I usually don't ship Sanji x Ace, but I don't mind seeing the pairing, but check em out..
Ace, who's a Devil Fruit user, he ate the Mera Mera no Mi, while Sanji is flame resistant.
can't you see how cute that pairing is?!???!?
Sanji not getting affected around Ace's flames made Ace fall for him as if like Sanji accepted Ace for something he is dangerous of.
#I'm not updated on one piece#I just started a couple of weeks before#I'm reading the manga first before everything else#I'm not that far because I dont read constantly#but I've seen clips from the Anime#little clips#so yeah#I'm also bad at english so i may have constructed what i said in this post wrongly#black leg sanji#one piece#one piece sanji#sanji#sanji vinsmoke#portgas d ace#ace d portgas#blackleg sanji#vinsmoke sanji#acesan#Sanji x Ace

#puppy rambles#yo-kai watch#i'm pretty sure most of the episodes with hailey were dubbed honestly. they must just be hard to find or something??? idk#though i've seen a good amount of clips of the komasan taxi segments in the dub and i'm like 90% sure that's dub season 3-#don't quote me on that though i'm. somewhere in the middle of dub season 2. episode 39 i think???#yea episode 39. wait why does the dub of ep040 not have don-don-dooby-zoo-ba as the ending theme#i thought it permanently switched away from yo-kai exercise no. 1-#the wiki might just be lying idk#and then there's space dance in season 3 and then the dub fucking died. rip anime you will be missed#‚‚‚ wait. michelle creber sings space dance??????? that's apple bloom my little pony. how did they manage that#yo-kai watch baffles me so fucking much sometimes what the fuck man#gera gera po is still the best anime opening by the way. it deserved to last for longer

20 years too late but I’m finally watching Hunter x Hunter. Just got through the exam arc and really hoping to see the opening actually happen.
#Hunter x Hunter#Everyone's gonna be telling me what happens in the later arcs now LOL I have only myself to blame for not watching sooner#It's actually a good thing I waited this long though because I don't wanna be out here comparing things to YYH#I've actually seen a bunch of clips from the reboot anime though so I have like vague ideas of what's going on#It's like the weirdest collection of clips that I've seen though like I have no idea what is actually going on in the story#I know Killua has a little sister (?) who he sometimes pretends to get beheaded by#And then one time the team tried to visit Killua but had to play a coin game with the butlers?#And then for some reason both Gon and Killua can 8 ft vertical leap into the air and stand on nothing#And there's an old lady who actually looks like a himedere???#Guys I have so much to catch up on but feel free to spoil me on anything because I'm telling you right now I'll still be shook#But yeah anyways my favorite is Leorio he's so funny and so normal I want to eat his cooking every day#Insanity Draws#Insanity of Mojiru

if i had a dime for every well-meaning sort of comic relief but all around heart of gold large bird that helped out the small mammal protagoists in a xenofiction story i'd have two dimes which isn't a lot biut it's weird that it's happened twice
#lucia reads: watership down#yes i'm ruminating on kehaar and also jeremy from 'mrs. frisby and the rats of nimh' again#though i feel like in both their cases their comic relief roles were played up in the movie adaptations?#at least with 'the secret of nimh' i can tell. idk about the watership down movie#because i'm too much of a baby to handle graphically violent animal death#but ig from the clips of kehaar i've seen it fits?

Also, kinda forget about this but... uh... in the HIDIVE dubbing of both RE:cycle movies, Sanetoshi has a British accent.
...I'm not sure how to process that, but on repeat listenings... it actually surprisingly fits him?? I'm not sure, cause I liked his previous english voice actor? Who did a really suave way of conveying him and who he is?
Forget about the dubs. Watch it subbed with me
#hvjgkkg sorry I don't have any opinions on dubs let alone English ones#The only English dub anime I've seen is yyh and clips from old sailor moon

Tracking Kou and Aoba's romantic progress in Cross Game: Volume 2, first half
I really like his mom and dad, but I hate him!
