TBH, I am not doing well emotionally and while the i7 events helped they didn’t help as much as I was hoping. Everything feels hopeless in a personal and broad level and I just kinda have to work through it.

I KNEW THERE WAS GONNA BE ANOTHER 3D LIVE TOUUUUURRRRR

I had a feeling that Nanalive wouldn’t be in the cards this year when they announced Expo, which is sad… I know they want to do it in Tokyo Dome but if it’s going to take this long maybe MetLife is better 🥹

I’ll be going to the live tomorrow so that’ll be fun

Admittedly was hoping for some different announcements but I am very hyped for the Tsushimi-sensei fantasy AU! She’s never done one for i7 has she?

At the i7 event hoping to feel emotion

I like shoujo manga and would like to continue drawing it but I am starting to see why a lot of people switch to seinen. It really feels like the range of stories you are permitted (esp. if you’re new) to tell has gotten pretty narrow over the years

Not only does severance have doomed old man yaoi it looks like it has toxic old man yaoi so that is where we are right now

i miss when this guy was the only LLM

My apologies, but if you’ve sent me a DM right now I won’t be able to see it for a couple of days until I’m back in Japan since I am currently at home in the US where I cannot access DMs without giving my ID :) Which I won’t do :)

Overworked translator: I'm going to cross reference both because I wasn't provided with the work done by the previous translator whose project I'm inheriting

Person who is learning japanese: I now have renounced the English language.... I will check out every single work in japanese to enlighten myself on the true meaning of the work Person who speaks japanese fluently +10yrs: imma read it in English I'm too lazy for this

Happy new year! Here are some character sheets that represent roughly 120+ pages of scrapped work

Hi! Here's every manga I lettered in 2025. 40 volumes, maybe 43ish if you count omnibuses. This was a recovery year for me "technically" but I still ended up pretty overloaded. I have about the right workload, but time management is a tricky beast. Will try better next year!

I’m doing better even though this year, yet again, ended on a bummer. I’d reflect on stuff but tbh I just want to achieve the thing I’ve been trying to achieve since the end of last year. I’m probably not going to be on social media as much. Thinking of paying for a site and maybe having a blog

Just a perfect end to a perfectly shitty year. I feel like I’ll never be good enough.

とりあえず去年のクリスマス絵でも投下しとくか🎄メリークリスマス🎁 #ファントムバスターズ

None of this means anything if companies don’t move here though. If your publisher still advertises on Twitter you’re fucking stuck there. Ugh

It would truly be great if that stupid fucking edit button is the straw that breaks the camels back that convinces all the JP users to move here. Please.

Severance might be the most anime-like US drama I’ve ever seen

Okay that reveal about the wife in Severance has me tweaking out what do you MEAN

Anyway. Watch 10Dance

Machida Keita will not rest until he has yearned after every Kamen Rider

I watched 10Dance. It was really good until the last 20ish minutes 😭 Not sure what that ending was… Still, I enjoyed it a lot regardless!

okay severance is way more like alien stage than I would ever expect it to be

What is Charlotte’s WEEB???? Are you kidding me???

Why does it always feel like I can sense failure on the horizon…

Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:

Okay the very very very last revision is in and now I have done everything I can do. If it fails at this point it fails. But I like the pitch so I’ll probably shop it at different places in that case…after being sad for a while

When you create things, the end result is often the reward you get for the process. You cannot be rewarded without going through the process to get there.

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

BokuPuri is everything I could ever have wanted

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

But not before I have one last round of minor revisions because of course LOL

Wow, Wish is a really boring Disney movie…

Some promising news for once……now to wait 2 more weeks. Good thing I have booked myself with more work than I probably should have this month

The handmade, human qualities of your work are more valuable than they've ever been. Don't doubt that for a second.

Dumb thing I drew the other day while thinking about my floor 🥺

Doesn’t matter how many times I watch it, I always tear up a little when Alex Lasarenko’s pic is revealed in that Disney Channel theme Ep of Defunctland…what a work of art

This really is a must read for anyone in academia.

i can be trusted with vintage typography equipment

Oh okay this video just did a Mortal Kombat Fatality on me

I'm at the combination

Finally watching Belle for the first time and yeah…I feel like Hosoda should probably focus on being an 演出家 instead of a screenwriter…

(RACHEL walks past children playing. Her biological clock ticks. She’s thirty, almost dead.) LITTLE GIRL: Are you excited for the County Hanukkah Fair? RACHEL: Not really. I’m not super into Hanukkah.

Pray for me when I try to put together some sort of Bakuten side story for this LOL
