"this is it. the last image i want to see."
the way mork tries to hold it together, but his lips end up trembling. and when day is so gently holding his face, tracing over his lips, he finally breaks down. he is the one crying, the one mourning day's sight. but day? day is smiling, keeping his eyes on mork's face until everything fades away.
the very last thing he'll ever see is the man he loves. and while it's bittersweet, it makes him happy. because mork is day's last twilight. he'd happily turn to stone and stare at him forever.

“tumblr changed this man” no. neil gaiman has been weird AT LEAST since he started publishing in the 80s. we all on tumblr are just all a bunch of weirdos (affectionate) and he just so happens to fit right in with us.

octopath being snubbed for best score is especially surreal like even if it isn't one of those big-time mainline game series that are typically showcased at the awards you absolutely cannot deny the unparalleled genius of yasunori nishiki's compositions. especially with the smooth transitions between the day and night osts in the second game and the individual character themes, the soundtrack perfectly encapsulates the scenic, immersive, and stunning atmospheres the game's world has to offer, as well as the intense emotional beats during each of the travelers' stories, and not to mention the godly boss themes, and it absolutely never fails to deliver. octopath is not just a game but a bona fide work of art in genuinely every aspect and it pains me to see it being overlooked like this. team asano features some of the most gifted developers in the industry and god forbid they deserve more recognition.

i finished love for love's sake. y'all weren't kidding when you said this would make me cry cuz lord, i haven't stopped crying.
i just. fuck bro.
as someone who's very much like myungha from the real world most days, realizing and being reminded that we need others to go on and to be happy is such a strong message to put out.
yeowoon still being able to remember parts of myungha's presence even when he was deleted/died are just. that's how the feeling of a loved one, of someone who's presence truly changed your life when they think it didn't, that's how that love stays. you can't erase that kind of love from and for a person. you can't.
people need other people. people need love. there are others out there who love you so much because you're that presence in their lives that cannot be erased, even if you think you're the problem. no matter how you try to take yourself out of the equation, you belong in someone's life and that person or people belong in yours.
love, friendship, community, even with just a few people, is always enough. you can't change someone else's story but you can help change your own. and people who love you will always want the best for you. people who love you will help change your story, they will help give you a better ending. that's life.
suffering happens and it hurts so much, it hurts so much. but through suffering, you can find happiness again. you can find someone who will help you, even when it feels like you can't do it yourself. love is help. love is reliance. love is so much good for us.
i'm crying so hard still because that really just hits so damn hard. i have depression, i have anxiety, im not suicidal anymore but life has thrown a rough set of circumstances my way. and so many times when i feel lonely, i have to fight to remember that i have a partner who loves me and a family that loves me and friends who love me. i have people who will help write my story, who will help me write the happy ending i deserve. i have love. i am a presence that would be missed. and reminding myself of that through this show means the absolute world to me.
i can't thank the creators of this enough. truly, from the bottom of my fragile heart, this show means the world to me. thank you.

‘so far away, you’re gone / getting far away / too far away, you’re gone / I know I have to know’ and ‘they say life’s a struggle between resistance and submission / I say it’s a struggle against loneliness / if you can’t hold it back it’s okay to cry / you’re already more than enough to be loved’ these lyrics are so beautiful please YOONGI I LOVE YOUUU!!!!

tell me what's worse (losing you now or later?)
Evan "Buck" Buckley/Eddie Diaz | Rated M | Chapters 1/6 Inspired by @killiarious and written for the @911reversebang
Every once in a while, someone's world gets knocked off its axis. For Eddie, that moment was when Buck pressed his lips to his, stealing the very breath out of his lungs. He doesn't think anything else can rock him as hard. When Buck is struck by lightning, life as Eddie knew it comes suddenly crashing down with Eddie left gasping for air in the aftermath. Eddie knows he wants Buck for keeps. He also knows life is rarely so kind to him.

