Wip ref sheet.
I got my tablet early! Trying to see if I can restore my old content, which would be nice.
Any ways, anatomy/shading study/trying to figure out how to draw tattoos.
I forgot his make up but I'm just excited to have art to post.

i have so so many questions about hollow mind :OOO
wait so the original intention of the sigils was to straight up just kill them? that seems. unnecessarily elaborate considering the golden guard destroyed their city just fine ;—;
i mean. he needs the palismans right but when he broke one off its staff none of the green stuff came out?
also im guessing at least one of the old golden guards was darius considering luz made a comment about him being sad and i guess hes working with raine now?? maybe???
im guessing the evil belos is the green stuff like. corrupting him or something?? like how the curse is a separate entity in edas head??? it is like. blue tho which is interesting cus the palisman magic is green and his glyph magic is yellow and his general designs are yellow and brown
wait also also we still dont know who made the door if belos didnt like. go back through it?? idk i assume thats like actually a thing thats gonna be answered
is the collector the titan? because they seem to like the coven idea? and theyre kinda the one leading belos i think? at least in this memory
sorry i dont like. have a brain :PP
(this feels kinda hollow knight to me but idk why :P)
so there's a lot i want to say but unfortunately a lot of the answers to your questions are spoilers--- i will try to answer as much as i can though :PP
the intention of the sigils was never to kill them! it was for a different reason that probably would have ended in their death, however. but like. all of those people did die anyway. they just. froze to death. instead of being killed by the sigils.
there's no good explanation for that one unfortunately... i have no idea why the palisman soul didn't come out when he broke it off. my guess is that it's either just like an oversight or that since the soul was already manifested in the palisman soul creature in his mind, it didn't show up in his memories
darius was never a golden guard, however one of the previous golden guards was his mentor. i can talk more about the golden guards once you've finished the episode and i have a lot to say about that so if you want to hear um i guess just let me know there's a lot lot lot of secrets and little things hidden in hollow mind that are so interesting and it's so good to pick apart and all of the pictures are like foreshadowing and interesting little things and just. it's such a good episode---
so the green stuff is actually never explained, but in my mind it's palistrom wood. because he took the souls of so many palismen to keep himself alive, he is slowly being corrupted by the false magic and the inhumanity of it all, and the scar on his face looks like rotten palistrom wood. but the entity overall is made up of all the souls of the palismen he's killed to keep himself alive, cause they're like trapped inside of him since he just kinda like snorted their souls
so i actually don't remember if that's a thing that's explained that well later in the show because like the series got cut short and also i don't remember as much of the later episodes as i'd like but i can talk more about that once you finish the show i'm so sorry--- but no belos did not make the portal
the collector is not the titan! he's just such a silly little guy and i love them so so so so much and i feel bad cause i literally never draw them--- (also he canonically uses he/they pronouns!!! which is amazing i love them so much um don't look them up though because spoilers)

What is an argument Elriels make about Azriel and Elain that you wish they’d stop making because it makes us look bad?
I sont think if this will answer your question exactly because I don't think that it's about 'Elriels looking bad', but overall, I think there are two things that I personally find frustrating at times.
First and foremost, I wish we'd give less attention to Gwynriel. As a whole. Just less engagement. I think that we all fall into the rabbit hole of Gwynriel, where it starts to look 'real'--but if we are being rational and smart about it, I think we'd be much happier if we treated it as what it is--a crackship. I know I get a million questions about Gwynriel, and I answer them, but honestly, I always want to ask: why are you worried about this? Like, why are you worried about one line in a bonus chapter? You are doing exactly what Gwynriels do! They obsess over one-two lines in a bonus chapter and then create 30 page PP presentations about it. I think if we stopped thinking about Gwynriel as an actual ship, and treated it like Bryceriel or Azris, we'd all be happier and it would create less friction, because if you 'roll your eyes' and ignore it, it just gives that thing less validity. It's like flat earthers. You can debate them, but why?
