Tamatoa from Moana humanization

(I dunno why I suddenly liked him)

[parroset]

Incredibly self indulgent but here's Aaravos with a (fitting) Moana quote:

Based on the theory that his heart was taken from him during his fall.

Tamatoa

Anthropomorphism? I don’t know her.

[hortsvi]

I'd rather be shiny!

Like treasure from a sunken pirate wreck,

Scrub deck and make it look shiny!

I will sparkle like a woman's neck~

Rough crossover idea:

Giant crab invades Infant Island, steals the fairy priestesses (for sinister purpose), and the Goddess goes berserk against him (with versus Battra). Goddess and her dark twin brother corrupted God become allies, defeated the crab and the fairy priestesses are back.

Double Dated - chapter 3, in which Maui becomes Moana's willing sailing mentor. Or start reading from chapter 1 here. (New chapters get posted daily)

“What’s up, curly?” he asked her as he stepped closer to her, inspecting what she was doing by crouching down next to her and looking at the page that laid open. “Maui!” Her voice sounded a little higher than usual, afraid she’d been caught doing something illegal. “I… eh… I was practicing.”  “I can tell,” he replied as he picked up the book and started flipping through it. “Is it okay if I skip on movie night?” she asked in a small voice. “I don’t think I can learn much from watching a comedy.”  “Yeah, I’m skipping it myself,” he replied casually as he put the book down again and then inspected her knot-work, nodding towards it. “What seems to be the problem?”

More Au characters yippee

I'm alive!

Soo I want to show you more character designs before I start drawing more things sooo yeah!

Did this a long time ago. Did plan on doing her husband Daddy Dearest, just never got around to it lol.

Senpai! This one was a long time coming but don't expect him to appear much.

Those two have been done for a while, now time for new characters!

Infinite! I wanted to see if I could do at least one character with vitiligo, idk why I chose Infinite, but I think it works! It also helps to separate him from the Miitopia design.

Mewtwo! Definitely the most simple design of this post and one of my favorites.

Tamatoa... he was the hardest to do, mostly because he has five and a half arms, but I think I made it work. Btw he does have a ponytail. Also the hairclip is a reference to his Miitopia counterpart so fun!!

Shadow Milk, also one of the harder ones. But for different reasons. But also one of my favorites.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to draw the characters in existing songs cuz why not? I'll see ya later.

It's true, so eh

[takisyakandtamatoa]

STUDENT AU Tamatoa is jealous of an old friend of newly transferred student Moana

[meow-doctorsunny]

I enjoyed drawing him, but I still have an artblock

Cringetober day 29 hot villain

(It's another gijinka but shhh he's more hot to me this way)

[rubkaanchous]

Bringing variety to the Moana shipper content!

Tamatoa and Matangi >:3

*We need to make a footnote about Tamatoa being a coconut crab. What he's doing now with Matangi is what Calappa calappa crabs do. They grab their female and run away with her to a safe place or bury themselves in the sand.

I thought that since he's also a crab, let such strange things happen to him when he's in a human body. That is, the fact that he ran into the sand with Matangi to bury himself is no longer conscious, something like crab instincts <⁠(⁠￣⁠︶⁠￣⁠)⁠>

Spoilers ahead!

I saw Moana 2!

Even though the songs didn't measure up to the ones from the first movie, I thought the characters and story were better than Frozen 2.

Moana's sibling bond with Simea was as cute as I anticipated. It's very brief, but we get to see the ocean pass messages between the sisters while Moana is out on her voyage. They love each other so much and give each other gifts, but it's clear they value their time together above everything.

Moana's crew are fun characters. Loto is the resident unhinged genius, and you can tell she thrived once Motunui began sailing again at the end of the first film. She loves designing boats and modifying them, even if her timing isn't the best. Moni is all of us, wishing we could be part of our heroes' journeys and how we all would likely respond once we're in it. Kele provides a good contrast to all the positive crew members with his negativity, but rising to the occasion when the chips are down. The twist regarding Kotu and the kakamora was interesting and could provide a good explanation for why they sail around being little pirates.

Heihei has to be some kind of good luck rooster, because he's the reason Moana found the artifact that kickstarts the plot and the reason the Kakamora didn't attack them. Pua was mostly there for reaction shots, but everyone probably appreciates that he got to be part of the journey this time instead of staying on the island.

The villains of the movie, Matangi and Nalo, were interesting. Some people will be upset that Matangi wasn't a full villain, but I thought she provided an interesting obstacle like Tamatoa did in the first and was different enough from him to be unique. Where Te Ka required Maui to be the distraction while Moana returned the heart, it seemed like the roles were reversed for them when it came to Nalo. It was the humans that Nalo had a problem with, not Maui.

The ending did a good job of leaving the door open for more stories in this series, especially the mid-credits scene.

Overall, a worthy follow-up to the original even if this music mostly missed the mark.
