ok so i just saw this on twitter and i know its weird to post a tumblr screenshot ON tumblr but i need you guys to know.
it is literally. LITERALLY really actually them down to the last word oh my god
im soo interested in characters that haunt the narrative like they are dead before the story even starts but god are they still there impacting things
kim dokja makes me insaaaane hes such a hypocrite he HATES that his mother's most tangible love for him was through self sacrifice and yet that's also the only way he's learned to express love himself. the cycle of destroying yourself for everyone you love and knowing they'll resent you for it but feeling like it's what you owe them... it's unbreakable! he is in the cycle no matter how much he hates it! man!!!
this universe’s most powerless existences.
i reached the ending of the story. which is to say, now it can begin.

"black shadow figure and their partner they love and protect" is my favorite genre of media
Mushishi is one of those pieces of media that really sticks with you in a way that matters- and because of this, I’ve found it very difficult to find other media like it. While it’s originality is truly something one of a kind, I’ve been on a mission every since watching/reading it to find other media that feels similarly impactful.
That being said! Let’s jump right into my list of anime (and cartoons) & manga you should watch/read if you like mushishi-
1) The girl from the other side (manga- currently being adapted into an anime)
2) witch hat atelier (manga - currently being adapted into an anime)
3) XXX holic (I recommend the manga over the anime, but a single season anime dose exist)
4) over the garden wall (not a anime but a cartoon mini-series that has similar vibes)
5) the moomins 1977 (another cartoon- again with similar vibes)
6) ODD taxi (this is a bit of a weird one, but this anime follows a similar story structure to mushishi! Aka it’s super chill)
That’s the list for now!
If you’ve read to the bottom and aren’t a fan of mushishi, but are a fan of any of these other shows- I would still recommend checking out everything on this list. And if you feel like I’ve missed a show or two reblog with some of your own recommendations as well!
i saw my own post on my dash for the first time so here’s some explaination:
1. “The foos are fighting now until 10pm” is dad’s way of telling me “foo fighters are on austin city limits for a full hour”
2. he does not call me pops he calls himself pops and he signed the text
3. he types in shorthand and uses as little punctuation as possible hence the “baked tater”
4. to this day he’s rly proud of this. i told him he has 180k notes and he giggles and says, “what was my line again?” and i tell him, “don’t like that pic” and he gets a kick out of it
