Anime Iowa 2022, Sunday
Well. After writing what feels like a fair amount for Friday and Saturday, I don’t really have a lot to report for Sunday. We checked out of the hotel around 10:00 and headed to the convention, mainly to wander around. I was hoping to take some cosplay photos – for whatever reason, it feels like I take fewer and fewer cosplay photos each year, despite the number of amazing cosplays I see. I don’t know if it’s because my social anxiety got worse with COVID shutting down so many events, or if it’s because I’m spending more time trying to actually document panels so I remember what I did, or what. We did get some photos, but most of our time Sunday was divided between one panel and the Marketplace.
But oh, that panel.
It was on yaoi/BL media and folks I got to see a yaoi paddle in person! I am ashamed to admit I was rather excited by that.
In my defense, while I knew of them, it’s been long enough now that I honestly couldn’t say if I saw one in person before. They were beginning to disappear from cons at the same time that I began attending them.
If you aren’t familiar with yaoi paddles, they’re a relic of fandom past and Red Bard did an excellent video essay on them.
The panel was pretty informative – and it didn’t just cover Japanese works. Chinese and Korean works were discussed as well, with a broader overview of how the genre took hold in each respective market. At times, conversations between the panelist and panel attendees revealed more information than the panelists’ slides themselves. I really should have been taking notes – I feel weird doing so, but on the other hand, it’s clear I don’t always retain the information after some time has passed.
I do remember the (semi) serious discussion about how much Naruto could be considered a boys’ love title. Yes, more supporting evidence was provided beyond the infamous kissing scene between Naruto/Sasuke.
There were slides with lists of the most popular titles that had been discussed during the panel. I did manage to take photos of those, so there’s that at least.
For our second actual shopping trip through the Marketplace, we added many new prints to our collection from the different artists on site.
I bought several buttons from one vendor and ended up with my first ever badge ribbon that I can recall getting. (Watch someone will find a previous con entry where I mention getting one)
I really haven’t seen badge ribbons much before, other than reviews of cons on the East Coast. I was happy to get one.
With prints, buttons, and other swag weighing us down, we left Anime Iowa at about 1300 (1pm). There were still a few hours of the con left, but we did have to drive back home and I had work the next day, so I wanted some downtime. And so we said goodbye to Anime Iowa 2022.
For all Anime Iowa 2022 posts

Dig a Grave to Dig Out a Ghost - Chapter 13
Original Title: 挖坟挖出鬼
Genres: Drama, Horror, Mystery, Supernatural, Yaoi
This translation is based on multiple MTLs and my own limited knowledge of Chinese characters. If I have made any egregious mistakes, please let me know.
Chapter Index
Chapter 13 - Doubt
In the archaeological internship Lin Yan participated in, the Ming Tomb was undoubtedly a very peculiar place. The excavation work lasted three months. Before the excavation started, Lin Yan didn't even get any relevant background information. He asked his professor several times but never got a response. When he was told that would be staying at the tomb for only a week, he thought he was coming to be the team's water boy. Instead, he was unexpectedly sent to the site as soon as the plane touched down and was given one of the most important jobs of cleaning the body found in the main room of the tomb.
It was a medium-sized underground mysterious tomb. Bluestone blocks were built into arches. The apse in the room was about forty meters long. A large black lacquered coffin left slightly ajar rested peacefully on the stone platform. Lin Yan and the rest of the crew held their breath together. When the golden nanmu wood coffin lid was slowly lifted, and the gold, silver, jade and rosy brocade around the corpse were exposed, a soft cheer erupted from the tomb. Everyone couldn't help but celebrate that they found such an magnificent mausoleum that had been left completely untouched by tomb robbers. After a long while, all nonessential personnel evacuated one by one. Lin Yan remembered that the professor was the last one to leave the scene. When he left, he rested his hand heavily on his shoulders, as if he wanted to say something but never ended up getting anything out. In the empty and dark main room of the tomb, only Lin Yan and a few lights, both bright and dim, were left. Sometimes, the miner's lamp was often extinguished inexplicably. He later recalled that the owner of the tomb might have been watching him ever since then.