The second thing, is I think Elriels tend to over-index on the importance of Elain. I love Elain and I loved her accomplishments and I love her journey so far, but I don't think that every mention of a flower, of 'life', of 'growth' is a reference to Elain. There ARE some very obvious references to Elain, some strong conclusions we can draw, but I think my personal unease stems from the fact that I don't exactly know or understand how SJM thinks about Elain. Does she like Elain? I don't know. I think that as she writes her, SJM might fall in love with her, but as a whole, I really dont know how much she thinks about Elain and whether everything is foreshadowing to her. From everything I've heard about SJM, she is a bit of a mean girl. Does she feel more comfortable writing Aelins, Bryces and Nesta? Is she capable of removing her own prejudices when it comes to Elain and writing a good story and an amazing characterization? I am not sure yet.
I guess the bottom line is, I think we think about Elain a lot more than SJM thinks about Elain.
If she could, would SJM write another Nesta book? I think that she would. I dont think there is bandwidth anymore for that, but can I see it? Yeah.

WOO WOO U REBLOGGED IT U UNLEASHED MEH-
So your art YOUR ART VERMI distinguishing features? Lots. First of all I've noticed that when you do digital art it's kinda- Pixels? Like I don't know what you use and if it's paint but ur rockin' it
Also colors? I don't see you adding color that much (but I'm like. Anything but attentive) but when you do you. You ADD COLOR like I dunno. Literally the brightest stuff my eyes are melting and I love it, I pick them up and eat them in a desperate attempt to eat your art
Also when you draw on paper i- I don't know how to describe it but it looks so light and effortless like you're very confident in your lines and it shows somehow. Literally no idea if it's true but jdiksd listen I have two brain cells and both of them are stolen and one of them's from you so
Hope. This is comprehensible.
twirlsss tail hehehehehe
the thing about my traditional lines is mostly that i dont sketch and hardly erase :PP i just go at it and thats how i do lotta art
as fur my purrograms its mewsually mspaint + trackpad when im lazy and csp when im not. i mewsed to mewse medibang but i have upgraded
colors SUCK and i HATE THEM no i dont i am just very,, very,,,,, tired all the time,,,,,,,,,,,, so if i must i will obviously go Bold. i like bold easy to see art. thats why i mewse the aliased brushes. that and i can just paintbucket tool them. any ofur brush is fur suckers
dont worry i have lotsa braincells i wont miss one

I just wanna say I don't know much at all about Touhou but my friend shows me your art sometimes and I think the way you draw flandre is very good she's so small and so kiddy and it's nice to not see her drawn like a murder-crazy monster keep up the great work
Ohoho! then if you're new around these parts i am absolutely DELIGHTED to inform you that the "murder crazy monster" flandre is one hundred percent a fanon fabrication! (which by the way i loathe with every fiber of my being) now i'll rant to you a little bc i never miss a chance to show Flandre's good character charms sorry its my autistic brain going supercharged, critical mass even, whenever flan is mentioned, shes been a character ive held very dear to me since i was barely 13 (almost twelve years ago!) so you have to imagine my brain sizzling like soda with mentos as i'm typing this
Y'see, this uh. portrayal dates back from when our only source of flandres character was her introduction in touhou 6: EoSD (2002). Now. she DID flex about being strong and scary and threatening etc etc but what people dont get is that it was just for show! yknow! like a kid in their ebony dementia raven way phase. You cant tell me you'd see a kid in their edgy mary sue phase who blasts nightcore evanescence from the shared family computer all day and take them seriously.
