Totally!! Like it's easy to hold up the big splash panels as some of the greatest in manga, since they're so detailed and pretty, but 80% of the time there are little panels where not much is going on, and simple actions become amazing to look at~ But the splash panels are a joy to look at too XD

#Zelda #Ocarinaoftime #Art Drew Dead Hand, from Ocarina of Time! Dude is straight out of Silent Hill...

Ever feel that Dead Hand sorta looks like orphan of Kos? I guess it should be the other way around, Orphan looks like Dead Hand. Anyway, that is how I feel.

Reupload of some 2023 #Zelda #OcarinaofTime #art, drew a dude from the House of Skulltula! Proportions are wonky, oh well ^^

Half-dude, half-Spider, all creepy & crawly. A guy from Ocarina of Time is turning into a Spider, and here he is. #Horrorart

"Hey Iguazu, do you read me? Blame this on the misfortune of your birth!" #ArmoredCore X #MobileSuitGundam #art #Mechs

An armored core gets sliced in the back, his arm going flying, as the offending pilot boasts about his betrayal. Megastructures dot the sky. All in reference to Mobile Suit Gundam, where Char says this exact line to an ally, before betraying them.

4 movies I've seen for the first time this year, that "speak" to me. The Trial, Belladonna of Sadness, The Day After, and The Pied Piper. I've only got yall to thank for letting me know me these movies exist, there's so many incredible artistic films out there! #Filmsky

The Trial, a film by Orson Welles, is absurdism at its finest. A beautifully nihilistic exploration of the "justice system," at its most incongruent and inscrutable. Basically, what Ikiru did in its opening moments, for the maddening bureaucracy of Japanese civil works, The Trial spreads out over 2 hours.

Belladonna of Sadness is one of the strangest movies I've ever seen. It tells a relatively simple story about a woman falling pray to Satans charms after experiencing traumas beyond human comprehension. Equal parts minimalist, and maximalist. It defies all expectation, wipes the floor with logic, entrances, excites, horrifies. Nothing about it is subtle, it's the perfect alternative to an acid trip.

SImply Put, The Day After is a wonderful showing of the immediate aftermath of a nuclear war, from the perspective of a small town and its inhabitants. Sometimes you need a wicked unpleasant movie to kick you in the gut and knock the wind out of you. The Day After is simply one of the best horror movies, where the villain is war itself.

The Czechslovokian "The Pied Piper" is a masterpiece of stop-motion animation. Intricate, detailed, artistry in its purest and most mechanical sense. Watching this film is like sticking your head inside of a wooden antique clock, which happens to be full of rats. It does a whole lot, with quite little in the way of narrative. So beautiful~

One might imagine Lovely, head maid of Plaguesworth Manor, is a perfectionist who demands her under-maids preform flawlessly. On the contrary, the state of the manor is a sad one. Lovely still enjoys lording over her subordinates, scrutinizing their hard work ruthlessly. #OC #Maid #Spider

Earth Defense Force 2017 is one of those "made specifically for me" type video games. I adore it with all my heart, always have and always will! It's perfect chaos, wicked characterful, totally Japanese, and I love it! Played & beat it today. Game #10 of 2026~ I wish EDF 6 was out on Xbox ◞_ ◟

Glossy Buckthorn@glossybuckthorn· Feb 22

The most satisfying idle battle animation in video game history goes to Seraphita, from #Xenogears

Good luck with the raffle!! Much luck to the winner! Here's my Spider maid

Whereas something like Trigun subverts such an aesthetic by giving us a quirky loony pacifist gunslinger in a dark cynical world, Gungrave meanwhile embraces the absolute edge of an undead gangster hitman endowed with superhuman endurance and a helluvalotta bullets in a dark and cynical world! 10/10
