XANDER: OFF THE RUNWAY ⇀ EPISODE 012

it amuses him how jisoo hasn't thought of doing anything related to food on his channel before. he didn't want to overlap too much with the others who might have done mukbang related or food related channels, but it wasn't going to be a regular occurrence. and of course, while he hates that he couldn't get his mother to be the teacher on the show as a guest, he would rather not disclose anything too private from their home life and her location for his family's safety so he'd much rather keep them out of the public eye.

in which, he finds himself at a hole in the wall restaurant, one where he's rather good friends with the owner, so they allowed him the chance to have a behind the scenes shot at the cookery and teaching him how to cook some of the easier meals. the restaurant specializes in gopchang but he's not necessarily keen on eating that, so they compromise on making the basics instead, and showing snippets of each area without revealing the chef's secrets.

"this place is known for their gopchang! it's been a trending food lately, and i am sure it tastes good. we'll try a bit later in the soup, but since the gopchang is already cleaned and prepared, and only needs to be cooked, we'll show more of how to make the broth and assemble the bowl instead. i hope that doesn't disappoint you but, most of us don't readily buy gopchang to eat... or do you? is that a thing nowadays?" jisoo will admit, he's gotten better at interacting with the camera crew and staff in comparison to his first few episodes. he's quite proud of it, but they're not on episode 12 for no reason, with some scrapped episodes that never even made it to the channel. the restaurant staff clarifies that it is possible to cook at home, but it can be difficult because it's easy to cook it wrong, which makes people say that it's different at home in comparison to a restaurant. "the important thing is to clean it properly, but also cooking it properly. so a lot can go wrong. which is why i am in their capable hands... but let me stop talking and we'll show you a bit of some that are in the middle of being boiled, having already been cleaned. look, there's a lot of ginger in there. i think this is actually a necessary step."

"oh no, apparently while that is cleaning,i am going to have to start with the vegetables so we can compile all of the ingredients for the soup. you're going to see how badly i cook onion. hopefully i don't tear up, but if i still look good while tearing up, maybe i can make that an angle for an audition... i'm kidding, but if you see me in a show again, maybe i am not..."

A list of the forms of lookism as portrayed in the webtoon from the beginning to this day (Episodes 1-508). I made this list as a companion to this post and this post. This list is cross-referenced against the arcs, so this might not always fit with the specific episodes that I mentioned.

Authors add dark content to their stories for all kinds of reasons. They might be writing about an inherently dark subject, or they might just have a taste for dark stories. In less fortunate cases, they’re doing it to show they’re a big boy and this is a grown-up story for grown-ups. The thing with dark content is that it’s, well, dark. It can turn ugly fast if not used with thought and care. This week, we’re talking about how to take your story over to the dark side – and when it’s a good idea to do that in the first place.

Summary:

Nobody would have to know. It could stay between him and whoever Bucky chooses.

A quick google search tells him that the app he needs to get for something quick and easy, with no strings attached is Grindr. He downloads the app while he watches a bit of a Simpsons episode. It doesn’t take long, and when the app is downloaded, he looks at black icon with the yellow mask.

“Nobody has to know,” Bucky mutters under his breath as he taps the app.

hi guys, i may post this on youtube as a community post later but for now it will be a tumblr post for now, here is a letter to the amc

due to the synni/birdie drama and countless other dramas in the amc, after the 489 saga is finished, i will no longer associate myself with the amc nor make animation memes anymore. i genuinely dont understand any of you and im pretty sure im way more mature for my age regarding this (i am below 16, and a good chunk of you act like 8 year olds) ever since the foxi boxi situation this community has been turning into a hellfire and all of you proved to me that you wont plan to change anything or improve from it.

