Lemme just rant about the Book of Life for a bit
So
I recently watched it in English because we watched it in my Spanish class (I didn't have the privilege of watching it during childhood) and I like it a lot. Some of the reasons I like it are:
Literally everything about Joaquin
The ending and the way the movie ended the love triangle plot. Instead of villainizing the one character, there wasn't anything wrong with Joaquin, María was just more romantically attracted to Manolo. They hardly even fought over her and stayed friends the whole time.
The part of the plot about Manolo refusing to kill a bull, and how that impresses María because of her love for animals
Maria's character design is hilariously absurd and so are a bunch of the other ones
Creep by Radiohead out of absolutely nowhere caught me 100 percent off guard
Manolo erupting from the ground in a pillar of light was absolutely hilarious for no reason

This is something I drew like six months ago and posted on Instagram, but I'm still really proud of it so I'm going to post it here too.
When I drew this I watched the movie (The book of Life) five time in a row (not including the couple of times I watched it prior that day) an drew for 30 hours straight without taking a break. So it's kinda an understatement to say that this is one of my more favorite art pieces I drew!

These two are ABSOLUTE peak character design.
HARD AGREE re character design, but trying to draw these two with any consistency would have me putting my head in a meat grinder

i recently rewatched The Book of Life and I’ve come to the conclusion that love triangles can and should be solved for the most part with polyamory, here are some examples
Chel, Tulio and Miguel as a trouple. Both Miguel and Tulio have shown interest in Chel and I think the first part of the movie where we see them in Spain speak for itself, their chemistry is overall really good I think
Not really a love triangle here but I like both ideas of Redson liking Mk and Mei as romantic partners so I thought Mei and Mk as well as being besties could be each others metamour
And obviously Joaquin, Manolo and Maria as a trouple because they work SO WELL I love their dynamic so so much ❤️❤️
Might add more in the future !!

That one time like a year ago where I awarded them the highest honor I could bestow (Drawing them as the Gravepainters)
Still one of my best, if I say so myself.
