HMMMMMM CHARACTER INSPIRATIONS LET'S SEEEEEE. THIS MIGHT GET LONG. HMMMM. SO READ MORE!

victor savini got his name from victor frankenstein (frankenstein) and tom savini

sidney bell got her name from sidney prescott portrayed by neve campbell and tobin bell

elizabeth williams got her name from (elizabeth) lavenza (frankenstein) and williams (irl last name of someone i know lol)

scott evans got his name from scott foley (portrayed roman bridger in scream 3), and both roger evans (sister, sister), and soul eater evans. im callin myself out!

helen strode got her name from. well. from laurie strode (her original last name was guillotine but that was stupid). and helen, the name, well--she was suggested to be my a family member back when i was still originally writing the story, so her backstory is loosely based on this family member (kind of with her permission. she'll never read this comic anyways lol). so far in the comic helen hasnt had much to do but she will. oh, she WILL.

mina carpenter got her name from mina harker (dracula) and john carpenter, FAMOUS DIRECTOR.

ricky campbell. oh boy. got his name from little ricky ricardo jr. (i love lucy) (LMFAO), and neve campbell. now u might notice the spongebob in his inspirations list... IF U KNO U KNO. IF U DONT KNOW. KEEP UR MOUTH SHUT!!!!

there's many other characters i havent made inspirations for yet, but i'll list them anyway.

roman romero. got his name from roman bridger (again from scream 3) and romero, HELLO. GEORGE ROMERO.

now let's get into origins.

PSYCHE! was originally written when i was in 7th-8th grade. so between the ages of 12 and 14. it was originally called kuroi bara (no) hana (black rose. LMAO). I WAS A WEEEEBBB SHUT UPPPPP. it was inspired by shoujo manga i was reading at the time.

victor's original name was daisuke (i would later use this name for a different character), sidney was ritsuko and elizabeth was shizuka-hime. finley was kaoru and faunty was named ZAN (he was always a cross-dresser). mina and roman were originally some rabbit hybrids that had no names. their personalities hadnt changed much.

originally, the alternate universe inside of mirrors was actually an alternate timeline into the 1800s.

there was no scott yet. no helen. no ricky. i stopped working on it that same year.

after a year or so of working on another webcomic i was doing (called pseudonym which i WILL be remaking at some point), i looked at my old spiral of black rose and liked some of the jokes so i got to work on rewriting it to be less weeby.

victor's name was changed to phillip (named after someone i knew irl), sidney was piper (chamred), elizabeth was laurie (jamie lee curtis in halloween 1978, WHICH HELEN WOULD ADOPT THAT LAST NAME LATER ON. HEHE.). i brainstormed a bit after writing a synopsis and then i got into soul eater and i was like. hmmm stein's theme is called victor. who is that? that's when i learned about frankenstein indepth and got obsessed so that's when i realised. HIS NAME SHOULD BE VICTOR!

and i got more into slasher movies beyond just the halloween franchise and all the names and ideas just came out all at once.

the story was originally called The Island of Easter Eggs (cus it was that random access humour era of 2009 y'know). i still have some old covers saved from back then. THEY'RE SUPER CRINGE SO IM NEVER SHARING IT OPENLY.

after much debate the name because PSYCHE! what's it mean? well. HAHA. PSYCHE! SIKE! U GOT BUSTED!!! MAJOR DAMAGE DUDE!!!!!! U GOT GOT!!! kinda like that. i thought it fit the plot more.

so after some months of writing the scripts, i got to work on the comic itself. had it uploaded on theOtaku (which i still use sometimes). after some time i hated what i was writing so i deleted it and redraw it all in 2012-2013. so work from 2010-2012 was gone.

thennnnnnnn after much more time i wanted the story to go in a different direction, so. i redrew/rewrote it all. A THIRD TIME! 2012-2017 was the end times. we're in the 2018-2021+ era. i will never redraw this shit again! LOL!

ok u read this far lets get into ricky backstory.

i got really into spongebob gijinka fandom back on DA in 2009. so ricky. was a spongebob gijinka originally.

NOW NEVER MENTION IT AGAIN.

NEVER MENTION WHITE!SCOTT EITHER. IT'S SO CURSED. i decided to make scott more mixed black/latino cus he looked better that way design-wise.

ricky is also mixed white/mexican, so his skin got darker too over the years.

#READ TILL THE END FOR A SURPRISE #oc #ocs #original character #original characters

@saneml I've been packing the past two weeks to move on Thursday and it put it into perspective how much of a fucking W E E B I am. I literally have too much to even list but I'll try anyway >.>

like whole entire boxes of JUST dbz toys.

i have the complete DBZ series on DVD.

I like to specifically collect Saiyan Saga Vegetas where he still has his tail.

I also like to collect any Bulmas I ever come across.

and Krillins.

I had an Usagi shelf where my Sailor Moon and Chibi Moons lived.

I had a Kakashi shelf of toys.

I had a shelf dedicated to just Buu and Mr. Satan toys.

I am currently wearing my Mr. Satan hat as I type this.

I have a Shino Aburame tattoo on my own human body. (not really merch but very weeby)

so many random pokemon knickknacks.

I have a piccolo beanie that has his ears that people mistake for a Yoda hat usually

I have like 9 inch figures of Naruto Sasuke and Kakashi and a 7 inch-ish Zoro that stand with a Barbie that resembles me and its supposed to be my two husbands and my two sons. :)

models of Goku, Frieza, Krillin, and Android 17 that you build like gunpla.

and a Naruto

so many random keychains that I make into earrings.

so many random shrinky dinks me and my friend have made over the years to make into earrings (again not merch but weeby)

MY INUYASHA AND KAGOME SHIRT THAT I WORE TO DOG TRAINING WITH MY PUPPY BROTHER ONE TIME AND DIDNT REALIZE MY IRONY AND HOPED NO ONE ELSE THERE THOUGHT I DID IT ON PURPOSE

two goku hoodies

a kakashi hoodie

a namek hoodie

a handful of naruto tshirts

a chopper hat

buttons. so many buttons.

my aunt always bought my backpack for the new school year when I was growing up, that was our tradition, and for my first year of community college I asked her to get me this vintage dbz backpack I came across at our local hobby store.

