Why I think Yen Press should license the PMMM reprint manga
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As some of you probably know, the original Puella Magi Madoka Magica manga (that adapted the original series) was completely redrawn back in 2021 to celebrate the series' tenth anniversary by Hanokage, the artist of the original manga - and the growth shines through!
That said, though... There's something I wonder: If Yen Press (the main English publisher of PMMM manga) will ever pick this up for a English release. I already asked @silvermoon424 - whose scans (which you can find here) I'll be using in this post - about this not too long ago, but I felt like making this very post to try and convey how I feel better.
I know it seems kind of pointless, seeing as they already have the original manga (and even released that omnibus a few years back), but I personally feel like there's actually a few ways it can work, which is why I decided to compile a small list.
Well, then. No more messing about: Let's get started!
It's a rather major Madoka Magica release. Seeing as Yen Press is mostly focused on the main PMMM releases, this wouldn't be too out of the ordinary to pick up.
It would be the perfect thing to coincide with the (basically inevitable at this point) Rebellion manga omnibus.
They'll finally be able to update their old translation - something that I was honestly kind of disappointed about with their omnibus of the original manga.
They'll finally be able to translate scenes that were left out of the original manga. Examples from Chapter 1 include the beginning with Madoka's family:

And the encounter with Homura at the end:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In fact, speaking of these scenes...
The reprint, from what I've seen, is a lot closer to the anime. Seeing as the original took a lot of liberties, wouldn't you guys agree it'd make sense for Yen Press to license a much more accurate version, too? It also gives readers the choice to pick which version they'd rather get.
It would be really cool to compare the differences between the two versions, both art-wise and translation-wise.
It would honestly just be really nice to own, all things considered.
The art's just super good, what more can I say?
So... Yea! That's all the reasons I can think of as to why Yen Press should license the PMMM reprint manga.
But hey, this is all just my personal opinion. What do you guys think? Do you think it would be a good idea for Yen Press to pick up the reprint manga sometime, or do you think the original manga is enough? Be sure to let me know in the reblogs or replies!

sigma's not dead guys hear me out (BSD 109 SPOILERS)
when atsushi traded information via sigma's ability, his brain also needed time to figure out it, hence him passing out in anne's room. sigma this time went with the intention of using his ability to learn everything about dostoevsky, which the next pages show to be an INCREDIBLE amount of information.
Tumblr media
its likely that fyodor knows of this caveat to sigma's ability and was banking on the fact that even if his ability doesn't work against gifted users, sigma would still be incapacitated for a while due to his ability.
every time that we've seen fyodor kill somone using his ability, there's been blood shown. this wasn't the case in the 109 scene, at least not visibly.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this still doesn't explain why fyodor would allow sigma to read him in the first place, but it could be that it was planned or even a bargain on dostoevsky's part to move things on skk wise and have chuuya take care of dazai without other interruptions
either way hes NOT dead (i hope PLEASEE) and surely next chapter they will be fine. right

i love the idea that Wild is a big brother to basically all of the kids in his Hyrule. it’s such a good heacanon that i never see utilized.
#with their dads permission he’ll take Cottla and Koko on horse rides and they always have food ready for his horses when he comes into town#cottla wants to learn archery to be like him and he melts when he finds that out#all the kids in Hateno have been caught giving treats to his horses#this is a popular headcanon i think but him teaching the local kiddos how to sword fight so often times he’ll be found directing a horde of#children who’re all swinging treebaches around. he couldn’t look prouder of them.#imagine when he gets older and all the village kids r teens/young adults and all of a sudden the village has skilled hunters and foragers#and everyone’s like ‘wow what’s hateno doing’ and the answer is they all had a great big brother#by older i mean he’d be like. early thirties. but y’know ahsnfjks#wild’s impact should rest in the ppl i think. botw is all abt humanity’s strive to overcome hardship and find beauty in the misery#(well. it is to me anyhow lmao)#so i love the idea of his influence not resting in politics or myths or whatever#but within the culture and spirit of those he fought for#in my brain he definitely wanted to rescue Zelda at first and that’s the only reason he was going to fight ganon#but as his journey progressed he wanted to protect and cultivate the future more than rescue the past#i like this idea w zelda too. like not only will the future generation have great fighters but excellent scholars and leaders.#wow i am RAMBLING#anyhow. i like big bro wild.#linked universe#lu#jojo’s linked universe#linkeduniverse#lu wild#wild lu#wild linked universe#linked universe wild

your post just reminded me of how much koko's design pisses me off
they changed misako's originally dark brown hair to ORANGE
THERE WAS NO REASON
LITERALLYYY !!!! one of my friends and I had a discussion ab how the ninjago fandom sucks with a lot of things regarding character races and then led to how people like the whitewashed version of misako way more than misako and how the movie was wrong asf for that. ..

