The interview is so funny to me because it’s basically just Iga telling Kojima to make the men sluttier and her being like ummm.. okay?!? 😅

Also leather barbarian vibes + space freighter captain reads like a fashion disaster but also something that might go over well at the gay bar

ok so like i hope its not just me but how did they figure out that alucard wouldnt blow up when he went into the sunlight according to castlevania lore theres like 1 (not exact) dhampir ever and its him and this is something ive been thinking about and i think it would be stressful like you wakeup and your baby who ur not sure would blow up in the sun is gone and the window is open and ur think Fuck did he blow up in the sun but hes just outside and eating a flower 💐 thats what i think anyways

Added a few updates!

A List of my Favourite ‘Gothic’ Media

Google Docs Link

Last Updated: November 23rd, 2024

My preference to gothic aesthetic is mostly victorian goth. Hence, this is what the list will consist of with some outliers. This is not a list of every good gothic media out there, it’s just the ones I have consumed and truly make me feel like I’ve transported into that world.

This list is very selective and subjective. It doesn’t always follow the textbook or culturally accepted meaning of 'goth’. It is mostly about the vibe, aesthetic, feelings and motifs that are associated with a beautiful, melancholic and mystical story.

Feel free to submit me ideas for the list, or add your own in reblogs/comments and I will keep updating this post as I consume more of said media =D

*The titles in italics are not exactly gothic but give the same melancholic, beautiful vibe that draws me to gothic media.
