it's cool how they have a reference just for Fukiko's hair... not exactly a braid, but the component of her hair that's somewhat analogous to one. So elegant...

IMO vampire can mean anyone and everyone who doesn't fit into the ideology of work and employment, which includes both feudal nobility and ppl begging for money at opposite ends of the spectrum, it can be exploited or exploiters, whats important is that they do not contribute to the homogenized social order (which is basically good even for the nobility)
I know vampirism is often used as a metaphor for the drain of the aristocracy but I think it would be fun to have more vampire characters who were just some guy before they got turned. You seek out the most ancient vampire in existence and find out he was a 40 year old wheat farmer in ancient Mesopotamia when he was turned 7,000 years ago and he hasn’t been doing much since then.
but looking at your phone to consume even more media in the middle of reading is maximalist and excessive, solar-economy pilled
(not sure if I'm /s or /j with this one)
every time you assume a post about art & transgression is referring to pornographic fanfiction about cartoons you should be locked in a cell and not released until you’ve read at least 1 work by georges bataille (you have to start over if you look at your phone)

realistic,* technically demanding art styles have so much cultural clout over other styles that many people feel compelled to get good at them even when there's no reason to do so. I don't think you need to be good at such things to produce powerful stylized art
*maybe 'illusionistic' would be a better term
I assume this is from Capriccio Farce, which is very melodically creative and has a strange atmosphere... worth listening to
the word 'farce' here is a translation of "chaban" which was once a specific genre of Japanese theatre
"Soul of Adam who fell in the trap, there’s nothing you can accomplish anymore"
by Hiroshige III (a student of the more famous Hiroshige).
It's extra Dai-Nippon Gothich because it's an ad for a circus performing on the grounds of the Yasukuni shrine.
Although I don't think it's something from the game, the guest book on the silvery tablecloth, against those walls, gives the exact vibes of a scene from Ib but in real life. Whoever designed this knew what they were doing!
I went to the Ib exhibition!!! Here’s some pictures!!!! I couldn’t include everything because tumblr only allows 10 images on mobile only which is a bummer
It was really cool!! Some of the paintings actually moved, and there was a section where we were given VR headsets and got to experience the doll room scene with Garry and the key which was very neat!! Also Garry’s acrylic stand at the gift shop was totally sold out LOL
