#gorgeous amazing work op

[envy-of-the-apple]

Hey!! The ask you answered about some satosaugu fic recommendations kinda made me curious if you got any other fics to recommend. Pretty please? <33 (Also, I love your fics so much, been so fascinated with them ever since I found them. Please keep up the good work <3)

considering op didn't specify which fandom they wanted...I'm gonna go ahead and link every single one of my favorite fics mwahahaha

His Savior (geto suguru x reader)

Takes place right after Suguru kills the village and adopts his daughters. Reader is a non-sorcerer but is still able to weasel into his heart! For now its slice of life, super super cute

The Things that Lie beneath the Sea (Mermaid!OchaIzuKatsu x reader)

Reader is hinted to be recently divorced and decides to spend a year isolated on an island and meets three merpeople that are a bit too interesting. Even though im no longer in the mha fandom, i still go back to see if the author has added any chapters. Really really good! And it has a (sort of) language barrier!

Fight Night (MMA fighter!Sukuna x reader)

Reader gets tangled up with MMA fighter sukuna???? Yum???? it's like 80% smut buuuut the plot and they way they both bond is super cute too!

Zero day (Ghost x reader x Konig)

To avoid jail time, reader joins Task Force 141 as their tech support. Super interesting plot! I don't think it's being updated anymore:( but this is one of my favorite COD fics of all time!!!

Simple Math (Poly! Ghostsoap x Nurse!reader)

Soap and Ghost try to flirt with their oblivious nurse...despite soap being currently hospitalized

Bird Song (Jake sully x human!reader x neytiri)

Reader gets taken hostage by the Na'vi and becomes Neytiri's and Jake's babysitter. Yall its such a cute poly fic iloveitiloveitiloveitsosomuchhhh. Technically not completed but i think it ended perfectly!

Something (just like this) (Izuku x reader)

Reader gets hired to make pro-hero izuku a comic book based on his life and they bond! So so so cuteeeee ahhhhhh!!!!

Undone (Squid Game salesman! Kuroo x reader) (noncon)

Reader catches Kuroo with his latest victim player.

It's a vanasha fic. You already know it's gonna be amazing

Love, Death and Circuits (Android! YoRHa!Gojo x reader)

Reader wakes up ten thousand years in the future where humanity now lives on the moon. It's Android's gojo's first time meeting a human and they learn what happened while the reader was asleep.

THIS is the fic that got me into the nier automata hyperfixation for like three months. You do not need to play the game to understand this. It's a super sweet fic:) Yan gojo is there too as a treat!!!!

The Ostensive Fumblings of Being Human (Connor DBH x reader)

Post revolution. Androids and humans are trying to coexist. Reader is part of an organization to help ease this process along. Connor learns what it's like to fall in love

How many times have i reread this???? I'm not gonna answer that. It's so gorgeous. The author perfectly encapsulates a deviant connor. He's so lost and unsure but the way he keeps moving forward is so inspiring! And the mc and connor's blooming relationship is super cute to see. The world building the author is able to make from Cage's chicken scratch is amazing too! And philosophy!

I have like two thousand more but this is already long enough teehee. if yall read any pls pls pls give the authors a kudos/bookmark/comment!!!!

I haven’t been posting about Rebirth of a Star General but I have been steadily reading it and am about 190chapters in.

I will have to update my fave het web novels list because this is AMAZING.

QSCK most famous novel is, of course, Rebirth of the Malicious Empress of Military Lineage. It’s very well crafted and I enjoyed it (it’s probably the novel I like the most out of “OP reborn protag gets revenge and settles inner courtyard grudges as her OP ML watches admiringly and occasionally assists” genre) but my emotional investment and involvement was nil. The mains were too OP, inner courtyard scheming is something I have no interest in (I don’t watch harem dramas for a reason) and because FL woke up in the past before all the bad stuff really happened it opens the usual can of worms about punishing people for things they haven’t done yet (the sole novel I’ve seen actually tackle that issue was Rebirth of a Tyrant’s Pet which went on my fave list because FL wakes up as a kid and instead of getting revenge on kid versions of her first life husband and his brother who did her in first time around goes “well they are fucking kids, why the hell would I go after kids?” and actually had a sane plan of having different interactions with them that would not lead to the same outcome and that works! Not to mention she sees her brother in law who killed her in life 1 horribly abused and saves him because - once again - who on earth is OK with child abuse? Anyway, digression.)

