#in my hater arc

[writinginthenight]

It’s been a long time since you looked at me like that.

Maybe I’m remembering you, or perhaps wanting what you gave me.

Your gaze went unreturned, I was as confused as you were lost in my eyes.

Is there a world where I could look at you fondly?

I don’t even love you in my dreams anymore.

That’s how it should be.

at least I don’t wake up sad.

Episode 2 of uzumaki was fine I suppose. I’m not saying it’s shit or the show is shit. It’s definitely still really cool and I will absolutely keep watching. I just have some criticisms is all!

The show continues to feel random and disjointed with an awkward pace, things just kinda happen out of nowhere. Massive “however” though: that’s also a criticism I had with the original comic since it’s an anthology about an unexplained curse ruining things any way it can (that does mean it’s kinda the point of the story and I’m being petty but still wanted to mention it)

The snake thing wasn’t foreshadowed like it was in the comic, it kinda just happened even more so than it did originally. I think if after one of the punches we got the twisted up torso shot or if they had that “like last time” line (I watched dub so maybe it was in sub idk) it would’ve made a tad more sense. We did see the snakes themselves so it’s not like it was completely out of left field but idk I just really liked the slow buildup in the comic

I don’t understand why the bodies in the lighthouse were in color. I can’t say for sure since yknow I only saw the actual version of the show, but I wonder if it would’ve been more striking in black and white instead of jarring. All I remember is the color, not many other details

I’m also wondering why they put this in color instead of anything else? It was clearly to emphasize the gory burns but then… why not make shuichis moms finger mutilation red? What about asami (azami?) having a giant hole in her head with an eyeball and its nerves and veins being torn from its socket? Why were nameless already dead bodies red but not major characters actively getting butchered?

The animation was nowhere near as stellar as the first episode. However, im giving the benefit of the doubt that that’s possibly because this is the second episode. It’s not the pilot so they don’t need to focus on hooking the audience, and it’s before shit really flies off the rails so not much is happening. I’m assuming they just didn’t allocate as much time and resources to this episode compared to more important ones, but I can’t know for sure till more episodes come out of course

Those were all my thoughts during/right after watching (wrote them on discord so I know lmao). I’m sitting here reaching for more things to be upset about (like Shuichi barely being in this one… who cares? He’s the deuteragonist, and iirc even in the comic he spent most of the time holed up at home or dumping exposition before fucking off) but I don’t really wanna do that. I still think it’s awesome, just that the second episode was a bit of a low point! I’m still very excited to see what’s in store in the next two episodes!!

i guess these are the 'good' gay people everyone's been talking about. not one ounce of chemistry between them. id rather be queerbaited than be forced to endure the bachelor but with political ramifications

I dislike like 90% of my art in my art tag that's so cool

I feel fandom would get along a lot better if there was mutual understanding that liking a character, agreeing with a character, and thinking the character is well constructed/executed are all separate (if often overlapping) positions, each with their separate tastes and subjectivities. Also: character portrayals are intended to make the audience feel things; this is separate from (if often overlapping with) analyzing/appreciating their actions and role in the story.

if you can't draw a character's big, hooked, bumped, or crooked nose i dont think you should be drawing that character

it's finally done, and it's probably the gooiest garbage i'll ever make.

credit to my new buddy @i-love-tdp-if-you-can-tell for doing almost all the characters' flat colors!! i am so so so infinitely thankful to them bc otherwise none of the other efforts of making this would have happened. between the lineart, backgrounds, shading, and touch-ups, these five pages have taken years off numerous braincells' lifespans, and without their help, may have annihilated my entire brain capacity.

if you like, please reblog! we put in a Lot of time and effort into this!

you would think that between last time (one other event) i tried comic-ing and now, i would've learned to not handwrite the text, but alas...

thank you for answering my plead for help, sky! and for managing to work around my design inconsistencies and sketchy lineart <3 ik you said you didn't need anything, but if you ever decide you want an art, hit me up any time :)

and to the tdp fandom, whoops… sorry for all the requests rotting in my inbox. it was a fun september and a fun six years of lurking, but alas i think i will be bailing for the moment. maybe you'll see me around.

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will

what gets me abt the scene where jayce says he “never asked for this” to vik is that like

viktor never asked for this either?

vik specifically asked jayce to destroy the hexcore, yet here he is breathing bc of it

he was SO against making weapons w hextech, yet the blueprints were right there on the desk

like i know we joke abt vik getting the first 8hr sleep of his life and deciding he doesnt need his situationship anymore but if i had only ever asked of two (2) things of my partner and they betray them the moment shit goes sideways id pack it up too

taking a deep breathe and trying to let the rage leave my body when I see killer being portrayed as obsessed with dust for some reason

gritting my teeth when killer is yet again portrayed as a sex maniac in driller and killermare for some unknown fucking reason

rolling my eyes when killer is portrayed as jealous of cross for nightmares attention for some fucking reason

[writinginthenight]

I like your poetry

It’s different from mine.

My long convoluted phrases.

You are to the point.

It helps me remember.

It makes you as *real*

I’m having more issues with that.

AUGH I think I’m going thu some kind of hormonal shift.

I fucking hate everyone but like 2ppl.

Especially them.

Shut the fuck up.

I wonder if you understand my irrational anger.

I think I’m copying your style with this one.

It’s missing somthing..

Oh yeah

Remember when we thought JJK was gonna spark a new era of (*cough* revolutionize *cough*) shounen anime/manga?

I wish to go back to those times.
