UMM Hugh had me scared there for a second I was about to find out who I need to beat for making him sad
Just practicing realistic/racial-accurate sketches featuring The Grand Prix Final skaters (Plus Viktor!) <3
What do you guys think? :D
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood surely is ironic.
hikaru no go is a whole gem
but as much as i like it, it’s been hard to reread it while remembering how unsatisfying the ending is....
also i don’t wanna get to the sad part and I’m really close
Playing the Meijin with a 15 moku handicap? 2 months of forfeits? 5-5, tengen, 5-5 opening in an important qualifier match? Replacing Touya as first board only in the match against Korea?

Don’t have them die of old age after a long, fulfilling life. Many people don’t even think of this as sad (note that this can still work if you have enough of the other factors).
Leave one of their major goals unfinished. The more enthusiastic they are about completing the goal, the sadder.
Give them strong relationships with other characters.
Make them fight against whatever is causing their death. Their ultimate loss is sadder if they struggle.
Kill them in the middle of their character arc.
Don’t describe their funeral in detail. Maybe it’s just me, but I find that long descriptions of funerals kill the sadness.
