Oh no two seperate artist created two separate characters with different silloettes whatever has happened to the animation industry in 73 years??? The Horror!!!
This post is making fun of people who cry about “cal arts art style”
I’m specifically mocking this gif
ah, that.
some fun facts about this: the person who made the original chart the gif is derived from outright lied in order to get their point across by deliberately drawing the characters super off-model…
and “CalArts” as a derogative term didn’t originally refer to bean mouths, soft rounded faces, and what have you. It originally referred to 2D Disney-style animation (specifically, it was in reference to The Iron Giant of all things.) And the person to blame for this is…
drumroll please…
That’s right, John Kricfalusi coined “CalArts Style.”
As in, the self-confessed pedophile.
As in, the guy who notoriously tortured his animation staff.
I don’t play either, but the gap between how much I saw tumblr talking about overwatch when it came out and the gap between how much I see them talking about overwatch 2 is stark
The whole Overwatch death spiral is one of the few things that makes me wish I were still back in undergrad because I could have pulled an incredible case study out of the sheer number of axises on which they burned goodwill and alienated the playerbase.
people often accuse overwatch of fucking up by balancing around esports but as someone who knew a lot of people invested in both ends of it it’s actually much worse than that. they were in fact constantly trying to balance around casual players (making changes that exploded high level play every time and were never noticed by casual players) while cancelling everything that casual players actually cared about (events, new gamemodes, cinematics, comics), and therefore managed to succesfully cater their game to Nobody
Princess Mononoke’s mother wolf Moro and Howl’s Moving Castle’s Witch of the Waste are both voiced by a famous singer and drag queen Akihiro Miwa.
Akihiro Miwa (born in 1935) is one of the most prominent queer icon in Japanese history, who survived the atomic bombing of Nagasaki (his hometown) during WW2.

somehow knowing that tumblr is being kept around mostly as a testing ground for advertisers and corporations doesn’t even make me feel that exploited, because every social media site is exploitive. but being basically lab rats to test shit on before it’s refined for use in polite society is by far the funniest possible way to be exploited.
