I Cried When I Read Those Chapters In The Manga.

I cried when I read those chapters in the manga.

Just imagine how alone and lost she must have felt after losing louis.

she was blaming herself for not realising sooner, just as Noe was.

They were both experiencing inexplicable guilt for not be able to save louis in their own way.

Domi resorted to change herself to look and speak like her twin when she came to terms with how important louis was to Noe.

She, all throughout her life, subjected herself to the torture of thinking 'What if it was me instead? why couldn't it have been me?'

She hardened her personality and is overprotective of Noe for the very same reason.

She doesn't want to face the fear of losing her childhood friend due to her not being there for him.

This understanding just breaks my heart every time.

But I cant help thinking that both Jun Mochizuki and Yana Toboso,

created such complex and broken characters by giving them dreadful pasts and without a break they have to keep surging forward to reach their respective goals.

It's terribly sad.

But their writing is so wonderful that even though the characters are all imperfect people who are just holding on to their humanity, a shell of their original self, they are able to show glimpses of undeniable acts of kindness and acceptance.

Both these creators or authors have their stories in an extremely dark setting wherein even the most bright and pleasant memories can be otherwise seen and morbid and vile.

Of course it is interesting to read as a viewer but from the point of view of the characters it's miserable.

that's why readers often find themselves wanting to save characters from their demise or hope to save characters' childhood innocence and stop them from turning despondent.

Oh, fun VnC fact I see no one talking about:

As a kid, Domi uses the first person pronoun "私" [watashi] which is typically gender neutral/feminine. Kid!Domi in the latest chapters/episodes also uses it.

As an adult, Domi uses the first person pronoun "僕" [boku] which is typically masculine.

I'm letting everyone here imagine when and why, exactly, she made the change.

obviously for the cat.

What did you expect lulu?

i absolutely love these guys so much..

Doodled them, this was way funnier in my head LMFAO

for future reference

SUBLIME CINEMA #460 - PAPRIKA 

One of the coolest dream movies, along with Waking Life - it’s a mind bending animation of great invention and detail. Legendary manga artist and animator Satoshi Kon gained many admirers during his relatively short life and career (he died right after this film was finished); he carried in his work the tradition of great Japanese artists like Takeshi Honda, Masashi Ando and Cowboy Bebop’s Hiroyuki Okiura. 

Can i fall more in love with them everyday?

Yes.

Yes,I can.

just a pissed dad and an annoying son

Piece I made for @omfairytalezine last year! 💫
