Undead Unluck | Official Teaser Trailer 1 (with English Captions)

Thank you for responding to my soapbox of a reblog. I mostly made it because I felt guilty for making Jimmy Jr. antagonistic in some of my incorrect BB quotes. Exactly, Tina and Jimmy Jr. are both flawed and still learning as teenagers. The show is from Tina's perspective/the Belcher family's perspective though so it's easier to unintentionally defend Tina too much than look at Jimmy Jr.'s perspective in it I feel. It's not right but it is what it is.

For now, they are just having fun and enjoying the kissing and hand-holding. That's all a 13-year-old needs at that age. I never considered Jimmy Jr. a cheater, I was more mad at him for immediately dumping Becky after Tina decided to be the bigger person and showed she wasn't going to be petty for him. (Also the picture frame thing which I didn't count as cheating either but still a jerk move even though he could put any picture he wants in the frame especially if he wasn't dating Tina at the time) Yeah, Tina and Jimmy Jr. as a pair just don't have an interesting dynamic to me. Too much kissing, petty fighting, and not enough talking to each other as friends with no asterisks so I can actually see something is there besides hormones. The hormones are a part of the joke I know but I still long for something more concrete.

I'm also a sucker for opposites attract pairs so Zeke and Tina were always going to be superior to me even if JJ wasn't so divisive as a character. It goes beyond opposites attract but I don't need to make the reblog as long as the other one.

I love Zeke x Tina, but there's so much Jimmy Jr hate in the community. Like... guys, I get it, he can be a bit sour sometimes... but do you know why that is? He's a TEENAGE BOY, not only that, but his parents are divorced, his dad is very neglectful and puts him down, he looks down on his passion for dance and honesty just gives: "I am a toxic straight dad and when I see the slightest bit of creativity, it means pansy and you will be punished"; he's also said that he feels left out and lonely due to his little brothers being twins and being best friends. He's just a kid, a kid who likes to dance, leave him alone. In my head, in a world were Tina and Zeke end up together, Jimmy Jr would still be there, as the bff. The three of them can't be separated, are you kidding me????

Just Another Cute Zekina Headcanon:

So I've been trying to mark off all the episodes that Zeke sits to the left of Tina in class ever since I really started noticing it in season 13. First I'll list what I found so far and then I'll get into the headcanon surrounding it. Disclaimer, I'm only human and I'm not aware of all the episodes that show Zeke and Tina in class together. I'm just only going by the BB wiki that lists the times Zeke appeared in a season and my own memory of whether the episode contained a classroom scene or not. In short, this post might get edited as time goes on if I find new frames by accident I can add.

So now onto screenshots. I'm not going to bother with chronological order because I don't want to. The most interesting one I found so far is "Pig Trouble in Little Tina". Before Tina enters into her nightmare we see Zeke to her left. After she wakes up from her nightmare, Zeke is gone.

What the heck is that all about? Why insert Zeke in only to make him disappear? My side headcanon is that Zeke went to the bathroom (or skipped class, either is possible) while Tina was sleeping because if Zeke was there he would have been the only one to ask if she was alright. They needed the scene to move along asap so they had to get rid of him because of it. XD

The next one isn't in Miss Jacobson's class but still shows the Zeke being to Tina's left pattern.

In "Bob and Deliver" their placement is obvious because it is to show that Tina will see Zeke as a rival in the episode. Also, it's simply easier for the audience to follow along with the conversation if they are next to each other. Next is "The Hormone-iums". The placement of Jimmy Jr., Tina, and Zeke is also for plot reasons. For some reason, Zeke isn't in the last one of the row like he usually is while Jimmy Jr. isn't in front of Zeke. The boys needed to be in those places though to show Tina's nervousness when she watches Tammy slanders her.

Still, even if the chair arrangements have changed, Zeke is still to Tina's left. Now for "Crystal Mess". While the placements of the characters are for plot relevance, it's also the closest to sticking with the current sitting arrangements of the characters. The outlier is Tammy since Jocelyn is more often than not in front of Tina from the other frames I found.