after you defeat her you find out that the child is absolutely clueless on what shes doing, knows ABSOLUTELY nothing about socialization 101 and thought scaring the hell out of you was how you make pals, but if you play the reimu route she offers to give you a cake to thank you for playing with her (which has blood as an ingredient so reimu refuses but flan doesnt KNOW that humans dont drink their own blood. also she doesnt hunt her own food like remi does so thats actually sakuya's cooking)
Tumblr media
so she DOES try to be your friend. basically the kids confused to an absurd degree but shes absolutely got the spirit
My second point: there are little character sheets written from the PoV of Akyuu which serve as official references (called Perfect Memento in Strict Sense, 2007! I always recommend this as a must-read for new fans!), and it was the first clue, a little nudge, a little trail of breadcrumbs leading to the fact that Maybe the rumors that remilia locked up her sister are actually just rumors.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But then it got confirmed in Cheating Detective Satori (2019-ongoing official manga written by ZUN w guest artists for each chapter) which portrays flan and not only is she super excited about showing off her collection of dolls and stuffed animals to sakuya but also she says this.
Tumblr media
Flan is actually very introverted and CHOOSES to stay in the basement. None of that "remilia locked her up" bs, it's officially debunked!
Tumblr media
(and the day i stop showing this panel of CDS to defend her characterization, you can assume that i am deceased)
ALSO. LITTLE RASCAL SAVED GENSOKYO T W I C E. First, she used her destruction powers to disintegrate a METEOR that was headed for the scarlet devil mansion and would have an impact radius that would reach all the way to youkai mountain. She made it explode and went back to her basement to take a nap (and Remilia tried to take the credit for that but failed horribly)
AND THEN theres touhou 17.5 where she's the ONLY playable character that actually solves the incident. Again, her power to destroy anything made her the ONLY gensokyo resident able to face Yuuma without her eating Flan's bullet for lunch.
So yeah! her reputation is atrocious but the gal's not even closely as bad as people make her seem.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk i am here every day same hour and i will talk your hear off about Flandre Scarlet and i will defend her portrayal until my last breath.
PS: little headcanon moment yeah woo yeah but uhh in my head i always pictured her voiced by Ikue Otani, best known as the voice of pikachu, but specifically >her role as Hana from Ojamajo Doremi<
PPS: if you're new around here; despite everything, flandre is not actually my favorite touhou. no, nononono she is only second. Nah, the honor of the gold medal goes to ✨Her✨. do NOT get me started. I will talk for days without taking a breath between sentences.

I don't know if this will work, but it feels better than talking at my notebook or future me or whoever finds this thing later
hi, Ocean's Hungry Grasp. I keep wanting to thank you for things but I dont know how to do it best. I'm not sure youll be able to get this, or if you can read, or maybe if you can hear everything im thinking so it doesnt matter anyway? but I'll write anyway. I don't like being so far away from you but maybe I can be helpful somehow.
Thunderspeaker told me that I needed to use actions instead of words to communicate with you. (I don't know how much you watch but weve met some of your... fellow spirits? and are going to go find more to convince them to help! I hope some of the ones we're looking for are a bit closer to you, though.)
Is there a way for me to show devotion from so far away? I cant leave anything at your shrine, and i cant send the people you want to you directly (probably?)
can you feel it when I use magic? if I make a wave is it like an extension of you or me? how much of a difference is there, even? I keep feeling a pull and I can't tell if it's from you or me. I really like the power you've given me, though that feels like an understatement? I'm very happy with it but I can't help craving more... is this how you feel? I can see more and more why you are named the way you are, I think.
if you get this, thank you again, and I promise I'll keep doing what I need to.
(ps. if theres a way for you to help me know what to do, i would like that. or even a way for you to make your presence known more?)
(pps. I hope you can see all the drawings i do for you... should i start putting them in water?)

