Happy World Frog Day! Here are the Bullrush Frogs and a bit of info dump about them <3
They were first released in 1991 for the UK and then re-released in 2001. So there are Tomy and Flair versions, as well as a release in the US, which has slightly different clothes and sitting/crawling twins. The Tomy clothes for them are similar to the Urban Life era, being a bit fancier. Official Bios (this one cracks me up):
FATHER WALTER BULLRUSH is known for being very, very lazy, but this is not really true. If Walter likes to do something, he will put all his limited energies into it. He will always be ready to drive the Country Bus for instance, he will even get up early in the morning if you need a driver. Fishing, of course, is his main love, that is, dangling a hook in the water. He does not like to catch anything because if he did, he would have to then find something else to do. Walter has found that by singing at the top of his croaky voice he can frighten all the fish away! His singing also frightens everyone else away, so he spends many a happy, uninterrupted afternoon on the riverbank singing and sunning himself.
MOTHER LYDIA BULLRUSH, unlike her darling husband, is always working and working very hard. She runs a beautifully spotless house and cares for her husband and four children, and that full time job is only a small part of her busy life. Lydia has a passion for wicker work, whether it is making baskets, hats or mats, her workmanship is imacculate and very artistic. Collecting bulrushes, dying them bright colours before leaving them to dry in the summer sun is the only job she gets any help with. Algy, her oldest son, enjoys the summer afternoons down by the river helping his mother whilst she enjoys teaching him to weave.
BROTHER ALGERNON BULLRUSH hates his full name, so everyone calls him Algy, even his mother who does not like nicknames and only does so, because it pleases her wonderful son. Algy, like his mother, has a passion for weaving, but unlike his mother he prefers to create impractical items like wall hangings. He claims these items he creates are art, not picture art like in art class at school, but abstract art where the shapes and colours portray the meaning and message. Lily his sister says he gets these strange ideas from reading too many stuffy books.
SISTER LILY BULLRUSH loves to sing and unlike her father has a beautiful voice. Because she is a little shy she does most of her practising down by the river where everyone avoids going because of her fathers singing. She originally wanted to be a pop star but now wants to be an opera singer because people go to see the opera all the time. Pop singers only have concerts when they have a record in the charts. Ottilee Marmalade is also giving Lily tips on how to be more confident, hoping she will overcome her shyness.
BABY BROTHER MOSES BULLRUSH must be about the only little boy in Sylvania who loves having baths. He spends hours and hours in the bath playing with his rubber duck and other bath-time toys. If only Lydia or Walter had more time, he would spend all day playing and splashing around in the tub.
BABY SISTER IRIS BULLRUSH must be one of the cleanest little children in Sylvania, because she just hates having baths, so therefore never gets dirty. When ever it is her turn to have a bath, she just cries and cries, then bawls her eyes out and splashes about until her parents get her out of the bath. Bath-time in the Bullrush household is always rather nerve racking!
*having trouble finding official photos so here is one from Sylvanian Store Keepers and the rest are my family who dont have the right clothes lol
<3 In my town Mr. and Mrs Bullrush are renamed Sunnypatch and they are co-mayors of Sunnypatch Gardens.

First saw one of your videos in 2018, I think! When Kai'Sa was released... lol. I was so looking forward to her release, but finally seeing her design completely soured me on it, and none of my friends saw a problem with the discrepancy between her character's Premise and the design's Visual Language. Naturally, I looked for like-minded people on the world wide web, and found your video! It articulated Kai'Sa's main issues better than I ever could and was cathartic to me. Been subscribed since then. 😊
Kai'sa is like 90% such a great character, and then 10% a collection of the single most wrong-headed character design decisions you could possibly make to communicate why she is such a great character.
"I am a horrifying monster, everyone naturally shuns me, I am alienated from humanity! They will always hate me for what I have become!" broods the supermodel in the skin-tight bodysuit with perfect makeup, immaculate hair and no scars, who very occasionally wears a slightly spooky helmet.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the official announcement comic they juxtapose her sculpted, perfect ass and objectively gorgeous face with an angsty monologue about how her awful outside appearance will forever leave normal people in terror of her terrible visage. In the official announcement.
The artist who did the splash art for Hollowspun at least had the good sense to try to dial up the strange textures and fucked up geometry of the suit to make her look weirder and more insectoid, so that it is at least moderately visually plausible that someone would be repulsed and terrified by her appearance.
