my favorite running bit in the dunmeshi manga is when there's a panel showing everyone's reactions to something and izutsumi is just
izutsumi is such a fun character bc she hates being a beastman and desperately wants the curse that turned her into one undone, and you're probably thinking "well being part animal sounds fun actually but ig i can see where she's coming from, developing these new physical characteristics due to a curse must feel a bit uncomfortable or even violating of one's self image and relationship with one's own body" but then you learn she's not a cat girl she's a girl cat and it all makes more sense if i was just living my jolly little life as a jolly little cat and one day a curse burdened me with human knowledge and awareness of being i'd be pretty pissed too!!
Do you guys think Izutsumi does teenager talk and chilchuck is the only one who can understand her? No? Aw man ☹️
Idk how to draw senshi if you can’t tell
yknow ive noticed nobody really talks abt the episodes in the castle town in regards to izutsumi beyond "haha shes embarrassed because she was being cuddly how cute". Has nobody else realized how that was just yet another instance of her having her agency stripped away from her. why is nobody talking about how fucked up that is
I love Izutsumi.
I know people who are like her, on a surface seem like they completely lack empathy and are selfish assholes, but it's so much more complicated than that. In the snow golem episode everything Marcille said to her hopefully will help me get through to my own friends who are also like that
this show is just so awesome, it seriously has representation on every flavour of autism and treats it so kindly, i'm so glad it exists
make bad art or you will always feel bad about your art. Make bad art until you find joy in the crooked lines and the off colours. Make bad art because art is about expression and artwork is never ugly because it was made by someone who has lived a life no one else will ever live. Make bad art and find love through ugly. Make bad art so you make art at all. Make bad art.

Here are my Dungeon meshi stickers! I basically thought "hey. lots of people will have cute food themed stickers. And that good and well, but I want that serious stuff too!" So I decided to make a series for the main gang based on sense of self instead!
Maybe its because I'm bitter or because I just left a fandom that reduced one of the main characters to a one off joke when the POINT is that they're complex but I hate how this fandom treats Izutsumi.
I hate how some people who interacted with the fandom before watching the anime thought that she didn't even speak because EVERYONE just draws her as a cute stupid cat whose personality is just being a cat
Again, maybe I'm just bitter, but I hate how the most common joke is the "Izutsumi: izutsumi" cause apparently no one can be bothered to actually consider her thoughts and feelings and personality.
Like yeah I'm not saying it can't be funny but it quickly becomes tiring when she's reduced to just that
Especially when her entire arc is about finding her identity as a person and as part of a community, finding a balance between her human and cat souls because she's both but also neither. Especially when canonically she's ashamed of the one time she behaved like just a silly little cat (golden kingdom)
