(warning: long post containing me rambling about hypmic ahead)
i've been into hypmic for over a year now (i got into the franchise in late july 2019) and it's grown into one of my hyperfixations, so i figured i might as well just. make an entire post where i gush about my best boys + my favorite division; i was primarily inspired by everyone talking about their favorite d4dj girls so i thought, why not talk about my favorite characters from another idol franchise i happen to be really into?
ok, let's get started!

first up is saburo! sure, he can be a narcissistic little shit (i say that with love) but that's what makes him so entertaining! i highkey relate to his snarky personality and tendency to believe he's better than most adults (seriously, there's so many stupid adults out there -_-). also, he's so cute!

riou is soooooo gentle and sweet. you'd expect him to be quite intimidating and threatening at first glance (especially considering who his teammates are), but he's far from it! i honestly have a big crush on him, and if you ask me, his survival skills mean he'd make for a wonderful husband (minus the cooking...i dont want to eat rats and bugs). also, he's a himbo.

oh, ichiro, ichiro, ichiro....it's hard not to see why the fandom more or less unanimously loves him so much. he's a good big brother who unconditionally loves his bros, he's kind and supportive, he's helpful and reliable, he cooks, he cleans....ichiro, if you're reading this, i really wish you were my husband :(

samatoki wasn't initially one of my favorites but he warmed up to me as i grew more invested in the franchise and now he's one of the characters i draw the most. on one hand, he's a short-tempered, foul-mouthed gangster, but on the other hand, he's a big ol' softie who cares for his sister and respects women (no seriously! he once took down a shady massage business and rescued several uncomfortable women in skimpy outfits who were forced to work there. we stan!!)

and last but not least, my favorite division: the buster bros!!!
i just. LOVE their brotherly bonds and urban/street aesthetic. though the primary reason they're my favorite division is because i relate to all three of them in some way: weeb who gets excited talking about anime and hates those who pick on the weak (ichiro), occasionally brash and easily angered but has a strong sense of justice (jiro), snarky and dry at times (saburo). i really hope they win the second drb!!
im so sorry for rambling like this lol, im pretty sure nobody on the planet asked for this post dsjsfdksfjh
