Hi there! I know you've collected the Nelvana dub, I see a few listings online saying they're selling the WB Kids/Nelvana dub with all 70 episodes! Is this true, or do you think these are bootlegs of the Animax NIS bluray dub? How many DVDs do you have in your collection? :D

Hello! To my knowledge the Nelvana dub has never been released in full, and any English language dub claiming to have 70 episodes is probably the Animax dub. It is however possible that the they are bootlegging, as all the episodes were dubbed by Nelvana and could be in the hands of someone making illegal copies. Ask them for a sample.

i just wanted to draw syaoran taking care of cats

and it somehow devolved into a 12 page comic that took me over half a year to complete due to my crippling procrastination BUT HEY I DID IT!!!! I’m pretty sure that if you look closely you can actually see how my art changed over the several months I was drawing this.

This was my first time drawing a comic on this level, and I’m really proud of how it turned out!! I love this series and I love these dumb kids, and I have a lot of other ideas for this concept that I’d love to draw in the future. (I already have ideas for a sequel to this oop)

If you want to help support me and help me keep making comics like this, then please consider reblogging this comic, commissioning me or donating to my Ko-Fi! I’m moving to NYC in April to pursue a career in art more aggressively, so every little bit helps!

Thank you so much for reading, and I hope you enjoyed the comic!!

I forgot they colored sakura’s hair ties the same color as her hair

Look at enough scenes and there’s little coloring errors everywhere

I don’t think tomoyo or eriol would be on this chart, they both know EXACTLY what is up at all times

Fairly Accurate. Although only as a direct result of Yamazaki telling them the Earth is flat.

huh that seemingly unpleasant task only ended up taking eight minutes to complete and was surprisingly satisfying, I may have erred in putting it off for two weeks.

Just fucking tag me next time there’s no need to be passive aggressive

Etymology of 蛇足:

In Ancient China, several men had a contest to see who could draw a snake the fastest. The person who came in last had drawn legs on his snake, which was unnecessary and idiotic.

You often see this word in business Japanese.

This is a Chinese Idiom I actually enjoy a lot and I feel this explanation needs a little bit more. In Chinese the full idiom is: 画蛇添足 (lit: draw a snake, add legs) which means "to ruin something with superfluous details" or "to overdo it"

"The story goes that 3 men challenged each other to draw a snake the fastest (most versions say the winner got to drink the last bottle of alcohol). One of the men finished his snake very quickly, but since the other 2 were still working he then added more detail to his drawing, including legs. When they judged the drawings, he was deemed the loser, because what he'd drawn was no longer a snake."

It's very similar to the English advice k.i.s.s (keep it simple, stupid), because sometimes you'll end up sabotaging yourself by trying too hard.
