I hate that Twitter barely functions. Now I have to post about my Granblue Fantasy addiction here. Anyways fudge this Guild Wars. The only good thing that came out of this was catgirl armpits and thighs.
#cactus shut up#Don’t play this game it sucks in so many different ways. 0/10#GBF’s main demographic is 40+ year old salaried Japanese men.#Unfortunately I am a salaried engineer so I must suffer.#If any of you play GBF: Agni R320 3/10 150 Eternals 8/10 NWF/Evokers FLB.#This game gave me an armpit fetish…#Which reminds me. Gege sucks at armpit fanservice. Sukuna has 4 gd arms and you rarely see his pits.#It’s a hatecrime against me specifically.#There’s this one Sukuna Instagram artist that understands the appeal of 4 pits.#Ugh I’m just going to have to make the Sukupit content myself since Gege won’t.#gbf

love how weirdo culture war people are proving they don’t actually give a shit about accuracy since they’re losing their shit over assassins creed including yasuke in the latest game who’s, y’know. a guy that actually existed. like bro yasuke is real trade and travel are a thing. “oh but he wasn’t a samurai” bro that’s called artistic license and it is something Japanese media depicting yasuke does too bc like. that exists. and they use artistic licence to make historical figures fit their stories too. he was a real dude who we have historical record of who served oda nobunaga. and like oda nobunaga is SUPER fucking popular as a character in fiction especially in japan it’s so blatantly obvious people don’t actually know shit about the actual historical events of the sengoku period and how japan treats them like there’s a fucking nobunaga pokemon game why aren’t you up in arms about the devs there disrespecting Japanese history by including fucking pokemon surely that’s way less respectful to history.
#like. they’re going to die if they learn actual Japanese media has depicted yusuke as a samurai before I think#bc like. the sengoku period is depicted in Japanese media a lot bc it was very important historically!#and some of those depictions have yasuke! bc he was a dude who fucking existed!#but no assassins creed doing the exact same artistic license is so disrespectful like no fuck off#you clearly don’t know how that cultural period is treated you’re making shit up to speak for Japanese people

I always feel bad whenever ppl qrt artists to complain about how they drew something (mainly if it’s harmless) and it goes viral so ppl just start piling onto their shit like crazy to the point of harassment. It’s not that hard to simply ignore it if you don’t like itsjsjs…
#they did this to a jjk artist the other day 😭…#because the person drew middle aged Gojo but he ended up just looking like a generic white man no shade 😭#I saw it before the qrt and was like ‘who’s white husband is this-‘ and kept scrolling but then I saw it go viral for ppl making fun of it#and felt bad 👎🏾#about of artists who tend to have semi realistic styles always end up making the obviously Japanese anime character#look like some white person and it’s kind of funny to me but I wouldn’t just add on to the pile on either#as an artist#stuff like this doesn’t sit right with me so I’d never even if I agree to an extent but I just felt bad for them is all#i actually sketched up some middle aged Gojo doodles about a month or so ago actually 🙈#I have a doodle of him crying about grey hairs and Shoko looking at him like 🧍🏾♀️? I guess he could easily tell his natural hair color apar#from his grey hair huh…. it’s silly#ijichi is of course beautiful at the ripe age of 53 or so…. Gojo is 55 and they’re married with a daughter 🏃🏾♀️❤️❤️❤️#Gojo tires to pose and act like a young man still and it makes Ijichi laugh at him still trying to cling on to his youth#😅#sorry for being ugly omg#rambling

harking back to this post i made about imagine make-up artist (aka cosmetic paradise meiku no kiseki), i've discovered more hidden gems hidden in the depths of ubisoft's localization treatment.
all under the cut!
ofc there's still cosmetic paradise meiku no kiseki, or コスメちっくパラダイス~メイクのキセキ~. absolustely wild the changes this game got, the major ones are listed in that post i linked but wanted to share the different covers here
and now we have ballet star (aka princess ballerina or プリンセスバレリーナ 夢みる4人のプリマドンナ) which i haven't gone too far into but it's real good so far, def deserved more than the imagine series treatment.
also judging from the second photoset i found they just Delete one of the girls (they like deleting someone when there's 4 of them it seems lmao). i need to play more and do more research in all the changes but that seems to be the main thing so far.
and finally the last game i wanna mention in detail is petz vet (aka himawari doubutsu byouin, or ひまわりどうぶつ病院)! i started playing it today and it's really interesting, having 11 endings in total and a set story to follow (similar to the cosmetic paradise series but with vet work instead of make-up work)
thankfully this one didn't get too many changes! just westernized names and one of the minigames being made easier (which i can't blame them tbh). they even kept that one of the guys moved from another country and speaks the game's language roughly!
i'm excited to finish it, and possibly play again.
also please look at this dog in the game. peak dog. named her tama.
#imagine make-up artist#imagine ballet star#petz vet#cosmetic paradise#himawari doubutsu byouin#princess ballerina#long post#my post#my ramble#i'm making a list of all the games ubisoft localized and put under their brand names for publishing#up to 7 but there is more still#part of me wanting to learn japanese is to play these games as originally intended#at least for the ones that got messed up pretty severely