ive been planning to work on comics, cartoons and even games whether it be turbowarp python or roblox and while animation memes have raised me since idk, 2017? i think its almost time for me to move on. ive grown as a person and ive tried my best to improve, and one of those things will be leaving hellholes ive been raised in. as much as my starting point was leaf creatures headbopping to geometry dash music like almost 4 years ago, i am still an aspiring cartoonist and programmer/game designer and these chains that are my childhood have to eventually be broken and i will have to be set free into what i want to become

i can still watch or create shorts or animation trends, but the moment i call something i make an animation meme other than the episodes of the 489 saga is when pigs fly. if you came here to look at animation memes and ONLY animation memes, you only have around 13 more videos of the 489 saga (which even then are not true animation memes, they're parodies) to watch, sorry but this community is seriously turning into the next art tiktok and i dont even use tiktok, go watch mr pedohops pedomemes before hes exposed for being friends with p diddy and drake

you are free to make animation meme fanart of my characters. that is completely fine. but im not going to comment on it or reblog it. i want to make it clear that i want to associate myself as little as possible with all of you once im done with the 489 saga. after that is done, the amount of animation memes i will be making in the future will be zero, zip, zlich, nada, nil.

animation memers, it's time to grow up.

Transformers: Mosaic #489 - "Primitive To The Core"

Originally posted on June 2nd, 2010

Story - Juan Pablo Osorio Script - Franco Villa Art, Letters - Xavier Basa Colours - Brian Valeza

deviantART | Seibertron | TFW2005 | BotTalk

Later revised and annotated for Transformers: The Lost Seasons

wada sez: In the Sunbow cartoon, the Dinobots were created by Wheeljack and Ratchet, taking inspiration from dinosaur fossils as seen in S.O.S. Dinobots. The later episode “Call of the Primitives” established that all animalistic Transformers, including the Dinobots, belonged to a shared “Primitives” category, as referenced in the title here. The first panel here is presumably depicting the events of “Dinobot Island, Part 2″, where the Dinobots rally the island’s living dinosaurs to fight the Decepticons. The third panel shows their original Cybertronian modes, taken from The War Within. The big retcon here is the idea that the Dinobots were actually rebuilt from “laser cores” of existing Transformers from Cybertron, more in line with the Marvel Comics origin for the characters, rather than from scratch by Wheeljack and Ratchet as the cartoon itself established. Now, what on Earth is the “organic mimicking virus” they’re infected with, and what connection does that have to the concept of the Primitives? I’unno. Over a decade later, Villa returned to comment on the strip congratulating himself: “10 years after this comics, Simon Furman came up with the same idea in his Secrets & Lies!” Clean art below.

Hi there! Your recent enthusiasm for One Piece convinced me to give it a shot again, after a very long time. I started with that new live-action one, which was very enjoyable! And now I'm thinking to move on to the anime.

The thing is, the last time I attempted to watch it (a decade or so ago), I became intimidated by the amount of episodes and stopped. And now there are so many more!

All that to ask, do you have any favorite arcs/episodes? Or, if not favorite, ones you consider very important to the enjoyment of the series?

No pressure to answer, naturally. And let me just say your excitement and enjoyment of the series has been fun to see second-hand. 😁

Aww, thank you so much for sending me this, it made my day! (Sorry it took me a bit to get back to you, it's been a long week.)

There are SO many episodes!! It's definitely intimidating. I gave it a brief try before the Live Action came out, wasn't sure I wanted to invest that time and gave up. But after watching and LOVING the Live Action, I've tried again and really enjoy it!

That being said, my method of getting through long TV shows is just multi-tasking. I watch the dub (It's good!) and am usually doing a craft while watching or sometimes scrolling through tumblr, etc.

Other than that method, I know there is a fan-made cut of the show that removes a lot of the filler/redundancy and shrinks the run time significantly called One Pace, that gets recommended a lot, but I haven't tried it personally.

It is a bit of a hard show to skip around, imo, because a lot of the fun of it is the characters and their interactions and how they grow, plus a lot of minor characters appear in one arc and pop-up again later.

BUT if you were to eliminate episodes, here are what I'd consider the most important arcs, though I'm no means an expert.

(Here is a link to the wiki with a guide to the episodes)

-There are roughly 100 episodes of filler you can definitely skip, though that doesn't get rid of that much.

-If you want to skip what the Live Action covered, you can start with episode 48 and the Loguetown arc (48-53).