The corpse in the coffin had rotted into a skeleton, but the hair that remained was soft and shiny. However, when Lin Yan sat alone by the coffin and skimmed through some history books, doubts arose. The identity of the owner of the tomb was like the bronze of this mysterious palace, unrecognizable under the green rust. There was no record, no genealogy, nothing even mentioned in town and county chronologies. The tomb's eternal light placed in front of the coffin had long been dried up, and a two-foot-long black name card behind it was coated with thick old blood. The place where the name should be written was empty, and it turned out to be a non-character memorial tablet.
When the last artifact in the coffin was successfully taken out, Lin Yan was told he could return. It only took them seven days and no one had ever told him about the origin of the tomb that whole time.
The sun was shining on Friday morning, and the roses in the flower bed were rushing to bloom. There was a soft fragrance of something oily like burning opium in the air. Lin Yan parked his car at the school gate and hurried through the small square in front of the building to get to the professor's office. He was in such a rush that he went through the ground fountain in the square. After he took a few steps, bells and drums started playing and spurts of water shot from the jets, the surrounding area immediately turning into a forest of water columns shooting up.
"Shit. . ." He couldn't dodge them and got completely soaked. Lin Yan internally cursed as he rushed forward, wringing out the hem of his shirt. A few school girls had just come out of the main entrance of the building and giggled at the embarrassing scene.
Lin Yan blushed a little.
Shiny drops of water splashed off his hair and a droplet fell into his eye. When he raised his hand to wipe it away, his wrist was caught by someone. The cold fingertips wiped the drop off one of his eyelashes. Lin Yan blinked and stood there silently.
When he walked up the steps, he saw a new large poster on the left side of the automatic door. A gentle-looking middle-aged man with glasses was holding a pen, and his demeanour resembled an unopened folder in a stationery store. There was a large line next to him: Chen XX, a well-known Chinese history professor, is coming to our school to give a lecture. All students are welcome to participate. This will be a great chance to interact with the professor.
The tune played was one typically used by the Propaganda Department, the following rows of small letters are written with the specific time and content of the event. Lin Yan struggled to twist the hem of the wet T-shirt and walked towards the hall, muttering that this was probably the reason that the fountain suddenly turned on. Turning back, he frowned and stood in front of the poster for a minute. He always felt that the man on the poster was a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was. After thinking about it for a while, Lin Yan shook his head and stepped through the hall.
The professor's office was on the fourth floor.
"Professor, are you kidding me? From the preliminary preparations to the end of the tomb excavation, so many people participated in it. How could it be possible that nothing about the tomb owner's origins could be found until now?"
"That tomb was already considered to be average to wealthy for the time period. Even if the owner of the tomb was not of official origin, there is always a record in historical records for wealthy businessmen."
University institutions were never busy on Fridays. Everyone was waiting for the weekend. Lin Yan’s professor was no exception. He was sitting in the office with his legs crossed when the drenched student burst into his office. Behind the table, he held a heavy purple sand teacup in his hand. Because he often went to the West in his early years, his skin was wrinkled by the wind and frost. His midsection was blessed by some middle-aged fat, and the bags under the eyes were hanging loosely behind the glasses.
The professor grew impatient with Lin Yan's aggressive tone, and patted a stack of books on the table: "Isn't that so? You see, I'm more worried about writing a report on the excavation. I've been busy for more than a month and I haven't made any progress."
Lin Yan leaned forward impatiently with his hands on the glass plate of the tabletop: "The mausoleum was left untouched. The body and burial items were intact. Isn't it possible to determine the identity of the tomb owner?"
This student had always been known for his politeness and patience. It was rare for him to be this anxious.
"That's the problem. Comparing the data compiled based on the unearthed cultural relics with the records at the time, I can only say that he's completely unknown." The professor put down the cup and tapped his finger on the cover of the book a few times: "Ming Dynasty history is not my specialty. Tell me, why don't you do some research yourself? The students in our school must be able to research independently. You should make good use of the school library resources."
Lin Yan shook his head disappointedly. Just like the professor said, there was a lot of historical data to go through. He wouldn't make any progress in the next three months. Even three years might not be enough time to go through all the information. By then, he would have run out of ten lives. What's more, he has searched through the relevant history books of the library for the past week and even asked Yin Zhou to search through the database in less legal ways, but the strange thing is that no matter what keywords they use - the age, name, location - he couldn't find any information. It was common sense that, in ancient times, even a talented person would be written about somewhere in the county annals, but this Xiao Yu was like a person from another world. The records passed over him like he had never existed.