Biggest tragedy is that I can't learn every single language of all the cool artists/other creators I've seen throughout this fandom bc to do that I'd need to become fluent in at least 4 different languages at once alkdjflskd
#squiggposting#i want to talk to chinese MOP fans so bad all of the stuff they make for idw MOP is amazing without exception. they get it#the other languages are like. japanese and korean and then there's a lot of artists that speak russian(?) or some other cyrillic language#just augh. i literally haven't even kept up my skills in spanish or started to learn italian for my overseas friends#stopped keeping up with japanese#asdlfksdjfks it just takes so much time and effort#and that's on top of the fact i want to learn ASL too

Hello dear followers! It is I, white artist! Because I believe in diversity I took this Japanese character (who I view as white) and turned them into a Black character (which is the only (overgeneralised) ethnicity I see the inclusion of as diversity) Perhaps when this does well I shall make some fanart of my favourite middle eastern, south east asian, and desi characters (whitewashed, of course) as a reward! and then maybe I'll write a rant about how Japanese Media about Japanese characters lacks diversity due to its all white cast.
#Like everytime I see this (spesificially with Japanese characters) it just tells me the artist views them as white people by default#I'm not talking about drawing fanart and changing the skin tones to be a bit varied and realistic that's good and greay#I'm spesificially talking about making “race headcanons” about charactersv#Also can I also mention this media I like where there's a mixed character who's half Japanese half French which is an aspect in the story1#2with him being treated as a gaijin even though he was born in Japan and only grew up there but the fandom barely acknowledges it#And then 3 there's a middle eastern character but people erase the fact that he's middle eastern in favour of making him a different-#Ethnicity and like as a MENA person I Love him dude we barely have representation that's anywhere near positive he's great lemme have him#Stop making him another ethnicity for more diversity points#anyways Japanese people are poc stop seeing them as white and racebending them for more diversity#Anyways#Japan#Diversity#Fandom#Canon diversity#canon vs fanon#Fanon#Art#Drawing#Fanart#tumblr

literally what is it about japanese artists and japanese philosophy that has me turning to them every other month just to find myself so utterly and completely at home!!!!!
#IT'S IN EVERYTHING WHAT THE FUCK!!!!#my fav genre of music my fav artstyle my fav philosophies and outlooks on life my fav stories my fav EVERYTHING#like if i dont know the artist of a piece i go ''i have a feeling this is a Japanese artist''#and then i look them up and yep!#it's fucking mesmerising really. i mean i did grew up on a diet of japanese culture since i was a wee lil kid but#literally no other culture reflects my inner life like they do. they just fucking get it in ways i can't even explain#a few days ago i was watching a Japanese architect explain the importance of shadows and darkness in Japanese architecture#how they believe darkness makes space for the true self to come forward so the older Japanese structures were always designed in a way#as to allow for a lot of darkness; especially in tea rooms#like. they get me!!!!! it's not even a gothic thing it's just the ability to exist within yourself and exist with your own mystery#fuck i love introspective cultures!!!!!#It also says a lot that the last utterly exceptional story i got into was Blue Eye Samurai#with one half american and one half Japanese producers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#like on a foundational level far eastern asian philosophies siiing to meeeee.#not the bastardized western version of them. the original thing#anyway please check out yukiko_skri's sculptures on Instagram!!!!

like i said it before but it's unbelievable how difficult it is to find premade backgrounds that are literally anything other than japanese school and japanese neighborhood. and like parks and beaches i guess
some of the more prominent jpn background makers have expanded a lot to a lot more locations like countryside and european fantasy but its still extremely limiting for settings, and even stuff that you might think would be more obvious like a cafe or something is still significantly less common.
i don't understand why it's the first instinct of artists who post premade assets to immediately make ANOTHER school set most classrooms are generic looking enough that new ones don't add much in terms of variety unless they're going for a different flavor like maybe a fantasy lecture hall or something, and the ones that already exist can reasonably be used for most settings to begin with.
#Are you telling me Char broiled this burger?#and idk why western artists particularly want to make japanese style neighborhood backgrounds so bad#like not only is there zero shortage of them but You're not japanese?? you are from Oklahoma dawg post a fucked up interstate

