Thinking about the theme of beauty in Junji Ito’s work

About the faceless sculptures in the art classroom story violently went after faces they considered ‘beautiful’.

About how Miss Fuchi was a famous model but considered ugly. About how people feared and discarded her. About how she bit back.

About how the girl in ‘Ribs Woman’ was so desperate to have what society told her was a beautiful body that she had one of her ribs removed to get a thinner waist. About how the ribs woman kept coming back for surgery after surgery.

About how those girls Yuuma Azeri dated were so happy to hear him call them beautiful, even as their faces melted. About how he was looking past them the whole time, enchanted by something else entirely.

About how the intersection prettyboy drives people to suicide with his haunting beauty and equally haunting words. How his beauty made him an authority on other people’s lives - if he tells you you will never find love, then how can you believe anything else?

About how Tomie is a beautiful woman always competing with other beautiful women (often other versions of herself). About how Tomie’s beauty is what causes men to hurt her and other versions of her; about how Tomie’s beauty is what causes jealous women to hurt her too; about her beauty ultimately isolates her from everyone, including herself. How all that Tomie was put through changed her to the point where she was utterly divorced from humanity - utterly unrecognizable - by the end.

The Fall of the House of Usher is many things and I'm making a conscious choice to not scream about every single one of them rn, but what left me staring at a wall in tears is just... kindness. Death was kind. She gave every choice, every reason to stop. She would take these kids anyway but she also regretted having to take them like that. She cared when nobody else would, even though they kept making the wrong choices.

She's never cruel for cruelty's sake. She wasn't cruel to Lenore. She just sent a child to sleep as lovingly as she could, with kind words and kinder touch.

And I don't even know how to express the absolute heartbreak with blinding warmth among the cracks, when Death herself kneels before one man, worst man, honest man, who refused her offer – and thanks him with such respect.

Mike Flanagan, you fucking did it again. Carla Gugino, you... I don't even have words for you. That's a whole-ass masterpiece of human soul, meaning, and searching right there.

Kiss Death with kindness in the end

And when she parts

You part as friends

#i keep spinning it in my head #when you least expect it they kill you with kindness dammit #there's also a billion of other important themes here but they get more or less talked up #and i just wanted to say this #god what a beauty this story holds #the fall of the house of usher #tfothou #tfothou spoilers #tfothou tv #mike flanagan #flanaverse #carla gugino #netflix

I need to write about how Jun Wu's belief that everyone has the capacity for evil, if you just push them hard enough, torment them long enough, is directly contradicted by the entire story of tgcf, which posits that, actually everyone has the capacity for good. The misogynistic womanizer, the depraved cannibal, the man dead set on revenge, the one filled with envious resentment, are all able to do the right thing when it comes down to it. In a way, doing good is a surrender, it's giving up, it's as easy as falling asleep. And it's so much easier than letting the evils of your past dog your heels for hundreds of years. Isn't it such a release to change? To not be stuck in your old ways?

#i genuinely cheered when xl finally decides to tell hc about his past #hed been keeping it so close to his chest for so long and his inability to confront it was keeping him stuck #meanwhile hua cheng is so mutable #so able to change and learn and grow #the themes in this story are so fucking beautiful #tgcf #heaven officials blessing #xie lian #hua cheng

the thing that gets me when watching random merlin bts videos is just how much work went into producing this silly show... I'll make fun of the little blue sidhe and then they'll interview someone from the costume department going "yes the makeup took us 8 hours to put together :)" or one of the CGI guys will talk about how they spent months trying to figure out how to animate kilgharrah and I'll feel bad for ever laughing at the bad special effects. the beautiful sets, the gorgeous handsewn gowns, the music. so much love was poured into this project it makes me a bit emotional if I think about it too much

#the music. the music man.#arthur and gwen's theme so beautiful there's people going 'I want this played at my wedding'#and they are right #I also think there's great writing in it #the comedy especially but #some excellent dramatic scenes too #who did it like her #bbcm #merlin #bbc merlin #*

I'm going to hit you with the beam that makes you really want fruit gummies (there are no fruit gummies available to you)

#if i were an evil villain all my evil rays would just be fruit gummy themed i think #or maybe marine biology themed #wait no #gummy sharks #the beautiful intersection of marine biology and fruit gummy #read the tags