hi guys this is my discord pfp ive had the same discord pfp for about likeee 8 years i think almost since when i made my acc so i decided to redraw it lololz its of my oc dawn! the original drawing is the second one and the last one is my first attempt that i hated a lot so i did it again lolol
i realized if i was gonna like it it was going to have to be chibi like the original one was! i dont draw eyes super humongous like that anymore so i was going to have to compromise while still keeping my current style which was hard and i realized is why i hated the 3rd one so much 😭 just looks too strange dawn has also gone thru a lot of changes since that original drawing like her attitude lolz she has sharp fangs and a scowl my favorite traits 🦅🦅!!! as well as her hair and pupils ( ◇ vs �� ) but im pretty sure i made them the same back then bc i didnt really know how to make it look good when its different so i dont think that part actually chanhed okayyy done rantinf now :PP

Martyn and Jimmy in LLSMP Session 5 and Evo SMP
Martyn lying Directly to Jimmy's face to get his life back in session 5 hurts so much when i was literally watching Evo yesterday. because like...it is HEART-BREAKING in the context of evo?
like, of course Jimmy believed him when Martyn told him they could just run away together. look at their history!
they were INSEPERABLE on evo. like, literally. a lot of their povs are almost identical because they start and end each episode together. there's a some deviations where they have separate things to do (or secret missions...), but comparatively few. they're the two members of the property police, and are very involved with the events of the server as a whole, but importantly all their shenanigans are done together and they're very established as a duo.
and evo is absolutely relevant to them on last life, because they bring it up themselves. in Jimmy's episode 2, Martyn suggests a business idea with him called "boogey blockers" where they try to stop the boogeyman. and he specifically says it can be like the old property police (he says the PP logo just flipped upside down to make bb lol)
ANYWAY so evo, and their partnership as the property police specifically, is explicitly mentioned in last life.
so fast forward to session 5? when Martyn is tricking Jimmy into giving back the life, he tells him they can leave together, and figure it out. he says the southerners are weak and will be a target soon, and he and Jimmy can just run away and do their own thing. he says they'll set up boogey blockers like they talked about--specifically drawing on their history together. he even tells him he understands the motive.
so then it hurts all the more when he just drops the façade immediately and says "i didn't mean a word of what i said. you're an idiot." LIKE. okay Jimmy stole his life, and Martyn has right to be angry about it. in fact, I'd like to take a brief detour and point out how the voice was pushing Martyn very hard to get the life back. he was already telling Jimmy that he had no qualms about killing him while he chased him, but then voice tells him "FORGET THE RULES" and only then does he begin to hit Jimmy with his sword. Since the voice is added in post, I feel like the timing of this significant. Green names aren't supposed to kill by the rules. Martyn didn't harm Jimmy until the voice told him to forget the rules. Anyway, the voice is very intent on Martyn getting his life back--it is, of course, a life and therefore valuable on its own, but I do wonder if the voice also depends on Martyn as a vessel for survival and if that is influencing it too.
BUT, back to the subject at hand, Jimmy stole his life because ultimately he is SCARED. he's yellow and he has seen how they just lost Grian, and knows he's one bad day away from that being him too. He's one really bad day from being perma-dead. he was in the wrong, but....this is last life. everybody steals. and he's very scared. i can forgive it. i can forgive Martyn too for all his betrayal--that's how the series works--it's just very sad to me to see the two of them like this.
beyond that though, i just feel bad for Jimmy, because Martyn calls him an idiot. Grian later says "it's a good thing you're gullible." he's thoroughly tricked and left alone and maybe he deserves it but I can't help but feel bad. It's worth noting though, it was a good lie. Martyn (whether the cc realized this while he was doing it, i dont know; i'm writing from a character standpoint) specifically draws on their past history by referencing a business idea that's supposed to be a property police knockoff, and Jimmy has no reason not to trust him. he sounded genuine. Jimmy DOES have a tendency to be gullible and do things without thinking it through, but not necessarily in this case.