Welcome Home × Soul Eater AU ramble
I had announced it, I shall now share it !
Behold, WH SE AU
Context :
In the world of Soul Eater, there are people who can transform into weapons (called demonic weapons), a genetic trait coming from some witch experimenting on humans centuries before. To avoid having those "weapons" go out of control, Shinigami, a god of death, created a school called Shibusen, where those weapons could learn how to control their powers. There are also people who come to this school to partner with the weapons and wield them, those are called meisters.
In this AU, our colorful cast of Welcome Home characters are students at this school in their last few years of studies (18-23 years old) and decided to create a race to the top before their graduation. The goal ? Get their weapon partner to the "death scythe" level by getting as much evil souls as they can. Who will win ? Who knows 👀
Let's present our six duos !
Tumblr media
Julie Joyful and Frank Frankly (butterfly net)
Tumblr media
Barnaby b. Beagle and Wally Darling (big apple hammer)
Howdy Pillar and Poppy Partridge (scythe)
Tumblr media
Sally Starlet and Lucero Starlley (guitar axe)
Tumblr media
Suave Moonwatcher and Eddie Dear (shield, later on a giant pair of scissor)
Tumblr media
Nyxie Moonwatcher and Calypso O Octave (musical saw/violin)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And of course we can't forget out dear silliest, Home as Shinigami !!

Ramble :
Okay so this AU is actually over a year old, I had old designs and dynamics I wasn't 100% happy with because this AU was co created
Idk how the other creator is doing, I haven't talked to them in a loooong while, so I decided to rebrand the AU a little
Now, I'll explain my choices and lore
For one, I believe in keeping the canon personalities. So, when deciding who's a weapon and who is a meister, I tried to go along how the characters would act and what alligns with their silly selves. The characters that ended up as weapons needed to be weapons, otherwise it doesn't fit their personality to come to Shibusen to become a meister (reminder, meister can choose to go to Shibusen, weapons are kinda obligated to)
For the clothing, I just had fun with the "school uniform" concept as given in the Soul Eater and Soul Eater Not manga series.
And for the pairing, I included a lot of ocs, ik, but I wanted the pairs to truly match in energy and personality, and also I love my and Koko's oc and it's my AU I do what I want !
Joking side, here are some more funfact on how they ended up there
Julie followed in her siblings footsteps
Barnaby came to partner with Wally, the two are childhood best friends
Sally and Howdy came for fame and opportunities that come with being a meister
Nyxie and Suave where raised in Shibusen for lore reasons 👀
Julie and Wally are dating !
Frank and Eddie are a bit more on and off, because Eddie is an anxious mess and Frank doesn't like competion
But at the same time, the shipping in this AU is "yes" because : Julie and Wally are a thing, but Julie is very close to Frank, who is on and off with Eddie, and Eddie is quite close to Howdy, and Sally likes to flirt with Eddie and Poppy, but Lucero has a crush on Sally, who might have a lil crush on Julie, but Nyxie has a crush on Lucero, and Barnaby and Wally are reaaallly close
Good luck, may the ships all sail at once like it's the Vendée Globe :D
Other funfacts
Nyxie and Suave are actually weapons too, Nyxie is a frying pan (because what else would she be) and Suave is undetermined. Both are very unstable and thus can't really be weapons full time, hence why they meister others
Everyone has part time jobs !
Nyxie and Suave work at a bar, Eddie works at the post office, Sally works at a theater, Lucero works with Caly at a music shop, Frank works at a library, Julie in a hairdresser salon, Poppy and Howdy work at a little retail shop, Wally and Barnaby work in a clothing store.
They all live in the same appartement complex, all neighbors and they visit eachother all the time ! Each pair live together too, platonically.
I think that's about all I can say
This AU is a lil special to me because I love Soul Eater and the lore and ik there is probably already some other SE Wh aus but I wanted to get this out anyway and see if people enjoy my silly rambling
I posted it on tiktok already and people ate this up lol, I'm kinda hoping they would too here as well ? We'll see.

