// Since Cordelia is a hot topic these days, I decided answering to the “Why do many people love Yui and the triplets when they act just like Cordelia sometimes?” question.

First and foremost, we know that the person most similar to Cordelia is Yui. Just like Cordelia, Yui would go to great lengths for the man she loves, even if it meant hurting him or others in the process. She has already shown this in the endings where her obsession got the worst of her, making it clear that she shares Cordelia’s intensity. This is precisely why Yui didn’t want Cordelia to die again—she saw herself in her. She understood Cordelia’s overwhelming feelings for someone and believed they could reach a mutual understanding.

At first, Cordelia might appear redeemed, especially as she grows warmer towards Yui. However, the truth is that she actually never changed. She remained unrepentant for her abusive behavior, even if she told Yui she was fully aware of what she did.

There are two particular moments that serve as a parallel:

Of course, this doesn’t mean people can’t like Cordelia. Her fans shouldn’t be judged only because they like her, since all characters are crazy in this franchise. I also enjoy seeing Cordelia content because I find her a fascinating and stunning character!

At the same time, I completely get why some fans can’t stand her. After all, nobody is perfect, and people tend to gravitate towards characters who show growth, given that it reflects their own real-life experiences. If a character keeps being unapologetic despite the chance to fix this, it’s natural that many people won’t find them appealing.

this turned out WAY better than I expected...

I was just messing around on ibispaint trying to merely draw a basic outline of a face, using the mirror feature to make things symmetrical, and then it turns to this!

I've always wanted to draw like those artists that draw the DL characters in the soft style of the games, but now I might be able to do it myself!

(sorry if looks like she's staring into your soul, I don't know how to draw eyes properly yet 😳)

i will not allow reiji slander tho

The diabolik lovers fandom knows how to piss me the fuck off and it's exactly how I know you hoes are the same weirdos from back when the fandom was unbelievably toxic and just never died, living in the shadows like a god damn cockroach after a nuclear fucking explosion

This fandom is a prison

This…like I thought we left all of this back in 2017??

// When you sacrifice yourself for Yui and nearly get killed, but still manage to look straight-up gorgeous, because you’re Ayato Sakamaki after all, so your face card is more lethal than any injury! 🙂‍↕️

ANALYZING THE SAKAMAKIS FLOWERS

Ok, so after translating the cards for the Sakamakis perfume merch drop, I started researching what each of flowers that the Sakamkis were given meant.

𝙰𝚈𝙰𝚃𝙾

" 𝙰𝚜 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚐𝚊𝚣𝚎 𝚞𝚙𝚘𝚗 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚋𝚎𝚊𝚞𝚝𝚒𝚏𝚞𝚕𝚕𝚢 𝚜𝚠𝚊𝚢𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚕𝚘𝚝𝚞𝚜 𝚏𝚕𝚘𝚠𝚎𝚛𝚜 𝚒𝚗 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚘𝚏𝚝 𝚜𝚞𝚗𝚕𝚒𝚐𝚑𝚝, 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚊𝚛𝚎 𝚜𝚞𝚍𝚍𝚎𝚗𝚕𝚢 𝚐𝚛𝚎𝚎𝚝𝚎𝚍 𝚠𝚒𝚝𝚑 𝚊 𝚜𝚖𝚒𝚕𝚎 𝚕𝚒𝚔𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚠𝚎𝚎𝚝 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚜𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝚏𝚛𝚞𝚒𝚝 𝚘𝚏 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚏𝚕𝚘𝚠𝚎𝚛. 𝙰𝚢𝚊𝚝𝚘, 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚊𝚛𝚛𝚘𝚐𝚊𝚗𝚝 𝚖𝚊𝚗, 𝚖𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚑𝚒𝚎𝚟𝚘𝚞𝚜𝚕𝚢 𝚒𝚗𝚟𝚒𝚝𝚎𝚜 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚠𝚒𝚝𝚑 𝚊 𝚏𝚛𝚞𝚒𝚝𝚢 𝚏𝚕𝚘𝚛𝚊𝚕 𝚗𝚘𝚝𝚎. "

So Ayatos flower is a Lotus, Lotus flowers are often represented as strength, resilience and rebirth since they bloom out from murky waters without stains. Lotus flowers also are known to represent purity.

