I am really surprised that no one is talking about the “Labyrinths” of season 17

Literally if we pay attention it tells us about their pasts and there are some that tell us about what they were like before they got here and why their personalities, including their character development. It's very interesting if we look at it the right way.

This post is going around again and it's kind of funny because it's not even true anymore. As it turns out I really don't like reading about romance. Romance-focused stories can sometimes be fun when the romance is unhealthy and fucked up and miserable but generally I am romance repulsed. I think I just convinced myself I liked reading about romance because I really do like reading about characters, and it's pretty damn hard to read about characters without reading about romance (fucking amatonormativity beloathed).

I do still like reading about terrible violent deaths though, that hasn't changed

I was sort of thinking to myself "isn't it weird I really like reading about romance but I hate the thought of doing it in real life?" and then it occurred to me, I also like reading about terrible violent deaths and I don't particularly want to experience that in reality. So I think it's pretty normal to like reading/watching/thinking about different shit than you actually want to happen.

(from Mother Protocol au, by @herecomesthetaco)

I've been having an urge to just do fan arts of MD AUs I enjoy reading, and y'all will get those in following days. The Mother Protocol au is one I've wanted to draw fan art of for over a week now (and found the time today, finally)! my god time flies!

If you haven't - GO READ MOTHER PROTOCOL!

That one single event was pretty impactful I guess. His life and future everything flashed before him.

She so wanted an office romance. I'm glad she's living it.

(adjusts glasses) actually, knb should have been ten seasons long just to be able to see kise and haizaki go from bitter enemies to proper rivals

as a community, how attached is the dnd fanbase to traits of characters that have been around for *checks notes* 35 years

Notes game but it's for silly stuff

10 notes: I cosplay purpur based on what is in my closet

50 notes: I take all picrews you submit + 10 of my choice and I make purpur in them (they also become picrew chains)

100 notes: I answer every question in a character develpment ask list for both pur and pur

200 notes: pur and pur as they see themselves

500: I draw purpur in 3 outfits (purs pick, purs pick and the compromise)

750: I draw every shark that is submitted in my askbox within the time of the note game reaching 750

1000: purpur Vtuber model (unrigged)

5000: high detail pfp drawing of purpur (realism)

10000: I spend 50 euros to get purpur rigged

So I've been thinking... why DO you think Dungeon Meshi was so successful? I mean, I love it, but it always struck me as a kind of niche thing, like 'All Tomorrows'. So seeing it get mainstream sucess is kind of surreal.

i think these things are always a bit of a roulette but

first of all the fac that ryoko kui is genuenly a good writer of high caliber in the most basic of elements such as comedy, dialog, plot of each individual chapter and overall structure. as well as a great artist with iconic, simple and appealing designs and a good detailed and realistic rendering of the world around the characters, but those things can be a dime a dozen, what is that makes dungeon meshi truly stand out...

the autistic angle cannot be dismissed as strong bait for nerds online, it is very present and very explicitly explored to a level of humanzation and seriousness not often seen. second everyone likes it when a silly story with a funny premise develps into something bigger and more complex with deeper themes. is a nice basic trick where you lower the readers expectations by presenting the story as almost a episodical gag per chapter silly manga and then you dash your expectations by making everything bigger, more consequential and more dramatic. the suprise that causes make everyone be way more impressed with the story than they would have otherwise been had it been all serious business from the start.

then there is the fact that EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED, EVERYTHING MAKES SENSE. this manga does truly a remarcable work in presenting incredibly consistent and thought of ahead worldbuilding and lore.

and finally the fact that its a manga take on western tropes, stories and conventions in a semi western setting, i feel those tend to be particularly successful if we look at vinland saga, berserk, attack on titan, full metal alchemist, and the list goes on