The new logo with the left leaf faded.
Part 2: Chapter 1
We begin the timeskip with our protagonist, frozen in time.
With both of our protagonists, frozen in time.
For all these years, Kou has been watching the baseball team, and therefore Aoba.
And for all these years, he's been grieving over the loss of Wakaba.
For all these years, Aoba has remained hostile towards Kou.
Chapter 2
Kou may have been motivated to start working out and practicing to reach Aoba's skill level, but he only managed to continue (instead of losing interest like with all of his previous hobbies) to this day because this was one of his last promises to Wakaba.
A small hint that he's already starting to surpass her. He's been the home run king of their batting cage for three years at this point, this has to annoy the shit out of her.
Chapter 3
We learn that the two families are no longer as close as they used to be with Wakaba gone. She was the link binding Kou and Aoba together.
Their relationship has essentially remained unchanged since the loss of said link four years ago. Aoba certainly changes separately from the boys in the baseball team, but she didn't think twice before removing her shirt in front of Kou, who she still thinks of as a snot-nosed brat.
Hate (大っ嫌い) is a very strong word here, but in Aoba's case it moreso indicates how childish her attitude is. Her feelings toward Kou, and thus her relationship with him, has remained unchanged since she was 9. She needs to continue loathing him, even if, or simply because the main reason she did so is gone. And as easygoing as Kou is, he can't help but be a little bothered.
That doesn't mean that he's gotten over Wakaba either, though.
Chapter 4
That lazy, good-for-nothing?
Yep. That lazy, good-for-nothing.
Chapter 5
Was Wakaba right? To see something in Kou? A seed of doubt has been planted into Aoba's perception of him.
#kouao play-by-play#i wish i could listen to the cross game ost while reading this but it was somehow never released???#i've never watched the anime but the music was incredible from what i've seen of it#meanwhile the ost from the mix clips i've seen sucks

Accessorizing With Disability ✨
I've seen a lot of people (Yes, For Real) reluctant to add disability aids to their characters because those aids are visually unappealing (and in case of character designs, "boring") or they do add aids, but so over the top on aesthetics that they wouldn't actually function (anyone who replaces a wheelchair with a living breathing animal, really)
So here is literally just a list of Shit I've Found While Decorating My Wheelchair. Feel free to add on.
Wheelchair Modifications
Some of these are for fun, some of them are for function, some are both. Many are chosen with intent to be stated at on purpose instead of for the wheelchair itself due to who I am as a person. This is the category I've done the most brainstorming in.
Custom paint jobs / decals (pictured example below, first image)
Bike horns / bells
Bike handlebar streamer thingies
Custom hubcaps and wheel covers (pictured example below, second image)
Clip on, usually folding rear view mirrors
Stickers / decals on seat backs (or patches for fabric chairs)
Handlebar or back bags
Colored / high visibility tape on wheels
Noisemakers / bells on wheels (admittedly these get annoying pretty fast)
Custom seat / armrest cushions
Clip on cup holders
Clip on cane holders
Eyes + Vision
Glasses chains
Pocket magnifiers worn as necklaces or on pocketwatch chains
Sunglasses
Goggles (tinted, to protect from irritation / dry eye, to magnify vision, etc)
Patterned fabric eye patches (pictured example below, first image)
Colored / embossed leather eye patches (pictured example below, second image)
Hearing
Hearing aid stickers / skins (pictured example below, first image)
Hearing aid jewelry (pictured example below, second image)
A note on hearing aid jewelry: I originally got an anon ask that I added here about dangly jewelry causing issues during sign, which was then refuted by other users, so I've removed it. For total clarity it's 2am where I am and I'm trying to minimize misinformation before looking through things when I'm more awake. Sorry for the confusion.
