GOD I FUCKING HATE THIS SHITTY FUCKING SCHOOL AND THEIR SHITTY FUCKING PEOPLE.

I’m just sitting here, waiting for an appointment

and there’s a million people before me, and not ONE MOTHERFUCKER had the decency to be like HEY, THERE’S A WAITLIST, WRITE YOUR

FUCKING

NAME

DOWN.

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I SHOULDN’T EVEN NEED TO WRITE MY FUCKING NAME. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE ADVISOR THAT I​ PAID FOR WITH ​MY​ FUCKING MONEY, NOT SIT IN HER FUCKING SHITTY ASS OFFICE FOR TWO HOURS TO WAIT FOR OFFICE HOURS JUST TO GET MY CLASSES ENROLLED, WHICH I WOULDN’T HAVE TO DO IF IT WEREN’T FOR THIS ​SHITTY FUCKING REGISTRATION SYSTEM​ THAT WON'T LET ME ENROLL IN THE FUCKING FIRST PLACE

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

so in the meantime I'm drawing Neko Atsume characters on my tablet. None finished yet but here's one of the many that I did yesterday:

And here's the whole album of stuff I've done so far:

Otherwise things are actually pretty good. I'm getting sleep post-surgery with my CPAP now that I'm not choking to death on it, I'm reenergized at work to the point that my boss even pointed out a noticeable​ difference, I'm going to motherfucking Japan and Seoul, I enjoy videogames again even though I still spit on the culture and all it stands for, and kleinbl00 whispers drunk secrets into my ear in the wee hours of the night while still being able to recommend quality anime to me in the process. What a guy!

I love you (for the Neko bit).

Hey, actually, since you're here and I know you like anime, what's your opinion on Starblazers? I see it's on Hulu and I hear it's supposed to be a classic and my wife has really gotten me interested in science fiction. Is it any good?

YOU MEAN SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO MOTHERFUCKER!?

SBY did what Gundam did before Gundam was a fucking twinkle in Tomino's eye. It's the seminal mecha anime and imo one of the best. Also, when I watched it in Egypt the translated title was Nusoor Al Fada'a, which translates to fucking Space Eagles, the most badass 70s name for a series EVER.

That being said I myself haven't watched Star Blazers, which is just the edited/dubbed version of Space Battleship Yamato, so I can't comment on its quality. If it's even a fifth as good as the Japanese version, it's probably rull good, tho

It's going on the list. :)

Draw a Gundam. Chibi style. Make it uber kawaii.

I understand not one of the nouns in your post. That is unusual for someone like me.

And I don't mind at all. There are things I Just Don't Need To Know.

user-inactivated  ·  2938 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Yeah. I only half understood what I just wrote. Anime isn't my scene. But I basically asked him to draw this . . .

in this kind of style . . .

and make it look extra cute. :)

That Samus is channeling my love for 90s animation real hard.

I miss Anime before the moepocalypse :(

user-inactivated  ·  2938 days ago  ·  link  ·  

I've only seen Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Teknoman, and a handful of Gundam (all 90's stuff). I'm currently watching Patlabor on Hulu right now. I like it. It doesn't seem overly dramatic like I hear some anime is.

So, what's Moepocalypse?

user-inactivated  ·  2938 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Your taste is solid.

The Moepocalypse is when anime stopped looking like this:

and started looking like this:

between the late 80s and the early oughts. It's shitty but also easier to animate and, more importantly, merchandize

Ah, when it started looking like Yugioh.
