I still donāt really get how the homunculi were made like when creating Envy did Father look at a lizard and say āyou know what Iām gonna put into this? Sinā
The idea based on a message I got few days ago :ā) and uhhhĀ i forgot to write in the bubble that itās made from his ex automail arm..Ā
i spent 40 actual minutes of my life just on making this meme. why am i like this
Drawing hyperrealistic faces in Hidan really make me laugh lol
Kichijoji Dake ga Sumitai machi desu ka?
So I found a really awesome manga today???
Itās calledĀ āKichijoji dake ga sumitai machi desu ka?ā or, roughly, āThe only town you want to live in is Kichijoji?ā and is by Maki Hirochi
Itās about two sisters who work do real estate in Kichijoji, Tokyo
Theyāre both fat girls, but as far as I can tell so far, they arenāt fetishized or are the butt of a joke???
Theyāre both super cute, and drawn proportionally and realistically, seriously I canāt think of the last time I saw a manga with fat girls as the main characters/protagonists, or if I EVER have period.Ā
AND THEY LOVE METAL/HARD ROCK?!?!?
LIKE WOW IM IN LOVE!??
Also the stories are all just really sweet, itās basically just the sisters helping people who come to their real-estate agency find the perfect home, like, itās really cute and sweet and good?Ā
Also it has a live-action drama going on rn which is super exciting!
Basically, I donāt know if this story will get more popular or if the manga will get an English translation, but I was just super hyped about this and wanted to share ~ <3
Wow, thatās a rarity.
The counting song
I almost turned it off in the first 3 seconds, Iām glad i sat through that.
Amazingly innocent and dark at the same time; I love it.
Well that escalated quickly.
otakuflonne reblogged your post ānuclearcarrots: donalducks: nuclearcarrots: alright but Free! official art will never be as gay as Gundam Wingā¦ā
āget backers ok I NEED to find out what the hell get backers isā
YES YOU DO.
Itās ostensibly about these two guys, Ban and Ginji, who run an agency that specializes in retrieving stolen/lost items (soā¦getting them back lol). That would be interesting enough, but they both have kind of super powers; Ban has the ability to make someone see an alternate reality of his choosing for one minute (and heās also super strong), and Ginjiāor as he was once called, the Lightning Emperorācontrols fucking lightning. Ban is smooth and cool and Ginji is a happy-go-lucky fun guy, and they both have tragic pasts but are focused on their business in the present.
It starts of kind of generic case-of-the-week getting stuff back, usually with humorous ends as the guys are flat-broke and keep trying to build their business and get rich quick. But things start to pick up very quickly as you meet characters from their pasts when they take on particularly dangerous jobs, including the pretty much canonically a couple Kazuki and Juubei:
(IIRC Kazuki was initially going to be female, but for some reason the mangaka decided to make him a male character, but his relationship with Juubei was never changed and so now theyāre just super gay?)
Yeah.
BUT thereās lots of great characters and the story gets REALLY GOOD and it gets REALLY GAY like UNDENIABLY GAYā
(I mean thereās too lovely ladies in some hot getups right behind them but Ban is just fondling Ginjiā¦)
jfc I mean
Hoot dook, indeed!
And if that wasnāt enough, it also has a phenomenal voice cast, too! Canna Nobutoshi, Morikubo Shoutarou, Hoshi Souichirou, Ogata Megumi, Saiga Mitsuki, Koyasu Takehito, and more :DDDD
SO PLEASE GO WATCH. Itās not super long, maybe 50 episodes? But long enough to get really interested in :3333
iām such in a fma mood lately
iāve already finished watching fmab with my sister and now iām rereading the manga and these are actually my first fma fanarts everĀ because in middle school i just copied panels and pages
