Kamiina Botan's author Hey openly asked for an adaptation that takes distinct stylistic swings according to the lead artists every week, and episode #02 is undoubtedly Fugo's domain: solo key animation with no clean-up, unfiltered display of his body articulation to fuel the character acting
in other news i played moth x flame last night and it was very good. especially love the camerawork and scene direction… it really does feel like a stage production. made me think a lot about how i might wanna approach the visual side of my vns in the future.

i wrote an article interviewing 16 developers + me working in the toxic yuri visual novel space.
it took over a month and it cost me a laptop. my favorite piece of writing thus far. enjoy: bsky.app/profile/moth...
Great design makes a character a hit before the broadcast even starts, popularity rises even higher as she spends episodes being a funny deadpan non-participant in the story, effortlessly steals the show the second she acts. We kneel to Ruruka / Cure Arcana Shadow
Putting this here because it needs to be preserved

Fascinating cut that shows both the quirkier side & the technical soundness. Design sheets specify the level of definition (what is drawn, how, colors to apply) according to distance, yet you'll rarely ever see a cut displaying the full range. It exposes the artifice, but this team can embrace that
Chinashi's opening is the best pitch for Kamiina Botan, especially in its full & uncropped version. A series about college students mostly having a good time (and a good drink), framed with a handheld camera and so much preemptive nostalgia you feel like the cast ought to watch this many years later
what’s the issue benn, seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to do
needless to say crying rules will be there

I Work Very Hard, And I Would Like To Try Cake By A Horse Hello. I am a horse. I work very hard at my job of being a horse. When humans say move the heavy thing, I move the heavy thing. When humans sit on top of me and pull on my head, I carry them where they want to go. The main food the humans give me is hay and oats. But I am thinking it would be nice to have a different food. I am thinking I would like to try cake. Yes, yes. Cake. I know all about it. When humans eat cake, it is in glad times. It is the food for a celebration, such as when a woman becomes 47. I have seen cake on the Fourth of July. When humans have a cake, they stand around it and clap hands and smile and say happy birthday at each other. Sometimes there are beautiful markings on a cake, such as balloons or a pink shape. Sometimes the top of a cake is on fire and a boy must blow on the fire with mouth wind. This is the scariest cake. I do not want this kind. But I will eat any other cake. Any cake that is not the fire cake that tries to kill the boy. Please understand: I do not get money for doing work. I do not get to go inside the house. All I am either doing my horse job or standing in my pen or eating food off the floor. I always do these things. But I have never once gotten cake and I would like it very much. I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children. I am more helpful to the farm. Children do not move the heavy things like me or let anyone ride on them. And yet they get cake. Maybe the humans will realize this. Maybe they will say, "You know who deserves cake? That horse. That horse whose back we are always on." Every day I dream about what it will be like if I get to eat cake. Here is what will happen. First, I will walk to the cake and putt my nose at it like hrrfff to make and stomping my hooves to make sure it is not a snake. Then I will trot in a circle to show that I am a horse and I am large. After that, I will nuzzle the cake to …
The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me.
It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."
it’s no contest
setsuna continues to be perfect in every way. never done anything wrong. surely this is the message of wa2

getting called a regular by the crepe girl at the farmer’s market is one of the great joys in life
the roar of the crowd slams into sirius. blinding bright sunlight washes out everything around her, until she's left with just the too-green grass and the ringing in her ears. it’s all too much. her senses are still in overdrive; she can hardly bear it. but that doesn't stop a triumphant, elated smile from spreading across her face. she did it. not for her family, nor the hopes of others — for herself. an elegant pirouette, a bow to the stands. she didn't need a moon to shine.
a day late, but i wrote something for sirius's birthday🌠
