Crrryy - My Fancies

17 years of One Piece: Art + Tears

If I had to choose one (among many) of the things that, to me, set Oda’s art apart from other shonen artists, it would probably be the way he draws his characters crying. I always loved that with him there was never any sugar-coating when the characters need to express their emotions. No sparkly tears, no beautiful, cute, crying faces. You get the ugly sobbing, the runny nose, the tears blocking the vision. Basically, you get the raw emotion and pain that the characters feel, which has a huge impact in more emotional scenes. And that’s, in my opinion, one of the things about Oda’s art that really deserves praise.

A comic about 40-year-old Sanji meeting 19-year-old Sanji (and Zoro) and the rest of the crew on the Merry, heavily inspired by/based on this comic by sixpaw_pawsix on Twitter (please go check it out, it’s so good)!

me, with a vague plot idea, 1 (one) character name, and an outline that consists of mostly question marks:

How i wish they are not siblings....

It’s not funny.

It’s not just competitiveness

It’s not just imitation.

It’s not just respect

This is the face of devotion.

This is not just some plain-old rivalry.

Izuku has rivalries, he has friends.

But Bakugou Katsuki is not just a rival, not just a friend, and not just a bully. Certainly, not just some childhood friend.

He is Izuku’s inspiration, the person closest to him who was put on a pedestal next to fucking All Might, Who was basically considered a god in the MHA universe before his retirement.

It’s not funny to say that Izuku’s admiration for Katsuki is just ‘Hero Worship’.

Because if Izuku ‘worships’ All Might, you should damn well Fear what he will do for someone closer than All Might, for Katsuki.

All Might asked Izuku to step into his shoes in the next Symbol- hewas ready to break his bones in the tournament to win

All Might said he always saves the people within his reach - Izuku nearly killed himself to secure Kouta and save Kacchan

All Might knows Izuku’s spirit and desperation is a fearsome thing. And Katsuki is threatened by it.

Izuku trying to save Kacchan…repeatedly, at the cost of his own damn life…

How he cried like his damn soul was ripped out of his body after Kacchan was taken away.

Tell me one more time that Izuku hates Katsuki, and I’ll show you a devotion beyond words.

Now…Imagine what Izuku would do if Katsuki asked something from him.

But you know what? Katsuki is never going to do that because he is the one person who is intimately aware of everything Izuku can sacrifice in the name of devotion.

And I for one, am really thankful that Katsuki will never dare ask anything of him.

You can call it his Pride. I’ll call it his Fear.

Because the one thing Katsuki fears above everything else is ‘Izuku’s Spirit’
