Sol Yulaan meets her human doppelganger in Royal Woods, Michigan
And later, Sol Yulaan and Sol Yuta encounter... similarities
So I don’t watch the Loud House much, if at all anymore. Its style of humor is just a bit too juvenile and spastic for my tastes and I’ve largely moved onto kung fu & wuxia movies and old ‘70s grindhouse shlock. But I still do enjoy myself a cartoon goth like Lucy, and Lincoln’s okay.
Again, wasn't intentional at all, but I thought about it and realized the surface similarities between Lincoln & Lucy vs Yulaan & Yuta. Brother and sister; one has pale skin and raven black hair that covers her eyes; the other is a boy with white hair.
Heck, there's even some inverse going on here. Lincoln wears orange; Yuta wears blue (the inverse of orange). Lucy's a human who wants to be a vampire; Yulaan is a Yaban, which is kind of like a vampire. I mean, they do drink blood and have fangs. Though they also have monkey tails and superhuman strength.
In the context of this image, I imagine it being that Yulaan's in Michigan with Vicente looking for the Michigan Dogman and investigating the Lake Michigan Triangle when she happens upon Royal Woods and sees a human girl suspiciously similar to herself. Of course the similarities are only visual, though it's not like Yulaan wouldn't get along with Lucy. What's the difference between goths and barbarians anyway? One loves the dead; the other loves making things dead. See? They're perfect for each other. Actually, canonically, Yulaan does get along with some goth girls in Little Miss Savage: the sisters Jex and Mir, and Mir's friend Renae. Not to mention that her Yaban best-bud Ura Kevelnege adopts a gothic style on Earth. And for a brief time, Yulaan herself becomes a gothic Nadsat droogie during the events of “Goth Devotchka.” So actually, it makes more sense than you think.
If I were a bigger fan of the Loud House/were 15 years younger, maybe I'd do something more interesting with this.
I wonder how Lucy would feel seeing someone who looks so much like herself, except is some buff, Saiyan-like primal monkey with electric hair and battle-scars everywhere. Let me guess: "Sigh."
Also canonically Yulaan does have a human doppelganger— one Zhang Chenxing from Jiangxi, China. But this is just a spot of fun.
