About me and this blog
I'm not big on introducing myself, to be honest. But as I'm getting the hang of Tumblr, I thought I'd share a little something about myself and what this blog is all about. So, here's a quick rundown.
Ara : 25 / INTJ
(I'm not really into sharing my personality type, but I figured it's easier to show it rather than trying to explain it with words.)
English / 한국어 / 日本語

I mostly talk about Naoki Urasawa's 'Monster' on this blog, but I can also randomly ramble about other stuff. Sometimes, you might stumble upon personal posts.
I'll go all out for what I love. Writing oneshots and analysis, drawing pictures, making videos, editing images, taking photos, sharing playlists, creating AI character bots, and doing translations. These days, my focus is mostly on making videos. Of course, I'm not one to rush things. I go through a lot of reviewing and contemplating before posting, so it might take a while before you see everything I'm working on.
I primarily use English on this blog. But I can switch to Japanese or Korean when necessary. When it comes to meaningless self-talk and sharing my translation work, I often switch to languages other than English.
Favorite character and OTP: Heinrich Lunge (Runge) & Grunge (Grimmer/Lunge)
I only take video requests at the moment. If you have a video idea you'd like me to work on, feel free to reach out to me in whichever way works best for you.
I've tweeted about the same thing before, but I'm posting it again because it's so important to me.
Lunge's attitude of doubting Tenma's innocence to the end is an element that reveals his arrogance, but it is also a device that shows his fragility. He is like a very meticulous machine and will quickly break down when faced with the slightest deviation from the norms and specifications he can handle and accept. To him, the voices around him claiming Tenma's innocence must have sounded like meaningless cries based on typical feelings and sentimentalism.
Emotions are difficult and uncomfortable for him to deal with. He lacks logic and becomes more callous and stubborn in the face of what can be perceived as emotional assertions. But, at least to me, that attitude seems to be his defense mechanism. That is his weakness. He evades the underdeveloped psychological side of himself in a subtle, but more than that, terribly clumsy way.
In a sense, I sympathize with Lunge. Oh, he doesn't want to show his emotions or his soft side to anyone, but his actions prove that he's just a weak human being. What a poor detective. That's why I love you.
Here's the 4K modified version. I leveled up the quality, nailed the font, threw in some extra scenes, and spiced up the effects. I didn't intend to work so hard on editing this video, but editing the effect was essential to explain the scene below...
+) One hidden metaphor:
The red mist through this scene is actually the bloodstains left behind by Grimmer on the walls. Despite Grimmer's own life being laden with regrets (hinted by the glimpse of Kinderheim 511's facility + bloodstains), the instant he encounters Runge, his life transforms into something that everyone else would yearn for, full of envy.

Pt.1 / Runge Edit
I'm experimenting with various approaches in my own style.
They're feeling romantical...
