Rumic World Week (Day 7)

Sorry to end this @rumicworldweek like this but I just wanted to thank Rumiko Takahashi for creating so many great works. I hope my little entries maybe sparked someone to check out a work of hers they've missed out on before, as she really does not miss. Happy birthday, Takahashi-san! I'm so glad you adore making manga so much because there's nothing I love more than reading it.

Rumic World Week (Day 6)

I'm mega late celebrating @rumicworldweek and because I've been sort of busy and wanted to reread all of Mao before talking about it. For my favorite scene, I wanted to mention the thrilling and stressful situation Nanoka has to deal with regarding her grandfather! Not to get into spoiler territory, but I loved the sense of tension as stuff got discovered in the story. There's a real air of mystery.

Rumic World Week Day 7-Free day

Bless Rumiko Takahashi for giving me the best-flawed boys ever. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HER!!!

Day 7 of @rumicworldweek - Happy Birthday Rumiko Takahashi!! 🎉

Sadly, no art for today since it seems I've hit an artblock after drawing for almost an entire week 😭, but to be fair everything drawn for this week was for sensei's birthday after all. I wanted to draw art for Mermaid Saga, One Pound Gospel and Rumic Theatre, but unfortunately there's only seven days in a week (though I have drawn art for Mermaid Saga like a week earlier and I have drawn an art for one of the Rumic Theatre stories months ago. Sorry One Pound Gospel, eventually!!) And plus, when it comes to topic of Rumiko Takahashi and her works, I decided to talk about it rather than draw...

Rumiko Takahashi... Honestly, all her works mean a lot to me. Each have it's own reasons, reasons why they're more than just mere stories to me. I guess it's mainly because of how good of a storyteller she is. Here's a little tidbit from her which may show why:

And boy, does it make me feel exactly how she wants it to. She knows what the reader looks forward to and she delivers just that while having fun. The amount of love and passion in her works in insane and the little details put to the story and characters are exactly what I love about her tales. Then there's the amount variety when it comes to her stories which I think is the most obvious when you pick up just one volume of the rumic theatre, one moment you're reading a hijinks story about a boy who just want to deliver newspapers but keeps getting interrupted by invaders and half- fishmen and the next moment you'll be reading a horror where this high school kid who knows archery is trying save his girlfriend from being murdered by his yandere cousin.

Honestly, just the amount of one shots she have is enough to prove how much as well as the number of chapters her serializations have is enough to show how much dedication and passion RT has for manga and this dedication is just what makes their quality so good. Urusei Yatsura makes me laugh and reminds me to have fun and enjoy life. Maison Ikkoku taught me about growing up. Mermaid Saga is a spine-chilling story which talks about the price of greed. Ranma 1/2 brings about the topic of familial love besides the romance itself. I've only watched the OVA for One Pound Gospel, but what intrigues me the most is the fact that the main pairing is a boxer and a nun, it's like the strangest pairing you could make but Kosaku and Sister Angela make it work and let's just say I love these kind of strange pairings, lol. Inuyasha talks about letting go from the past while still keeping the important within you. Kyoukai no RINNE is quite nostalgic to me as someone who grew up in a family who's very keen on saving money and a lot of moments make me laugh because I've been similar situations and it's nice to look back on them. And finally, MAO is the series I'm currently growing up with.

I know Rumiko Takahashi will never see this but.. Thank you so much for everything, your characters and stories managed to lift my spirits in the darkest of times and remind me that everything will eventually be okay. I know I'm not the only one who thinks this and all of what I've said is why I love Rumiko Takahashi and her stories.... ♥

I'm glad that I was able to participate in this year's Rumic World Week. Thanks to everyone who's liked and reblogged my posts and I hope everyone reading this has a great day ahead!! 🌹

Rumic World Week Day 6- favourite scene or quote

Wanted to draw this scene but I am too damn tired to do it today so have the scene I love the most in my native language because I can.

Day 6 of @rumicworldweek, Favorite scene or quote:

Kagome reflects Tsubaki’s Shikigami

Inuyasha Chapter 197: The Shikigami

I absolutely cannot choose one favorite scene of Inuyasha, so I opted to highlight one of my favorite scenes.

I like the Tsuabki arc for several reasons: my favorite girl Kagome takes center stage in the action, the drama of her fighting the curse to keep from killing Inuyasha (Kag telling Inu to run! Inu refusing to leave her side! I live!), Kikyō popping up to stir up some mischief, Kagome asserting her autonomy (her banger line “I’m Kagome! I’m not anyone else!”), and the dark miko Tsubaki is one of my favorite villains in the series.

The BEST part, however, is Kagome using her bow as a conduit for her powers in order to reflect Tsubaki’s curse back at her.

Inuyasha Chapter 198: The Curse Reflected

WHOA! SO FUCKING COOL! GO, KAGOME, GO! ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

Now let’s see that in the anime *rolls that beautiful bean footage*

Inuyasha Episode 60: The 50 Year Old Curse and the Dark Priestess

Yea, eat it, Tsubaki! Fuck around and find out about my girl Kags.

Why didn’t Rumiko ever let Kagome do this kinda badass miko stuff again?! Ugh, I know I know, Kagome suffered from Too Powerful Character syndrome so RT had the majority of her powers “sealed” throughout the series, blah blah blah.

Since Inuyasha and the Tessaiga power-ups get more narrative focus, I like a moment when Kagome and her BAMF miko powers get to shine. Shine on, Kagome! xD

Well, uh... wanna go for a walk with me a little longer?

@rumicworldweek • day 6 -> favourite scene : Urusei Yatsura episode 10

Rumic world week day 5 favorite side character

@rumicworldweek

I’m going to say Sasuga!! He’s adorable and cute with a dark side, he honestly gives me some Rin vibes!! I live for his dynamic with Mei and Renji like their a lil family 🥹 Also he is such a drama queen i love it.
