BESTIE WAKE UP YOU CAN BOOP AGAIN!

?!!

?!!!!!!!!!!!

Huh?

Oh.

I didn't wake up early enough. I humbly apologize. After the effort you made to alert me of the revival of a grandiose event called the boopening on this fine Halloween, I failed to attend once again. Not only that, but the audacity I had to blame the world and life afterwards for a mistake that is solely my own(not getting the timing right, two.. godforsaken times even) was unequivocally improbable. It was absolutely and undeniably disgusting of me. I am a fool—an uncivilised bastard which nature recognises. Therefore, it has rightfully depraved me of what I do not deserve. All I pray is that you've had a happy boopening, dear mutuals, and everyone else who had experienced it. May joviality be within you all.

My hc about future Irumeri dating and the love trio being the love trio is that even then Ameri still gets a little jealous, she tries not to but she can't help it and tries not to show it anyway, she's not very good at it but still. One day she sees Clara kissing Iruma on the cheek and she gets a bit upset, but she doesn't say anything because she knows how close and important they are to each other. Clara notices her mood and asks her if she is upset she kiseed Iruma-chi. Ameri replies "Well, no woman would be please to see her partner kissed by another--" and is interrupted by Clara kissing her on the cheek too and being like "now you two are even👍"

"So yeah, this is Sano during junior high school! He had black hair. So nice, right?~~" scene.

What differentiates a God from a Youkai?

The Oogata twins went from Gods to Youkais, right? Yet, Sano is in a Youkai school but without being defined as one. Besides the reveal of his nature and a glimpse of his past, is there a reason for that?

i think, my interpretation of what yohaji is about, and also sort of the stance haruaki takes, is that there's not a huge difference between gods and youkai (and humans, for that matter).

gods can become youkai, humans can become youkai, humans and youkai can have children. all three have lives and experiences that the other two can relate to and empathise with, and all three can communicate with each other if they so desire.

the biggest thing driving the difference between the three is outside perspectives of the individual, and the individual's perspective of the others. gods' disdain and disregard for those they perceive as inferior to themselves, humans' dehumanizing reverence for certain types of "otherness" and fear of other types of "otherness", and youkai's rejection of and defensiveness against the "otherness" that have done them ill in the past

(for that matter, "the difference between gods and youkai is outside perspective" extends beyond the fourth wall too. to a western perspective, perhaps some of the gods that cause storms, disasters, droughts, pestilence, volcano eruptions and so on should be considered "monsters" too. and even just from a japanese perspective, raijin and fuujin are depicted as oni despite also being considered gods, and theres historical (human) figures that have shrines and are worshipped as gods, with aggrandized stories to match)

on the surface level, meiji arc does posit that there are differences between the three, by haruaki saying that he "didnt realise there was that big of a difference between humans and youkai" in regards to the lifespan thing, but you have to consider that kai was bringing that up deliberately in an attempt to hurt hatanaka, so that he could perhaps feel the same pain kai felt. kai brings up the lifespan thing, something he considers an immutable, unchangeable fact of the universe, just as he considered the societal and familial circumstances he lived in to be impossible to change.

but hatanaka marries ibara, and kai lives to be in a world where he's dating a man. the superficial details dont matter in the end. what matters is that there is love in the world and you are surrounded by people who interact with you and who influence you and who you influence.

so yeah basically what im getting at is yohaji is about autism and queerness and depression and trauma and disability. more than its about youkai or gods or folklore, yohaji is about the Human Experience™ thank you for coming to my ted talk

when baek deoksu wrote a few horror scenes in debut or die i wondered why it's so good for a idol genre and seeing their new novel, 괴담출근/ghost worker (that's just my way of calling the title) it all makes sense now

when i was reading the first few chapters of the new novel gave me KIS Company (testar lore worldview) and LAMB game (one of testar's shows) vibes lol

Tumblr, stop showing me this. I'm not even in this fandom. Stop sending every post about this to my dashboard. Stop. Kindly. Benevolently.