I’ve seen people comment repeatedly that Star is not at all like this author’s typical novel and for me that is a great thing. Except for talent with weapons and formations (because she has experience from her past go-around as a general!), FL has no superpowers. Nor is the bulk of the novel dedicated to revenge - yes she wants it and eventually gets it but it’s like 10% of her time at most - like a sane person she spends the bulk of her time in living her new life - trying to make a career in the military, save various places, she acquires new friends and in a very very slow burn fashion, a new love interest.

And the thing is - her revenge would make sense here because unlike in most of those set-ups, she’s not reborn as herself younger or w/e - she wakes in a body of a young woman right after she herself was killed in life 1 - so that means the narrative continues linearly that way - any revenge is for acts actually committed in this timeline and characters have to deal with the fallout.

Oh, and the ML is not insanely OP either - he’s a very capable general and smart (yes, it’s general x general, mmmm!) and of course, this being a QSCK novel, he’s gorgeous, but he doesn’t have insane OP of eg Military Empress hero.

I am insanely invested in these people because we see their wounds and their slow growth (unlike in a lot of these novels where protags don’t really change much) and the secondaries are amazing too. So good! I hope the drama is half as good.

Speaking of, stills of the mains from the filming:

hi :) sorry for asking but how exactly does the proof of donations work? I've been donating but my full name and location are listed in the pcrf email and I don't want to share that on the internet

I’m no longer drawing dragons for donation receipts at the moment, but generally speaking you could screenshot just the part(s) of the email with the amount, date, and the organization!

You could also manually censor out your name and location when sending the images, just be sure to cover the info fully and with an opaque color.

Here are some amazing artists you can send donation receipts to & get gorgeous artwork! :)

So what I love about Old Louisville is how it is one of the most unique neighborhoods in the us. It is historic and gorgeous and yet definitively working class with amazing density, a great cultural scene, and stunning architecture. It even has shops, restaurants and the 1st co-op in Kentucky. If It had serious transit and a grocery store, it would be almost perfect

Does Gon have green hair or black hair? What colour are Killua's eyes? Which version of the anime do you like better?

Hi, thanks for the fun questions!

I like to go off the manga as the actual canon because that's the most direct way of seeing Togashi's intentions, rather than decisions made by an anime production crew. Togashi tends to color Gon's hair as either black or green or both. (Just some examples, there are many, many more out there of course!)

Because of the frequency with which he uses green, I think it's fair to see Gon's hair as either a very dark green verging on black, or black at the roots and then green towards the tips. Of course not a "natural" hair color in our world, but neither is Killua's or that of multiple other characters, so I'm sure there's a wider variation of natural hair colors in the HxH world. (Obviously, this is a very common thing in anime and manga, haha.)

Togashi occasionally colors Killua's eyes brown for whatever reason, but he uses blue considerably more (and so does the colored version of the manga/both anime adaptations) so I definitely think blue is his intended choice for Killua's eyes.

As for which anime version I prefer--ultimately I prefer 2011 because it follows the manga much more closely and I absolutely love how it adapted Greed Island through Election Arc especially. It really hit its stride through those arcs. I've also written about issues I have with the characterization of Gon and Killua in the 1999 anime. That said, I think both series have pros and cons, and I do enjoy both and also have issues with both to some degree as well.

Some of 2011's pros and cons in my view:

Pros:

Follows more of the manga

Follows the manga much more closely than 1999

Amazing voice acting--particularly from Megumi Han and Mariya Ise (Gon and Killua), but there are tons of other phenomenal performances as well!

Really impressive animation in many scenes

Amazing production consistency for a series with as long of a run as it had, gets even better as it goes!

A nice soundtrack and OP/EDs

Overall polished and satisfying series and overall well-adapted from the source material

Even increases the emotional impact of some of the scenes

Added cute Gon and Killua content that I personally enjoy (Huncyclopedia, trailers, some added scenes, etc.)

Cons:

Doesn't leave out a lot, but what it does leave out is strange and frustrating (Kite stuff, Kon, Leorio scenes, etc.)

The aesthetic could be better IMHO. The character designs are fine, but I would have preferred them be just a bit more grounded in some cases (think like 1999). The color palette is very bright and cheery and looks somewhat fake or artificial in a way.

Feels overly light at the beginning when compared to the manga, oddly tonally dissonant with the later parts of the series and makes the series hard to recommend to some people IMHO

Some strange uses of the soundtrack, early in the series in particular

1999's pros and cons:

Pros:

Really gorgeous aesthetic and use of cel animation

Often amazing visual direction

I love the character designs overall, particularly as drawn by some of the specific animation directors who worked on it

Darker, immersive atmosphere

Some of the soundtrack is beautiful!

Some of the added content is neat and/or funny

LeoPika city

Nice OPs/EDs

Fun and sometimes goofy additional content like the musical, radio shows, etc.

Cons:

Adds a LOT of original content and changes things from the manga, definitely not all of which I like or agree with. Some of the additions/changes are frustrating to me.

Gon and Killua's characters and dynamic in particular are changed a fair bit in ways I don't always enjoy

Slooooowwww pacing

Too visually dark at times and can be hard to discern what's happening

Weird fight choreography at times

Even with how much I love that era of anime, it sometimes feels really dated--even older than it actually is, IMHO

These are overly simplified and I'm certain I'm leaving out a lot, but hopefully that gives you an idea of how I feel about each!

I sometimes wish we could have an anime that mixes together the pros from both and erases some of the cons. I feel like a theoretical blend of both versions would potentially be amazing, but at the same time I know we're very lucky as a fandom to have two anime adaptations with their own unique strengths and weaknesses, and I'm grateful for that!

Zoro, Sanji, Law, and any other OP men With Fem S/O that wears a bikini! Whether it be the sexy kind or some cute bikini is all up to you!

—𝙾𝙿 𝙼𝚎𝚗'𝚜 𝚁𝚎𝚊𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝚂𝚎𝚎𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚃𝚑𝚎𝚒𝚛 𝙵!𝚂/𝙾 𝚒𝚜 𝚆𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚊 𝙱𝚒𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚒—

Summary: Headcanons where a few OP men seeing their S/O is wearing a bikini.

Pairing: Roronoa Zoro x F!S/O, Vinsmoke Sanji x F!S/O.

CW: Fluff, slightly suggestive, grammatical error, OOC.  

A/N: EDNGBASWHGABWH FINALLY I COULD WRITE AGAIN (I WENT AWAY 4 A FEW DAYS) ʚ♡⃛ɞ(•ᴗ•❁) I HOPE U LIKE THIS ANON EHE- ALSO IM SRY BUT I DON’T WRITE 4 LAW-

—𝚁𝚘𝚛𝚘𝚗𝚘𝚊 𝚉𝚘𝚛𝚘—

To be honest, Zoro likes whatever outfits you're wearing. Deal with it. For him, you're already an amazing person who could accept him just the way he is. So, go on, wear any clothes you like and makes you feel comfortable.

However, that bikini makes him can't take off his eyes from you and your gorgeous body. He couldn’t help but to stare at you, ends up snap out of it OR probably one of his mates teases him about it.

Doesn’t let anyone to stare at you in a lustful gaze, touch you, catcalling you, or flirt with you. Well, not to mention he pushes the ero cook away from you because he hates it seeing that chef all over you and flirting with you as if you’re Sanji’s, not Zoro’s.

You wear a sexy bikini? That’s hot, dear! You wear a cute bikini? That’s adorable, sweetie! All of them suit you actually, pick any bikinis you like, dear!

Can he become a flirty one? Later when he’s already get used to this romance relationship thing. When you wear that, he whispers something... Pretty dirty sometimes. Actually praising, but slightly suggestive.

“That looks good on you, baby. Damn, ‘m so lucky to have you.”

