The loss of Toriyama-Sensei hit me hard. I cried the evening I heard the news, like losing a family member, even though I never had the honor in meeting him.

Like every other artist, his influence is astronomical. DBZ was the highlight of my day as I got back from school and dropped in front of the TV to watch the next episode with hype, to then talk about it at school with my friends. We would scream our lungs out with the power levels and try to do the Fusion dance, which was hard to do btw. Being a girl liking DBZ wasn’t weird, even by that time, although I was the only girl at school who loved anime. 😂

I remember watching Rebirth of Fusion over and over as a friend gave me a VHS copy (since that was hard to get anime stuff back in the 90’s unlike today). I watched it so much I didn’t need to read the wonky yellow subtitles and I could tell the movie word by word in Japanese. I would NEVER imagine watching Dragon Ball on the big screen, that movie was Dragon Ball Super: Broly.

I grew up with DBZ in Spanish, English and Japanese. I know the songs in three languages. It’s insane to me the amount of figures that I own of Dragon Ball. Mainly Vegita and Broly. I gotta get me a SSG Gojita now.

I haven’t drawn DBZ style since junior-high. I hope I made you proud Sensei! 🙏🏼

Toriyama-Sensei, thank you.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything and I hope you have fun with Kentaro-Sensei and Kazuki-Sensei in the afterlife. 💙

I still love these two... ❤️💕

Like even if this Lelouch still didn't have his memories and soul, he still unconsciously cares about Kallen and was drawn to want to comfort her when he sees that Kallen was troubled about him.

Same as when moments earlier when Kallen and C.C. fought and Lulu was like... in his moeness tried to stop them from fighting ❤️❤️

Rolo over the years

28th September is when Turn 25 “Re;” first aired, and together with Lost Stories also wrapping up R2 in its latest update, I’ve been remembering just how I miss what Code Geass was like before the year 2012ish. Rolo has been, in my opinion, treated worse since then.

Apologies in advance, as I'm going to complain, but I want to share what I remember about a time which may be forgotten or unknown to younger fans:

Before Akito, Code Geass’ “canon” story was mainly the 50 episodes of the anime. Picture/Illust Dramas, season 1 Sound Episodes (R2 SEs mostly stopped being serious) and official publications here and there were also part of the canon, but beyond that, comics like Majiko’s, Nightmare of Nunnally, or videogames such as Lost Colors diverged sufficiently from the anime to be clearly treated as AU spin-offs. Code Geass ended with Lelouch dying, and despite plenty of “the cart driver is Lelouch” theories, the creators themselves stated that Lelouch was dead (can’t remember the source, but it’s probably well documented somewhere). I miss when Lelouch stayed dead, not just as a Rolo fan, but because that’s what made the story bittersweet. That’s what made Continued Story a song I personally couldn’t listen to. All the fanarts of the characters being happy together when you knew Lelouch never got to experience that… It was sad, but in a pretty way. And yet, I guess many viewers do like Lelouch resurrecting, considering that both Lost Stories and Rozé follow that canon. For me, watching L.L. do nothing but speak in cryptic messages with C.C. is sadder than accepting his death, and not the “pretty” kind this time, but the “Lelouch was forcibly turned into someone who isn’t him” kind of sad. As for Rolo, during R2, Lelouch lived for 5 more episodes after Rolo’s death. And in such a brief period, he remembered Rolo as many as 5 times: Turn 20 preview, when Rivalz asked in Turn 20, Turn 21 preview, Turn 24 when Lelouch recalls the people who sought happiness, Turn 25 when his life flashes before his eyes. Back around 2008~2010, believing Rolo had become important to Lelouch was easy. Hikari (summary) was canon. Kiseki no Tanjoubi most likely isn’t, but Lelouch and Rolo had the main roles and Lelouch worries when Rolo gets tired. New official illustrations were still being released. The Special Edition Zero Requiem was dedicated to Shirley and Rolo because they inspired Lelouch’s Zero Requiem plan. That’s a lot of Rolo attention coming not just from the staff, but Lelouch himself. Yet resurrected!Lelouch doesn't remember Rolo again! Except for maybe just once, when Rolo and Euphy were saving him… and unfortunately for me, he uses kimitachi, which implies he was addressing Euphy (he would have used omaetachi with Rolo)… 😭 I also gacha'd Emperor Lelouch a couple days ago, hoping to find ロロ in any of his lines, but nothing. Code Geass’s canon expanding after R2 mostly took good things away from Rolo, and added bad things: -Akito and Oz both did damage to Rolo and Lelouch’s meeting. When only R2 existed, we assumed that Rolo had met Lelouch very shortly after Charles’ Geass, and that Rolo and Lelouch spent a whole year together. Akito shortened their happy year because Lelouch now needed to be Julius first, and Oz introduced Clara, who, turns out, was actually the initial choice to replace Nunnally instead of Rolo?! And even though I don’t think she even got to meet Lelouch, I don’t like how Rolo was no longer *the* Nunnally replacement. Since Rolo mentions unmei in Arabesque, I think he would have preferred to believe Lelouch and him were “destined” to meet -Couldn’t Benio and Savitri's stories be told without involving Rolo negatively? Did he need more sins? Ohgi and Nina have been redeemed in recent years, while Rolo… didn’t kill Shirley in the movies, but in the Fukkatsu manga and Lost Stories he did, so I still feel like he killed Shirley in the Fukkatsu canon -We don't talk about GeaGene -Mario/Maya ruining Rolo’s sacrifice There’s another piece of knowledge seemingly lost to time, which is that those pictures of Lelouch and Rolo aren't official. You know the ones. They were drawn by Yukie Sakou, who WAS an official animator/illustrator, but she released Anniversary & Memorial on her own. I've seen misinformed comments... Something else about Fukkatsu: I liked C.C. better when she wanted to live and be happy without depending on the protagonist for it. But if C.C. fans disagree, they certainly know her better than I do.

Day 2: Rain of Rain Code Week.

(This Entry will contain spoilers for post-game and imagining of mine. Be warned)

At top of Kanai Tower. Makoto was listening to the several calls he gotten by the Unified Government, answering them and talking with them even. Explaining and suggesting ideas for the betterment and development of Kanai Ward.

There, someone knocked at the door. The CEO looked over to who could it be now as he spoke to them "You can come in." Having finished talking on a call, letting the person in as it was a white haired boy with a kitsune mask on.

"Um, Mr. Makoto. Can I talk with you please?" They asked, heading over to the couch carefully and removing their mask of theirs, showing eyes of green as they sat down. "Ah, Cessair. Good Rain to you, I suppose your doing well as the new Section Chief?" Makoto asked to him.

He nodded in response to the CEO as he replied "I am, but um... can I ask of something?" This made Makoto curious, what did Cessair want to ask about? "Hm? Sure. Go on, I can wait."

"Um... Can I ask about the rain? Why would it always rain but not snow, you can control it. Right?" The new section chief said as it made the bleached blonde was surprised by the question that was asked to him. Thinking about it for awhile on the answer to it.

Makoto nodded as he responded with a answer to the question "Oh, that's quite easy. The rain clouds are usually used to let the citizens of Kanai Ward live normally due to what they are. Though, I could try with changing the weather while making sure to keep them away from the sun's ray and light." He then continued as he questioned back "Why do you ask though? Is something on your mind?"

Cessair thought for awhile, being reminded of why he wanted to ask about it as spoke "O-Oh, it's because... I wanted to let the others enjoy what winter is like, since it was a long time I experienced it here in Kanai Ward during December." The CEO nodded while listening "I see..."

"I could temporarily let it snow for the time being, would it work with you?" Makoto asked as the new section chief nodded in agreement "Yeah. It's.. Fine that way." The CEO smiled to the response "Ok then. I'll get to work on that one then."
