if you ever want to be blackpilled on the real attitudes of europeans to the holocaust, including the members of the resistance, watch the sorrow and the pity. its a documentary about french collaboration with the nazis and the interviewer confronts a lot of former nazis and nazi sympathizers, and resistance members. whats really striking is how completely irrelevant and inconsequential anything about jews was to them. even people in the french resistance didnt resist because they objected to the genocide, they didnt care at all, they even say they didnt know about it. everyone lies on camera, evades the questions, and says they had very little idea what was happening even though the interviewer shows that cant have been true. it was banned from french television for years after it came out
Is it okay to request m!Alear with Louis from Engage? It's one of my favorite ships and I don't see a lot of art for it. If you would prefer not to draw it or don't have time to, that's completely fine! Please don't feel obligated to do this

alear has already noticed it, but he's pretending not to.
my first time drawing boy alear. somehow i dislike his casual clothes even more than the girl version (but i like louis casual outfit a lot!)
i didn't find alear's height so i imagined the usual ~175cm
“who are you? i don’t even know your name” “don’t be in such a rush. you will give me a name someday. and i live in terror of that day” / “i’m afraid to turn around. not of your anger, though. i’m afraid i’ll see nobody” / “go on dreaming. when you dream about my likeness you create it” / “when you loved no one you never thought of death” / “give her proof of her love” “shall i?” “kill her before she sees you” “no!” “then kill yourself” “how?” “let her go”
literally who is doing it like them. no one. no one. no one.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Man Suang is a movie to watch multiple times to unpack all the lies and twists and unreliable narratives, to appreciate the performances and choices that each actor makes to stay true to their character among such a big ensemble cast.
Even then, there are still nuances to catch with every rewatch (trust me, I'm on my fifth).
The lackluster English subtitle (partly due to the translator's negligence, but mostly due to the subtlety being lost in translation) certainly doesn't do the dialogues and the storyline justice.
So I think some of us, especially those from Western cultures, could do to sit down and contemplate a movie so rooted in a specific culture before sharing, frankly, insensible opinions on it.
