I like jacket weather. More pockets. It's not supposed to be not-jacket weather until at least April.

Gonna invent a whole new list of slurs when renaming all of the creatures in this game.

This was probably the least interesting I've been on stream (in a while), just because I kept getting too sucked into whatever menial task I was doing to say funny or smart things.

Man, I fucking kneel before the power of fujoshi in getting their officially-sanctioned shipping bait not only translated, but with such a high quality JP->ENG image edit. All the other shippers in this fandom are spiritually weak and mentally enfeebled.

Hey fujos and fubros, does anyone out there have a source for the following "interview" featuring Daiki Yamashita and Rica Matsumoto around the JN/PM2019 era? The ones that I know of from animedia and spoon2di have them interviewed separately, and this one seems to have them together. #anipoke

Thirding, and putting in that this goes for all creators. Most don't make money, so they subsist off of praise and minor breakthroughs in their own self-consciousness. The former helps a lot with the latter.

A napkin (or paper towel) with "I own Cookie's Bustle" written in Sharpie.

A napkin (or paper towel) with "I own Cookie's Bustle" written in Sharpie.

Here's the thing: The "copyright registrations" for Cookie's Bustle are legally meaningless.

The "registrations" were made with INTEROCO, a private company with no authority over copyright law in any country. They're about as enforceable as writing "I own Cookie's Bustle" on a napkin. (eg., below)

I have never been so mad at a person I didn't know existed until this very moment. Fuck the mixing people.

Fixing to create a soyjak for people who say "X certain was a choice" unironically.

This is a legitimate threat. I have the hatred and the lack of artistic skill needed.

Also, just because people have asked me on discord: The branch of Shogakukan that deals with Pokémon manages magazines for 1-6th graders. They are not involved in MangaOne, which has its own editorial staff. Senior management heads should roll, but they are likely not the same people in this case.

Should go without saying but this is obviously not an endorsement or justification of Watsuki. It is a statement about why it is not surprising that Japanese authors are protesting this scandal and not Watsuki's. There is a distinction with a difference in terms of public perception.

There's also the social capital that Watsuki has as one of the more successful Jump authors during a very dark period, and his mentorship of Eiichiro Oda. Still, if he had been convicted of abuse and not possession, I can't imagine they'd be doing anniversary celebrations of his work.

I really don't think people should conflate the on-going MangaOne/Shogakukan thing with Nobuhiro Watsuki's case. Watsuki - as far we know - did not abuse children. The mangaka involved in the MangaOne debacle did. That is a big distinction in why authors are protesting this and not Watsuki.

The writer didn't specifically call for Dragonite as the 幻 Pokemon, and only learned that they chose Dragonite when the episode aired. It doesn't seem like he had any particular species in mind, but while Mew is considered the first 幻 Pokémon, Dratini's Pokedex entry also uses the word.

02.03.2026 04:17 — 👍 1    🔁 1    💬 0    📌 0

The writer for the episode (Takeshi Shudo) said his intention was to have them encounter a "幻" Pokémon; this is the same term that later was translated to "mythical" for that subset of legendaries. In Capsule Mon, the same character is used for the Green Dragon "Mirage" monster.

They absolutely need more time, but they are the ones that pace the franchise at the moment. It is "their fault" that previous games come out unfinished, but they seem to be correcting it by demanding more time.
