One of the best advice I've received when it comes to watching/playing things in Japanese is that you should not expect to understand everything. It used to frustrate me that I would have to look up every single kanji I don't know, but you can get by and study kanji when it feels the most necessary.

タカアシガニ様が通る。 何度描き直してもイメージしたものに辿り着かないから描くのやめた絵。アナログ難しいな。後でデジタルで描き直そう。

I think people who grew up playing Pokémon Blue should discriminate against people who grew up playing Pokémon Red because it would be funny.

Some day I want to make a short comic set in a Swedish school, but all the students have Japanese school uniforms and it's a stereotypical school as seen in manga. But would it be better if it had the backstory of a weeaboo billionaire making this happen, or if it was just never ever explained?

My legacy

I like when character have yellow hair, not even blonde, just straight up yellow.

Finished Heike Monogatari and man what a fantastic show. Stunningly beautiful, and such a great re-telling of a classic tale while bringing in original elements that feel meaningful. I also love when historical characters get treated like real human beings and not just caricatures.

Miku cornered in a downstairs room. I can hear someone coming down the stairs. It's Neko Miku. We exchange blows, but finally, we both refuse to deliver a killing blow. The storm engulfs us, and instead, we sing and dance. We heal each other and then go seperate ways. Fortnite is good, guys.

Watching Dragon Ball makes me want to exercise. I get it now.

Hatsune Miku charging her teal car at the gas station. The stereo is blasting "Undone (The Sweater Song) by Weezer. She steps out of the car, unsheaths her blade, and takes someone out in one blow. Back to the car, blasting Weezer. Fortnite is a good game guys.

All this "year of the snake" art has convinced me that snakes are immensely cute

Redrew a Dragon Ball screenshot for fun

I have been too harsh on ketchup

Basically I learned recently that raccoon dogs have existed in Europe since the 1900s because they escaped fur trade farms. Now the idea of mythological tanuki trying to blend in with European folklore spirits is on my mind. Needs to be a film some day.

me if I were a tanuki

My vibe for 2025 is that I am becoming a tanuki.

I'm just saying, the twitch username "yourdad_vtuber" is freely available. Anyone could make a vtuber who's entire gimmick is that he is your dad.

I used to frequent a sushi place all the time and order the same thing. One day I decided "actually, today, I am going to order something DIFFERENT." So I went there and the owner looked at me, smiled and said "Hello friend, the usual?" And I could never order anything different again.

It's my birthday, which means I am forcing you to listen to Tatsuro Yamashita to celebrate ME www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDQ6...

Spent forever trying to understand a cryptic message and all it said was "Mattias do you know gods of death love apples." Fucking bullshit. I'm never going to solve this Kira case!!!!!!!

This holiday season your bald friends might be feeling down, but you can make them feel special by using their bright bald reflection to light the christmas tree

My music taste is "nerdy shonen j-rock"? Yeah, well, ok, fair

I want to play Earthbound, but I'm afraid I'll become an indie gamedev

I'm still caught offguard by English dubs being quite good nowadays