—𝚅𝚒𝚗𝚜𝚖𝚘𝚔𝚎 𝚂𝚊𝚗𝚓𝚒—

Oh, dear. Oh, lord. Oh, goodness. Are you trying to kill Sanji? Because, DAMN. Seriously, he could suggest you a lot of clothes. For him, everything suits you. BUT, you must be comfortable with the clothes you’re wearing.

As soon as he sees you in a bikini, his life in on the line. He nosebleeds A LOT. Is he going to die? Hmm... He can if this continue. But don’t worry, he’ll praise you here and there! For him, you’re a perfection!

Don’t let other guys touch you, flirt with you, stare at you with that lustful gaze of them, or touch you. Even if the marimo only looks at you, this Mr. Nosebleed starts to pick a fight with him.

A sexy bikini on you? Beautiful, honey! A cute bikini on you? Stunning, baby! If you need any suggestions or recommendations, you came to the right person because Sanji is ready to give all of his opinions or help you choosing which bikini you should wear for today.

Every moves you make make his heartbeat stops, how could a perfect and stunning person like you is in a relationship with him? He’s so lucky to have you! Don’t feel insecure, he’ll remind you all the time that you’re already beautiful just the way you are (sounds like a song).

“S/O-CHWAN IN A BIKINI!!~ YOUR BODY LOOKS GORGEOUS AND PERFECT, DARLING!!!~”

I DO NOT OWN ALL OF THE CHARACTERS & DO NOT REPOST MY WORKS.

I FINALLY FOUND YOU! I'm a twitter person but couldn't message you there so I'm messaging you here. Your art is what got me into ZoSan! I'm caught up with OP and didn't have any pairings and then I saw your art of the Den Den Mushi where Sanji accidentally tells Zoro he loves him and I DIED. Got into the pairing after that finally found your art again. Thank you so much for sharing your work, your sense of humor is amazing and your style is gorgeous!

Awwww My heart is melting. Thank you for such kind words. I'm so flattered that my art got you into zosan. It really is a cool ship with LOTS of beautiful fanarts and fanfics. It just keeps giving.

I'm happy it was the den den mushi one that piqued your interest, hehe. I'm quite proud of that one. (Perhaps I should make Part 2)

I also didn't realize no one could message me on Twitter, so thanks for telling me that.

“Crocodile.” You smiled pleasantly, handing him a bag of gold nonchalantly for the mission. “It's been a while.”

Crocodile chuckled, wrapped his arm around you, and handed one of his employees the bag, who quickly ran back to the base. “It sure has. What have you been up to, dear?”

“Nothing much.” You grabbed a glass of champagne and thanked the waiter. “What about you?”

“Oh, you know? The usual. Warlord work. You know how it is.”

“I do.” You laughed softly, holding onto your drink. “You know, since we’re done here, let’s say we get out of here. Go somewhere a little more,” you looked around the room, at the laughing people filling every corner. “Quiet.”

Crocodile cleared his throat, almost choking on his drink. He knew his face was bright red, but he had to keep his stoic demeanor. He offered his arm to you with a smile. “Yes. Let's.”

You locked your arm with his and led him out of the giant party boat you were both on and onto the shore. The moonlight made your eyes look gorgeous and somehow made Crocodile look taller.

“You know Croc,” you sat down on a cold rock, taking off your overcoat. “I miss the old days.”

“You do?” Crocodile decided to take a seat next to you on the sand, the sound of the waves in the sea were enchanting.

“Of course I do.” Your eyes stayed glued to the moon, your hair lightly blowing from the small ocean breeze. “The days where we would steal something and run off like this. Where we would stay in gross hotels or inns with only one bed. Before you became a warlord.”

“Ah, those were the days, darling.”

“I just…” You turned to Croc, your eyes not leaving his for even a second. “I want them back. I missed you.”

“I missed you too.”

You got off of the rock and cupped the sides of Crocodile’s cheeks, placing a long, loving kiss onto his lips. Your hands moved to his ears and you combed back his hair.

When Crocodile opened his eyes you were gone. Just like the old days.

