#this Had To Be Done

Breaking the rut, trying to get something done to celebrate the ishin release

wait, has izaya ever sworn in cannon? i suddenly cannot remember if he had or not,,,,

Yes.

Izaya made a swore.

at least once a year i reminisce upon one of my very first anime boyfriends and i fall in love all over again. no ones doing it like you anymore shizuo

i feel the need to inform everyone (considering i just remembered) that there is a character in the idw sonic comics called slinger the ocelot who is just mgs3 era revolver ocelot

Eerily beautiful modern nihonga paintings by Matsuura Shiori (she also does a lot of bijin-styled art, some hinting at wlw!). For her take on Japanese monsters, the pieces shown here are:

One of the most beautiful jorougumo depiction I’ve ever seen (the tangled butterflies in her spiderweb-hair <3)

A banquet going amok because of mischievious rokurokubi and nopperabou, and their tsukumogami (animated objects) suite

A falsely serene Otsuyu from the Peony lantern ghost story

Crokery tsukumogami and a very curious investigating cat

Make-up tsukumogami and sleeping white cat (maybe a bakeneko as hinted in the mirror)

Grasp

Inspired by the Pillars of Creation star cluster
