Found another old art. Usually they look like shit but this one holds up lol.

It was just a play with the idea that SC could do mind control, so he's leeched onto those titan ravager thingies.

Hi! I've read some of your Kazetsuyo posts and I've wanted to ask you, how do you feel about the Kakehai dynamic in the anime vs. the novel? It seems like the production team tried really hard to conceal any feelings Kakeru had for Hana in the novel, and instead focused all the "romantic aura" on Kakeru and Haiji. I don't believe it is for fanservice purposes but I find it odd. I understood from your answers that in the novel Kakeru's feelings toward Hana were quite serious, so why ? Thank you.

Hello and how do you do! Time for the Tl;DR that nobody asked for again, ahah (sweats)   This is all my personal opinion, but I feel that despite the obvious Hana shaft, Production IG really did not exclude Hana-chan with the specific intention of getting onboard with the Kakehai ship, and I’ll get to the why in a bit.

The thing about the anime vs novel is, even with Novel!Kakeru telling Joji he likes Hana-chan, it did not in any way muddy the bond between Kakeru and Haiji. In fact, I actually feel that the Kakehai ship is way STRONGER in the novel than the anime, simply because half the story is told from Kakeru’s POV, and… well, he interacts with Haiji the most. There is no denying in the novel that they have this special connection about them that one could definitely interpret as “romantic aura”… you know, soulmatey things that keep me awake at 1am in the morning, but I digress. (That said, interpreting Kakehai as family or brotherly love is also not wrong, and I would also agree with those who read their aura that way because context is important and goggles are subject to cultural bias, plus the nuance of skinship is often swept aside in fandom, but that’s another wall of text for another time). Back to Production IG. If you ask me, I feel their real intention was to remove anything that is overtly romantic or “too fan servicey”, that’s why Kakeru telling Joji he likes Hana was written out. Also, if pushing for Kakehai romantically had really been on the agenda, it would have been a gross oversight for them to have excluded not one but three obvious “ship-worthy” scenes from the novel: The part where Haiji “molested” Kakeru’s legs the first night they met; the part where Kakeru held Haiji in his arms when Haiji collapsed; and the exchange between Haiji and Kakeru on the train where Haiji shared something deeply personal about his dad. I also derived this conclusion based on my impression of the studio that worked on this anime and the stuff they churn out in general. From my observation, Production IG caters to a much wider audience demographic, including casual anime watchers who don’t appreciate excessive fan service. Or, if there is service, most of the time it would be geared towards male rather than female fans, given that they animate a lot of series from Shonen Jump, and even then their fan service is often tame compared to the obvious "offender” that is Kyoani. It seems more apparent to me that if there were intended romance to be had in the anime, it would specifically be the "romance” each character has with RUNNING. Because aside from Kakeru and Haiji, the other members were less developed until Production IG came along and built a story around them, taking whatever little crumbs that were written about the other eight and giving them more “meat”. Examples I remember would be like a single throwaway line that Nico was dieting, and also that Shindo had a girlfriend. Ouji in the novel hardly even interacted one-on-one with Kakeru. Kakeru never asked to read his manga nor was he the one who taught Ouji the proper way to run, and there was none of that “FORWARD!” character growth goodness. And that to me was a clear sign that Production IG wanted to make it about everyone in Aotake, not just the two main protagonists. The novel was more generous on the Kakehai service than the anime but the anime did so much better with all the others. That is not to say I don’t have fandom ship goggles on when I talk about Kakehai because I have been crying about them since March 14 2019, but I allow a lot of wiggle room for what category of love their love falls under. But eh, love is love, and all love is good love. (°◡°♡) Thanks for listening! p.s: Since we’re talking about Kazetsuyo anyway psst can I interest you in the Kazetsuyo stage play I swear it’ll grow on you, ( •̀ᴗ•́ )و ̑̑

Adrienette, Lukanette, Adrienette, Lukanette, Adrienette, Lukanette, Adrienette, Lukanette, Adrienette, Lukanette, Adrienette, Lukanette, Adrienette, Lukanette, ADRIENETTE! LUKANETTE! ADRIENETTE! LUKANETTE! IDK!? STOP BADGARING ME FANDOM!!! Even Marinette is indecisive about it! She’s just a dumb teenager who doesn’t know what she wants!..........does she?

*Desperada-Marinette and the girl squad were hangin’ out at Julekas house boat listening to Kitty Section rehearse and Marinette and Luka get cozy with each other. It also looks to be that the squad is starting to jump onboard with the Lukanette ship. Well, Adrienette isn’t goin’ anywhere so how much longer are they gonna support something that hasn’t even set sail yet!? Adrien and Kagami show up (having ditched fencing practice) and Marinette quickly leaves Lukas side to not give Adrien the impression she likes Luka. Oh, Marinette, what are we gonna do with you? She even says they’re “just friends” too🤨.

