the free online translation vs the black and white store bought translation

Differences

Online (left) Store bought (right)

With the knowledge that Araki himself is a Japanese man who incorporated Yakuza elements into his story of an Italian mafia, the relationships between his characters represent that. Specifically his usage of the word “Fratellone” for Pesci, or “Aniki” in Japanese, a title used by the yakuza for fellow members. Prosciutto never calls Pesci “Fra” in the manga or anime. I feel like this translation (left), in its vagueness, definitely opens my eyes to to why some are so adamant these two are siblings but looking at the store bought one it’s clear from the start these two have a professional relationship with Pesci adding the casual elements for himself. In conclusion propesci got sailor mooned

Wow this bun head girl keeps showing up in the Sailor V manga but she never gets named or interacts with Mina so she probably isn’t important

[ID: A digital illustration of Orym from Critical Role. He is wearing a mint green cropped tank top, white shorts and green, white and blue sneakers. He also has a thin tail with a fluffy end. He's carrying a bag of groceries and drinking a small carton of orange juice. Behind him is a rectangular background of tall city buildings in front of a blue sky. Sparkles are doodled around Orym and the city background. End description.]

It's been hot as shit lately so here's a summer-y modern Orym ☀️

This is @the Keiko haters out there.

(And yes I am venting coz this needs to be said)

I went and rushed to get the old clip of Keiko and Kotono in the variety show subtitled because I learnt Keiko was receiving some hate for landing the Sailor Cosmos role, and I think that is absolutely stupid and trash especially when no one has actually seen her performance yet because THE FILM HASN'T even been released! (NO, one line from a trailer does NOT count.)

While Keiko is primarily a TV show and movie actress, this is not her first rodeo voice acting in animation films.There was also The Magic Tree House (2012) and Anpanman: Dororin and the Transforming Carnival (2022).

Just because someone wanted another VA, possibly a more recognized or acclaimed VA to voice Sailor Cosmos doesn’t give them the right to bash the actual voice cast chosen by the producers.

Besides, people saying Keiko took the role from Kotono is such bullshit??!!!! Kotono is already voicing Usagi and Chibi Chibi, like that’s already such a big part of the film? Kotono is amazing, but at some point there is only so much on screen chemistry that can be achieved doing lines against a different variation of your own voice?!!!!!

The fact that Kotono took the extra step and said Keiko is “brave” and “thoughtful” on Twitter? You bet they all monitor the public’s reaction and Kotono is making a stance to show her support by recognizing the work Keiko has put in voicing Cosmos.

Kotono and Keiko have so much respect for each other and have a good, positive relationship! It’s very possible Kotono had a hand in Keiko landing the voice acting offer. (No, I’m speculating, there’s no source, but often big time cast members are asked for their opinion before production crew sends out offers, like RDJ had a hand in Tom Holland getting Spider-man.)

Just, fucking grow up people. Keiko shouldn’t have to apologize for a job offer she received that she’s excited and was already nervous for. Girl has so much love and respect for the Sailor Moon franchise she went and asked her live action Senshi team for thoughts when she received the offer because she wasn’t sure she should take it. She was practically gushing talking about the opportunity, about Kotono and about the live action in the stage greet event Q&A!!!!

I get being critical of her performance if she didn’t necessarily meet your expectation, but give her a chance to prove herself!

She was phenomenal and, dare I say, the best part in the live-action. She’d definitely have given 120% in her voice work, that I have no doubt!

One more Narnia connection jumped to me when we talked about the house. The kids go to another world and it’s described like: “…vast rooms that opened out of one another till you were dizzy with the mere size…neverending courtyards…it was all so dreary and so much the same.” I don’t think If have a whole college thesis but I could do an epic high school comparative essay

There are probably so many Narnia things I missed simply because I haven't read Chronicles of Narnia for many, many, years, though I read them as a kid. I'm trying to recall if there was a fantasy series I loved above all others as a kid, because I did read and like a lot of fantasy as a child!

My #1 was Arthurian shit, I LOVED the Once and Future King when I was like, 11, but strictly speaking that's not a kids' book I was just weird.

