tgreuniverse:
Just been asked this, decided to make a text post. I love seeing how we all freak out about what “I trust your message” must mean, but I’d like to also check out Ishida’s caption “OK牧場1” (lit. “OK pasture/farmland 1”) for those who might not get it. (If you don’t know what I’m talking about, it’s Ishida-Sensei’s latest artwork posted on his twitter.)
Explanation: Apparently, OK牧場 was made a “famous psychological term” by Guts Ishimatsu, a former boxing champion and current comedian/public figure. Stemming from his usage of the term on his blog, it’s just a colloquial term to describe one’s mental state. There are 4 numerical identifiers for different meanings of the term, respectively: ①We’re both OK ②I’m not OK but you are ③I’m OK but you’re not ④Neither of us are OK. Kinda like … a code, if you will. Ishida used ①, which means he’s reassuring fans “I’m ok, and you are too.”
See this article (JP, I mostly just summarized it all) for my source on the term.