Mobility That Isn't Wheelchairs
Custom paint jobs (pictured example below, first image)
Stickers / decals
Keychains on wrist loops
Attached decorations (within reason) (or without reason I guess) (pictured example below, second image)
That's all I've got for now. Thanks 👍

joel and iskall go through a breakupo (???) and iskall begins his yandere ex gf arc around 4 hours and thirty something minutes in.
This week on hermitcraft: the anime: the harem isekai protaganist joel is being lusted after by at least five different people
I really can’t overstate how weird this is, and how thirty four minutes long it is. I wanted to cut it down but there's never thirty seconds w/out Joel (or Jimmy) talk. I guess I’ll put some clips on youtube? I haven’t even finished all my weird flirty mcc clips (including iskall/jimmy)
Real quotes:
Joel: "Secret relationship???" Iskall: "Do you not love me?" Joel: "Not like that, we're just friends." Iskall: "I just got friendzoned?" Joel: "Deal with it."
Iskall's Crazy Ex Arc Twitch link , 04:26:00
(he also does youtube vods so hopefully it will wind up there)
Timestamps:
04:25:47 - Joel logs on and heads to Iskall Iskall claims it’s all cool ha ha it’s a prank he’s fine 04:31:15 - Joel is gone, threatens restraining order over chat 04:34:55 - Iskall declares his Jimmy arc 04:37 - Iskall is trying to frame Etho 04:39 - Iskall starts writing crazed letters and sending them 04:44 - Joel is back 04:47 - Etho reference 04:54 - Joel leaves for good 04:55 - Iskall brainstorms ways to be very weird about Joel 04:58 - Iskall worried people won’t get the joke is he gets too weird about Joel
(some of the screenshots or my summary may have gotten a bit out of order)
Summary: Joel is back from Japan and has seen all the mail from Iskall. He logs on, Iskall starts flirting. Iskall tells his chat that ha ha it's all funny Joel doesn't realize it's all funny.
Iskall explains why he thought he and Joel were in a "secret relationship" because of a prank and note Joel left him. Joel says it was not him. (His chat says it was False.) Joel seems utterly baffled and friendzones him. Iskall is also baffled.
Iskall: "Do you not love me?" Joel: "Not like that, we're just friends."
Iskall: "I just got friendzoned?"
Iskall gets weird in chat, with Gem shouting and begging to get banned, Iskall sends Joel... crazy ex letters, I guess? I'm not screenshoting those, too many images, probably in his next ep.
Iskall declares he's moving on to his Jimmy arc, with his beautiful hair and eyes.
(Note: Iskall and Jimmy spent a bunch of time together for the Hermit Charity Stream. Maybe Iskall saw him with others and said, "Oh I can get much more homoerotic with hermits, huh." I'm new to Iskall but my friends say his obsession was never quite so... romantic framed.)
The previous day, on MCC, Iskall's first in three years:
Iskall somehow thinks he can pin anything here on Etho.
Iskall then tries to hire Joel to do armor stands and to sell him an apartment. Throughout all this, Etho is brought up several times.
I recommend keeping Iskall's chat up, it's not overwhelming and pretty fun. I've got some more chat quotes below the cut

Welp....it happened. I've already seen what I, a nature enthusiast, could not distinguish from a video clip of an actual animal until I read that it was 100% ai generated, from a text prompt alone, and then noticed that its details waver by like a few pixels when you're looking for it.
The fake footage moves almost exactly like a bird really does, and knew the right bird species from its taxonomic name. This generator is eventually going to be released to the public. "People could always photoshop things!".....yes, with EFFORT. By the end of this year anyone will be able to fake almost anything by typing a few sentences and get a BBC Documentary quality lie. There are so many horrible ramifications I can't even pick one to feel sick over first. It will be easier to make ai footage than to actually go outside and film anything....like do you realize how much of the internet is going to get completely suffocated in faker shit than ever, all at once, borderline impossible to debunk anymore? Will the coming generation grow up even giving a shit whether footage of something is real or just be like "oh you really filmed that in person? Huh neat, retro."
