    I would contribute the token male on male piece, and it'd either be Yagami Light and L, or Firo and Ladd Russo from Baccano. One would certainly get hits, the other would just be delightful (even though it's likely none of you know what Baccano is).
    In this interpretation, Faye Valentine is completely unchanged.
    I lol'd. nerdy animu knowledge for the lulz.

    Yeah, I thought the same thing, and that's its fault. The first episode really just should be ignored as a non-episode, or a ridiculous prologue that just is the last scene after the next 12 episodes. It's definitely worth it from episode 3 on. Kind of absurd, but it has some awesome hilarious and crazy characters, one of whom has this existentialist view that he can't die because the world is in his head and kind of just does whatever he wants, and another guy that kills people for absolutely no reason, which feels like a commentary on anime/manga in general, because they're both self-aware of these traits and talk about them at length, rather than it just going by and being like "ok, look, crazy villain who's a villain for no reason."

    Like hell I will. Saturday night the cover on the dishwasher was broken, so it was basically like being sprayed with a hose the entire night. When taking the dumpster out, the garbage chute was clogged, so I basically needed to stick my head and shoulders inside to pull the bags out, which being stuck prompty ripped so I got garbage and garbage juice all over me. Plus my angry supervisor seemed angrier than usual, and since it was majorly busy I didn't leave until 11:30pm.

    Fuck.

    That.

    Shit.

    what are some concrete subject matters I can use for daily practice that involve drawing from imagination?

    I am tired of self portraiting, and it makes no sense because I am significantly better at drawing from life than I am from imagination anyway.

    the only reason I want something concrete to study (like DO 1 SELF PORTRAIT A DAY, DO A PAGE OF HANDS A DAY, etc) is because it's easier for me to stick to when I have goals to meet. it is slightly depressing that I need to force myself to practice but if it works, whatever.

    So what you're saying is that Baccano is just like every other shitty pseudo-philosophical anime tripe that's out there?

    Because we can't have a crazy murderous villain without also having him stop to give boring as shit monologues every 10 fucking minutes about it. Because anime villains are very self-conscious and need to validate themselves in the middle of every climactic scene. Because the Japanese don't know how to tell a good story.

    Oh no, what have I said.
