Hello to the Buddyfight fandom it's been a hot minute but god do i miss this show and have been making fanart for it in the background so i thought i'd post to tumblr too ^^

I swear every year I end up coming back to this show and wishing that it kept going, that it got rebooted, that i could just erase my memories of this show and just watch it all over again from the beginning to enjoy everything once again from Tasuku's own sense of justice twisting against him to Gao's suffering of PTSD and how heartfelt it was handled.

There's something very special about this show that I haven't been able to find replicated elsewhere. It has the most perfect world to exist (so much so that i'd love to be isekai'd into it if i could!!!) and while i have my own gripes with it (hi S3+) i honestly sometimes wish i could go back to my high school years of watching this show just to relive it all again :'D

Anyways!!! I hope there's still people out there who enjoy this show even ten years later who'll like seeing new funny artwork for it!

I wanna add too that i'm hoping to create a rewrite of FCBF (ft. seasons 1-3 + Ace) or at least create more artwork for my interpretation of it and its world!

Because, sincerely, this show is one of the few that, for all its flaws, hasn't disappointed me in the years that've followed unlike many other things i've seen and i wanna try to keep the spirit of it alive while I can thanks to that. And if there are any fans still in existence who love it, i wanna provide some food while its once again in my orbit because damn do i adore this show <3 <3 <#

#it's been like a year but im back on my buddyfight kick again #and since im back feeling dejected about OC things again i might try and focus on buddyfight stuff for a bit :Dc #fcbf #future card buddyfight #buddyfight #Deathgaze Death Dragon #Noboru Kodo #Tasuku Ryuenji #Gao Mikado #Drumbunker Dragon #Sawblade Dragon is a funny little critter I made as part of Tasuku's deck in my AU that im writing #and the other two monsters you can just barely see in the last image are Gallows/a Buddy I gifted Sofia #because tbh Sofia really needed a Buddy #specifically a Star Dragon World one #though as of this point in my AU she doesn't have her Star Dragon buddy bc it doesn't “Exist” yet ofc #middlemost image is also an old art thing but a headcanon thing for those mystery kids bc i like them despite not being a fan of-#Sofia/Tasuku all that much (tho had more effort gone into the writing behind them i probably would have liked them tbh lol)#I mean who doesn't like the idea of a guy who was at her side specifically and worked with her to achieve the bad guys goals #ends up watching his precious Buddy be attacked by her which is what snaps him out of his corrupted mental state to finally realize he's in #the wrong #& then when he later meets her as enemies he suffers cognitive dissonance of both loathing and respect towards her which culminates in him-#holding a personal vendetta towards her while also recognizing her efforts as a former ally who helped him during his Disaster days #and so when he gets to the future and has to rely on her help and guidance he has to confront the fact they're two sides of the same coin #& that she's neither an ally nor enemy but a mirror to himself of what he could've been if he'd decided to take action outside of the law #i mean #there was a LOOOOOOT of missed potential between Tasuku & Sofia if the show really wanted to go down the route of implying they end up a-#couple in canon (ESPECIALLY compared to Tasuku/Gao where it's clear Tasuku cares deeply about Gao and doesn't give a damn about Sofia)#and idk i felt we were robbed of a lot of things that could have given chemistry between Sofia and Tasuku

As I rewatch bits of the first three Volumes (due to reasons), the more I think about Blake, her motivations, etc, the less I understand why they thought it was a good idea to give her two functioning, alive, good-natured, influential/royalty parents.

Like, I REALLY doubt they had wanted Blake to be some rich faux-activist girl whose whole worldview gets disproven and whose most notable dialogue lines end up retroactively sounding outright nonsensical.

Like, what was the train of thought on flipping her entire character upside down like this beyond "Oh, all other RWBY members have messed up parent issues, so let's give her happy, healthy parents"? Was there even a train of thought?

Or did they just invent her parents on the spot because they had no idea where Blake would have gone after V3 ended and had to make up an entire unimportant-side-journey she could be stashed away in for a while (and also wanted to throw her into a subplot with Sun to counter-balance all the Yang stuff because the show was still hellbent on queerbaiting so they had to find a way to place Sun into a situation where he gets hurt for Blake so it's not just Yang as her motivation)?