This WILL also be used to dismiss human suffering like never before, too. Photos out of Gaza already get accused of being faked. Now even videos won't have any obvious "tells" and any asshole will be able to dismiss anything at all as just ai. We're living in a world where no form of documentation is going to be any more reliable anymore than a verbal claim.

Hey Tracy! Have you heard about the new Ai called Sora? Apparently it can now create 2D and 3D animations as well as hyper realistic videos. I’ve been getting into animation and trying to improve my art for years since I was 7, but now seeing that anyone can create animation/works in just a mare seconds by typing in a couple words, it’s such a huge slap in the face to people who actually put the time and effort into their works and it’s so discouraging! And it has me worried about what’s going to happen next for artists and many others, as-well. There’s already generated voices, generated works stolen from actual artists, generated music, and now this! It’s just so scary that it’s coming this far. 
Yeah, I've seen it. And yeah, it feels like the universe has taken on a 'fuck you in particular' attitude toward artists the past few years. A lot of damage has already been done, and there are plenty of reasons for concern, but bear in mind that we don't know how this will play out yet. Be astute, be justifiably angry, but don't let despair take over. --------
One would expect that the promo clips that have been dropping lately represent some of the best of the best-looking stuff they've been able to produce. And it's only good-looking on an extremely superficial level. It's still riddled with problems if you spend even a moment observing. And I rather suspect, prior to a whole lot of frustrated iteration, most prompts are still going to get you camera-sickness inducing, wibbly-wobbly nonsense with a side of body horror.
Will the tech ultimately get 'smarter' than that and address the array of typical AI giveaways? Maybe. Probably, even. Does that mean it'll be viable in quite the way it's being marketed, more or less as a human-replacer? Well…
A lot of this is hype, and hype is meant to drive up the perceived value of the tech. Executives will rush to be early adopters without a lot of due diligence or forethought because grabbing it first like a dazzled chimp and holding up like a prize ape-rock makes them look like bleeding-edge tech geniuses in their particular ecosystem. They do this because, in turn, that perceived value may make their company profile and valuations go up too, which makes shareholders short-term happy (the only kind of happy they know). The problem is how much actual functional value will it have? And how long does it last? Much of it is the same routine we were seeing with blockchain a few years ago: number go up. Number go up always! Unrealistic, unsustainable forever-growth must be guaranteed in this economic clime. If you can lay off all of your people and replace them with AI, number goes up big and never stops, right?
I have some doubts. ----------------------
The chips also haven't landed yet with regards to the legality of all of this. Will these adopters ultimately be able to copyright any of this output trained on datasets comprised of stolen work? Can computer-made art even be copyrighted at all? How much of a human touch will be required to make something copyright-able? I don't know yet. Neither do the hype team or the early adopters.
Does that mean the tech will be used but will have to be retrained on the adopter's proprietary data? Yeah, maybe. That'd be a somewhat better outcome, at least. It still means human artists make specific things for the machine to learn from. (Watch out for businesses that use 'ethical' as a buzzword to gloss over how many people they've let go from their jobs, though.)
Will it become industry standard practice to do things this way? Maybe. Will it still require an artist's sensbilities and oversignt to plan and curate and fix the results so that it doesn't come across like pure AI trash? Yeah, I think that's pretty likely.
If it becomes standard practice, will it become samey, and self-referential and ultimately an emblem of doing things the cookie-cutter way instead of enlisting real, human artists? Quite possibly.
If it becomes standard industry practice, will there still be an audience or a demand or a desire for art made by human artists? Yes, almost certainly. With every leap of technology, that has remained the case. ------------------ TL;DR Version:
I'm not saying with any certainty that this AI blitz is a passing fad. I think we're likely to experience a torrential amount of generative art, video, voice, music, programming, and text in the coming years, in fact, and it will probably irrevocably change the layout of the career terrain. But I wouldn't be surprised if it was being overhyped as a business strategy right now. And I don't think the immensity of its volume will ever overcome its inherent emptiness.