Ayato is known as being the most human or friendly of the Sakamakis, even his character profile will say this. Despite Ayatos harsh and abusive childhood he remains strongwilled and resilant to become number 1, although he struggles with his own capablities and the feeling that we can't be enough. This part if character is better explored through his Lost Eden Route and Dark Fate. While all the DL boys have issues Ayato learns to change himself for the better and is one of the few boys that really attempts to change himself and look at his own flaws and apologize for his actions, even trying to break away from habits from his mother. Many of his routes will show this. Ayato has also been deemed as " pure " by characters, specifically Laito, who always states how he's envious of Ayatos Purity to remain true to himself and what he wants despite they're upbringing. This is also proven with his character by Karlheinz in Ayatos Dark Fate Ecstasy Epilouge ( we also won't talk about how Lotus Flowers are aquatic and what Ayatos history with water is 👀)

KarlHeinz: Aah…Such sentimental words. Exactly…Perfect…Value life, and mourn for it…Lament misfortune, experiencing great suffering…Then rebel! That is what makes one Adam!

Kanato's flower is Witch Hazel, Witch Hazel is a flower that got it's name from from the pratice " Water Witching " where you take a forked branch and used it to find underground water. Witch Hazel is associated with Protection and Healing, with folk tales saying that Witch hazel can cure broken hearts.

First off the whole idea that Witch Hazel is used to find underground water is ironic, and I'm not sure it's entirely intentional. But we know that the triplets were punished by Cordelia by throwing them into the Underground sewers and leaving them there ( Kanto vs Subaru CD goes into more depth on this ) out of the three Kanato seems to be the most affected by these punishments ( although they all are ) Kantoo uses his " Teddy" as a type of coping mechanism almost to have some piece of his mother with him as he keeps her ashes in the bear and it's the only way he can sleep and be comforted. This is some form of healing himself and his feelings from the death and abuse of his mother that he can't let go even after her death and it may be come way of protecting himself from any more emotional pain or acknowledgment of it.

Laitos given flower are Tulips. Tulips represent Love, Rebirth and New beginning, however each color of Tulip represent something different.

OH MY GOD This one was the whole reason I wanted to do this in the first place because there is so much to unpack here. First of all we're using this chart to decifer the flowers

So from what I can see Laito is holding 3 yellow tulips,2 pink, 1 orange, 2 Variegated and 1 purple and 1 green.

The majority color in his bouquet is yellow. Yellow usualy symbolzies joy or haplines but historically yellow tulips symbolize hopeless love and no chance of reconciliation, jealousy or unrequited love. Laito is known to hold grudges against people especially if he's been burned by them and we see that besides was Laito kay say himself he is a very jealous person, we can see this through his flashbacks of killing his mothers suitors out of jealousy. He can not understand the concept of love as it's intangible to him if it is something he can not pshycially feel or see because of his trauma from his mother's words. And yellow also symbolizes " there is sunshine in my smile " Laito plays the airhead pervert part to a tea and really drills the happy smile face for everyone despite his real feeling. Having yellow be the majority color is a good representation of how Lairo trys to portray himself although there are other emotions and other flowers in the bouquet.

His other 2 flower combinations of Orange and Variegated are flowers with very shallow meanings such as " i am fascinated by you" and " you have beautiful eyes ". These flowers are the second most prominent in his bouquet once again feeling into the shallow pervert facade, a happy smile with some empty compliments and pretty colors to make the person feel good. We also have pink Tulips which mean " My perfect lover " or in general affection and love. Pink Tulips are affectionate menaing flowers however combined with this bouquet of empty compliments and the hopeless love the pink also falls into the category of false words of love and adirmation for Laito.

Now Laito only have 1 purple flower " Eternal Love " however it also represents elegance and mystery, the single purple flower of Laitos revealing his sneaky and cunning nature, hiding between the pink and yellow bright colors of false words and shallow compliments, Laito is a very mysterious character for the fact that he strategically only shares what he wants somone to know and perfectly plays his facade for everyone without letting anyone get the upper hand on him or his emotions. There is also 1 green Tulip peeking out from the bottom. Green Tulips represent rebirth and new life. Laito repeatedly chooses to not confront any of his trauma or emotions as he doesn't want to deal with them, so to combat that he simply chooses to create a new life, a new facade to hide and push away any of his trauam. This coping mechanism is repeated in games like Chaos Lineage, Lost Eden. Or in Drama CDs such as his Daylight CD. Where Laito will completely try to erase or forget something to start new, and have a new beginning even if it's not real.

If you look closely you can see a small, not yet bloomed tulip under the purple flower. Which looks like a unblocked white Tulip which represents purity, sincierty and forgiveness. Laito hates and envies anything he seems " pure " such as Ayato or Yui because he can never be that way because of his mother. The Versus CD of Ayato and Laito goes into this topic of Laito deeming himself not " pure " because he is unable to be honest or sincere with himself and others and that he can't be changed. The white Tulips is hidden and unbloomed but still hiding in the bouquet somewhere. You'll also notice that Laito misses one color from his arrangement. Red, symbolizing undying love and trust.

