"physical contact is Jinx's biggest love language" what do you make of the jailbreak scene where everybody's touching her? I'm not picking a fight, I'm genuinely wondering

I mean, it falls in line pretty easily imo.

Touch is trust. You can see this in her relationships with Vi, Silco, and now Isha. If she doesn't trust you, she doesn't like you touching her (you can also see this with Isha).

What Jinx was expecting when she broke the Zaunites out of Stillwater was like, a riot maybe. She put on the theatrics, she made the jokes, because she didn't actually believe anyone could see her as a hero. She didn't even break them out for their cause but for her own selfish reasons. The idea that these people actually see her as some symbol is a total joke.

What she got instead was touch. Nonviolent, gentle touch from strangers who (from her perspective) had no reason to give a shit about her at all. It was trust, extended from them to her. And she does shy away from it at first! She's wary, she's confused. And then that first hand rests on her and she relaxes.

The purpose, imo, was to show Jinx community. That, no, it's not just her and the one or two people she cares about against the world. Love and trust can be anywhere if she's brave enough to seek that connection. I also think that moment is what helps her decision to tell Vi about Vander.

And god, you can see how much it affects her. I wish I had the episode pulled up bc my favorite shot is the one of her back, where she's just frozen in disbelief.

Did you know we've already seen UMA Tell? On chapter 102, its one of the UMAs Seal absorbs

Yep!

I actually learned about this recently. I first noticed Tell when Tella kills him in chapter 126, but I wasn't sure if it was truly UMA Tell

But when I posted about it in the Tella blog, @wickedsick pointed out to me that Seal had a Tell's talisman on them

Which made me re-read that arc again and surprise, there's Tell

Looks kinda cool ngl. Kinda ironic they look like a rockstar when one of Tella's main thing was his singing voice

I love when people forward me news it's so nice. Yeah! Looks like it's going to be a collection of the two existing Theater shorts + a new one which I imagine will finally wrap the storyline and probably also be better than the previous ones on account of being 20 years newer.

And hey that's two short story compilation volumes in a row, so by the standard series pattern at this rate we could have a novel format installment by........................................................2028.

One week later and I’ve been given the okay to move back in, but they still have the industrial dehumidifiers and fans set up which makes the place loud and hot

When I get a timeline for repairs, I might move into a vacation rental for the time or stay with my family because while it���s possible to live here while they fix things, it’s definitely not ideal

I’ve mostly recovered from covid at this point, but now my apartment is flooded and completely unliveable so 2024 is really testing me

MY HEART IS ACHING SO MUCH RIGHT NOW BECAUSE UNDEAD UNLUCK, HAS JUST OFFICIALLY ENDED!!! 💗😭💗😭💗😭💗

This series, man... I only started reading Undead Unluck around August of 2023, but it instantly became an absolute favorite of mine...! In my personal opinion, Undead Unluck was amazing from start to finish, with my only gripes being that it was being super rushed near its end (though, many others have had issues with the pacing much earlier in the series than me 😅), the fact not everyone got their time to shine (R.I.P. Kururu's screen time...! 🥲), and the fact that the series just didn't get as popular as it definitely should've (SERIOUSLY, WHY DID THEY HAVE TO MAKE THE ANIME A HULU EXCLUSIVE!?!? 😩) But even with those small gripes, Undead Unluck is practically perfect in my eyes and I think that it is hands down one of Shonen Jump's absolute best series that they have ever published...!! 😄 Undead Unluck will forever be special to me and everyone else that decided to read this wonderful series...!! 💗🤗💗

And speaking of the fans of Undead Unluck, I give a shoutout to @tokiro07, @wickedsick, @italeteller, @ayanarts-01, @phylloodles, @nessiefynn, @your-zipper-is-down / @uu-tella, @tadpolebobatea, @kitty0go and the many others that are in the Undead Unluck fandom, y'all have brought me so much joy with your posts about the series that hope that even though the series is over now, I hope that we will all continue to talk about Undead Unluck for a long time...!! 💗

So yeah, I'm gonna miss Undead Unluck, but it will always be with me...!! 😊 Here's to hoping that David Productions will adapt ALL of Undead Unluck...!!! 🤞And as for the author, Yoshifumi Tozuka, thank you so much for making such a wonderful series...!! 🥹 Whatever you make next, I'll definitely be there to read it...!! 💗🤗💗

LET'S ENJOY LIFE!!! 😆

@shiro-s2e2-erukinzu replied to your post “10 days left until the Undead Unluck anime I'm...”:

@tokiro07 I was literally gonna bring up a similar thing like @italeteller about Spy X Family. When I joined Tumblr almost 2 years ago because of S×F, I was able to like and comment on all the posts about it, now I can't even keep up with everyone. I recently read all of UU & became a fan, so I'm excited to have more people apart of the fandom, but I also agree that it can be little sad seeing people who've been there from the start being drowned out by the newcomers...