Another AU? I need to stop.
Modern Medieval Monster Mash Up
Okay, this has been stuck in my head for two weeks and I can’t get it out so if I write it down then maybe my brain won’t be obsessing over it when I’m trying to sleep!
General idea is basically FNAF x Undertale x Nimona x DND.
*cue dramatic lighting and curtains*
Cut to an opening scene where monsters and humans lived in the same land but segregated away from each other by preference. Monsters decide after being mistreated at every interaction that they are superior beings and begin enslaving humanity. Enter in the brave knights who rescue the enslaved and fight back to protect all humans. After years of war the humans create an powerful spell that casts all the monsters into a deep pit, not allowing any to escape the barrier around the top.
Fast forward a few centuries and the magic sealing the monsters in the pit is weak and when discovered by said monsters, they travel to the surface to wreak havoc, steal supplies/tech, and capture humans to bring them down to the pit as slaves. Although it is only a few groups of extremist/vengeful monsters that terrorize the humans, most have become accustomed to their life and don’t desire revenge for being locked away (monsters live twice as long as humans). The humans however, have been taught the gruesome history of the war and have done everything to have the upper hand should another war ensue. There is no such thing as good monsters.
And now you enter the story. A young knight who has fought many battles with monsters and often assist in supply deliveries between cities.
One night, an ambush happens on your route and you do everything you can to stop them from stealing the cargo but you are bitten by something venomous and decide to fight with all you have left while the others escape, knowing you are dead anyway. You defeat the monsters and sit peacefully as you bleed from wounds and take in what you believe to be your final breaths but as the world fades, a figure approaches.
Startled awake, you find yourself in modern but vintage style home, dressed in different clothing, and no signs of any wounds. After a confrontational discussion, you learn that a vampire decided to “save” you and make you his servant/pet, turning you into a vampire to do so. However, you won’t become a full vampire without drinking human blood first.
The vampire is Moon and he lives there with his demon brother Sun, (their parents were pure bloods, a demon x vampire hybrid). Moon is more vampire than demon, and Sun is more demon than vampire.
You struggle with your new life because you are trying to learn to cope with the fact that you are no longer human, that everything you were taught about monsters was wrong, and that you might actually be falling in love with your captors. Moon often tries to get you to drink human blood but you refuse and Sun is always there to protect you when Moon gets “impatient “, you feed on their blood to survive but it only lasts for so long.
What does the future hold for you?

Don't mind me just thinking about how Inui keeps his hair short when he's with Koko (notably in the future timeline) but lets it grow when they part ways (notably in the future timeline)

hanma… when he WHEN HE NGGGHHHH he’s been sooooo horrendously on my mind lately rekha it’s becoming a problem :((( spare some crumbs as the shuji expert? 🥺🤲 what’s ur fave headcanon of him? mwah love ya lots<333
omg the absolute amount of hc's i have about my darling shuji<33 constantly thinking about him so i have so many thoughts i can share hehehe—hmm the first being that he's ticklish and a giggler! i have one or two drabbles on this posted, he's so ticklish at his waist and stomach and he giggles uncontrollably when you climb onto him and pepper his body with kisses. never asks you to stop because he lowkey likes the contact and of course! he gets an excuse to do it back to you v_v
another thought i have and this one is canon in my heart btw!! is that by the time he's 28 yrs old, he's 6'6. he was 6'4 when he was 16, and you're telling me he didn't grow an inch after that?? nuh uh he's 6'6 as an adult man he's sooo big and tall<33 and he makes himself seem even taller by only ever wearing pinstriped suits. his personal favourites come in grays and beiges and faded blues.
hmm and he's always wanted to match tattoos with you<3 it's so intimate and so hot to him, the idea of his tattoos on you, his brand on your skin— or at least some form of them. sin & punishment + virtue & pardon?? YES<3 he loves the idea of being the devil to your angel, the sinner to your saint, it's so romantic.
and on that note, he is such a romantic<33 he's good with his words, knows just how to fluster you, how to piss you off, and how to make you feel like the most special person in the whole world just by telling you things. his favourite thing to repeat—and really, your favourite thing to hear over and over—is that one day, you'll both rule the whole fuckin' city together. he also gets you the prettiest, custom-made guns and blades for your anniversaries. and they match the ones he gets for himself. he loves the idea of doing this whole thing together— him and you, with kisaki at the lead, he thinks you could rule the whole world.

