hello!! this is the first time i’m talking to you through my new incest-blog acct; i’ve sent stuff before on anon, mostly about random anime and here i am again with another random anime sibling pairing. i don’t know if anyone’s suggested Soul Eater an anime where people can turn into weapons and form a partnership with someone who wields them. it’s kind of reminiscent of the kirishima duo from tokyo ghoul, where we don’t even find out the brother exists until later on, and he’s on the path to evil. tsubaki and masamune of soul eater are part of a special weapons family, but masamune doesn’t inherit the special ability to have multiple forms, so he feels inferior to his younger sister, who also has confidence issues of her own. present day, he’s become pretty psychotic and evil and “absorbs” innocent human souls (which is taboo and has intense consequences) and tsubaki is determined to stop him before he fully becomes “kishin.”
SPOILER: they fight but it’s obvious that he’s become a lot more powerful than her because of his evil methods, and he constantly belittles her, at the same time accusing her of pitying him and treating him delicately when they were younger because he was inferior to her. (there’s cute flashbacks where she would play whatever he wanted so that he’d actually spend time with her.)
finally, she resolves to not mother him anymore and really tries to give him a fight. he “touches” her soul and realizes that she’d cared for him all along and allows her to absorb his soul. there’s a really touching moment, in my opinion, where she cradles his soul and grieves for her brother. throughout the fight, he says that tsubaki (which means camellia) is a flower with no fragrance, but before he dies he realizes that camellias do have a beautiful fragrance. i don’t think this pairing is popular, and i cannot find a single fanpiece for it, but honestly it’s so intriguing to me, even if it’s tragic that she had to kill him. it’s been a while since i’ve watched the anime, but i think i remember that at some times tsubaki would talk to her brother’s soul.

also, there’s a genderbent arc and male!tsubaki looks almost exactly like masamune, and i love when siblings look so similar, they are basically each other in different genders (which so often happens in anime). thanks for being such a great, open blog as always!
Wow. It all sounds so beautiful and sad and wonderful. I’m amazed there’s not any content for this ship, even if the fandom for the anime isn’t huge.
Thank you so much for writing all of this out and providing pics. I feel like I really have a sense of their relationship. And thank you for all of the kind words you’ve said about my blog. Best of luck with yours!!!!!
