Of Phillip with a cardinal
Belos calling Hunter his nephew (aka son of his brother)
“Big Plans”
Grimwalker literally meaning “the dead walking”
Wild magic “took” Belos’ family
Hunter is definitely a clone, but not of Belos, methinks…
This is so funny what
100% EXCITED!!! (LOUD)
Paint-on-glass animation is a technique for making animated films by manipulating slow-drying oil-paints on sheets of glass as the animator gradually alters the shapes they create, and during this process, a camera records each finished ‘frame’.
When adapting ONE’s Mob Psycho 100, director Yuzuru Tachikawa wanted to adapt the source material in fantastic ways. And so, by combining the talents of a skilled staff, an anime with an incredible mix of animation techniques was born.
Mob Psycho’s ending, and a good portion of the paranormal scenes are a complex product of paint-on-glass animation, done by Miyo Sato, a Tokyo University of Arts graduate and animator who has had her work nominated for multiple international animation awards.
I love how mob psycho 100 has absolutely zero time for that your 'i love violence twisted fucking cyclepath' types, your 'i want to destroy everything because i CAN' type villains, and just stawartly refuses to portray them as mysterious or compelling as other shounen action anime does, refusing to present it as anything but dumb and pathetic and quite frankly, extremely childish. like they are called out quite explicitly by its protagonists, by reigen in s1 and then mob in s2 (testament to mob's character growth tbh that he can do this by s2) for never maturing past the logic of middle schooler. like the central philospphy of the show is that to grow as people you have to recognise the worth and value of others & your bonds with them, and for that reason so many of the antagonists come across as stunted children and immature adults. like even the antagonists that quickly heel turn towards joining the main cast (e.g. teru, dimple to some extent) have these most ridiculous god complexes that are defeated partially by being revealed as at core as ridiculous and are thus ridiculed to learn a degree of humility (dimple becomes a little snot gremlin spirit, teru has his hair journehy) before they can grow. often this ridicule is achieved by a character saying 'why the fuck are you fighting a middle schooler. you're a grown adult. this is ridiculous loser behaviour' but sometimes it's way more visible, e.g. the 7th division leader getting their mask pulled off to reveal an aged adult (far older than the kid we expected, from their voice) who then has a literal *tantrum* about how the world shoild be theirs, it's mine it's mine it's mine, where the discrepancy between their age and behaviour is striking. like this egoistic mindset is ultimately a child's mindset - little children are self-centred, still see the world in terms of 'me me me', and while we allow little children this to a degree because they're still learning about the world, in an adult it is truly just pathetic. they are losers! and it's not afraid of saying it!!
what's interesting is that mob psycho actually adds nuance to this perspective outlined in season 1 during the mogami arc where mob gets to experience a version of life where he is isolated, and lonely, and has no one to turn to, and there is sympathy for why middle schoolers might develop a certain misanthrophic outlook where they want to see the whole world burn, to resort to violence and to prioritise selfish desires - but it is still ultimately *wrong*, and mob just has to be reminded of the existence of kindness to believe so. that experience if anything allows mob to develop his compassion for others and confidence in his convinctions (rather than repeating reigen's teachings - good teachings, mind - about not using powers against others as he did in s1) than before, and he tries to grow from that painful experience, eventually reaching a level where the villains by the end of s2 appear less emotionally mature and grounded then the teenage protagonist. they're still pathetic, but it's less a site of ridicule and more a site of pity now, a shift from comedy to drama.
anyway. it's philosophy towards villains and refusal to like, let them be cool because they like hurting people (wtf) or want to destroy the world (wtf) for some unhinged reason and just calls them out for being total losers is SO refreshing in a genre which likes to go 'oooh look at my fucked up creepy antagonist who likes pain'. it's a breath of fresh air.

happy trans day! ok!
OH YA KNOW!!

I like thinking Reigen takes in Teru post-canon…. and I also see them both as trans, and I just like the idea of Reigen being a supportive dad, lol. So here’s a pretty self-indulgent comic.
yup

Pages 19-25

Happy Trans Day of Visibility 2021! This year, we celebrate Trans Week of Action and work against dangerous transphobic legislation progressing all over the U.S.
I’d like to thank my friend Avistew Teague for translating this!
I found a thread and decided… Hm… Maybe a need a little bit of sin afterall…
those images with a trans person where a “girl” looks into the mirror and sees a “boy” are so inaccurate and don’t represent my trans experience at all. when i look into the mirror i see dumbledore congratulating me. ive won the house cup.
Dysphoria
Throwback to all these Jesus comics I drew in 2012…
some people on insta said i should post my workout routine since i mentioned how im so happy with the results, so here’s my little workout guide for my fellow trans folk! I focused on getting a more masculine body because obviously that’s what I want. I’m so happy with the results, this workout is saving my fucking life!!!! I can’t get on T soon so this has really been keeping my dysphoria in check. I barely get body dysphoria, i love how my clothes looks on me, i love feeling confident for once in my life!!! HOWEVER Don’t go overboard with working out my friends. Do not work out in a binder, you MUST take days off to let your muscles heal, and you CAN’T starve yourself! Fitness is all about health and diet! Take care of yourself. This is also MY workout routine, you may not get the same results as I have! Every body is different.
EDIT: ahh I really didn’t expect this thing to blow up….A few people have brought it to my attention that some of the nutrition here could be wrong/not work for everyone. I apologize if I caused any harm. I think I stressed enough that you shouldn’t starve yourself to lose weight. That’s very dangerous, and if you’re prone to such habits I suggest don’t count calories, etc, and just make sure your diet is very nutritious. I just provided a way to lose weight that my doctor told me about. You don’t need to lose weight if you don’t want to. Obviously if you’re already thin there’s no need to make a goal to lose weight; that’s dangerous. Also, some of this may or may not be helpful depending on your body type. I was underweight before working out so I have no idea how it would affect someone overweight! Please don’t hold this post to such a high standard; this was just my own routine and things I do to stay in shape, I obviously can’t cater to everyone. I literally didn’t expect this post to blow up like it did, this was literally just for a few people. Sorry for any harm it caused!
Hey Matteo do you have any tips on how to dress as a trans man? I don’t... really know what to wear and look nice without features I would rather not show off being more easily seen if that makes sense
I’ve actually been working on a wardrobe guide a while back, but this made me remember to finish it, so here it is! All of this is stuff I’ve learned from experience and are my preferences, but I hope you can get something out of it.
a lesson on nonbinary individuals and why we feel the way we do about numerous basic things, such as the mere fact of our existence and our pronouns.
