Brainstorming some concepts

[alevolpe]

Really testing how far I can push sailor moon before it's almost not sailor moon anymore.

[alevolpe]

Gonna significantly slow down art uploads for a while.

[alevolpe]

If Makoto and Ami are a baker and her doctor wife, what jobs do the other sailor scouts have?

Also what medical specialty is Dr. Mizuno in? (Dr. Kino? Who took whose last name?)

Oh, good question!

I see Usagi becoming a mangaka assistant! We've seen Usagi being quite the talented artist in canon, and she obviously loves reading manga, so I can pretty easily see her turning that into a career. That said, she might dip her toes a few times on making her own manga, but given the extremely strenous work hours, I don't see her publishing anything more than a pretty popular short series and a few one shots. She decides to stick mostly with assistant jobs.

I can easily see Rei just sticking to being a priestess at Hikawa Shrine. There's ups and downs about it, but I do believe she genuinely cares for the temple and keeping up its legacy after her grandfather's passing. Will it be her forever goal? Maybe not. Maybe later in life, she chooses to embark on a different path, perhaps being the singer she always dreamed of becoming.

Mina is all over the freaking place. This might be a bit of a controversial take, but I never really see her blowing up, as to say. She never becomes the biggest idol ever, like she always dreamed of, and that's not even from lack of trying. Some of her songs do go viral, but I just don't believe she's really cut for it at the end. She branches out and becomes a bit of a niche micro celebrity, mostly online, but makes the occasional radio and TV appearances. She mostly writes and performs her own songs and participates in popular radio broadcasts and podcasts. Still pays the bills, but won't cause her to get swarmed from just walking out in public.

Michiru has enough wealth and affluence to be able to live in luxury her whole life and the next 10+ generations to come without moving a single finger, but that's not what she wants. She just keeps on creating. Music, art, you name it. She just has an endless passion and appreciation for it. It makes her money, yes, but that's not her job really. She does it because she loves it.

Haruka.. I mean, Haruka lives in luxury as well. I think I said this before, but I see Haruka coming from an incredibly poor upbringing. She's basically as rich as she is because of Michiru and she's always very grateful and humble for her position. She doesn't become a race car driver (idk if people know how much you have to put into that career, it basically becomes your whole life and takes YEARS AND YEARS of training). I simply see her helping out her local garage shop regularly. When you're that rich, you can kind of do whatever you want, but Haruka's no slacker. She loves feeling useful and helping others.

Now, if you ask me personally, I see Ami being either a trauma surgeon or a brain surgeon. I know canonically she wants to be a pediatrician, but my Ami is a bit different. She's not nearly as apt with kids as her canon counterpart. Saeko before her being one of the most influential and renowned neurosurgeons in Japan.

Answering your last question.. I genuinely could swing either way. On one hand, Ami keeping her mother's last name (yes, it's her mother's, not her father's, idc) is very important, not only to her as her mother's daughter, but also as a form of respect and tradition to her family before her. Saeko, having kept her last name from her own father. It has become a bit of a status symbol in the medical and scientific fields, which Ami would only work to strengthen even further.

On the other hand, Kino has endless value to Makoto. In many ways, it's the most meaningful and everlasting memento left by her parents. It's a promise. A promise to stay true to herself, to be kind and to be brave, like her parents always taught her. It would be hard for her to let go of it, but it's a struggle that would die at her lips forever. She would never voice it to Ami. There's some problems that Mako will always just choose to deal with by herself.

All that said, I personally tend to default to Ami keeping her last name, Dr. Mizuno.

I think she’ll be alright 😉

[alevolpe]

hi, in your latest post about the results of the polls, you mixed up rei and mina! minako was the one who got 63 votes and rei had 60. :)

I did..

thank you for telling me, it’s fixed.

[alevolpe]

The results from my last 3 ship polls, if anyone is curious.

Makoami had the farthest split amongst the polls, with 18 votes separating them from a tie.

The poll had 173 total votes

21 people abstained form voting

85 people voted for Makoto

67 people voted for Ami

Reinako had the second closest split, with approximately 3 votes separating them from a tie.

The poll had 123 total votes

I was stupid and didn't implement a non voter option (ty anon for suggesting it for later polls)

63 people voted for Minako

60 people voted for Rei

Harumichi has the closest split amongst all of them, with an astonishing 1 vote off a tie!

The poll had 223 total votes

32 people abstained from voting

96 people voted for Haruka

95 people voted for Michiru

Poor Ami lost so hard, the senshi gonna be calling her Drake for weeks 😭

I don't get the reference, but I don't like Drake, so I'll take it as a bad thing.

Also yes, Ami lost pretty badly, but I genuinely think it was just cause she was against Mako. If she were against Rei or Mina I believe it would've been closer.

It's shocking to see how much you seem to love Sailor Moon despite hating the magical girl genre. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ok, don't put words into my mouth.

I never said I hated the magical girl genre, I simply stated that I don't like most magical girl anime, period.

The fact that I love Sailor moon has little, very little, to do with the fact that it's a magical girl anime. That's not why I love it.

If the only thing your magical girl show has going for is being a magical girl show, then yeah, I'm not gonna like it. Sorry.

Utena is not so praised and loved cause it's a magical girl show. It's praised for its powerful visual storytelling, its heavy themes and wonderfully constructed characters. That's the heart of the show.

The heart of sailor moon is NOT being a magical girl show, at least not to me. I love Sailor moon cause at its best, sailor moon is really just a character drama, and an amazing one at that. The magical aspects mostly act as a vehicle to drive those narratives and characters.

If you still don't get it, then ok, I get it. But that's on you, not me

[alevolpe]

What kind of a mother in your opinion was Queen Serenity?

Answered something similar in this post.

Thank ya.

[alevolpe]

About 2 hrs left.

If you ship them and like Ami better, vote for her, otherwise this will be the biggest gap so far by a significant margin.

You know what, might as well complete the trilogy!

[alevolpe]

I'm really loving the freedom of the new place, but I didn't know sleeping on a couch would cause such back pain so early. I never had any trouble sleeping anywhere.

[alevolpe]

🥺❤✨🌙

ok I'm actually so happy about this one hahahaha, particularly about the dress. as you can see, it isn't exactly the canon design, I switched the sleeves because I don't understand the og ones, and I like this style. My favorite parts of painting this one were the golden circles of the dress and the moon stick :^)

[alevolpe]

😱 it would've been a tie??! 😭😭🥲

Not even kidding, doing some quick math it looks like Haruka won by either 1 or 2 votes at most.

It was THAT close.

[alevolpe]

You know what, might as well complete the trilogy!

[alevolpe]

Ah, yes. I see..

Anon, that's your fault.

[alevolpe]

Have you ever thought about opening a pixiv account? You could post all your NSFW there uncensored and monetize it through fan box (patreon before the porn purge basically)

Thank you

I could make a pixiv, just cause I know it's a good place to keep a good gallery for art, but idk if I would set up the fanbox. I just don't draw enough nsfw and when I do it's really just for me, I mostly post it cause ik some people like it. (Idk how other nsfw artists do it, I feel like I can draw one piece of art and then I feel exhausted, so I lose interest til the next wave months later)

I'd hate to ask for money for something I know it's not gonna be posted consistently.

Though the pixiv idea is actually pretty good, I think I'll srs consider it. I'll check how tedious it is to start an account cause i always wanted a place when I can just dump my art separately from other posts.
