matoba and a character i invented for my fic walking side by side and smiling, as if mid conversation. yukina, on the right, is a young woman with a short ponytail and a stylish little outfit. she's gesticulating, has black painted nails and little dangling earrings shaped like knives.

sketch of natori and matoba leaning on a railing, natori is facing away from the viewer, smoking and annoyed and matoba is leaning backwards with a smirk on his face, peering at natori.

two sketches of natori looking stressed and smoking.

some stuff from my current fic wip!!!!! ruining natori's life!!!!! matoba is doing normal which is to say, of course, weird and not quite right, but having fun despite it

something you almost remember #whaspoilers

- and the ways that the use of paneling and space can be manipulated to invoke emotion within readers and how layouts and positioning can illustrate character and how style can illustrate feelings ET CETERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

maybe i'm just a little hater but when people go "oh i can't wait to see this animated" or "i NEED to see this animated" about a manga i'm seriously like what are you talking about lol. sorry for loving the way comics illustrate movement, time and tension within panels on a page and between pages -

idc if it improves upon what already existed within the manga or even invents things that add additional depth to the original story - that's great, that's not the point 👍 the idea that a fully published and realised piece of art is a "lesser" draft that an adapted version is purely offensive to me

[boiling with barely suppressed rage] when will anime fans understand that manga is a fully formed and complete storytelling medium and that an anime adaptation is not a necessary addition that "completes" or "fulfills" some sort of lacking element that manga does not provide

shit to make you cranky on a sunday night: just saw someone refer to a specific adapted anime, of which has no creative involvement of the mangaka whatsoever as the "final draft" of said manga series

my 💛 audience 💛 everything i do is for you guys. well everything i do is for the service of my imagination but secondary after that if for you guys

posting for a niche fandom on tumblr is actually awesome because i know every single person who will rb my natsume fanart, what kind of art they will rb, what ship/characters they rb, and the way that they feel about those characters because there are only like 20 of them

i 💙 my jeans

there is only one hope for humanity- the synthesizer

<- cringe loser obsessed with driving. foggy nights low beams on under the speed limit windows open in the suburbs cold air music loud!!!!!!!!!!!

and the lines as well because i like em. shinobu you're so sexy!!!!!!!

a digital illustration of matoba shinobu from natsume yuujinchou, standing behind her own younger self who is sitting, posed for a portrait. she's covering her younger self's eyes with a hand and generally menacing and looking like an evil hot lesbian. the piece is inside an ornate portrait frame.

happy shinobu saturday!!!!! let's give it up for being an evil dyke!!!!!!!!!!!

summer and autumn darters look the same, but theyre different species #TheSummerHikaruDied

lrt tears in my eyes i miss you harry ord

I totally forgot about this lmao

"do you hate yourself"
"yeah sometimes"
"I thought so" [punch]

it was! 😌

and no one in the whole world except for me will ever know what i wrote 💛

just did some analog blogging (wrote five pages in a journal sitting at a park picnic bench)

maybe you guys should watch every single episode of natsume yuujinchou and you'll understand me!!!!!!!!

[struggling childishly and petulantly against my restraints] i don't want to watch any contemporary shounen media!!!! no!!! you can't make me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tell them to watch mob psycho 100!!!!! i won't watch chainsaw man i don't want to!!!!!!!!!

always funny to me that my brother and his wife have extremely similar interests to me but are ALLWAYYSS just slightly misaligned from each other. i'm not going to read or watch csm or frieren i'm sorry. they should try getting into my interests instead. ever heard of 2009 bl manga the cornered mou

aw that's lovely!!! a spider companion for you both 😌

i think it's really important and valuable to have a spider that lives in your home and even better in one specific room which you can see on the ceiling and go "it's my spider!" and think of it with fondness and mutual respect

🥰

lets get erotic!

favourite part of these

happy friday night lol

doing whatever with these guys