What If... Dick Figures was an anime?
This has been on my mind for a while.
Simply put, I've been somewhat imagining what a Dick Figures anime would be like - and no, I'm not talking about something like that little parody bit from the movie. I'm talking a full-blown, completely unironic anime series that remains true to the spirit of the original series.
That said, though... Come join me as we explore my big, impossible dreams for a Dick Figures anime!
ANIMATION STUDIO: SHAFT (Monogatari, Madoka Magica, Zetsubou-Sensei, ect.)
Whenever I think of a studio that would almost perfectly nail the style of Dick Figures, I think of SHAFT. They're known for the weird stuff: Colour palette switches, their signature head tilt, random art-style changes, and (most important for this series) use of real imagery. Seeing as the original Dick Figures series already uses real imagery at times (the Raccoon/Papa-san, Kitty Amazing, the turtle-dragon from "Traffic Jams", the genie from "Butt Genie" and the map from the Movie amongst many others) and is pretty absurd itself, SHAFT would pretty much be perfect for it.
CHARACTER DESIGNER: Koichi Kikuta (KonoSuba)
This part wasn't easy to figure out, as I needed one that would emulate the vibe of the original stick figure style without taking too much away from it. At the end of it, though, my choice ended up boiling down to this dude. His work from what I've seen is cartoony and fluent, which I think would fit just about perfectly for a series like Dick Figures - especially since the characters are... Well... Stickpeople (duh).
VOICE CAST:
Red: Yuusuke Kobayashi (Subaru Natsuki in Re:Zero) or Yuuki Ono (Josuke Higashikita in JoJo) Blue: Daisuke Ono (Jotaro Kujo in JoJo, Yukito Kunisaki in AIR, The Junker in Planetarian, Mamoru Akasaka in Higurashi, ect.) or Tomokazu Sugita (Yuuichi Aizawa in Kanon) Lord Tourettes: Yui Horie (Hanyuu in Higurashi, Ayu Tsukimiya in Kanon, Tsubasa Hanekawa in Monogatari, ect.) Pink: Chiwa Saitou (Hitagi Senjougahara in Monogatari, Homura Akemi in Madoka Magica, Kotori Kanbe in Rewrite, ect.) Stacy: Satsuki Yukino (Mion Sonozaki in Higurashi) Broseph: Yuuki Ono (Josuke Higashikita in JoJo) The Raccoon: Daisuke Ono (Jotaro Kujo in JoJo, Yukito Kunisaki in AIR, The Junker in Planetarian, Mamoru Akasaka in Higurashi, ect.) Mr. Dingleberry: Chafurin (Ooishi Kuradashi in Higurashi)
EPISODE LAYOUT
This was a bit difficult to figure out, due to the nature of the original Dick Figures series. Having every episode be the full 24 minutes would probably be too dragged out, but five scenarios per episode would make things too crammed.
However, I can picture one way this can work: If there's two segments in each episode. There's 50 episodes in total (aside from Figured Out, which we'll get to in a bit), so if we put 2 into each episode, we'd get 25 episodes of this anime version in total, which I feel like is a fair number.
As for the movie, that can be released after the final episode. As well as that, I also imagine that it'd be cool if they also adapted Figured Out into an OVA series alongside the movie meant to serve as the true series finale.
In fact... Having Figured Out as an OVA would actually work better due to potential pacing issues if it was put at the very end of the movie - and since it's only one story they'd need to adapt, they can go all out and spend as much episodes as they need fleshing out the episode from it's original montage format, so maybe we'll be able to learn more about the characters' futures.
Now for the big question: Would it be an adaptation of the original series, or a new story?
Well, I guess it can go both ways. If they want to re-imagine the series for a new audience, then I guess they can go ahead and adapt the original series. In fact, an adaptation that still changes things up would actually benefit the series most, since the original really hasn't aged the best (offensive jokes, Trollz0r literally just being the 2010s version of r/FellowKids, ect.).
That said, however, it would probably benefit SHAFT (or whatever other studio takes it) morer if they went with a new story that remained true to the original series - as long as they don't mess it up, of course (Lookin' at you, Magia Record anime - Don't think I've forgotten how dirty you guys did my girl Kuroe).
But hey, this is all just my personal opinion. What do you guys think? Do you think these ideas would be ideal for a Dick Figures anime, would you imagine it differently, or do you just think the series is already good enough on its own? Be sure to let me know in the reblogs or replies!
