it’s time we talk about one of the most important parts of a great horror game: the creepy doll

the haunted dolls in silent hill F and bloodborne, in particular, are the most perfect chariots through the underworld

i’d be lost in the nightmare without them…🕊️

www.gamesradar.com/games/silent...

The best part of Silent Hill f is also my favorite from Bloodborne, and it has nothing to do with "Soulslike" combat

Opinion | It's not always a haunted doll, but it's usually a haunted doll

Like just barely for me. I liked the narrative throughline of pacifist hero basically doing the same fish out of water stories as the bebop crew while all being more connected as a narrative than one offs.

Really appreciate that the question is intelligently asked as well, not dumbed down out of an assumption that a Japanese person wouldn't know what "ethnocentric" means. Refreshing stuff.

Also, Makoto Yukimura said trans rights.

io9: Your portrayal of Indigenous and transgender characters—like the Lnu tribe and Cordelia—stands out in a media landscape where such representation is still rare outside of series like Golden Kamuy, Skip and Loafer, and Paradise Kiss, where they’re often mishandled. What impact do you hope these characters have on expanding the narrative terrain? How do you see your storytelling challenging the ethnocentric lens that dominates much of mainstream media when it comes to that representation?

Yukimura: I did have written characters in [Vinland Saga] from a marginalized ethnic group [and] who are LGBTQ featured here. I actually wanted to portray a character with a disability in the story, too. However, because of the setting, I really couldn’t find the right place to incorporate such a character into the story. One thing I really don’t understand, though, is why do people attack such folks? Is it because they’re different? Why do they just focus on bad things about these groups and generalize them? I truly don’t understand why people do such things. I plainly feel sad when it comes to the way people treat each other.

To me, it’s quite normal for people to have uniqueness. It’s almost needless to say that we all individually have a uniqueness that might be considered different than what is the majority. For example, I grew up in an era where higher education was considered to be the most important thing in society in Japan. You almost had no paths in life outside of that structure. I actually do live outside of that structure, and I’m living perfectly fine. I really want to say that uniqueness is okay. I don’t understand why people are making those judgments to say, “This is okay, but this is not okay.”

I haven’t really thought about what this type of storytelling or character would have an impact on society at all. I’m just writing, drawing, and portraying society as I see it and what I think is normal from my eyes in the manga. If people don’t agree with that version of what I think is a normal society, then oh well. (Laughs) That’s too bad. Those people don’t have to read my manga.

I was so deadass about getting a clean image of the poster that I went into the website's source code to get it. For whatever reason the Twitter post's is grainy as hell.