So, for some reason Shuus is the only one that doesn't name a specific flower, which doesn't help me at all 😒 but honestly he looks like he's holding Cherry Blossoms so we'll roll with that. However one thing to mention is that Shuu and Reiji both contain Jasmine which Jamsine represents love and sensuality, although Shuus seems to combine the sweet fragrance of Jasmine with a musky wood while Reiji adds on to the sweetness with Vanilla which I found to be a interesting connection that Reiji and Shuu and simiar and also contrast ecah other at the same time. ( My Sun and Moon duo! )

Cherry Blossoms are flowers that only bloom for a couple of weeks before falling, so they represent the fleeting nature of life, cherry blossoms also come with the arrival of spring, so they are a symbol of new beginnings and renewel.

Many of Shuus interactions with the MC leave him reflecting the nature of human life and how fleeting it is, and because of the death of Edgar Shuu avoid any relationships because of the fear that it won't last or will be taken away. Shuu resents being a vampire and blames himself for ruining anything good that happens to him. However though he tries to avoid any meaningful connections it's something that he has always craved for and wished for a new beginning away from his life through music or eventually through the people in his life.

( Shuu MB Maservant ending ) Reiji: Shuu, there has always been an unsighty desire lurking inside of you. Love…is nothing something a person like yourself is worthy of.

( Shuu MB Maniac Prolouge) Shuu: "Are you an idiot? …Vampires don’t catch colds.…Don’t group us together with humans.We’re different, everything about us……Truly, everything…"

Shuu: "Hah? Something bad? That’s right. The fact that I’m living in this world. That by itself pisses me off. Why not leave this city…and go somewhere far away? I won’t protect you. My pride as a Vampire of this household…Vanished a long time ago after all."

Reiji has blue Daises which represent loyalty, long term commitments, peace / tranquility , and uniqueness.

The comment of long term commitments and loyalty reminds me of Reijis connections to his father. Reiji is the only Sakamaki brother with any respect for his father, this may come from more of a obsession with gaining his father's acknowledgement and approval since that is what Reiji ultimately always craves for however Reiji has shown that he is extremely committed to his pride as a vampire and a Sakamaki as well as pleasing his father as well as holding incredibly high standards for himself and others. Beyond that Reiji is known for being unusual even by vampire standards as he chooses to not indulge in his own desires and allow himself to not be in control of something, as unique as a blue daisy. Not sure about how much peace and tranquility Reiji is getting in the Sakamaki household however his hobbies definitely are in the efforts of comfort and simplie peace.

Subaru has Lupine which represents strength, the potential for transformation and growth and renewal. Meaning can also vary by what color a Lupin is.

Subaru has many analogy when it comes to flowers often with his association with white roses and the Queen of the Night flower. Subaru has yellow lupine which symbolize warmth and optism and general happiness, they are also suee as a way to celebrate a milestone or to be a token of appreciation. I definitely see flower messages to be a way that Subaru conveys his feelings as he ( and pretty much all the Sakamakis ) are bad at communicating their feelings. In fact this is Canon his Subarus HDB endings and his Paraselem CD. Subaru is kind, we know this from his mother telling him to remain a kind boy so he has obviously had this to him since he was a child. He also even gets compared to Yui by Shuu by the way they act. Subaru is also known as the " Tsundere " of the group that although Subaru is in fact kind it's hard to tell through his words, so seeing Yellow Lupins be displayed in his bouquet is a good way to express those soft feelings.

( Subaru HDB Dark 10) Reiji: Hooh, this is new. For Subaru to take on this kind of attitude…

Shuu: …They’re surprisingly similar.

( Subaru DF Manservant ending )

Karlheinz: Aah…What a tragedy.You, who failed to become Adam. That kind heart of yours, is only a sign of your naivity.

( Subaru MB Maniac epilouge)

Butler: With all due respect, Master. But Subaru-sama used to be a very kind soul…

Karlheinz: No need to cover up for him…I am aware.

This theme of very sentimental feeling in Subarus bouquet is reocurring, Subaru also has red Lupins which mean love, courage, strength or admiration. This is also followed up with the purple lupines he has which also symbolize admiration and respect along with purple being used to symbolize royalty. Obviously Subaru is a strong character as he's normally the one to get into fights however his reliance can also be applied with him still remaining a " kind boy " even through his rough exterior and harsh childhood. As well as even though Subaru is the youngest in the family he actually tends to make more wiser decisions than some of his brother * COUGH * The Triplets * COUGH * And through his bark and yells he always ends up helping out in some way. A gift like flowers with meanings is a perfect way for somone as awkward and easily emabrssrd as Subaru to convey his emotions.

