🎉 HAPPY 20TH ANNIVERSARY TO THE WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO ME: THE RELEASE OF THE FIRST DURARARA!! NOVEL 🎉

[love---mandy]

So really funny story. I was really into Durarara years ago, like back before the 2nd season was even announced, the height of my love for the series was 2013/2014. And I was extremely anti ShiZaya, I didn’t get it, I couldn’t understand why people would ship two characters who so obviously hated each other (that was also at the time I didn’t see subtext, so there was a lot I missed). But flash forward like 10 years, I finally get it, and while I wouldn’t say Im super into it, I at the very least support them, and whatever it is they got goin on. Long live relationships with characters that hate each other but do kiss often.

And to celebrate my acceptance, some genuine fanart, I did draw them for a friend who shipped them forever ago, but it really wasn’t good, so I consider this my do over in a sense.

Sorry for the lack of NaLu and Katakuri I am so artblocked not even they can save me

Older Katakuri drawing

I’ve been on a bit of a sports anime binge recently, it’s honestly one of my favorite genres.

I’m finally making complete watch of Haikyu, I started back when it was first airing but fell out of it by season 2, binging it helped a lot,

Kuroko has always been my favorite and my and my roommate went back and rewatched it, and since I’m also in Blue Lock hell, I’ve been combining and drawing the uniforms a bunch

I also drew up some sticker designs for the Bllk boys too,

This is post is really just an excuse to ramble about my sports boys

When you ask your dragon slayer boyfriend things right after he gets off a train:

Thought I should post this reel on Tumblr as well! 💕

[love---mandy]

A Christmas gift of sorts to myself, the No tattoo version was an accident however I really like how it turned out so I feel the need to share it as well

[love---mandy]

Aight last thing I drew in the batch of refed drawings

I need them to kiss before the series is officially over, like I will waste away on the spot if they don’t

And if Mashima won’t let them kiss, then I must take it upon myself

[love---mandy]

Some miscellaneous sketch things that I felt couldn’t stand on their own as posts but I also wanted to share, just cause I am chained to them

I did use the hug from Tangled as a reference, cause it’s literally everything to me

[love---mandy]

Another of my refed NaLu arts, I got one more before I’m out of backlog, I’ve been sick for the past week so I haven’t drawn at all, I even missed Katakuris birthday which is my ultimate shame, I do intend to make it up tho

Since I finished Goretober Ive been lookin to draw my faves again, so I downloaded like tons of references and I’ve been goin to town with NaLu,

[love---mandy]

[love---mandy]

There are ads here on tumblr as well. Tiktok is putting warnings on videos of people who are only mentioning what is happening in palestine. Instagram is deleting accounts of people who are reporting straight from gaza.

Biden questioned the number of deaths reported in Gaza, after which the health ministry came out with a report over 200 hundred pages long with personal information on the killed individuals.

24 journalists have been killed in 21 days.

Yesterday internet and phone services in Gaza went down, due to the heavy bombardments.

The voice of the people in palestine is being silenced in every way you can imagine.

So the least you can do, is share what is going on. Use all your platforms. Even this one.

[love---mandy]

@Marxozoic: We Palestinians haven't lost hope, and you shouldn't either.

@Marxozoic: Yes, it's tough. It's the moment where "the heart has reached the throat" as we say in Arabic. But remember that it was always going to be like this, and that the Resistance is ready.

So this month I’m participating in Goretober on my Instagram so that leaves litterally no time for new art, which stinks cause I’d like to draw some more NaLu, however I’m determined to complete Goretober this year, in the meantime I forgot to post my Exceed drawings here

‘You are your father’s children’

Sorry for a post litterally from the farthest left field imaginable but I watched Prodigal Son, and what a fun time it was. I am immensely disappointed it got cancelled, but at this point I don’t even get surprised when I start a show that’s already not gonna continue.
