Happy New Years everyone!! Today is my third anniversary in MDZS so I wanted to put together a three year summary of the art I've done in that time. It's sure... been three years. Here's to hoping I get to draw a ton of Wangxian for a fourth year as well!

Review Proper

I'm not sure what's gonna end first: the series or my fucking life.

As much as I love Saezuru, it's gone on for so long that it's starting to get old literally and figuratively. You know, I wouldn't even be mad if Yoneda Kou ended the series by killing Yashiro off in 6. 7 is still well-written to a point and the BLCD did deserve to rank second AGAIN in chil-chil 2022, but I'm not sure about the future of this series (it wasn't nominated in 2023 tho which is one of the few good things about 2023's).

I say a lot of things, but I'm still invested in vol. 7 & 8.

I don't know who I'm jealous of, BUT THAT SHOULD BE ME! This scene is in vol 8, not 7, but I wanted to include it anyway.

I do agree that Saezuru portrayal of the whole yakuza deal is the realest 'cause happy endings over there are quite rare, but this isn't a novel that comes out in one go. Doesn't help that June is ass. I've heard from several friends who've read the latest releases that it feels like it's lost its way and that just makes me sad. I'm still hopeful tho.🤧

As I've already stated, this placed second in 2022's awards. I mean, it's Saezuru. Frontier doesn't spare a penny for it lmao. All the major characters are voiced, and they managed to bring the A-listers back again. Sometimes, I forget that Saezuru is actually based on a manga whenever I listen to the BLCDs 'cause the production is just that good.

Shingaki slayed as usual. I've said this many times before, but no matter how bad or how well he does in another role, he will always be Yashiro. I just came from Tsunaida and we're in the middle of a Rei event in Nu:carnival, so I would expect myself to adjust to Yashiro, but I didn't need any of that lmao. Yashiro is truly Shingaki's magnum opus. I'm not at all surprised that he placed 3rd best seiyuu for Yashiro. Deserved.

Speaking of Nu:carnival, I will forever be obsessed with Yashiro's relationship with the other characters aside from Doumeki. Nanahara's voiced by my one true love, Okitsu, but like Yashiro, I love him for his character and not his voice. It is nice having the other veterans in here with him, too. The slut trio is complete with Daddy Complex SatoTaku, Boss Ass Chaser Okitsu, and Damel in Distress Shingaki. #BLESS I want Kamiya to end up with Nanahara.

I haven't heard Wacchan in years HAHAHAHAHA. His Doumeki is still amazing as always. My issues with the story aside, I'm really looking forward to his "break" in vol. 8. EEEEEEE

Special mention to my Ryuuzaki and Miyake Kenta who made their comebacks here too. I missed him so much! LMAO

The BLCD is pretty accurate to the... magazine at least, but June does sell the translated tanko (fortunately). Like the previous installments, reading the manga while listening to the BLCD was so smooth because it was so accurate. Now 7 does end in a cliffhanger, so I don't really advise listening to it if you still don't have 8. But if cliffhangers aren't an issue for you, then break a leg!

anybody genuinely clicking "follow" on a blog they like right now is so brave, it's like they're walking into machine gun fire. their pinned post had better be a video of them selecting each image containing a bus

#i feel like i'm running professional background checks here #please explain the blank space on your resume between august 2021 and last week #ah i see here that you have weirdly specific opinions about a niche character from a 60s tv show and may fit in well at our organization #there's a whole 'undecided' category where it's like is this AI generated or is this person genuinely unwell? requires further review #that tumblr lyfe

I just watched the sapphic movie City of Trees and it's really incredible and very real and comforting.

A 28-year-old photo editor Ainsley Sadler who's been living in New York comes back to her small town for the first time in 7 years to spend Christmas with her kind parents and sister. She wasn't invited to her high school reunion, and she feels pretty dejected about the town and all she left behind.

There she remeets Sophie Michaels, former cheerleader, and they spend time together getting to know each other better. Sophie works to conserve old-growth trees.

It has the realism of Clerks where it's not a mocumentary, but it feels like someone is standing in the corner filming a home movie while incredibly ordinary events unfold. It takes a romcom theme done to death and asks when you strip all the overly-romanticized tropes away what does that look like when two people just reconnect.

It doesn't really try to solve anything, and it's very open ended what happens next. It's just a portrait of a moment in time that means something to the people in the film, and no one outside it would ever notice it's passing.

Full movie from the production company:

Seven Psalms is out tomorrow(!!!), so for no reason in particular, here’s Paul in a pink t-shirt.

#paul in a pink t-shirt never misses #speculation of this album has been around since 2021 so it’s fair to say the excitement has been steadily building for a while #I have absolute trust in Paul based on his.. rather impressive (putting it mildly) track record #not that he owes anyone a damn thing #just the fact he’s releasing another album at 81 is a reason to celebrate in itself #but as per his ever-evolving musical style I’m sure this will be magical #I’ve been actively avoiding reviews that keep popping up because I want to hear it with almost no prior expectations aside from the trailer #paul simon #seven psalms

!!!NEW REVIEW!!!

for the first time since early 1938 (that isn’t a returnee, as is the case with Friz Freleng) Warner’s invites a new director to the stand: Norm McCabe. in spite of such a short career—drafted into the military in late 1942 and the studio reaching capacity upon his 1946 return–he proved to have one of the longest careers out of any of the directors (and being the last to pass away in 2006), even working for Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment in the ‘90s on such shows as Tiny Toons and Animaniacs to name a few.

having gotten his feet wet co-directing with a Bob Clampett out on sick leave, Robinson Crusoe, Jr. is the first short to truly put his skills to the test: a burlesque of the ever popular Daniel Defoe novel (whose lack of lampooning now is pretty apparent) with Porky as the titular castaway.

#anything involving Robinson Crusoe is ripe with racist stereotypes and this is no exception! tread with caution #lt #looney tunes #robinson crusoe jr #mccabe #reviews #..when is the last time i posted about a Norm McCabe short?? gotta be at least 2 years oof #that changes now! #okay not counting the two reviews prior: Jan 2022 and the post before that Jan 2021 WHOOOOS #*WHOOPS but that too

Still trying to get my breath back

Loki Spoilers:::

That was nearly 50 minutes of pure stress. Holy shit. I think I held my breath the entire time.

The TVA is programmed to self-destruct!! Hence the lights flickering and the keepers going through time doors.

Ok... now that I got that off my chest-

Tom Hiddleston's acting!! If he doesn't get an award for his acting, I'm going to be very, very upset. The screams, the urgency and fear! I really felt for him the the entire time.

And the time skipping gave me so many whumperflies

As always, the exchanges between Loki and Mobius were top-tier. The skin conversation and their care for one another were *chefs kiss*

I love OB so much! He adds a deadpan delivery that is absolutely hilarious. It definitely adds comic relief to the intensity of season 2.

Can't wait for next week!!