And that's all!! This is my first analysis so sorry if it's not the most in depth or accurate 😅I just wanted to make this because flower meanings are so interesting to me and this was definitely one of my favorite merchandise lines that Rejet has released. Feel free to share your own opinions on the boys flowers and meanings I love hearing people thoughts byee~

OMG IM OBSSESED!!!! AHHH I love flowers and grew up gardening all the time and absolutely love flower language so you got this all down to a T!! I would like to add that Shuu’s flowers are actually orchids!!

Specifically the “Phalaenopsis” orchids—better known as the “moth orchids.”

In Japan, orchids usually symbolize purity, elegance and are natural symbols pertaining to royalty, wealth and power.

For Phalaenopsis orchids—their colours & meanings usually vary;

Omg thank you for this!! I could not figure out what his real flower was 😭 IDK why he's literally the only one where Rejet was just like " nahhh were not gonna say it "

Omg no prob!! Luckily I was able to notice it lol considering orchids are one of my all time favourite flowers it wasn’t too difficult!! But I can tell where you may have thought cherry blossoms from the stem design and its petaling. Best part about flora, in my opinion, is how diverse each gene variation is and how mutations come across for select classes of plants!!

OH MY GOD A BOTANICAL DIALOVERS MERCH RELEASE

OK SO I WILL BE MAKING A VIDEO ON ANALYZING ALL THE FLOWERS OF ALL THE BOYS

I LOVE FLORIOGRAPHY

AHHHHHHHHHHH

As a resident gardener and flower language enthusiast I WILL be waiting very very patiently and perhaps add my own analysis on it (also hi I love u and ur analysis on Laito ur fr my Roman Empire for YEARS <33)

HEHEHE OFC FEEL FREE TO ADD ABD OR MAKE YOUR OWN!!!! (Please tag me in it tho I gotta read that)

Also being called someone’s Roman Empire is INSANE THANK YOU OMFG?!?! WHAT A HUGE COMPLIMENT WHAT THE FUCK?!?! Thank you so much for liking my content hehehe 🥰🥰🥰

I gotta incorporate my horticulture degree into this blog SOMEHOW

But omg feel free to dm me or reblog plants you have ?!?! If you want to?!?!!!

Oh oh I also did a floriography section on my art account @clemonthyne >:) it’s old but teehee they’re goldies

Actually kicking my feet omg 😭😭 Honestly having been in the fandom for *checks my watch* ALMOST LIKE A DECADE?? (Blame unrestricted internet access 💔) your blog was one I’ve always enjoyed, especially on my older accounts that I’ve forgotten the name & pass to 😭. You’re literally the reason I started to enjoy Laito more as a potential top 5 placer, especially with the analysis (I adoreeee psychology and am going to uni for it next autumn!!).

Always have to appreciate the hard workers in the fandom!! Laito is SUCH a complex character—for good reason too—and whenever I find myself needing a bit more insight on writing him, etc—I find myself going back to your page!!

In terms of my flowers sadly they’ve been killed by my country’s harsh winters—but I’m looking to restart when proper spring/summer hits!! I grew up gardening with my grandmother and have loveddd taking care of plants and trees (at her house I tend to a nice apple tree and sometimes volunteer at an apple orchard lol). ALSO YES your degree literally sounds like a dream 🫶🫶

Anyway to make my rambling complete; ILY AND I HOPE UR DOING WELL!!

ANALYZING THE SAKAMAKIS FLOWERS

Ok, so after translating the cards for the Sakamakis perfume merch drop, I started researching what each of flowers that the Sakamkis were given meant.

So, for some reason Shuus is the only one that doesn't name a specific flower, which doesn't help me at all 😒 but honestly he looks like he's holding Cherry Blossoms so we'll roll with that. However one thing to mention is that Shuu and Reiji both contain Jasmine which Jamsine represents love and sensuality, although Shuus seems to combine the sweet fragrance of Jasmine with a musky wood while Reiji adds on to the sweetness with Vanilla which I found to be a interesting connection that Reiji and Shuu and simiar and also contrast ecah other at the same time. ( My Sun and Moon duo! )

Cherry Blossoms are flowers that only bloom for a couple of weeks before falling, so they represent the fleeting nature of life, cherry blossoms also come with the arrival of spring, so they are a symbol of new beginnings and renewel.

