So, I caught myself thinking about the Nostalgia Chick's Top 10 Animated Guys ranking video, and how the result was:

# 10 Claude Frollo (The Hunchback of Notre Dame)

# 09 Prince Eric/Goliath (The Little Mermaid/Gargoyles)

# 08 Bruce Wayne a.k.a Batman (Batman the Animated Series)

# 07 Trent Lane (Daria)

# 06 Li Shang (Mulan)

# 05 Mamoru Shiba a.k.a Tuxedo Mask (Sailor Moon)

# 04 Prince Adam a.k.a Beast (Beauty and the Beast)

# 03 Remy Lebeau a.k.a Gambit (X-Men The Animated Series)

# 02 Dimitri (Anastasia)

# 01 Aladdin (Aladdin)

And I wanted to ask: what did you think of this list? Agree with some choices, disagree with others? Were surprised at the results? Do you personally find one of these characters hot? And if you were an assembling a similar list, which characters would you put in there, based on which criteria and arguments?

Lesser Known Waifu #1 - Melpomene (Hercules 1997)

My own digital painting depicting Melpomene the Tragedy Muse as she looks in the 1997 Hercules Animated Movie by disney.

She is riring Pegasus the winged horse, I made Pegasus more cartoony while Melpemone is more realistic out of stylistic choise.

Hope you like it :)

This is the first of a series of Pin-Ups where I'll paint only 1 girl in a simpler scenario, maybe 1 animal or familiar too, but only 1 human-looking girl for each piece :)

Watching Mulan and in the matchmaking scene when they're like "boys will gladly go to war for you" like yes, her friends absolutely went to war for her without question in the end, not because she was a woman, but because they trusted her.

Also the sequence where she cuts off her hair and puts on the solider unform? Becoming the dragon and protector of her family?? Makes me fucking cry every time.

The hilarious dialogue? The visual storytelling?? God this movie is so underrated

Abundant adventures await you here in Swynlake! Tales of magic, friendship, and mystery. What dreams will you make come true?

Mulan Fa (Mulan, Mulan) - As a Dragon, you know you’ve got a lot to prove, but Fa Mulan is up to the challenge! You’ve come to Swynlake to make your parents proud of you, though you’re still working out the specifics on how. No matter! Dragons never back down from an adventure and you’re not about to start now.

Polyhymnia/Polyhymnus of Hesiod (The Muses, Hercules) - As the Muse of hymns, meditation, and religion, the other Muses look to you for wisdom and guidance. That is why you’ve come here to Swynlake to find the Muse that may be here, waiting to be trained for their birthright. Will you find them, or is Swynlake a dead end?

Mertle van der Westhuizen (Mertle, Lilo and Stitch) - Dance shoes, red lipstick, and a Gucci bag, three things you’re never without. Just like your three best friends! Lately, there’s been trouble in paradise. Hello? Are you the problem, is it you?

Blitz Wagner “Krushauer” (Krushauer, The Incredibles 2) - The world isn't so kind to people like you, so why should you be kind to it? Look you're not a bad guy! You've just got some ideas for how things could be done...better. Namely, better for you and magicks like you.

Searcher Clade (Searcher Clade, Strange World) - You used to think your father was so brilliant, so fascinating, but then he disappeared. It’s not so much that you blame him, its that you don’t want to share his fate, whatever it must have been. A simple farmer’s life, that’s a good life. You can’t wait for your son to be old enough to pass the farm to him, but this is Swynlake. Does it have other plans?

Helen Parr (Helen Parr, The Incredibles) - Living as an out Magick after hiding it for so long is liberating, most of the time. It comes with its own challenges and expectations, but you’re ready to face this new chapter head on!

You know what's amusing? A lot of people talked about like, Mulan having feelings for Philip, but until I saw people talking about that, I never actually saw it.

I always figured it was Mulan having feelings for Aurora.

EDIT: Why do I keep mixing Thomas and Philip up?

