Extremely cute comic. The text next to Roger took entirely too long to obtain. Been having a bad string of luck with Google Keep in general.

Cleaned & Original under the cut.

If you know Japanese and retranslate this, get in contact with me with your translation and I'll update this.

The tree was surprisingly not difficult at all to redraw.

Nothing interesting with the translation today.

Honestly, you don't even need to understand Japanese; as long as you can recognize the characters and send them to me so I don't need to spend hours picking them apart, get in contact with me (lol).

Are people really defending this run-of-the-mill anti-woke YouTuber just because Illymation wanted him reported for his reaction video to ‘Perks of Being the Fat Kid’??

[zincsishere]

Imagine telling your fans to harass someone and ruining the livelihood because you can’t handle any kind of criticism and blocking comments that didn’t even even had a single hurtful thing to say to you

( horrible English I’m sorry for that )

( you don’t understand anything that I said please and tell me and I’ll rephrase )

( no this is not to send harassment towards her this is to hold her actions accountable )

[luaminesce]

So folks are harassing Ilymation for... -checks notes- calling out an anti-woke commentary YTber for harassment and talking about diet culture...?

Can people not be awful for five fucking seconds!?

My Animation & Clean Up reel for this year! Not looking for any work at the time of posting this, but thought it'd be nice to have this up to sorta showcase my stuff here!

we need hbomberguy to do a fatphobia video for society to heal

[cherrytea556]

So, these exist

Even if Illy turns out to be shitty, I want you guys to know that TBYS is shitty too in different ways. If this gets more attention to the online public, I don't want anyone d riding TBYS like his fanbase does on a daily basis. Just because someone got done wrong doesn't make them a good person of all sudden, it's the online equivalent to a bad person dying and people saying they were a good person this whole time just because their dead.

So like the Illymation drama????

vile take I support illy like fully I don’t get the people who don’t rn

So like ok ok don’t get me wrong, illy isn’t like perfect 100% by any means but who is??? That one carrot and chocolate thing she said in her video could have been worded better but cmon, it’s really not that big of a deal, for the most part you out understand what she was saying. The video that TBYS posted wasn’t “criticism” the way that people are trying to say it was. People are trying to play it off as just a normal constructive criticism video, but if your “constructive criticism” includes like two whole minutes of making fun of someone’s appearance for no reason, I’m concerned. Illy’s response was a bit immature, but I understand where she’s coming from. She said not to send hate and to just take down that one video, not his whole platform, because it was damaging her reputation and mental health because TBYS never even tried to make a statement telling people not to harass illy and she got sent hate for it. People are blowing it way out of proportion saying she was trying to “deplatform him” when she just wanted one video taken down because it was causing her to be deplatformed, and she never even talked about it to her actual YouTube audience, just the small community on tumblr, then TBYS made two more hate filled videos and people just kept dog piling on her. If your gonna get mad at someone for “deplatforming” a known homophobe and transphobe, maybe practice what you preach. And alongside that, I know that some sources were shown in TBYS’s original videos, but there were no links in the descriptions, and absolutely nothing in any of the response videos I’ve seen. There was one video I saw just speculating that all of her doctors were dumb and lied to her, and TBYS also said that most doctors that specialize and make money from being good at nutrition were just wrong. Also, that one response video I mentioned tried to claim gym bros were better at health than licensed professionals???????? It just feels like this is all a massive, overblown hate campaign to a creator because of mistakes. There’s a difference between constructive criticism and just making fun of someone, and while some things that TBYS said were understandable, he made a point to straight up make fun of illy in the middle of his video, not even attempt to stop his fans from harassing illy, then when she replied (and barley received any backlash mind you), he blew up making more videos sending more and more hate and trying to ruin illy’s career. I know illy could have clarified that one point in her video and acted more maturely about the situation, but people are entirely overlooking the fact that TBYS was no where near “perfect” in this situation. (Also, final note, yes, you can absolutely be fat and healthy, saying otherwise is just wrong and makes no sense. Do your research before making half hour long videos making fun of someone)

I assume this drama will just die eventually and people will move on, but either way, I’m going to continue watching and supporting Illy no matter what. She’s a fantastic content creator, and when that video first came out (and there wasn’t some dude bro on the internet telling me it was bad) I absolutely loved at and had a great time watching it. It made me feel really good about myself (since I’ve been exercising daily and been working on myself a lot, but I’ve seen little to no weight loss despite eating healthy and going on a calorie deficit and working hard. It turns out I have something up with my thyroid, and along with that, part of it is just genetics.) I’d started feeling really bad and was trying to eat the bare minimum and it was making it harder to work out and I was feeling sick all the time. One day I was staying home because I felt sick, and I watched illy’s video. It’s not like one video is going to fix my relationship with food, but it has helped. I’m still not losing weight, but I’m getting stronger, feeling better, and eating healthier. Despite all this drama, illy’s videos have helped me feel more comfortable being myself and I will continue supporting her. And Illy, if you’re (somehow) seeing this, just know that there are some people that want to see you fail, but there are so so many more people that love you and your content.

ever wanted to visit troy, @illymation? :>

This one is just great. The implication that the bed has an actual mattress and not, like, a brick just to make the instant kill suck even more. And of course, it's extremely cute.

Cleaned & untranslated comics under the cut.

Had some fun (tm) with the stamp tool. I'm almost glad that the words in the second panel didn't translate, because redrawing that would have been terrifying... Fun too, though.

Nothing interesting to say translation wise. The characters next to Testament's friend [ 寝技 ] translated as [ sleeping pills ] or [ pinning technique, lie down (through skill) ]. I went with the pinning technique since that's easier to make into something funny in English.

apologies if this doesn’t fit your policies, but what are your thoughts on the ilymation drama? i tried to make sense of but it’s hard without delving into seeing fatphobic rhetoric due to the nature of her original video and how most people that discuss it don’t seem to understand the nature of fatphobia as a whole. but what do you think of it?

I don't remember if I watched her original video or not but my understanding of the situation is she made a video and people were responding to it and she was using the DMCA system to strike down videos.

Given the typical nature of people that would be upset enough to do a response video to an animation I can imagine its a lot of fatphobia, diet culture and pop science defending. 🙄

The crux of the issue is that she's not a commentator by nature so it probably feels very violating to have someone take your personal video and have someone be a clown about it under the guise of a "response". So I understand the instinct to protect your content. However unlike YouTube itself, the user base does not fuck around over trying to protect fairuse. Which has more and more self righteous fatphobes responding. I'm sure they are especially nasty if they think the response was 'correct' and her original was body positive.

It is fairuse to make a 'response' to the original video. It is an abuse of the take down system to flag those videos. And she doesn't have the skill set to navigate this frustrating situation because she is not a content creator that gets into fights or has people come after her normally. My heart goes out to her, I have seen other work from her, she's very personal, raw and vulnerable.

It probably felt like someone punched her in the heart. She wanted to protect herself and made the wrong choice. Now everyone is being assholes.
