people who get caught up in the “good old days” are so detached from any actual modern media it’s ridiculous. does this person just think hand-drawn animation was taken out back and shot in 1998

i think one of the biggest reasons khux has such a devoted following is bc it was released in staggered episodes over a series of several years as opposed to being an all-at-once thing. granted even people like me who came in after the whole thing was over and binged it all at once can and have fallen in love with it too but the massive amount of love and energy in the fandom that’s been around since the start has played such a huge role in that so it really creates a ricochet effect there
like just in general stories released gradually over time, promising just a little at a time, are perfect grounds for fandom culture to grow. people are more likely to focus in on individual scenes, whether big or small, instead of their mind only lingering on the big plot twist or finale etc, bc every little crumb is a feast when you’ve been hungry for a while. and the more time people spend engaging with the little things they more fall in love with the work as a whole. people make theories and comics and analyses etc while waiting, and those fanworks attract new people to the fandom. like genuinely fandoms are better advertisers than anything official sources could ever put out. when a thing is fresh in people’s minds and they’re hungry for more, and they know they can actually count on getting more, they get infinitely more excited
with most video games being an all at once (maybe twice) thing, which is understandable, and with more and more tv shows adopting the practice of dropping entire seasons at once, you don’t see this kind of delayed gratification in media delivery as often anymore. like everything has become instant and fleeting and people are very unlikely to let something marinate in their mind and process their thoughts when the next installment is right there already and they can get the answer right away
in the context of kingdom hearts specifically khux is so far the only one to do this kind of thing. khdr could have done that but it didn’t give most people enough to really latch onto right off the bat before going into a long hiatus, and then it dropped everything afterwards. imagine the theories and analyses and works we could’ve had after each episode running on limited context! i just hope khml does this right. like if it maintains steady updates, maybe like one new episode every month or two over a couple years, it has the potential to be even more beloved than it already is

Headcanon that Chris has Buck watch Paw Patrol and Buck becomes obsessed with it. While he’s recovering from injuries he watches the show.
He sends a photo of Chase to Athena and Carlos with “this you?”
All fellow firefighters get a photo of Marshall. Buck adds glasses to him before the photo is sent to Hen.
After a bit of dating Tommy, one morning Tommy gets a photo of Skye with Buck saying “saw you on the tv earlier”

While I don't have new art to post, here's some Bluey requests I made in... the beggining of the year? I think so, I can't remember! Just an excuse to draw more dogs, and the show is so good and cute!! Bandit is my favorite btw!
I tried to mix the show's art style with my own and I'm still not sure how well it worked haha

Since I’m guessing Tim’s kids are young, (like 10 or younger?) I think they should find Jason to be their cool teenage uncle and look up to him and wanna be like him because Tim would HATE that.
Tims kids only meet Jason bc while Tim may not be allowed to have any visitation rights somehow Bruce is still a trusted babysitter for the two kids and they both just latch onto Jason like he's the coolest motherfucker either of them have ever seen

I have once again made another colored in LotSDM panel based of the colored in panels of Lotus Eaters @blubblubisdead2me does! I did Patchouli this time because the way Risui draws Patchouli is SO good 🩷 I feel I got the colors pretty spot on! I showed this to some mutuals and they both lost their marbles about the reflection of the book in the mirror. The highlights still feel a little off to me, but I tried my best
