Chuuya’s so funny because he literally shows up to do the bare minimum (unless Dazai is involved).
Like mfkr, you’re the strongest person in the world, what do you mean “oh no! he sliced through the helicopter blades! What are we going to do?!”
Your power is near limitless. Take your pick of defensive techniques. Throw him to space. Grind him to dust. Carry the helicopter away???
Why are you making people jump out of planes and sacrifice their lives when you can juggle the opps until their brains are mush?
He’s like “Mori said let them on the helicopter. I did my part.”
“Oh no; that kid and that guy from that place that Dazai occasionally volunteers at are strapped to bombs?” … “Well it’s my day off so more power to them.” ✌🏼
I should also profess my love of another detective with a cool style, Tendo Saiga:
From Disaster Detective Saiga. Another good game like Paranormasight, that only has a few flaws that Paranormasight doesn’t. (Yes he’s single.)
Detective Saiga however is a straight forward VN VS Paranormasight’s more detective-y things.
It was the dawn of the Third Wave of anime fandom. It was the age of rental anime at Blockbuster Video. It was the time of USEnet discussion groups, particularly rec.arts.anime.
These were the days before dial-up internet, before streaming, before Blu-Ray and DVDs. Those few licenses that made it to the US shores did so in the form of subbed or dubbed VHS tapes, perhaps the occasional Laserdisc. There were those who also provided fan-subtitled anime for those series that hadn’t made it to the US.
Anime fanfiction was mostly Ranma 1/2. There were others, mostly of the older titles such as Kimagure Orange Road, Bubblegum Crisis and some lost to memory.
After my first, godawful Ranma 1/2 story (which had the trifecta of modern sins--a blatant self-insert, terrible writing and being written in script format), I got better. It’s easier to get better when you’ve started from the very bottom.
The idea of anime characters and regular people interacting wasn’t a new one. There was a series where the characters were in a hospital and they hated “animes” as they called them. Then there was “Who Framed Vampire Princess Miyu,” which took a different tactic of having anime characters be just actors.
The latter was my inspiration for Anime Detective. The premise: Our intrepid hero, the somewhat grumpy, not so hard-boiled detective is a policeman who has to maintain good relations between Animates (anime characters) and regular people. Fortunately, he’s well-connected, if not always well-liked. He also has access to a one-ton hammer in a dimensional pocket.
After the first story, he gains a partner: The very capable, very lecherous Ryo Saeba, the City Hunter. He also gets help from a cute redheaded hacker, Nene Romanova, from Bubblegum Crisis.
As you can imagine, these are not deep mystery stories. They do contain some commentary and humor--most likely a shot at whatever was bugging me at the time.
I’ve written eight stories for Detective Andrew Mays. Just don’t call him “Andy Mays.” He hates that.
Anyway, the stories can be found here:

I actually have three more rough drafts. The final chapter was written for Nanowrimo this year.
So, if anyone is willing to engage in a little fanfiction archaeology and can wade through ‘90′s anime references, feel free to take a look.

P.S., I have put some cameos of colleagues in my stories. I’d be very surprised if you could pick them out, though.
The short part i animated on this year's movie ! 🌊⚽💥
(still can't believe i got to work on the series that made me fall in love with drawing, and alongside my favourite animator (who did the shots following these). It was super fun to work on Conan together and he gave me a lot of cool tips!!)
Eclipse have had enough of Vigilante!Y\N's disregard.
It's gonna be their final talk.

Here's my little passion project based on Naff's Sleuth Jesters :) I'm still not quite happy with it but I really wanted to finish animatic before Christmas

Kudos to @crystalitar who originally recommended this song to Naff.
Also much love to @pure-plum who's art I've been shamelessly using as reference :)
It would be rude, he figured, to throw up at the sight of the monster who had asked for permission to undress in front of him.
My companion @dghdabigbang art for @osmundpriestt’s fic that’s the way you showed me that i wasn’t quite alone, loved working on this with them it was soooo fun and I definitely did not get carried away on my end none whatsoever.
Seeing how 'Wish' is supposed to be a celebration of a century of Disney that's chock full of homages and nods to their past films, no matter what happens in the film, there's really only one suitable end for King Magnifico:
