Minerva stop it

Severus's doe is simply gorgeous. Just look at her in the original! σ(≧ε≦σ).

A middle-aged goth man and a grandmother cat from the Mesozoic era. The most important thing is to drown out the creative crisis for a month or two(⌐■_■)👍

Thank you Maggie Smith ❤️

No one could have played Professor Minerva McGonagall as well as she did 🤍

Okay, so what's interesting to me with Absolute DC is it seems like so far it's been turning a lot of traditional relationships on their heads, with some of the Trifecta's greatest allies transformed into enemies and vice versa. This principle is probably best illustrated in Absolute Batman (re: the Gotham Rogues gallery as Bruce's childhood friends and Alfred the MI6 agent)

Absolute Batman #1, Absolute Batman #3

However, Absolute Superman's Lois Lane also deserves a shout out

Absolute Superman #1

Now, what's even more interesting to me is that I feel like Absolute Wonder Woman may be building up to a similar role reversal with Steve Trevor. We've had several role reversals when it comes to classic Wonder Woman enemies, namely Circe, who in the Absolute Universe is a mother-figure for Diana, and Cheetah/Barbara Minerva, who might be gearing up to be a love interest based on how she's been presented so far

Absolute Wonder Woman #1, Absolute Wonder Woman #3

What we haven't gotten are any traditional allies in a quasi-antagonistic role like we've gotten in Absolute Superman and Batman. The only real traditional ally that's been introduced so far is Steve Trevor (who, interestingly enough, seems to have a pretty platonic friendship with Diana so far, which might lend credence to my wondercheetah theory)

Absolute Wonder Woman #3

Absolute Barbara herself seems to be emulating her most updated origin so far (i.e. Rebirth) -- where she's an archaeologist/academic who's dedicated her career to proving the existence of the Amazons and eventually forms a friendship with Diana

Wonder Woman (2016) #8, Absolute Wonder Woman #3

In the mainstream DC universe, Barbara Ann Minerva and Diana remain good friends until a villain distracts Diana long enough to change Barbara Ann until the Cheetah. Diana promised she would find her, but with Barbara Ann's only means of contacting her nullifed without her knowledge, Diana fails to arrive in time. It's only then that Barbara Ann, feeling abandoned and betrayed, shifts from an ally and friend to one of Wonder Woman's rogues

Wonder Woman (2016) #18

This is the twist modern comics audiences would normally expect in a mainstream universe comic. But, as we've already established, in the Absolute Universe, villains are allies and allies are enemies. So if Absolute Wonder Woman follows the pattern we've been seeing so far and subverts our expectations, I think it's pretty likely that it'll actually be Steve, and not Barbara, who ends up turning against Diana and becoming a villain. Which, I'm certain, would be absolutely devastating to her, considering she gave up her dominant arm for him

Of course, I could just be blowing smoke here. After, all it's not like every major character in Absolute DC has switched roles -- Brainiac and Joker are still acting in their original antagonistic function, and it's not like Martha Kent or Jim Gordon have suddenly turned evil. The "reversed ally" trope could always be fulfilled by another of Diana's allies that just hasn't been introduced yet (Donna Troy or Hippolyta, for instance, or maybe even the Amazons as a whole, since they've really been playing up the importance of their disappearance from the beginning). But I do think Villain!Steve Trevor is a possibility I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for as the series progresses

Concerning The Childhood Abuse Of Severus Snape:

Do you think Albus, Minerva, Horace or any of the Hogwarts staff knew about what Severus was going through at home? If they all did know, how do you think they've found out; through Lily's confessions, or Severus returning to the school with cuts, bruises, and black eyes?

Granted, in the 70's people did little to nothing when knowing a child was being abused. But, Albus and Minerva are Gryffindors who valued bravery and standing up for others. You'd think they (especially Minerva) would've send a howler or two to Eileen and Tobias.

Plus, Eileen was a Hogwarts student, herself; she would've known Albus, Minerva, Horace and the rest of the teachers. As a result, the Hogwarts staff would've been horrified to find their former student being with an abuser-Wizard or Muggle. While they would've been cross with how Eileen's been negligent of Severus, they would've still tried to help them get out of Tobias's grasps. Yet, Eileen, like many abuse victims, would refuse the help and stay with the abuser.

Rambling aside, but what do you think may've happened? And, come to think of it, do you think Lily and Petunia's parents tried to interfere too?