OPEN MULAN STARTER

➳જ⁀➴ THE SEASONS HAD CHANGED QUICKLY and Jack Frost had visited. Bringing along with him Winter and all that came with it. A thin layer of snow blanketed the once green grass and beautiful plant life. Everything had either died for the season, or was had fell into a deep sleep. Sleep-- That reminded the warrior of her friend Aurora. Mulan couldn't help but ponder how her friend and the prince were doing. Those thought quickly disappeared, as Mulan gently pulled Khan to a stop. The warrior was dressed in thick fur lined robes and armor to help fight off Jack Frost's winter. Khan had a few extra blankets over his back to help him stay warm as well. "We should rest for a little Khan." She motioned to Khan leading him to the small creek she'd stopped them by, that wasn't frozen over so he could get a drink.

Mulan had been gathering wood on their venture so once they stopped she could easily start a warm fire. That's just what she did; building the wood up in a pile so she could light it. This took a few minutes, but once the fire was going she pulled out the food she had in one of Khan's saddle bags and started making it. The warrior had slipped off her helmet to let her long raven hair down, her helmet had shielded her face from the cold breeze that rested in the air. Her cheeks quickly turning red from the cold and a shiver running through her body. At that moment Khan grabbed one of his blankets off his back with his mouth and drapped it over his mistresses shoulders. "Khan-- thank you." She smiled at the horse how now laid himself down behind his mistress to help keep the two warm while he grazed on the grass around them.

Jia-Li was overjoyed that her bad pick-up line had work and Mulan kissed her. “Mhm, so what do you think? Did you taste the rainbow?”

“Not exactly, but I’d say it was definitely better than Skittles.” She answered with a grin. “In fact, I’m going in for seconds.” She added before she gave Jia-Li another kiss on the lips.

Meaning this in general (and not meant to target a specific work) but I think more "Sweet Polly Oliver" stories (basically the trope of Mulan disguising herself as a man to x gender restricted thing) or transmasc should explore more the aspect of being in a "man's world" for the protagonist. That is, under the assumption that this story occurs in a "historical" setting where gender segregation really is defined along the lines of Victorian Age sexism, the story should allow or force the protagonist to experience the world the way a man would. Basically characters should come across things such as toxic masculinity, and other expectations. Especially if they did not grow up in such a setting, what challenges would they face therefore if they come across those things.

just a reminder that Hawkwoman/Shayera Hol (inspired by the Justice League cartoon) & Mu Lan (based on the original Northern Wei-era ballad) have been added to my muses list!

As the leaves change to a brilliant gold, how will these characters shape the people and magical town around them?

Xīshuài Aoyun (Lucky Cricket, Mulan) - A gift shouldn't be able to hurt you. You think about this a lot as your fairy gift of Luck seems to only put you in danger. Will you be safe in Swynlake, far from anybody who knows about your unwelcome gift?

Flower Holloway (Flower, Bambi) - A Hollow fairy through and through, you never thought that one day you’d become a Town Fairy! You’ve taken the leap, but oh boy, was it more than you bargained for. Will you make it in the big city (small town of Swynlake), or will you return to the safety of Pixie Hollow?

Cat Absolem (The Caterpillar, Alice in Wonderland) - You can always go home again and when you did, you felt like you’d returned a complete person. Well-traveled, bright-eyed, you opening up your business and it’s been a blast! What adventures you can have in your own hometown!

Polyhymnia/Polyhymnus of Hesiod (The Muses, Hercules) - As the Muse of hymns, meditation, and religion, the other Muses look to you for wisdom and guidance. That is why you’ve come here to Swynlake to find the Muse that may be here, waiting to be trained for their birthright. Will you find them, or is Swynlake a dead end?

Dorothy Mouse (The Field Mouse, Alice In Wonderland) - How can you live, laugh, become a star in these conditions!? That's why you've come to Swynlake! Someone is bound to have a magical solution for your sleepy little problem.

Raine Whispers (Raine, The Owl House) - Violin strings, faded sheet music, the sound of applause in a concert hall… for so long you’ve played the perfect part, performing the role that everyone expected of you. But behind the curtain, you’re planning something – something big, something that will change the world for the better!
