Finally, 2024 is almost over

 It's New Year's Eve! I'm so done with 2024 bro, waiting for 2025 to come. A lot happened but also nothing happened this year iykwim. I made some resolutions for this year on Jan 1 or before that but only accomplished some (it's okay tho I'll make more realistic ones this year probably) Anyways thank goodness this year went by pretty quickly. There were some good moments, but I'm excited for 2025. 

Please let 2025 be my year πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

Song OTD

 It's the last song of 2024 yall. Idk why but it feels very sorrowful. Anyways, today's song is summer, night (feat. wave to earth) by Jeon Jin Hee! It was kinda hard to pick a last song ngl. I was gonna pick something more depressing but this fits better I think.

Haircut

I used to loathe getting haircuts but I got one recently and it's actually kinda actually okay now. I feel like Lily hehe ☺️ It feels like I barely have any hair now omg it's so light with a bunch of layers. Also realized I kinda missed my straight hair.. Now I just need to wait for my hair to grow out again :D 

Song OTD

 

Today's song is возвращайся (Come Back) by angel vox! It has a very surreal vibe to it. I need to listen more to music in different countries..

NOO I FORGOT TO POST THIS ON CHRISTMAS

I made this on Dec 22, 2021. Never showed it to anyone for some reason before so I wanted to post it now. It's some characters from stories I made with my friend! Good times fr

suki and kris my goats (even tho no one cares abt kris)
also looking at this i lowkey wanna redesign ash and cath 
And since it's almost New Year's too here's my NY art I made for 2022! Also drew this on 12/22/21. I can't believe these were almost 3 years ago wow. It's kinda nostalgic to look back on. 

Song OTD

Today's song is Comedy by Misa! This song is so nice and upbeat and catchy. I wish Misa had more than 2 songs cause I love both of them😭😭😭I like Misa's lyricism in both too. I want to hear people talk about her music I need more of this vibe!!!! MISA PLEASE MAKE MORE MUSIC IM BEGGING πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ˜«πŸ˜«

Yoko again

 I was curious so I edited my Yoko fanart with short hair. Why does it remind me of The Queen's Gambit πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­

Also edited a real Yoko drawing just to see more. Long hair def suits her better and makes her look richer 

Song OTD

We'reeee back!!! Today's song is Red Sun by Seraphine Noir and Ash Lee!

Yoko fanart!

 I can't believe I was messing around with sketching a rich-looking girl and realized it reminded me of Yoko somehow so I ended up making this. It was really fun tho I did a completely different method than I usually do for drawing/rendering/coloring. Also did diff stuff for emotions omg there were so many possible combos, but I'll only post the neutral face and one with everything on it :) Feel like I've drawn Yoko so many times now wow. 

Update I changed the art a little: 

Does this make sense

Anj takes place from when Joe was 15-21ish right. I've always wondered, how come all the kids didn't grow or change at all? Cuz like for example Sachi is about 6 in the beginning, then at the end she'd be 12ish. But! They didn't get taller or change hair, clothes, nothing πŸ˜­ The only indication they ever grew that I remember was Joe saying the kids got heavier in the anime when he would play with them. Man I really miss seeing all the kids and Joe play together though. It was so wholesome and cute. One of the few times Joe was nice.

random image that has nothing to do with this post

Song OTD

 

Today's song is You by Vietra! The opening notes are so nice oh my goursh. This is such a wistful, dreamy, and nostalgic (of childhood maybe) song. It kinda sounds like how i've been feeling lately. Happy and sad at the same time. Ugh I love songs that sound bittersweet so much!! No words... this is just such a beautiful song. It also feels winter-y so it fits for this season :)

Thinking about dropping Innocent......

 I kinda regret reading it LOL

Hyperbole and a Half

Hyperbole and a Half

I happened to chance upon this absolutely delightful blog today during school and omg. It's really a treat. The stories are so funny and entertaining, thank you Allie for curing my school boredom πŸ™ I love how the author draws herself like a gremlin creature, love the "bad" artstyle especially how she draws simple dog lol. This is also the most popular blog I've seen thus far wow. I wish Allie still posted πŸ˜­ her last thing is from 2020


Started Innocent......