What I am certain of is that it will not eliminate the innate human impulse to create. Nor the desire to experience art made by a fellow soul. Keep doing your thing, Anon. It's precious. It's authentic. It will be all the more special because it will have come from you, a human.

Heroes of the Dragon Age
An animation I've made for Dragon Age Day 2023, featuring my main Warden (Alyssa Cousland-Theirin), Hawke (Eleena Amell Hawke) and Inquisitor (Sulevin Lavellan)!
It's to this day one of my best artwork and I thought I should share it here too! 90+ hours between the original sketch, outfit design, the rough animation, rotoscope, inking, flat-colours, background shading and even the audio :')
Interested in the process? I detailed it below since it was my first time doing something like that:
I would like to start by saying I'm not a professional animator!Everything you've seen here is the result of experimentation and a lot of practice to learn and understand how 2D animation works.
My first idea started in May 2023. I just finished rewatching DA Absolution for the X time, and wanted to analyse why I loved the intro so much. (Even after countless rewatch, I never skipped it once.) I was inspired to study it with my main three protagonists!
Then came the first test with Alyssa Cousland-Theirin, my Hero of Ferelden! I tried to understand which part to separate for the animation. Mainly the hair and cape because it flows a lot more than the rest! If I recall, my first idea here was to make her counter flame attacks (?). Then, as the camera turns around her, I tried to add a grid to know how the camera would work around it.
I ended up making the clip longer, so she could position herself to the further left and leave space to the two other protagonists.
Now it was time to try to animate Sulevin Lavellan, my Inquisitor. I really kept that quick doodling style just to capture the vibe without putting too much time/effort into it! The background would be static to contrast with Alyssa's. I also loved the idea of a rogue sneaking!
Instead of working on Eleena Amell Hawke, my Champion of Kirkwall, I went back to Alyssa and started working with Clip Studio Paint 3D models (this entire animation has been done on the EX version of the software!) It helped for rotoscope animation and maintaining likeness! That's when I got the idea to make the background swirl around the character to let the eyes be guided by the rest of the screen!
After a couple more hours, I planned the entire animatic with 3D models and quick doodles! I finally found a cool pose for Eleena Hawke, which was honestly the hardest of the three to imagine for some reason? I tried many other poses but ended up picking an animation from the game!
This whole time, I was studying a bunch of background ideas and how studio Red Dog Culture House (who made Absolution) work! Thankfully, they have a YouTube Channel where they shared some BTS content so I could analyse it!
Then, I simplified my character and their original designs in the style of the studio! These outfits are how I imagine them after Trespasser. Alyssa as the Queen of Ferelden, looking for a cure to the Calling, Hawke following Fenris to Tevinter & Sully as a Red Jenny Inquisitor!
The idea for Sulevin's animation actually came from a piece I doodled on a live stream, when I was drawing pose studies and turning them into finished artworks haha As for Alyssa, I wanted to draw the fight that got her facial scars!
Once their designs were ready and the background ideas too, I made the rough version of the animation! Basically a sketch done on top of the 3D models to add the details, staying pretty rough just to capture the idea and movements.
Then it was time to start the lines! I decided make a folder per frame, so I could separate all he main elements and draw them one by one. It helps keeping the likeness of a character in the different frames without having big "jumps" between frames! In fact, every parts were coloured differently to recognize them, and then I used vector erasers and masks (Ah yes, the entire lineart is done in vectors of course! It's easier to adjust and save time when working on similar frames!)
At first of course, everything overlaps! But I find it easier to draw too much and erase after, just to make sure everything is coherent in each frames! The cool thing about CSP is how you can change the colour of the layers in one click! So all the coloured lines turned into black in one second, and I could reverse it just as quickly to double check!
Then I started working on Sulevin! I made a blue line to mark where her feet were, as the sketch in the background wasn't perfectly straight! (Like Sulevin's sexuality 🤭😂) The silhouettes were very quick to do, but I had fun adding more & more details as she came closer to the foreground!
I really wanted to add that little dagger trick, but I remember it required me to change the pacing of Eleena's apparition, as it was recovering her arm too quickly! I had to change the pace of multiple frames quite a lot during the project, to make sure the flow was right! For Eleena, most of her animation remained around her arms and the staff itself, as magic would be the most difficult part! That way each character has their own focus: Alyssa has a very animated background, Sulevin got the grappling hook and Eleena the ice!
Then it was time to start adding colours! Just like for the lineart, I separated every colour on it's own layer, so I could easily adjust the colours later if needed. I added one colour at the time, going through all the frames, and then another colour!
I made full palette tests with the colours I would use for their background at this point, checking if the details remained readable! Alyssa was the most challenging in terms of clothes, because I made her a very detailled armour! I had to simplify the Theirin heraldry, vectorize/redraw the Cousland, and make a brush for her cape's pattern!
Once I was done adding the flatcolours, I started the background, and oh boy it was a wild ride. For the cave, I painted multiple tests. I imagine was to use CSP panorama tools, which transform a texture into a 3D sphere, so each corners must match to look good. Sadly, it made the background very blurry, so after hours of testing, I changed ideas. Instead of the random fire balls (?) I originally imagined for Alyssa, I made three simple frames of a Rage Demon to attack her.
I ended up using the cave as a repeated pattern to make it turn 360° around the character. For Eleena, I mixed inspiration from the comics, Dreadwolf & Absolution, using warm colours matching Hawke's signature red. Just like I made the cave very grey/blue to match Grey Wardens. For Val Royeaux, it was more complex because I wanted to make it green, matching the Inquisitor's signature green. But bright green couldn't work, and the original colour during day time was blue/white/gold. So I added more leaves, played around the design a bit! After adding the rage demon, I made the shading! It was surprisingly easy and quick to do now!
I clipped a white layer on the flatcolours to not be distracted by the colours, and made thin lines to separate the light/shadows, then simply filled everything with the bucket tool! Then you set the layer to multiply and remove the white layer, and you have celshading shadows! Now the character looks out of the picture, so I added layers of blue in color burn, saturation and substract blending modes to make her look like she's in the right setting! Of course, I did the same with the other two, giving Hawke a red overlay and Sulevin green shadows!
Then I added the details, it went from white irises, to sword/staff smears to earrings and smaller finition that goes on top of these layers. To add the lights, I simply selected the shadows and reversed the selection! Using warm and cold tones to create contrast with the purple/bluish shadows! I also added more ambient light layers for Alyssa to reflect the Rage Demon fire. Now it was time to add ice magic! My first attempt had too many frames, making it look weird! Sometimes it's better to lower the frame rate to make things less bumpy!
Then I downloaded some cool ice brushes on CSP assets that made it look less like blue magical flames! But when I covered the screen in ice, I realized "Oh wait, I could make a cool transition from the ice, to blue lyrium turning red?"Red Lyrium truly links these three games and The Veilguard somehow! I spent the next hour painting over the idol and putting it in a black background, with lyrium and then the golden Dragon Age title text.
For the SFX, I used free youtube libraries sounds & "Darkspawn!" comes from the violent human female voice set (iconic for ""Can I get you a ladder? So you can get off my back!"😂🤭) After editing all that, the animation was finally done!
Here's the final math:
About 15 hours for the sketching/rough/animatic phase, 30h for the lineart, 25h for colours, 10h for backgrounds, 5h for details & 5h for music & SFX, for a total of 90 hours. Aka the same amount of time it took me to finish Baldur's Gate 3 the first time lol
If you have any question regarding the animation or the softwares etc. do not hesitate to ask, I'll do my best to answer!