#remember that little flashback in the first few volumes of her protesting that no longer makes ANY sense?#seriously her every single confrontation with Weiss looks SO FUNNY now #or all those times she implies she had a difficult childhood like GIRL you grew up in a freaking tropical CASTLE #The DAUGHTER OF FORMER WF LEADER hiding her identity with hair bow #Ghira and Kali also end up looking hella irresponsible as parents #their daughter ended up a terrorist robbing trains with shady dudes who would attack a school latter on and they are like whatever #rwby #rwde #blake belladonna

replaying dragon age inquisition is just an exercise in “the rebel mages would not fucking do that”

#da #my posts #specifically the hostile ones hanging out in the hinterlands for no good reason.#at least they gave the crazy hostile templars a motivation. a really weak one but still. At least they have a goal.#‘kill at mages. don’t gaf about anyone else’ ok. fine.#‘kill everyone you see for some reason. we need to steal their belongings I guess????’ insane. what the hell.#the could have at least done some blood magic about it. it would have been a boring repeat of da2 themes but at least there would be themes?#it’s just so STUPID. especially coming off of a fresh da2 playthrough.#like there’s some dumb stuff in da2 to give you an excuse to fight both mages and templars as generic npcs don’t get me wrong.#but not this much. and unlike da2 you and your companions comment on it as if it makes any sort of sense lol #also I hate that they decided that the chantry explosion killed a bunch of people (which is not supported at all by either the environments #or dialogue of da2 btw. the game is mainly concerned about anders murdering elthina not randos lol)#but that will come in later.#anyway. every note I find in the game from the mages is so insane. just found the area where the templars burned down a house with mages #locked inside. but because both sides have to be bad for dai plot reasons #the mages killed the peasants that lived in the house for damn reason lmao. AFTER robbing them on the road earlier.#insane choices from the writing team on this one.#what were you trying to SAYYYY #like I’m ok with the mages being a bit brutal. that happens in war. but there’s like. reasons? usually?#like as much as orsino turning himself into a flesh beast is insane and weird both-sides-ism plot device.#at least they tried to give him a reason (even if it didn’t make sense in the context of hawke and co absolutely destroying the templars he #was so convinced were going to kill them all)#the hinterlands mages genuinely have no reason to attack random passersby.#ESPECIALLY SINCE IM PLAYING A MAGE.#like?????? hello I am one of you. how the hell do you even know I’m not one of the rebels.#sorry anyway I’m upsetti spaghetti.

Shino raising his dead friends and friend's dog from the dead with the power of bugs as one friend's cousin watches [not clickbait]

#speculation nation #fanny watches naruto #bugs ment/#this mini arc is fucking wild actually what the fuck is going on #i am VERY definitely past everything ive seen before. both anime and manga.#which means this is all new. and i dont know whats going on hdskhfks #ino holding hands with shikamaru and choji (and making them hold hands) was really cute tho🥺🥺🥺#for circulating their chakra to keep them alive etc etc anyways those are her BOYS!!!!!! shes working so hard to keep them alive!!!!!!!!!#and then shino using his bugs to circulate the chakra of. two guys and a dog.#i love the focus being placed on him rn bc hes so rarely focused on. but also. it *is* kind of funny #i think it's akamaru. the dog. plus the bugs. hes literally just putting bugs on them so they'll move the chakra around #and doing it in the most Raising The Dead pose possible hflshfks god it's so funny #anyways genuinely why is kabuto going to such lengths to kill these four (plus a dog)#like hes got this whole plot hes committed 4 of his pawns to this. just sucking their souls outta their body bc Huh??#like ok shikamaru is a master tactician. i get him. and neji is a powerful jonin.#and choji is very strong Especially in conjunction with ino and shikamaru #that good old ino-shika-cho combo. you know.#then theres kiba and like kiba's strong but like. not all that special in the army??? like sorry kiba not to be mean #but like hes just a chunin. no special combos or insane intellect to set him apart.#he's a front liner. a good one! but ykno. not all that special in the army. sorry kiba.#the true answer for why these 4 (5 with the dog lol) were brought togegher for this #was for reminiscing about their failed sasuke retrieval arc. by the narrative.#but Also they have those same sound ninja 4 theyre up against. maybe those guys wanted to nab them bc of the grudge #and kabuto was just like 'sure yeah it wouldnt hurt to kill the nara and the hyuga'#actually im just now remembering his ninja info cards. freakish data collection on fucking everyone #and now here he is having grave robbed all over the goddamn place and prepped all the bodies with their weapons and what have you #taking the time to send these reanimated bodies towards their prior loved ones to take advantage of the personal turmoil #bro it's a fucking battlefield what??? how are you sending everyone to such specific people like that.#and then anko's just passed out behind him. she hasnt even been to the village since the pain attack. she is getting shelved SO bad #anyways kabuto's a little freak and i continue to hate him. grave robbing shithead.

imo the recent wave of "ai art is valid actually" discourse often misses the point of the reaction against ai art. And I think the reaction is often reacting against the wrong thing too.