 I've only read chapters 1 and 2 so far but. This manga is already crazy. Starting off with torture okay. Those panels were insane. This poor boy doesn't want to execute people mann leave him alone! He's 14!😭Idk what I expected but this def wasn't it. Looking forward to how it progresses though .. also the art is very beautiful and expressive. The backgrounds looked soo realistic omg


Song OTD

 

Today's song is Tick-Tack by ILLIP! MV was pretty cool but everyone's skin looked abnormally smooth I'm ngl. I liked some of the effects and backgrounds, it was pretty ^^ Tick-tack, ti-tack, tick-tack-ta, λ˜‘λ”± I can't get over this omg 

Monday, December 9, 2024

yay reading!

 omgg i have so many books on my list rn i have so many things i wanna read, wish i had time to binge read them all! cant wait to get through them!! i love reading πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜


Song OTD

Today's song is ζ„θ­˜ (Consciously) by Sheena Ringo x Saito Neko. I think this song sounds very interesting. Tried to look at the English lyrics and it's a little bit confusing (each translation is different). I guess the nuances or structure of it is hard to translate? Sheena is really popular for her uniqueness and creativity in lyrics/music though. Maybe I'll listen to the full album later. She's one of the most popular female Japanese artist in Japan. 

Also putting this article about Sheena here to finish reading later because it seems interesting: The Genius of Sheena Ringo | Red Bull Music Academy Daily

i wanna re-read anj so bad

 suddenly got the most desperate yearning urge to reread anj again. i want to read it slowly and savour it more than when i first read it. take screenshots of my favorite panels, discover new things i missed the first time, create a more in-depth analysis of this amazing manga. idk why but thinking about reading anj again makes me feel insane. i miss you joe, rikiishi, carlos, yoko, danpei, nishi, noriko, sachi and the kids, kim, everyone!

i also want to rewatch the anime but prob later. i think maybe ill read the manga again in 2025 around the same time i read it before. maybe it can be a yearly thing idk. im just so obsessed with anj teehee

Song OTD

Today's song is DIS-MOI QUELQUE CHOSE AVANT DE DORMIR (tell me something before sleeping) by Kahimi Karie! This song is soo refreshing and LIGHT it feels like a palette cleanser compared to some of the other "heavier" songs I listen to. It just feels so diaphanous, in the best way possible. Think I really needed this song. Wish it was more popular

IT'S DECEMBER! Today's song is Last Christmas by Wham! This song is so nostalgic to me, I love it. It reminds me of all the times I went ice skating with my best friends. I remember this song would play on the speakers in the fancy looking reception hall or whatever lol. Anyways, it's not Christmas/December without listening to this song! 10/10 ♪

Innocent (Rouge)

 Guess who's starting a new manga again ahaga! Sorry Orpheus no Mado and Veil but I'll finish you another day.. someday.... I've been wanting to read this for a little bit tho. Here's the synopsis for Innocent: Innocent's story follows the Sanson family of executioners in France before the French Revolution, and centers around siblings Charles-Henri Sanson and Marie-Joseph Sanson. 

And for the sequel, Innocent Rouge: The eve of the French Revolution, 1772— The eldest brother of the Sanson family, Charles-Henri, has grown as an executioner, while his sister, Marie-Joseph, has been living freely in Versailles. But one day, Marie-Joseph's first love, a man named Alain, is killed by aristocrats...! This history of innocents plunges into the arc of the crimson revolution, Rouge—!!

The art looks good and I'm interested to see how the story might unfold. I didn't know Innocent Rouge was the sequel until just now so oops. Guess I'll have to read Innocent first then. I wonder if this was inspired by RoV in any way?

Here's Lady Oscar fanart made by Sakamoto Shinichi :) LO Slaying so hard fr! The detail in the clothing is insane. Anyways I hope this manga will be good!!! I don't wanna abandon another one 

bhughhjghh

 bro my ankles are so sore and i worked out for almost 2 hours today and it made the pain so much worse πŸ˜­it hurts to walk

Song OTD

 Whoops I completely forgot to post anything yesterday cuz I was so busy. Anyway here's today's song: Sukiyaki by Kyu Sakamoto.

It was actually called δΈŠγ‚’向いて歩こう originally and was released in 1961. It was a #1 in Japan. And it spent 3(!) weeks at the top of American Billboard charts in June 1963. It's the only song made by a Japanese artist (+no English lyrics) to hit #1 in the US. I just think it's amazing how popular and significant this song was not only in Japan, but in other countries as well (like Mexio, Australia, Canada, etc.), esp when most wouldn't be able to understand anything in the song. Apparently the song was inspired by Anpo protests. Also Kyu, the artist, unfortunately died in one of the worst aircraft disasters in history at only 43 (Japan Airlines Flight 123 crash of 1985). Despite the tragedy surrounding this song I like hearing the stories of people who know and adore it for a number of different, personal reasons. It's amazing how music can transcend time, culture, language, and connect to anybody
