People are so stupid about snakes. If there's a little black racer chilling outside just leave it alone, you don't have to kill it, it's probably dealing with all your pests for you, jesus christ

What’s up with how the dunmeshi fandom just lies about this kind of stuff all the time. It is easily confirmable information that it was a monthly series, something incredibly common in the industry.

A not weekly magazine schedule is literally common !! Especially in the seinen shoujo and josei demographics, sometimes monthly, sometimes biweekly, sometimes every two months, sometimes seasonal! Please stop lying about how Dunmeshi was some special unique creation that defies all standards of manga just to hype it up because it is so clear that every single one of these comparisons is centered around Weekly Shonen Jump (and understand that SJ has many magazines under its brand that are monthly or semimonthly). Not everything is WSJ and it needs to stop being the only point of reference in conversations like this 🤧

Sorry if this has been asked previously, but what inspired your Knackered Yet Living series? 😯

Never thought about receiving this question too soon, let alone for the first time. But, as one quote goes, "Expect the Unexpected."

|| CONTENT WARNING || Serious, (possibly sensitive to some) Grounded Life Topic

To start off, I am quite fond of "Slice-of-Life" Series, name it if you will, may it be told through forms of animation, literary selections, or real-life itself and so on, so forth.

BUT...only those that truly speaks to me. That it makes me reflect my own life in a way I understand and have experienced, thus, I feel, genuine connection in more ways than one.

"Knackered Yet Living" revolves fairly on my everyday living, may it be at the comfort of my own home, academic life, career/work life, and such, sharing some of the aspects in my life told through my beloved characters. There will also be research in case the characters are dealing with, let's say, history of health issues or traumatizing moments, better give and embed some color and differences to OCs, that is, "more character."

And perhaps, tell side stories of others whom I personally know and take into reflection of my life with them. It’s that movement of moments in life that is experienced and shared at its essence.

I love how some slice-of-life stories are short and brief, yet delivers those golden lessons from meaningful interactions. Makes one want to say "Oh darn. Seriously, this got me? Same…" Perhaps some moments of silence to grasp what has been told, no matter how repetitive it has been said. In the end, some of those lessons or interactions may be true or has happened to others and one can relate to it, some not any less different than the other in some aspects. There are also others who may/may not, can/cannot relate to it, but acknowledges those moments because it happens; it is evident.

What I am trying to point here is that I, an average person living my life as to what I have and what I am able to do, and control, still have quite an endeavor of life ahead of me, and I very much expect how there are days where it is just too tiring, challenging, and that feeling of fatigue, stress, and constant pondering on why is life is coming at me all the sudden? I am so tired of this…why must it happen? How did it get so overwhelming? What is happening? Will life get any better for me? Am I…? What am I to myself? To others? Who am I? The list of the hardest interview and life questions keeps on going. Pardon me for that.

Despite the overwhelming side of being "knackered," in more ways than one and that is normal, what does it mean to living life in general? No matter how knackered one is and it seems that everything right now, whatever they are dealing with, is not easy to comprehend, to solve, to deal with, to cope with, even bringing their spirits up may feel impossible and just feels hopeless, I say to you, there comes the time where it will be lighter again, it may not be the same as before, but the change is so much needed, thus, emphasizing healing. Then before one knows it, they are living their life again and the source of healing differs.

Someday, it doesn't come too quick, too soon, but some day, life will get better and, hopefully, more hopeful, for everyone only has, obviously, one life. It sounds cringe, I know, I cringe at it too because of how much of a questionable life can be...with others and such…but, I do hope one's life, it will become hopeful once again, and if you, ever, are feeling tired about everything, whatever it may be, I will pray for you.

I wish to elaborate further about the inspiration that brought me to creating "Knackered Yet Living," but it seems that that will be an explanation for another time. I apologize for the provision of an essay of an ask reply, but I simply told what I felt right to say at heart. It helped me a bit to express what I have been building up. The essence about life in general, and the aspects of being "knackered," whatever the reason that has formed from, it is one I would very much focus on to emphasize.

With my utmost appreciation, thank you, Anon, for the unexpected ask.
