. he is met by a 天女 (basically a woman frm the heavens) that asks him to return it, or else she can’t return home. idk if the “diety/heaven” type aspect has anything concrete to do w her character but i thought it was interesting (also the way they meshed it with oceanic elements)

In the current web event, he is totally a dog lover, and his leaked model originally wore a arrowhead-like necklace, which has since been redesigned to a dog tag necklace. I feel this is a pun motivated redesign. (and probably one that will embolden head-cannon artists to ship gorou and tohma and up their sales with community based hype) As he works for Ayaka, he can probably also use these pyro-dog spirits to be a good pyro-applicator to pair with Ayaka so she can trigger melts.

There's a theory that my friend puts in the plate that Sangonomiya Kokomi is tied to Japanese myth of Koi fish that tries to overcome waterfall and turns into dragon when (or maybe after and not when? I forgot the exact one) it finally overcomes the waterfall. From that he also theorize that Kokomi can turn into the actual dragon in an implication that Koi fish is herself and the Sangonomiya resistance and the waterfall is Baal and the people that agreed with her. This is also fueled by the fact that there's no dragon in sight so far, only a dead snake as the closest. I do throw in that she may not the dragon but the guardian of said dragon as the other possibility This may be a good food for thought for you

It seems that a pyro vision is important somehow in this trailer? Maybe tohma has a bigger role than we thought, since by the top of my head, he has a pyro vision, doesnt look Inuazuman, and in yaes dialougue bit it showed a pyro vision, in the short black and white scene it was a pyro vision the traveler reaches out for. Idk tho just speculation

I think the ears (?) on Kokomi's head is reminiscent of some depictions of 人魚 in Japanese myth as well. If you catch one and does not release it back into the sea, it can cause storms, and seeing a ningyo washed up on land is premonition of war, so I find that quite fitting.

in the current web event, it is actually stated that Thoma isn’t from Inazuma but instead from another land (which they did not name the place)

I think the reason why Thoma has an Inazuman vision frame is maybe because he got his vision when he was in inazuma.

when you said "you might recognise this similar mask" I was so sure you were gonna show Goro Akechi's mask from Persona 5. They both are based on the crow tengu and it's frankly hilarious to see the similarities

The Thoma theory is actually correct, in the latest distant voyage web event theres a part where it has something on thoma (found it on an Instagram post and saved in photos) and it says that thoma isn’t from inazuma, directly corresponding to your theory. (I’m thinking he might be from Fontaine since that’s the only other region that would prolly fit since Natlan is indigenous America and sumeru is based off of South Asia, and definitely not snezhnaya (maybe) since so far sneznayahn characters wear significantly different clothing, but then again there’s scaramouche so that could also be incorrect, just based off of my reasoning tho

Am I the only person that's interested in Kokomi's hair? It fades into a blue color which is a unique design they've mostly kept to Archons (excluding Xiao)