I have a Sailor Moon messenger bag for my computer

and the kicker is my ppe nge shoes. they are non-slip and steel toed. I bought a pair of eva 1 and a pair of eva 2 and then wear one of each and old men at work always ask me if my shoes are supposed to be mismatched. they were Expensive. ಠ_ಠ;;

that's just kind of a rough estimate.

Witch Hazel- Pt.3

Pairing: Jungkook x Reader

Genre: FanficWriter!Jungkook, Idol!Reader, College!AU, Angst, Fluff

Summary: There are two students in your art class with a secret: you and the quiet Jeon Jungkook. You’re a problematic idol singer, infamous for your ice cold reputation and perpetual resting bitch face; he’s the artist and author behind the viral comic series based on a certain ice queen idol. After a blowup of destructive rumors, lost motivation and inevitable solitude, you stumble upon Jungkook’s comic and find a new and unexpected light.

Word Count: 2.7k

Parts: 1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // ?

A/N: i made an unintentional dragon ball z reference at the end of the previous chapter, and now this chapter is loaded with anime references LMAO dont worry if you arent familiar with dbz or sailor moon though!💖

As you approach the entrance to the mall, you have but one wish: Taehyung better show up before Jungkook. Not because you prefer Taehyung, but because you’re terrible at handling small talk and conversation—especially with a timid introvert like Jungkook. You’d rather leave it up to talkative Taehyung to prevent any awkward silences.

Unfortunately for you, however, your wish is not granted. Instead, you spot a bespectacled boy in a bucket hat and white shirt (not a hoodie for once!) sitting on a bench and taking pictures on his phone right outside of the mall. He doesn’t seem to notice you until he looks up from his phone and you’re standing right there with a tiny wave hello. Flustered, he adjusts his glasses and waves back, but that’s the extent of your greetings to one another.

So for the longest thirteen minutes of your life, a huge gap of nothingness sits between you and Jungkook on a wooden bench outside of the mall, waiting for Taehyung to show up. The boy resumes taking photos of the blue sky and the mall itself. You don’t get what’s so photo-worthy about an ordinary sky and the generic architecture of the mall. But then again, this is a boy who also probably has 256GB of storage space dedicated to pictures of his favorite idol (one of which is his lockscreen)—and you certainly don’t understand the appeal of Snow. Therefore, you do not bother asking the boy about his reasons for wasting storage space on certain photos. You wouldn’t understand anyway.

And since Jungkook is too busy using his phone for photos at one end of the bench, you decide to use your phone to text the missing boy from the opposite end of the bench.

10:13AM Y/N “Taehyung, it’s past 10. Where are you??”

10:14AM Taehyung “On my way baby. And don’t worry, I promise I’ll make it worth the wait 😉”

As both a desired and disliked idol, you’ve been called a lot of things: beauty, bitch, babe, ice queen, slut, witch. And you’ve put up with it because you feel like, to some degree, you brought it upon yourself. But you’re wondering what you did to deserve a “baby” from Taehyung. Because the last thing you want is for someone who’s kind-of-not-really your friend to make any sort of romantic advances on you when they know nothing about you.

10:15AM Y/N “Who are you calling baby.”

10:16AM Taehyung “?”

10:17AM Taehyung “But you were fine with it the other night 🍆💦”

10:18AM Jungkook “monkaS”

10:19AM Taehyung “Wait”

10:19AM Y/N “What’s a monkas”

10:20AM Taehyung “Oops wrong chat LOL”

10:21AM Taehyung “Anyway I already told you guys yesterday that I wasn’t coming to the group project thing. I’m busy.”

He sends a screenshot of the group chat where he very clearly had said he wasn’t free. You must’ve missed that text somehow—a fatal mistake on your end because now you’re alone at the mall with Jungkook and it’s damn near impossible to talk to that kid when you can’t even relate to him. At least Taehyung could’ve broken the ice, but of course he’s too busy getting laid.

10:22AM Y/N “Can’t you fuck around later?”

10:23AM Jungkook “poggers”

10:24AM Y/N “What’s a poggers”

10:24AM Taehyung “Sorry I need at least 2 business days to cancel or change an appointment. I’m a man of my word, not a monster ¯\_(ツ)_/¯”

10:25AM Taehyung “But have fun on your date without me~”

10:26AM Jungkook “it’s not a date”

10:26AM Y/N “It’s not a date.”

At least you and Jungkook can both agree that it isn’t a date. But that doesn’t change the fact that you’re stuck hanging out with him for a few hours to “get to know each other” for your stupid art project. How are you even supposed to get to know the boy when there’s nothing to talk about?

“What’s a monkas and poggers?” you ask, because your antisocial mind can’t think of anything else to say once the spam of text messages ends.

“Oh that…” Jungkook looks back down at his phone, scrolling through the text conversation to track down his cryptic messages. “It just means like oh my god and stuff.”

“In what language?” you attempt to keep the small talk going. But from the look of Jungkook’s shifty eyes, it seems you’ve probed too far.

“Gaming... language…”

“Oh.” As far as you can tell by his brief responses, the boy would rather not elaborate further. So you let the conversation die.

Instead, the two of you begin wandering around the mall, hoping it’ll spark any sort of conversation. Of course it doesn’t.

At least not initially.

For exactly 16 minutes (you would know because you’d been checking your phone every other minute as if time would pass any faster that way), you and Jungkook aimlessly walk around the mall without saying a word. And it isn’t until a new shop fills Jungkook’s eyes with sparkles that you spot an opportunity to make something happen.

The shop window is decorated with the cutest recognizable characters: Pikachu, Totoro, Naruto, Sailor Moon, and all their friends. The boy appears to have his eye on the green dragon summoned from seven Dragon Balls. He doesn’t say anything, but it’s obvious he’s interested.

Knowing him, he’d say no if you asked him if he wanted to go inside, in fear of being a burden and wasting your time. So you find a loop hole.

“Let’s go in here,” you say. He nods, obediently following you in but keeping a safe distance. While he’d say no to his own desires, he has a hard time saying no to what everyone else wants. Sounds familiar.

The first thing you see when you walk in is the magic girl section. As someone who grew up admiring Sailor Moon, you would’ve liked to have scouted out that section for nostalgic purposes. The only thing stopping you is the hoard of weebs in that corner. Jungkook, on the other hand, goes right in.

As he joins the frenzy over waifus and body pillows, you shake your head and make a U-turn towards the section with ninjas, pirates, dragon slayers, and Saiyans. The seven plastic Dragon Balls call out to you, just as they had to Jungkook before he got distracted by pink-haired heroines. If you could have one wish granted with the magic of the Dragon Balls, what would you even wish for? There’s not much that you want, except for maybe a life you don’t feel ashamed of. But not even magic would be able to help you with that.

Sighing, you pick up a display model of one of the Dragon Ball fighters and replace his natural black hair with spiky blonde hair to transform him into a Super Saiyan, an almighty hero to protect the world.

“What exactly is the science behind turning blonde when they unleash their Super Saiyan strength?” you mumble to yourself… and the quiet boy next to you. He has a tiny shopping bag with him, so at least you know he didn’t splurge on a body pillow.

“From an artist’s perspective, it makes it easier for people to distinguish between different power levels. Especially in the comics where it’s black and white, so…” Jungkook’s rambling fades out when he realizes you might not be interested in his weeby-artist mind.

“That makes sense,” you say, still fumbling around with the Super Saiyan’s spiky blonde hair. You’d thought maybe it meant something more significant. As if changing one’s appearance could make them stronger by hiding who they really are. “But I suppose not all plot details need to be that deep.”

He nods and picks up another Dragon Ball character, the bald kid with six dots on his head, and wiggles it in your direction. “Is this the kind of anime you’re into?”

You can’t help but sneer at the random but mysterious six dots on the bald head. “This and Sailor Moon.”

Jungkook’s magic girl radar goes off when you mention Sailor Moon. “Oh, so like heroes and stuff?”

“I guess,” you answer, though you’ve never really thought about it that way. It’s not like you intentionally sought out for anything involving superheroes, but it’s something you’d always been naturally drawn to. “Though it seems a bit childish to say it out loud, doesn’t it?”

“I’m sure everyone has wished to be a hero at some point in their life,” the boy says, glancing back at the seven Dragon Balls. “After all, heroes give us something to admire and believe in.”

“Exactly.” You set the Super Saiyan back down on the shelf and stare at the glammed-up Sailor Moon beauties from afar. For just a split second, you’re reminded of your fateful decision to become Snow. “Kind of like idols, right?”

Jungkook flinches, clutching onto his shopping bag as if you’re lowkey judging him for being obsessed with not only pretty idols, but also pretty magic girls. You weren’t planning on bringing up the topic of idols because it can be quite toxic for yourself, but it somehow slipped out of your mouth in the presence of the biggest Snow fanboy. Oops.

“Yeah, kinda…” He lets out a half-laugh, but it sounds forced, only to fill another round of awkward silence as you both exit the anime shop. Great, you’ve brought up another touchy subject and now the boy’s back on lockdown. And just when the two of you were starting to get on the same page.

“I mean… I used to look up to the Sailor Moon characters… because they were my idols… my heroes…” you stumble over your words in an attempt to salvage any momentum you had built up with Jungkook. Surely this is something the weeb can relate to and not feel bad about now that you’ve exposed a bit of your dark past.

“Really?” He tilts his head and eases his grip on the shopping bag. “Who’s your bias—I mean favorite—of the Sailor Scouts?”

You assume he’s asking because your favorite can say a lot about you. Do you prefer crybabies like Sailor Moon, smarties like Mercury, hotheads like Mars, muscles like Jupiter, or perhaps the one who fantasizes over becoming an idol? “Sailor Venus.”

Before responding, Jungkook shuffles through his shopping bag and pulls out a tiny keychain of Sailor Venus with her pretty long hair and orange sailor suit. “Me too.”

You wonder what that says about Jeon Jungkook.

By the time lunch comes around, long silences still follow into the food court but somehow you feel less pressure to fill in the gaps. You’re simply okay with being in the boy’s company. Something about it is almost as refreshing as the iced tea you’re sipping on.

As you down your drink, you stare intently at the tall stack of pancakes across from you. The boy’s plate of fluffy delicacies has to be quadruple the size of your tiny salad bowl that you ordered out of habit.

“Um… do you want some?” Jungkook points to his pancakes, but his eyes are glued to your lips—probably because of the drool and not because you share the same pout as Snow.

“No thanks, I’m trying to eat healthier, and I already splurged on pancakes the other day,” you sigh. Even though you've taken a step back from idol life, you feel the need to maintain your image and health for the sake of fans who may worry about you. It’s in your blood, and sometimes you hate yourself for it. “But honestly, you’re really tempting me, you know.”

