I decided to look through my Google photos, and had a nice long sob. I miss Katsu and Angel so much. 😭

Novel Nuggets - Still Catching Up

So many outstanding reviews to write. Here are just a few more. I was not expecting to love The Blood Trials by N. E. Davenport as much as I did, but holy hell did I. It was my favorite book read in March. In The Blood Trials, Ms. Davenport creates an exciting story that also teaches the dangers of inherent racism. I love Ikenna and her loyalty, as well as her determination to succeed; I…

Dungeon Meshi!!!!!!!! Here's 3D print files for Marcille's staff; it's a pretty basic piece that's easy to print and assemble and designed at a low resolution so you can spend all your time slathering it with texture.

If you want a printed kit, those are up for preorder here and should be shipping within a couple weeks.

(We'll have a finished one at Katsu because of our beloved @shaburdies dusting her 2019 costume off!)

Brad Downey 2008

Kidult 2011

Occupy Oakland

Die Verwendung von Feuerlöschern für Proteste gibt es seit ca. 10 Jahren. Feuerlöscher-Graffiti stammt von Gangs in LA, wurde dann von Graffiti-Writern verwendet, wurde um 2007 populärer, vor allem in NY und Paris (Nug, Psy, Toam, Katsu, Kidult, Krink) und dann in Berlin mit Just und Thrill, aber auch Aktionen wie Brad Downey, der 2008 die Berliner Schaufenster von Lacoste grün färbte, dann verbreitete es sich über das Internet, begann bei Protesten wie Occupy Oakland 2011 verwendet zu werden, Studentenprotesten in Italien 2013, Antifa-Markierung faschistischer Modegeschäfte in Berlin ca. 2012, weitere antikapitalistische Proteste in Italien, insbesondere in Mailand, in den folgenden Jahren (wie der No Expo Protest 2015). Seit 2019 wird es in den Klimaprotesten aufgegriffen, von Extinction Rebellion, Just Stop Oil und jetzt der Last Generation/Letzte Generation.

Animierte Collage 2014 in Essay über Feuerlöschergraffiti

"So war einmal zu lesen, dass Cyprien Gaillard am Rande eines Interviews Banksy seine „Verfehlinterpretation von Vandalismus“ vorwarf, wie er das genau gemeint hat bleibt erstmal unklar, aber greifen wird das auf. Banksy hat vor circa zehn Jahren ein großes brutalistisches minimalistisches Betongebäude mit einem Feuerlöscher beschriftet. BORING hat er darauf geschrieben. Eine langweiligere Aktion ist eigentlich kaum vorstellbar. Der Künstler Banksy hat es sicher geschafft, eine ästhetische Geste auszuführen, einem banalen Kommentar eine ähnliche brutale Dimension zu geben wie das brutalistische Gebäude. Doch der Vandale Banksy verfälscht die Aktion dadurch, dass er ein Video davon mit getragener Musik unterlegt, um sich als den kleinen Mann ganz groß zu inszenieren, der mit roter Farbe die große graue Welt symbolisch besiegt. Er knüpft an das verbreitete Missverständnis gegenüber moderner Architektur an, dass sie menschenfeindlich sei, weil sie so ungestaltet sei (auch das Gegenteil ist wahr). Ein bisschen wie in einem Quetschenpaua-Song: „All die Städte sind so grau wie die Menschen die in ihnen wohnen / Und die Stadtdirektoren haben kein Interesse das zu betonen […] Lass uns nie so werden denk ich und ich schreibe / Mit schwarzer Lackfarbe Scheiße an die Scheibe“. Es ist kein Vandalismus, es will populistische Kunst sein. Der Feuerlöscher eignet sich für derartige Symbolik sehr gut, so wie damals als Brad Downey abwaschbare grüne Farbe großflächig ans KaDeWe sprühte, als er eingeladen war, dort ein Schaufenster für Lacoste zu gestalten. Cyprien Gaillard hingegen hat auch mal ein Feuerlöscherkunstwerk gemacht, er zeigte wie aus Bäumen Nebelwolken abgefeuert wurden. Vielleicht ist das – im Feld der Kunst – näher am befreienden Moment des Vandalismus. Ein lustvolles Spiel mit sinnlosen vergänglichen Formen, Wolkenschubsen im Wald. Matias Faldbakken und Anders Nordby entluden auch einfach mal einen Feuerlöscher in einem Ausstellungsraum. Mehr im eigenen Bereich von Graffiti bleibend gab es lustvolle vandalistische Experimente, wie die Nackerten in Wien, die ihre eigenen Körper mittels Feuerlöscherfarbe auf Zügen abbildeten oder 0331C und Krink, die Bilder von Baumkronen und drippende Regenwolken aus Farbe in die Stadt spritzen.

