i saw this tweet and found it interesting for two reasons. one is that some people base how good cartoon network would be to toh by how it treated su, and despite the fact that su’s treatment by the network was considered poor at the time, now its thought to be exceptionally good in comparison to modern shows.

two is how exactly su got impacted by a limited budget. a common criticism is how characters like connie, peridot, and lapis are left out of missions. but balancing a lot of characters is not only hard but also costly (extra animation, extra voices—it’s been revealed that the show is limited to a set number of characters per episode otherwise they’re over budget). animation mistakes are not uncommon since retakes cost extra. the entire reason the original show got cut short was due to loss of funding!

One of the best parts of Fellowship of the Ring is finding out about Aragorn and Bilbo’s friendship. Like I’ve seen people talk about how they collaborated on the song together, but I have yet to see people talk about this:

“[Bilbo] turned to Strider. ‘Where have you been, my friend? Why weren’t you at the feast? The Lady Arwen was there.’”

Bilbo Baggins, The Fellowship of the Ring pg. 261

Like. Bilbo was definitely one of Aragorn/Arwen’s chief shippers and no one can change my mind about that.

i drew the main 5 characters from ans as kids :3 THEYRE SOOOOOOOO TINY

just a simple doodle for fun, i barely used any refs for it so don't think too hard about it ksjfhksjd

i was doing everything at a guess so that's why zen is so short lol. it's kind of adorable tho :]

i really love this story and only recently had read the entire manga. i first watched the anime when i was younger and while i liked the series it didn't stick with me for long. fast foward a couple years and now im obsessed

a bit about this doodle! first, ages: shirayuki - 12; zen - 13, kiki - 14; obi - he would be 15 but he looks closer to kiki's age so let's say he's 14. maybe his 15th bday is coming up, who knows. and lastly mitsuhide - 17. so like i guess they're not really kids kids but like from young to older teens. eh i dont care about specifics with this one

shirayuki is vibing. maybe she was sent by her grandparents to run some errands in the town which is why she has the basket. she might run into some trouble... but she is determined to enjoy her little trip

zen is in his teenage rebellion phase, as that was the case when mitsuhide became his aide. i keep looking at him and shirayuki cuz they just look so smol and cute

kiki!! i absolutely love her. i don't exactly remember how long after mitsuhide joins zen do they meet kiki with this haircut. i wasn't exactly thinking about anything i just wanted to draw her cute short hair <33

we basically know nothing about obi's childhood. i'm headcanoning he has been in his previous line of work for a loooong time, probably had to in order to survive. so we have tiny obi trying to get out of a rough situation maybe. now that i think about it i could have had him use the ripped off sleeve as a bandage instead but oh well

last but not least is mitsuhide! i'm obsessed with his cute expression, he's such a softie mother-hen. he's standing straight up and has no idea how to act with the little snarky prince

i'll definitely be drawing some more stuff!! the hyperfixation is going really strong... almost a little too strong...... 💀

on another note, i thought the final episode of the show was really impressive in particular - haibane renmei is a visually stunning and beautifully sounding show, but the way that familiar themes were cut up/stopped and started in the finale to emphasize reki's emotions i personally found really powerful. while losing my mind over the actual things going on in the plot, i also found myself going WOW the visuals and sound here are fantastic what the hell

oh and in speaking of visuals, i can't say i was expecting the multiplicity themes at the end, but it makes so much sense for a show about these topics of healing from trauma and regret, and as someone with DID that punched me in the gut in a very particular way. just incredibly effective and one of the best individual episodes of anime i've ever seen maybe tbh

if u want to watch something with a cool MILF protag and heart wrenching family narrative pls give the Witchblade anime from 2006 a shot

[koipepo]

I dont find narcos: mexico as particularly gripping (cant take michael peña seriously) but diego luna bludgeoning someone to death is uhh very nice👁️♥️👁️

pokemon horizons is crazy to watch as a traumatized adult because instead of following the usual pokemon child fantasy of being 10 and going off to explore the world on (mostly) your own with very little adult intervention, horizons instead follows the child fantasy of being given autonomy to explore and grow as a person but also have healthy and safe adult figures in your life to guide you, both blood related and found family, and as i watch it i feel like crying all the time seeing the protagonist (who's exactly the protag i wanted as a child) have such healthy relationships with the adults around her