But even then, I would argue that while Martyn is lying, he's also somewhat pretending to lie. because he's betraying the southlands too. he's not lying about thinking the southerners are weak, or about being okay with leaving, but it's wrapped up in an overall lie--he has no plans to betray the southlands for Jimmy. (he will for Ren though...)
idk, i think there being truth in the statement is what made it so convincing. he tells jimmy he is an idiot for believing it, and later they go after jimmy again for being so gullible but like--it was a good lie. it had truth in it. and Jimmy was CONVINCED that Martyn wasn't loyal to them, even after being told that he was lied to. He tries to tell the Southerners that they should be mad at Martyn too for betraying them--but the southerners know Martyn lied to Jimmy. The Southerners don't know that Martyn didn't completely lie.
and that's the sad thing for me--Jimmy is right, Martyn isn't loyal. but Jimmy's mixed up what is lie and what was truth, and he thinks Martyn is disloyal for the wrong reasons. it's like he stumbled onto the correct answer by using the wrong formula. he doesn't know about Ren and the shadow alliance.
furthermore, I think that the reason Martyn ultimately voted Jimmy back into the alliance is guilt, perhaps. because he had just lied to the southerners about why he lost his life, agreed to be a spy for the Shadow Alliance, and completely betrayed them. and now he's gonna exile jimmy for betrayal, for stealing a life? i feel like the hypocrisy got to him a little and he voted for Jimmy to stay. Either that, or he still cares enough for Jimmy that he can forgive the fault. No matter what the case is, I think it's very interesting to contrast how serious he in the beginning of the episode with the fact that he actually voted to keep Jimmy in by the end of the episode. What changed? Well, he officially ditched the Southlands to join the Shadow Alliance, that's what changed.
in conclusion: i have brainrot and I'm sad

Fruits Basket Manga Review , ch 111
sigh~~~ I feel that my recent posts are a bit negative towards the anime, but thats cuz the chapters I’ve read so far are either unbelievably important character depth content cut for no valid reason or content in the anime but packed with million other things that it lost its purpose or importance. Basically tohu’s ep 6 which consists of 4 chapters & now ep 5 which is a momiji ep & yup, packed with 4 chapters as well... so, I apologize for any negativity, my intention is just analyzing artistic & story-telling aspects, I love se03, but yeah it screwed up lots of important characters due to its not so thorough plot decisions & harmful character insight choices.
today.. we explore Momiji... but only before his curse breaks.
Furuba anime struggling to know how to design an episode based on various plot-heavy chapters?
so, they decided 13 eps, & decided one ep for momiji cuz motoko’s graduation & the fanclub is the core of the furuba & have already cut tons of tohru, cuz who cares? she’s kind. be like her. end of lesson. No. really, jokes aside, how to do this?
How to combine several chapters in one ep? collect small snippets from chosen chapters/content like a bee does flowers? you gotta skip some content, you gotta highlight others. The ep is only 20 min after all & you got an op & Ed that you cant always skip.... so.. furuba team decide that momoji’s ep should be true to his zodiac animal, this is the rabbits last appearance in spirit. so, they went with quick hopping from one chapter to the other like a rabbit?
No really, ep 5 is really like a rabbit in its flow, you can’t savior a moment enough before jumping to the other: we learned momiji grew up!! loves toheu romantically, challenged kyo, really meant it, wanted a fair love game, got freed, lost tohru romantically & faced momiji! but that’s not all? we still have space!! quick add akito’s moodiness & love triangle with her dog & her submissive bed partner, add a happy comedy for no reason whatever & make shigue kiss tohru & wish shes 'was his lover instead!!!!!!!!! Mind you all this happened in the anime before shigure hurt tohru with his “the truth of the zodiacs talk & them accepting & feeling consolance that kyo is doomed”talk. 
-Gets whats my biggest surprise after reading this chapter ?????????
Shigure is consistent!! He isnt a rabbit hopping here & there. The dog is loyal & is tired for good reason! Him being depressed & his weird talk with thoru makes so much sense given the manga’s order.
Kyo is consistent!! In the anime, momiji surprise him with confession he loves tohru & challenge him, then kyo la~la~la~joins them downstairs for curry. Not a single expression on his face, where is the expression? it will appear when the plot is forced to address it: by the end of the ep when momiji face hin again. Then we get kyo’s reaction.