Neuerdings hat auch Katharina Grosse nebenbei politische Kunst gesprüht, als sie die Graffiti, wuchernde Natur und heruntergekommene Gebäude an der Zuglinie zwischen New York und Philadelphia mit Farbe überziehen ließ. Denn nebenbei politisch ist dieses, sicher sehr beeindruckende, Farbspektakel, als Übertünchen von sozialen Konflikten, wie Sarah Kendzior kritisierte, die machtvoll groß angebrachte farbige Kulisse schiebt sich vor die Zustände am Rand und außerhalb der Metropolen."

Nun hat es die Technik endgültig in den Protest geschafft (siehe).

Motion Capture Suit from CATS Cosplayer: @loganarei  (IG)

Well my wife and I love cats the Broadway musical. And we had a pretty decent sized group for a cats cosplay group for Katsucon 2020. Right before the pandemic. I had an actual cosplay of Old Deuteronomy and my wife was Etcetera. There were maybe around 10 of us in the group.

 I thought to myself, wouldn’t it be hilarious if someone just went in a mocap suit and said they were a random cat from the terrible 2019 movie. So I decided when I got sick of being old Deuteronomy (it was large and very very hot), I could be that cat. I just bought a zenti suit and some ping pong balls. Wasn’t sure if I was even going to end up doing it. But I decided to while I was at katsu. I put it together in the hotel. My wife made a sign. I went out on the floor and people laughed. I love it. I love walking by and hearing it click in people and they start laughing.

Next on the road to Katsu and my second Witch costume is Umbreon.

I made her in 2019 and planned to have her at Katsucon 2020. But then, on the last day, I ended up having a medical emergency and had to leave the con early 🥲

So, it's time for take two!

Charles Note: Eating meat again

I haven't eaten meat in 15-20 years, short of the few times some schmuck mixes up our Taco Bell order and I get a bite in before realizing.

Our first trip to Japan, I tried to avoid not only meat, chicken, beef, pork, but fish, and if you consider that meat, there's meat in nearly everything. Dashi, the soup stock used in everything from miso to ramen and even things you wouldn't expect to contain or benefit from the flavor of fish, and bonito, a dried fish flake used to top and flavor various dishes, is everywhere. I tried to avoid it, short of eating like a monk or exclusively going to Westernized vegan restaurants, it's very difficult, and saying you "don't eat meat" won't exclude fish products or sometimes even chicken. I also missed out on a lot of good food. In our future trips, and when eating Japanese food in the US, I let fish slide.

When we were last here in 2019, I wanted to try wagyu beef but committed to waiting "until our honeymoon." In the time it took for COVID to come and become less of a huge concern and more a fact of life, I have learned about other unique food opportunities that might push the boundaries of letting a little meat slip in.

I started taking supplements to adjust my stomach to eating things I don't typically eat. Our first night, Miranda wanted to eat at a ramen restaurant we have tried before, but I gave her my pork chashu. This time, I ate it.

Then, on our second day, I had on our map a convenience store and restaurant that serves prepackaged katsu (cutlet) sandwiches with Ultraman branding. I have tried to replicate katsu without meat before, and while the taste wasn't something I can do without, the sandwich itself was very good. Japanese bread is always incredible, and you could put tonkatsu sauce on anything and make it better.

We went with a friend and her family to the restaurant used as a shooting location in Shin Ultraman, which in the film was shown to be a typical izakaya, or Japanese style pub. In reality, we had a multi course family style dinner which included beef and tofu hot pot. This was probably closer to the "first real meat" experience I was expecting. I am not sure it was something I couldn't do without, but I want to keep trying things. I am interested to try a few more unique dishes once I have an understanding of what real meat tastes like again.