“Here.” Before you can refuse, Jungkook plops one of his pancakes onto the rim of your salad bowl. “It kinda defeats the purpose of dieting if it makes you unhappy, right? But that’s why cheat days exist~”

“That’s true.” You take a single bite of your pancake, savoring its subtle sweetness. You can’t remember the last time you found pure bliss in something as simple as pancakes without worry. “Thanks, Jung-”

You’re cut off by the fact that the boy’s stack of pancakes vanished, only leaving traces of syrup on the plate and a cute little crumb on the corner of his lips.

“Did you just inhale all your food while I took one (1) bite?”

He swallows the food in his mouth and takes a sip of his milk. “Maybe.”

You don’t know whether to be shocked or impressed, but it made you giggle either way. “You’re a funny guy, you know that?”

Flustered, the boy scurries off to dispose of his food tray. You rarely hand out compliments, and maybe this is why. It probably seems too out of character for someone like yourself, and Jungkook’s fragile little heart can’t handle it.

You punch yourself in the face until Jungkook walks back to the table. Seeing as you’ve only started making a dent in your lunch, he captures a few more photos on this phone, this time of the mall interior and food court. Then he pulls out his sketchbook.

He begins by mapping out a blank page with light lines and dots. Little by little, he adds in the tables, the people, the food. And before you know it, he has the whole food court sketched out and you haven’t even touched your salad yet.

“Are you into architecture? Or like exterior & interior design?” You don’t exactly know the proper art terms for whatever Jungkook’s drawing, but it would explain why he always seems to be taking photos of wherever he goes.

“Yeah, architecture and design are cool.” He shrugs and doesn’t sound all that convincing. So he diverts the spotlight back onto you. “By the way, I mean this in the least offensive way possible, but you’re not an art major, right?”

“Are you saying that because I’m shitty at art?” you pretend to be offended, but you know he’s not the malicious type. “Or because I’m always carrying a guitar to class?”

“The latter.” You see a tiny smirk on the boy’s face as he continues to add in details to his sketch. He’d never say it, but you can tell he’s also thinking your art is complete trash. “Is it music theory? Or just guitar? Or songwrit-”

Bing! Your phone notification saves you from a potentially loaded question about an uncertain future in music, and you couldn’t be more grateful. It’s a new Witch Hazel update from jk.seagull.

You glance over to Jungkook, expecting him to have the same notification on his phone. But he doesn’t. “I would’ve expected you of all people to have notifications turned on for Witch Hazel.”

“Really? Is it because you think I’m that in love with Snow?” It’s Jungkook’s turn to pretend to be offended. You’re glad to see him lightening up and not taking things to heart.

“Are you not in love with Snow?” you tease. Jungkook freezes and so do you. Why the fuck would you ever ask him if he’s in love with an extension of yourself? You don’t want to hear the answer because it’ll hurt you either way. “Nevermind, don’t answer that.”

You quickly skim jk.seagull’s beautiful comic-style artwork and stop at a panel of Snow and the new bunny boy character squaring up.

“But doesn’t this look like something right up your alley?” You flip your phone around to let the boy see the cute art.

“Does it?” Jungkook looks up from his sketchbook and puts down his pencil.

“Yeah, it feels like it would be more your style than realistic architecture would,” you say, although his sketch of the food court is somehow more gorgeous than the actual food court itself. “But I don’t know… You’d be fine with anything in the art field, to be honest.”

To your surprise, the boy shakes his head at your phone screen. “I’m not cut out for something like that.”

“Coming from the best artist in our class,” you say unconvinced. He has to be joking. Or maybe just overly modest. “Obviously I don’t know how you are with storytelling and stuff, but your art is undeniably incredible. And you have a lot of passion and knowledge for comics and anime…”

“Thanks, Y/N, but I don’t think that’s the problem.”

JAPAN TRIP 2k19 with Mod Elesa (1/?)

hey n’yall it’s mod elesa, lemme tell u bout my japan trip! u can find some of the photos of these events on my instagram @atel2er! i didn’t want to flood this post with pictures hehe ,,

GENERAL STUFF

went for school, study abroad trip to study visualization and simulation of “serious games” that businesses buy and use (but i dont feel like talking abt it since this is the FUN POST

may 10-26

the flight was 11 hours, p easy, i didn’t know anybody going into the trip because i didn’t go to any of the meetings HAHhaHEHA

whatever. everyone on the trip initially came off as if they had yellow fever and i was like ... i’m really not trying to interact with FETISHIZERS

turns out they were all really cool! only this one kid was a real weeaboo who was greasy and tall and a neckbeard who kept talking about being “culturally insensitive” and speaking japanese constantly to the teacher and the TA like ... ok patrick we get it you flex

i stayed in a hotel in shinjuku! everything is so small and i used the bidets for the first time and WOO chile that shit feels FUNKY on your asshole

i visited shinjuku major (kabukicho aka red light district, couple other places!), ikebukuro (THE MEGA POKEMON CENTER), mt fuji, fuji q highland, akihabara, hamamatsucho (area where tokyo tower is), HARAJUKU, and the emperor’s palace! i’m probably forgetting some places since we went to a lot of temples and shrines that were cool ...

the public transportation in japan is scarily on time.. like, by the second. they apologize if they’re one minute early and will wait until the scheduled time before they move omg

the subway stations have their own jingles! they kind of act as an alarm system because a lot of people sleep on the subway (which is why people generally don’t talk on it) and will recognize the jingle for their stop!

the crowded hours on the subway are noon and 6-8pm... like, its insane. it’s actually packed like sardines in there.