Solo Leveling Episode 6 Thoughts

Excellent ep!!! Spoilery thoughts for the anime, novel, and manhwa below, also CW: blood, murder

The OP is still so good. Between Studio PPURI's animation and the song, just ahhh. I'm so excited for the Igris fight in the show T-T

Oooh more Go Gunhee and Woo Jinchul! It's fun to see how much more they're showing up, even more than in the manhwa! Jinchul looks really nice.

lakjdalj I know when Jinchul says, "Would it be all right if I asked for a bit of instruction? . . . It might be the kind of change of pace you need, too." (smile) he's saying, "let's spar" (it's a martial arts thing), but alkdjlaj I love this addition to the cute flirtiness of their relationship. It's very sweet. The novel gave us Gunhee asking Jinchul out for drinks, and now Jinchul is like, "let's spar :3". It's so cute.

Jinwoo v the dungeon boss is pretty cool. It's neat to see Jinwoo move so much, and the animation is gorgeous.

Jinwoo's jacket is giving me Seragaki Aoba DRAMAtical Murder vibes with its ridiculously wide collar lol (Doesn't help they're both that same bright blue).

Gunhee's fond gaze as he faces Jinchul :3 Also it's neat to see Gunhee fight. There's like no way we'll get to him facing the Frost Monarch this season (it's just not gonna get that far with 12 episodes under 30 minutes each, and considering we're only at the Lizards fight in episode 6), so it's a nice little preview of hopefully future seasons.

They're so cute T-T

Jinwoo sadly accepting he'll get betrayed T-T He's so used to it T-T And Jinho standing by him!!! Love He :3 Even Jinwoo is like : D Jinho still calling him bro, bless.

O.O Park Heejin, Gina, and Lee Bora (had to look her up, since she's a manhwa-original character, and I believe only actually named in Arise) know each other??? And Gina is wearing normal clothes before reincarnation timeline??? Marvels, all!!! And they know Iron??? (And of course he's still a dick lol) This is so nice :3 Folks know each other :3 It's really wonderful world expansion.

Jinwoo with his necromancy shadow energy already, looks beautiful.

The song during the Lizards fight section (Dark Aria &lt;LV2> by Hiroyuki Sawano, lyrics by Benjamin) is gorgeous. I don't know why tumblr is screwing up the formatting here. The link works. It just looks bad.

Jinwoo using dash to appear in front of Kyuhwan was an amazing bit of animation that was honestly terrifying alkdjlaj His face alkdjalj It's terror time, indeed.

Bye Dongsuk. Aww, poor Jinho, just getting nearly murdered and traumatized a dozen times, but hey, you get a sugar baby out of it kind of, so win-win?

I feel like learning a bunch of people died is the really wrong time to geek out over armor releases.

And a little peek of Dongsoo. Bleh.

Wonderful episode :3 Loved all the stuff they added! This series continues to feel like really fun fanfiction in all the best ways. The animation was beautiful! The music was great! Jinwoo is going through so many discoveries and revelations and realizing how confining and horrifying the system is in new ways, and Jinho is having all sorts of discoveries of his own. Can't wait until S01E07.

German Vikings Con🫶🏼

I wasn’t going to post these here because I don’t like how I look but I just love these pictures too much🥹❤️ Not only I was lucky enough to see Alex again, but I also met Jordan and he was the sweetest🥰

I first met Jordan for his autograph. I took my favourite pic of Ubbe so he could sign it and he was so sweet and nice to me! His smile was amazing😭 he asked me if he’d see me again and I said yes, so when I came to his photo op he was like “hello love! I was missing you” and I nearly cried (hence my face in the pic, because he hugged me and I was freaking out). I saw him a few times during the convention, and he was always smiling and being absolutely perfect and I just love him even more now❤️

(I’ll leave this pic here even though the quality is terrible because I want you guys to appreciate his smile🥲)

Alex was, as always, the main character of the story of my life. He recognised me (the memory that man has) and he gave me an amazing hug during the photo op. He always had a smile for me🫶🏼 the pic with him is absolutely perfect even though my face kind of ruins it but I don’t really care! During the Meet&Greet he was so close and open with us! And he talks a lot🥹 I never thought I’d meet someone that talks as much as I do, so it’s very nice. He described himself as a siberian husky and I can’t agree more with that😭❤️ I had some gifts for him for the autograph, so I couldn’t talk that much with him bc I had some autographs for other people :( but that’s okay because I’m seeing him again very soon🫶🏼 he greeted me with a “hey gorgeous” and a soft smile, he hugged me and I made him laugh, which is like the biggest accomplishment of my entire life. He was a delight, and I can’t wait to see him again🥰

I also had the chance to talk to Alexander. He was also very nice even though we all could see he was a bit tired (he spent days giving concerts around Germany🥺). When I thanked him for coming, he gave me the biggest smile and thanked me. He’s amazing, I’ve seen him in many projects besides Vikings since I was little so it was a dream getting to talk to him!

