I love when New Wish fan writers make Dale out to be a cold, emotionless person who rarely shows his true feelings because in the canon of the show the guy is like an open book. He can't hide his feelings for shit.

Something I love about Mob Psycho is that Reigen is a fraud, but not in the way you'd originally think. He still helps people, just not in the way they think he's helping them. Any non spiritual problems he can solve for his clients, he will, and he even makes a point not to take money he feels like he didn't earn.

This applies to his mentorship with Mob; although, yes, he's using Mob's powers to his own personal gain, his original promise to help Mob learn to control his powers is still fulfilled. Mob's powers are directly tied to his emotions; and we can see that clearly throughout the series. Regulation of Mob's emotions in turn regulates his powers. Reigen's guidance is a large part of that regulation. The lessons he instills in Mob (don't use your powers on other people, your powers are just a trait and they don't make you inherently worth more or entitled to more than anyone else, and several others he learns from Reigen over the course of the series) are a huge part in putting Mob on the right path in regards to the use of his powers. It shapes his mindset and strong morals surrounding them, and this mindset shapes his emotions and power regulation. He would likely not be the same controlled and morally sound person he is by the end of the series without Reigen.

Do you ever get upset that when you whine no one seems to listen, but when people who are perfectly fine and/or literal scammers whine they get like 50 bucks, head, and a kitten?

Actually, Guzman is his spanish name.

OH YEAH some other folks pointed that out too, makes sense since it's an irl Spanish name (probably why I see it around a lot!) 😳

(normally it's a surname, I've only seen it used as a first name once in a blue moon -- but also in the pokemon world it's pretty clear that naming conventions aren't the same lol)

Misc 0312 art no one asked for but it's be annoying about sona time!!!

< Obligatory "I should have been there" art -- no shade on Amane, the line just drove the point home very well. I found this translation in a youtube video and like it better than the one on the wiki

> Old and new sketches, meme to explain how their symbolism pairs, and bonus 02-06! I had a cute one saying that "can I try rizzing you up/please please please" to Mappi but my art app ate it :(((( Please just imagine it in beautiful hilarious detail ty 🙏

Aaand one super extra cringe one but I've come this far already

Laios and Marcille queer platonic pairing of all time

Studio Ghibli-ass I don't care whether we get wedding rings and/or matching BFF necklaces I just want you in my life and even more than that your happiness trope my beloved

Your Marcille smile post is so good got me thinking bout that Miyazaki quote about improving and caring for each other

YEEEEESSSSS I love that so so much... The more time passes the more I see the Falin & Marcille & Laios trio as a queerplatonic type situation. It's so so dear to me.... I have an analysis planned about that I'd like to get to sooner rather than later, but I've been rather focused on art lately (Almost finished doing the last few tweaks before posting my graduate comic I made 2 years ago oof)... Right now my vague lineup is: Laios & Falin's differences, Laios analysis through enneagrams tritype, then this one— Laios and touch & the importance of Marcille: queerness in Dungeon Meshi

To spoil it a fair amount, something something Marcille is Laios' comfort zone in humans and she pushes him to grow more hopeful with friendships and connection, notably as seen through their relationship with touch both separate and together, how freely she gives it and how uncomfortable he was receiving it at first. Something something Dungeon Meshi is a lot about being a misfit and going against norms, and trying to understand each other both when labels are pushed onto you and overly define you and when you don't have any, showing understanding and being understood in turn, even when you're an inbetween, when you're abstract or hard to get and define. Something something Izutsumi actually plays a huge role in this too! And yk, something something platonic intimacy is lovely, casual physical affection is nice, monkeys pluck bugs off of each other and cats love to get scritches, shed the human principles that make you fear eating monsters or plainly seek out affection. Humans need hugs :) In a time and place where there are no labels available, for what you are or what your relationship is, you can still find love and understanding <33

Ambiguity in storytelling can often be a feature and not a bug. Ambiguous relationships can be thematic!! Queerplatonic relationships I love youuuu!!!!!!!!

Ambiguity is if nothing else fascinating to analyze. This one's gonna be a monster since it tackles many scenes, arcs and characters (2024 Jan me noted that she wanted to put in a huge Thistle & Falin section too?? Need to follow the scribbles I left here and there like a paper trail to put it all together again...) but I reallyyyy wanna get it out

actually it's kind of funny how people will say Alex's fatal flaw is that he 'doesn't ask for help' and that it's his determination to handle things on his own that leads to his deterioration and eventual death when his whole introduction to the present-day timeline was a very literal cry for help that simply went ignored

[thegooblet]

watching some of the kab vod and from her pov the kazam toxic yuri shit does kinda go hard…

“he helped push a narrative where caiti is a liar” girl she literally admitted to lying

[eversnark]

I used to get all offended when people called 911 a soap opera, and then I remember what's going on with Buck-Tommy-Eddie and am like yeah, fair point.

[jin-zixun]

I think if JGY was lying in Guanyin Temple he should have done a better job of it.

impromptu form of '24 retrospective where i was like i wonder if i did a vivacious cerulean / blue drawing each month? only noticed [none] for october when i got to the point i would've copy/pasted it lol

[wowa-bublord]

Your street cred’s been decimated Bubby, you’ve been too honest for too long. the moment you say you’ve eaten something that most people don’t normally eat everyone just believes you automatically bc like. Yeah. You’ve done that before. Checks out. and then they don’t even consider that you may be lying

I KNOWWWWW WHY DOES EVERYONE HERE THINK ME EATING BUGS IS A NORMAL THING I SWEAR I DON'T USUALLY DO THAT 😭
