Anyways, new pinned post!
(1/?) So people will have ideas on what this account serves as, this is primarily my micro-blogging dumpsite for the following:
So, all 12 episodes of Skip and Loafer will be airing in YouTube starting on February 2, 2024, and any proceeds from the ads and monetization will be donated to help those affected in the 2024 Noto Earthquake in Ishikawa Prefecture.
I'm gonna be honest right now: Bocchi the Rock has probably one of the best animation among all shows airing right now.
It's eclipsing popular titles in terms of quality, honestly.
One of the best proposal scenes in anime history.
Frieren didn't know, but Himmel did certainly knew what the ring meant, and despite this, he never stopped loving her. Even then, until now.
The church bells ringing after seem to know, too.
In awe how Madhouse went above and beyond to get the Tatsuro Otake School of Dancing to choreograph Fern and Stark's dance in Frieren Episode 15. The referencing used here (and all in 2D!!!) making the dance smooth, how their steps slowly synced, their smiles... Chef's kiss.
I can't believe people are hating on the two-year age gap (I don't even think it's a full two YEARS 😂🤣) between Akane and Yamada when it's actually one of the least problematic age gap in the existence of shoujo manga LMAOOOOOOOOOO
The English dub of Frieren Episode 9 went viral in Japan recently due to the line "Because Himmel is rotting in the ground", and many viewers thought the line strongly referenced both Aura's technique of having rotten bodies as slaves and Himmel's death, making Frieren angry.
日本では超有名なミームになってる『ヒンメルはもういないじゃない』、英語吹き替えだと "Because Himmel is rotten in the ground." っていうえっぐい訳になっており、フリーレンを静かに激昂させるに至ったのがよりわかりやすい直裁的な表現になってると同時に非常にいい意訳であると思った
Anyways just to let everyone know that Benedict Blue and Cattleya Baudelaire from Violet Evergarden are canonically lovers and are actually into kinky sex so yeah such a shame KyoAni forgot to animate that :/
Apparently the reason why Himmel's favorite food is the l'oeuf omelette (very very large omelettes made of ten eggs) is because it can be easily shared with four people. Himmel also likes to order dishes he could share with Frieren, Heiter and Eisen. 🥲
i am literally only capable of enjoying a straight pairing if the dude is like so horrendously pathetically in love with the girl like without her he'd just like moan and die
Would be nice if someone in the Akatsuki no Yona committee committee think about "Oh, what if we make another Yona anime season" and see the whole project *sell*
(Yona has now achieved 40 volumes, millions of copies in circulation and nope, no second season in sight)
Arnold Hein: *is described as someone who hates being touched by/touching strangers*
Also Arnold Hein when it comes to a certain Rishe Irmgard Weitzner:
Manga illustrator Tsukasa Abe's art vs anime character designer Reiko Nagasawa's art for Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Mage Exam Arc.
Both look really damn cool.
Tsukiho Tsukioka's art for the My Happy Marriage light novel is still one of a kind, despite the fact that the manga art by Rito Kohsaka and the anime character designs by Shoko Yasuda are the more well-known illustrations. I mean, their art is simply beautiful.
ARNOLD LOOKING AT RISHE AS SHE SLEPT OH MY GOODNESS THE YEARNING IN HIS EYES
LIKE IN THE RIGHT ONE, IT'S MORE OF SURPRISE WITH HER BUT WITH HIM IT'S THE YEARNING AGAJDMSHDBFNSNSJFHDJSNNJK
Ashihara-sensei's situation is a reason why I always think that adaptations of published works should always be done in consultation with the original creator. Especially with works which are demographically female-targeted.
Sexy Tanaka-san's mangaka Ashihara Hinako had passed away at the age of 50.
She had been missing since January 28 and was found dead in Tochigi Prefecture on January 29.
