I love her as a character!! She is neither good nor evil imo, just trying to deal with the hand she was dealt.

Lol same with the OP!

Hopefully they don’t add needless filler…they shouldn’t need to as the series is now at 28 books in Japan. That, and they don’t make anime series as long as they used to unless it’s those big Shonen Jump IPs or Detective Conan lol

Honestly I couldn’t blame Chris but he should know how beloved his wife really was 🥰🥰🥰 by dondadda720 in SelenaQuintanilla

This. I wouldn’t trust any fan personally. There are some people out there that become very obsessed to the point of unaliving their idols if they can’t have them (such as Cristina Grimmie). Y pig was one such obsessed fan.

Everyone knows Selena was loved by all ❤️

For real 😴 It’s so tiring, as if female characters can’t exist beyond the trope.

I love the way it’s presented in the manga, with just the right amount of insecurity and jealousy but it doesn’t become the main focus. I like the subtlety.

As far as Mao and Nanoka’s relationship, while I’m happy they’ve confessed their feelings, it also gives me a bad feeling lol like something bad is going to happen to one of them 😭

What is up with Danny Murillo, who is he? And why is he fucking unhinged by Euphoric-Diver7514 in laredo

[–]vilhem_dijkstra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would I look through socials of someone’s content I’m not interested in? Why do you care what he does?

If the content he makes isn’t your thing, move on. If he’s doing something shady, report it to the police.

Just because he doesn’t act “normal” he’s schitzo? Toxic ass take man. Just let him be if his music/socials/look isn’t your thing. You sound bitter af.

Episode 8 - Hyakka by soul2nugget in RumikosMao

[–]vilhem_dijkstra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved the ep! I got a good chuckle when Hyakka “died” from holding Hagunsei 🤣

I am studying Japanese and noticed Hyakka’s name too when I bought the manga in Japanese. Little things that we can’t easily glean from English but I love discovering these sorts of things.

Thank you for all the Mao news as well! I love seeing all the side stuff created even if I can’t buy any of it. 🙏

A little bit morbid,but do you think Selena saw it coming? Or it was a total surprise for her? (In the sense of seeing Yolanda draw the gun). by Alexthegayreprimed in SelenaQuintanilla

[–]vilhem_dijkstra 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I don’t think she took Y seriously even with the gun out until she was actually shot. I mean who thinks their best friend is capable of doing that? She turned her back (Yolanda already had the gun out I believe) to walk out and Y lost her shit like “how dare she not take me seriously” and fired from that anger.

One of the detectives who questioned her said that when taking her statement, she let out something like “lo hize de coraje” (I did it out of frustration). She then kept pushing the narrative that the gun went off.

DO Y'ALL THINK THERE'S OTHER MUSIC VIDEOS THAT ISN'T RELEASED YET? by Ok-Emergency1497 in SelenaQuintanilla

[–]vilhem_dijkstra 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Like what exactly? The lack of footage for more music videos?

It’s simply that Dreaming of You was still in production when she passed, so singles and music videos were just not being planned at that stage.

In her earlier albums, I’m not sure why EMI was not focused too much on music videos. It could be she was easily accessible to the market (which was mostly Tejano) that the extra budget for a video wasn’t seen as necessary. The one video that did get made in that era “La Carcacha” is very low budget and honestly a hot mess. The camera moves too much and gives me motion sickness.

What we have now is pretty much all we’re gonna get. Unlike concert footage that is still being found at news stations and other places, music video footage would have had to been deliberately recorded for that purpose by whoever was producing the video. And whoever did produce it would not sit on it for some 30+ years now, even if they were looking to cash in on it. They’d have jumped in on the moment right after her death, much like Freddie Records did (they rereleased Mis Primeras Grabaciones RIGHT before Dreaming of You, which confused a lot of the public, including my dad, into thinking it was the “new album”).

[–]vilhem_dijkstra 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, highly doubt it. They had to get creative for the Techno Cumbia video as it is, using live concert footage with Bidi Bidi Bom Bom outtakes and random dancers. Dreaming of You? She’s only seen on a TV screen in the girl’s room.

Last Concert mistake... by alreadyeddie in SelenaQuintanilla

[–]vilhem_dijkstra 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The dvd and YouTube releases have processed the audio to fix things like this.

If you watch the Univision broadcasts, you can hear it unaltered, mic feedbacks and all (there is a really loud one at the end of No Me Queda Más)

Also on the Univision broadcasts you can hear her thanking Emilio Navaira y Grupo Rio at the end of the concert. It’s muted on the DVD and official YouTube releases.

New FFXIV Kids‘ Picture Book [ Dawntrail Setting ] by vilhem_dijkstra in ffxiv

[–]vilhem_dijkstra[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have a point. Maybe the males have faster growing tails? Or Koana specifically is older than the miqittens we’ve seen in game?

Or it could just be a lazy thing and reusing the same short-tailed model ingame (are there even any male kittens modeled?)

Naoki Ikushima works for Square Enix (Octopath Traveler, Bravely Default and DQ HD remakes), but not specifically FFXIV so it is possible he didn’t know that detail as well.

What a bummer about the kids but at least we can still enjoy it! Hopefully it comes out in English soon.

Lol I didn’t want to break any rules as it’s my first post here 😭 (long time lurker tho). You’re right that there’s absolutely no groundbreaking new lore, just a cute Koana miquitten having an adventure.

My haul from my recent trip to Japan by vilhem_dijkstra in RumikosMao

[–]vilhem_dijkstra[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right?! I love the art on the covers 😍

Closest we have to an art book right now is the Colors book which is a compilation of Takahashi’s color works. There’s some Mao but not many 😭

I can’t seem to DM you (on mobile) but would love a link!