Many of Shuus interactions with the MC leave him reflecting the nature of human life and how fleeting it is, and because of the death of Edgar Shuu avoid any relationships because of the fear that it won't last or will be taken away. Shuu resents being a vampire and blames himself for ruining anything good that happens to him. However though he tries to avoid any meaningful connections it's something that he has always craved for and wished for a new beginning away from his life through music or eventually through the people in his life.

( Shuu MB Maservant ending ) Reiji: Shuu, there has always been an unsighty desire lurking inside of you. Love…is nothing something a person like yourself is worthy of.

( Shuu MB Maniac Prolouge) Shuu: "Are you an idiot? …Vampires don’t catch colds.…Don’t group us together with humans.We’re different, everything about us……Truly, everything…"

Shuu: "Hah? Something bad? That’s right. The fact that I’m living in this world. That by itself pisses me off. Why not leave this city…and go somewhere far away? I won’t protect you. My pride as a Vampire of this household…Vanished a long time ago after all."

Reiji has blue Daises which represent loyalty, long term commitments, peace / tranquility , and uniqueness.

The comment of long term commitments and loyalty reminds me of Reijis connections to his father. Reiji is the only Sakamaki brother with any respect for his father, this may come from more of a obsession with gaining his father's acknowledgement and approval since that is what Reiji ultimately always craves for however Reiji has shown that he is extremely committed to his pride as a vampire and a Sakamaki as well as pleasing his father as well as holding incredibly high standards for himself and others. Beyond that Reiji is known for being unusual even by vampire standards as he chooses to not indulge in his own desires and allow himself to not be in control of something, as unique as a blue daisy. Not sure about how much peace and tranquility Reiji is getting in the Sakamaki household however his hobbies definitely are in the efforts of comfort and simplie peace.

Subaru has Lupine which represents strength, the potential for transformation and growth and renewal. Meaning can also vary by what color a Lupin is.

Subaru has many analogy when it comes to flowers often with his association with white roses and the Queen of the Night flower. Subaru has yellow lupine which symbolize warmth and optism and general happiness, they are also suee as a way to celebrate a milestone or to be a token of appreciation. I definitely see flower messages to be a way that Subaru conveys his feelings as he ( and pretty much all the Sakamakis ) are bad at communicating their feelings. In fact this is Canon his Subarus HDB endings and his Paraselem CD. Subaru is kind, we know this from his mother telling him to remain a kind boy so he has obviously had this to him since he was a child. He also even gets compared to Yui by Shuu by the way they act. Subaru is also known as the " Tsundere " of the group that although Subaru is in fact kind it's hard to tell through his words, so seeing Yellow Lupins be displayed in his bouquet is a good way to express those soft feelings.

( Subaru HDB Dark 10) Reiji: Hooh, this is new. For Subaru to take on this kind of attitude…

Shuu: …They’re surprisingly similar.

( Subaru DF Manservant ending )

Karlheinz: Aah…What a tragedy.You, who failed to become Adam. That kind heart of yours, is only a sign of your naivity.

( Subaru MB Maniac epilouge)

Butler: With all due respect, Master. But Subaru-sama used to be a very kind soul…

Karlheinz: No need to cover up for him…I am aware.

This theme of very sentimental feeling in Subarus bouquet is reocurring, Subaru also has red Lupins which mean love, courage, strength or admiration. This is also followed up with the purple lupines he has which also symbolize admiration and respect along with purple being used to symbolize royalty. Obviously Subaru is a strong character as he's normally the one to get into fights however his reliance can also be applied with him still remaining a " kind boy " even through his rough exterior and harsh childhood. As well as even though Subaru is the youngest in the family he actually tends to make more wiser decisions than some of his brother * COUGH * The Triplets * COUGH * And through his bark and yells he always ends up helping out in some way. A gift like flowers with meanings is a perfect way for somone as awkward and easily emabrssrd as Subaru to convey his emotions.

And that's all!! This is my first analysis so sorry if it's not the most in depth or accurate 😅I just wanted to make this because flower meanings are so interesting to me and this was definitely one of my favorite merchandise lines that Rejet has released. Feel free to share your own opinions on the boys flowers and meanings I love hearing people thoughts byee~

OMG IM OBSSESED!!!! AHHH I love flowers and grew up gardening all the time and absolutely love flower language so you got this all down to a T!! I would like to add that Shuu’s flowers are actually orchids!!

Specifically the “Phalaenopsis” orchids—better known as the “moth orchids.”

In Japan, orchids usually symbolize purity, elegance and are natural symbols pertaining to royalty, wealth and power.

For Phalaenopsis orchids—their colours & meanings usually vary;

OH MY GOD A BOTANICAL DIALOVERS MERCH RELEASE
