Hi! Saw (one of?) you at Animazement (I was the BOTW Zelda who got a Sara Chidouin charm, idk if that helps lol).
Not really expecting an answer or anything just figured I’d say hi/that your art is really cool! Am not an artist myself so idk what to say about someone’s art beyond “is good” and variations on that but yeah.
Excited to follow you on tumblr now and see what you post :)
Awee thank you so much for stopping by!! My sister was running the booth at Animazement for us, so you probably saw her hehe (happy you know there's two of us, most people dont realize but my sister runs a LOT of the shop stuff nowadays and i couldnt do it without her!!!!!) thank you so much, im really happy you enjoy our art :3 i'm not the most active on tumblr so i check my asks infrequently, but i am committed to posting any finished art whenever i post on my other social media as well!!

warning on bkomei
Bkomei is a big name in the dainty community, having designed baggie and shay, and even doing the first MYO guide. We came across their NSFW account keiokinks, in which they openly ship the bnha characters and draw NSFW content of them. They’ve even retweeted fanfiction explicitly tagged “underage sex”. I’m going to copy and paste the information I sent to dramadainties.
Here’s proof that the Keiokinks account is Bkomei: https://web.archive.org/web/20220222131218/https://twitter.com/keiokinks (the account has been archived, so sensitive images aren’t shown but there is explicit content and talk of on here so I’d mark it as 18+ in case) Here’s Bkomei’s twitter, with their carrd in their link: https://twitter.com/bkomei?s=21&t=gxCIpcIegloaoCb4mp57MA If you go to the carrd and go to their instagram, https://instagram.com/bkomei?igshid=NWRhNmQxMjQ= it asks specifically to call them BK or Mei. BK is the name for the nsfw account, as well as info such as bi/nb, which they identify as for further proof. Bkomei has even retweeted fanfics that explicitly state “underage sex” in the CW tags, if you look at the web archive it’ll show but I’ve attached a screenshot as proof just in case: https://imgur.com/4C11iXM If this was not evidence enough that it IS them, they mentioned going to a con both on Bkomei and Keiokinks. Bkomei con post: https://twitter.com/bkomei/status/1530227667429167109?s=21&t=gxCIpcIegloaoCb4mp57MA Keiokinks con post: https://twitter.com/keiokinks/status/1531154146048593920?s=21&t=gxCIpcIegloaoCb4mp57MA The con specifically was Animazement, which occurred around the same time both of these were posted.
For those who have doubts that Bkomei is keiokinks, please look at this tweet: https://twitter.com/bkomei/status/1530227667429167109?s=21&t=1B-vfHUNQkETEQTYcQjQdw And then look at this tweet on the keiokinks account: https://twitter.com/keiokinks/status/1529925588701650946?s=21&t=1B-vfHUNQkETEQTYcQjQdw if you zoom in on Bkomei’s tweet, on the corkboard its very clearly the same charms keiokinks posted. Sama also follows this account, which is a little suspicious to me. https://imgur.com/HFbw2O3 Pru doesn’t follow this account so I’d like to give her the benefit of the doubt and assume she’s unaware. If the charms are not enough, they post about their oc pairing, Danger on the keiokinks account as well. https://imgur.com/OpQIpYi (Image has been completely censored as it is not relevant, just the ship name) They have a folder on Deviantart dedicated to this pairing, as seen here: https://www.deviantart.com/bkomei/gallery/68975961/dangerous-ship Hope this cements it for you all.
I’m sending this purely because nothing has come of it despite BKDK on toyhouse being banned for the same thing. Being popular and friends with the mods does not give Bkomei the excuse to do the same thing. Thanks.

Looking at this Dutch dub of Castle of Cagliostro from 1985 in greater detail and... Oh boy, I have so many thoughts!
I meant it when I said it’s bog-standard but, in all honesty, I can’t find it in my heart to hate it like I have hated many Dutch anime dubs in the past. In fact, I’ve kinda grown fond of it. Not in the same way as the Animaze dub of course, but more in the way of “awww, they tried”.
This dub has equal parts questionable decisions and equal parts of what seems to be genuine care. There were a few line changes I disliked for doing stuff like painting Count Cagliostro as a literal vampire (no I am not kidding) and Clarisse’s VA sounded the most wooden among the entire cast, but Lupin’s VA does an admirable job at making Lupin sound halfway charming in a sense, and the way that a few lines were rewritten were pleasantly quaint. Also, with this dub being based on TMS’s subtitled print (since the Streamline dub didn’t exist yet), a large chunk of the dialogue sticks closer to the original than Streamline’s dub would six years later.
I guess I subconsciously put my expectations really low when I first heard about this dub because of prior experience. I was expecting stuff like voice-actors who sounded like they did not give two sh*ts and just wanted the paycheck, extremely fragmented or transliterated writing, or a full-on overhaul of the entire plot with little respect for the source material. What I got instead was a baseline competent if severely flawed dub. I would not in a million years front this dub as the best way for a Dutch-speaking fan to watch this film, let alone enter the Lupin III franchise, but I think it still holds merit as a fun little curiosity.

