Not sure if you enjoy fanart, but I wanted to make you something…
Currently working on some fanart for the lovely @semianonymity ‘s story over on AO3, Anoint Your Wings With Love, a beautifully written wingfic story about Komatsu showing his love and care for the Four Heavenly Kings by wing grooming, and the Kings slowly but surely accepting and showing their care and love in return.
It’s heartbreaking, amusing, painful, and soothing all at once, and I love it! You glorious writer, you break my heart and make it sing.
I’m gonna work more on this digitally, as well as make some sketches around the more terrifying/heartbreaking parts of All Living Things, another fantastic story about Komatsu being sacrificed to a demon Toriko, and them slowly but surely becoming friends, and maybe something more…
I absolutely adore your stories, and I hope you enjoy the art coming your way!
Anyhow folks,
~Toodles!

look at how confident and pleased with herself sorawo looks as she utters the stupidest line she says in the entire series. just blissfully unaware that the words she has just spoken have done more psychic damage to her partner than anything they have encountered in the alien dimension made of human fear. sorawo kamikoshi is made of a material so dense it should be studied in a lab

*desperately wanting more anime/manga based around food. Like ACTUALLY about food - if there's a plot, I'll love it. But really, it's a bonus in comparison*

I love that Kozakura's read on SoraTori is "two idiots that make each other Worse"

sometimes I wonder why Toriko didn’t bring up that she smooched the doppelganger during their dinner. But then I think “would she admit to kissing an otherside entity?” and the answer is probably “no”
(ripped from one of my sketch files so it’s pretty low quality)

Sunny: You have an unhealthy obsession with food.
Toriko: You mean the stuff that keeps us alive?
Toriko: Yes. Yes, I do.
Toriko: Hello, my name is The Glutton Of The Heavenly Kings and I am a food eater.

Otherside Picnic Volume 3
Tumblr media
Yeah yeah, I'm pretty well behind on having only just read this volume, I know. I'm slow with a lot of light novel reading because I really want to be in it, you know? I want to savor every moment and feel like I don't want to put the book down while I'm reading.
And it just happened that lately I've really been craving for the horror and fear that stems from Miyazawa's expert understanding of net and folklore horror. So imagine my surprise when I pick up the volume and see just how far Shirakaba's art has come. Sure, it was never bad by any means. But my god, this volume's illustrations are amazing. The level of detail has skyrocketed, but at the same time a more clear and personal style appears. Heavy and dark contrast, an overall feeling of weight with each piece of art. Even though they can look vastly different due to moments, the overall feel of it remains. Really, hats off in that regard, truly some outstanding art.

Of course, Miyazawa's writing withstands the shock of this incredible improvement from Shirakaba.
Their perception of horror - what comprises it and causes fear- remains absolutely expert. From the endings of the previous omnibus volume we continue the downwards spiral into Sorawo's personal hell. The types of contact, and the overall fear that arises from it are spine chilling.
Perhaps the biggest proponent is Miyazawa's ability to guide readers to answers. You can connect the dots as things go on, realize that there is something wrong, that there's a heavy feeling in your stomach and that all your hairs stand on end as your mind races to the finish line. It's such an incredible experience, where at times they don't even tell you the answer. Instead, you're left with a lingering feeling and concern for what things are and why.
Personally, it's my perfect definition of horror. Beyond us. You can come up with as many answers as you want to everything that unfolds, but for just as many things there are that Sorawo and Toriko resolve, there are just as many spine shudderingly disturbing pieces left hanging.
Of course, Otherside Picnic does like to remind readers that it's not just about disturbing and scary stuff. It's a healthy mix of characters that are poorly adjusted in the social sense (among many others), and their attempts to grope through their incredibly odd predicament. All of the characters that appear in this volume are so full. They're all hopeless and oddball versions of the more "simple" characters that they're portrayed as in the anime. They all have very glaring character issues, and present as far less perfect even in spite of how others view them. It's incredibly refreshing, and they all stumble through their interactions in an endearing and believable way that develops as the story continues.
The biggest thing from this volume though is just the sheer effort Miyazawa puts into the horror. It's not middle of the ground, on the spot horror stories they themselves come up with, but a far deeper and darker world that they draw from. Hours upon hours of historical and archival searching of books and webpages and chat forums to produce countless stories that end up interwoven and meld together into a cohesive framework to address the Ultra Blue Landscape via.
It's insane. Not only are we, as readers, attempting to understand the Otherside and its creators and/or inhabitants, Miyazawa is translating it. They're pulling from our reality, adding their own spin and twist to it, and spitting it out in the form of communication. The sheer talent to preserve the original value of the stories used, while at the same time repurposing them is incredible.
In terms of horror, I truly feel that Otherside Picnic stands comfortably separate from so much of what makes up the genre, not even just within the framework of animanga, but of modern media in general. So much of what's popular and talked about is on the absolute fringes of what horror is: that sense of dread and fear. Not 30 seconds of buildup into a single jumpscare reveal that the characters run away from. Rather, the tension building and things seeming wrong, like something is lurking around the corner and you absolutely must find out. Or that there's some terrible figure/creature staring right at you that has you frozen in place. Horror is not thriller, and Otherside Picnic continues to establish that beautifully.
Also, for the best reading experience, the anime OST is actually outstanding for furthering that fear. Plenty of songs that will put you perfectly on edge. You can find the full playlist right here.
