oral birth control (Shoshone, Navajo, & others)
sunglasses (Inuit)
gum (Mayan, Aztec & others)
lacrosse (Haudenosaunee)
hammocks (Taino)
suspension bridge (Inca)
@LycanFerret btw when i said "idk where that came from" i moreso meant idek how they see that or where the idea comes from because its just Not true at all ๐ฅน
i have no issue with their facial features, nor do i have an issue with any of them being overweight (besides natsuki, being underweight is important to her lore). the issue i have is the fact that none of them have ethnically japanese features. they all look like white women.
I shall enter the discourse by saying:
All of the characters depicted here look like actual women. Women are not a monolith and some can look more youthful and angular, and others can look older with oblong features.
@LycanFerret im aware. ive been following it for a while and just decided to put my two cents in now. i was not directing my quote towards you or anything btw, i just made a general observation. im transgender myself so seeing people use slurs to describe the drawings is really disheartening.
and in no way am i attacking the artist. they are 17 and deserve NONE of this hate. its simply their artstyle and thats fine. i just think they couldve incorporated some japanese features thats all! regardless i love their art and have been a follower for a while ^_^
like no i dont think they look like "men in wigs" idek where that came from. i do think that they have been erased of their asian features. like idk maybe im crazy but they look like the average white highschooler and thats my ONLY issue.
@rensaxon to each their own. i thought it was funny. some ppls senses of humour are different. i tell my friends to die and its funny. it was tweeted in general and not meant to be taken srsly, do you rlly think he wants ppl to die bcs of tickets??? like cmon
everyone was ranting about how "they don't want a tour", now everything sold out fast af, phannies are in shambles, people who were excited from the beginning didn't get the tickets they wanted & the people who complained did - and somehow phantwt will blame the post HL phannies