Tumblr media
There's also the sensible basic visual storytelling idea of "oh hey what if instead of showing her entire and obviously normal human face we intentionally cover it up so it creates the kind of scary visual implication that she is imprisoned within her Void armor? That her humanity is a thing smouldering under an inhuman surface, repressed and hidden away by a decade of lethal peril?
And that maybe Kai'sa actually actively pushes people away and tries to frighten them because she's terrified that she can't protect them and facing the prospect of losing her entire community to the Void again is simply to painful to face?
AND WHAT IF WE PAIRED HER UP WITH THE GIRL WHOSE WHOLE ENTIRE THING IS FOUND FAMILY AND LOVE OF COMMUNITY???
WHO REACHES OUT FOR HER EVEN THOUGH SHE IS ACTIVELY TRYING TO BE HOSTILE???
What if we did that instead of juxtaposing a perfectly sculpted ass in a spandex with the words "maybe someday they will accept what I have become"? What if that?"
... anyway, I have extremely normal feelings about Kai'sa and her story and her character design. I have thought about this a normal amount. For legal reasons I am not planning to throw rocks at Riot HQ until they release more Kai'sa/Taliyah stories.

Call me an obsessive purist, but I think that everytime an old game gets ported or republished it should come with some means to emulate the original hardware on which it was supposed to work not only in terms of console but also the screen on which it was displayed originally. We are so, SO used to seeing old pixel art games as being just a mass of pixels on a screen that you can count with your fingers, because in modern days there are few attempts to emulate that original CRT look that would blur and blend the pixels to give a softer image and even create some unique effects
It's especially bad with portable games, as those were originally meant for very low resolutions but then get blown up to HD and they look like jumbled messes of pixels, sometimes oversaturated too if the console of origin was not meant to have a backlit screen. Harmony of Dissonance is the poster boy for this: how many people go around saying that the game looks like a clown puked a bunch of colors on a screen because they don't know it's supposed to be viewed on a darker GBA screen that would darken the color pallette?
Honestly, yeah. Many GBA games, mostly early ones, look outright garish without a proper shader: I'm also thinking of Metroid Fusion and to a lesser extent Zero Mission and Sonic Advance 3. And by now, the effect of pixel blending in games like Sonic 1 and 2 (the waterfalls looking transparent) and Symphony of the Night (Dracula's eyes glowing red) are relatively known.
But yeah, no official re-release seems to care. The Megaman Zero/ZX Legacy Collection doesn't compensate for the colors, but it has instead this... smoothing effect that looks downright awful lol. And even Mania clumsily tried to replicate the CRT effect, but IIRC it only made the screen harder to look at.
They really do add to the experience. In some cases, sprites were colored to look 3D with a CRT effect, but we can't enjoy the result of this effort because it just looks like splashes of color with raw pixels.
something something the belief that modern pristine perfection is the way when flaws stemming from old technology actually add to the experience

Got any rambles on Kaf's eyes stored up?
no but i got a ramble on kafu's eyes close enough
it's so funny how they can't keep kafu's eyes consistent. like okay kaf's eyes have changed in palow's recent art but that's a stylistic decision by him that he made after years of drawing her probably to spice things up. with kafu they haven't been able to keep her consistent since the beginning and it's really funny. all of the following kafu eye depictions are from early on in her existing/not a new development
her official box art:
Tumblr media
three rings, very similar to kaf's eyes but ever so slightly different with the pink dot and the pink ring thinning out at the top. still though pretty obvious these are just kaf's eyes with a different splash of paint. personally when i draw kafu i make her eyes look like this because i appreciate the mirror imagery shit she has going on with kaf
her concept art (also by palow):
Tumblr media
okay this one may not have made it to the final stage but i'm bringing it up anyways because for reasons you'll see later it may be part of what causes the confusion with official kafu eye depictions. no white, just one inner yellow pupil and a pink highlight on blue. okay
edit: clarifying palow did post this to twitter as a reference sheet but i'm assuming this is an earlier draft of the box art regardless lol
her official 3d model:
Tumblr media
lmao i caught her on the most empty brain frame okay they really just took all the creative liberties here and i kinda wonder why because this model is in the style of kaf's model, they could have gone full mirror imagery and just color swapped kaf's eyes but the shape is still the same so whatever. regardless i actually really like these but they aren't like any other official depiction of her eyes?? the pink has been moved to a curve/highlight at the bottom of the iris and they just spawned some neon aqua-y color around the white pupils LIKE okay guys awesome
various other official art (this is from the early isotope 4koma):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
these are just straight up kaf's eyes lmao. i do kind of wonder if the yellow being present in kafu's concept art/reference sheet is part of the reason that this has happened multiple times other than simply Well She's Kaf But White Hair. for the record the 4koma draws her with white pupils now like her box art. btw you may have noticed that despite her hair diamond thingies being open in the other eye examples, they're closed here. that's also a thing that changes all the time don't worry about it
honorable mention of the kaf/u cover arts:
Tumblr media
this one doesn't really count? it's official art because kamitsubaki hires kisumi rei specifically to illustrate all the art for the kaf/u covers on kaf's channel, but kisumi rei loves to take artistic liberties and also draws kaf's eyes "wrong" for the sake of their art style which always has black pupils. it's worth mentioning though
for the record i just find this all super interesting and my autistic ass likes hoarding information, i'm not bothered by this and in fact them not keeping kafu's eyes consistent could very well be on purpose because of the whole vocaloids are whatever you want them to be thing, even their official artists and whatnot should be able to take creative liberties fuck it go wild

in your 'Would she spare them?' post, is the art under the cut official or not :o ?
