master artist and his number one fan

guy who is being so normal about the new additions to their profiles. i think abt midoris initial infatuation with his art slowly developing into appreciating yuzuru himself as a person and idol to the point he worries about how he sees him (ex: a bit of home party and in workplace survival rules) sometimes thats a lie i think about it a lot. and yuzuru learning to enjoy art just for the sake of drawing!! seeing the lets try diy story where he doesnt even refute drawing on midoris desk and was only worried that his doodles might cover up the mascot design compared to how discouraged he usually would be in earlier ! stories. everything to me i adore their dynamic if that wasnt obvious by *gestures to basically everything*

and happy pride month 🏳‍🌈

a reminder to all translators: YOU ARE AN ARTIST!

Translation work *is* art, and it's truly incredible what you do and you touch so many more lives than you realize- and often, those who's lives you touch with your translation work never realize just how much thanks they owe you, but from the bottom of my heart I want you all to know how grateful I am for all people in fandom and outside of it who translate things, those who do it professionally, those who do it for fun, what you do cannot be replaced by a machine, yes maybe it can give a literal translation but it cant really offer any of the human experience or creative choices that actual translators put into things! TO ALL MY BELOVED ANIME AND MANGA LOVING FANS ESPECIALLY i want to remind you to show some love to translators who make it possible for us to enjoy our favorite shows, as well as a special thanks to those who make fan translations of anime openings or things that never recieved an english translation! Pokemon fans you guys should get this especially, remember those guide books that answered so many questions we've had in the west that only got translated thanks to fan efforts and translators who were paid to translate some of the earliest guide books? Naruto fans! If you dont know, but you might, theres also a naruto radio show that theres translations for online that we ONLY have acess to because of fans efforts!

Don't get me started on all the people who make translations and EVEN SING THEM! remember how amazing some of those anime song translations and make them *actually singable?* Don't forget that doing that is a very creative act too! and people who translate fan comics!!!! or fanfictions!!!! please! appreciate them! It takes so much skill to translate the experiences of one culture into another, to make it understandable and meaningful across cultural and language barriers and to make it sound good on top of it all.

Tonight I cried reading an old translation of harmonia, one of my favorite naruto endings, it's 15 years old now, and i used to listen to it and sing it (with the help of that translation) with one of my little sisters, and its one of the only happy memories I have from that time in my childhood.

and so many other magnificent translators filled my childhood with wonder and joy, giving me the meanings of songs that changed my view of the world and helped me cope with hardship, and grow into a person i'm very proud of being.

Thank you, you'll never know just how many lives and hearts you touch. You are loved, you are appreciated, and anyone who thinks your art form can be replaced by a machine doesn't understand language well enough or culture well enough to know just how difficult it really is to capture the essence of someone elses art and I think in many ways, translation is a field where that which we call the soul of an art piece is most tangible, and can be most clearly seen, as it takes human experience and conscious choices based on an actual understanding of the real world and life itself to express that which is human in art. thank you, so so much for all you do.

i could go on for hours, but this is all to say, thank you

and if you THINK you can be replaced by machine translation please just go through an ensemble stars fan comic through google translate its utterly incomprehensible-

[couldbebetterforsure]

Holy shit……

You know when I first read Meteor Impact a little bit ago it already wrecked me awfully. This particular scene of Chiaki’s probably hurt me most. Just seeing Chiaki starting to give in to his despair, to his misery that nothing he does is working out, that he isn’t being rewarded with support or help or anything after everything he’s done. Seeing this poor, bullied boy giving up is absolutely gut wrenching, especially after seeing how he’s like in present day stories in comparison.

But holy shit Yuichi Jose’s voice acting in this moment. The fact he doesn’t yell or scream, he barely raises his voice in this scene. For a scene like this you’d probably expect it to be louder….

But Chiaki sounds sooo….lifeless….

I listened to this moment and it utterly terrified me. Because it truly sounds like someone who is spiraling into the pit of despair, someone at the end of his rope. Someone who is just….DONE.

What would’ve happened if he didn’t hear his ringtone so soon afterwards, if he hadn’t received that phone call? It’s unnerving to think of…

[spacedlexi]

the way the ericson group were at the outbreak just a bunch of troubled kids who made various mistakes or committed crimes and were judged by a system that punished and abandoned them instead of giving them the support and love they needed, are then nearly a decade later put into a situation where now they must judge a troubled child for the mistakes and crimes hes committed against them. and 5 to 3 vote them out 😭

Koji Kominami as Rei Sakuma appreciation post

When I tell you all this man is BLINDINGLY gorgeous to me I mean it he drives me insane he's got an ending fairy and he asudgufhkcgjhdkfgjs like. this man got me studying his facial structure, he's THAT attractive to me

like how can a guy have a lip shape like that I didn't even know that was possible

and like, his eyes??? how- LIKE I KNOW PART OF IT IS MAKEUP BUT

HIS EYE SHAPE??? HIS FACE??? HIS JAW?? don't get me started on how his hands and arms look because that's a whole other territory but LIKE????? HOW ARE YOU BUILT LIKE THAT MY GUY???????

He also just does a REALLY good Rei, crazy balance between serious and flirty and goofy and angsty all at once he's so good at this role

I'd add his stupid Dracula's cousin "I arch my back-ula" moment too but that deserves to be in gif form rather than just still photos

There's a reason 'art in motion' exists and this man is one of them

HOW DOES A FACE LIKE YOURS EXIST SIR????????