-The next few arcs introduce some minor characters we see again, but the next major arc that introduces a new Strawhat member is the Drum Island arc (78-91).

-It's long, but I would definitely recommend watching the next arc, Alabasta to get to know several reoccurring characters and the next Strawhat (92-130).

-It also goes on a while but the Skypiea arc introduces some important lore of the show (153-195)

-It's filler, but I ADORED the G-8 arc (196-206). Just funny hi-jinks that didn't feel like filler at all

-There's a few arcs in between you could skip but DEFINITELY watch Water 7 (227-263) and Ennies Lobby (264-312). There are parts that go on a bit long, but this was my favorite part of the show that I've seen so far and I know Water 7 is the favorite arc of many fans of the show. It condenses a lot of the best elements of it and is so fun to watch

-Thriller Bark DOES introduce the 9th Straw Hat, you can watch those episodes (337 and 338) but after that, I would go forward to Sabaody Archipelago (385-405) because it introduces some major plot points and characters and I feel like the positives of the Thriller Bark arc are outweighed by the negatives, imo.

-Impel Down has a lot of fun characters, but could be skipped and you could move onto Marineford (457-489). Definitely watch that to understand the story moving forward

-Post War Arc (490-516) is good to watch for Luffy backstory and what all the characters were doing during the time skip

-It doesn't seem like Fishman Island (523-574) really impacts the plot as a whole? (Someone can correct me if I'm wrong) So I think you could skip it.

-Punk Hazard (579-625) is fun and does set up the next arc (Dressrosa) so I might recommend watching that

I am watching Dressrosa (~Around episode 665 iirc) now so I can't speak past that! If anyone else sees this post, feel free to weigh in!

Thank you again for your kind message! ^.^ (I like your Dungeon Meshi icon - That's next on my list after I get through One Piece!)

As promised a while back to @fate-magical-girls, a (handmade, and therefore a little rough) translation of a small excerpt from the book Il Carme di Ildebrando: Un padre, un figlio, un duello ("The Song of Hildebrand: A father, a son, a duel") by Alessandro Zironi:

"4.1.1 Theodoric

Around the year 375, the Huns, moving from the Asian steppes, venture into the west and overwhelm the Ostrogoths, who are staying in the southern Russian plains. From that moment, until the death of king Attila (453) they'll be part of that congeries of peoples that goes, indeed, by the name Huns. Attila dies suddenly; his unexpected passing triggers centrifugal forces: the Ostrogoths, now, make themselves autonomous, led by three brothers. Just one year after the death of Attila, in 454, a son, Theodoric, is born to Theodemir. Our Theodoric. At the age of eight, he is sent as a hostage to Constantinople to seal a deal with the emperor: he stays there for a decade; soon after his return, after the death of his father and uncle, he becomes king. The years of his rule spent at the side of the Eastern Roman Empire, are quite troubled, a long period that concludes fifteen years later (489), when Theoderic with his people enters Italy, sent by emperor Zeno to conquer the peninsula from Odoacher, he who in 476 deposed Romulus Augustus, last emperor of the Western Roman Empire. Theoderic's Italian campaign starts off on the the right foot, as testified by his military victories on the Isonzo and, especially, in Verona. After these first assaults, though, the final victory is long-awaited: only in 493, after a three-year siege, he'll set foot in Ravenna capital of the Italic kingdom, thanks to the mediation of the city's bishop, who convinces the two contenders to rule jointly. Immediately after, however, Theoderic, by his own hand, kills Odoacher,, remaining the only sovereign, and he'll rule until his death, in 526, at the age of seventy-two.

Following this, the fate of the Goths in Italy swiftly goes downhill: nine yeas after, emperor Justinian will unleash a war for the conquest of Italy, that will conclude, with the Byzantine victory of 553, after eighteen years of devastation and the destruction of the peninsula. Theoderic is nonetheless esteemed, even by the Byzantine enemies, so much that the reinstatement of all property rights in Italy is traced back to his time. Soon enough, however, a hostile opinion on the sovereign forms, too, of which we already find traces in historical sources very close to his death, but is affirmed especially thanks to the words of Gregory the Great, who paints him as a persecutor of the Roman patricians, particularly Symmachus and Boethius, whom the Goth had sentenced to death for high treason. It's the same disparaging tradition found in the Anglo-Saxon world, surely not among the Longobards, who as we were saying were in close contact with the Goths, and whose sovereigns are related to the Amal dynasty.