I'm GENUINELY surprised it fooled a lot of people believing that its real! (which is half of my intent whenever I draw them anyway lol)
Unfortunately its not. I kinda wish Artificer has more endings than the ones we got, but at the same time that would probably defeat the movement of her bittersweet arc.
Keep reading if you want to see a part of the process but also spoilers for downpour (obviously)
I do tend to do a lot of wishful thinking and blissful ignorance to the bleak reality of the game, as it made me depressed once and I cope with drawing the scugs in more positive light (especially arti who is also my favorite one out of the bunch). Call me Weenie Hut Junior for when it comes to these kinds of stuff.
Then again, I did have a drawing in an au where she gets killed by her babies who were manipulated to join the Scav King's side. Uh. Ouch.
Anyway, I had to study the art style to really make it convincing. But most of the splash art in the game shift gears with the subtle things a LOT. (though i cannot blame them if the original artist either forgot how to do their own style completely or hired a new team of artists to recreate the style; or well, it was their own decision to make some more distinctly stylized than the others). I define them in 3 different ones. (so far)
The first one being that it has a crayon texture, mostly. Less blending but its still present. We can really see that in Artificer's promotional, as well as survivor and Monk's selection screens.
Tumblr media
(Notice how bristly the scavengers are.)
The second being that it has a crayon texture but blur blending is more prevalent and there's some more gaussian blur applied for background/foreground elements. We see this mostly on passages and several splash art.
Tumblr media
(Although the blending is smoother than the previous style, you can clearly still see the texturing on the lizard's head)
Then the third is straight up smooth as heck. Mostly found in sleeping splash art and some other title screen art. It loves utilizing the gaussian blur a LOT to give more depth to the slugcat and its surrounding elements.
Tumblr media
I would go for an in-depth tutorial on how to copy the styles, but I'm not really one fit for a detailed one per se, let alone be comprehensive skdfsafd
As long as you have the basic shading and lighting principles and the correct brush shape with texture (i use a blocky crayon texture one), you can probably pull this off if you practice.
Here's one I did where I attempted to draw the three styles on one of my RW OCs The Associates. (which the discord server seemed to like lol)
Tumblr media
Oh yeah, videocult can TOTALLY hire me to make more custom splash if they wanted to. I felt like Rivulet and Spearmaster needed because their campaigns were lacking that for the most part. (and by an extension, Artificer too, as her cutscenes are just in-game) (pspspspsps come come)
I'm really itching to make more in general in the future. Its genuinely fun to attempt to copy the style of the game, which I love, as well as seeing the occasional reaction by people believing that these are real (either accidentally or for if they want to believe so they can be happier).