小学館的漫畫雜誌01（少年向）

小学館的开篇，我们来聊少年向的部分。

週刊少年サンデー（周刊少年Sunday）

週刊少年サンデーS（周刊Sunday S）

ゲッサン （月刊少年Sunday）

月刊サンデーGX （月刊Sunday GENE-X）

サンデーうぇぶり

週刊少年サンデー（周刊少年Sunday）

发行时间：1959年3月17日（1959年4月5日号） -

人群向：少年

发行日：每周三（逢周三节日，改周二）

增刊：週刊少年サンデーS （Sunday S）

代表作：小鬼Q太郎（オバケのQ太郎）、泰罗·奥特曼 (ウルトラマンタロウ)、Touch（タッチ）、H2、KATSU!、福星小子（うる星やつら）、乱马1/2（らんま1/2）、犬夜叉、爆炎转校生 (炎の転校生)、究極超人あ〜る、双子鹰（ふたり鷹）、机动警察 (機動警察パトレイバー)、城市风云儿（YAIBA）、名侦探柯南（名探偵コナン）、電波教師、弥留之国的爱丽丝(今際の国のアリス)、我是大哥大（今日から俺は!!）等等。

『Sunday』的名字是初代編集長豊田きいち想到的，寓意是『阅读这本杂志让你感觉今天是周日』。由于项目启动时的核心人员是学年杂志的编辑，因此在推出前就被宣传为“小学馆的新儿童杂志”。轻松愉快的氛围是该杂志精神的主要组成部分。该杂志的倾向于在恋爱喜剧和恋爱漫画。这种倾向在中长期连载的作品中尤其强烈。另外，即使不是该类型的品，也有很多情节强烈暗示爱情或爱情喜剧元素。

相比于『周刊少年Magazine』强烈的编辑部的强势主导风格与『周刊少年Jump』、『周刊少年Champion』过于注重读者人气调查的数据结果，『周刊少年Sunday』在这方面更加宽松。Sunday的漫画家，一旦和编辑部协商好漫画的风格，相对不容易受到编辑部或者数据的影响，更容易长期连载。因此，相较之下作品在连载中大幅度修改风格的情况比较少。

杂志的知名漫画家藤子不二雄A、赤塚不二夫、横山光輝，小沢さとる，永井豪、石川賢、高橋留美子、安达充（あだち充）、島本和彦、ゆうきまさみ、新谷かおる、青山剛昌等等。

週刊少年サンデーS（周刊Sunday S）

发行时间：1978年8月号 -

人群向：少年

发行日：未知

代表作：ナイン、さすがの猿飛、ファントム無頼、鬼切丸、キャットルーキー等。

是一个主要注重培养新人作家的地方，新晋无名作家以发表一次性作品或短期连载作品作为进入杂志的敲门砖，以不熟悉每周连载的作家为主，直到2000年左右，还有原创的长期连载作品和读者角。此外，活跃在该杂志上的作家的一次性和短期连载也经常发表。有人气高的作品转到本刊（『週刊少年サンデー』）上连载的情况，反之人气低被转移到该杂志的也有。像弥留之国的爱丽丝(今際の国のアリス)、我是大哥大（今日から俺は!!）、健太やります!、蟲奉行（ムシブギョー）等等作品最初都是在本杂志连载，人气高后转到本刊上。

变迁

发行了超过20年以上的月刊，期间有连载作品。不过从2004年GOLDEN WEEK増刊到2009年NEW YEAR増刊改成了双月刊，不再刊登连载漫画，全都是一次性作品。直到2009年4月増刊才恢复为月刊，再度收录连载作品，同时在网络『クラブサンデー』（Club Sunday）上同时连载。2012年3月号开始，名称变为『週刊少年サンデーS』（スーパー）（多了一个super），独自连载的作品增加，网络平台连载作品减少。

从2016年左右开始，该杂志开始转变为一本带有浓郁《名侦探柯南》味道的杂志，几乎每期都会定期举办与《名侦探柯南》相关的专题和为大家服务的杂志，数量也越来越多。售出的商品开始增加。 2018年，由于《名侦探柯南》中的角色之一安室透的走红，该书的发行量开始迅速上升。此外，网络上同时连载的数量又开始增加。

2019 年 1 月号再次更新。尽管该杂志的名称徽标已更改且页数有所减少，但现在每期都包含一个名为“『サンデーmini』（Sunday Mini”）的单独增刊，其中包含新作者的多篇短篇小说。