On the 26th, she posted on her twitter about the trouble she had with the production team of the drama…
7tth Time Loop's Volume 5-6 has me in shambles as Rishe asking Arnold to kiss her as her birthday gift to help her deal with her own dislike of her own birthday and Arnold lovingly complying repeatedly is making me go GRRRRRRRRR
Another thing the Apothecary Diaries anime is good at is its use of flower imagery and flower language: the wood sorrel (Maomao) here surrounded by a lovely arrangement of white magnolias (Pairin), pink chrysanthemums (Joka) and yellow-pink plum blossoms (Meimei)
Apparently the reason why Himmel's favorite food is the l'oeuf omelette (very very large omelettes made of ten eggs) is because it can be easily shared with four people. Himmel also likes to order dishes he could share with Frieren, Heiter and Eisen. 🥲
Interesting reference from the Apothecary Diaries: Maomao's garments were made of hemp (the common people's material for clothing) during her time of service as Gyokuyou's lady-in-waiting, and her having regular cotton clothes means Jinshi's willing to spend money on her, really
A female character can be physically strong without comprimising her femininity. A physically strong female character can still be strong even with a love interest.
The Apothecary Diaries has gorgeous camera and perspective work. I know more people like the BG manga's portrayal of things but I like as equally this fluid presentation, showing Maomao's status with Jinshi by equalling their POVs using the chairs, and their wonderful banter
The main reason why I like My Happy Marriage so much is that it's about her becoming "human" again after getting her own agency in life with him, despite the circumstances behind it, while he becomes "human" again by rethinking his privilege and treating other people through her
Yeah, it's rather insane since in the light novel they were supposed to be shaking hands but instead the uber based director (bless him) made them hold hands into the title drop instead
AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MIYO AND KIYOKA IN TANABATA OUTFITS! Miyo as Orihime and Kiyoka as Hikoboshi! And THE RED STRING OF FATE TYING THEIR PINKIES TOGETHER IN A PROMISE OwO #わた婚アニメ
Others: *loves to see their favorite fictional couples kiss, hug, or hold hands*
Me: *loves to see how the other half helps the other to sleep as the latter don't sleep too much and are very much well-guarded against the world but they trust the other to keep them safe*
If I have a dollar for every "long-haired-sunshine girl with nerves of steel x darkness-incarnate boy with neck scar and dark past" fictional couple I'm rooting for, I'd have two dollars because of them:
Milet, Evan Call and the Frieren staff certainly knew what they were doing with the new Anytime, Anywhere AMV when they posted this very scene the moment the lyrics said, "This pain is proof of the time I spent with you"
If a story has enough pining and yearning to light a forest fire it’s an automatic 5 star read for me. I’m here for pathetic longing. For angsty internal suffering. For the absolute torment that is catching feelings. Such fun.
The staff for Frieren Ep 12 is so damn mean since here the day is so bright yet as the Hero Party walked away from Frieren, Heiter, Eisen and especially Himmel were dimmed with shadows while they're smiling happily, while Frieren is in the light but unable to smile, left alone
So because people keep asking if the Who Made Me a Princess donghua is real and is it confirmed, yes, it is, yes it is said to be IN PRODUCTION by Kuaikan World (Beijing) Technology.
I LOVE the rough drafts for Frieren, Fern, Stark, Sein and even Himmel and Heiter 😍
I do see the differences between their initial designs and their current ones, which is nice to see
The project was made in dedication to Skip and Loafer's protagonist, Mitsumi Iwakura, as she is a native of Ishikawa Prefecture 😊
The QRT has the YouTube link, and is a Japan-only link but feel free to watch using a VPN (I think it will work) and add to the view count!
They're really the power couple, look at their birthday images from the official illustrator, it's as if they're accompanying each other, his hand reaching out for hers, a single rose from his bouquet now on her hand... #シンレナ #エイティシックス
Actually this is about shoujo manga/webtoons having animated adaptations and guess what Who Made Me a Princess is apparently on the list for donghua, details TBA. ()