Jagged Stone arrives and he tries to get Juleka and Lukas mother back into the band cuz they had “history”. Oh! Thing is, he fired his guitarist, Vivica, and now he’s looking for a new one. Hmmmm, a new guitarist? Like, someone who knows rock n’ roll? And who’s young and talented? Marinette knows a guy like that! IIIIIIt’s Lu-Adrien!? Whomp! Whomp! Whomp! 🤦‍♀️. Marinette WTF!? Adrien is a classical pianist! I highly doubt he’s strummed a guitar! She knows damn well Luka is a better fit and yet she’s still trying to give Adrien hints she wants him! Okay, Marinette, I know how much you want Adrien, but you can’t just ignore talent when you see it from Luka.

Just then, Vivica shows up in her akumatized form calling herself Desperada! OOOOOH! So she’s that mysterious villainess I saw in “Gamer 2.0”! Well, thanks for the closure! (I’m talking to you person in charge of episode scheduling 😑). Desperada, I like that name, reminds me of a Rihanna song. Thing is, it’s more like a Western name and she didn’t really look “Western”. I mean, she kinda did with the whole musical skeleton make-up look, which is pretty cool, but nothing really “Wild Wild West” to me. It was more like something outta “The Book of Life” or “Coco” with that sugar skull thing. I’m a little fan of westerns where there’s a female outlaw that’s why. Her powers were using any instrument like a gun to capture people in her guitar case with a pic of them appearing on it as a sticker. Let’s just say if she wasn’t a musician, she’d make a bada** sniper!

Anyways, Desperada captures everyone except the love triangle kids and Ladybug is given the lucky charm to bring in extra help from Master Fu again using the snake miraculous! The snake miraculous!? OOOOOH! We saw who that was! (“Party Crasher”), some people in the fandom were right about it too! And now, ladies and gentlemen, the holder of the snake miraculous, (drum roll) Luk(trumpets begin to sound)-ADRIEN!? AGAIN!? (trumpets die out). WTF!? WHY!? Okay, I get it, he did save Luka when Desperada almost got him and as we know, Marinette/Ladybug doesn’t know Adriens Cat Noir, but still! Adrien agrees to it thinking he’ll win over Ladybug in a new superhero form since this time, she knows who he is and becomes “Aspik”...........(turns to the trumpeteers) you guys can sound I guess, (trumpets sound, but not enthusiastically). Okay, thank you.

So um, the snake miraculous is a bracelet of a snake swallowing itself, a Kwami snake like being named Sass (remember him from “Sandboy”!? He’s kinda like the leader of the Kwamies), a harp weapon and its power is “Second Chance” where they can go back a few minutes in time by turning the snake head on their bracelet back and it’s not a one hit power! It can go on as many times until the snake head gets to the end! It’s almost like Bunnyxs power except hers is more serious and can go back (and fourth) many times and it’s more fragile. Huh, I always thought the snake miraculouses power would be hypnotism, but I’m thinking too much “Jungle Book” here (what do snakes have to do with time travel!?). That’s cool! So it’s just Ladybug and Aspik vs. Desperada. It. went. TERRIBLE! Ladybug kept getting captured again and again and again and again and again AND AGAIN! And do you know why!? Cuz Aspik over here was too busy trying to woo Ladybug and not focusing on defeating the bad guy! That’s why!

ENOUGH! Adrien quits cuz he’s had it with being a f**king failure as it’s been 25,913 times! 25,913 TIMES!? 25,913 TIMES!? 25,913 TIMES!? 25,913 TIMES!? DAMN ADRIEN! YOU SUCK! Ladybug finally sees she’s wrong again! So Adrien suggests Luka take the miraculous instead. HALLELUJAH! Ladies and gentlemen, the real holder of the snake miraculous, Viperion, a.k.a. Luka Couffaine! (trumpets sound and end with a big finish!). Now this guy, this guy! Does a hell of a better job than “Aspik” did and it only took him a few tries! Humph!