I need someone to tell the anime that actions require a reaction. You can refrain from showing a certain reaction if you can’t address it now, but you can’t erase it, negate it, then make it appear when have to!!!! couldn’t they make kyo refuse to join them & eat together? the     other characters wont be surprised they think he’s needlessly moody. The audience will know that kyo is troubled with momiji’s challenged & it will excite them!!! having kyo just go eat & watch the momiji/hiro/haru/yuki comedy skit is weird.
The manga’s author wanted kyo to join the dinner, like the anime did. but huge difference. the author actually cares for logic reaction & understands that the audience aren’t dumb little kids that will sit & wait for kyo’s turn to...react! nope! she did this: (a) & (b) below.
-Lost Small Bits/ Panels from the chapter.. But Sadly Big Huge Chunks for Characters buildup & Growth:
Tumblr media
(a) addressed the fact the hiro noticed kyoru is in love & dressed that shigure was right!! the cat being in love is a weird concept to the zodiacs! hiro reacted naturally & the author used hiro to flesh yuki’s (the rat), momiji’s (the rabbit) & haru’s (the cow) decision to silently watch the kyo (the cat) makes his own decisions to live!!! They won’t interfere or tell akito or remind him of his state as the doomed caged cat. So sad this moment is cut from yuki. Why must yuki only interact with kyo to beat him (all seasons)? why must yuki only think of kyo to envy him (all seasons) ? Here, yuki’s growth towards kyo as a person & his relationship with tohru is 1000 times better than all tohru is my mom’s sh!t & I envy kyo’s Sh!t we saw in the anime over & over till we memorized it.
Tumblr media
(b) kyo didnt just go la~la~eat with momiji after knowing he loves tohru. Nope, there’s small bits missing: called logical emotional reaction. He was surprised he’s caught pining over tohru! cuz yuki, the audience representative, has told us in the previous chapter that ppl in love dont notice anything around them. Kyo thinks him being cold hid his feelings. the dummy’s feelings are as bright as the sun in the Sahara, tohru too. a child read her! such small thing that wont take much space from the ep but was cut cuz kyo only needs to be responsive at the ep’s end. & this scene of kyo & tohru looking awkwardly at each other is minor in space but so important cuz kyo is determined to let go but his decision is challenged by not only momiji, but his natural attraction to tohru. Here he knows he’s caught & exposed... here he knows momiji is a better choice for tohru cuz he wont didn’t hurt her mom... here he knows that even yuki is better cuz never had to pretend to be cold to her... here he knows the world is better than him... & here he just cant help by smile & walks towards her... T_T ... another lesson in writing slow burns by Takaya-san.
Tumblr media
-Why would the anime team pass on this?? drawing kyoru closer after the epic tear in Cinderella ep, cuz they want empty suspense~! The anime team thinks that if kyo & tohru stand next to each other, then it means all their issues are solved & the audience are so stupid as to forget tohru’s mom, kyo’s imprisonment, kyo not confessing his sins to tohru & tohru’s need to make a choice wether to fogive hom or not.. nope! you see, they think, ppl who read mangas are smart, so the author can give this epic symbolism & pp would still be not sure kyoru is end game & tohru will forgive him or kyo even fogive himself, but ppl who watch, oh no, gotta cut all the plot worthy content, produce a graduation song for a minor character, cut all kyo/tohru interaction cuz it only means romance & not at all character depth & oh if we show yuki actually formulating deep thoughts that aren’t centered around him, the audience might forget his se02 struggles! or that might ruin yuki’s upcoming growth moment in the finale where he .. you guessed it hits kyo.. as he always do & sulk &  think abt himself cuz yuki can only do monologues when he’s directly involved.... man~it is so sad how the anime is dumped down.. Who is the target audience again? not kids as young as hiro cuz even hiro is smart!
