fantasy scenario: I make a youtube video essay called “MADE IN ABYSS CAN KISS MY ASS AND GO TO HELL”, I am doxxed and my address exposed, a swarm of angry anime fans descends on my apartment and breaks my windows; but the energy and love of the many people Liking my video, inspired by my brilliant rhetoric and whimsical yet cutting sense of humor, flows into me and makes me strong enough to knock out any of the angry anime fans cold with a single punch
Fun fact: Dimetrodon was not a dinosaur. It's not a reptile at all and is way more closely related to mammals than anything else. It's a synapsid! Dimetrodon was called a "mammal-like reptile" when it was first discovered, but then we realized that was wrong.
exactly! i've always found that super interesting tbh
When Kazuki has confronted Misaki Unasaka, it looks like he is still holding a grudge concerning Miri finding his homemade hamburger steak better than hers.
The way she dropped the bomb that she never made those patties Miri loves so much is when Kazuki realises his hunch was correct. That is, that he can’t rely on Misaki’s affection toward her daughter.
She seems to be in deep end, a Teufelskreis if you will, where she simply cannot get out. I read somewhere here that she could have/should have gotten an abortion, but if the series would like to inject a bit of reality, it seems Misaki didn’t have much choice.
But many aspects of the old law remained. So, to this day, women who want an abortion must get written permission from their husband, partner, or in some cases their boyfriend.

“It goes very deep," Ms Ota says. “When a woman becomes pregnant in Japan, she becomes a mother, no longer a woman. Once you are a mother you are supposed to give up everything for your child. It's supposed to be a wonderful thing. It's your body, but once you are pregnant, it's not your body anymore." ( x )
What if her deceased mob boyfriend refused to sign it? Or, even before she wanted to ask him he fizzled out? Blaming the mother is easy. If Kazuki will consider the situation she’s in, I hope he realises that there are some things she cannot control.
Of course, to cast away a child so easily is not the answer either. I think she did her best even though inside she was hurting. The child remembers everything she’s done for her.
Another sad news, we have lost another great artist, a woman who dedicated her life to art: Mutsumi Inomata. Main Character Designer of the "Tales Of" series and many works in Dragon Quest series.
At the beginning of her career, she also worked as an animator on numerous animated series, including Lum, Saint Seiya (for which she even took care of the illustrations for a celebratory article on the legendary "Masami Kurumada" published in the "Newtype" magazine), City Hunter. 🕊️🕊️
Reading a complete guide to falling in love (rec'd to me by @sanji-piss-hell bless up) and in the fic there is a scene where Sanji has to handle potentially poisonous fish and I was blasted with the thought: Sanji encounters the OP version of the golden poison frog and doesn't realize until it's A Problem that simply touching it can be lethal.