I apologize for my wild outbursts there, I’m a very passionate writer and I speak what others are afraid to say. I’m like a voice for the people. I’m sure that’s what all of you were probably thinking way in the back of your heads there about the plot that occurred in the episode. I’ve settled down now and I’ll explain more. Ahem, first off, the girl squad are now leaning towards the Lukanette ship cuz they’re probably sick and tired of all the Adrienette nonsense and want something new. More importantly, they think this ship better since Marinette is more comfortable with Luka and how he’s more liberated than the sheltered Adrien. Fair point. The character Vivica/Desperada was based off a fan who won a contest at comic con and was originally supposed to be a veterinarian until they changed it to a guitarist (she looked so cute!). I heard about that, they also said she was supposed to be a fan of Cat Noir and was upset that he wasn’t getting as much recognition as Ladybug. It would’ve been nice cuz according to my Love Chart (which I legit have), nobody and I mean NOBODY likes Cat Noir, so cut him some slack and give him at least one fangirl! C’mon! Adrien failed at being the snake miraculous holder, but it’s not because he sucked (25,913 TIMES!? That’s like 3 months!), but it’s cuz there was no black cat hero to assist Ladybug! It was just Ladybug and Aspik and no Cat Noir! I thought they would’ve realized by now that they can’t defeat the villain unless it’s both of ‘em (plus a third or fourth party if necessary) to stop ‘em! Sure Ladybug defeated Style Queen by herself, but at least she had a “black cat” like someone there to help! It has to be Ladybug and Cat Noir! Good luck/Bad luck, Yin/Yang! That’s the idea! The reason why they didn’t see that was cuz they were both blinded by love! Marinette/Ladybug mostly picked Adrien to be the snake miraculous holder cuz she thought, “OMG! I’m gonna be fighting crime with my crush!” and Adrien/Cat Noir said yes cuz he thought, “Maybe she’ll love me this time if she knows who I am!” :P. Even Plagg thought it was a bad idea cuz he knew they needed Cat Noir and they weren’t even focused on Desperada and just trying to court each other! You’d think Marinette/Ladybug would’ve listened to her own words about Adrien being a distraction in her life (“Chameleon”). Speaking of courting, during one of Aspiks failed Second Chances, he confessed to Ladybug that he was Cat Noir (cuz she knows he’s Adrien as Aspik) and we only see a brief look of shock on her face before she’s captured again. Wonder what was quickly goin’ through her head at that point? Flashbacks of all her moments with him as himself and Cat and how she acted like both herselves in front of ‘em realizing how stupid she’s been? Lol! The shocks gonna be more wilder when it happens though and I’ll be there to see it. Ladybug really should’ve picked Luka first cuz at least he was bold enough to step in and distract Desperada to save Ladybug like he did as Viperion. Poor Adrien though, now he’s gonna think his Lady is too incompetent to be a hero. Well, not a “snake” hero at least, but a different animal hero if only she knew. The problem is Marinette is indecisive. She doesn’t know what she wants which is why she can’t choose between Adrien and Luka. Tikki and Kagami can see that and the latter even points out how Marinette needs to make up her mind already! Actually, according to the Season 3 canon episode order, this is actually the start of the mid episodes which means things won’t get more complicated ‘til the end. Especially when the last few episodes are more focused on the love issues. Currently, we’re dealing with plot right now, but we’ll eventually get there.

USS Jupiter was the Olympic and now is raised once again, and back in service for us after the Japs grabbed it and outfitted her with Zeros.  they lost the battle, to the Arachnid who flew over with the high caliber weapons meant for them.  they stole tons of it about half which is a lot scanned it all, re scanned and check upon loading.

Some sketches of Beast SC. Some kind of stickfigure art. :D (AvA:NO tag is because his design is based of its lore)

Slight redesign on the patterns on SC's fighting suit.

No this not smut at all mmmmm fem men in black bodysuits no this isn't smut.

He's got the grumpy owl stare.

Yes yes I saw the new trailer here's sm funny lazy doodlees.

And yes ofc I needed to incorporate AvA:NO into it. Although I'm not sure if I might need to cut out the events of those episodes out of the lore.

Just AvA:NO doodles again. (For context, "rushji" means stickmen like the CG with full heads. Oh yeah and throughout SC's backstory he was thin and bullied around)

And definitely not smut while I do a very slight redesign to SC's fight suit to represent their flag more.

Best I can do is a mem.

Reminder that this armoured mf just waltzes into the CG's house.

The music is a concept melody made for the story.

I'm just gonna upload my sketches I've been doing like last year or so, because I'm pretty sure I will literally never finish it.(mainly since obv my current style is very different from here)

Do Skrunkly TSC, Mippy-Van and Scangi Vaan like head pats and scritches? If so I will give them some.

I'm not sure about the ying yang sisters. They'd probably recreate those scenes from old movies where a person shoves a plushie in their face and pretend it's attacking them.

With Weewee, perhaps for a second. (anyway this image needed to exist)

A few doodles playing with design and anatomy style again. We have character development and then just something that came up in my mind. SC bein' funky. 👍

(Dw I'm not abandoning the style I usually draw stickmen in. I just want to draw anatomy every now and then)

Love it when hoes speak mystical languages.

Even through I have a very very similar project coming up, have this doodle because art block won't leave me tf alone.

For the curious: Shjy-e sak mut-ju, jor' muasse-ju. Bitches be like, I'm bisexual.

Vaash is literally Toph Beifong since he's a green bean metal bending machine that doesn't need eyes to kick ass.

Been forever since I drew Dark. Normalise Dark looking like a dungeon dweller boss.

It started off with me wanting to make a bunch of faces of Red... Then it turned into this chaos.
