This is my heart right now, but my gacha luck reminds me that I'm not gonna see her for, probably, years.

Her existance is more than enough to convice me to get back to AK.
Funnily enough I see tweet about her more than Lappland Alter and Crownslayer.

Translation from artist:
Commander: Well... she's my daughter...

Watanabe: Commander, why didn't you tell me about me and your child?
From now on, I will protect my family. Let's go back to Eden with the whole family...
Lucia: What are you talking about?
Lee: Give me permission to fire!Commander!
Watanabe: Is her name Chaos?Let's sleep together tonight.
Bianca: Hey, you...
Watanabe: Dad is coming home late tonight.

:BremertonLewd:

It's not Selene, it's Chaos (here's a video to prove it).

This is actually a meme from the year 2024, we just don't get it yet.

It's in reference to this photo

This should get Bulma over nine-thousand new Snapchat followers.

I still don't get it and it's almost 2025

And it's down along the Falls Road, it's where I long to be...

Lying in the dark with the Provo company…

...Does this count as Steampunk?

Cool

It is unusual to see Sheep Nun so emotional and sad or with open eyes.

Duck of Love: "Don't just stand there, Sheep. Join the Convent of the Holy Duck as well and become Sheep Nun to stay with the soon-to-be Froggy Nun."

It's the fateful day, then.

SFW? we can change that.

mafia movie

Are you talking about Goodfellas? I remember the scene you say there word for word. The protagonist says something that seems to piss off the other guy (who's known for being a hothead, to the point that he's killed people who angered him before) and the scene gets more and more intense with him becoming visibly angrier (and as you said, everyone getting more and more nervous) as the protagonist tries to deescalate the situation, with the protagonist then realising the other guy was winding him up and laughing it off and everyone breathing a sigh of relief and laughing

I even found it. What a great scene

Yes! My fucking god, the moment I heard his voice I knew this was the right clip. I've never watched goodfellas, but I absolutely remember seeing just that one scene.

And the fact he's named Tommy Devito also surprisingly makes sense. I knew he had a really distinct voice, (if I thought harder, I might have realised this guy was basically the originator of mafia guys having that nasally tone) but whenever I tried to think of a name for the actor or the character my brain just fed back "Danny DeVito" and it was driving me nuts because I KNEW that was wrong.

I came back after a few days. First, I appreciate that you took your time to reply my comments and didn't down vote me.

Now, I will say with more careful choice of word. The author wants to emphasize the eyes, and achieved it, I don't deny. But I don't like the way he used it and I read this doujin with my normal mood. The density of direct face angle shot is too high, which reminds me the students in my drawing class, they keep stick with a specific angle to be good at it before the test. I understand the reason, they want to pass the test to get in university not becoming good at drawing, but the way they're following brings a contrary effect, makes them understand the structure slower. Not surprise they often hide the mistake under the label of style and it is not creative. That is the feeling this doujin gave me, he treated each page as independent individual emphasize all of them so the special is not special anymore. That's why I told this doujin's pacing is not good, because each page is a sole illustration.

The example you gave, It's not the same case with this doujin. It's a scene not a film, so it should be applied for 4-koma not a whole doujin. Not to mention how the atmosphere changes during the conversation. The part villager said about Reimu becoming a greater monster even stronger than her predecessor, the part Reimu became better is not emphasized enough to make a surprisingly tense up for the greater monster, this is the worst handled part in this doujin in my opinion.

Last word, sorry for being sarcasm. Seeing discussion under touhou tag is enjoyable so I hope that I could see more in the future.

P/s: I took a glimpse at his previous works which I find was handled better than this one.

Even it's an oneshot, it is too short to make readers feel sympathy with characters. Ideology of both is simple but how much the story provided information even made it so trivial. Tragedy made for the sake of tragedy, the author should have given a background about living in human village and more wideshot. Beside good illustration, story telling method is important as well.

Sounds to me it's more like a preference than anything else. Just don't go making it seem like all of the readers are like you and probably a lot of us won't have much problem with your criticism.

This was such a sad doujin. Hope Reimu won't be forced to kill Marisa. Oh and it seems like I've read a couple of his works on dynasty scans already. Pretty much all of them were depressing as heck but still nice to read once in a while cause they are kinda different compared to the usual touhou doujins that get translated.

I would love to see a scene where Reimu forced to kill Marisa. Cause I know this artist gonna make it tragic as best possible.

welp. Start the countdown to the death of someone.

It's peak.

It's always a treat for a doujin tries to make a origin story on a character. Very rare but very nice.

Why fanbase never tried to make a happy past for Reimu... Osana Reimu already killed a part of me.

Now there's a crossover that I wasn't expecting.

Man. Asatsuki Dou gensokyo always have that depressing atmosphere. Like everything and everyone is suffering.