-just look:
Tumblr media
 Momiji talks abt kyo shouldn't give up loving tohru & the authr shows this this ghost!!! his mom! The author reminds us that kyo isnt da~~~~ forgetting anything. He’s a deeply troubled soul & hos mom wants him locked cuz she too was locked in a cage & thinks that’s safer...why oh why you dump ur own story! sh!t~
Side Notes:
I like the closeups on Kisa’s face as she interacted with kyo. It’s very rare for kisa to have a world beside the endearing parental/big protective bro/big doting sister love she has with tohru & haru & off course the romantic love with hiro which was perhaps since their birth or sth. lol.  Kisa & kyo arent much on the brotherly side as they rarely interact, but its one of those  refreshing  interactions she has that helps cast a new light on her as tiny as it is,  but its sth out of the norm around her. She sees him  around tohru & gets to perceive his true unprovoked character. “He is  nice guy”.
I really wanted to punch kureno this chapter.. like Shigure is a jerk shitty dog for sleeping with akito’s mom but kureno... dude.. you submissively sleep with the guy’s eternal love interest & still walks in on him talking to her!!! lol. you’re mentally, emotionally & physically weaker than him & yet, she puts you on her bed, not him & you, tho not wanting her at all, dont walk away. No wonder shigure is defeated & wishing for someone like tohru, lol! Even if shigure met an older tohru-like person, it wont work. shigure deserve someone like him mean, schemer & loves playing power games. Tohru is someone who values honesty & commutation, not saying she’s an angel on earth, but tohru knows who suits her.. except fate is saying: NO. .... currently. lol.
I know kureno’s weakness is part of his character & I love that such characters exits. There are ppl ike that in real life. It’s just this chapter, I felt shigure’s frustration. XD
Yuki in this ep is the best yuki. no exaggeration here, I love when yuki is calmly thoughtful of others & here its kyo of all ppl !!!! cutting this scene is sad.. without it, kyo & yuki remain a cat & rat in the anime. Only ever thinking abt each other thro envious binoculars or hateful words or yuki giving kyo comedic hitting or life’s problem-solving hitting. Why can’t anime yuki be interactive outside his self-centered issues is beyond me.
Momiji & kyo’s interactions are always the best! whether comedy or drama.
I hated the curry cooking scene in the anime... so weirdly out of the ep’s flow.. very forced comedy... in the manga it had a purpose! not just quick add comedy cuz next shot momiji curse breaks & drama & we’ll close the ep with tears & sadness & glimpses of hope...
I love haru’s answer to hiro... so him.. “a guy can’t fall in love?”so chill.. so..simple.

12 Anti LO Asks
1. its victim blaming of hades to tell minthe its HER fault she "couldnt get over him". like? you lied to her! youre the one who blurred the lines to date her! you were just as toxic to her if not more so by controlling where she lives and her job, all while never defending her to your cruel family! you had all the power over her while she had nothing! you dumped her for a 19 year old and dont care she crippled minthe! i wont excuse minthe's actions, but hades is ultimately the worse of the two IMO
2. you know why fans claimed "Minthe should've reacted better"? since the first episode Rachel has been drilling into their heads Minthe is an irredeemable monster, and her not bending over backwards to H/P means she deserves the absolute worst. Minthe reacting how anyone logically would doesn't matter when LO is designed to coddle H/P, and anyone against them must suffer for it, even if the victim to H/P's actions. they never wanted her to be "redeemed", they want her head on a silver platter.
3. i know this is not what she intended bc the only characterization rachel has of hxp is "the best over everything" but uh, does she know having hades control all the petroleum and gasses and whatever else is actively destroying the planet, right? like hes helping the very thing persephone draws her power from and what she's connected to be destroyed to appease hes need for wealth and power. its kinda gross hes being romanticized while he commits horrible acts like this for his bank account.
4. its not impossible to go opposite in their original myth personalities and still have it work. like in hades game, sisyphus is one of the most likable characters, achilles is gentle and kind, ares is calm and rational, etc, but it makes sense within the context of the story. LO in comparison goes "all these loving mothers are evil because i said so! this beloved god is now evil because i said so! minthe is evil because i said so!" and that's about it in terms of logic to these wild changes.