"Touch of (Eval)ulations"

"Cheaty Cheaty Bang Bang"

"These Boots are Made for Stalking"

Now that I got all the scenes out of the way (as far as I know because there are a lot of episodes with Zeke in them), I can get to the point of this post. Since to Tina's left is the window, I headcanon that Tina daydreams and looks out of that window a lot. Even if Miss Jacobson is the one that assigns the seats for the students and it's not up to the students, I headcanon that Zeke specifically wants to be to Tina's left over her right because of the window. Anytime Zeke glances over at Tina for a second while she's daydreaming directly at the window, he likes to pretend for a moment that Tina is looking at him. He knows the window is getting all of Tina's attention, but it's still a nice thought that keeps him going for the rest of the time in Miss Jacobson's class. That's it for the headcanon. It's not much, but it's cute and I like it. X3

was hoping to add more characters before posting this wallpaper, but I wanted to make it on time when it came to submitting fanart to the Hey Arnold 25th Anniversary Podcast hosted by the Old School Lane YouTube channel. Go to their channel to see what they are doing soon. Oh well, maybe next time when I comes to the characters. Here's to 25 years of Hey Arnold! (Credit to MELONOLSON for the head inspiration) P.S. I added my HA OC in the wallpaper because it's my fanart and I can do whatever I want with it! LOL XD Plus, I needed to make it symmetrical and she was the only one I had left that made sense. I'll remove her whenever I get around to updating the wallpaper and add more characters.

@mambocat No,no! It has nothing to do with you. I was referring to that my comments don’t always get replied to. Mostly because I don’t always bring up anything worth adding onto for various reasons or I just reblogged at a bad time and I get missed accidentally.

You did nothing wrong, I just mostly said that out of pessimism. I’m a little histrionic (that’s a word you don’t read every day).

Anyway, to get back on topic. Mario Odyssey looks nice but reminiscent of Sonic Adventure and only makes it worse when Mario rolls like Sonic now. Here’s to hoping Project 2017 is awesome.

So I need to just take a moment to poop on everyone’s party…I just watched the trailer for “Super Mario Odyssey,” and while it does indeed look very interesting, I can’t help but feel salty over the double standard being utilized here.

So the trailer starts with what appears to be New York or some other large REAL WORLD city, with actual humans - as in realistic ones - walking around minding their own business, and then SUDDENLY here comes Mario with his signature whoo hoo to turn everything into fodder for his cartoon physics.

Now that in and of itself is not a bad thing, no problem with the premise itself. My issue is…fairly simple to understand and may even come off as petty but I’ll risk it regardless.

If everyone is excited about Mario being in the real world…

WHY IN GOD’S NAME WAS IT CONSIDERED A HORRIBLE IDEA FOR SONIC AND STILL IS TO THIS DAY?!

As soon as Mario does it, all that talk about “oh Sonic is a cartoon hedgehog and he doesn’t belong in a realistic universe” goes out the window. You can’t praise Mario for doing it and then say Sonic doesn’t belong when they’re both video game characters who are clearly “out of place” in the world they’re in.

The only difference I can foresee happening here is that Mario won’t have much of a “story” as usual despite the name “odyssey” and Mario of course won’t talk.

And if that does turn out to be the key difference, then Sonic being in the real world was never the problem as so many people claim. The issue was the story itself. How dare someone take a silent protagonist and try to give him a personality?

SEGA tried everything to “backpedal” from the hyper realistic art style, making the humans more cartoony as opposed to actually looking like real life humans. But it didn’t matter, Sonic was still in the “real” world and thus it was bad.

Only when humans (sans Eggman) were cut out altogether were so-called fans happy with the world Sonic lived in again. Where all the humans? Who cares, Sonic shouldn’t be with humans anyway.

But apparently this is okay, because it’s Mario instead of Sonic. Real humans? Yeah that’s okay! It’s about time Mario ventured past the Mushroom Kingdom a little bit!

I call BS, hard.

Since Mario did what he did, then I don’t wanna hear one godforsaken complaint from ANYONE if Project 2017 decides to go back to using human background characters.

I’ve gotten into debates with gamer friends of mine who say that Sonic in the real world (Earth) actively angers them. I should ask them how they feel about Mario and see if they expose their own hypocrisy.

I’m sorry if this angers anyone who thinks I’m complaining too early, but again, it’s not what Mario did that bothers me, it’s that people will inevitably complain if/when Sonic decides to do the EXACT SAME THING while Mario gets praise for it.

That’s why I say I don’t wanna see anyone get angry with Sonic in the real world…but we all know they will. Because it’s Sonic.

Poor guy, he’s doomed to be hated for all of eternity.

My Kacchako Babies Have Forms!

