🗣️ THE INTERNET HAS OPINIONS (LOTS OF THEM)
EVERYONE is talking about the Saviors.
I've been monitoring forums, social media, comment sections, and even three separate fan wikis since the attack. And honestly? It's FASCINATING.
People are saying the most incredible things. Some are heartwarming. Some are infuriating. And some are just... unhinged.
Here's what I've gathered from the depths of the internet. (I have screenshots. I'm not kidding.)
❤️ THE POSITIVE REACTIONS
💖 THE FANS
"They're literally teenagers fighting monsters while the FPU does nothing. Protect them at all costs."
"I don't care if they're Eclipse-touched. They saved lives. THEY SAVED MY FAMILY."
"The girl who phases through walls is my new obsession. Does she have social media???"
"I was there. I saw the ghost boy. I don't know how to explain it but I felt safe. Like he was protecting everyone. I'm not crying you're crying."
"The Saviors are the best thing to happen to this city in years. They give me hope."
💢 THE NEGATIVE REACTIONS
😤 THE HATERS
"Eclipse-touched freaks playing hero. Give me a break."
"They probably caused the attack in the first place. Attention seekers."
"Why didn't the FPU arrest them? They're unregistered vigilantes."
"Seven Eclipse-touched kids 'randomly' end up in the same class and 'randomly' stop a terrorist attack? PLEASE. This is staged."
🤡 THE UNHINGED
🌀 THE CONSPIRACY BRAIN
"I've identified all seven Saviors based on blurry photos. Thread below (58 pages)."
"The Saviors are actually GOVERNMENT EXPERIMENTS. The terrorist attack was a cover to test them in the field. WAKE UP."
"Okay but what if THEY'RE THE TERRORISTS? What if they just wanted to look like heroes? What if this is all part of a bigger plan?"
"The ghost boy is HOT. I said what I said."
"I have a theory that the Saviors are actually REINCARNATIONS OF ANCIENT WARRIORS and the Eclipse Deity is trying to stop them from fulfilling their destiny."
🥵 THE THIRST
🔥 DOWN BAD
"The girl who phases through walls can phase through anything if you know what I mean 😏"
"Akira with that bedhead and those eye bags and that constant exhaustion... I can fix him."
"Ikari's muscles... I AM LOOKING RESPECTFULLY."
"Saiko with the hands in her pockets during a fight is the most ICONIC thing I've ever seen. I want her to step on me. I'm not sorry."
"The rockstar girl (Akane???) with the guitar and the roller skates? MARRY ME."
🥹 THE WHOLESOME
💕 THE CUTE STUFF
"My little sister drew a picture of the Saviors. She put sparkles on everyone."
"The way Obake's ghosts protect him?? I'M SOBBING."
"Ikari and Saiko are clearly best friends and I would DIE for them."
"Yori is so sweet and confused and I want to protect her with my entire being."
⭐ THE SAVIORS RESPOND
💬 WHAT THEY SAID (VIA COMMENT SECTIONS)
"oh my god you actually wrote an entire article about us. this is so weird. hi kiwanu or whatever your name is."
"i don't understand most of your site. but i like it. you're kind. thank you."
"I'm not sweet. Go to sleep."
"the ghosts are gossiping about you. they say you need to eat breakfast more often."
"You got some things right. You got some things wrong. I'm not 'guilty' about the bullying. I'm responsible. There's a difference."
"kiwamuuuuuu i love your site!!! i love the comic sans!!! i love you!!! (not in a weird way mostly)"
📱 FAN ACCOUNTS I'VE FOUND
🧠 Kiwamu's Final Thoughts
The internet is unhinged and I love it.
Yes, there are haters. Yes, there are conspiracy theorists. Yes, there are people who are WAY too thirsty. But there are also people who genuinely care.
The Saviors saved this city. And the public knows it.
Even the haters can't deny that they did something extraordinary.
I'm going to keep documenting the discourse. (And maybe start a collection of the best fan art.)

P.S. The fan fiction is REALLY bad. Please stop sending me links.

OMG I'M IN THIS ARTICLE. "The ghost boy is HOT." I stand by what I said. OBAAAAAAKE <3

The thirst is REAL. I've seen the fan accounts. Some of them are... a lot. But I'm glad people are supporting the Saviors overall.

YOU'RE ALL BEING MANIPULATED. The Saviors are PROJECTS. The thirst is PART OF THE PLAN. WAKE UP SHEEPLE.

"The fan fiction is REALLY bad. Please stop sending me links." — Kiwamu, you're a national treasure. I'm going to find the worst fan fic and send it to you anyway.

Okay but the Saviors being reincarnated ancient warriors? I STAND BY THIS THEORY. It explains EVERYTHING.
KokomoStudent • November 7, 2037 • 3:00 PM
I'm at Kokomo and I can confirm: the Saviors are aware of the thirst. Saiko literally laughed when someone showed her a fan edit. She said "this is so weird but I love it."
RamenTheCat • November 7, 2037 • 4:00 PM
ikari saw the "Ikari_Muscle_Appreciation" account and she just stared at the screen for like 5 minutes. then she said "I need to work out more." i don't know if that's good or bad. meow.

The thirst is distracting. People are focusing on the wrong things.
The Saviors are important because they STOPPED A TERRORIST ATTACK.
Not because they're "hot."

OKAY BUT THE FAN EDITS ARE GENUINELY GOOD. I've seen some of them. The art? FIRE. The edits? FIRE.
The fan fiction though...
I HAVE QUESTIONS.

@Saiko_Sasaki_Official — You're telling me YOU'VE READ THE FAN FICTION?
I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.
(Also, I'm glad you like the fan art. Some of it is really good.)

I am going to find whoever runs the Ikari_Muscle_Appreciation account and I am going to have WORDS with them.
(Also I work out at 5 AM. If you want to see muscles, come to the gym.)
I need to go punch something now.

OKAY BUT THE THIRST IS VALID.
Have you SEEN Akane with her guitar???
I'm not saying I'm down bad I'm just saying I UNDERSTAND.
Also the fan art is really good can I commission someone to draw me with a dog filter
BYE <3

@GhostBoy_Official — The ghosts are READING the fan accounts? That's amazing and also terrifying.
@Mayako_Drunk — I will find you an artist. Please drink water.
This comment section is CHAOS and I love it.

i don't know how to be a wife.
i don't even know how to use a crosswalk properly.

Kiwamu (Author) • November 7, 2037 • 8:15 PM
@Yori_Kokomo — Yori. You're doing great. The crosswalk thing is overrated. I believe in you.
(Also, "wife material" is just internet slang for "you're very nice and people like you.")

I'm not going to lie. The attention is WEIRD.
I'm just a girl who plays guitar and works at a coffee shop.
But also... I appreciate the support. Even the weird stuff. (Except the weird fan fiction. I have BOUNDARIES.)
Thanks for being cool, Kiwamu.

@Akane_Guitar — "I'm just a girl who plays guitar and works at a coffee shop" — Akane, you literally fought a terrorist. You're not JUST anything.
Also, I'm glad you appreciate my coverage. That means a lot.
