Aesthetically Pleasing Anime Movies

The mentions below are a combination of beautiful visuals animation movies that had captured an immediate attention due to its fresh and appealing color choices and drawing-styles; yet, still intrigued the audience with a unique plot. Before you check out the list, keep in mind that I did not forget any of Studio Ghibli productions. I think every project in Ghibli is so special that I feel I need to make a separate post, don’t you agree? Plus, I want to give a shout-out to other animes. Some are extremely underrated and need much more love and appreciation!  ❤️  this and enjoy~

One of my favourite questions for figuring out a character’s motivations is which qualities they most fear being assigned to them. Are they afraid (consciously or unconsciously) of being seen as stupid? Ungrateful? Weak? Incompetent? Lazy? Cowardly? Intimidating? Like they actually care? etc.

It’s such a fun way to explore into who they are, why they do what they do, what they don’t do out of fear, and how they might be affected by the events of the story. And I love when characters have negative motivations—trying to avoid something (in this case, being seen a particular way) as much as they’re trying to achieve a goal.

The original Superman artist Joe Shuster was rightfully bitter about the huge financial loss selling the rights to Superman caused him and his co-creator Jerry Siegel. Joe was going blind while working as a mailman and living by himself in a ratty apartment.

He made BDSM porn comics with Superman and supporting character lookalikes. Some people say it was out of pure financial desperation and a case of lookalike art that caused this. Others say it was a jab at DC comics for all that they did to him.

The story is pretty interesting of how they found this out. I’ll try and find the article because it’s wonderfully written.

This is legitimately the most horrifying tweet I’ve seen in a long time

i love cutthroat kitchen but bingewatching makes it really stand out how often alton brown refers to himself as ‘daddy’ and makes contestants wear spreader bars

I love it when people try to claim representation in fiction is being taken “too far” to the point where it’s no believable. They’re like: 

“What’s next, a mixed-race immigrant on the autism spectrum?” Hi, my name is Rachel, also known as Rachna, and I’m a mixed-race immigrant on the autism spectrum. 

“What’s next, a transgender Latino man with chronic pain?” What, you mean my former colleague, Marco? 

“What’s next, a Black Jewish lesbian?” Bitch, I know I three Black Jewish lesbians, WHAT’S YOUR FUCKING POINT?

Mermaids trapped under a lake is such a wonderful thought. Lesbian mermaids under a lake is even more wonderful.

This will always remain my favorite vintage lesbian art… Do I even have to break it down for you?