Arcane Newswatch - Day 558
Tumblr media
Please note that we are aware that Riot recently provided a spotlight of various community artists for Pride, and that one of the pieces of art shared showed Caitlyn with a lesbian flag on her hat. However, we here at Arcane Newswatch have concluded that, while the artwork is fantastic and wish-fulfilling, this does not satisfy our standards in terms of official confirmation. A tiny lesbian pin on Vi’s waist in official LoL Pride splash art is concrete evidence, albeit the necessity to zoom in to see it properly wasn’t great; a lesbian flag on a piece of community art, however, does not qualify as concrete evidence to us. Trust us, when Caitlyn gets confirmed as whatever flavor of gay she clearly is, we will be the first to freak out about it. But for now, we will continue waiting and simply enjoy the artwork for what it is (and I do highly recommend checking it all out, the artists did a magnificent job)
This has been Arcane Newswatch

Genshin Impact OC Profile
Nova Astrafel | Cosmic Kitten | 5 Star
Nation: Fontaine
Vision: Hydro
Weapon: Catalyst
Role: Healing/Support
Design and kit details included below the cut
Design Details
Ancient Nova Design (1,500 years pre-canon, 500 years post Archon War)
Tumblr media
(art source)
Amnesia Nova Design (attire in the present before her memories are restored)
Notes
All gold accents actually silver
Navy gloves
The top half of her shirt/coat resembles Lynette’s collar/sleeves more closely in design, perhaps with her Vision situated at her neck instead, and no boob window for my own comfort and preference lol
Back of dress/corset is the brown ruffles, follows similar color scheme to the rest of the dress (navy/indigo) and maybe even some starlight accents throughout layers
Definitely starlight accents on any silver trim, like it’s overtly sparkly and kind of glows
In an official reference she’ll probably have random bows and frill thrown in here and there throughout the design as embellishments because I can never have enough
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Restored Nova Design
Notes
Actual Fontaine Vision at neck, pseudo representative Geo Vision on chest
Outfit made for her by Zhongli as a gift after her memories returned and they reunited T-T
Tumblr media
(art source)
Kit Details
Talents (may add proper titles for all aspects eventually but they’re not imperative at the moment)
Normal Attack: strikes with the power of Hydro in a fashion very similar to Mona with some extra cat traits sprinkled in, 5 consecutive attacks.
Charged Attack: Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to deal AoE Hydro DMG after a short casting time, takes the form of Nova summoning a horde of Celestial Familiars (these art examples tend to be how I imagine them: link | link | link | link) to strike a single target at once, dealing incidental dmg to enemies in their path as they lunge forward.
Plunging Attack: Nova imbues herself with the power of Hydro, taking the form of a falling star as she plunges towards the ground, damaging all opponents in her path. Deals AoE Hydro DMG upon impact with a shower of sparks, leaving a superficial crater overlay that quickly fades.
Astral Pulse (Elemental Skill): Nova sends out Celestial Familiars (design referenced in Charged Attack info) formed from Hydro that each run up and pounce on their target in a unique way, dealing Hydro dmg and exploding in a splash upon impact; marks nearby enemies and allies with a Pulse Paw, heals (allies) and deals dmg in an AoE (enemies) at set intervals based on her max HP.
Fount of Stars (Elemental Burst): Nova summons a shimmering rain of falling stars in a set AoE, provides full heal to all allies standing within the AoE and applies Hydro to all within it as well, dealing dmg to enemies.
Abilities and skills scale on HP.
Her ascension stat is healing bonus.
First Ascension Passive (Passive Talent 1): Increases Nova’s healing bonus by 20% of her max HP.
Fourth Ascension Passive (Passive Talent 2): Every ally marked by a Pulse Paw becomes a satellite healer for nearby allies for 15% of Nova’s HP for the duration.
Exploration Talent (Passive Talent 3): Displays the location of nearby resources unique to both Fontaine and Liyue on the mini map.
Constellations (Stella Nova - New Star, probably mimics the form of a Celestial Familiar too)
First Life: Innocence (Constellation 1): Reduces the elemental resistance of enemies marked by a Pulse Paw by 20%. 
Second Life: Transformation (Constellation 2): When activating Fount of Stars the skill will create an additional ripple upon casting that deals Hydro dmg based on 25% of Nova’s max HP.
Third Life: Trials (Constellation 3): Increases the Level of Astral Pulse by 3. 
Fourth Life: Void (Constellation 4): Increases Fount of Stars AoE by 20% and extends the duration of Astral Pulse by 5s.
Fifth Life: Determination (Constellation 5): Increases the Level of Fount of Stars by 3. 
Sixth Life: Homecoming (Constellation 6): When Nova takes lethal dmg, this instance of dmg will not down her. (The effect this passive takes is of a Geo seal that flashes around her body pulsing out from the center in a way that mimics Zhongli’s elemental skill, not Hydro because its Zhongli’s seal of protection.) This effect will automatically trigger when her HP reaches 1 and can trigger once every 60s. Also: even when in the party and not on field, Nova can auto revive a fallen teammate to 100% HP once every 10 minutes.
Miscellaneous Details
Adeptus Title: Starweaver
Adeptus Form: a black panther with a pelt imbued with starlight; a fluffy black cat with a pelt imbued with starlight
Summon Screen Splash Art: Nova in her Restored Attire frolicking in starlight with a lunar backdrop and three or four Celestial Familiars playing around her feet, as well as one batting at her tail.