Pros and Cons of College Life in Raleigh
Last time I wrote about colleges in Raleigh generally and how it’s not like other college towns. This time, I’m gonna be speaking a bit more about the pros and cons so it should be a little more specific.
Before that, however, I wanna make this clear: Raleigh is not somewhere you should move to for college unless the school you’ve applied to is your dream school.
In terms of academics, there are better choices than NC State or WPU. If you wanna study biology or medicine, schools like UNC-W or Duke would probably be a better fit for instance. If you live in Raleigh, don’t pick a school just because it’s close; if you live in another part of the states and you want to attend an east coast school there are options all along the east coast that you should consider.
Raleigh is a great place to live and work, and there are plenty of friendly people here; but a degree from the right university can make or break your career (depending on the field and other aspects of course).
As a person suffering from anxiety, the question “Do you want the good news or bad news first” has always been a terrible one for me. Up until I hear the bad news, it could be literally anything regardless of what the person asking was doing or how much of the task they were on I’m familiar with.
Similarly, living in Raleigh (or really anywhere for that matter) is going to present a lot of subjective pros and cons. Please keep in mind this is gonna be super subjective, but I hope you enjoy reading this even if we disagree.
But you didn’t come here to read three paragraphs of disclaimer. So lets start by listing the good stuff.
Raleigh is a city full of vibrant color, culture, and cool shit. You can find cool things almost anywhere you look, regardless of where you are in Raleigh. I mean, all of the pictures (including those in this article) I use for this blog I’ve taken in Raleigh or nearby it. As a result, the first pro has got to be the beltline highway system.
The beltline is a highway system composed of I-440, I-40, and parts of I-540 that encapsulates all of Raleigh. It connects north and south Raleigh while having downtown in the center, letting travelers easily reach nearly any part of Raleigh.
I’ve lived on the border of Durham, Cary, and Rolesville at different points in my life. I’ve had to make trips to Garner and Apex for various reasons. At no point in my 20+ year stay have I ever had to make a city trip that lasted longer than a half-hour (one way). It makes working in Raleigh especially easy, since the abundance of highway access points and the convenience of the loop design means I’m never too far from that loop.
It even helps with adjusting to your new environment if you move here (for school or other reasons) since if you’re ever lost, the highways can act as a point to re-orient yourself by. I know I’ve had to do it plenty of times in the past, and it can really save you from looking like an idiot if you excuse your lost-ness by just saying “Oh yeah mate, I was just tryna get on the highway. Saves so much time.”
Does this mean Raleigh has the best transportation network of any city? Hell no. Does this mean that Raleigh has the best highway system? Not even close. But it’s still super nice, especially for students. You’ll run into the problems any urban place has like rush hour or crash delays, but this is mitigated by the fact you’ll be using it for our second pro: Everything happens in Raleigh.
Well, not EVERYTHING everything but as I’ve ranted about before; there’s plenty to do and see in the city of Raleigh (even if you’re a student).
For instance, according to raleighnc.gov, Raleigh is home to over 200 public parks. Not a fan of parks? Into more electronic entertainment? Then visit our very own “Arcade of Thrones” downtown and get your game on with your fellow nerds
Boring stuff like restaurants and night clubs aside, Raleigh is home to literally thousands of businesses and social clubs for you to partake in. Farmers markets, gun and knife shows, fishin’ holes and public church barbecues are available for that classic southern charm; but don’t forget to make use of our barcades, art festivals, concerts, comedy clubs and sport centers.
The only reason why I’m not going into more detail about examples like First Friday, the downtown cultural festivals, PNC arena or other more specific events is because I want to write about them in-depth in the future.
Of course, students having things to do and places to go is only part of the college experience. If you’re gonna come to Raleigh for college, the best pro I could possibly mention is the support network.
Not to say that we’re exactly all one big happy family here, but in Raleigh you get that nice blend of metropolitan city life with your rural state. Orgs like the LGBT Center, Goodwill, Raleigh Missions, and more support locals in need constantly and provide for the many different groups around here.
Libraries and civic centers share the same city as mosques and churches which neighbor women's shelters and LGBT+ advocacy groups. If you’re a republican or democrat, that’s fine but be prepared to meet the other members of the political spectrum since groups like the Democratic-Socialists of America (DSA) are active downtown as well.
If you need help or want to help others, there’s a 98% chance that you’ll find someone or something out there that meets your needs. Join a community through Facebook or Nextdoor and you’ll see every diaper drive, garage sale, and community recommendation pop up whenever one is needed.
Of course, this brings us to our first con. Raleigh may be home to some of the nicest people I’ve ever met but it doesn’t mean you won’t run into some problem people sooner or later.
There’s of course the typical collegiate douchebags, the upper-middle class young scions of no import who fumble through life with no regard for others because mommy and daddy will perpetually care for them, but being a red state you’ll also run into the more colorful republicans.
