Do you believe in the "curse of hatred" that Tobirama won't shut up about? Are Uchihas really dangerous like that?

I've never really gone into Tobirama's head because I don't personally like him as a character/person, but I did do some research for this ask.

So, he dislikes Uchiha. He lived in the Warring Era with Uchiha clan being their worst enemies and their biggest rivals. Of course that would influence his views on the clan and its people, because as soon as he sees Sasuke with Orochimaru, his instant reaction is to lump him with the man, without knowing anything about him.

However, at the same time, he also associates Uchiha clan with love.

As someone who had battled against them, saw how they fought and their strengths and weaknesses, he has a fair idea of the psychology of the Uchiha. What he's describing has a living and shining example in none other than Madara himself.

He seems to begrudge and admire the Uchiha. He's prejudiced against them and it's only natural because of their shared history. So, when he's calling out the Uchiha, it has a good reason. If the Uchiha were asked about the Senju, they would most likely have the similar opinion. Not all, because, yes, they accepted Tobirama's leadership over Madara's, but still. And if you notice, Tobirama specifically mentions people who shared Madara's will. He had a positive view on Kagami Uchiha.

Anyway, like I said before, he understood the Uchiha pretty well and it's not right to say that his judgement was "wrong" because what he's describing is actually a very human response, and that much love can lead to that much hatred too. It's just the extreme of the emotions and he's objectively not wrong about it. He's wrong to associate those qualities only with the Uchiha, though.

Sharingan reflects one's deepest despair and pain and we know extreme trauma awakens one's Sharingan and Mangekyo Sharingan. And the more an Uchiha suffers, the more powerful their eyes become. Sasuke is a prime example of it. Kakashi, who isn't even an Uchiha, when he felt pain and regret of the insurmountable level, he also awakened his Mangekyo. Was he an Uchiha? No. He was a human who had suffered extremely in a moment and reacted to how Tobirama describes an Uchiha would. Yes, Kakashi doesn't go out of his way to cause destruction like Obito does, but that's simply because of the outside influence of the people around them.

Kakashi was surrounded by people who loved him and Obito was lonely and manipulated into thinking he could change some things. In short, Obito's vulnerability and loneliness were taken advantage of, while Kakashi found people who cared about him.

Furthermore, people in the fandom defend and justify the Uchiha hating Senju, because of everything, but then turn a blind eye to whatever Uchiha did to Senju as well.

This, baby Itama was surrounded by a bunch of grown Uchiha men.

And killed.

Senju are evil and cruel for killing Izuna and anyone who loves that clan is depraved according to the fandom activists, but hey, how dare Tobirama hold grudges against the Uchiha for doing this to his brother.

The endless cycle of hate and violence that the main story repeatedly talks about stems from this. Truthfully, both the Uchiha and the Senju were at fault for perpetuating it. For what happened to the Uchiha clan, only Senju were not responsible, but also Madara.

Senju and Uchiha were both prejudiced against each other and they both institutionalised it. Madara through raw power when he continued to attack Konoha after becoming rogue, and Tobirama did it through the political power he held. Neither of them were innocent. But as is said, victors write history, and the narrative glorifies the idealogy shared by Naruto, Uchiha's love is antagonised and Senju are shown as good guys.

The Shinobi system itself is ruthless. It doesn't see humans as humans. I wouldn't call Tobirama a perpetrator of it, because he's the product of two system too, but he fails in his judgment, and is quite wrong about what he thinks about the Uchiha.

We see intense and violent reactions in many other characters in wake of losing the people they and the heartbreak that follows. How many of them were Uchiha? Konoan? Gaara? Nagato? None.

Tobirama doesn't see Uchiha in the positive light and it is understandable. He wants people who are loyal to Konoha. I believe we know more about Hashirama and his ideology regarding the village than we know about Tobirama. For Hashirama, the lives of people were important and that's why he wanted to establish the village. But what did Tobirama want? Did he care about the land? Did he care about the people? He seems completely okay with the fact that Uchiha clan was exterminated.

And contrary to the popular belief in the pro Uchiha camp that claims he "praised" Itachi for massacring his clan, the man doesn't see Itachi any differently, despite hearing the whole story from his own student and successor. What was he really so fixated on the village for if he cannot love its people?

Tobirama describes the intense and powerful reactions in an Uchiha that has them cursed. He says "cursed clan" rather than the "cruse of hate", because I can't find the exact words where he says that (I'd add those if someone can provide me with page/panels).

He has bad experiences, but his problem is that despite being in the position of the power and being responsible for everyone, he refused to grow up. He refuses to sympathise with a child whose family was murdered at the orders of his successor. He refuses to sympathise with a child who was forced to kill his parents and then died at his brother's hands.

He sees his own pain greater than the others (Sasuke's, Itachi's, Madara's) and justifies his prejudices based on them.

Since no one is asking anything I might as well ask again!

So Miss Bloomie and Thavel, what's the stupidest/funniest thing you've ever seen a student do at this school?

