WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL ME HOW FUCKING GOOD MOB PSYCHO 100 IS
The themes. The writing. The HUMOR?!? The character driven narrative. The ANIMATION holy shit it’s so fucking genuinely STUNNING the fight choreography the staging the lighting the effects it all HITS so fucking sweet and right.
And best of all, Reigen Arataka, the biggest Cringefail Babygirl loser bitchass Boywife to ever play the fucking game. Kinda need him tbh

Beast Squadron - Phoenix Cell, 2BBY
featuring adult Omega, the cadets from the sarlacc planet, and adult Bayrn as their resident jedi!
Thoughts, details, and individual shots below the cut:
Their squad name is from the fact that both of their big inaugural missions were related to some sort of giant monster - the cadets killed the jungle sarlacc and Omega (with bayrn's not-help) released the zillo. All the cadets have a sarlacc motif on their armor (though Stak's isn't as visible since it's mostly on his helmet), and Omega and Bayrn both have a zillo design.
Omega was promoted from pilot to fulcrum-adjacent strategic officer. The cadets are probably commando cadets (or at least CCs of some sort), so Mox (beardy) is commando-adjacent, Deke (white streak) is ARC-adjacent, and Stak (buzzcut) is a lead pilot. Bayrn is just there to fill the token jedi position lol.
Younger-adult designs:
Omega
Mox, Deke, & Stak
Some fun facts and details:
All the clones are the same height; Mox and Stak are just standing on boxes of varying heights to make the shot work
Mox and Stak got their scars in the same incident
Deke is also their squad's Tech Guy
Stak's tattoo is a thermal detonator over his inhibitor chip scar
Deke's jaig eyes are from the jungle sarlacc mission - the tattoos are a little blurrier/more faded in this one than in his younger-adult design
Adult Bayrn is here because Baby Bayrn was the only kid entirely unphased by extreme violence
Everyone except Omega has a Rebellion insignia somewhere on their armor
Omega has a Bad Batch skull (not super visible in this pic but it's poking out a bit) instead of the rebellion logo
The gauntlet/vambrace with the green stripe is Omega's only standard white clone armor
Stak is wearing a clone pilot chest box over a rebel pilot flightsuit
My original adult-Deke design had blond dyed hair but it made him look a bit too much like Rex
Omega's crossbow-bow is a combination of the nightsister energy bows, her original zygerrian energy bow, and Echo's green bolt crossbow
They're part of Phoenix Cell because Hera wanted Omega to do strategy stuff
Everyone's lost at least one armor piece compared to their younger-adult designs
Alternate cuts:
Just the clones
Individual shots

I know there are as many religious good guys as there are religious bad guys in IDW, but I think I pinned down the reason why it feels like the most prominent religious figures are all bad guys and it's pretty much due to the worldbuilding.
Maybe my memory of the comics is just really bad, but the religious worldbuilding in IDW is....kind of trash honestly. I'm not sure there's a single religion or religious custom that doesn't exist solely to further the plot along. Like, it's one thing for the Camiens to worship the Primes and that causes a lot of stuff in exRID/OP, but what does that worship actually look like? What are their holidays, customs, religious texts? What about "spectralism" which basically the only thing we know about is the Festival of the Lost Light and some hippie color coding and aura shit? Like sure, there are characters who are religious and their beliefs come into play sometimes, but it honestly feels (especially in MTMTE) more like their religiousness only exists when it's relevant to the plot and it's just kinda. Disappointing eh. Lacking in worldbuilding. Plus the more religious a character is the more it's written as their entire personality and the driving force making them evil so it just kinda made me cringe to read honestly.

100 Theme Challenge - 40. Rated
What the hell is "Rated"??
My initial idea and sketching were completely different: I rated my most 3 favorite anime characters: 1/ Afred F. Jones from Hetalia, 2/Mello from Death Note and 3/ Axel from Kingdom Hearts. Many attempts and got one sketch that looked like Afred, Mello turned into a girl >< and don't even mention Axel...
So I changed everything to this picture instead. The idea just popped in my head naturally *thanks God I got rid off another stupid theme*
My internal wall told me: "Please Smile just make things simple and get over it. It's just a children picture. You don't even like this theme". Me: "okay" *then proceed to add a robot for Near (I know it's too small to be noticed but Near's robot even has an "N" carved on one of its foot), a game DS (is that how you call it?) at paused for Matt, a donut for L, a Death Note for Light and a tiara and that ribbon (?) for Mello* God dang it Smile!!!! xDDDDDD I did manage to stop detailing Mello's clothes xDDD
*L rated 70 based on Mello's stats from DN 13 How to read. If he were to rate Near it would be 90
