Note

Isn't Blaze a girl? Her and Sonic would be heteroerotic rivalry or is it just a general vibe they give off

homoerotic shonen rivalry is more of a ~Vibe~ than a strict definition

also the person who submitted them called them "straight yaoi" and I thought that was so funny I didn't notice they weren't gay for about ten minutes

so yeah they stay in

#asks #not polls #mod goose #a solid 20% of my decision making was based off how memorable the submissions I wasn't familiar with were #so if you put in something especially long or funny your guys were more likely to get in #this might not be the best practice but this is a tumblr poll and not politics so

theres other cats besides jellie, you know.

Yes, I know. I like Jellie though, and I'm the admin here, so nothing about that is changing.

But besides Jellie, just in the past week I have also posted/reblogged photos of: Phil and Kristin's neighbor's cat Gus, Eret and Elaina's cat Goose, Bizly's cat Callisto, Patches, Niki's cats Mai and Zuko, Shubble's cat Starlord, Maui and Pearl, Martyn's cats Kiki and Pascal, and Norman. That is 12 other cats besides Jellie.

One reason there has been a lot of Jellie today is because it is hermit-a-day May and yesterday was pet day, so there's been a lot of fanart of hermit cats in general. Jellie is in a lot of those posts but I just reblogged the cat-related ones I saw. I like reblogging fanart because I have a large following and it gives artists a big boost on their work. Jellie has also popped up a lot recently because she was the winner of the catfight poll and I reblogged most of those rounds.

If there is a cat you would like to see, please be aware that I have always had submissions enabled for this blog, and photos can be attached to asks. You can also make a request to see a cat too, although the timeline on me answering those is questionable at best because a lot get lost in my ask box.

Welcome one and all to the North American Duck (and Goose and Swan) Poll! The first round of polls will go up March 7th at 10 am PST.

Firstly, I want to give a huge shoutout to @goverment-agency-bracket for creating such an easy to follow bracket for their own polls and emphasizing the importance of properly seeding one’s brackets. I was heavily inspired by the way they set their brackets up, and I have taken great care to seed these brackets in the way I thought best.

Below are brackets A and B. The winner of bracket A will face the winner of bracket B in the final.

In order to allow time for people to notice the polls, the first round will be open for a week, while all following rounds will only be open for a day each.

The 48 species of waterfowl in this tournament represent all native North American species in the order Anseriformes, as given in the National Geographic Field Guide to the Birds of North America. For information on seeding, please refer to this post which explains my methodology and gives the seed position of every species.

All photos used will either be photos I have taken myself or photos licensed under Creative Commons licenses. Links to original photo sources will be provided in this post, which will be updated as new photos are added.

We've had 16 years of our best girl! She's brought the world, and this community, together with the wonderful songs created using her. There's been a lot of amazing melodies brought to us with the help of Miku, so let's see what you guys' favorites were!

~~~

2007

After fighting neck and neck all day, Melt by ryo (22.9%) won out against Miracle Paint by OSTER project! (niconico link)

~~~

2008

There were several in first place throughout the day, but in the end, the winner was Love is War by... well, also ryo (18.8%), who also took second place with World is Mine! (niconico link)

~~~

2009

wowaka's first entry and first win with Two-Faced Lovers (39.6%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2010

With a landslide second victory, Rolling Girl by wowaka (55.7%) takes the 2010 slot! (youtube link)

~~~

2011

The third victory in a row, wowaka takes 2011 with Unhappy Refrain (22.9%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2012

Pinocchio-P takes the win with his first entry, Common World Domination (35.1%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2013

The 2013 slot is taken by Aishite Aishite Aishite by kikuo (23.9%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2014

Patchwork Staccato by toa was close all day, but didn't manage to overtake Hibikase by Giga (24.6%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2015

Keeping the lead all day, Alien Alien by NayutalieN (31.4%) wins the 2015 poll! (youtube link)

~~~

2016

With a heavy lead, Ghost Rule by DECO*27 (30.4%) takes 2016! (youtube link)

~~~

2017

wowaka's brief comeback to the vocaloid community brings him another win with Unknown Mother Goose (33.1%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2018

Mikito-P snags a win with Ghost Girl (Shoujo Rei) (26.4%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2019

With more a third of the total votes, syudou takes 2019 with Bitter Choco Decoration (36.6%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2020

In an unprecedented twist... 2020 saw a 3-way tie! With 15.8% of the votes each, Digital Girl by Kira, Darling Dance by Kairiki bear, and Because You're Here by PinocchioP all take the win, with Jackpot Sad Girl by syudou just one vote behind! (Digital Girl youtube link) (Darling Dance youtube link) (Because You're Here youtube link)

~~~

2021

PinocchioP songs duked it out, with Non-Breath Oblige and God-ish neck and neck all day (as well as Undercover by DECO*27), but in the end Non-Breath Oblige (23.9%) was the winner! (youtube link)

~~~

2022

PinocchioP takes his third win in a row with a quarter of the votes on Reincarnation Apple (25%)! (youtube link)

~~~

2023

And in our last poll, for the current year, DECO*27 and PinocchioP both snag another win with (Not) a Devil (33%)! A fitting win, I'd say, being such a wonderful showcase of how different producers use Miku in different ways! (youtube link)

~~~

Some other information and stats:

(If I counted correctly) PinocchioP received the most total unique song submissions at 15, with DECO*27 right behind at 13!

wowaka's Rolling Girl received the most total submissions!