Right away, the Theodorician biography starts cloaking itself in with episodes that have more to do with legendary transmission than with historical reality. But the tale, quickly become an integral part of the narrations focused on the king, is tied to the end of the Ostrogothic kingdom in Italy and to the political vicissitude of Theodoric, the only ruler we have memory of, the most prestigious. He is the Gothic king par excellence and so it is to him that the loss of the kingdom is connected. Such a defeat is not tied back to military events such as a long war but rather to an usurpation, which the Hildebrandslied attributes to Odoacher. The narrative mechanism, then, is that of a legitimate sovereign, in this case Theoderic, who loses his kingdom due to a fraudolent dethroning, on which are grafted subsequent attempts at a recapture.

At first sight, this upturning of historical reality appears curious, since it's Theoderic who forces out Odoacher, but there is a reasonable explanation. The historical vicissitude, according to some sources, see the Goth reach Italy after pressure from and deals made with the emperor of Constantinople to conquer the peninsula and reinstate the legality compromised by the usurper Odoacher. This justifiable diplomatic reading of the facts, once far from the intrigue in the palaces of Constantinople, finds, in later narrations, simpler motivations, according to which Theoderic would sit on a legitimate throne that belonged to other Goths before him; Odoacher is, then, labelled an usurper, but he dethrones Theoderic instead of the Westerner emperor. Theoderic is then forced into exile, and following that tries to recapture his own kingdom.

The loss of Italy, the exile and the attempts to recapture the royal seat are, in nuce, the fundamental themes that characterize all heroic-legendary narrations about Theoderic che the critique has grouped under the label "historical Theoderician epic", transcribed and composed, in the German area, starting from the XIII century. Still to the theme of Theoderic's exile is also tied his presence in Attila's court in the Nibelungic-Volsungic cycle, represented, in the German area, by the Nibelungenlied, and in the Nordic area by some heroic poems preserved through the Eddic collection. Therefore Germanic tradition in the German area frames the Gothic ruler in a context of tragedy and sorrow due to the loss of the kingdom and his companions (a trait, this one, that predominates in the Nibelungic-Volsungic narrations) and sees him as guest among Attila's Hunnish court. It is easy then to comprehend how history turned into legend: as Theoderic is the quintessential king of the Goths, so Attila is the only Hunnic sovereign heroic tradition remembers. So, when Theoderic loses his kingdom, it is among that people that he finds refuge and hospitality and from there he'll go on to recapture Italy.

There is then another, incredibly wide narrative tradition tied to the figure of Theoderic of an adventurous and fairy-tale-like tradition, mostly set in Italy, in the king's younger years, who dedicates himself to clashes and fights against giants and dwarves. Finally we must mention the Þiðrekssaga af Bern: it's a complex text, in many aspects epigonal, which gathers in one narration the most important cycles of continental Germanic tradition with at its core (but not exclusively focused on) the vicissitude of Theoderic and the Nibelungs. Among the numerous episodes, of particular relevance, for the relationships with the Hildebrandlied, is Theoderic's undercover entry in Italy with Hildebrand.

4.1.2 Odoacher

He's born two decades before Theoderic, around the year 433. Odoacher is mentioned by historiographical sources coeval to after the death of Attila. He accompanies powerful rulers who move on the chessboard of the by now dying, fragmented Western Roman Empire, both in Gaul and in Italy. His political and military ascent becomes more and more important, enough to reach the highest levels of the Roman warrio hierarcy. In 476 he deposes Romolus Augustus, becoming the only, undisputed ruler of the peninsula. His control over Italy is, in those tempsetuous times, rather long, 17 years, reaching 493, when Theoderic enters Ravenna. The sources remembers in various ways his murder; some suggest vengeful motives, others reasons of safeguard against plots, a last one hold Odoacher to be the victim of a betrayal. Theoderic's ruthlesness towards the enemy's kin is also remembered: his wife Sunigilda, for example, his made to starve.

