Happy 30th Birthday The Vision of Escaflowne! (aka. it's escaflowneweek, y'aaall)

Everything began when I secretly watched MTV on Wednesday nights on the TV in my parents bedroom. Later recorded some episodes on VHS. To say that those VHS tapes barely stood still would be an understatement.

Escaflowne was and still is my favorite anime of all time. It has its flaws (like everything has) but it is just so beautiful. So heartwarming and dramatic. And so so full of love for classic animation. AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE SOUNDTRACK!

It was just a matter of time when my first Cosplay from Escaflowne would come to life. Hitomi was a not planned but I'm happy I realized her outfit. And Millerna was just a coincidence...but one I am incredibly happy about <3 (I'm still hoping someone will cosplay Dryden for me q7q)

Thirty years ago, in 1996, you could have caught this on TV Tokyo, young Maaya Sakamoto introducing "a new show" called Tenkuu no Escaflowne, where she voices the heroine.

Four years later, in 2000, you could have caught this in a Japanese cinema; the full theatrical trailer for Escaflowne (the movie), a dark fantasy retelling of the story.

We will be celebrating the 30th/25th anniversaries for these two throughout this year, inspired by Japan, where it's being celebrated with a new BD release (here's the trailer for that), renewed movie screenings and a bit of new merch.

And we will be using this little logo for the related posts. Just to tie them together visually a bit:

You can already see it in the prompt post of the @escaflowneweek that STARTS TOMORROW! Check it out please, if you haven't!

And more is to come, soon!

“Viktor. It was stupid not to tell you about the nosebleed, but… I'm asking you as your friend… as your partner. Talk to me.”

A plea for truth. And Viktor's face suddenly dropped all its masks. The dean's gaze wandered to the hands in his lap.

“Humans are strange mechanisms, Jayce. So many ideas and decisions and dreams and desires grow within them that you can only guess at when you look at their outward appearance. At the same time, this mechanism is so fragile and breakable…”

Dangerous Wishes

I visited German Film & Comic Con last Sunday and decided to wear Hitomi again. There was a specific reason though...besides that I really like wearing her. The german voice actor of Van was a guest at the event and so I went to get his autograph as Hitomi ♡

It was so nice to talk to him and he was really happy to see someone dressed as a character from a series that aired on german TV more than 20 years ago (2001/2002).

So: Thank you Björn Schalla for your time and the quick chat ♡

Silco remembered seeing graffiti sprayed on a wall when he was a young man. Some hopeful soul had written “The greatest thing we can do in life is to find the power to forgive” in large, colorful letters, shouting it out to the Undercity. Surely a desperate fighter for peace between Piltover and Zaun.

Silco would have liked to spit in his face back then.

In fact he would still like to spit in his face now.

Zeitgeist Chapter 8

“What I really want to say is… thank you, Professor Giopara. Since you came back, I've been less worried about Viktor.”

Jayce's eyes widened. He felt his heart beating faster and almost feared another migraine attack.

“Oh? And why is that?” he asked.

“He smiles more often.”

Zeitgeist Chapter 7 Update

"Everything okay? You look beat," he said calmly as his gaze slid back and forth between the table and his partner. “And you smell of sweat and burnt hair,” Viktor countered without making a face and drew a line under a number combination.

Jayce ran his hand along his chin and only now realized that his beard was a little scorched. Perhaps he really would have to part with his new companion if he was going to continue working at the forge. “Touché”

Zeitgeist Chapter 6 update

“V-viktor? What is all this?” the latter finally regained his speech and caught up with his partner, who was walking a few steps ahead of him.

“Zaun”, was the curt reply, but Viktor himself seemed to realize that something was missing ”We'll talk in a moment, when there's some quiet around us. Be patient.”

The fact that Viktor would even utter the word 'patience' baffled Jayce almost as much as this new Zaun around them. But he was a little relieved that Viktor could finally afford this luxury of being patient.

“Finally...” Viktor growled, relaxing his shoulders with a circular motion of his upper arms before leaning back on his cane “It's been like this since this morning. I loathe bureaucracy.”

“I know,” Jayce said, amused, and then realized that his friend didn't mean the academic rumor mill ”...what kind of bureaucracy? Important academy things? Something for the council?” “Your papers. Or do you want to get into trouble with the enforcers as soon as you're on your own and can't identify yourself? Fortunately, I know a few people in my position to shorten the process but the paperwork is...” Viktor replied dryly ”...deeply tedious to say the least.” “Once again, you think of everything.” Viktor's back received a satisfied pat. “I do what I can, Professor Giopara,” the dean joked as the two friends slowly left the academy grounds and stepped out onto a larger, busier street.

Almost a little startled, he traced the sharp, rugged features of the man staring back at him from the reflection.

There was something bitter and deep in the wrinkles around his eyes and the fine scars on his lips. Nothing was left of the youthful thirst for discovery of a student or a proud councillor. Too much had happened for that. He knew too much for that, by now. There was no turning back anymore. But maybe instead there was a way to settle down in this timeline and just...live. Happy and at his own pace. Viktor had managed that too, hadn't he? At least Jayce hoped he had.

But when all thoughts consist of nothing but questions, where to start? Jayce decided against asking about things that had to do with their old timeline. After all, he didn't know what state Viktor's soul was in at the moment. So he tried the most obvious.

“How is it that it's you who's the Dean of the Academy and not Professor Heimerdinger?”

“Am I interrupting?”

Jayce would have recognized this voice among thousands. That very specific accent, which even after all this time he didn't know exactly where it came from. The relentless curiosity in the tone, paired with something mocking. And then that very sentence. What irony. A few specific words that had set everything in motion so long ago. The ones that had saved Jayce from himself.

“Viktor...”

He couldn't get out more than a whisper, the feelings that had just rippled through him were too intense, like a stone that had broken through the surface of the water. Jayce couldn't help but stare with his mouth agape. This Viktor looked so different from the images of him that Jayce's memories were forcing into his mind one by one. But it was clearly his best friend standing there only a few meters away.
