I find it strange that they changed the booze to food, but then decided (I guess?) that it would be strange if you were forbidden to buy them (which is how it is in Japan), so they changed it so you can buy them. my friend says an easier solution would have been to say "we're out of pork chops"!

😂 no one really, I was being silly, but ppl have pitied me when I've had to move in the past & had to bring all my stuff. The TVs I ended up with kind of by accident. 1 is my original from when I was a kid, but the other 2 I bought from thrift stores to help a local Anime con...then I just kept them

this is what it was always meant to be!!

remember, next time you're in Mannick's Restaurant (which is actually a bar) and you want to buy Musashi a pork chop (which is actually brandy) you shouldn't do that (Musashi is ten years old)*

*(the Japanese version does not let you do this)

💪😤

so already I have learned that if you start the two games at the exact same time, the Japanese one ends up lagging like a full minute behind just because it takes longer to say things in Japanese. so that's interesting (not useful for my particular needs, but interesting)

Jay I am sitting here in shock at the lack of Brave Fencer Musashi information on the internet & I'm going to have to fix it

& I'm baffled by this because I knew it was not a very commonly discussed game, but I didn't think it would be so bad that there aren't even scans of some of the characters??

for real! I love that he has no idea, either, he's just ten and that's fine

I've seen people do it with Disney animals!

Thank you so much!! it is so insanely fun to me, because I genuinely love these characters and I love to express their designs and personalities as lively dogs!

Musashi /might/ tolerate a hug. he's quite a bit kinder and more polite in the novel for some reason! Kojiro, no. do not hug.

truthfully I have never been so on my bullshit in my entire life

Thank you!!! I am happy to have art to post, I have been so super busy!! although I guess this one is sad because i was motivated to draw it because her actor passed away 💔

"What business has a dog with a cane?"
it has a sword in it, obviously

anyway, r.i.p Catherine O'Hara 💔

p.s. I'm (slowly) translating the BFM novel (#1) right now which led to me using the Japanese guidebook to help me identify enemies/character names easier to compare them to English & I just saw this & uh?? (translation is automated through my phone but it is accurate)

She is! but I wish she had her own whole game 😂

Oh my god so incredibly so, yes!! I am replaying the Layton games now (I'm up to game 2!)