Odoacher's figure, even if symbolically relevant from a historical point of view, having deposed the last Western emperor, did not find gret fortune in the Germanic literary tradition. He appears in the Hildebrandslied, where he's referred to as the cause of Theoderic and Hildebrand's exile, and is mentioned in a very late text, one of the printed versions (known as Ecken Auszfahrt, The death of Ecke, 1559) of the Eckenlied (Song of Ecke) which is part of the group of fairy-tale-like Theoderician narrations. At the end that poem is remembered how Odoacher deposes Romolus Augustus and takes control of the kingdom of Italy, until Theoderic defeats him.

Thus Odoacher knows no tradition outside of the vicissitude of Theoderic, to whom he's closely tied. His name will be lost quickly enough in the literary narrations, but we can follow his progressive oblivion. He's rapidly replaced, in his function as Theoderic's antagonist and the usurper of his kingdom, by Ermanaric, an Ostrogothic king who lived in the IV century, of whom on the other hand, legendary tales preserve a wide memory. Ermanic, it must be remembered, is in the Theoderician heroic tales Theoderic's uncle: the political conflict between king and usurper, a strong theme in the Hildebrandslied, is move to a more understandable family rivalry between uncle and nephew; after all, Germanic tales paint Ermanaric as an evil ruler even in narrative contexts not connected to the Theoderician cycle. The Annals of Quedlinburg still mention Odoacher, but he's not Theoderic's direct rival anymore: there, he's Ermanaric's evil advisor, who recommends exiling his nephew to the king. As the literary transmission goes on, Odoacher disappear, leaving the role of evil counselor to Sibeche. Finally in Kaiserchronik (Chronicle of the Emperors), a Middle High German work in verses with historiographical aspirations but actually with a good filling of heroic traditions, it is remembering that, on entering Northern Italy, he was defeated by Theoderic when he came back from his exile in the court of emperor Zeno. After that, nothing more, until the 1559 print of the Song of Ecke, but there the information is much more likely to come from historical sources rather than from a legendary tradition."

FRUITS BASKET, More Like FRUITS CROWN

Hello everyone. Gabriel Ramos of the New Gabe Order here, and I am announcing that FRUITS BASKET (2019): The Final Season won U-PICK No.4, and it will be joining the Saturday morning animation cram session lineup starting on June 1, 2024. It will be aired at 11 AM PDT as a "Hall of Fame" program since I ran the two FRUITS BASKET Marathons on May as the NGO Twitch episode premieres and Mother's Day celebration.

You do not have to take my word for it, because I have the lineups right here in case you missed out on the announcement before the episode 57 rerun.

If you were wondering why I have a Triple Threat of The Slayers episodes, this is because I previously stealth-premiered episodes 66 and 67 on April 1 via FUNimation Spotlight Show. These same episodes will be rerun on a Saturday morning prior to episode 68's premiere on the NGO Twitch channel. I figured I would bring The Slayers back since I finally finished the T3 premiere runs of Ninja Kamui and IGPX.

As for the other U-PICK Nominees, Bartender (2006)*, MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN Season 2, Hell's Paradise (Jigokuraku), and SMILING FRIENDS are confirmed for T3 Express and all but MAWS Season 2 will be premiering on May 31 with future blocks being held every Friday afternoon in America and Canada, as well as every Saturday morning in Japan. MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN Season 2 will land on the T3 Express starting June 7, 2024, replacing the duplicate SAILOR MOON (1992) slot.

Like SAILOR MOON, Bartender contains educational and informational (E/I) content, and will be aired first before the main course of T3 Express programming. There will be a chance the SAILOR MOON episode won't have any "Sailor Says" educational segments, as I lost most of the DiC cuts when I misplaced my SAILOR MOON Season 1 Volume 1 DISC. Once I find that DISC, hopefully I can restore the rest of the "Sailor Says" segments to prove that SAILOR MOON is worthy of its E/I status.