MHA Character Sheet template by shadowmist0706 https://www.tumblr.com/shadowmist0706/641599201808138240/hey-could-you-post-a-blank-oc-character-sheet Font used - Futura Display Now that I got credits out of the way I can talk about my babies! For context I drew Shinkei at age 14 while the other two are both 6. First off I changed Zuyoboru's name to Shinkei because I grew to hate the way it flowed with the last name, Bakugo. Shinkei, it makes the reference to Izuku "extending a hand" to others more subtle but it still works. Also Shinkei could be a pun for another kanji that uses Shinkei that translates to "nerve" which fit his quirk so it all works out. Plus it uses kanji from both Best Jeanist's and Edgeshot's name as a way to honor them as thanks for keeping Bakugo alive during the final war. I also decided to make Ayase the only one with a quirk that's associated with Bakugo's and Ochako's quirk. I thought it would be more interesting for Ryochi to cause destruction while quirkless instead of a natural disaster's quirk based on the combination of Ochako's and Katsuki's quirk. Plus, it felt thematic in a "history repeating itself" way given that Inko and Hisashi Midoriya have essentially similar, less poweful version of Katsuki's and Ochako's quirk. Anyway, I don't normally draw anime so I hope you like my designs. I did my best. I had fun developing these concepts and finally giving them form. I doubt it if I'll do it for the rest of my MHA fankid concepts because I was only planning to give Kacchako special treatment. lol Edit 12/8/2024- Realized too late I somehow mistaken that "kei" kanji I used was actually the thing that Best Jeanist's name was making a homophone type pun of and not part of his actual name. Regardless, it's still works out in the end. I just thought I should be honest about that blunder after the fact. XD Edit 12/10/2024 - Changed Ayase's name to Misaka because I was bothered by the ending sounds of all the kid's name leaning to similarly and I wanted to break the mold. I also wanted to add more symbolism to her kanji. Edit 12/18/2024 - Changed Misaka's name to Tochiya because I can never make up my freaking mind! Also I saw potential for alternate kanji reading potential and wanted to pull an Izuku to Deku for Tochiya. Just something to continue my pattern of history repeating itself/karmic justice thing I'm going for with the Kacchako kids.

Edit 3/22/2025 - Changed their last names from Bakugo to Uraraka, Changed some character bio details, and Changed some features of Tochiya's face so it would make more sense.

@tacosandtouchtanks Okay, I just wanted to update you that I made a decision a day or two ago but haven't said anything till now. Here's the thing, I decided for my touch tank idea I would do the creatures that could actually appear in a touch tank. This is the best option so Tina can project onto the touch tank creatures in her moment of crisis. So sadly, shrimp is not an option anymore for the touch tank idea. In better news, I now have my cast. Zeke: Sea cucumber (obviously that's not going to change) Tina: Sea urchin (kina specifically) Jimmy Jr.: Starfish (Not required to read this part, I'm just explaining the reasons for my choice through the power of synopsis XD)

While perhaps when Tina was 13 she probably dreamt of herself as a starfish. As she gets older though her anxiety gets to her and now through her narrow perspective, she sees herself as a sea urchin. So say after her break up with Jimmy Jr. She leaves her childhood home to find herself. Along the way, she has given up on finding her soulmate and only goes on casual dates. There's still that idealism inside her but she keeps it hidden through her spines of denial and suppression of her feelings. So while she's not expecting to find her soul mate on the first date, she would still hope to at least find a guy that's worth more than 1 date. She goes to the touch tank to try to relax and reflect on all that led up to now. She starts to hate her own reflection because she hates how she fears intimacy now when that's all she ever wanted. She believes that all her attempts at relationships just ended up hurting someone one way or another. She believes all she ever does is make things worse and that even though she wants intimacy, she'll never be able to truly be accepted by someone. Even now, as she's back in her childhood home, Zeke has been determined to try to start a relationship with her. While she feels an emotional connection with him after years of friendship, even then she keeps him at a distance because she's comfortable with the relationship they have already. Deep down, she also doesn't want to admit the superficial reason why she hasn't given Zeke a chance. She simply wasn't attracted to him physically. She doesn't want what happened with Henry Haber and her to happen to him, Zeke doesn't deserve that. She's scared that emotional connection won't be strong enough to overcome her stupid type preference. After all, her own mother left her fiance for her dad simply because he had a sexy mustache. Who's to say that she wouldn't do the same to Zeke? Just the thought of that kills her. So to her, it's better for her to keep it as just friendship with Zeke even if maybe she might even want to give him a chance. She's just too superficial and it's better if he just realizes she's not worth it and moves to someone who deserves him more than she ever did. She drifts off into an aquatic-themed daydream as she immerses her hands in the water again. As a sea urchin, she tried so many ways to find love in the beautiful starfishes of the world. Unfortunately, even though both creatures have regeneration abilities, none of the starfishes wanted anything to do with her because of how unapproachable she looked and how awkward she acted. In turn, Sea Urchina (I'm just going to use this for sea urchin Tina and do puns for the rest) tries her hardest by consuming as many algae as she can to clean the ocean. Sadly, she would overdo it in the end and the algae she consumed killed a kelp forest. This made her relations with the entire ocean worse when all she wanted to do was help and show she was more than her appearance. So she closes herself off from others, thinking no one would miss her anyway. No one was willing to get close to her because of the spines and how the spines would affect them. She tried so hard to make it work with Starry Jr, but even she eventually grew tired of the two constantly regenerating from each other's attempts at a relationship. She had her sea urchin family to turn to at least. She had adjusted to their spines so she could handle their jabs because she knew it all came from love. Even so, she still longed to be accepted as she was from at least one outside her family. She didn't want to spend the rest of her life thinking all she did was make everything worse for the other fish.