EVERYONE THERE IS SO SHORT.... i was taller than a lot of the grown men there (i’m 5′4″ or 162 cm for reference) and most people were around 5 feet tall... the only people taller than me were some kids around my age and this gaggle of japanese schoolgirls who were like 5′7+ and i was like. sis you’re 13, why are you that tall

pokemon is EXTREMELY prevalent in japan wherever you go. there’s pikachu stickers on taxis, pikachu is on ads on the subway and at the AIRPORT, pokemon go is widely played by a lot of people and so many of the people in my group played it so i got conned into playing again. i leveled up 5 times within 3 days and honestly? i’m god

anime is very normal there... i know that sounds all “weeby” but a lot of normal shops had animated mascots and there were ads for anime all over the place.

literally gacha machines everywhere i spent a lot of coins on gacha machines plz kill me

the homies in japan loooove crepes. they sold so many crepes. everywhere. just crepes. also spaghetti carbonara! and corndogs HAHAHA

the food there is so cheap but SOOO GOOD. sushi isn’t all that expensive at all?? like a set of 16 pieces is 1080Y... meanwhile that cost in america is like. $6000 HAHAHAHAH.

very humid? at all times? also the RAIN is debilitating if u make one wrong step you will slip and die (like i did! i stepped on a tile and fucking fell into a puddle! i have bruises still!)

SHINJUKU (detective pikachu day, may 10)

i went to go see detective pikachu on its release day in shinjuku! before that, i went to a couple sega buildings--

the sega buildings are 4 story buildings FILLED with claw machines holding stuffed animals, figurines, candy, all kinds of stuff. when i went, there was a lot of detective pikachu-related stuff. i saw this detective pikachu hat in one of the machines and spent 1000Y (about $10) or 10 attempts at the claw machine ... i still can’t believe i got it ... nobody was there to see it besides me and i YELLED when it dropped

i wore the hat that entire day around shinjuku because i honestly felt like god. people would point at me and go like “ah! meitantei pikachu!” and smile at me. i was a celebrity. i wore the hat into the movie theatre, i wore it through the entire movie, and when i was walking out, someone tapped on my shoulder and asked for my picture. she was all nervous about her english and was like “i love your hat. may i take a picture?” and i was like omG YES U CAN... sweet bab... so that’s the first photo of me that ended up on some random person’s phone

we waited around for the mass of people to exit the theatre and then left, and we ran into her again! she asked me more questions about the hat: “did you make it?” “no, i got it in a claw machine in the sega building.” she looked dumbfounded. “in shinjuku?” “yes.” “in the sega building? over there?” “yeees.” “in a claw machine?!” “yes!” “ah! i thought you made it! it’s so cute! i’m going to get one for myself.” “lol ok have fun”

i learned that its customary to stay until the very end of the credits before leaving a movie out of respect for the people who made it! meanwhile in america we walk out when the credits roll FHDSKFJS OOPIES

SHINJUKU (visit #2)

we went in the night time to go see the red light district aka kabuki-cho because thats where a lot of the bars are

i don’t drink so i didn’t join the people who went to the bars to get CRUNK, so i dragged two other guys with me and we walked around the red light district

I SAW SO MANY HOST CLUBS. so many maid cafes. so many bars. i saw a love hotel too... i was like... i wanna go inside... Blease... and my friends were like “you’re so weird KHEDJFSk” and im like “I WAS GOOGLING THESE IN CLASS TODAY, I DIDN’T THINK THEY WERE REAL”

my friend sean (he’s from taipei, cool guy, could read a lot of the kanji so we used him to navigate the subway HAHA) was walking with me that night and we saw this hole in the wall that had stairs going down to a peep show ... homegirl had her whole ass out on the sign... tiddies covered with caution tape ... i said MAAM?

one of the signs in kabuki-cho had a woman doing straight up ahegao with (what i’m pretty sure was) nut on her face. it was a small sign and i was the only one who saw it. i lost my shit. it was the funniest thing ever

kabuki-cho is really really dirty... like people straight up litter all the time bc there’s no trashcans around? so people throw their shit on the ground? and everyone steps on it... very seedy area, very gross, but i was absolutely enthralled with the nightlife and the blatant sexual vibes half the places had!

some dude stopped me and started speaking english saying “do you like karaoke? you should come drink with me for two hours, it’s a great price if you drink a lot” and i was like “no... i have to go home” and he’s like “come onnnn it’s a good price” and i was like. i’m not very assertive with men so i started panicking and my friend sean (A GOD AMONG MEN) started speaking chinese to him and he backed off ... i love you sean you’re so fucking COOL

IKEBUKURO (pokemon mega center)

so there’s this huge mall. i forgot the name, but it’s got like a lot of floors and they’re MASSIVE

on the 2rd floor is the MEGA POKEMON CENTER!!! i was so HYPED to go in there!!! it was teeming with people but there was just... so much stuff. all kinds of merch. they had plushies of the original 151, a shitton of really cool tshirts, a whole block for detective pikachu-themed merch (pins, socks, canvas bags, shirts, patches, hats, etc), and sooo much more. there’s a giant charizard statue when you walk in, as well as a statue of a pokestop HAHA. i was so excited and i wanted to buy so many things when i was in there bc they had stuff for all the legendaries (LATIOS AND LATIAS STUFF WERE THERE I WAS SO HAPPY)!!! literally anything you can think of, they had in some kind of pokemon print. including underwear. yeah i said it. here’s a really good article that showcases some of the stuff they sold there!

for reference, 100 yen is about 1 usd. a lot of things there were 480 yen ($4.80) or 3000Y ($30) and it was just... beautiful.

when i was there, yen didn’t feel like it had monetary value since it’s not the currency i’m used to, so i sPENT WAY TOO MUCH AHFJKDFD

they had themed cash registers with each of the starters... i cried :’)

i actually went there a second time but it was packed for a different reason. some idol group was performing on the ground floor and a shitton of girls were screaming fanchants while their jpop boys danced LOLLL. now i know how people see kpop stans ...