Please, do rant about how chainsaw man is a masterpiece and it's going to have an impact on modern shounen
thank you so much for prompting me to talk about this. i have so much to say about it. im about to write an essay. manga spoilers are a given but here's the warning just in case.
firstly, fujimoto has such a strong grasp of visual storytelling. i know that this seems like a pretty baseline statement for a mangaka but i genuinely think his grasp on it in particular is spectacular. he works so much into his panels and even the placing of the characters in the frame is important.
it's a really obvious element of his work and it's both plot-driven and comedically driven, which makes it all the more compelling. oftentimes in chainsaw man, comedic scenes are indicative of a greater power hierarchy present within interactions (especially with regards to denji and makima).
makima plays a maternal role in the story and is, undoubtedly, a character fujimoto took a lot of care in writing and drawing. she's always in positions of power and almost always the focal point of panels and scenes she's present in. her sexuality as a woman is used as a weapon knowingly and she's presented as both mother, lover, and leader to denji and within the art of the series (which serves to highlight denji's deep-seated need for affection of all forms).
in fact, a lot of her positioning in the series is very maternal. even when she tears pochita from chainsaw man's chest, she is cradling his head as a mother would a babe. her chains come from her womb and diaphragm, often thought to be the location of the solar plexus chakra which dictates personality, ego, identity, personal freedom, choice, and authenticity. which is fitting considering her position as the control devil and her attempt to rob denji of his personhood. (honestly i could go on about makima and motherhood forever. i saw a tiktok about it a little while ago and ended up diving down a rabbit hole of thought).
it's also really interesting to me that denji serves as both comedic relief and a tragic character, as well as being the main protagonist of his story. it's not unheard of, but it is unique and it makes the story stand out within the shonen genre (naruto did something similar but with an entirely different message and theme). it makes denji compelling and incredibly human. 
that trope within itself is nothing new. it's somewhat common. however, what I've noticed about chainsaw man is that denji's comedic relief is almost always indicative of a greater theme. his motivations being purely sexual and romantic are, originally, presented as a comedic aspect of the series meant to introduce you to the type of person denji is. however, after reading the series, it quickly becomes an ominous indication of his ability to be easily manipulated, as well as the extortion of those qualities that lead to his (and makima's) eventual downfall and the climax of the story.
a lot of popular shonen media contains some levels of deeper analysis, but chainsaw man does it in a way in which the plot is actively dependent on that further analysis. i think csm kind of took the shonen genre and introduced a deeper level of thought to it I've only seen in a few other examples (jjk being one of them) and i think that what will come out of it is shonen manga with deeper symbolism and heavier themes.
i think chainsaw man's popularity in particular is gonna end up contributing to a greater shift in shonen and action manga towards more deliberate placement of themes and underlying messages.
that's not to say that other shonen mangas LACK those underlying messages, but i am saying that chainsaw man's popularity is largely OWED to that when it is usually the other way around. and chainsaw man, even in the first week of its anime release, is already HUGELY popular for those reasons.
i think that sometimes there is a belief with popular shonen animanga (and action media in general) that in order for it to be popular, you need these cash-grab scenes and characters. it seems to me that a lot of shonen maintains this idea of serving the palpable and blatantly obvious first and the darker second, whereas chainsaw man absolutely does NOT do that. chainsaw man puts the ugly (and somewhat comedic) aspect of tragedy in your face and then asks you to analyze it to find something even uglier and more meaningful underneath, which is a breath of fresh air in the shonen genre to me.
so all this to say: i think that chainsaw man's popularity is gonna lead to a greater shift in the shonen genre that brings analyzable media and themes to the forefront of what's considered "marketable". im really excited to see the works that come after this and what inspiration they take from it.
i realize that im not saying anything new about chainsaw man. all of these things have probably been said before and in greater detail, but from my perspective (as someone who really values composition in manga panels) this is how i see it. and NONE of this is to say that other shonen genres lack this deep of messaging. chainsaw man is, however, where i have noticed it the most of the shonen i have read.