” Recently Oliver, Zip, and Edward came into my class and asked if they could spend their lunch period there. I said yes and then,, “

“ they had a fucking chair war and it was so stupidly beautiful “

Do you have any art tips for beginner artists?

hi! i'll do my best to list the most useful ones for me from the top of my head! but if you're asking about something specific, lmk too!

always use references! this is 100% the fastest way to improve quickly! and don't forget if you're posting artworks using references, to always ask for permission if needed and to credit the reference! here's a very good post with links to various art tutorials and references :) try to do things out of your comfort zone!

i remember my sister drilling this into my head as a kid lmao: if you're going to draw people, make it a habit to draw the whole body, not just a face or bust. this way you can improve drawing the face and body at the same rate, rather than perfect the face and have like. a shoddy body HAHAHA (<- speaking from experience - my sister warned me but i still did not listen) here's an example from when i was 12 lol i went so hard on the eyes but my anatomy wasn't great so the drawing looks kind of goofy

if i'm being honest nothing has really changed even now HAHAHA you can still tell i spend too much time on the faces and neglect my anatomy studies a lot 🥲

3. don't worry too much about building a signature art style if you're a beginner! experiment and imitate art styles that you like, and it'll eventually develop into something you're comfortable with

4. speaking of art styles, Naoki Saito-sensei does very in-depth art videos for people looking to develop and improve their art, and he covers a variety of different topics! the link i provided is for his new YouTube account, since his first one was unrightfully terminated :( since it's new, there aren't a lot of videos up yet but he'll be re-uploading all his old ones soon

5. this video by tppo is also a useful tutorial/explanation for style breakdowns, using Mika Pikazo-sensei's artworks! also another good reference for building art and colouring styles

6. unless you're going for a specific art style, try not to use black colours for shading. Instead, try using a darker version of your base colour with the hue slightly adjusted. it's a little difficult to explain so i made a tiny diagram underneath:

it makes the colours pop a lot! Kurahana Chinatsu-sensei and Akiakane-sensei are really good at doing this 😭💖 that can also apply to lineart! but again, only if you're going for this kind of colourful art style :') do what feels right to you!

7. lastly try to enjoy drawing! if you do what you enjoy, learning and improving will come so much easier to you :) i can understand the urgency to improve (it's like my default state of mind 🥲) but if you keep focusing on that, drawing will eventually just start to overwhelm and frustrate you. try to combat it by doing something self-indulgent! i like to draw my ocs whenever i start getting burnt out :')

8. actually i lied this is the last one!! never give up!! it's so easy to feel bad or frustrated about your art no matter where you are in your art journey, so what i like to do to try and fight that is to look at my old art and compare the improvements! here's one of the earliest oc drawings i could find from my childhood vs my most recent oc drawing :pensive:

[ariart0]

I think I just screenshotted your tumblr account for a second time lol. I saw your art once, gasped and went "wow!" and screenshotted so when I scroll through my screenshot album it'll show your acc so I can visit again lol. And it happened again now xD. I really like your art, they are absolutely beautiful. You're amazing, I hope you know that!

Awww thank you so much! I'm so happy you enjoy my art 🥹💖

i might be reading into things a lil too much but i noticed in the dancing all night opening when the fourth verse comes in and on the first word (sharing), yosuke's face is the first to turn towards the camera and then on the second word (real) the rest of the it (excluding kanji, naoto and teddie) all turn, which is kind of cool because i kind of read it as yosuke's dialogue when he has to do backside of the tv ("But as long as I have friends who accept me for who I am, I'm gonna stick with it!")

also i just realised that your affection (Reincarnation ver.) is literally talking about yosuke and some of backside of the TV's lyrics (Lotus Juice remix) is also yosuke coded but i might be reading too much into it haha

I haven't played p4d in months but this ask opened up a wormhole and suddenly I've spent like 10hrs on it straight

You're so right though, especially on the lyrics for Your Affection

Like idk if I'm just too yosuke brained but to me the whole song just speaks of yosuke's trajectory and coming into his persona, his growth as his motivation for wanting to help matures!!

Your affection, your affection, taking pride from fear Past will tell you when to make yourself a hero Withered flowers forget What they wept for day after day Withered flowers must blossom In the stream of tears They still think of the cause Turning misery into meaningfulness Changing day after day

I also hear you on backside of the TV like especially

Jealousy jealousy running like sonic boom It's messed up how anger and hatred looms large in the dark

LIKE OH CAPTAIN RESSENTIMENT HUH the second line that's both his metaphorical, looming anger but also his literal shadow that he struggled to acknowledge at first

"Trick-or-Treat!!"

At the door is a group, five adults, and three kids. All of them are dressed like dinosaurs, with the two youngest kids wearing Dilophosaurus costumes, the eldest kid is wearing a Deinosuchus costume. Four of the adults are wearing Triceratops costumes, while the fifth is wearing a T-Rex costume.

(if you're doing the Trick-Or-Treat inbox stuff)

Applauding and hollering as my child within screeches in overwhelming joy (<- used to be a dino kid) and handing over them one of these each

"Lynn, can we ask you some questions?" Peter sat up straighter, agitated and annoyed.

-@veinrupture

„Go ahead, what is it about?” Lynn asked, already quite nervous - of course she knew what it most likely is about, that’s why it stressed her even more.

You’re on a road trip . . . where’s your first choice to stop and eat?

Hmm .... granted there was one nearby, maybe Olive Garden? there's not many pasta place options and of course free bread sticks and salad. Can't lose.

Chicken or beef ramen?

BEEF!

Who is your favorite Spongebob character?

Never actually saw it much as a kid, but probably Plankton. I too, am miserable.