Signature Recipe: Cosmic Kitty Crepe (variation of inevitable crepe recipe we’re sure to get in Fontaine)
Signature Weapon (Best in Slot): Adeptal Astrolabe, a device Cloud Retainer made for Nova as a gift to celebrate her Adeptal ascension
“A complex device meticulously designed and crafted by Cloud Retainer as a gift for a fledgling Adeptus. It gleams with the radiance of the moon reflected on the mountains in the still serenity of night. Flecks of Cor Lapis dance a dazzling display within the contraption’s sterling glow.”

I was bored so I did this thing. It's just pixels but I 'm sure you can recognize them.
Tumblr media
I can never choose just one favorite.
The first banner I actually wanted to pull for was Kazuha's first banner which I got Jean. (As well as Kazuha)
Yes, I did get the Wanderer and that first Qiqi won't stop me. Also for most wanted, they are the ones I want that I don't have but the ones I was really desperate for were Kazuha, Wanderer, Xiao, Nahida, Cyno and Ayato. Literally looking for more primos after losing my pity with at least 2 of them.
Those are indeed my favourite weapons. Fight me lol. No surprise with anemo being my favourite.
I would post this on my hoyolab acc but nah cuz laziness.
Idk, if it's necessary to mention but just in case, I don't own the art nor the template. Thise are the official splash art of characters and I can only wish I can do art like that.

I’m 13-years-old Kinoshita Ai. (Kinoshita Ai 1st blog)
Hello everyone! It’s nice meeting you.
I’m Kinoshita Ai from Boku ga Mitakatta Aozora.
Tumblr media
Thank you for taking a look and wanting to read my blog.
Given how today is my first blog, I’m going to briefly introduce myself.
The official profile is…
Birthdate: the 19th of August, 2009 Place of birth: Tokyo, Japan Blood type: O Height: 152 cm Personal colour: Brevet Winter
I’m the tiny youngling in BokuAo, and maybe because of my age (13-years-old), the members treat me like a total baby.
Every one of the members is so cute.
I’ll become cute [just like them] too, and one day, maybe I’ll look back fondly to these times lol
However, all the members seriously are really kind and funny, and even on their days off, they send me videos and photos of their faces!
I love you all so much! Gimme a hug! (ぎゅ[う]) ♡
My hobby is visiting museums and art galleries, although I go by myself on my days off (which can get a bit lonely).
I particularly like Ueno [district in Tokyo with a rich culture] and Odaiba [a popular shopping and entertainment district in Tokyo Bay] where there are many such facilities.
Ueno is famous for its zoo, but there are also many cultural facilities, ranging from art galleries to museums, from science museums to the International Library of Children’s Literature.
Every time I visit these places, I discover something new, so I want to go there again and again.
Somehow, when I visit such facilities, I feel like I’ve been to places that make me feel more relaxed… or…. like they’re my power spot of sorts!
Now I want to invite a member to go with me!
Would anyone be willing to come?
I often go to Odaiba with my friends.
It’s certainly a fun place to visit again and again. There are segways as well as skating facilities, you can enter the English Experience Village, you can visit the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation and even Fuji TV.
During this summer holiday, I want to go to Odaiba Adventure King with my friends again and eat the ice cream we usually have together~
There, I want to hear BokuAo’s ‘Aozora ni Tsuite Kangaeru’, the theme song of the Odaiba Adventure King 2023 Summer Splash, many times、、
And Odaiba is also a place of great memories, as it is the location where our unveiling took place.
I will tell you about what happened at the time of the audition in my blog someday.
Overall, I think there are still lots of fun spots in Tokyo.
I really want to visit places that I’ve never been to, with both my friends and the members, so if you have any recommendations, please let me know!!
Oh, by the way, have you been able to read the August 2023 issue of B.L.T.?
There’s lots of detailed information about me, so if you haven’t read it just yet, please take a look.
I also got to see an unexpected side of the members, and I’ve read it all at once.
I truly recommend it.
I am surrounded by really, really kind people and I very much enjoy being a member of BokuAo.
All in all, I want to make my loved ones happy, all while maintaining a sense of gratitude!
To all of the fans, all of the members, staff-san, friends and everyone involved, I’ll be in your care!
As long as I’m BokuAo’s Ai, I won’t lose to anyone, but once I start talking, I quickly go on for too long, so that’ll be it for today.
I would like to communicate various things from now on, so I hope you will keep taking a look at my blog, SNS and will continue lending me your support.
I look forward to meeting each and every one of you one day.
Please continue supporting Boku ga Mitakatta Aozora.
Thank you for reading all the way to the end.