Yes, hello, I love your blog, you're my only window into what the fandom is doing and I could always completely skip the manga and just stick to reading here. So, about your poll of popular theories, I saw something about the demon world being underwater, would you mind elaborating, please? It's for research. For a fanfic 👀

[The poll in question]

I'm always going to advocate for reading the manga, not just because of what happened with S2, but also to see all the gorgeous detailing Demizu puts into her work that's lost in the transition to TV animation, along with her playing with perspectives/proportions in relationship to power dynamics.

(Chapter 1 | S1 Episode 1)

But thank you! <3

My understanding was the theory of the demon world being underwater was introduced by @couldnt-think-of-a-better-name, who was mainly active during the series' heyday (February 2019-July 2019, between the releases of chapters 123-142 during the King of Paradise and Seven Walls arcs and when S1 premiered in Japanese and English).

• Main post about the theory • Secondary post about Lambda-7214 being a coordinate • Neat edit of chapter 7's, chapter 16's, and chapter 2's cover art • Volume 13 Special Edition mini-artbook art hinting at the trajectory of the series

I think it's interesting in how the Seven Walls search party traverses what we're presented with as the entire demon world to find clues about Cuvitidala and the Seven Walls, yet the largest body of water we see anyone interact with is a pond. Nothing close to an ocean that would present them with difficulties such as building a boat or buying one from demons.

(Chapter 60 | Volume 8 Title Page | Chapter 99 | Chapter 100 | Chapter 102)

Shirai also confirmed the elevator at Goldy Pond takes one to "a certain forest in Australia" (out of 458 forest communities).

(Mystic Code Book Chapter 3 Q&A)

While the stairs under Grace Field headquarters seem to land one somewhere on the east coast of the former United States of America.

(Chapter 178 | Chapter 179)

There's the imagery of the Statue of Liberty, leading me to believe the North American headquarters for the Ratri clan are located in (former?) New York City, but I don't know if I would necessarily say they wash up on the city's shores since Mike takes a jet out to meet them and the children aren't freezing in the November weather there. There's also the impracticality of after coming back from the demon world to transport goods or just traverse between the worlds you conspicuously land out in the open on the beach, so I believe it was the demon god's meddling that sent them to this beach, and the proper exit in one specific, singular location like the Goldy Pond one is somewhere else in the area. Two specific locations located in opposite hemispheres in our world, yet in the demon world you could potentially travel between the two passageways on foot in approximately a week based on the time it took the kids to reach the shelter at B06-32 (one day of initially wandering through the forest, five days traveling with Sonju and Mujika, and one day walking through the wasteland) and how long it took Yuugo, Emma, and Ray to reach Goldy Pond (four days) if it was a straight shot.

(Chapter 49 | Chapter 60)

It all leaves me very curious about how large the demon world is compared to the human world and how the demon god decided to split the two worlds up.

It's also interesting how despite all the water imagery in the series, we don't see any rain in the manga outside of the chapter 28 cover art (mentioned in the fourth post of that list):

But the anime chose to have a very light rain overlay during the second episode while not animating the ground or characters getting wet:

It rains in the light novels.

(TPN Light Novel 4: Films of Memories [December 2020] - "Operation Stormy Night," originally published in Minerva Confidential Report Report Volume 1 that was packaged with the first volume of the Japanese S1 blu-ray in March 2019)

And we see the children playing in the snow in the past.

My friend and I go as a couple ♡

I came to tell you the news that I was covered with a New Year's vibe and naturally sat down to watch Harry Potter (and how would... what the hell I don't even have drawings for this beautiful universe?) I think it's not worth asking about my favorite characters (Alan Rickman is perfect ♡), let's see if the hyperfix covers, then I'll draw a lot of work (I hope to hold on until December), if not... Well, it's a pity

Snape And His Students:

Minerva McGonagall: Honestly, Severus, you're appalling when it comes to the Slytherins. You act as if they're the Golden Children!

Severus Snape: That is not true! Crabbe and Goyle are idiots, Penny Haywood was brilliant and Luna Lovegood's too confusing for her own good.

Minerva McGonagall: ..."Confusing"?

Severus Snape: Can we be certain her parents weren't hippies?

Hi, I haven’t said anything about this fandom for so long but... If we had to give Yuugo and Lucas realistic faces, I see Yuugo having the face and being played by a younger Hugh Jackman and Lucas by a Younger Jake Gyllenhaal or Charlie Hunnam. What do you think?

Heyyo welcome back 👋

I can kind of see Yuugo Jackman and Lucas Gyllenhaal!

Maybe Lucas Pine

Also while searching for pictures I stumbled across this one of Hugh Jackman and imagine Yuugo with this cut:
