A doujinshi is a self-published work by an amateur author. When it relates to an existing IP, it is a derivative work that is usually tolerated by the industry and IP/copyright holders. Many authors started out as doujinshi authors. I’m pretty sure Namori herself started out that way. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doujinshi This would mean that usually an “official doujinshi” is not really a thing that makes sense. Confusingly, an official doujinshi seems to exist: https://mangadex.org/title/fdbf786d-6075-45d5-b211-2a58786392f9/yuri-yuri . Some of the volumes are done by Namori herself and others are done by other artists (how it usually goes).

A slight shyness or sense of discomfort can be seen as a form of moe in Japanese related media. Namori doesn’t seem to be afraid of using it. It is not to everyone’s taste. I enjoy it when it is slight like in this picture, but it can go way to far very quickly. For example, the famous Akari-Chinatsu scene in the anime I find very uncomfortable.

Haha, so cute Akari’s odango coming through.

Gintama and City, hopefully 2025 is the return of good anime. Gintama and Nichijou are my only 10/10 anime so hopefully these new titles are really good.

without moe i would have yeeted myself off of building already lol

happy moe day

I have been watching Sayonara Zetsubou sensei lately. Also Pani Poni Dash! is an interesting watch.

• Hidamari Sketch
• Lucky Star
• Non Non Biyori
• Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou
• Gochuumon wa Usagi desuka?
• Tanaka kun wa Itsumo Kedaruge

Hidamari Sketch is very underrated and is much less well known than it’s contemporaries like Lucky Star, but it’s basically the comfiest thing ever. Any CGDCT/SOL could work for this (Nichijou, Yuyushiki, Kiniro Mozaiku, K-ON!, …) but I specifically chose shows with a slower tempo.

Man I used to do SketchUp all the time in middle/high school, so nostalgic.

I watched a whole show (shikanoko) this season. So yea banger season, almost never happens lol.

She’s gonna have to mop the floor with Sakurako after this.

Interesting mix of western and eastern calligraphy in the title. They do connect strokes within characters and also between characters (especially in kana shodo), but those flourishes are definitely western.

The best I can make of it is through deepl: it maps ぽやぽや to “carefree”, “carelessly” or “pampering”. “すぐ” precedes it meaning “immediately”, “at once”, “right away”. Taking in the context: it is done on paper and not digitally, and that there is some whiteout at the bottom. Also the hair colour goes outside the lines. All this combined makes me think that it means that the drawing was done “from a loose hand”, meaning with some pace and without excessive construction like a detailed sketch. I don’t think it is done completely without sketching though, as the top left strand of her right (our left) twintail there seems to be a sketchline the inked lines.

Lots of Akarins including sleepy Akari 🥰.

Our blond gremlin turned 13 yet again lol

Me realizing I will be gin-chan’s age not so far into the future (where did the time go):

Also don’t you dare be single if you are a day older than 25 in anime lol.

I thought so, they are probably just milking the popular title with this new stuff.

Crazy, Fairy Tail above nokotan. Sometimes I forget how action brained the average anime fan is. I watched all of FT before this release and I remember nothing from the last 50% of it. I guess they fought a lot or something lol.

As a slice of life guy I don’t really watch long anime anymore. Years ago, Jojos was the last one over 100 ep that I saw. The longest slice of life anime I have seen is the terrific and absolute classic “Hidamari Sketch” coming in at a bit over 60 eps.

433 packages, impressive :) I’m stuck on 474 while keeping a working environment where I can do my things nicely. And that doesn’t count some hand compiled/written programs I have. Also, 175MiB of memory! I used to boot at around 400MB into my WM but over time it has gone up to a fat 600MB without changing anything :| Just nice to see someone going for a minimal system.

I’m not a thinkpad guy, but I thought one reason for people liking old thinkpads is that the old ones came with cpu’s that predate the intel management engine.