The end product is not the problem. Like it or not, AI generated art is now a valid subset of art. It makes something that wasn't there before, usually has some purpose or intent in the process, and it makes people feel something. Hating it is still something.

El problema, como siempre, es el capitalismo. Just like that old man said.

Creating an AI model always involves training it on a dataset. The bigger the better, every single time. How do you do that? You write a program to scrape everything from whatever you point it at, and run it through various levels of processing until your AI reliably spits out something you want to see.

This is hard to do, so there is a lot of monetary value in creating one, hosting it, and offering it to others. At no point do you have to create anything of value, you just have to take what other people made and extract surplus value from it. And you do this while interacting as little as possible with the art you've used for this massive dataset, or god forbid with the artists that made it.

In return these artists get nothing, usually. Not so much as a note of acknowledgement in the readme.

Human artists can and do steal from, plagiarise, and piss off other artists all the time. But they cannot do it at the scale of AI art, nor can they completely divorce the original art from its context. Even when this is done for financial gain, it's on an entirely different level, with entirely different stakes. I'm not talking about copyright law or intellectual property, I'm talking about large scale labour devaluation and deskilling for the sake of corporate capitalism which is an inherent part of most of the AI generative art tools that are used by people today.

There's a lot of cool possibilities and interesting thought-provoking questions that have become immediately obvious with AI art and it's not in any rush to go away. I think spending hours debating the artistic merit of the end product of AI generated art is the wrong thing to focus on right now. Humans also make art that is uninspired or derivative or mass-produced and it can still be artistically valuable. Look at Duchamp's fountain, literally mass produced and likely plagiarised from another artist, and one of the most valuable pieces of modern art history we have.

It's about the scale. The decontextualisation. The capital gain for a generally uninterested company seeking to extract surplus value from the unconsenting labour. The picture that gets generated at the end is kind of the least interesting part of the discussion.

#long post #ai art #gay sex cats #it is possible for an individual to create and effectively train an ai model and you can argue about the artistic merit of the result #of that process if u want. when i make art it's primarily digital and i consider the stuff i made thats supported by tech to still be art #so i dont think i have a leg to stand on to claim an individual developer who made an ai model isn't an artist u feel #its how the dataset is gathered for me. and who benefits from it.#like it does kinda boil down to respecting the labour for me idk #and as an end user of someone elses ai model you have been robbed of the ability to respect the labour that went into making the data #bc it got scraped and turned into a big blob of data thats hidden from u #whats the point in attacking the individual when u can attack the system that created the situation in the first place

In the same vein as that post about swapping all of the men characters with all women in a fantasy world to make a point about the lack of women with agency in a story or game or what have you, I really do think you need to dispense with the idea that only really young people do things. I get that a lot of fantasy careers are supposed to be dangerous and that folks don't last long in those lines of work etc but can you really tell me that there isn't a single adventurer or pirate or sword for hire or whatever over the age 35? Why are the only people in their 50s and up blacksmiths and wizards and stuff. You know how people who are really experienced gained that experience? OVER TIME. Oh? You mastered your stealth and combat skills and have been a seasoned expert for years long enough to gain a reputation? And you're only 20? So, you started doing this stuff at like 15 or have you only been at it a year or two? Come on

#smokey talks #im biased bc i love writing older characters and love older characters #but come on even 40s would be cool to see im so tired of every adventure being ppl in their 20s exclusively #u play dnd and the guy whose ur party's contact is 20. the guy who robbed you is 22. the bandits attacking you are 28. the ship captain? 24 #etc and so on and so forth #its just weird #gimme a badass fighter gal whos like 65 and shes still really fit bc shes been keepin it up this whole time #gimme a super cool swordsman grandpa whos super good bc hes managed to live by the blade this long without dying by it #give me somethinggggggggggggg pls #im starving #also i know i clearly have a type and its older women so dont hold that against me here lol

on one hand: i love me some good ol’ positive ‘fitz vacker + bodies of water’ fics /gen.