AKIHABARA (i went like 8 times)

this is what i like to call my birthplace

we went to the maid cafe. of course we fucking did. i got a dreamland passport and some cat ears. THE MAIDS ALL LOVED HATSUNE MIKU

SPEAKING OF HATSUNE MIKU AKA MY GODDESS, she was pretty popular in akihabara! she was also on some posters in the subway stations (across tokyo, not just in akihabara) and was apparently having some magical mirai concert???

there’s this giant tower called radio kaikan thats right outside the akihabara station that’s filled with all sorts of anime shit. i spent so much money in there. Good God. there was a furret plush for 5400Y and i was so STINGY that day i shouldve BOUGHT IT.... it was a longboi and i was like... sis!!!!

remember how i said my brain didn’t register that yen had monetary value? yeah i spent hundreds of dollars here no cap ...

i went to a kaguya-sama cafe as well on another day bc my friend joe (one of the figureine-collecting weebs) wanted to go and get a chika coaster

i went into a three floor sex shop and gave no fucks, the bottom floor was filled with bdsm shit and LEATHER SCHOOLGIRL OUTFITS and it was WILD. and these two old men were just casually browsing this shit like we weren’t both looking at whips and buttplugs in Public you know

i wasn’t fazed by a lot of the stuff there bc i read Funky fanfiction but the people i went in there with were major uncomfy ... i was like PRUDES HAJKFDAHDS i almost bought something don’t tell anybody

OKAY SO. there’s this place called super potato that has a floor dedicated to old games and consoles. they had so many gameboy advances and gamecubes and old consoles (famicom, dreamcast etc) for CHEAP. they had a gameboy color for 4900Y and a gamecube for 5600Y. a bitch almost cried. they had every old pokemon game under the sun (the original red, blue, yellow, gold and silver) and i ,,, they were 480Y. they were 480Y. that’s five fucking dollars. do you know how much collectors pay for that shit on ebay? HUNDREDS. i could’ve mass bought those and sold them and made so much cash but I DIDN’T.

that store had an original unopened copy of super smash bros melee and pokemon colosseum and i was like... wait if i cop a gamecube i could play pokemon collosseum like a true g... ((i didn’t cop))

but anyways there were a lot of games that didn’t make it to america (including mother 3! which my friend connor bought! as well as the console to play it!) and just... so many old things i grew up with ...

whenever i walked out of the super potato we’d end up in an alley where all the girls who work at cafes were advertising their stuff

i always took the flyers from the girls bc they spoke their cute english to me and i was like... i’d die for you, yknow that?

ALL KINDS OF CAFES. regular maid cafe, pirate cafe, ninja cafe (you could do that thing where you karate chop a wooden block in half), sailor cafe (as in actual ship captains), shrine maiden cafe, vampire cafe, prince cafe (for the ladies ;3), catgirl cafe, bunny girl cafe... i took all of the goddamn flYERS THEY WERE ALL SO CUTE :( i wanted to go so bad...

FUJI Q HIGHLAND (also known as the time i flipped my shit and went on rollercoasters)

when i found out about fuji-q, i told my group that we HAD to go. i didn’t want to go to an onsen. i wanted to go to fuji-q. i had to. i love rollercoasters, it’s my passion, my driving fORCE IN LIFE

so fuji-q is home to 4 record-breaking rollercoasters! u got fast boi aka jojo reference do-dodonpa; EXTREME TALL BOI fujiyama; superior to x2 at six flags eejanaika; and the steepest rollercoaster in the world TAKABISHA ... i got to ride fujiyama, eejanaika, and takabisha! the scariest one was probably fujiyama despite it being very cut and dry up for... ever ... 79 meters ... oh god ... i lost my shit on the way down ladies let me TELL YOU

FUJIYAMA ALSO HAS A VIEW OF MT FUJI AND I WAS LIK E”YO GUYS ITS MT FUJI” and then we went down and i screamed

please watch the pov videos for these rides they’re very good but they don’t convey the absurd amount of excitement i had going on these rides

anyways the fuji-q park was having a sword art online collaboration when i visited, so they played SAO music and had cardboard cutouts for them across the park... kirito’s ride was fujiyama (aka the king of them all). i forgot the other ones but those alicization kiddos were there but ion care about ALICE OR EUGEO

the first ride i went on was eejanaika which is a 4d rollercoaster, pretty epic, total Baby Ride though

i went on as a single rider so i ended up getting put in this group with these college kids! the guy i was sitting next to spoke to me in english and asked basic questions: “where are you from?”, “is this [ride] easy for you?”, “how old are you?”, basic stuff. he asked why i was in japan and i told him i was studying at waseda university, and he immediately perked up and went “I GO TO WASEDA!!! WASEDA YEAH!!!” and fist bumped me ... his friends were giggling and kept asking him to ask me questions and it was just. so wholesome.

when we were abt to get on the ride he looks at me and says “my name is soichiro. call me so-chan ok??” and i was like... “so-chan” and his friENDS ALL STARTED GIGGLIGN AND I WAS LIKE U///W///U

while we were going up on the ride, he kept yelling “JESUS FUCK YOU JESUS CHRIST” and my favorite: “JESUS CHRIST WHAT THE FUCK YOU” because apparently fuck cannot be standalone! “what the fuck you” is my new fave insult (i miss you so-chan)

afterwards he kept coughing and was like. dead. his soul left his body. so i asked in him japanese like,,, “daijobu ka?” and he was like “nai.” and i just laughed at him bc BA B Y SO-CHAN CANT HANDLE SOME SPINS

i bought a corndog at fuji-q at this place called arirang hotdog which is a korean style hotdog place??? BRUH that shit is so good but i shat myself for a good minute afterwards ... damn i want those corndogs

sadly i did not get to go on do-dodonpa because nobody wanted to ride with me and i didn’t want to go by myself >:/// still mad abt that bc that was the FAST BOI ...

also. takabisha. the guiness world record with the 121 degree drop. not even scary. BUT they do hang you there for like 3 seconds before making you go down and i was like “YALL FUCKIN WITH ME” really loud when they hung us there ... PLS watch a pov video you’ll see what i mean ...

