#noAI 🇫🇮 she/her I make (web)comics. Read Phantomland on Webtoon Read Phantomland on Tapas Toss me a coin
Favorite lore of the Lovelylocks kingdom that the titular Lady watches over: trees grow hair. If you dig a tunnel, hair will grow from the ceiling. Apparently the very soil of this realm is saturated with Lady's essence. I'm assuming her body is like a mushroom sprouting from a fungal network
Anyone else love villains? Like not straight evil (illegal) but complex, obviously I'm never excusing her repeated attempts to take over the lovelylocks kingdom every episode I just find her toxicity compelling, in the finale they even left it ambiguous if she'll ever redeem herself
I found Dragon's Heaven (1988) on youtube. It's like a little moebius ripoff mecha short film??? Really nice drawings though... it's pretty cute honestly
Movie has a lot of good faces... Anna Tsuchiya is unbelievably cute too, she's like a jp Christina Ricci
Happy pride month 🏳️🌈 in celebration I'm watching Shimotsuma Monogatari (2004)
Wondered if the Man's Life man ever fought big animals and indeed he did. What a champ
Lily of the valley ranks high as a flower because the smell never fails to give me Ratatouille flashbacks of school ending and summer break starting
Finished vol. 1 💎 Light fun stuff 💎 Toriyama's drawings are mega cute and expressive! 💎 I love his little vehicle designs too 💩 Poor Bulma... half the gags are about someone seeing her body or panties. This did not age too well lol (at least goku is a good boy)
Autism level: beautifully even curve on my letterbox ratings (watching mostly good movies hence the asymmetry)
There was this one scene in the manga that managed to lit up my shriveled little brain... the type of shit I hoped to see from someone in Tetsuo's position? Too bad there wasn't much of it in the end. He mostly just flies around destroying stuff
What do you mean you'll introduce a stone cold badass like CHIYOKO who fights... idk, twice, and then goes to sit in a corner? Could you spend one or two pages telling us where she came from or how she got so tough? There's like 400 pages dedicated to collapsing skyscrapers come on man
Been learning more Japanese lately! Happy to find out I can read kids' manga pretty comfortably now
There are only two smiles, the smug and the humble... the whore and the madonna
I also think about this with Paru Itagaki. Like she sure inherited some gene from her dad that makes you draw really wacky lines, amazing how that kinda thing plays out
Once I'm dictator if you put your cool design on the back of the shirt you go straight to jail
