Original comic from Hark! A Vagrant

I briefly considered a roleswap AU where Cora is the one to be enslaved by the Celestial Dragons and get horribly mistreated by them but then I realized it would be over in five minutes bc if Law saw that he would literally burn Mary Geoise to the ground with ZERO hesitation whatsoever

My part of an art trade with @cluecorezz. This was so fun to draw and I am so happy with how it came out. Can't believe this came out of my hand.

I really loved the first scene of Chapter 13 of @sek-rap 's fic whalebone so I tried to make a little animation of what it looked like in my head. Originally I wanted to add in Cel at the end but this already took long enough as it is now and I didn't have the energy for it.

I'm watching Dungeon meshi

You won Tumblr, are you happy?

oh oh my god wait a minute! who do you think would voice higuruma in the anime!?

hmmm maybe Ono Daisuke he has that mature voice that would fit higuruma

Umehara Yuichirou would be a good choice but maybe his voice would be too deep

Uchiyama Kouki but he has a soft voice and higuruma is a lawyer i think his voice would have an authoritative tone to it

what types of anime and manga do you think damian would like?

Well Gleb said Damian usually prefer to read Shoujo since his life is already like a shounen anime/manga and I can definitely see the logic in that. Its clear that he uses anime/manga as a form of escapism, so normal slice-of-life stories will be appealing to him since he gets to experience normal life through the characters.

With that being said, I don't think he necessarily only likes Shoujo because of that, but rather he only like media where he can relate to characters in an environment that he doesn't have (which most of the time would be Shoujo/slice-of-life).

I once made a post (here) about how the reason he liked that manga we saw in Robin (2021) where the main character, Ren, had problems painting things "from the heart" that he personally enjoyed doing is because he was too busy following instructions to be the perfect artist his parents wanted could mirror how Damian's own paintings that we see in canon are always realistic observational drawings that lack creativity, which is something his own art teacher pointed.

So its very clear that he was viewing himself as Ren and hoping to learn how to deal with his own problem like how Ren deals with his very similar problems.

As for real-life anime/manga, sorry if you specifically wanted actual recommendation, but I feel like I don't know enough manga/anime to name, but as long as they deal with interpersonal and intrapersonal issues between characters who live different lives from him, then he would probably like them (I also like to think he would have a soft spot for anime with cute/cool looking creatures and animals)

So maybe shows like: Violet Evergarden, Barakamon, Vinland Saga, Neon Genesis Evangelion, To Your Eternity, Blue Period, Fruits Basket, Detective Conan, A Silent Voice, Jormungand, Your Lie in April, Yuri on Ice, Spy X Family, Buddy Daddies, From Me to You, Digimon, Pokémon, Astro Boy (2003), Natsume's Book Of Friends and Cardcaptor Sakura.

So, I stumbled upon a video about Adi Shankar today (that's the netflix anime exec and showrunner), and I...now feel much, much more positive about the whole thing!

What I've learned, is that Adi is basically El Donte with Vergil-drank-a-whole-Monster levels of hype&energy&perfectionism in tv series industry. The guy is clinically unhinged and deranged, which I think could fit the DMC anime tone nicely.

He has been making gaming adaptations for a long time now, and his works all come from a genuine love and care for the source material, enhanced with a special Adi TM take on the whole thing. Sadly, I've just learned of his other works, so not exactly best source for this kind of thing, but I got the feeling the guy likes to gore and darken up the source, spice it up with self-irony, and sew everything to skeleton made out of pure-geek love and obsession over the original.

He had a sort of El Donte arc in the industry, as the guy liked to come in shattering doors and expectations of 'normal' executives and investors, but he seems to have matured a little to start combining the best of fan-love and big investor money into amazing and unique works of art. He is most known for working on Castlevania series, but personally the show I learned about (and was sold on to give a watch) is Captain Laserhawk.

Captain Laserhawk is Ubisoft doing a RARE INDEED creative take on their stuff, basically they gave Adi creative freedom over every franchise Ubisoft has ever owed, and a result of that was a.... an adult show which roasts the ever-living hell out of Ubisoft, their practices and everything, with Rayman doing news-anchoring, drugs and then having an existential crisis? Oh, and also for animation he specifically commissioned a studio known for the...furry carnal desire series they uploaded to their own page.

The most bizarre thing is that Adi said he had a Ubi-lawyer follow him to every meeting to confirm that, yes, Ubisoft gave a green light to all of this.

So, uh, yeah gotta give Captain Laserhawk a watch, I wanna see Ubisoft roasted.

Mind you, Captain Laserhawk was Adi given a free-out-of-jail card on going unhinged, so he did not disappoint. His Castlevania show seems to have been loved by all fans, and seems to be much more tone-according to the series, as far as I can tell. At least, I've heard nothing but praise for that series. Also, knowing japanese studios, I think Capcom was keeping a close watch over everything, still, if Adi's previous work is to go by, then this anime is sure going to be

Adi claimed to have played all the DMC titles, so he knows his source, and I now believe that those manga in the latest anime preview weren't for show either. We also know the father of the series, Hideaki Itsuno, oversaw the anime production to some extent, so I'm sure it's going to tonally fit DMC. I also wouldn't mind a darker take on this series at all. The anime would be the perfect form to do that, too, as DMC is a world where demon incursions are a frequent occurrence, this HAS to affect the people of this setting somehow. The games can't really tap too much into that either, cause the gameplay of this series is 'bully your opponent back into hell' basically, these games are f u n, and you can't really have fun gameplay and a depressing story, the tone clash wouldn't really work.

DMC5 tried, but it is still mostly a very fun experience, the tragedy of the Qlipoth attack is highlighted only in the beginning, and the game even ends with Nero brightly lit and looking around the ruins, which works for him as a character, but the human tragedy that happened has already been forgotten by that point.

This is not a critique, I wouldn't have DMC any other way, but I DO want additional material that brings the setting down when we exit the 'sparda idiots' radius, and I feel like with Adi at the helm that's exactly what we might get with the anime. Oh, he also claimed to have been working on the anime all this time since 2018, and with his drive and obsession over every project I feel like Adi is not exaggerating, the production of that size and obsession could have very well taken over five years in the oven.

So yeah, I am now feeling much more excited for the whole thing. That's a very nice feeling)