HARAJUKU (i totally forgot abt this place OH lord)

i bought ... clothes here ...

they have all those clothes with the random english words on them so OF COURSE i had to buy one AS WELL AS a hat to match!

i also bought one of those ear hats where u press the paws and the ears move ... bts inspired that one

so many people in harajuku absolutely DECKED OUT in fashion. what a bunch of legends.

apparently wearing shirts that say “babygirl” are popular here i have no clue why ,,,, also im pretty sure i remember seeing a shirt that said “call me daddy” and i’m like. Ok Japan

half the shit in english made ZERO SENSE or was SPELLED WRONG and that was common all across japan, not just on harajuku fashion pieces LMAOOOO

deadass i went to a couple businesses (fuji xerox, nissan factory, etc) and they had spelling errors all over the place... nissan really had a placard that said “Prease do not touch” AND I CACKLED hfDSKLJF ilove u nissan

Thoughts on KH3 as someone who played the series as they came out...

Graphics

For a game that took over a decade to release, it looks exactly as good as you would expect it to.

The graphics are sublime, and the work they did with Pixar is fucking seamless. Even Sora's furfaggotry looked exactly like it belonged in the world of Monsters Inc. (Albeit in a weeby, Deviant Art sorta way.)

The most impressive display of the graphics goes to the Pirates of the Caribbean world... I was so worried about the uncanny valley being a problem like it was in previous titles, but God help me if they didn't nail it.

Gameplay

So yeah, I wasn't thrilled.

Let's get one disappointing fact out in the open: You cannot dual weild keyblades as of this time. If they decide to release DLC then that's great, but right now its not a thing.

The progressive form change mechanic was a little... underwhelming. You have to whack at things like a troubled child on crack to charge up a "gauge" in order to utilize one of a couple (two max) form changes based on the keyblade you have. Yes, they're cool, for about 5 minutes. Then they become unwieldy and you find yourself hoping for it to be over So you can revert to keyblade-classic and actually know what to expect when you hit A.

The random nature of the reaction commands is also really obnoxious. You could be trying to charge up your gauge to hit that sweet third-form finisher, accidentally hit an enemy with a reaction circle, and have to go through a whole other lengthy command cutscene before getting what you want... All the while the gauge keeps depleting. It's more annoying than exciting.

The abilities mechanic borrows a little from the other titles and is pretty much what you'd expect at this point. They do give you access to movement abilities, (i.e. flowmotion) from the beginning, and the advanced ones like hi-jump come very early on. No real complaints.

The gummi ship is back though, and this time they made it worth grinding.

Story

60-75% of the game is played out in cutscenes. And that's not an exaggeration. This is closer to an interactive movie than a videogame at times.

No spoilers from me of course, but I will say it utilizes classic Kingdom Hearts confusion. The loose strings are hot-glued together and you're left going "huh" more times than you should. Also the ending leaves a sour taste for being so cliché you'd think it came off Fanfiction. Oh and no, you don't control any other players besides Sora, and a tossed-in battle with Riku here and there. So everyone hoping to use the BBS and 356/2 crews, sorry to disappoint.

Also be prepared for a lot of deus ex machina.

In short... 7/10 (Pending updates or DLC)

Yes, get the game. It's worth it. I played it on Xb1X and was thoroughly impressed. Im working on my second playthrough now, and legitimately praying they release DLC or an update. Even something as simple as New Game + would make it way more fun, but as of now no such blessings have come. My greatest wish is that this doesn't become just a part of everyone's collection, good for one or two playthroughs and then shelved after a month.

Weeby’s Random Thoughts #1

I have a lot of random fandom HC’s that pop into my head, so I figured I’d start posting them so you guys can possibly enjoy them, lol. As always, @artzychic27 @imsparky2002

You cannot convince me that this was not how Kim and Ondine’s first kiss played out. The boy squad (Nino, Adrien, Max, Ivan, Nath, Marc) deciding to help their buddy out, and since Ondine’s favorite movie is The Little Mermaid….they decided to sing (well, Ivan didn’t sing but he held the boombox, so that counts as participation) a certain song by a certain crab to help set the mood. (from their safe hiding place, of course. If Kim and Ondine could see them that would be awkward!) It worked as intended, but Kim threw various sports equipment at them for a half an hour when they went to see him afterward so there was also that. Dammit Nino, how do you convince us to do these things?! (Your Jamaican accent also needs work)

hi! i've studied lolita (the book 1955) @ uni & just want to say it is not his nickname for that one girl! it is a term he has coined in reference to all school-aged girls (specifically those who wear school uniforms) who look like (to him!) they want to be fucked by an adult man. in the opening chapter he is on trial for his crimes and he literally describes this kind of girl to the jury, saying every class has one or two girls with this "lolita aura", so like,, it became the definitive cp term

like (sorry again) the girl he runs away with and has a sexual relationship and is on trial for is not the first girl he has abused or nicknamed “lolita”; it’s a running theme throughout and when he refers to a girl as such it is supposed to indicate what kind of girl he’s encountered - we as a reader make certain assumptions because of how he has already laid out the definition of a lolita and it literally serves as a “these girls are begging for it, how could i resist” defense

this book was HUGE and when they made it into a movie they deliberately chose an older actress to play the part of the young girl AND continued to have it from his pov so she is hyper-sexual throughout. in the movie she actually initiates a lot of sexual contact that she does not in the book. the movie became a cultural trend that initially sparked the lolita movement (not just in japan). there are a lot of essays and studies into how and why but basically it was every creepy dude’s wet dream

i’m not sure if the lolita fashion movement that exists today still subscribes to that mentality, and from the comments on that thread appears at least a majority of the girls who like lolita do not. but to act as if its origins are not steeped in cp is incorrect and ridiculous. things can always adapt and change over time and i don’t condone current judgement on lolita but really re-writing history to say “it was coincidence japanese ppl just thought it was a funny sound” is offensive.

