I wanted to include cultural elements in my animatic; so here Mykola’s wearing a Vyshyvanka, surrounded by sunflowers which are considered the national flower of Ukraine🌻🇺🇦
Galran Fyodor and Altean Nikolai because what else am I supposed to do with my life
Yes you are seeing Keith Kogane and Nikolai Gogol in the same room You’re not the one losing your mind I am
Anyway my brain loves doing that shit where you scrape together even the most surface level tiniest similarities between two things that are as unrelated as something can be so,, take this and suffer with me
we need to talk abt noritoshi kamo more and no i don’t mean kenjaku btw!
his character is SO fascinating and he’s literally so doomed by the narrative and i wanna kiss him so hard bc of it!!! :3
from the time his mother decided it’d be silly to name her son after the most notoriously evil sorcerer in history all the way up until kenjaku basically saying he’s useless and would be a horrible clan head, this dude has NOT had a good time 😭😭😭
bc imagine your entire life trying to be this PERFECT perfect heir. your mother literally left you because she believed you’d thrive more without her and you decide to be this perfect heir for HER. and come to find out you were never really meant to be the clan head .
do u know how SICK that is??? especially considering he never knew who he was named after and how much of a stain the previous noritoshi kamo left on not just the kamo clan, but the whole damn sorcerer world…
Something like this would be so colossally helpful. I'm sick and tired of trying to research specific clothing from any given culture and being met with either racist stereotypical costumes worn by yt people or ai generated garbage nonsense, and trying to be hyper specific with searches yields fuck all. Like I generally just cannot trust the legitimacy of most search results at this point. It's extremely frustrating. If there are good resources for this then they're buried deep under all the other bullshit, and idk where to start looking.
