So I want to talk about the Dread Persephone!
We are familiar with Persephone as the abducted bride of Hades, the floral, pastel-themed, light-hearted girl that brings about Spring and is the daughter of Demeter, goddess of nature and the harvest.
But is it really who she is?
No. No ...
Flipping off the Author

So Squid Game is a huge hit, and I'm glad I've been a kdrama fan before it was cool, apparently XD (though granted, it's been cool for a good while for a lot of people)
This is not an article about Squid Game, but it offers the ...

The Most Marvelous DC Comics Character (I Only Learned About Recently): Zatanna Zatara
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Feb. 8, 2021
It is always a good time when I learn about a fully-fleshed out character with a history, family tree, team affiliation, famous love-interest, and storyline. It is almost more of a mystery when a new character is discovered so late in the game I have to question why their existence ...
Spring Cleaning: Decluttering the Hoard
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Jan. 25, 2021
It is difficult for me to focus on a drawing project if my desk is in disarray or there is a pile of unsorted objects around me.
I purchase items in multiples. If I see a good ink pen at the office supply store, I pick up multiple four-packs of ...
I Spent Winter Break Playing that Futuristic Game that Takes Place in the Year 2077
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Jan. 11, 2021
Last month, I bit the bullet and downloaded the simulation video game that is at the center of much controversy at the moment because of its performance on older generation console systems. The game in question is Cyberpunk 2077, a game that takes place fifty-seven years in the future where ...

So we've talked often about how letting a character die in a story is something that should be used very frugally, because once death occurs, it should be permanent. In most settings, death shouldn't be something that is reversible. If not, it will lose its impact, and the ...
On Clipping Wings
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Oct. 5, 2019
Today, while on a coffee break with my gaggle of Red Cross guys, a friend told me that he had dabbled in writing stories, after a vignette he'd written at school received an award. His mother though was skeptical, and when she went to read it in the exhibit ...
Polar: From Webcomic to Film
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Feb. 11, 2019
It was a Saturday night and I did not want to watched any movies in the theaters, so I decided to stream the latest release of Polar on Netflix. After the first ten minutes of gratuitous nudity, cyberpunk dressed young assassins, gorgeously dressed seasoned assassin played by Hannibal’s Mads ...