The faint scent of book pages and wood was floating in the air, and the light blue shutters broke up the rays of sun leaking in. Lin Yan subconsciously glanced back, as if there should be a companion waiting to respond to his doubts. But Xiao Yu does exist, he thought.
Trying his best to stay calm, Lin Yan lowered his head and lowered his voice: "Teacher, this is really important to me, can you help. . ." While speaking, his gaze was fixed on the table. Under the glass plate were many old photos of the professor when he was young. There was a row of people wearing work clothes and hard hats in the black-and-white pictures. Compared to the middle-aged man with swollen eyes in front of him, there was a strange sense of contradiction in the gray-headed but happy-looking man in the pictures.
Time really did wonders.
The instructor tapped two fingers on the table. He didn't look at Lin Yan when he spoke. His eyes were a little dodged: "Why do you need to know the owner of the tomb? Do you need to write a paper?"
Lin Yan took a deep breath. He had always had a keen insight into people's emotions. When he had been sorting through clues last night, the situation that occurred in the tomb flashed in his mind. He had already had his doubts at the time, but he was so nervous and excited that he didn't think too much of it. For example, ever since he joined the team, everyone had been keeping secrets, and the professor also looked at him with that dodgy look when the excavators all left the tomb. The whole thing seemed to have been arranged long ago, so Lin Yan hadn't cared about interrupting the teacher's off-time and grabbed the phone to set up a meeting time.
"Professor, you should know why; this is a matter of life and death." After hesitating for a moment, Lin Yan frowned and said this sentence with emphasis. He pressed his hands on the table hard and turned away.
When I walked to the door of the office. He paused, one, two. . . Lin Yan counted silently in his heart.
Three.
"Wait." The professor's voice sounded from behind.
"Lin Yan, this project isn't under my control. I just heard that a lot of strange things happened when the tomb was opened. Someone came to me and asked you to go. I didn't agree with it. . . If you really want to know more, you can go ask the coordinator of the excavation yourself." The finger tapped twice on the desk. "His name is Chen, he'll be at our school next Monday for a lecture. There are posters downstairs." After speaking, he took a few volumes from the neatly arranged books and put them back on the table, gesturing that he could leave. "You can get more out of him than me"
"Last question." Lin Yan held the door frame and poked his face in: "Teacher, do you know Xiao Yu?"
"No, I don't." The answer was quick this time: "Who's that?"
Lin Yan sighed and held the railing as he quickly walked downstairs.

Can I be childish for a moment and just ask if it’s irrational that I’m a little mad at the Overwatch fandom? Like they’ve slandered the hell out of Soldier 76 since pretty much the game was released, and now he’s gay he’s a sudden icon and nothing is wrong with him? Idk. It just unsettles me I guess that being gay suddenly makes his entire MO change? I’m super stoked he’s LGBT now and I love the representation! I’m just a bit sad over how that seems to be the ONLY reason he’s liked now?
Is itirrational, as well as childish, to feel apprehensive over how people treatedyou for having a liking on soldier76 before, back when it was deemed uncool tolike “a boring het, racist and homophobic white” man?
No.
Is itirrational, as well as childish, to feel apprehensive over people likingsoldier76 because he is gay “now”?...
Yes, exceptit’s not irrational and you have every right to feel apprehensive about it - Theactual debate is rooted to my first paragraph on how Soldier76 was read asbefore by the majority of the tumblr community (yes I’m coming for your wigs) andhow his fans were clearly delusional, and just about all of the the usualtumblr anthropology lingo attributes to white “slice of bread” men that don’tfit the stereotypical yaoi ships everyone loves to fetishize.
But Zee, clearly you don’t expect us to believepeople would hate anon you about liking soldier76 who was a huge racisthomophobe. Except peopledid message me that even though Soldier76 was never homophobic, or racist. Yet,wasn’t that the recurring theme? A lot of white people on tumblr seem to loveto hate white characters because that’s woke as heck and that’s how you endracism, right? If you’re white and yousay you hate white characters in front of a mirror three times on a Friday nightyou are not racist forever and you have a free pass to fetishize Genji andevery east-Asian male character you weirdly obsess about, right?
