Nielsen argues that anime fans are more than an audience; fandom in anime is a behavior. It's highly engaged across streaming, gaming, merch, and social platforms. They act more like a lifestyle community than passive viewers.

Have I gone too weeb when my first thoughts watching "The Testaments" are this this could be an anime and it kinda reminds me of "Sanda"?

From 8 years ago. The hand of the Maestro Ricardo Villagran inking on a page by Mimi Simon. A lot of history here. Ricardo inking at his old desk in my studio now occupied by Mimi who I was mentoring and using one of Al Williamson’s old lapboards he gifted me from his EC comics days. @mimisimon.com
Illustration art of a child drawing their dream world. All this while, I've been mostly drawing what my son loves. This time I decided to take some time to think and draw what my younger self loved. I don't think we're that different though! We both love insects, birds and dragons.. Drawn digitally in Procreate and Photoshop
Happy April #kidlitartpostcard day! I finally got a firmer grip on my deadlines so I can make personal art again 😭
I am interested in books and other kid-related projects!

When is someone going to come up to my convention table and tell me "Wow that's a great grouping of figures! I love the overlaps!"?
Edwin Austin Abbey - Dirge of the Three Queens A stylized, painterly scene shows a solemn funeral procession moving from left to right across a dim, open landscape at sunset. Several robed figures—mostly women in long, flowing garments and veils—carry a coffin on their shoulders. The central figure, dressed in a deep blue cloak with gold accents, walks slightly ahead, her posture dignified and mournful. Behind and around her, others wear pale or earth-toned robes, some with hoods obscuring their faces. One figure carries a flag with a faint emblem, while another appears to play a wind instrument, adding a ritualistic feel. The coffin is draped in patterned fabric, and a cross is visible among the mourners. The sky glows with warm orange and pink tones near the horizon, fading into cooler blues above, contrasting with the darker foreground. The ground is rough and shadowed, with expressive, sketch-like strokes emphasizing movement and emotion. The overall mood is somber, ceremonial, and symbolic rather than realistic.
URNS and odours bring away!
Vapours, sighs, darken the day!
Our dole more deadly looks than dying;
Balms and gums and heavy cheers,
Sacred vials fill'd with tears,
And clamours through the wild air flying!

I thought this problem was only in America. I always bring earplugs to protect my ears.
Glad to see people calling out the real grifter this time instead of the messenger...
Jane Baer has died at 91. A titan, she worked on 'Sleeping Beauty,' co-founded Baer Animation, supervised 'Roger Rabbit,' and advocated for her fellow artists. Few careers trace the evolution of late-20th-century American animation as completely.

My life is just working, taking walks, cooking and watching olympics right now.

My love as deep. The more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite."

"'I have found you wine!' Now she had found not wine - but Passion and Joy most sharp, and Anguish without end, and Death.
The Queen drank deep of that draught and gave it to Tristan and he drank also long and emptied it all."

I don't think that's true. She's rather imprudent about sharing her opinions but I don't think she's a bad person...
Hmm, I mean hard to say if the products will be garbage until they actually arrive. Harry Potter is perennially popular so it's probably a good business move unless they do something really stupid with it...
it's blocked so tldr?

Anyone else think Frieren looks more like she belongs in 1960s Paris than in a medieval fantasy world?
