Hello there! I’m Krasy (and yes, it’s pronounced as crazy) and I am making an indie animation called Uncanny City.
When a farmer and his son discover a secret city inhabited by a bizarre array of creatures, they must navigate its mysterious inhabitants and uncover its hidden secrets in order to go back to where they came from. — Logline
Aside from that, I am a multifandom artist that likes to draw and create comics of the things that Interests me! (For example, Welcome Home!)
Feel free to check out my work! À bientôt!
buy me a ‘kofi’! ☕️

So. Apparently halfas are like phoenixes or something, which Danny would’ve really liked to know.
See, usually with ghosts if they’re forced to retreat to their cores they reform as was, but apparently, since they’re still partially living, schrodinger's people and all that, halfas have to regrow their body from scratch. At least that’s what he’s understanding from Frostbite.
But how come he has to deal with it? It’s Dan’s fault for trying to pull such a stunt! Oh, it’s either him or Vlad? Well fuck, he might have calmed down and is going to therapy in both the living realm and the Zone, but he’s waaay not equipped to raise a child except for like, monetarily wise.
Well dammit, how long will this core incubation thing last, he has his new job in… let him check which offer he accepted again… He has his new job in Coast City that he needs to finish packing for and then all the rest of the stuff to do.
What do you mean it’ll take months?! He doesn’t have months?! Urgh, fine. At least being a mortician isn’t that exciting, nor dangerous. Just hand him Dan’s core and he’ll figure things out for the living side of things. He’s sure Tucker and Sam wouldn’t be against helping, if only to try and claim favorite aunt or uncle spots.
In a similar idea to this one but rather different application-
The more liminal they are, the more Uncanny Valley they are. Fellow Amity Parkers (or at least once/twice/thrice/more dead people) sees each other as nothing wrong, looks normal.
People who never died once saw those liminal+ people looking like. Something is Not Right about these people. Mayhaps it's how they tilted their head like a damned zombie. Mayhaps it's the way they talk, how some words almost sounds like it's slurred but also Feels Wrong to even hear. Or those unnatural twitches when there's honestly no reason to those twitches. In the eyes of those who never died, that is.
Of which Amity Park is America's Most Haunted for a reason. Conspiracy theorists thought that all residents are ghosts who didn't know that they died. They're.... well. Not right but also not wrong.
Got to say, Gotham is a close second, with how many liminals there might be in that specific city due to the deaths and near-deaths and once/twice/thrice deaths of the residents.
Batman, Red Hood, Black Bat and Robin has got to be the more Uncanny of Gotham Vigilantes, just saying. The most Uncanny of the JL. Their civilian persona's too. But Gothamites think of it as normal. Metropolis tho. Gotham is a Horror City for a reason, according to them.
It’s a big day for manga, manhwa light novel releases, and we’ve got reviews for you of a number of those hitting shelves today! Romance, slice-of-life, fantasy, and all manner of series crossing these borders are on the docket. Check out our thoughts below!

‘Shadow cities’ sit on the borders of national consciousness, darkened by the stories, myths and narratives fastened upon them. They may ‘feel’ remote, disjointed, out of place or even eerie as broader national discourses cast a shadow that seeps into the fabric of the city’s being [...] Here, the shadow city becomes a reflection of simplified narratives and collective projections, where the story of the city takes on a life of its own, amplified by a darkened portrayal of distorted realities. The shadow descends upon the city in a way that illuminates a more ominous quality that seeps deep within its essence.

Just a ‘project’ I thought of (if I do have the motivation in the future I might turn it into an indie animation)
A farmer and his son stumbled upon a ‘hidden’ city filled with different Things, ranging from ‘Animals with Legs’ to ‘Puppets’ to ‘Animatronics’ to… ‘Whatever’.
So Danny is going to blame this on Vlad. Everything was going great, his parents had accepted him, Ellie is home for a while as was Jazz, Vlad was going to ghost-therapy along with Jordan to both get over apparently very bad obsession-sickness, and it was finally summer break! Which meant camping, and no ghost stuff for the first time in forever.
He should have known everything was going too well, because that’s just the Fenton luck isn’t it? So he was going to blame this entire thing on Vlad, even if it might maybe be his own fault just a little bit. But how was he supposed to know the glowing rock formation that looked sort of like a portal was actually going to do something?!
Urgh, he’s not going to deal with dimension travel, he already has to deal with time bullshit thanks to his peepaw! At least they’re all in this together and haven’t gotten separated? Ugh. This is going to be annoying.

IJN Musashi at anchor outside Hong Kong. The landmass visible in the background is the Dapeng Peninsula.
Note the forward trim of the patrol boat near her funnel. This was the vessel that carried an envoy from Hong Kong Governor Mark Young, supposedly to negotiate evacuations.
Japanese sailors later reported that British emissaries explained their boat's trim by saying it had a leaky hull prone to taking on water. In fact, it was loaded with several tons of high explosive. Shortly after Musashi engaged her cranes to take the enemy boat on board, it exploded, damaging her upper decks, destroying the long-range comms antenna and several anti-aircraft guns, and causing the turret at her stern to list to one side.
The damage looked more serious than it really was, and initial observers reported that the armored portions of the hull had been damaged, as well as the primary superstructure. In fact, the flagship remained seaworthy and capable of combat— though in an extended engagement such as the British Exile leadership had planned, the damage to her main guns and AA complement would no doubt have left her vulnerable to further attack.
Some historians speculate that the bombs were supposed to explode at the waterline, which, judging by the damage that was done to the battleship's more lightly armored upper decks, could have inflicted a wound necessitating immediate repair and possibly even one that would sink the ship. Alternately, penetrating the stern turret's magazine and causing a secondary explosion could have broken the ship in half.
Besides the pilot and purported British negotiator, both of whom were killed by the blast, seven Japanese sailors died instantly and twenty-six were seriously injured. Of those 26, one was the ship's captain and commander of the overall blockade fleet, Admiral Mineichi Koga, who had left the bridge to meet the negotiators. His injury, and the reluctance of Vice Admiral Shigeru Fukudome to order a retaliatory bombardment, kept the fleet immobilized for over an hour before Admiral Koga's passing.