ゲッサン（月刊少年Sunday/GET THE SUN!）

发行时间：2009年5月12日（同年6月号） -

人群向：少年、初高中生为主

发行日：毎月12日

增刊：ゲッサンmini（2013年4月号 - 2018年4月号）

代表作：Q&A (漫畫) (QあんどA)、信長協奏曲、MIX、放課後さいころ倶楽部、からかい上手の高木さん、摔角女王传说 (ここが噂のエル・パラシオ)、アサギロ 〜浅葱狼〜、純愛重金屬 (ハレルヤオーバードライブ!)等。

在Sunday系列杂志中，『ゲッサン』是一家特别注重培养新人的杂志，获得「GET THE SUN 新人賞」月例賞的新人作家的一次性和连载作品会被杂志积极出版。2016年7月13日开始发布电子版杂志。

月刊サンデーGX （月刊Sunday GENE-X）

发行时间：2000年7月19日（2000年8月号） -

人群向：少年

发行日：毎月19日

代表作：翼神传说 (ラーゼフォン)、落语天女 (落語天女おゆい)、REC、黑礁 (Black Lagoon)、贫穷姐妹物语（貧乏姉妹物語）、神样DOLLS (神様ドォルズ)、军火女王 (ヨルムンガンド)等等。

2000年7月19日（同年8月号）创刊，与集英社的『ウルトラジャンプ』（Ultra Jump）、講談社的『月刊マガジンZ』、秋田書店的『チャンピオンRED』、少年画報社的『ヤングキングアワーズ』（Young King Hour）分类上都属于混合媒体类的月刊漫画杂志。

与小学馆出版的其他Sunday系列杂志相比，它经常聘用没有太多连载经验，在其他杂志或其他公司出道的作家。杂志的大部分内容都是漫画作品，关于凹版偶像和电影、电视、动漫等一般爱好的文章很少，虽然大作停刊或停刊的情况很多（这是混合媒体漫画杂志的宿命）但很少有未经宣布的停刊（稿件掉落）或未完成稿件的出版（而这种情况在其他公司的类似杂志上经常看到）。

サンデーうぇぶり（Sunday Webry）

网站地址：https://www.sunday-webry.com/

代表作：流血女神伝、Sexiled：我的性别歧视党领袖把我踢出去了，所以我和神话女巫合作！（女だから、とパーティを追放されたので伝説の魔女と最強タッグを組みました）等。

2016年开始，小学館配信的漫画网站，同时提供Android iOS的应用下载。由『週刊少年サンデー』『ゲッサン』『月刊サンデーGX』三家杂志联合运营的免费漫画配信网站。出版这三本杂志、新作家的连载作品以及过去流行作品的重印。

连载的作品包括原创漫画、『週刊少年サンデー』连载的全部作品、『ゲッサン』『サンデーGX』『週刊少年サンデーS』除了部分连载作品的后续外，还对过去在这些杂志上连载过的一些作品进行了重印连载。

The use of fire extinguishers for protests goes back ca. 10 years. Fire extinguisher graffiti comes from gangs in LA, then was used by graffiti writers, popularized around 2007, mostly in NY and Paris (Nug, Psy, Toam, Katsu, Kidult, Krink) and then in Berlin with Just and Thrill, but also actions like Brad Downey making the Berlin windows of Lacoste green in 2008, then it spread through the internet, started to be used in protests like Occupy Oakland 2011, Student Protests in Italy 2013, antifa marking fascist fashion stores in Berlin ca. 2012, further anticapitalist protests in Italy, particularly in Milano, in the following years (like the No Expo protest 2015). Since 2019 it is picked up in the climate protests, by Extinction Rebellion, Just Stop Oil and now the Last Generation/Letzte Generation.

Today marks the two-year anniversary of Virgil Abloh’s tragic passing. On paper Virgil was an Illinois-born artist, architect, and fashion designer but in reality he was so much more. A world changer. Abloh shifted a whole generation through his catalogue of work and contributions, always being “open source” about his work, and leaving behind artifacts such as his “Free Game” resource or his iconic talks in order to spread knowledge and open doors for others. A true student, turned teacher, turned master that found a way to unite the various disciplines into one cohesive cultural fabric.

As quoted in VOGUE, Virgil was greatly inspired by his Nintendo days in the late 80s. Screenshots and video from the OFFKAT video game experience, which was released as part of the collaboration between Abloh’s fashion label Off-White and legendary graffiti writer and artist KATSU. Also pictured is his 2019 all-green Lower East Side pop up which featured his signature model-mannequin playing on a tonal PS4.

LONG LIVE VIRGIL 9/30/80 - 11/28/21 ✨✨🕊️✨✨
