I rarely love something enough to do fan art these days. Yoshiki and Hikaru’s queer horror lives rent free in my head and working on this piece was restorative for me during a stressful time.

It will be in iridescent foil for otakon!

Yoshiki protectively yet desperately holds the back of Hikaru’s head as Hikaru leans into him and oozes from the eye and ear. Hikaru smiles fondly as his rainbow ooze embraces Yoshiki, but Yoshiki has a pensive expression as he gazes up at a wilting sunflower.

We managed to make it in time despite the crazy BLACKPINK traffic. So worth it!

I bet he thinks he nailed it. Can’t imagine that Amuro can smell the desperation on him.

I love how he is so roundabout and toxic to get him to come over and then is really earnest about being grateful when he gets there. What an absolute mess. 💙

No matter what happens tomorrow, we all know where this will inevitably lead.

The Illusion of Free Choice meme, one side reads "GQuuuuuuX stuck the landing", the other side reads "GQuuuuuuX fumbled the landing." Both sides lead to the same destination that reads "Somehow 2 more years of G-Witch ending discourse."

With just a little work, CCA could have been over in the first twenty minutes, no asteroid drops needed 👌👍

While the GQuuuuuuX finale can make or break the themes they set up, I still think it has been a really fun watch!

Lots to enjoy or critique every week, gorgeous to look at, memes and essays, etc. Even if the ending disappoints me, I’ve loved the ride.

I have been saying for 2 years that Gwitch was masterclass at what to prioritize & deprioritize given the limitations of 25 eps.

People constantly graded it from an expectation that “it should have been 50 eps” rather than grade it against the reality of shorter modern anime productions.

nobody can complain about g-witch s2 pacing (including myself) ever again

I’d take some politics with a focus on restorative justice, but yeah.

The closest thing we have is the near-future AU manga about touring Japan, but I doubt it’ll progress all the way to their marriage.

Sorry I’ve been so slow to re-up all my old twitter stuff. Now that my foot is broken maybe I’ll have time haha.

Great writeup!

I also appreciate that you’re less declarative and more speculative in your analysis. It’s refreshing.

Good luck!
I have a 10-20% lifetime recurrence risk, but I try to think of it like the weather. When it says 20% chance of rain, I assume no rain. When it says 80% rain, I assume rain.

Also: “80% chance is fine” means that if you end up in the 20%, it would be found early & would be more treatable.