So I’m guessing this is a response on that “I like the Lolita fashion style not book” post from last week or two ago. My research consisted on 2/3 wikipedia articles on it and what I read said the guy just internally called the girl victim (Doris) Lolita. I don’t recall anything about more than one girls. I just skimmed the first bit of the page.

When I read about the Lolita fashion movement (on wikipedia) and from comments and viewpoints I’ve seen from members of the Lolita fashion, they all vehemently deny and rebute that the Lolita Fashion movement has anything to do with the book or that it’s even sexual at all. I haven’t done a whole huge research thing on at, but, in my experience, I’ve always seem those in the Lolita fashion movement DENYING that it has any relations beside a similar name to the book. I could be wrong. Maybe it had roots in the books.

And idk, it seems more offensive to me that one would think a cutesy fashion moment has roots in pedophilia vs people hearing a word form another culture and thinking “omg this sounds fancy!!!” (anime is notorious for having random english words spoken just bc they think english sounds cool. Likewise lots of weeby english-speaking people [like me] refer to things they find cute as “kawaii")

Why you do this to me Julia

Rules: Choose any three fandoms (in random order) and answer the questions, then tag 10 people you want to know better.

Fandoms: Uuh Homestuck, Overwatch, aanddd Black Butler

The first character you loved:

Homestuck: I’d say Sollux/Karkat/Gamzee cause those three characters are what made me even read the fuckin thing

Overwatch: HANZO!! Hanzo is ALSO what even made me play the game and I love him and I main him and I have 220+ hours on his weeb ass. I love him

Black Butler: My first *favorite* character was Claude but in terms of when I started watching it and knew nothing of Claude I’d have to say Ash or Grell. Grell was really cool she was so fun and I feel bad cause everyone around her was trans-fucking-phobic and didn’t see her as a woman BUT I FUCKING DO. Also Ash was just fucking cool as all hell and I loved him but most of all I adore Claude from Black Butlers second season.

The character you never expected to love so much:

Homestuck: Eridan and Dirk.. . Eridan seemed to pompous but he’s actually adorable and I love him. Dirk seemed TOO weeby? I felt he’d annoy me but he was actually pretty cool and smart and I appreciated that.

Overwatch: -- Genji? I always thought he was cool but for the most part was disinterested but now everytime I hear stuff about him im like ‘i love him!!!’

Black Butler: Tbh? I never had I character that I was like ‘wow I like them’ Black Butler is pretty black and white with its characters as most of them I either like or dont like. Lets just go with the demon triplets as once I saw more of them in the extra episode I loved them!

The character you relate to the most:

Homestuck: Sollux admittedly he had a lot of realistic ass problems that sometimes when I heard about them more deeply they really hit home.

Overwatch: Actually, Hanzo! I liked the color blue, archery, and dragons before he was even concept art (haha). But also Hanzo is a p deep character with pretty bad depression (he’s 38 with white hairs like??) Sure I didn’t kill anybody but a part of me just totally feels for him and with him.

Black Butler: I’d have to say.. hmm.. . yikes. Even if I hate his guts I have to say Alois? He’s a cunt and I hate him to death but he and I both share mega abandonment issues and even if I hate him as a person and a character I cant deny I have a few similarities with his fears and depressive/self destructive issues. He was a well made character I just FUCKING HATE HIM.

The character you’d slap:

Homestuck: Fucking Vriska. I HATE how much the fandom adores her as if she’s some sort of example. I hate her and her ugly mug. I think she’s awful in every aspect and nobody should adore her as much as they do just UGH.

Overwatch: I’d slap Moira for testing on fucking. animals what a bitch. Also Symmetra cause I hate her ugh.

Black Butler: Sebastian and Ciel cause Sebastian sucks and Ciel is a little brat.

Three favorite characters (in order of preference):

Homestuck: Sollux, Eridan, Cronus

Overwatch: Hanzo, Genji, Brigitte

Black Butler: Claude, Ash, Undertaker

A character you liked at first but don’t anymore:

Homestuck: I never really liked Vriska but I did tolerate her at first and just figured her as a bitch but then it got progressively worse and hussie kept putting her on a pedestal and I just hated her. Develop better characters Andrew

Overawatch: I actually used to think Widowmaker was cool but then I learned more about her and saw how slutty and broken she was (her spine literally bends backwards like wtf) and just ended up not finding her as cool as I thought she was.

Black Butler: Er-- I’d have to say Angela? Angela was interesting but I hate how she became this overly ‘sexy’ dominatrix (idk how to spell that) bitch and I just got annoyed seeing her and would beg the show to make her Ash again. As even if they are the same they act a bit different and I just prefer Ash.

Three OTPs:

Homestuck: Love me some Pepsicola Im a very hard Johndave and Johnkat shipper. Mega Love those bois. .

Overwatch: I’d have to say ReinhardtxAna and/or GabexJack (NOT REAPER, GABE, BEFORE GABE BECAME EMO AS SHIT)

Black Butler: GrellxWilliam hands fucking down. I feel like William would totally see Grell as a woman as she SHOULD be and treat her so good even if he sounds annoyed with her he sounds annoyed at everyone but I love that ship so much.

I tag uh @iceyscarf and uh @m-useless

I have no friends