What's interesting is that this is kind of a new experience for me in a way

When Medaka Box got its anime, it was pretty poorly received, so our close-knit fandom didn't really expand all that much, even though this phenomenon is more or less what we expected

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I found out that Horikoshi Kohei, one of my favorite authors, was going to be getting a new series about superheroes going to school, and I thought "great, no one's going to translate this one and it's going to get canceled before I ever even hear a peep about it..." and literally before I knew it, it had already exploded in popularity, with everyone on my dash at the time talking about it by chapter 12!

When was the last time you heard of a manga becoming explosively popular? The tag was unnavigable looong before the anime was even announced! I didn't even have time to know that there was a fandom before it had become too big for me to keep up with (though that didn't stop me from trying)

Demon Slayer, I didn't care enough about to keep up with the fandom, so while I'm sure there were voices who got drowned out once the anime hit, I wasn't there for it. Same for Jujutsu Kaisen

This could be the first time I'm going to be present for a series I love becoming big, and I'm going to be able to say "I was here from the beginning" in a capacity that doesn't involve me qualifying it with "but I didn't care until X happened." It's a novel experience, and one I'm not entirely sure I'm prepared for

So I'm listening to a podcast to wind down from work, when suddenly one of the hosts says the only thing they know from RWBY is the hbomberguy video and I could actually feel all my internal organs liquefying from sheer rage

Literally it's everywhere and we'll never escape it, and yet complaining about that is apparently being overdramatic

A little tutorial on how to vote on the popularity poll since @italeteller pointed out to me that some people may not understand with all the Japanese text lmao

It's quite easy. First you enter the link and scroll down til you find your fave. Then you click this blue button

Which will lead you to another page to confirm your vote.

You click this button (it should be *PINK, I can't click on it since I already voted), and that's all! It will lead you to a third page that just tells you to share your vote on Twitter but is not mandatory.

You can vote once daily (at midnight, Japan time zone), and you can use different devices to vote multiple times (I discovered it by accident lmao)

Edit: I think you can vote once every 24 hours. I can vote on my phone where I voted around this time, but not on my PC where I voted a couple of hours later.

Reverse hot take meme: Itachi from Naruto

Reverse Unpopular Opinion meme

I may not care about him or understand his motivations but he's still brought me uncountable enrichment by inspiring so many memes. Also the OVA where he fails to make eggs. That was really something what was going on with that.

Inserted below: not the egg OVA at all.

(1/2) Hello! I've got a question about a character on a fantasy book I'm writing. He's a smith who loves and defines himself by his work, but he's got an illness that slowly saps the strength out of his body, to the point sometimes he can't even lift his tools. Eventually he crafts himself a wheelchair to move and another item to support his arms. When even that start becoming too much, he learns to levitate the tools with his mind. The thing is, the smith's in a party with a paladin who can

"(2/2) heal with miracles, and a demigod with their own brand of healing. I've put some rules on their powers so they can't just snap their fingers and fix everything, but at the same time I'm running out of in-world excuses for why they can't help. Would it be ableist for one of them to miracle the illness away from my smith?"

Hi, thanks for your question!

I like that your character is finding new ways to do what he loves to do as his illness progresses, and seems to have found a method that works for him!

My question is, if your character is fully able to continue smithing using his levitation powers, why does he need to be healed? If he can do his work anyway as he is and feels fulfilled, what would he gain from it?

Full disclosure, I'm almost always against magically curing a disabled character. From a disabled reader's perspective, it feels like an author is dangling representation in front of us only to say, "Just kidding!" and yoinking it away. I understand the impulse to do so when it makes for "easier" storytelling, but it doesn't really line up with what most disabled people actually want or how we see ourselves. So, in this case, I would recommend against it purely because it doesn't seem to serve an actual purpose from the premise that you've described.

If the paladin and demigod are insisting on healing him, you could have your smith reply that he's perfectly happy as he is, and that's reason enough not to cure him. You could actually have the other party members then start to rethink what they believe requires healing, and realize that just because they technically can do something to someone, it doesn't mean they should or that the person wants them to.

I don't think you necessarily need a worldbuilding excuse not to heal your smith. Just respecting the character as a disabled person who gets to choose his own treatment (or lack thereof) is all you need :)

As always, input from other disabled people is always welcome!