Then along came Zeke U. Cumber. Despite her insecurities telling her, she's better off keeping her distance from other fish so no one gets hurt. Zeke U. Cumber reminds Sea Urchina that while she did destroy the kelp forest, things weren't as bad as they seemed. The aftermath of the kelp forest made it a great space for urchins, sea cucumbers, and even starfish, though none of the starfish will admit it. So even if didn't work out the way Sea Urchina planned, the ocean will still be a better place because she's in it. Sea Urchina will never be able to tell how Zeke U. Cumber is able to make the best out of the worst of situations. He was always making the world a better place, he even let shrimp ride him as well as crabs,  polychaete worms, and pearlfish live in his anus just so they can be safe. Zeke U. Cumber had nothing to gain from being so helpful but he did it anyway, he even helped her see that she's not the bane of the ocean's existence. Originally, she dreamed of being seen as someone as wonderful as a starfish despite being a sea urchin. She thought she could never bring anything other than pain to those she wanted to be close to, so she stopped trying. Then along came an optimistic sea cucumber to show her that she's already wonderful on her own and even if the whole ocean doesn't see it that way, she still did her part in helping and making a difference. Tina comes back from her daydream and realizes how much of a fool she's been. For years Zeke has been supporting all his friends, including her for years with nothing in return. He was always there to support his friends but who was there to support him? Even in her own daydream, she used Zeke as a way to pick herself up but never did it for him. She thinks of Zeke's warm smile, how he always makes the best of a situation even if it's crappy. She thinks of how Zeke at times has the energy of a hyper bulldog and how adorable it can be at times. She always had a thing for accents, it wasn't a foreign one but it was still an accent. She has her suspicions that Zeke has been working on his glutes, so maybe... Wait, holy crap! Was she actually attracted to Zeke? Maybe this could actually work and she was overthinking it? She's not 13 anymore so perhaps she can overcome her type preference and find the unique ways that make Zeke attractive after all. I mean she had an emotional connection with Zeke, something that she didn't have with Henry Haber. So maybe it was because of her emotional attraction to Zeke she was able to overcome what she usually liked in a guy. It was more than that though, she was done being selfish. Zeke has never given up on her even when she gave him every reason to do so. She wants to be the one to give back to him. She wants to support him after years of him supporting everyone. She wants to be there to comfort him when the mask came off and he's vulnerable. Even if the thought of messing things up and hurting him scares her. She believes without a doubt that they can overcome it because Zeke is stubborn as a mule and she's never getting rid of him. She runs back to the restaurant to find Zeke and starts giving back. It wasn't going to be easy for her to overcome her lingering anxiety. She knows in the end it will be worth it once she finally lets go and let Zeke into her inner world. It was time for this sea urchin to stop being spineless.

Zekina Touch Tank Idea I Could Use Help On:

Okay, it's so super clear to me that the sea cucumber is the perfect sea creature to represent Zeke. There's just so much about the sea cucumber that relates to Zeke in hilarious ways. The most important one is that the sea cucumber is that it's a creature that is always helping others but rarely gets anything back. The majority of their relationships are more commensal than symbiotic, they aren't being harmed but they aren't gaining anything either. You can also do the pun Zeke u cumber. It's not the best pun but it's something. XD