PinocchioP received the most wins at 5 - unsurprisingly when you consider that PinocchioP won the producer poll a few months ago!

DECO*27's Ghost Rule received the most total votes on any poll! (30.1% of 184 votes = 56 votes)

Propaganda by Crusher was the first non-Japanese song to get submitted. Digital Girl was the only non-Japanese song to receive a win

Annnd... if anyone's curious, my votes were:

Miracle Paint by OSTER project

Love is War by ryo

Romeo and Cinderella by doriko

Rolling Girl by wowaka

Senbonzakura by WhiteFlame

This is the Happiness and Peace of Mind Committee by Utata-P

Self-Inflicted Achromatic by nekobolo (it was so hard choosing between that and Fakery Tale)

Sea Lily Deep Sea Tale by n-buna (also very difficult choosing for that year)

My R by Kurage-P

Ghost Rule by DECO*27

Hibana by DECO*27 (also a difficult year to pick)

Garando by Picon

Psychogram by DECO*27 (I really like deco niina-san, okay)

Cynical Night Plan by Ayase (another difficult year)

God-ish by PinocchioP

Hollow (Utsuru o Aogu) by Choisauce (which I thought would receive more votes....)

(Not) a Devil by DECO*27 and PinocchioP

I hope you all enjoyed, and once again, Happy Birthday to our girl!

#happy birthday miku #vocaloid #hatsune miku #mod speaks #ryo #wowaka #pinocchiop #kikuo #giga #nayutalien #deco*27 #mikito-p #syudou #kairiki bear #kira

Hello magical friends~☆

While the date poll continues, I'm working on some things behind the scenes!

While I was working on the prompt list, I was thinking about hosting a small competition of sorts for any outfits people make for their characters, where there will be polls for "Best Dressed"

The only prize really would just be bragging rights, but I thought it would be something fun to include and would be 100% optional for participation

Sooo

I'm limiting the poll to these four, because they're all fairly traditional fantasy retellings that often serve as a reader's first introduction to retellings. They're all books that can top someone's personal list, and I suspect the answer says a lot about your approach to retellings.

Best Underrated Anime Group E Round 3: #E3 vs #E1

#E3: Sending us penguins will NOT fix our terminally ill sister, but thanks anyways.

#E1: Forcefully mixing the old and the new. Hilarity and disaster ensues.

Details and poll under the cut!

*Text in green indicates that something has been changed.

#E3: Mawaru Penguindrum

youtube

Summary:

For the Takakura family, destiny is an ever-spinning wheel, pointing passionately in their direction with equal tides of joy and sorrow before ticking on to the next wishmaker. With their parents gone, twin brothers Kanba and Shouma live alone with their beloved little sister Himari, whose poor health cannot decline any further.

On the day Himari is given permission to temporarily leave the hospital, her brothers take her out to the aquarium to celebrate, where the family's supposed fate is brought forth with her sudden collapse. However, when Himari is inexplicably revived by a penguin hat from the aquarium's souvenir shop, the hand of fate continues to tick faithfully forward.

With her miraculous recovery, though, comes a cost: there is a new entity within her body, whose condition for keeping her fate at bay sends the boys on a wild goose chase for the mysterious "Penguin Drum." In their search, the boys will have to follow the threads of fate leading from their own shocking past and into the lives of other wishmakers vying for the Penguin Drum, all hoping to land upon their chosen destiny.

Propaganda:

Do you like weird artsy stuff? Do you love magical girls? How about weird, messed up character dynamics? Then boy oh boy, Mawaru Penguindrum is the show for you! The show starts out funny enough, but will quickly spiral into an intense and intricate plot, involving fate, the mafia, magical destiny-rewriting spells, and penguins. Which yes, before you ask, the funny penguins are in fact plot relevant.

Penguindrum isn’t really a show about all that stuff though, even though it is. It’s a very symbolic story, about living under the crushing heel of capitalism, and the quiet poison of the societally expected nuclear family dynamic. I could write an essay on each and every single one of the characters, as they’re all given a lot of depth and time to grow. Every character has their own baggage that, one way or another, ties back to someone else. Everyone in this show is connected in some way shape or form, and that’s really highlighted when everything starts to fall apart. Be warned: this show is NOT a light watch! If you’re the type of person who gets really into deciphering symbolism and creating your own meaning from pieces of media, then this show is for you!