Every year there’s an anime convention called “Animazement” downtown and every year there’s a small herd of fundamentalist Christians warning all the otaku who’ll listen that they’re going to hell. Drive around town long enough and you’ll find a few different businesses that have made their opinions on things like masks and social distancing clear, not to mention there’s no shortage of QAnoners and alt-right sympathists.
Of course, you shouldn’t let others dictate the quality of your life or the area you live in but you should be aware that these people exist. Raleigh is more liberal than other parts of North Carolina for sure but it’s not the leftist paradise those other parts would say it is.
Other than the coinflip that is neighbors, Raleigh is kind of a pricy place to live. The cost of living is on average higher than other cities in the US, cheaper still than New York of Californian cities, but pricey nonetheless.
Rent in Raleigh for a one bedroom apartment is on average $975 according to bestplaces.net and can go as high as $1200 depending on the complex and location.
That, with a federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, means you’ll need
>Multiple jobs >Multiple roommates >A good paying job
or any combination of the two to be able to afford rent, utilities, and food beyond cup ramen. There’s housing programs like Section 8 and military housing initiatives to help, but for students you’re looking at some pretty steep housing costs for anywhere that’s not student dorms.
You can get a good job that pays decent, of course, nothing’s impossible. However, finding one that won’t require roommates would demand full time hours (which might be difficult to make on student scheduling) or a degree (which you’re probably at college to get). Most living spaces require you make at least 3x the advertised rent to even be considered as well, which may limit students to seedier student living complexes like University Village or The Proper (Formerly Vie, formerly wolf creek).
Finally, if you move to Raleigh for college be prepared to drive. A lot.
As I mentioned earlier, the beltline is a god send for students and people looking to explore; but it’s also practically mandatory for moving around Raleigh. Public transit in Raleigh isn’t non-existent but it’s pretty damn close.
Live between 10-15 minutes from your desired destination? Taking the bus is gonna be anywhere from half an hour to a full hour, and that’s if you even live near a bus route. If you’re like myself and habitually on the edge of Raleigh, be prepared to drive for a bit before you even see a GoRaleigh bus let alone a stop.
The buses do at least run pretty late (Closing normally around 11PM), but the lack of public transit lines and bike-able roads means that you’ll be adding to the urban congestion more likely than not.
Okay with driving? Hope you’re okay with paying another arm and a leg, because at most schools down here tuition doesn’t cover your parking pass.
NC State prices range from $105 to over $400 depending on your credit hours and where you’re staying at. Other schools like William Peace only charge a flat $130 for their parking decal, but most of the schools require you throw them an extra Apple Pencil or two for the privilege of being able to park your own vehicle close to the actual campus.
There are workarounds, like parking off-campus nearby, but those carry risks and penalties that can add up over time. The audacity these schools have to take thousands in tuition and then demand that you pay and additional fee to just use the parking lot.
Hopefully, though, regardless of my thoughts if you live in Raleigh or North Carolina in general and you’re considering attending one of the fine establishments here; I’ve provided you some food for thought.
College can be a scary experience for many, and the area around it can really make or break your experiences. We don’t have the biggest party schools or the most glamorous cityscape; but if I had to go through the collegiate system again I honestly couldn’t imagine doing it anywhere else.
Next time I’ll be talking about some alternatives to College though, so stay tuned for that.
Special shout out to the DSA of Raleigh as well. They didn’t help write any of this or communicate with me during the production of this article, but they’ve been doing some amazing work downtown with the homeless during the pandemic. They are some of the most amazingly hard working individuals who care immensely for the community and you can check them out on dsanc.org.

It’s so hard to take a nice picture of my itabag when it’s so reflective. Just got @kittykichi Spirit of Tutu pin and it’s beautiful! I’m excited to re-arrange my bag and add it to my collection.
Also shoutout to @ninapedia for the new Tutu and Kraehe, Hannah on IG for the ahoge pins, and @swandrawn for the pendant charm with the cute duck attached. Got them all at Animazement 2019!

so my suitcase with all the stuff i just bought at animazement and both costumes i brought is somewhere in airport limbo with a claim number that says it hasn’t been located yet so that’s fun
otherwise con was a good time! hung out with good friends and bought some more prompto charms which are in my suitcase that will hopefully be found and sent to me soon :))))))))))))
anyways gonna finally meet my internet waifu this week too [kissing emoji x1000] which will be a great finale to a wild couple weeks of travel
#i wanted to remake the majority of elizabeth anyway and rhyme wasnt too much effort and i decided against bringing pandy so#it's not like the costumes were super important in that sense#and all the stuff i bought wasn't necessarily incredibly valuable or important but i dropped a good chunk of change at the con#i brought mostly clothes that i made too to show off and be cute#plus my p4 necklace and xenoblade necklace#im sure it's fine and they find it but this is ridiculous honestly