5. I can kinda get behind anon's theory about the flower nymphs looking like P to help her be undetected, the problem is there are also unrelated women in comic who are bright pink and look just like her, with hades even confusing them for her! if i had to bet the only reason they look like that is because rachel just wanted daphne to look like her to hammer home apollo is "obsessed" with P and to fake them as her "real family" over demeter. also just laziness in designing characters in general.
6. its weird hades and persephone are well aware what they're doing is bad even openly admitting it and yet the narrative is so hellbent on excusing their bad actions?? like hades being the major toxic factor in his relationship to minthe, persephone killing people, or hades wanting to bone an eternal 19 year old? like rachel you know thats not how character growth works, right? you cant show they have horrible flaws and leave them to never grow and learn from it, that's not good writing at all.
7. what i also dont get is the hierarchy makes no sense? like zeus is framed as the top god, but that would mean hades cant be the most important man ever so rachel also made him equal rank with zeus (and i guess poseidon too) so?? how does zeus have all that power over them then if theyre all equal? is it because zeus swallowed metis?  also how are the fertility goddess so powerful and rare yet so easily taken down? how are they overpowered and super weak at the same time? i just dont get it.
8. Re reading chapter 144 and other anon is right we do see the pomegranate pin on Hades outfit (so Hades gifts it to her)
But also some things to note
During the makeout session persy begins to disappear in butterfly form and hades is like "no don't leave!" And he grabs her, preventing her from leaving. Which is..kinda Ick considering they were on their way to having (public) sex and he doesn't want her to leave which seems like he's not really respecting her boundaries? (because if she does he'll "be lonely")
The pomegranate pin is Hades' to begin with so technically one of Persephones symbols is not hers (yes I know in the original myth she ate it in the underworld / was forced to eat it but still its supposed to be her symbol)
Hades notes that he "doesn't want to overstep his boundaries as host" because Persephone is a guest (too late for that)
Persephones main concern (after what a week or 2?) after being raped is when Hades wants to stop her reaction is "dont you want me anymore?"
Girl you aren't even dating ...??
Persy's literal one and only concern is that she thinks if she doesnt sleep with Hades right then or when/if he wants to that "she wont be able to give him what hes used to" ... Which is reinforcing that she went to therapy to get "over being blocked" in regards to having sex
Although Hades does mention that she shouldn't feel like she needs to please him and that a kiss can just be a kiss which would be nice
(And yet his thinking of marrying her amd he's known her for 2, 3 weeks? ... And he says "the beginning of a new relationship is exciting and scary" so hes basically indicating thay their dating at this point, I think?)
And later the nymphs in the store are like "do you wanna be the dominatrix of the bedroom?? Buy this lingerie!" And persy does. So??
Meanwhile Demeter is very worried for her daughter who is busy sitting in Hades lap in a pool. 
9. Can we talk about how anons are making fucking flow charts for the LO Timeline cause it's so ridiculously jumbled?
10. im not even against rushed relationships, ive known actual couples who met and were married all within the same year and it worked out great, the difference though is these were people who had their own lives and previous relationships. the issue with LO is RS designed it so Persephone can NEVER have relationships or a life outside of Hades, and if they did get married offscreen, it's framing their marriage in a toxic and unbalanced light. That's not a romance, it's a disaster waiting to happen.
11. i feel like there's a difference between drawing an interesting hooked/aquiline nose versus whatever the hell RS puts on Hades' face. It honestly looks like he's in between morphing into a bird half the time since it just looks like a beak over an actual facial feature.
12. are there shareholders or a board of advisors or something at underworld corp? because if there is id say they have more than enough reason to kick hades out and strip him of his titles/shares because of all the shit he's caused by being guided by his broken pp over thinking with his head. liking dating TWO employees? and getting one of them phsyically crippled by the other bc he can't be honest with either of them and she's a walking time bomb? he's a walking HR nightmare.