I saw Ida too! She’s the sweetest, and so cute🥺 also Ragga, who is even more beautiful in person! And Jasper, who was very nice to me even though we didn’t have much time! I would have loved to interact with more of the guests, especially John Kavanagh because both my mum and I are huge fans of his work, but unfortunately there wasn’t much time and I had a tight budget😅

It was an exhausting but amazing day. I also got to meet people I’ve been taking to for years and that became friends to me and that was fantastic too! I loved spending an entire day surrounded by people that love the same things I do. It’s like therapy❤️ I loved every single minute of it, even the stressful parts😂 they’re always worth it.

Next week I’ll travel to Paris to see Alex again and to finally meet my beloved Marco🫶🏼 I can’t even explain how thankful and excited I am when I think about it. The convention is one day before my birthday so I also get to spend my birthday in Paris with my family (I have family in France I haven’t seen in a while bc of the pandemic💔). It’s perfect🫶🏼

If you’ve read all of this, thank you❤️ I truly hope every single person in this fandom has the chance to enjoy days like this one. We deserve it🥰 and it helps to cope with reality when life becomes too much💖

SO!

The Star Beast!

Let's talk about it!

(Major spoilers under the cut)

-First off, I fucking love Fourteen, absolutely a delight, I wanna hug them (Okay, technically I HAVE hugged them when I got to hug David at the con this year, but still!). Also, 'male-presenting Time Lord', bah! Still gonna use they/them when I refer to them because please just let me have this, I don't care, the Doctor canonically doesn't give two shits about gender and even refers to going by the article Doctor over a pronoun in this special anyway.

-Second, DONNA! OH DONNA! I love her, I love her so much, just- oh, she hasn't changed a damn bit! Including missing the fucking alien spacecraft because that was exactly what I expected from her. <3

-Also, most supportive mom, love that.

-Rose~! Oh, oh Rose, how I love you! No notes, she's amazing! It did hurt to hear her dead name being used, but considering that it was done by a bunch of dickheaded kids, it makes sense. But we will never use that name for her here, nope, she's just Rose. <3

-Shaun is a delight, Donna got herself the most excellent of malewives ever

-Sylvia, ah, exactly as I expected, though she is trying to be better for her daughter and granddaughter, so points to her.

-Meep! So much to say on the meep but I'll keep it brief: transphobic little shit.

-UNIT is always fun to see, but how well known are they nowadays because the BBC report actually referred to them. I dunno, I've still working my way through the Third Doctor's era where UNIT was a major plot point and I haven't... finished watching Thirteen's era yet (only because I want to watch it with my gf the next time we see each other).

-Fourteen interacting with the Noble family was great, especially with them trying to see the Meep and Sylvia panicking and wow, this face cannot escape being slapped I wonder if Donna will get to do one herself.

-The action stuff is so much fun, exactly what I expect from this series.

-Being on the Meep's ship, the fact that Donna went to help the Doctor and just... oh, oh, them freaking out and crying because they were scared she'd die when she remembered. I started sobbing.

-Hell, I was crying when they held her in their arms and said he didn't care if the grunts shot them... uuuuhhhhhggggg... Fourteen cares about her so much! That's his best friend!

-Rose! Rose and Donna, Time Ladies! Lord, Lady, and neither! Don't care what anyone says, I loved this. I didn't voice it, but I had a very strong feeling that Rose would inherit the DoctorDonna.

-Was a little confused about them 'letting go' but... yeah, alright, okay. Still, I wonder if there is still a bit of Time Lord left in them.

-Is there any chance that they can sell Rose's plushies. I really want the Ood one.