But a kids' fantasy series in and of itself, that I'm not sure. I thought Chronicles of Narnia was fine, I was too old for Harry Potter by the time it came out, I would have ADORED His Dark Materials--even as an adult I think it's pretty fucking good--but I was too old again, I had a brief dalliance with the Enchanted Forest Chronicles that was very fun, definitely read the shit out of the Dragonriders of Pern, OH! I really loved the Wrinkle in Time series. That did slap, I should reread it and see if it holds up, I think it might.

Anyway, FASCINATED by the idea that you basically put forth without saying it that Clarke read The Magician's Nephew and was basically like, "Hm, I could write this for adults and better" and honestly, she did! I wish more authors would take kids' books and make them adult books, frankly, because YA/children's books often have great conceptual worlds that are completely undermined because they are MEANT to be written more clear-cut and with simpler vocabulary. Because that's what children need and crave. But as an adult, I want the complexity, the difficultly, the confusion.

At last, Crow has her formidable """rival""", Seiren. Her ribbons took a while, and it was hard to find a good balance with the poly count- this finished image is drawn on top of a little to add finesse to some of the curves. We'll see how the actual project goes, but I'm just happy to have these two made at all (and I'll definitely make a piece with them together soon <3 ). Someday I'll be back for Mouse and Nyanko too (and hopefully Papillon also?), but for now, I should finish the Inner Senshi...! And before that, there’s Sailor Moon LGBTQ week... Also, if you're a fan of the Sailor Animamates, I strongly recommend the fanfic "Fallen Stars" by RickyRiddle on AO3- it's about the Sailor Animamates after the events of Sailor Stars! It's SFW, although there are some NSFW tie-in stories (so browse responsibly). Fallen Stars can be found at: https://archiveofourown.org/series/2837800

i have rediscovered what it's like to "enjoy" things again. To read a book and actually laugh at a joke.

[moghedien]

queer people will just see Usagi and be like "is anyone gonna romance that bun head?" and not wait for an answer

Sera Myu Gifs Before I Disappear (Edit)

It is 3:47am and before I forget that I have tumblr again, let’s drop my favorite gifs from the 2016 Sailor Moon Musical, Amour Eternal feat. The Outers... Again... Serenity help me.

Setsuna: “Let me help with your luggage.” 

Haruka: “Not mine?!”

Like the movie, our favorite family’s just living life away from duty (even Setsuna my gahd finally, the break she really needed). I love the scene before this because it’s Musical-canon that Michiru loves to doorbell-spam, I actually thought it would be Haruka.

And right after this gif, Setsuna attempts to pull Michiru’s luggage for her (Haruka Gets The Short End Of The Stick Pt. 2, refer to my Le Mouvement Finale post for Pt. 1) and immediately struggles because of how heavy it actually is, which makes Michiru both cooler and a lot scarier.

.

This is one of the scenes that pulled me into the 2013-2017 sera myu and modern sera myu in general. I used to be really intimidated of the modern cast, especially Shuu-ranus, then I saw this scene where Haruka dares try to challenge Michiru’s perceptiveness after telling Haruka to not bother their sleeping child. You can literally sense that moment of fear in Haruka...

.

But of course, she had to pout. ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!!! I am going to scream if it weren’t for Hotaru sleeping in the next room.

.

.

BONUS GIFS!!! 

This was supposed to be included on my first Le Mouvement Finale post (check that out if you want to see more Haruka getting bullied), but Pluto has me under temporal timeout from using the time gate after I keep going back in time trying to do the traditional drawing version of Undo on a line stroke.

Anyways, want to see Haruka being cute?

“I won’t forgive them!” 

-Tenoh Haruka, legit throwing a tantrum

You’ll definitely love Michiru’s response, if you haven’t watched it yet.

.

"The sea? *scoffs* You’re so funny, Haruka... We’re going LIPSTICK SHOPPING!!!”

- Michiru, about to throw hands

What I really love about the musicals is that we get to see certain sides to the characters that we don’t usually see and I’m all up for some immaturity from the supposed mature people of the group.

.

Now that’s done, I too would return to my slumber so do what you will with these gifs. I wish you all a good day and a good night..!
