10th Mix Akihiko and Haruki 🍁🌸 #given #ギヴン #秋春

I paid a lot of money for a magazine considering the only reason I bought it was for the old Kizu Natsuki interview from Da Vinci magazine, but the interview was actually better than I anticipated

💚Akihiko ~~เป็นรอยยิ้มที่ชอบมาก 🤏🏻ดูดื้อ❣️ #given #ギヴン #ชุมชนนักวาด

I'm obsessed and need to see them kiss more #AkiHaru

A random #AkiHaru sketch. I'm trying my best to be less precious this year and post more sketches that I draw during my work breaks. I want to focus on drawing little scenes, varied expressions etc this year... #given #ギヴン

💛🌻haruki~~ 💝 #given #fanart #ギヴン

OK I know I've said this before, but I'll try to post here more ✊ I have lots of Given/AkiHaru art I've drawn since the last time I posted so hehehe stay tuned

I promise I’ll draw some ZoSan again soon, but right now my brain is overflowing with soft AkiHaru and I need them to be happy all the time ok 🍁🌸 #akiharu #given #kajiakihiko #nakayamaharuki

Fighting off the Sunday fear with them (they have invaded my brain and my heart) 🍁🌸 #akiharu #given #kajiakihiko #nakayamaharuki

The brain worms won the fight 🍁🌸 Domestic AkiHaru with sappy and devoted Akihiko is my drug and I am obsessed with them so I guess I’ll make my own food then 😎 (Akihiko’s endless thoughts of “I love him” is really just me projecting lmao) #akiharu #given #kajiakihiko #nakayamaharuki

AkiHaru surprise kiss...... yeah 😌 #akiharu #given #ギヴン #ギヴンFA

Haruki's smile ☀️🌸 #akiharu #秋春 #given #ギヴン #ギヴンFA

Akiharu long distance relationship: Good night 🍁🌸 #akiharu #ギヴン #given

Domestic long distance #AkiHaru 🍁🌸 I've got a series of cute domestic akiharu moments planned because I'm starved for them 🥹

if you know a lot of stuff i think it is your moral duty to be kind and excited when people learn stuff for the first time. the world is full of stuff we don't know about, don't be mean

Once again reminding people why machines can't translate creative Japanese well. j-entranslations.com/why-machine-...

This is the same for aspiring and even experienced translators. You cannot learn if you rely on AI. If you do not learn then you cannot improve. You will never get better at your craft nor even gain the skills to see when the machine is wrong.

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

I'm not holding out much hope, but I'm still hoping I can find some of the Cheri+ volumes with Given chapters that I'm missing when I'm in Japan 🥹 Gonna go through as many second-hand bookshops as I can.

Given 10th Chibi Mix #ギヴン #akiharu #ギヴンFA

Centimillimental in London wasn't on my bingo card for this year 🥹 I'm gonna hear Bokura Dake No Shudaika live!!

Haruki (noun) Handsome, gorgeous, cute, attractive, pretty, good-looking, classy, adorable, sexy, lovely, charming, angelic, stunning, dazzling, radiant see also: Akihiko's husband

Kaji Akihiko's love language? Yes. Words of affirmation ✅ Quality time ✅ Gift giving ✅ Physical touch ✅ Acts of service ✅ #given #akiharu #ギヴン

Ughhh trying to secure a ticket for the Given exhibition is stressing me out 😔 I contemplated asking some jpn acquaintances but they would google given and once they see it's a BL they'd be like "oh" and just be mega awkward about it

Gentle reminder to let that artist or writer know that you dug their work because, honestly, that shit can make their whole day brighter (especially now, when everything just feels like it's on fire all of the time).

Pretty, coloured Given pages in the old Cheri+ magazines 💕

I hate that one word from Shizusumi piqued my interest a bit too much, but I don't really want to jump into this very deep rabbit hole, because I don't care about Shizu (or Hiiragi) enough to spare my time for this... Yet it sort of nags at the back of my head as something that could be interesting.

I saw this meme and just had to do it for them 😌 #given

Part 1 🍁🌸 #akiharu #given #ギヴン

Akihiko simping hour - my favourite time of the day. #given

Akiharu bracelets my friend made me, and laser cut Given band merch (a necklace, earrings and a keyring) 🍁🌸🔥 #given #ギヴン #akiharu

GIVEN: memories 🎸 #ギヴン

🍁🌸 #akiharu #given (i've been super burnt out lately so here's something i drew a few weeks ago but never got around posting here)

The way Haru goes into 'inviting mode' is so subtle, yet Akihiko always recognizes that it's just about time to leave dishes for later 😌 #AkiHaru #Given #ギヴン

FEBRUARY 28TH 10AM PST!!!!!!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=zf7b...

I'm re-reading Kokoro by Souseki Natsume. It's obviously Given that inspired me to do this. I read this with my Japanese teacher a few years ago (I was considerably less motivated and enthusiastic about it back then), and I'm delighted to see how much better my reading has gotten since.

Happy birthday Mafuyu ❄️✨ #ギヴン #ギヴンFA #佐藤真冬誕生祭2025

I'm rly sorry to everyone I've ignored the last couple of weeks... I'm travelling back home on Friday and can then return to some normality. I love visiting my family + friends over here but it's always super exhausting and my social battery is running on fumes each day.

Akihiko 💖

Posted a new Akiharu drabble in AO3 cause i miss these two idiots archiveofourown.org/works/63319318

😭💕🍊🥳🍰 (enuff sed) #ギヴン #given #mafuyu

I've been on a holiday, meeting up with family and friends, and it's been just non-stop... But I got to show Given to one of my old friends, and she has since sent me song recommendations saying "akiharu vibes" 🍁🌸🔥

The last two weeks have been disgusting, but I'm now on holiday! 😩 Reading Given Memory&Memory on the train up to the airport 😌

I love the layers of storytelling in the Akiharu confession scene 🍁🌸. Ugetsu is a seasonal word in haiku that means the full moon can't be seen because of the rain (more specifically the harvest moon). A regret that the moon can't be seen. The full moon is visible here.

「死ぬまで一緒にいるんだから。」 Because we will be together 'til death. 🍁🌸 #akiharu