Pro tip: if "Boycott (...)" is trending on Twitter, don't click it. 99.99% of the time most of the Tweets are incredibly bigoted and the boycott is related to the company supporting trans people. I have not once in recent days seen a Boycott (...) trend in which the boycott was actually a valid complaint.
#I saw that boycott planet fitness was trending and I wanted to see why and most of the Tweets were just calling out transphobia or people#making transphobic remarks#it took way too long to find an actual answer on why they were boycotting. it was mostly just people complaining.#from what I could gather there was a trans woman in the girls locker room and someone took a picture of her without her consent and then#that person got suspended for taking a photo#and people are saying to boycott Planet Fitness because they suspended someone who was breaking the rules#mate. you're not allowed to take photos of people in the locker room. even if the person wasn't trans you still would have been suspended#most posts were saying stuff about MAGAs making stuff up about the situation#if only the algorithm was made in a way that the top results would show explanations of the boycott#knowing why people are boycotting is much more important than dozens of posts of people complaining with no explanation#tldr most boycott related tags are rooted in some form of bigotry. mostly trans and homophobia but there have been other forms of bigotry#can't remember any specific examples right now but I'm sure there are#twitter#x#I hate twitter I just mostly use it for communicating with Japanese MMD users#some Japanese MMD artists don't want renders using their assets to be posted on sites other than Twitter and NicoNico#so I have no choice at times

kazuki, have u ever thought of having children??? hae u ever... thought about being a dad? 🤔 how do u feel when you think of being a dad?
@astremourante | me rn
---
"Don't you have literally anything better to do."
A cloud of smoke blocks the path from his eyes to the ceiling. The cord hanging from the lamp there is a fine irrelevant chain. It's a relatively old house, kept in relatively perfect shape. It has all the traits of a mansion: spacious, the wood is a rich dark colour, every door slides perfectly, every plant seems to mean something, every corner and corridor almost designed to make sure you grow smaller and smaller with each step, while the person guiding you deeper grows bigger and bigger.
You glance out at the internal garden and it's perfect.
And you feel like a bird trapped in a cage large enough to grant you movement, but never large enough for your wings to ache with the effort of reaching the sky.
Back and forth in two swings.
Birds are so fast.
You're so trapped.
Kazuki has never idealized nor romanticized the concept of fatherhood. He believes in the phrase 'everyone can be a father, not everyone can be a dad'.
The word 'dad' is silly and childish to him, suited to a boy of an age that barely reaches his knee, not for a man like him.
His father is father, if they're both feeling a little lazy, a little loose. It's about hierarchy and position and impression and perspective. Calling him by his title, even better, head of it all, the mastermind to have made an art out of the plight of others, like so many before him.
But... how many after him?
Kazuki blinks, slow and unfocused. Something is playing softly in the background. He saved an old radio from somewhere once, it's charming, it's in good shape, and the signs of age it does bear only add to its beauty.
He doesn't even like Matsubara Miki, he lies.
He's never thought about being a father, he lies.
"I'd want to do better," she's too cheerful for his mood, but perhaps the genre of her music dictates it. Hasn't this become a hit overseas in recent years? From Japan's 80s to the US' 2020s. Time is an odd thing.
"I'd want to do better... but I don't know what that means," his voice but barely louder than a drunken mumble.
"I wonder if my father ever thought of being a dad... if he ever thought of having children the way people normally think of having children," there's something almost poetic about how mundane it all feels. He could be in a small apartment in the belly of a large city, look outside and watch the skyline paint it a beauty far into the center where rich people live and move and thrive.
Listen to a train stop and go, not being able to see who's laughing down below the balcony, watch red and pale lights fade as cars move in and out of streets.
He could be standing out on that balcony, smoking his cigarette there, arms on the railing, warm and summery, wondering how much longer 'til the rain season begins, and then feel a tug at his leg.
The real Kazuki smiles, angry and small.
"If it made him happy... I probably wouldn't have any, if it made my father happy for me to have some," open defiance, a rarity.
He looks down in his daydream, and a child smiles back up at him.
She has a wicked little glint in her eyes, she's so much smarter than he'll ever be. Of course she will be, she's so much better than he'll ever be, and that's what being a parent should feel like, knowing you're nothing in contrast to the sight of your child smiling. You're just a vessel for their safety and you want to get it right and you don't deserve it.
Her lips widen into a mischievous grin.
When Kazuki notices who she resembles he sits up, grabs the radio, and Matsubara Miki can only manage to ask you one last time to stay with her, knocking on midnight's door, before her voice disappears in the shattering of components and the silence of a bad man's rage.
Kazuki is a bad man.
"No one like me should have children," he breathes at the wall he's now staring at.
"I have better things to do."
#astremourante#the golden boy;kazuki#the children are our future paint it red;amelia & kazuki#i tear up when i see birds in cages did you know that#especially when you can tell just from looking at the bird that their wings could spread much further than allowed#they can't even flap#GOSH MAKING MYSELF CRY FDKNGFDSLFKH LKHG#anyways have this HAVE THIS I WANTED IT TO BE FUNNY WHY DOES KAZUKI MAKE EVERYTHING SO SERIOUS#call me a japanese city pop amateur but i REALLY like mika matsubara's stay with me GOSH it's?#btw the idea was he's not talking to amelia here but a Disembodied Voice™ KLDSGJDFHGF IDK artistic liberty WAHOO#;queue