Spoilers ‼️

so you're telling me that Till's last ever vision was him reaching out to his unattainable god. he was never able to truly reach her. he was struck down for even trying to come close.

[whochromatic]

It is. Why do you like people who are typically attracted to men? Are you trying to share hobbies? That is very homosexual.

I colored a manga page!!!!! I'm really proud of it !!!!!

Daydreaming about Natsume Yuujinchou x YoHaji.

So many ideas in mind 🤣

Here's one:

___

The gang or the class goes on vacation or touristic visit nearby the area where Natsume lives. Haruaki, with his universal "luck", manages to get lost. As he is failing to find his way back, he walks into Natsume and Nyanko-sensei, who unbeknownst to the teen, senses Haruaki's spiritual power, and possibly recognize him (or more likely his ancestor).

After Haruaki bawling his eyes out and Natsume begrudgingly agreeing to guide him to his class, they talk and get to know each other a little bit.

Of course, Haruaki omits the part about his class being a bunch of Youkais and Natsume keeps his abilities and the book of friends under wraps.

Until a local ayakashi goes after said object.

Natsume, not wanting to involve his new "acquaintance", tries to make a mad dash for it... Only to be spooked the hell out of him by Haruaki following him because he didn't want to be left alone.

It's when he asks the silver/gold haired teen about why he was targeted by a Youkai.

Natsume skids to a stop, causing Haruaki to crash into him and sending Nyanko-sensei into a bush.

"You can see it?!" He grasps the teacher up to his feet.

Haruaki makes his confused face.

"This guy is like you, Natsume." The maneki neko jumps out, scaring the crap out of the brunette. "He has a powerful ancestry DNA."

"A talking cat? Are you a Bakeneko? Or maybe a nekomata -" the teacher flips into his book, only to have it smacked into his face.

"Don't compare the majestic me ([Ore-sama]) to those low ranked small fry!" The cat huffs.

Haruaki let out a cry of pain, and outrage regarding calling his nekomata student a low ranked small fry.

Natsume didn't have the time to ask any question as the ayakashi came back.

He readies himself to protect the older male -

"Leave the kid alone!"

Natsume shields his eyes, barely able to see Haruaki standing before him, generating a bright and giant pentagram who obliterates the ayakashi to unconsciousness.

"What the heck..."

"Are you okay?" Haruaki asked him.

"I... I think so - HMPFFFF!!!??"

Natsume finds himself in a tight embrace as Haruaki bawls his eyes out again.

"THANK GOODNESS! THAT WAS SO SCARY, WAAAAHHHH!"

"Let... Me... Go..." The teen struggles. "I... Said... LET GO!"

Haruaki is lying on the ground, nursing a growing bump as Natsume's fist was steaming.

"You're... As ruthless as... Sano..." The teacher whined.

"Oi."

Natsume turns around, to see a group of students looking not so sympathetically at him.

"What do you think you're doing to our teacher, huh?" A red headed guy with an eye patch creaked his knuckles.

"Yare yare..." Nyanko-sensei yawned before plopping up on a wall.

I love the cover and I know once the first 100 or so chapters are out it might change into a very handsome masked deer man but listen, this is art

It’s like a shitty infomercial ad, the bright shitty colors n bold text, I dare say id rather keep this cover for as long as possible…. I just keep looking at it. Yes Baek Deoksu, I’ll come work for the company 🫡…. urgent hiring? (crazy) welfare? (no what’s the use of 미친 here, that can’t be a good thing is it lol)

*the company is not responsible for any injuries or death while employees are working

I am so serious when I say if you want to learn about light, you NEED to at least look at modeseven’s tutorials. even if you’re not pursuing a painterly style, this is all essential theory that can be easily adapted to different coloring styles. notice how none of these ever say ‘light with these colors and shade with these colors’? notice how this is teaching how light works on a mechanical level, and reminding the audience to adjust the actual colors they choose by context? THAT is good advice.

(if you’re thinking ‘wow I want to study more of this persons art!’ I encourage you to do so, but proceed with the knowledge that modeseven draws pretty much exclusively weird as hell kink art. sometimes wisdom comes from horny places)