Trigger Warnings: Child Abuse, Domestic Abuse, Emotional Abuse, Flashing Lights/Flickering Images, Gender Identity/Sexuality Discrimination, Guns, Incest, Kidnapping, Nudity, Pedophilia, Rape/Non-Con, Smoking, Suicide, Bomb Threats/Attempts and Terrorisim

It’s a very major plot point. This show is HEAVILY based off the 95 Tokyo Sarin Gas Attacks, so if content like that is triggering to you, tread lightly.

#E1: Are You Ok (You Yao)

Summary:

People from the modern world transmigrating into the ancient Chinese fantasy world has become a common and everyday occurrence that the royal court in the latter has decided to moderate them. If you’re a transmigrator, you must report your existence to Lou Zhu, the master of Best Tower. Once you pass his test and prove that you are indeed a modern person, you can then be assigned to work in different areas of the government and be given a high salary.

Because of this promised benefit, many impostors have showed up before Lou Zhu. And one day, Zuo Yunqi takes this test as well. Is he an impostor, or is he an actual modern person?

But some transmigrators also choose to hide their existence out of distrust in the government. Where are they? And with their advanced knowledge on science and technology, what are they planning in the dark?

Elsewhere, other transmigrators find themselves in all sorts of situations—an art student is detained and forced to come up with a recipe for a poisonous meal, while another is stuck sharing a body with the original soul and fighting for its control. Meanwhile, unrest rises in the Jianghu and a storm brews in the palace. Can our transmigrators’ modern knowledge save the day? Or will their lack of understanding in the current world lead to their downfall?

Propaganda:

Often in transmigration stories, the locals are portrayed as “backward” and “ignorant” to make the modern characters seem intelligent and progressive. The latter are then hailed as geniuses or pioneers, but in You Yao this isn’t the case.

You Yao deconstructs the transmigration genre and explores its possibilities. The system that moderates the transmigrators really puts them in their place and curbs their arrogance. And when in Rome, do as the Romans do. No matter how “smart” they may be, they are still subjects of the Emperor.

Besides, modern knowledge doesn’t always prove to be useful. An educated man like Lou Zhu is considered illiterate because he cannot read Traditional Chinese. His assistant has to first translate them into Simplified 😂

Moreover, this world they’re in has elements of wuxia (martial arts with superpowers). How can a modern person who grew up in a safe environment protect oneself in such a setting? They can only ask the locals to protect them.

So, transmigrators are not necessarily superior to the locals—which I like because it lets us look at the locals’ strengths and appreciate them as well.

You Yao features an ensemble cast, by the way, and all of them, both locals and transmigrators, are endearing. There are also several canon BL couples, with each pair marking the different sub-plots of the show. Just don’t expect any explicit gay confirmation because it’s limited by Chinese censorship, after all. But even then, it managed to be as fruity as it could be (the S1 ED is literally an angsty love song about the second gay pairing).

In regard to setting, it’s a genius mix of ancient Chinese fantasy and modern technology. Best Tower looks like a traditional Chinese pagoda on the outside, but on the inside it’s like a mall, complete with different entertainment venues and even a milk tea shop! It even has an “elevator,” but since electricity hasn’t been invented yet, it’s just powered by different men (in fancy uniforms) on bicycles.

You Yao is really creative in presenting what could happen when you forcefully mix the old and the new. This allows a lot of hilarious situations, but it also highlights the dichotomy of tradition and modernity, making viewers question which changes are actually good and bad.

Can the Emperor really be that benevolent when plenty of people with knowledge beyond his keep popping up? And how can all transmigrators be content in following this world’s backward laws? What happens when one side tries to dominate and eradicate the other?

You Yao may give off that silly sitcom vibe, but it’s actually so much more than that. I don’t wanna spoil anything, so all I can say is that it’s gonna make you laugh a lot, and once your guard is lowered it’s gonna sucker-punch you in the gut. Vote You Yao.

Trigger warnings: Guns, kidnapping, and imprisonment. Nothing too dark, though.

When reblogging and adding your own propaganda, please tag me @best-underrated-anime so that I’ll be sure to see it.

If you want to criticize one of the shows above to give the one you’re rooting for an advantage, then do so constructively. I do not tolerate groundless hate or slander on this blog. If I catch you doing such a thing in the notes, be it in the tags or reblogs, I will block you.

Alrighty and HERE ARE OUR CONTENDERS!!!

Tag for the polls: #bird battle

DISCLAIMER - I wrote the round one blurbs when I was very sick and half awake, so if you see any mistakes PLEASE TELL ME! Nicely, obviously, but I want to make sure they sound good for round 2. Thank you!