-THE TARDIS!

-Oooooh, she's beautiful and big and very classic and yet so very nuwho at the same time, a perfect blend, and just so gorgeous! And Fourteen freaking out in excitement, running around like a child, being so happy about a coffee maker in the TARDIS! <3<3<3

-And Donna's reaction! She was so happy too!

-But then the 'killed me' scene... oh, oh honey, you've been holding onto that for centuries, those memories and the guilt. It's honestly heartbreaking to know that the Doctor, through all their new faces, still held onto those feelings about what happened to Donna.

-I'm excited, don't know what the fuck is gonna happen in the next episode since we didn't get a preview and I think it's the least known of the episodes so far.

-I saved this for last, but I wanna talk about the sonic screwdriver cause I know some people are gonna be all 'oh, it's too OP!'

First off, the sonic has always been, it always will be, it's a fucking sci-fi tool, sci-fi series always have some sort of tool that does everything.

Second, whatever the hell it did to make the shields was awesome, that's such a cool trick and I love it. I bet it's done using sound and light waves, which makes for a very interesting concept and something I'd love to explore in one of my sci-fi aus. Not sure how it made that cool schematics things, but whatever.

Also, leave me alone! I love the new sonic! I need to get my hands on one, but they're always sold out or too expensive!

(Okay, not really last, just a bonus, but damn, no offense to Ten, but Fourteen is a bit more attractive to me. I dunno, I mean, I was crushing hard on the DT at 15, but at 31, it's like, oh. Oh no. He's aged so well, he's so pretty. This is probably Crowley's fault.)

#john's commentary

[dogsuffrage]

Here is my updated review of every game I have completed in the Yakuza/Like a Dragon franchise. Have not yet completed Ishin, because it just wasn't the sort of combat I was into at the moment, but will definitely revisit. I always complete every substory. Reviews of 0-6 are pulled directly from my old review a few years ago, adding in the games I have played since.

1) Yakuza 0: obviously the most unique setting. Finally you can play as ol’ Mad Dog Majima. A consistently good story with good side content and I love the cabaret club. The pinnacle of the old engine combat. 80s!!!

2) Like a Dragon: They are actually so bold for switching to turn-based combat but it very much works. Great story, great mini games, and very fun combat that could use some tweaks but it's their first turn-based game so obviously. Dragged down only by the fact that I could like Yokohama more. But that's really only a slight dock against it, still extremely good.

3) Gaiden: Yes I'm putting the fucking spin off as 3rd place. Amazing blend of Yakuza and Judgment style combat. Really fun without feeling ridiculous. Coliseum was very fun. Story was my favorite so far. That one scene at the end broke me.

4) Yakuza 5: FIVE CITIES???? I feel like I went on a vacation. And FIVE CHARACTERS??? I love them all. Saejima’s is a lil boring. But there is so much variety. I love the bold choice to become a dancing game midway through for a bit. Made me cry a lot. Very close to being as good as 0. Love the diverse side stories.

5) Lost Judgment: Improves on Judgment in every way. Still honestly just not into Yagami, but I really enjoyed the school stories and Kaito Files.

6) Kiwami 2: Dragon Engine is controversial but I enjoy the shift to a style that makes you feel way more powerful. First person exploration literally changes the game. Super immersive, gorgeous. A technical marvel. Brought back the cabaret club!! Massive improvement from 6.

7) Judgment: This game showed off the new philosophy of combat that would be seen in this, Lost Judgment, and Gaiden, and I really enjoy how it balances strategy while still feeling insanely OP. That said, I found myself pretty bored with the story and Yagami's character. Not enough quality side cases or mini games to keep me engaged. The opposite of 3 in that I didn't care that much for the story but the combat rules.

8) Kiwami: it’s fine. rides on 0’s coattails. only good bc 0 was so good and the gameplay is basically identical. the OG story also helps. nishiki :(

9) Yakuza 6: First Dragon Engine game! Love the immersion and first person exploration and I enjoy the story follows 0 in diverging from the narrative mold the games tend to fall in but... it’s not a very good story. It definitely has its high moments tho. The characters are fun... but it’s blatantly unfinished. The baseball side story is very fun to me as is the bar conversation one, but it’s missing so many minigames and the combat is easily the most bland and uninspired in the series. It’s really poorly made combat wise. Kamurocho isn’t even finished. But I do love Onomichi. First fully fleshed out small town. Overall great potential but they literally did not finish it. You can feed stray kittens and rescue them though.

10) Yakuza 4: same as 5 in that I love having multiple characters. Great minigames. Honestly not much to write home about. This would be last if 3’s combat wasn’t so bad.

11) Yakuza 3: Listen. I love Ryukyu. I love Morning Glory and spending time with the kids. Also Rikiya my baby boy. It is the softest game in that sense. It beats 4 in both narrative and substory content. But the combat and leveling system sucks so hard man. That’s all.

12) Dead Souls: Not really sure why they made this one. Still enjoyed it but it's the worst one.

So, obligatory Denise Gough at SWCE 2023 story time!

I’d done a photo op with Ewan which ended up being super quick so wasn’t expecting much. Knew I wanted the ‘at ease’ pose and decided to be cheeky and ask if she could possibly do the Eyebrow. She gave me the biggest grin and said she’d try but couldn’t guarantee she would be able to get it up (pun unintended). Anyway, as you may or may not be able to tell from the photo, she managed it and then said she hoped she did before I left the booth. She was so lovely and up for anything, I just knew I needed to get the photo signed.

I was a little way behind in the autograph queue behind @hegodamask (thanks for the swag, girl!) same story.

Accidentally got in the wrong queue for autographs, sent to the naughty kids line behind the booth. Spent the hour wait chatting with an amazing Rey, Cassian, and Dedra cosplayer who could’ve been a stunt double for Denise, she was so good. When we finally moved round to take our turn, I was genuinely shaking with a bit of adrenaline and excitement.

Anyway, the lovely thing about Denise is that she was kind of conducting a multi-way convo with everyone at the table; the Rey cosplayer had a program from one of Denise’s broadway runs for her to sign and she made a joke about flashbacks while smirking at our group. Then the Dedra cosplayer got to her and she was just gushing over this woman’s cosplay (apparently the tunic is an icy, grey-tinged white, not a warm white) and said she was the best she’d seen so far. Dedra the cosplayer had told us an awesome story about how she ‘dedra-fied’ herself and it had got her a promotion at work (she was a lawyer). Denise loved the story and said she’d ‘dedra-ed the f**k out of the trial’. Then it was my turn.

Amazing human being that she is, she recognised me and excitedly showed the booth assistants my photo, saying I’d asked for the Eyebrow and she’d managed to do it. I told her how much I loved her work, not just in Andor but in stuff like Under the Banners of Heaven etc., and we chatted about that then I told her a story where channeling Dedra had got me a job opportunity I’d always wanted and she said that was awesome but that she was also flattered to have such brainy fans. She gave me the same message as @hegodamask and such a gorgeous smile. I ended it by saying I loved and related to Dedra (minus the fascism) even though I was resigned to watching her die horribly on screen, and she just winked at me and said: “Maybe, maybe not. I’m the only one who knows.” And then she made a joke about even Tony Gilroy not knowing because she just does whatever she wants as Dedra 🤣😭🥰

Sounds about right. If I was Tony/LF, I’d just let her. Give her all the spin-offs now!!!

The artwork question is such good idea!! So cute!!😭😭😭

Here's some art accounts I think all of you should check out! They're are primarily encanto fanart lolll... but check out the og blogs and look at their other stuff too x

Their art is legitimately so gorgeous, sometimes, I can't believe it's traditional!

@azucareraart

Post link💫

Just... look at this art style, it literally always takes my breath away ITS BEAUTIFUL. So expressive and unique, I love it sm. They also have an encanto fanfiction too, it's set a few years in the future and is Mirabel x oc, I would never usually look for those stories on my own, since I'm not really into non canonical ships, but the art they made for it intrigued me and although I haven't read it in a while, from what I did read it was amazing. Really well written and descriptive!

This style is just so cute, yet it can convey such strong, angry emotion. The colours and movement, PEPA’S EYES, it reminds me for some reason of lino printing. It's so cool!!
