Everyone is fighting a tough battle so reblog to give previous a sword 🗡️

[what-even-is-thiss]

I hate when I get two problems in a row. They’re all gonna think I’m making it up.

Reminder that continuing to mention a character’s injuries and how they impact their mobility, pain, thoughts, etc. moving forward is one of the coolest things you can do as a writer.

in 2026 DO NOT ask yourself whether your art is GOOD

instead ask:

is it SINCERE

was it CATHARTIC

was it FUN TO MAKE

is it MADE BY ME

and don't forget to stay silly

animation being treated like a genre instead of a medium is something that actually makes me go insane. beauty and the beast is a romance. the emperor's new groove is a buddy comedy. big hero 6 is a superhero movie. moana is an adventure film. the lion king is a drama. treasure planet is sci-fi. if i was talking to someone who hadn't seen these movies before, and they weren't specifically interested in animation as a medium, then i wouldn't necessarily assume they'd enjoy all of these. and that's just disney movies! try telling an anime fan that fruits basket and fullmetal alchemist are the same genre and see how they react!

Sometimes I wonder if I’m ever missed by those who don’t speak to me anymore.

the emoji combo throwback is killing me. like you just had to be there when new seasons were airing LMAO. anyway yes obviously nate knows, i don't think there was even a doubt cause it wouldn't make sense otherwise.

i've been learning over time that when i watched S5 at the brand new age of 15, there were actually a lot of 10y/o kids doing it too. i never thought about it this way yet. even if preserving the show with these methods was popular AND (totally hypothetically) endorsed by netflix (lol), it'd still be so unlikely to reach the mainstream audience instead of only niche internet fandom spaces. whether we're talking about now or half a decade ago, it's peaked in terms of widespread recognition. that's incredibly depressing.

[brunch-box]

I wrote these tags bc when She-Ra was ongoing, I initially refused to watch it because I thought it would turn me gay. Watching S5 was instrumental in getting me out of conservative Christianity, out of my homophobic self-loathing.

I remember reading some cute autobio comics from a preschool teacher’s aid, where one kid asked her “Is it true that you’re a lesbian?” And when she said yes, followed up with: “Have you seen She-Ra?”

If shows like She-Ra aren’t legally accessible, then young kids won’t be able to watch them. She-Ra has done so much good and to watch it be removed from Netflix’s listing out of corporate greed is so heartbreaking for queer kids.

REMINDER THAT LAIKA’S FIRST FILM SOLELY PRODUCED BY THEIR STUDIO HAD TWO FEMALE CHARACTERS AS THEIR ANTAGONIST AND PROTAGONIST WHO, BY SOME FORM OF DEVIL MAGIC, HAVE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FACES

REMINDER THAT LAIKA’S SECOND FILM NOT ONLY CONSISTED OF A CAST WITH FOUR CENTRAL FEMALE CHARACTERS BUT INCLUDED AN ENTIRE TOWN OF DIVERSE CITIZENS OF VARYING RACE, GENDER, AND AGE. LIKE A NORMAL TOWN HAS.

REMINDER THAT LAIKA’S THIRD FILM FEATURED SAME SEX COUPLES IN THEIR TEASER TRAILER

REMINDER THAT THIS IS ALL STOP-MOTION SO EVERY CHARACTER WAS DESIGNED, MODELED, SCULPTED, RIGGED, AND EVEN HAD TINY CLOTHES SEWED FOR THEM.

also reminder that they make chump change compared to disney who whines and cries that in all their years of experience they can’t handle the prospect of animating a girl with a face different than the rest and that it’s “too hard” because only females can express such a wide range of emotions that it makes them difficult to animate

if a studio with 20-30 years of experience can manage this then SURELY an established studio with NEAR 100 YEARS of experience can maybe, just maybe, include a female that ISN’T a part of their formula

[sailormilk-blog]

LAIKA !

[beetlejuicesgf]

Also paranormal had a canonically gay guy in it just saying

[onwardsmynoblesteve]

I feel the 16ft tall skeleton from Kubo certainly deserves a mention

[ruffboi-mags]

Laika are goddamn ARTISTS and MASTERS OF THEIR CRAFT. Look at the animation on Kubo and tell me it doesn’t feel more like CGI than stop motion sometimes because it’s so smooth.

I love them so much.

IT WAS REALLY THAT BIG

People should make more doomed by narratives siblings relationship.

Like with lovers you can just sever it and not have it related to you ever again but with siblings how could you?

You grow up with them you raise them or they raised you you both know how unforgiving the world is to both of you? You would die for them but will hate them for doing the same and yet none of you would regret it and both of you know it. They could be the person you loath the most and miss the most cause you still remember how they sneaked a candy into your hands. You can sever the tie but you can never look away at what you've lost, at whom you've lost because fate doesn't allow you to be together, eating dinners in quiet peace, if only there's another life, another time, where i can make you another plate of pancakes i would im sorry im sorry im sorry —