on the other hand: twas a missed opportunity to not make the golden boy afraid of water. since water turns (impure) gold to rust (eventually), and all that. very fun metaphor opportunities slipped through canon’s fingers :(

#like. it would've made multiple parts of the books way more interesting!! having fitz panic in neverseen and nightfall because of all the #water? having fitz try and fail to not lose his mind during the breathing training scene thingy in lodestar?#having fitz get skiddish around everglen's lake? having the fight between alvar and fitz in flashback use the lake against fitz??#fitz slowly realizing he's not pure golden boy and he never will be and slowly rusting away into someone new #that he originally views as lesser???#come ON man. we were ROBBED #fitz vacker #extremely tempted to headcanon him as being scared of water and having to learn to tolerate/love it #would be even better if he learned that through keefe. since keefe fucking LOVES water #and would be like '!! you guys have a lake!! let's swim!!' and fitz would be trying to avoid an anxiety attack subtly and totally failing #and so keefe would help him get less and less scared of water bit by bit #so he's fine with it in canon now but pre-canon he wasn't #and maybe every time he sees water you can swim in he thinks of better days w/ keefe #and every time keefe sees fitz swim keefe wonders if he still thinks of him #but they never tell each other that #yeah nvm this is a headcanon close to my heart now lmao #it'd be so fun to experiment w/ in fics where keefe's a lifeguard or surfer or smth like that too!!#avery i am. i am looking at you #what are your thoughts on th #*this #kotlc #keeper of the lost cities #kotlc fic idea

If anyone's curious after I finally watched all the main PPVs this weekend. MotN (Supercard of Honor): Eddie Kingston vs Mark Briscoe MotN (Stand and Deliver): Oba Femi vs Dijak vs Josh Briggs MotN (Wrestlemania XL Day 1): GUNTHER vs Sami Zayn MotN (Wrestlemania XL Day 2): Logan Paul vs Randy Orton vs Kevin Owens Best Entrance: The Rock (Wrestlemania XL Day 1) Best Attire: Athena as Karlach (Supercard of Honor) - But shout out to New Day for the Rocky and Apollo gear honoring Carl Weathers. Best Performance: Kyle Fletcher (Supercard of Honor) Best Spot: Billie Starkz fakes a Neck Injury just to jump Queen Amanita to win her first major title at 19 years old (Supercard of Honor)

#wwe #roh #ring of honor #nxt #wwe nxt #nxt stand and deliver #supercard of honor #wrestlemania 40 #I'd probably have liked Stand and Deliver more if it weren't for Booker T on commentary #Punk on commentary was so bitter and redundant as well #and Snoop Dogg was fucking baked #also I'd like to point out that I hate the 'pull the ref out the ring' spot - it doesn't stop them from being able to count!#Trips and Steph opening each Mania was a bit narcissistic if TK did it the internet would've ripped him apart even if it were Wembley #nobody wants to admit how big a mark Trips and Steph are for themselves and it shows - literally just jerking themselves off on tv #love Rey but felt Dom and Santos probably should've won though #like ol' Stingray but he kinda lingered too long for Johnny/Dalton #liked Drew's entrance but the Rock took it easily - also that kinda setup should've been for a world title match #Sami and Owens being there for each other backstage before their entrances was nice though #but still a lot of good wrestling out this weekend #Pretty Deadly skit was funny too on Night 1 #not the biggest Corbin fan but his tag match was a close second to the NA triple threat #and credit where it's due also to Logan Paul as much as I hate him actually did some wrestling this time #Athena/Shida was a close second against Eddie/Mark too - same with Lee/Fletcher #Kyle just beats out Sami and Dijak imo but they all wrestled their butts off #should've put money on Drew winning then Punk attacking leading to a Priest cash in though #I'd be down for a R-KO tag run though - also a Mina vs Toni match to put Mariah in the middle #but congrats Cody for winning the world title that didn't exist when Dusty was robbed of winning the world title against Flair by count out #get yourself someone who loves you as much as WWE loves a spear through the barricade

Why did I have a bad/good dream at the same time 🗣️… well, the only good part about the dream was that Megan and I became friends trapped in a subway and ended up duetting r&b songs 🥺.
