@wen-wang Yup I saw hehehe (don’t mind the no-follow from my art twit, I keep it separate from main and I followed on accident rip)

I think I do remember (vaguely) the names you guys go by, so I’m ok without the site, more of like for newer people who don’t have a ‘don’t follow if (dfi)’.

My carrd was finally simplified ahah.

Some info regarding my kyuranger gif(sets)

I wanted to let you all know why lately, Kyuranger/Spada gifs are uploaded so late and not as frequent compared to before. Technically nobody commented on them being late and nobody asked for an explanation but for the few who will bother to read this I wanted to explain some things...

The thing is, there’s a lot of shit going on at my work, a lot of really stressful things.. I can’t go into too much detail because of privacy reasons (and for legal reasons if things really decide to go south...) but basically, my boss is deliberately destroying everything me and my colleagues put a lot of effort into building up and there’s nothing we can do about it...

All of these sudden changes that I have no control over is really frustrating, stressful and messes with my head. 

Being at the job I used to love now drains my energy faster than anything else I’ve ever encountered so some days it’s really hard to muster the energy and motivation to make gifs by the time I get home (especially the kyu gifs take a lot of time to make..)

Now, I will continue making them, don’t worry! I don’t know what the future brings and this whole situation at work is probably gonna last for quite some time so it might even get worse but I made a promise to myself that I won’t stop making gifs altogether. 

I didn’t intend to make this so long so pizza and cookies to everyone bothering to read it all but I hope you can now understand why the gifs are late/less frequent lately and I hope people are not too upset if this pattern continues for the unforeseeable future.. 

Sorry guys.

do you ever find your old oc that never got the spotlight or any character development and feel really bad for them because even if you try to give them some love now you can’t quite wrap your head around what you should do with them anymore

I’ve just watched Inazuma Eleven: Orion no Kokuin

I’m reviewing as someone who has knowledge of OG anime (watched parts of) and also Ares no Tenbin.

Here it is, some thoughts (maybe a rant?) under the cut. Not spoiler-free, by the way.

I feel that these are the things that come out good:

Balancing the appearances of the Ares-only and also what I OG characters. They managed to balance out the number of characters in InaJapan, inclusive of the 5 extra additions. 

Combined Hissatsus of both old and new characters, some of my favorite examples are:

Kamakura Dimension (Mizukamiya, Tatsuya & Nishikage, I absolutely love this Hissatsu, sadly it was only used once)

The Asura (Endou, Saginuma & Nishikage, tho this outcome is kinda weird)

Ggg Senjou no Aria (Aphrodi, Kira & Iwato)

Penguins the God & Devil (Haizaki & Kira, if you’d consider Kira as an OG (dead) char).

Hyokketsu no Gungnir (Shirou & Atsuya, leading to third pt)

Hyokketsu no Gungnir, perhaps an answer to OG Wolf Legend but now with both brothers together.

Characters have developed from Ares to Orion (e.g Our Ares trio to where they are now, Atsuya to now work with others, etc).

Most of the new characters (also other teams) are pretty compelling, some are...just ok I guess. But my reactions to them are mainly positive!

Also, characters faking foul play. That was insanely fun to see lmao, thanks Mizukamiya for the idea.

Now onto the downsides:

Team balance. As much as I like number 1 of the good side, it comes with this downside.

4 goalkeepers? (Thanks for the comment, Saginuma)

Many forwards...honestly out of the 5 extras, the only defender that came in was Mizukamiya. There are 3 forwards (Aphrodi, Atsuya, Kozoumaru) and 1 goalkeeper (Norika).

The balance on the defenders' side has been lacking and with Shirou’s departure, it goes for the worse as the number of defenders is only enough for a starter team.

Saginuma didn’t have a debut as a solo keeper, either (Might as well replace him with Norika...not a good opinion, I know.), Nishikage...not much. I understand putting Endou in and I absolutely like him, but sometimes it might be good for him to be on the bench for the other two/three goalies to shine.

There’s a need for more successful defense-based Hissatsus. I absolutely like Ice Ground, the Wall, and Spinning Fence, but as far as I remember, if you compare their appearances to the strikes, you’ll kind of see it. Zone of Pentagram didn’t even succeed! But then it’s a good sign that you’re doing more shots so I guess that’s the take.

More Hissatsus in relation to point number 2 for the positive side! Or that’s just me, but I’ll like seeing more characters working with each other, tho honestly with 50 episodes that’s gonna push it.    

Also, OG combination techniques (e.g The Hurricane, tho that’s because the two are put to the defender position but you know, a defensive Hissatsu from Shirou & Kazemaru might deal nicely) might be nice. But then that’s kind of pushing it as well since there’s a need for the new characters to shine.

You gave Ichihoshi OG Shirou storyline and it’s finished in maybe 12 episodes. Just why. 

Kozoumaru could be done better. Enough said.  

Shirou pulling a 007 on us is also on the next level, but it’s not properly defined. 

I love him but why? I’m pretty curious about the reasons he struck the deal with Shinjou, after hearing about his reasons to fight Orion. Yes, one of the reasons I’m positive about is to protect the team. Also, why did Shinjou seek him out in the first place?

How did everyone in InaJapan react? Did Atsuya or Asuto reveal/told the team anything when they learn of this? I have no idea. Maybe not cause as it wasn’t revealed to InaJapan at all before he returned.

It’ll be fun to see him go down to InaJapan halfway during the Orion match going ‘surprise bitch, I’m back’ after being released, which I think he did behind the scenes, if not he’ll not be in the final photo of InaJapan. If they can do this with Fudou then why not?

And, that’s about it. Just some random ranting, just take it with a grain of salt because I’m still pretty new after only watching it a little when younger so there might have been things I’ve missed.

It’s still a good watch though, I enjoyed it loads and it got me hooked! That’s for someone who isn’t the largest fan of sports anime since maybe...Kuroko no Basuke (KnB) so I guess there’s that.

Anyway, if you have read until this point, thank you so much. Have one of my favorite screencaps!

Hey Guys

I have a really bad habit of dropping out of nowhere. Without warning. I’m really sorry for that tendency, but it just happens. ^^’ My muse decides to take a very long break sometimes, and I haven’t been very active on this blog as much as I should have been. For that, I’m really sorry. xD But I think I’m back now! My last exam that I really need to worry about is this upcoming Wednesday, so I should have a bit more (sort of) free time to go about on this blog! So sorry for being absent! Good to be back tho!
