Thanks JJK!

I guess it's been over a week since jjk ended....wow....

I haven't been in this fandom for long, only having watched the anime in april and I couldn't wait, so I read the manga up to date in like 2 weeks....

This piece of media has had such an impact on me, pulling me in with its compelling characters I couldn't get enough of. And wherever I wished there would be a bit more interaction, a bit more emotion, someone in the fandom had created something to fill that gap.

I didn't hate the ending, yes it did leave some things to be desired but I'm happy to know the fandom has dozens of creative ways to interact with it!

Oh yess the angst of self sacrificing idiots! That's what I'm here for!

Okay this random soul eater rewatch while I'm sick turned out to be wireder than I expected.... I remember having to ignore a lot of oversexualised stuff but some scenes almost physically hurt now that I watch them years later....

I just wanted to know if the cool world building and character interactions held up and I think I remember it getting better as the anime went on...but damn..... that really makes it harder to watch than I hoped....

Okay a few more episodes in it already got way better and I remember why I loved that show....the humor and character interactions.... and the music SLAPS!

It's spooky season. Y'all know what that means.

Them!

A little sketch page of screencap redraws I did to get the hang of their faces better...

I just spent about half an hour scrolling through cute domestic Yuji and Choso comics totally forgetting I searched for a smiling Yuji reference....

What a good half hour....

Keeping this quote to my grave

this chapter is so silly and lighthearted i kind of vibe with it a lot :'> the goofy expressions, the first years being kids n interacting like old times,, it feels very freeing and maybe i'm reaching but it feels like gege had fun drawing it, or at least wanted to. after finishing an entire manga and enduring the shit his audience put him through, if he wants to spend his final chapter drawing the trio making the dumbest fucking faces at each other he 100% deserves to

HAPPY LAST OFFICIAL ITAFUSHI FRIDAY 😭😭😭

Will still be doing it every Friday but like this is the last one before the manga officially ends on Sunday so this one is extra special 🩵🩷

now that im thinking abt it more im actually so sad jjk is done, like as much as i've complained these past few chapters, i really have enjoyed reading it. i've enjoyed writing about jjk and theorizing and making meta posts. i've enjoyed staying up late for leaks and i've enjoyed making new friends.

obviously im not going anywhere like im gonna keep yapping but yk. im still sad.

When BoJack Horseman (2014-2020) said "you can't keep doing shitty things and then feel bad about yourself like that makes it ok. you need to be better" and "all we have are the connections we make" and "I really should've thought about the view from halfway down" and "sometimes you have to take responsibility for your own happiness" and "you do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around, you turn yourself around, THAT'S what it's all about" and "things have to get worse before they can get better" and "in real life, the big gesture isn't enough, you need to be consistent" and "if we hadn't met each other until now, we wouldn't be the people we are now" and, my personal favourite, "every day it gets a little easier, but you gotta do it every day, that's the hard part, but it does get easier".

This articulates so many of my thoughts! This rushed ending really made me wonder what might be going on behind the scenes.... I don't know much about the industry and don't want to speculate too much, but I found it weird that he had a hiatus and then the ending came so soon....

I really don't know what to expect from the ending and maybe that's better, going in without clear expectations....

I guess I'll have to wait....

Honestly, considering how Gege is treating JJK in interviews and talks about it and the characters i also doubt he will continue it

Again, JJK as we know it now is NOT what Gege intended for it to be

He changed a lot of things to please a editor of his and ended up with a complete different story and had to adapt characters to fit the new concept

Yeah, I know those interviews where he wasn't pleased with his first editor he had right before the JJK serialization and at the start of it. He did have to change many things because that editor didn't think his original ideas would work. In a recent Q&A he talked again about the changes JJK went through at the beginning before the current characters and storylines were ultimately decided on.

Those original ideas included having Megumi as the main protagonist, him being possessed by Sukuna, the story starting with a Culling Game like setting and other things.

To say though, that because Gege didn't/couldn't start his manga like he wanted to means he would be glad when it's finally over now... that sounds a little ridiculous. It's like saying Gege doesn't have ownership or love for his own story and chaarcters and that's... not something that I ever got the impression of.

In his last interview he talked openly about how he changed things to make the story work better. A bad editor at the time of course would've soured that process but with a good editor changes like that would've happened anyway. Look eg at the original concept of Demon Slayer.

And in the end, Gege still got to implement the ideas he had. Megumi still got possessed. The Culling Games were realized. From what I remember, the things Gege regretted in the story are bad buildups and that he didn't manage to have Yuji and the real Tsumiki meet once.

On that note, if we go with "he couldn't write the story he wanted to", a JJK Part 2 would actually be something he could look forward to in that regard. Starting everything with a fresh chapter 1 with editors he actually gets along with, he can write the story as he actually envisons it. I guess, but I have no idea about the actual industry machinations here, that he could negotiate better pay and the like for himself as well.

Of course that doesn't mean JJK 2 is guaranteed or something. Gege could love his story to bits and still not make more of it but ultimately we'll see that next week (or next year if we look at other manga that got a sequel where they waited some time before anouncing anything)

You've seen 'my-county-or-region' Miku...now get ready for hyperspecific 'my-trip-to-hamburg' Miku!

Featuring:

- cute outfit I bought in Hamburg

- adorable moth earrings I bought at a cute little art shop

- probably the Best oat milk coffee I ever had from a cozy book Café (in a very pretty cup)

- random headband I bought at dm because the wind was cold

Aaanndd my first time trying malatang!

Sometimes you just gotta stand under some tall ass trees.

I’ve been waiting a year to post this

I have such a niche idea for an AU but I still struggle so much drawing the main trio that I went back to screen redraw sketches to get more comfortable with their features.... only got one sketch of Yuji far because I'm on a triptan and incredibly tired....

i feel like i do 25% of what an average person does in a day and still it's too much

My laptop just died midway into a really nice sketch 😭

I don’t WANT a career. I want to cuddle and sleep and eat and read and create and love and be loved.

“i can fix him” “i can make him worse” i can imagine him in little scenarios every night as i’m falling asleep

Hello! I love your art, have a great day :)

Hehe, Thanks!

I will in Hamburg! ^^

Manifesting a NobaMaki hug for the next chapter (I know it will probably not happen but a girl can dream!)

to moving forward

i fucking love talking to my friends who are also artists... endless mutual infodumping... bouncing ideas back and forth
