Issey Miyake: A-UN Exhibition Musée des Arts Décoratifs Paris, France (1988)

[chickenstilldancing]

Just found out that A-Un in the manga is never called by name meaning that he doesn't actually have a name at all in the manga (!), it was given in the anime only. This in turn meaning that I read the manga without even noticing this detail, supposedly because as I'd watched the anime first my brain just filled the gap automatically.

But now I need to know more. Who did name them? Takahashi herself? Somebody on the Sunrise's staff? Well, whoever did it, I love this person 🩷

COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING

@clementinesgulag​ and I had my best friend, who has very little if not no idea about Inuyasha, guess Inuyasha character names. 

Here is the result:

I just accidentally made un-tea?????

I made green tea, but I forgot there was an old bag of chai in the kettle, so I mixed chai water with decaf green tea, then I mixed in like a half table spoon or something of that honey from the dollar store that they aren't legally allowed to call honey because there's too much corn syrup in it and some almond milk and a single drop of coffee creamer because we ran out and???? It tastes like??? Nothing????

It has LESS flavor than my tap water! HOW do you EVEN-

I think I made a flavor that's only perceptible to shrimp, that's the only explanation

Nell'anime A-Un non aveva un nome prima che Rin arrivasse a portare scompiglio nel gruppo. Presumibilmente Sesshōmaru non aveva mai neppure pensato di doversi disturbare a sceglierne uno, in fondo si trattava solo di una bestia da carico/da tiro a suo servizio. Quando sono andata a ricontrollare i capitoli corrispondenti all'episodio 52 (26x02, L'inarrestabile aspetto del demone) non solo ho realizzato che nel manga questa piccola nota di colore è del tutto assente, ma, continuando a scorrere le pagine e i capitoli, sono arrivata infine a contemplare un'assurda verità che per vari minuti la mia mente si è rifiutata di processare: A-Un nel manga di Takahashi non viene mai chiamato per nome. Il che poi significa che di fatto nel manga di Takahashi il drago a due teste di Sesshōmaru non ha un nome. Non è tristissimo?

Soprattutto però questa scoperta ora pone delle domande: chi ha pensato per primo al nome "A-Un"? La stessa Takahashi? Qualcuno dello staff Sunrise?

Y'all have gotta get more insane about platonic relationships like you are about romantic relationships. We need to get more annoying about them NOW. I need to see more meta and losing our minds over them. Get more annoying NOW. More than that. More than that also.

Funny things I found out playing with language setting in Netflix while looking episode 15:

Chilchuck's scream sounds HAUNTED in brazilian portuguese. Give it a try if you can.

(You can hear it here)

In spanish dub, Senshi says: "tocó mis senos de hombre", which means "he touched my man boobs" in Spanish. And I think that's the best dub line one so far.

saying ao3 needs to censor certain content is like saying a museum can't have still life art that includes strawberries because you don't like them.

these are not real strawberries. you do not have to, and in fact cannot, eat them. no one with a strawberry allergy will be harmed by looking at them. no migrant workers were exploited in the picking of these strawberries. there were no questionable farming practices or negative environmental impacts from growing or transporting them.

because - and i cannot stress this enough - they are not real strawberries.

if you don't like strawberries, you don't have to look at the paintings. in fact, you can get a map of the museum that lists what works are in what rooms and just. not go in there. if you see one by mistake, you can look away. just keep walking. there's plenty of other stuff to see.

yes, real strawberries can cause real quantifiable harm to real people.

but again. these are not real strawberries.

you may have whatever feelings you like about strawberries, and so can i. you can draw and write about whatever fruit floats your boat, and so can i, even if that happens to be strawberries. and we can hang our art side by side in the same gallery, provided you understand that my strawberries are not about you (and your kumquats are, shocker, not about me) and that - and this is true - neither are real.

and when the fascists break down the doors and grab all the strawberry paintings and heap them in the street and set them on fire, please know that they are coming for your kumquats next.

so if you want a place where you can show off your beautiful kumquat art safely, you're gonna have to tolerate having some strawberries in the next room.

and that's okay. because the strawberries aren't real.

[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled "immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]

a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”
