FLC JPN - H BLOG POST
please don’t flag this post, tumblr
I have resurrected my tumblr for this one shot of making this requrement, but that aside, the JSP class this semester was actually a really fun one. I learned something I thought I might be really bad at, but I at least got the basics down
I remember going to Japan in new year’s of 2016, and it was quite the adventure - the subway itself is an adventure on its own! Still, I do remember most of it for its good food, because literally everything else was so expensive and 7-Eleven kombeni rice balls were a life saver. But hey, that’s one thing off the bucket list. I wish I can go back there and navigate through Tokyo with the basic Japanese grammar I know now.
Coming from someone who loves watching anime, and animation in general, I think it kind of adds to the experience when you fully understand a medium instead of just relying on subtitles, so it really does help in forming a new perspective around it!
A good number of artists I follow online are Japanese, and they don’t speak much english aside from basic phrases so learning their language offers a way to both understand them and communicate with them more effectively. There are a lot of artists I’d like to learn from, so this really does help me build a better chance of being able to ask them about their process or just compliment them for their efforts.

Squeaked out an art outside of comic pages before the end of the year. I want to practice digital painting more so I can actually get decent/faster at it. So, here’s Dakkan (with a slightly animation-y design tweak, to support more realistic/3D rendering).