There seemsto be an accepted long tradition within tumblr communities of scrutinizinginterracial couples in fanwork too and dissecting it down to racialdiscrimination based only on the fact that one of the characters is white. Thekeyword here is fan – fan portrayal should not in any way affect the way acharacter or in this case a ship is perceived but most people can’t seem to separate fan work from the real source.Reaper76, Pharmercy, Mchanzo are only a few examples of ships that are oftenregarded as racist and/or problematic based on the fact that someone made badfan content about them.
Althoughother ships have equally racist and other dubious themes in fanwork you don’thear about how transphobic it is, for example, to simply like Genji, despitethe extensive collection of trans-fetishization he’s subjected to in AO3 andyou don’t get called a racist for liking McCree despite a lot of latino/mixedMcCree fan content reducing him to a very detrimental stereotype of latino men.
As I see ityou have two choices here: you either claim a whole character/ship to be problematicbecause you found a piece of fan work that you deem to be/is problematic andharass everyone who posts or even mentions that ship ever again and thy shallburn on the stake for your sins witch, or you can message the person whocreated the fan work directly and explain the thought process of why and howthey can improve their work and posteriorly themselves because we need to startthinking globally and the many consequences of bad representation/portrayal.But expecting everyone to be part of the “woke” movement is a littleunrealistic given that we’re all very different people from different cultureswith different backgrounds – some people never even had contact with thecultures they try to portray on their work and most probably are not even fullyadults; obviously that doesn’t make it ok to publish certain things, but iftheir work is based on innocent unawareness then the least you can do is try toeducate them, unless of course that’s not your job and it’s so much easier tosend anon hate messages to people who talk about the ship and/or character.
I’ll saythis though: if you don’t like a ship, for whatever reason it is, you haveevery right to unfollow and tag to hide the content – heck, maybe the ship ISbad? (I will not get in what makes a ship bad but I’m obviously referring topeople who enjoy seeing, say, a minor and an adult together) but if you’regoing to harass someone who posts about or simply reblogs about a ship youthink it’s problematic for the reasons I mentioned previously then you’re agoblin who abuses the anon feature way too much.
With thatsaid, to everyone who made bad racist content despite being an adult who shouldknow better by now: fuck you.
The subjectof debate isn’t about it being bad to like and support gay soldier76 because he’sgay “now” – no, the way I see it, it’s the least those people can do. Theactual subject of debate is people slandering a character for nothing else thangetting a white hetero piñata to kick so everybody knows how not racist andhomophobic they are and using deceptive claims such as framing it around problematicfan content that has nothing to do with the actual character and/or ship.
So how dowe go from here? Should we just forget everything and move on and let peopleappreciate a character because he’s gay? Yes, why not? If actual homophobicpeople are going to hate soldier76 because he’s gay then why can’t the oppositesimultaneously happen as well? Obviously a character should not be built aroundhis sexuality – Hey, Glee – but it’s definitely not wrong to start appreciatinga character more because of it and honestly I feel people are way more intoSoldier76 being a soldier who sacrificed his relationship in order to giveVincent the happy life soldier76 knew he couldn’t provide, and the happy lifehe thought Vincent deserved. To me that character arc was a side of soldier76most people didn’t seem to be even aware of but then again, with the few lorehints we get here and there I’m not expecting everyone to figure it outdirectly.
It’s ok tolike a character because he’s gay, and it’s equally ok to feel frustrated thateveryone who used to mock you for liking the macho corn eating bread Morrison isnow on the hype gay train but let’s just be glad and thankful there is a trainand that we’re not riding it alone anymore, right?