My problem is that I don't know which sea creature could represent Tina. I have some candidates but I would really like some input as well because I'm not sure which is the best to choose? Here's the list I have so far. 1. Tuna (for the pun for Tina and an opportunity for Zeke to say "you tuna me on". A redemption for his canned Tina joke and general attitude in "Presto Tina-O" lol) 2. Kina (a New Zealand sea urchin and another Tina pun opportunity and an "I'm kina you" joke ((like I'm keen on you if that wasn't obvious already)), Sea urchins do eat sea cucumbers, but they also are part of the same family as sea cucumbers and starfish so make of that what you will) 3. Hermit Crab (least favorite option. While Saucy the hermit carb is important to Zekina lore, hermit crabs eat sea cucumbers so not a good choice) 4. Shrimp (Nothing pun-worthy, but shrimp does technically have the most symbiotic relationship to sea cucumbers, the shrimp still benefits more though. There's also something poetic you can do with shrimp seeing more colors than other creatures) 5. Sea Cucumber (I mean, I guess Tina probably could see herself as a sea cucumber as well, but this is my second least favorite option because it's boring) So I would appreciate any feedback on which one you like best for Tina. I really want a sea creature that fits Tina for her and Zeke's dynamic. My favorite is between the shrimp and the kina. Let the aquatic themes prevail for these two! XD

Normal/Flying So, a bunch of birds. Not the most exciting but I love my show tunes and jazz. XD

I’m going to have to go WATER/BUG

Shadows of the Old World Main Party, but in Fancy Clothes:

This is an au idea I wanted to do for the team. Everything is the same, except a specific spoiler event never happened and they all got to wear fancy clothes/accessories for a formal event. The idea first came about when I decided I really wanted the series to have a ball episode at least once, mostly for shipping reasons but still XD. I'm still very much an Olwint shipper over Oldrian, but I needed to know my audience and cater to the more popular ship. It's still my au though, so I can still say Flint gets the last dance with Olwen, so to speak, in the end. lol I'm so glad to finally have closure on this idea. Hope you all enjoy what I made.

Daww!

I just want them to be happy I don’t care what Ronaldo says on his blog.

An Introductory Timeline of Western Women's Fashion

I think a good place to start to get into dress history is general overview of the whole timeline. Understanding especially how the silhouettes change is really important ground knowledge to build the rest of the information on.

I'll start the timeline from Middle Ages and go till the first world war. I'll focus on upper class England/French sector, so keep in mind that before 17th century there were huge regional differences in fashion inside Europe and class differences too. There is a lot variance, changes and nuance inside any century and decade I'm about to discuss, but I'll try to keep this short and introductory and very simplified. I used a very scientific method of basically what makes most sense to me to divide the periods. I've made sketches what I would consider to be the basic silhouette of the period stripped mostly out of the detail and then I give couple of primary source examples.

12th century (Middle Ages)

Dress was simple one or more tunics over a chemise. They were overly long for upper classes, made out of straight lines. There were loose tunics often worn over another tunic, and tunics with laced bodice called biaut. In France bliaut sleeves often widened from the elbow, in England they often widened in frists.

13th century (Middle Ages)

Clothing was mostly very similar as in the previous century, though bliaut was mostly gone and new popular style was a loose sleeves surcoat.

14th century (Middle Ages)

Tailoring basically revolutionized clothing production, since clothes weren't made out of rectangles anymore and could be better made to fit form. Also functional buttons and lacing was popularized resulting in very fitted styles. The underlayer tunic, kirtle, became a fitted supporting layer.

15th century (Middle Ages)

Improvements in weaving technology and trade and growing prosperity in Europe showed in clothing as excess of fabric and variety of trends. Houppelande, a loose A-lined overdress lined with fur and fastened with a wide belt under breasts, became a very popular clothing item, and in later decades developed into the iconic Burgundian dress (the red dress). Fitted overdress continued to be popular alongside the warmer houppelandes.

1500s-1550s (Tudor period)

In the renaissance era clothing became increasingly structured and elaborate. The bodice was heavily boned and the skirt was also structured.

1560s-1610s (Elizabethan Era)

Both structuring and elaborate decoration reach it's peak during Queen Elizabeth's reign. She became the defining fashion icon of the late renaissance.

1620s-1670s (Baroque)

In baroque era the bodice was still heavily structured, but more curved than the conical Elizabethan bodice. Otherwise though structuring was replaces with dramatic excess of fabric.

1680s-1710s (Baroque)

In the late 17th century there was a huge shift in the clothing industry as mantua, a loose open robe inspired by Japanese kimono, came to dominate fashion. Rigid bodice was replaces by structured under layer, stays. Stays brought back the conical silhouette of Elizabethan era.

1720s-1780s (Rococo)

Mantua developed into the iconic Rococo dress in France, robe à la francaise (first example picture), and in England robe à la anglaise with closed bodice. Rococo fashion was characterized by the wide silhouette of the skirt.

Since Tumblr won't accept more than 10 pictures per a post I'll have to continue in a reblog. So to be continued!