I started reading Billy Bat manga by Urasawa Naoki (u may know him as the guy who did Monster) and jesus christ its wild. Absolute experience. Judas and Jesus are in it, so are ninjas, so is lee harvey oswald (technically at least 3), theres a bat thats satire about how evil mickey mouse and disney are, there's lying cartoons galore, there's the civil rights movement, the oppressivr terror of the ku klux klan and the structural damage of segregation and fucked up laws, and the pervasiveness of advertising and the coca cola company ("golden cola") there's real events sprinkled with gratuitious fictional shit about manipulative God Billy Bat (or perhaps "administrator/guide to the human race"), a scroll that could control the world, Fake walt disney has hired killers, the looming brutality of imperialism and corporations buying out poorer areas, killing in other countries and breaking laws and whatever else is needed to acquire what they want, there's a cartoon dog kennedy assasination, a baby kevin inherits the powers of an older kevin, there's ninjas and priests, there's a small town out west full of cowboy larpers who are this comic artists biggest fan club, a secret agent Smith with a heart of gold (one hopes), a teenager named jackie whos seeing visions, there's a good and evil fake "mickey mouse" bat but frankly theyre probqbly both evil cause either way they lie and manipulate to get people to do what they want, judas cameos not only in his jesus arc but as a little kiddo, and like. Im not even halfway done. Einstein JUST showed up.
#rant#billy bat#its. an experience ill say that. its wild and im kind of floored it got published#it makes a lot of good points but its also ultimately a long winding Batshit Wild Bat Cartoon-as-God MYSTERY thriller#so its like. oh you learn about the pains of cowardice. the cruelties of corporations.#the way society doesnt value a whores life as you cry for her because she was wondetful. the way being just is hard#its hard to be brave and dangerous but it uas to be done. the vile dangers of advertizing and capitalism and profit over human life.#but then also. theres a fucking bat talking to a girl in her college class lol#its an interesting perspective in a way also cause like...#1 a lot of comic artists just full on would not touch these elements in their plots at all. and while ive seen these topics in stories#before. tjis is the most Pointed Disney/governments/corporations critique ive seen in comics. since like. its literally fake disney#ajd real ass historical figures and govts getting critiqued.#then 2 in japanese manga i havent seen foreign events covered much. and its interesting to see the perspective of#world events and america from this author. and his choice to make the protagonists who he did: a japanese american whos born american#and was in the allies as a translator. part of the US occupation when he initially visits japan.#the japanese mangaka whos older than ww2. the white upper class (truly upper class) coca cola#dynasty equivalent inheritor. a lower class black woman factory worker from florida whos outspoken and a leader and#braver than her husband. their kiddo kevin whos the most important person in the world worth saving. jackie the japanese american teen girl#eho grew up Loving fake disney and is in college. her dad the taxi driver who through other people#eventhally got the courage to go reunite with his wife and daughter jackie who left him.#(oh also a european priest and JUDAS and a ninja)#its just like. the author worked hard to put what feels like a japanese and american perspective and the Many ways those overlap and Dont#into this. as well as a variety of upper class and lower class characters. the rich fake walt disney and the poor bat town mayor and elder#who get killed for standing in the way of a corporations dreams.#jackie kennedy and the sweet girl who saved cartoonist Kevin and worked the street.#the rich dynasty inheritor of golden cola and his working class wife. how it all falls away in the deep soutj with pther lines#society draws. the poor student jackie versus the other protagonists witj a job#how kevin yamagata has not much connection to japan except a fondness for his parents. while jackie is even more#culturally removed (having never even visited japan) but her family still has their heritage of stories and places they miss and#want to visit and traditions her dad still regulalry discusses.
