What's your opinion on frozen changed to if I may ask

First off, I forget messages were a thing, so very sorry. This message is probably 10 months old by now, but I’ll answer anyway.

After six straight years of consuming 2D Frozen fanart and anime, I’ve come to dislike Frozen’s 3D look. Yeah it looks pretty, but I don’t care for the character models like I used too. The story is still alright, but it was always just a Disney kids movie. I’ve since watched/read countless anime/manga stories that were better. I’ve generally avoided American media/entertainment these last few years too. Basically my perceptions changed because of what I have been consuming. It did not help some of the best Frozen fanart was done by Japanese and Korean fanartists using an anime/manga style.

I’ve also come to realize most of of my like for the movie was the soundtrack/music (I honestly wouldn’t have liked the movie if it was not for the soundtrack and sound directing) and participating in the fandom. Discussing and speculating about lore and world building was more entertaining than the actual movie. Then there was the shipping of course and the crazy headcanons and throwing characters into different settings, etc.

Aside from the music, Disney would never be able to satisfy me with the other items, especially the shipping. When the Frozen II preview dropped, I was afraid the direction Disney was taking with the lore and worldbuilding was not what I wanted. I haven’t seen it yet, but my concerns were well founded from what I heard. In reality, I think I just wanted things to be left alone to preserve the feeling of nostalgia of my participation in the fandom (As you can probably tell from this blog, I had a lot of fun speculating about the developmental history of Elsa’s character). I think I set myself up for failure for hoping for something far more than what Disney could ever deliver. But that was the price of living in the moment back then.

Speaking of shipping, my perceptions of shipping have also changed. I won’t get into it unless someone asks, but I basically can’t stand the Western world of shipping, yuri shipping specifically (but that’s the only kind I do). And I’m kind of burned out on fanfics and tired of overly long stories never coming to completion. Obviously I’m going to prefer anime/manga-style fanart after all these years, but I also find the few translated, generally short-story,non-h doujinsto be much more worthwhile.

Long story short, Frozen was a good story backed up by an amazing OST, but the real gem was the fandom and community.  That community is mostly gone now and my tastes have changed enough that the fandom no longer interests me. The spark that initially drove me into the fandom is no longer there. Most importantly though, the Elsa I fell in love with was the 2D caricature created by the fandom.

Lastly Disney itself has soured my opinion of Frozen. That company is pure evil and should have been broken up a decade ago.

I havn’t even seen Frozen 2 yet. Probably won’t until I can do so without giving the mouse money. Anyway, came across this during my routine trawling of Love Live fanart. First Frozen fanart I’ve save in a long time so I had to repost it. I’m still surprised by how many likes and reblogs some of my posts are still getting.

I know this account is pretty much dead, but I felt like I had to post this out there. Can’t say for sure activity will pick up again. Depends on how into it I get. My opinion on Frozen has changed a lot over the years. I’m actually surprised I still have as many followers as I do. Keep an eye out I guess.

Why are there so many ghosts at Otonokizaka and why does Riko have a wall fetish? And which girl did Honoka fuck to produce this child?

I found this sketch of Dark Elsa. I’m not thrilled with the hand, but I do like the rest.

I know my blog’s been 100% Love Live over the past few weeks, but I’ve finally got the new xkit with tag trackers and found this.

Frozen Figure Arts Elsa: Concept Art version (Onion/Evil/Early Elsa)

Don’t have the heart to paint over this one. But the little capelet and hair are good enough.

Aside from the gay, the best part of the episode.