I know there’s a lot of them, but man there’s SO MANY GOOD BIRDS! There were a few times where people didn’t put what specific subspecies for some birds, so sometimes I’d have to choose one. I tried to choose one that represents that bird the best!

I don’t know when the polls will begin, I’m doing some research on the birds so that people can read about them before they vote.

If one of your favs didn’t make it in, don’t worry they’re a winner in my and your heart.

If you are wondering where the Pigeon (Rock Dove) is, THEY ARE THE FINAL CHAMPION! At the end of this bracket, the winner will face off against the mightily popular Rock Dove! Will they be able to beat such a tough challenger? We will see…

Also, a note on how I set this bracket up: I put all the birds in a numbered list and then used a number generator. I think the matchups we got were really interesting.

wip wednesday friday

tagged by lovelies @wannab-urs @ezrasbirdie and @schnarfer

I'm having really bad adhd with my wips. I feel like I start 3 new ones every week. I've love a little encouragement to finish one.

Step one: Post snippets of the fics you're working on (can be a summary if there's no snippet)

Fame Whore (Dieter Bravo x f!reader) - a fic inspired by Pedro's SAG interviews

You haven’t seen Dieter in a while, not since he shot to stardom. It seemed like one day he was doing the same little parts you’re taking— pilots that never go to series, supporting roles in schlocky action movies— and the next he was the internet’s boyfriend. It wasn’t just roles. He was everywhere. Talk shows, Super Bowl commercials, Cliff Beasts 5 merchandise tie ins. Beyonce’s internet is inundated with memes from his horny little fans. I watch Narcotics for the plot. The plot being a topless photo of Dieter as his character– the brooding, loose canon Detective Enrico Suarez. You can’t turn around without seeing that handsome face you absolutely despise.

Everybody in Hollywood has some charming anecdote about Dieter Bravo. If only they knew what he was really like.

Untitled Regency!Joel Miller au (Regency!Joel x f!reader)

Joel watches the girls as they walk through the village. two neat columns of single file. They travel with poise, following behind you like a mother goose.

He’s done this for years, searching their faces for any familiarity. One of these girls is his daughter, which one he does not know and neither does she. He’s never met her. The scandal of her birth made anonymity the best choice nearly sixteen years ago. But Joel wishes it could have been different.

He chose the school because it was close to home. But, of course, he didn’t know any others. Joel wasn’t well educated himself being a common tradesman. When he wrote to his brother with the militia, Corporal Miller always teased him for the brevity of his letters. Despite that, he trusted that you would see that his daughter would not be stymied by her inferior birth.

Step two: put them in a poll and let people vote on which one you should work on

Step three: Every vote is one minute you put on a timer to work on that fic (ex. 15 votes = 15 minutes of writing)

Also feel free to ask about these or the 500 other wips in my brain. Or just say hi. My ask box is always open.

Happy Tuesday!!!

I’ve always seen “you’ll always be taken care of” on your poll for Wednesday’s, and the lil blurb you have about it is enough to get me interested!!!

I was wondering if you’d let out a lil teaser about it?

All the love!! No pressure, I just love your writing and I thought I’d try my luck :)

Hi!!! Happy Tuesday to you as well & I thank you so much for this request!!!! It’s actually one of the fics I’ve been working on since I joined the fandom and it holds a special place in my heart. I have a teensy soft spot for Goosemav bc I love friends to lovers 😭 and I keep going back to this fic and never finishing it, but I’m glad someone is taking an interest in it!!!

Goose follows behind Maverick as the man goes through the motions of his day. He's not eating, but at least he's sleeping, albeit poorly. He watches as Mav wakes up from nightmares, twisting in the bedsheets and calling out for him. He always wakes with a start, in a cold sweat, before he's crying and shaking with grief. Goose tries to soothe him, wrapping his ghostly body around the smaller man, willing him to calm down and settle right back into a fitful sleep.

Maverick is on the edge of quitting, of giving up his wings. It makes Goose's heart ache as depression tries to swallow his best friend whole. He watches as people stare at Mav with pity when he walks through the halls of TOPGUN — watches them avoid his name in fear of upsetting Maverick more.

Goose can't handle it anymore as Maverick makes his way into the locker room, effectively cleaning out his locker with Ice standing across from him, silently avoiding the other man. He's standing close to Ice in an instant, leaning in to speak into his ear, hoping what he says makes it through the sound barrier between him and the living.

"Talk to him," he pleads. "Say anything. Maverick needs someone to care. He's going to quit the one thing he loves to do — the one thing that makes him Maverick."

Ice looks up, eyebrows furrowing and head turning from side to side, searching. Goose feels victorious. Ice had heard him.

"Show him you care."

Because Goose had seen the looks Ice had shot toward Mav. The longing gazes filled with burning want. Enough to make Goose seethe with jealousy when he was alive, but now all he cares about is making his pilot smile again.
