this chapter made me so emo about Keiichi. I still don't really get what his deal is but for him to start out as a bully and a petty rival, and then this??
boy loves his hometown so much that he literally has no greater ambition than to live and die in it. meanwhile his brother has his sights on the NHL; Rou is aiming for the Olympics. is it heartwarming that Keiichi treasures his home so much that he can't see anything beyond it, or sad that he has hundreds of photos of the same factory smokestack that he's already planning to die staring at??
I don't know. but Noda could have easily made Keiichi the hotshot rival who thinks he deserves the best in the world, but instead he made Keiichi a big fish dreaming only of his small pond.
(from Dogsred ch. 28)
#there's also the extra layer of how these chapters keep casually bringing up how fleeting this all is#19 year winning streak destroyed in a day. the winners? town destroyed in a tsunami in a day#last year's hotshot players now public enemy number one#'your dad would have been the best player on the team if wasn't for the injury in college'#it feels like everyone who goes into professional sports has to acknowledge what a short shelf life there is#you get ten good years maybe twenty and then you have to retire and do something else#keiichi's lack of ambition is kind of surprisingly refreshing. he wants to play for the local asia league team and thats it#you shouldn't HAVE to aim for worldwide recognition! VERY few people will ever get that!#but at the same time. keiichi just keeps saying 'we just gotta win our throne back' but almost everyone else around him is thinking about#what comes after that. what else they want to do.#in the last chapter keiichi looked down on rou because he thought rou was bringing down their chances of regaining the throne#but rou immediately shot back that all keiichi is aiming for is high school while he's aiming for the olympics#like. you cant BE rivals when it turns out youre aiming for different things!#anyway im rambling#its like theres some instinct in keiichi that recognizes this is fleeting this can't go that far. keep your dreams pragmatic#dogsred#manga caps#dogsred caps

I don't even need to know Eustace's backstory to get the vibe that his behavior is a result of trauma tbh. Like I DO know what his dad is like, and I'm sure Excelsius will move up a few spots on the "I want to throw them into the Thames" list when I finish Prosecutor’s Gambit, but I cannot help but notice Eustace asks for Gavèlle's reassurance a lot. It's making me really sad honestly. Like this poor kid acts SO confident but seeks reassurance too much for his confidence to be completely genuine. Eustace deserves a hug
#ace attorney#jinx plays aai#ace attorney investigations#aai#aai2#ace attorney prosecutors gambit#aai2 spoilers#eustace winner#i feel like a therapist every time i post something like this lol. alas i am just a nerd who finds analyzing fictional characters fun#actually though this makes the fact that everyone finds him annoying really sad#like if im right and his behavior is a response to trauma. that trauma response is making it harder for him to make connections#i NEED TO HUG HIM.

for the most part i think powerscaling sonic characters is pointless and theres no objective answer to most questions of who is stronger or who would beat who in a fight because the truth is that the answer to those questions will always be determined by what works best for the story being told . however. it does kinda bug me when shadow is portrayed as significantly more powerful than all the other characters and people (whether it be official writers or people in the sonic fandom) act like none of the other characters stand a chance against him in a fight or whatever because thats just demonstrably not true. i mean yeah hes the ultimate lifeform but that doesnt mean everyone else is weak and powerless compared to him
#it especially bothers me when sonic in particular is portrayed as weaker than him because like#in sa2 despite being the ultimate lifeform shadow wasnt really portrayed as ''better'' than sonic#in fact it was kinda the opposite...?#in their first meeting sonic briefly thought shadow was really fast until he realized that he was just teleporting around#i could be forgetting something but from what i remember none of their fights had a clear winner either#they just kinda came to a standstill and/or were interrupted by the plot happening#and then sonic was able to pull off chaos control first try using a fake emerald and shadow was like Wtf how did you manage to do that#and then shadow goes super for the first time and almost dies while sonic has never really struggled with that sort of thing.#and also when shadow crashes down to earth he loses his memories while sonic has come out of similar incidents mostly unscathed#and shadow also makes a comment during the finalhazard fight that sonic might be the real ultimate lifeform#like... the point isnt that shadow is better than sonic its that sonic can easily match if not surpass shadow#even though shadow is the ultimate lifeform and sonic is just some guy#and im not saying that shadow could never beat sonic in a fight or anything#im just saying its silly to act like sonic is weak and helpless in comparison when that is shown in the games to not be true

happy birthday to me (I get to draw The Boy)
spoilers(?) for aai2 under the cut

(it's not super spoilery but still)
#ace attorney#ace attorney investigations#sebastian debeste#eustace winner#aai2 spoilers#<- just in case#at most winner (or some variation thereof like wynner/wyner/wynnur) is another middle name or similar#but i can taje eustace and add that to what exists to create the sad pathetic cat of a prosecutor#eustace sebastian debeste#(which can also be e.s. debeste. es de best(e). is the best. (if you mix languages))#i do like the ideas with eustace sebastian winner but thanks to Other Headcanons his mom's maiden name is something else#anyway yeah!! sebastian is his middle name and if he has to put his name on things it's e. sebastian debeste#(tbh im down for pretty much any combination of names)#willowarts

im curious to see how we'll see how we feel about takehiro and the others' new designs when they're fully revealed but it did get me thinking about how i would design his outfit. unfortunately i realized very quickly that i would just put him in my own fashion style: department-store-clearance-core
#art#traditional art#watercolour#fanart#virvox project#kurono takehiro#vocal synth#voicevox#no id rn because i havent figured out how to translate all this to alt text yet... gimme a bit to think on it orz#BUT yeah like. well im sure their new designs will be fine. but one thing that did stand out to me. is that i do not like muscle tees LOL#and i guess it snowballed. i like fitted tank tops. and loose 90s moe tank tops. but not muscle tanks. turtlenecks are fine.#but you know maybe my walmart clearance fashion sense works for him. i always liked that he kind of dresses like some fucking guy#like his blazer is pretty slick but the rest of him is just a guy in jeans and a t shirt. and i love that#like akashi dresses like my grandpa with better colour sense. kotarou dresses like a pokemon trainer? sourin has his like#traditional modern stylish thing going on. and the mysterious fur strip glued on the back <3 and aoyama dresses lowkey kinda hypebeast#streetwear esque. but takehiro? thats literally just some dude <3 <3 <3 i do worry his new design will make him tooo trendy looking#BUT im intrigued. i think they said they're hoping to do multiple designs by a bunch of people? which i hope they can#the original designs had a very. moe? appeal. a distinct sort of cuteness and squishiness without being toothrottingly so#that might be missing from some newer designs but if we have a whole variety we can have like#a zola project situation at least. like we have the stylistic amano art all the way to the v6 glossy designs#a whole variety would be nice. but i am worried about ryuuseis hair the most lowkey. what are we gonna do without his huge bizarre fauxhawk#BUT maybe i should throw my hat in the ring.... really push myself to make more fan designs and outfits for all these characters i like#maybe i'll be able to draw something thats not just zhers clearance clothes. maybe i'll step up to gap clearance clothes. even winners??

I've never had any reason to use the poll feature but i think i finally have one.
#polls#planning#note: i wont be limiting anything to just the winner#im just curious what people find useful#or the kind of events people enjoy the most from the creator pov#i do kinda want to do something unusual or unique#so if you've seen a cool event in a different fandom and would like to see it but with mccoy also let me know!

ok, you were introduced into the fandom via ghost, same, but was it because you liked that he was hot or because you liked that he looked sad in the same way you're sad...
very important question
#both are EQUALLY VALID BTW !!#im just curious#the real winners are those who found him sad the same way theyre sad and thought he was even hotter bc of it </3#his eyes are the window to the soul yes not just his but mine too </3#like wow we are kindred spirits or something (he would hate me irl)#simon ghost riley#cod ghost#cod#call of duty#my ramblings

i love that onstage sam campbell is this intense bombastic character and then offstage anything you read/hear about him is like he’s a woodland nymph that only eats leaves off trees and uses a flip phone and tries not to order delivery bc delivery apps don’t treat their riders well. and also he’s best friends with jimmy carr. Who are you




#sam campbell#anticipating netflix special then a couple more tours then radio silence then a deeply bizarre hilarious fiction series drops#and everyone’s like That sam campbell???? edinburgh and micf winner sam campbell???#the effect this man has. im not even just talking the perrier and micf im talking like. alex horne saying he didn’t believe in ‘funny bones’#(as in someone who’s naturally funny) but he thinks sams got a funny bone#im talking greg stopping the show to tell sam a story about his own life bc he was convinced sam would have something funny to say about it

i genuinely do believe i have a pretty good memory when it comes to learning things. ive read many books all the way through 1 time and managed to recall 90% of the events when telling it to someone. i remember facts from classes i took years ago. most of my memory is spent on things that dont matter,
however i also constantly lose things that are all within a room the size of a matchbox with a total of 5 surfaces to put things on or in
#just did a mad dash looking around my room for a book i could recite to you like a ghost story#however despite holding it THE DAY BEFORE i could not remember where i put it. and while looking for it i found something else i also lost.#im a winner today surely

Does everyone in Hazbin Hotel /need/ to be redeemed?
I was thinking, and heaven and getting redeemed is a great goal I guess but at the same time it feels like one of those goals you have when you're a child and don't know any better. Like, heaven is the perfect life filled with fame and fortune we all have at some point in our lives, but what about personal heaven?
What if Husk or Angel realize that their version of "heaven" is staying in hell and continuing to help with the hotel?
Not everyone can reach or wants to reach the pearly gates, but what about instead making their own version where they're happy even if they aren't among the winners?
Once you've been redeemed, what then? What if you realize you hate it? Realize that, life in heaven is not what you expected but now you have to deal with it? Or if you feel guilty that you were redeemed but your best friend wasn't?
#hazbin hotel#hi its 4am and im overthinking everything#will there be a seperation between the winners and the redeemed?#like; oh you were in hell for a bit? thats cute I went to heaven since the moment i died!#are there babies in hell? or like any kids younger than like 13? is there a hell orphanage?#did i mention im not religious? if there is a hell ive come to terms with going there tbh. i beleive much more in reincarnation.#i hope i become something cool in my next life#like a lion or a barnacle
