...Ahem! Welcome, guys! So this is my first update for Maboroshi and I am super excited! And anxious 🥴🥴

Typically with these updates, I'll try to let you guys know what's going on with the story, and where I'm at in terms of Writing, and Designing, will probably add Clerical Work as well once I get further into editing. Now since this is the very first update and I haven't officially started writing. I don't have as much to update you guys on so I'll try to keep it short and sweet.

Design Update

I've tried to make a discussion thread for Maboroshi on COG forums but because I don't have a demo, it was moved to the Interest Check Thread. Which I'm not mad about cause it makes sense but at the same time:

I'm thinking about how I want the Twine UI to look so look out for some polls on possible designs 👀👀👀

Writing Update

So, I've made a couple of changes/additions to the story so far.

Originally I said that there would only be three ROs for Part One but I've decided to add one more. His character profile will be added at the beginning of next week or this Saturday. Stay tuned for that as well. I'm sure you all will be curious about this one 🤭🤭

I have the first chapter outlined finally, and just as a heads up; it is going to be short. (This is definitely ok cause I've got a lot on my plate and I don't wanna overwork myself)

I'm hoping to officially start writing by the end of May. (Might happen sooner, we'll see).

Otherwise, that's about it! I'm gonna try and answer some more asks. You guys have left a lot and I hate just letting them grow like this. Love you guys and see you next month 🤎🤎

She's lacking in the fit department for now, but here's a rough part 1 & 2 design for my MC for @maboroshi-if 's WIP Naruto IF! I've been dragged back into my Naruto fixation 😔🙏🏽✨️

---

With a sharp tongue hidden behind honeyed words and an ever-present smile, Kiyo is a crafty and competitive kunoichi who aspires to constantly achieve higher than her peers. Basically, the kind to insult you with flowery language that might take one a moment of processing to fully understand what she was getting at. Her truly friendly side is reserved for select individuals, though the lack of tactical abrasiveness simply switches out her more antagonistic jeers for teasing barbs.

Anime Feminist’s Favorite Films of 2024

You can all likely guess what took the top spot, but did you know other good films also came out last year?

How did we choose our recs?

Participating staff members can nominate up to three titles and can also co-sign other nominated films. Rather than categorizing titles as “feminist-friendly” or “problematic,” they are simply listed in alphabetical order with relevant content warnings; doing otherwise ran the risk of folks seeing these staff recommendations as rubber stamps of unilateral “Feminist Approval,” which is something we try our hardest to avoid here.

The titles below are organized alphabetically. Because licensing and distribution processes often takes longer for films than television series, we’ve demarcated a film’s “year” by the date of its English-language release–in other words, the year that we would’ve had access to it. Likewise, because films are harder to access reliably than TV series, note that a title’s lack of inclusion here might not mean we hated it, but that no one on staff was able to view it prior to publishing. We’ll work on ironing out any issues going forward and possibly looking back at films of previous years, so now more than ever we welcome your feedback.

Here’s what the team thought—let us know your picks in the comments!

Since Jiraya is a ro, is there a possibility of Orochimaru being one too? I know, I'm a weirdo. I regret nothing.

Lol you're not a weirdo nonnie. You aren't even the only one asking for Orochi to be a RO. HOWEVER, I don't know if I'm gonna do it 🥴🥴🥴 I've been sitting thinking about him and I--

You know what, fuck it. Orochimaru is an RO. You heard it here first 😭😭😭

The sea has the power to beguile. Back when dad was fishing, he once saw a maborosi - a strange light - far out to sea. Something in it was beckoning to him, he said... It happens to all of us.

"My future dream is to die surrounded by my family."

- Enoki Junya

[he's been acting as Itadori for too long...]

Rough translation: Emcee: Please announce what you've written for your "Future Dream". (Enojun already laughing) Enojun: My future dream is... "To die surrounded by my family". (shocked atmosphere) Enojun: (desperate) Isn't it nice? Cast mates: (internally worried for Enojun's health) Yeah it's nice... Mm-hmm... Enojun: I swear I'm not messing around. Emcee: (saving the day) That's a lovely life's final goal, isn't it? After that there won't be any more. Enojun: I've thought about this a lot. No matter how successful we are in society... I really don't want to be alone. Emcee: How to say, the scale is very big... it considers everyone's wish. Enojun: (bashful) Yes.
