1 - Em Lin - Inside out voices

JOY - Luffy (One Piece)

  • One of my favorite things in the world is traveling and exploring new places. I loved taking walks on my own on the streets of my hometown in China, because I never failed to see something new. One piece is a show about Luffy, a new and upcoming pirate who wants to sail across the world to find the legendary treasure, the One piece. I’ve watched One piece since I was a child, and Luffy has always been a character that I inspire to be. He, alongside his crew, always go on such grand amazing adventures. They go above the clouds, and into the deep sea, and I’ve wished since I was a child, that I could experience such an adventure alongside my friends. The joy in exploring and finding strange new places has been one that has always been instilled in me and it’s all been thanks to him.


SADNESS - Yuka (Blue Period) 

  • Yuka is typically confident in her skills and in herself in every aspect, but when she fell she fell hard. Her first reaction is to simply shut herself off from the world, from her parents, and in front of her friends, she could smiled just fine. When it hits a breaking point, she runs away, far away, and she knows it’s stupid and she knows she have to open that door again in the morning and she knows that she has to walk back to her own prison again with her own two feet. But just for that day, she was away, away from everything and anything in the middle of nowhere. Whenever I’m sad, I wish I could do the same.


FEAR - Ray (The promised neverland)

  • Ray is one of the smartest people in the show, The Promised Neverland, and he’s shown to be clever, witty, but also quite vulnerable. He fears not being in control of the situation, and tends to panic a little when he realizes he isn’t, but due to that fear, he’ll jump to rash decisions that tend to hurt himself in the progress. I think I also quite fear that lose of control in our lives. We always need every little detail so that we can decide on a course of action that will be the most beneficial to us, but sometimes we don’t know everything, and that scares me the most.


ANGER - Azula (Avatar the last airbender) 

  • I don’t think I get angry very often, and I don’t enjoy getting angry either, because I know I tend to say things I don’t mean and do things that I wish I could take back. Whenever we do get angry, I tend to become a little destructive, not physically like Azula does, but more mentally and towards ourselves. I rewatched Avatar recently, and Azula is still my favorite and most relatable character. Watching her slow descent from trying so hard to please her father to prove herself, until her final breakdown where all she could do was scream and cry, it was definitely the most impactful moment for me.


DISGUST - Tsukishima (Haikyuu)

  • I also don’t really feel disgust at all, maybe towards like people who think pineapple isn’t good on pizza. Tsukishima is quite talented but he doesn’t enjoy trying harder than he needs to, because he simply doesn’t think there’s a need to overexert himself. He sees the people around him, those who are more talented than himself, and assumes that since they are naturally better than him, there’s no reason for him to try harder, because he believes he will never become as good as them. I think I often also feel that same disgust for people who could try so hard at something. Maybe envy would be a better word, but I could never understand how someone could be so passionate about something. Actually I think jealous is a better word, I wish I could be so passionate about something, anything, really.