TransformFriday
Okay, this is an idea that I've been meditating for a long time but I think now is the perfect time to carry it out. Because my favorite comic book (Transformers MTMTE-LL) will soon come to an end, I have decided to carry out this idea: my own Top Ten of favorite transformers... drawing version! The truth is that the end of MTMTE and LL generates me many mixed emotions: on the one hand I am happy because at last I will be able to know the end of the story and I will not observe how my favorite series becomes the next infinitetale (I will not say names ... but we all know who they are ...) but on the other hand I'm so sad about it. This is a story that has marked me and I know that when the comic ends I will no longer be the same person as before. This (at least for me) is a special moment, comparable to when Inuyasha, Death Note and Evangelion ended. I remember fondly when I started reading it: back then I still had the hype of transformers prime and I was looking for more things about it and then a friend in a forum recommended Transformers More Than Meets the Eye and I started reading it (specifically I got it in chapter 18, the house of ambus) and I was speechless with what I found. All the characters were so similar and at the same time so different from everything I already knew. I remember how I was surprised by the lore and all the mythology that had been assembling around the transformable robots and seeing how a world was created so unique and credible with such a cliche premise and yet I fell completely in love with it. I hallucinated with neurosurgery and empurata, I loved how action and psychology were balanced in about 20 pages in such a harmonious way, and the characters ... my god, the characters! I love how James Roberts takes you by the hand and makes you walk the halls of lost light with his characters, I remember being so sad with Tailgate's disease, getting excited about the battle between cyclones and Starsaber, to love and hate the same time to Tarn for his personality, to be moved for the scavengers, the evolution of rodimus and Megatron. For my Transformers it has not been another series of my childhood. James Roberts and Alex Minle have taught me what someone can do with dedication, hard work and a lot of imagination and their comics are not an empty reading. Thanks to this story I have learned so many important lessons from life and myself, I have come to learn how strong and courageous I can be. Thanks to MTMTE I was encouraged to write and draw my first comic, I learned that the hardest It is forgiveness to yourself, I have learned that it is not bad to ask for help and how powerful teamwork is, thanks to TMTMTE I wrote my degree thesis ... My God I can say it, Thanks to Transformers I got graduated! And finally, thanks to MTMTE transformers I still find the strength to continue doing what I like, which is to draw. That's why I decided to celebrate these last months of Transformers drawing my ten favorite characters and of course explaining why every Friday (of course the position 1 and 2 already know them, I'll leave you below the links if you're interested) because the end of this wonderful saga will also mark the end of a stage of my life and is that the truth, without TMTMTE I would be a completely different person and that is why it is and always will be one of my favorite series.
Top Ten
1.-Prowl
If you have read any of the wreckers comics then you know that Prowl is a bastard. He is not a noble, kind, or honest hero, I can not even call him good. Actually Prowl is a villain who "fortunately" plays for the good side. If I had to define Prowl in a word that would be hate. He hates the decepticons, he hates the new cybertron, he hates his leader/friends for not listening him, even I think that sometimes he hates himself, his life and especially his failures and that's why I love it. I love the contradiction and the final message of Prowl: hatred has turned him into what he most detests. Ironically, Prowl is more decepticon than many cons and at the same time that hate is the fuel that drives him to improve every new plan and fight for a future and a peace that may get to destroy him. He is cruel, manipulative and ruthless but also has moments of weakness and even compassion ................. although he is still a bastard and has not been able to overcome his ex-boyfriend. I love Prowl because he is not a character, he is a person, he is very real and very human and the world and his own decisions have made him into what he is today.
2.- Starscream
Leaving megatron aside, my favorite decepticon is Starscream. Either in comics or in the animated series Screamer always amuses me and always manages to make me smile ... basically because I love to see him fail in everything he does. I do not joke, either bad luck or his own ambition always make him fail. If Prowl is hatred, Starscream is ambition. he reminds me a little the homuncle of FMAB Greed, he wants it all, power, wealth, fame, fear, respect and especially the decepticon leadership.
He knows he is the best option to be the leader of the decepticons and he is an incredibly ruthless person who does not hesitate to lie, murder and manipulate everyone to meet their own whims but like Prowl Star is much more than just ambition. I'm not going to say that he's not so bad or he can redeem himself or some stupidity of the style (I really hate that) but Starscream has a reason to be like that. He is an incredibly lonely person who has struggled to survive before, during and after the war. He has learned that he can not count on anyone because sooner or later they will betray him and that is why he only sees the people around him as pawns. He's logic: if you do not approach or attach to anyone they can not betray you. deep down he knows that sooner or later his bad deeds will overtake him and he must prepare himself.
