Samurai Champloo fan art finially finished. Easily the best series I’ve seen in a while, and better so by my favourite animators and directors and artists. Going to do a Bebop work soon maybe with a similar twist.
i am SO ANGRY. i got in today at 1 and i have 58 emails and i spent all fucking friday printing off the damn CV’s for my boss and he just emailed me asking to scan them back in because he’s going on holiday and can’t pick them up. like are you shitting me. i emailed them to you originally. how much fucking money have you got to waste. you prissy fuck.
Some rare Samurai Champloo (サムライチャンプルー) rough sketches from the opening titles, which was animated by Takeshi Koike (小池健) and directed by Mamoru Hosoda (細田守) !
They worked together again, after 10 years, on Hosoda’s latest film “The Boy and the Beast”, and I’m dying to watch it already!
Mamoru Hosoda is ultimately my favourite director I think. Done.
New rule, non muslims can’t say the word jihad. Until you stop conflating a word that means personal struggle with faith and temptation with terrorism youre just not allowed to say it.
I’m not a Muslim but I just thought I would reblog this because I think it’s definitely worth listening to.
It’s totally okay for non muslims to reblog this, and i encourage it. Im just glad you’re listening.
Oh god, finally someone said it. Every time I see words like “jihadist” I want to scream, but I’m not Muslim, so I wasn’t sure I should say anything.
Jihad means struggle. It doesn’t mean holy war or anything like it. In fact, there is no word in Islam for holy war, because the nature of Islam does not leave room for holy war. Islam has a juridical system, not a Pope who can just say “Go wage holy war.” Conflating the personal nature of jihad with violence is so very gross and it needs to stop. Period.
Actually, there’s another word non-muslims in the media shouldn’t use:
Allahu Akbar. It’s not a statement of terrorism. It means “god is great”. It’s something we say to praise our lord. It’s what we say when we pray. It’s not a statement of terrorism. Allahu Akbar doesn’t mean terrorism stop using it as one