And yet Starscrean has virtues as great as his flaws: he is incredibly determined and hardworking, when he wants something he does not skimp on resources, time or effort in getting it, he is extremely intelligent (probably not as much as Prowl but he is a force to have in account) and he always learns from his mistakes. I would say that's why he has had such a long reign in comics and even has moments of humanity and genuine compassion. Maybe he really wants to redeem himself ... but he knows that he is beyond all salvation and that for him it is too late.
3.-Cyclonus
The truth is that this is a character that I find it hard to talk about, basically because he is someone I love so much and I identify so much that I block myself.
I will start strong: Cyclonus is my perfect waifu, he is a revision to the classic stereotype of the solitary warrior and constantly reminds us that every age, however dark or terrible it may have been, created beauty. Fuck, Cyclonus loves any form of art: music, writing, architecture and also he is a killing machine that can slice just about anyone, what else could you ask for? And in spite of him being so cultured he has a huge darkness inside him, of course Cy is fully aware of that and always tries to channel it ... with mixed results.
But the truth is that the feature with which I most identify with cyclonus is his sense of honor and loyalty, that is something that resonates a lot with me. The moment that I see Cyclonus is willing to do him on the side in order to ensure the happiness of the person he loves the most is something that makes my throat tighten. Besides that his relationship with Tailgate is the best yaoi I've read, let's be honest and he has the best sentence ever written. you want to know? You will have to read the comic because the spoiler is not from God.
4.- Megatron
Of course Megsi was to be in my topten, he is almost a god in my pantheon (sorry optimus). I love all the incarnations of Megatron except for the transformers prime novel (seriously, a revolutionary who hates the primes but he wants to be a prime …. what the hell?) But my favorite so far is the IDW Megatron , he is a very complex character that goes through different stages: fallen, self-discovery, acceptance, temptation, redemption … all a carousel of emotions. He pass from being a ruthless murderer to a pacifist in constant conflict with himself. Although my favorite aspect about megatron is its moral: we all deserve a second chance … but redeption is not as easy as bowing your head and apologizing. Throughout MTMTE and LL Megs works every minute of his life to redeem his mistakes even when he knows they are too big and as he advances towards his death he knows perfectly well that there is a possibility that no one will forgive him but that does not stop him. Megatron words always resonate strongly within me: We are all work in progress.
5.- RungMy second perfect waifu and a cinnamon roll too pure for this world. Rung is the most adorable autobot ever drawn … until he takes off his glasses and becomes the greatest latinlover ever created. But leaving aside my inclination for robots, Rung is an incredible character, I know that many joke about the theory which says that Rung is the self-inception of Roberts, but I think that rather Rung is the connection with the reader. He is a character that has been kept at bay from most problems by having a very convenient good luck, he is skinny, short, lovable, sometimes too much kind and he prefers conversation rather than confrontation but he is not weak On the contrary, Rung has incredible mental and emotional strength. he has not only endured that everyone, absolutely ALL mispronounce his name at least once, Rung listens to the problems and confessions of others around him to make a living; he literally knows the worst of all, he knows the darkness that dwells within each of his companions … and that never stops him from helping or comforting others. If I had to define the role of Rung in some archetype that would be the maternal one. Of course there are parents in fiction who are loving and protective, but the mother figure always ends up being kinder, the comforter and the one that drives you to improve and that is precisely the raxon for which I love Rung.I have met many maternal characters but what makes the difference with Rung (besides being male) is the moment in which (spoiler alert) during the kidnapping of Fortress Maximus, Rewind reproduces a part of the torture in Garrus 9 and Max, realizing that he is doing exactly the same as Overlord and reliving those horrible memories, he throws himself to the ground to mourn and Rung, with a patience of a saint, despite the kidnapping and even though Max had yanked his thumb out… he surrounds him with a kind arm and tells him that everything will be fine and everything ends for today. That’s something my mother could have done.Because deep down Rung is that, he is kindness and he teaches us the strength found in compassion and as the functionalist universe demonstrates, Rung possesses incredible strength of character and determination and he is capable of giving his life to save those who he care … and that’s a large number of people.
