I’d give anything for more scenes of the two of them
Obi and Shirayuki on the Blu-ray box cover! I can’t stand how cute they are😭
In college, I took two amazing courses–scratch that I took one amazing course and one semi-disappointing sub-par course–Fairytales and Graphic Narratives, respectively. And until right this very minute, I believed them to be an utterly, though fascinating, waste of my time and tuition though they made me smile. Okay, it was college so they didn’t always make me smile because finals are the worst but I digress the point I am trying to make is this:
I HAVE AN EPIPHANY CONCERNING MY BELOVED SHIP OBIYUKI DUE TO MY TEACHINGS!!
So, first and foremost the birth of my epiphany came from thinking back to my class on Fairytales when we studied Snow White! (Graphic Narratives didn’t really teach me much other than how to think more critically about…Graphic Narratives, so I guess it really doesn’t deserve any cred for this post TBH, lol.)
But like I said we studied Snow White.
Not this one:
Or whatever this one was supposed to be (sorry not sorry):
But, the original one. There are two versions (maybe there are more but I forgot them if there are) of the Grimm’s version of Snow White. In the very most original version, everything pretty much happens as we all remember it minus the singing: Snow White makes Queen step-trash jealous by her beauty, Queen step-trash tries to have her killed, due to her amazing beauty Hunstman is a wuss and lets her live because he’s weak to a beautiful damsel, Snow White plays Goldilocks and breaks into a dwarven settlement, the dwarves also wuss out and take pity on her because she is pretty and can cook/clean for them, then step-trash gets angry realizing she is, in fact, alive and goes out to kill her herself. Now, this is where everything diverges from what we know. In the original version step-trash has to try several times to kill her. Once with a bodice/corset torture device that basically suffocates her until the dwarves get home and cut her out of it, twice with an evil hair comb that kills her until the dwarves pull it out of her hair, and then thrice with the age-old apple trick. The poisoned magic apple gets lodged in her throat and she becomes a stone statue for all intents and purposes, so what do the dwarves do? What any logical group of men would do with a beautiful woman who isn’t decaying but still dead in their eyes, lock her in a gorgeous crystal casket so that they can still gaze upon her beauty on the daily! From here on there are two different endings to the Snow White saga. The very, very, first one published states that the Prince comes along says, “ooooooooh pretty, let me take her home with me and put her on display” and sits around gazing at her all the time until someone in the castle gets pissed off and hits Snow White’s corpse which dislodges the apple finally and wakes her up. What an awkward way to wake up yeah? And then the poor girl gets married to the Prince–ta-da! The second version makes it a lot better ending for poor Snow White. Someone trips while hauling the casket to the palace and dislodges the apple and then the Prince sweeps Snow White off her feet and yay happy ending they get married and now the Prince doesn’t seem as creepy just staring at a dead person all day long pissing off his staff.
(Whooo that was a lot of background info, sorry, and also I know that I could also do a huge comparison post on the tales of Snow White versus our Shirayuki tale, but that is for another day!!!)
Depending on what you want to go with there are so many ways you can analyze the story of Snow White–all of them, old, less old, new, even our beloved Shirayuki’s story–but one of the things that stick out in my mind is how in every single version of Snow White she is always a trophy of some sort. The Prince is always going to get his trophy wife in the end. Even in Shirayuki’s case, if she does end up with Zen (which I’ll die if she does) she will be nothing but a trophy wife. Even though Zen is precious and certainly not a bad guy by any means, he is a Prince, therefore their relationship will not be the same as normal couples have. She won’t be allowed to be an Herbalist and tend to the sick who may infect her and kill her before she can provide an heir. And poor Zen will still be stuck behind a pile of paperwork and responsibility to his Kingdom that he dearly loves.
But, hey who knows, maybe Sorata will go against the entire universe she has built in her storytelling and let Shirayuki be wild and free and a Prince’s wife…
I think this is where “A Romance that Cuts through Fate” comes in to play. Hopefully, if you’ve made it this far in my post (bless you if you have) you’re thinking what I’m thinking. Or maybe you’re thinking I’m a lunatic.
Keep reading
I just recently finished reading a manga where I 100% thought the first male lead was going to end up with the main character. They were so cute together and it was looking good for them . It looked like they would be end game. BUT THEN boom.
It.didn’t.happen.
I was aware that the second male lead had feelings for the main character but he hadn’t told her anything. He was always there for her when she needed him, without him ever asking for anything in return. He even kept his distance and helped her out a little with the 1ml. (See where I’m going?)
Then the 2ml and main character ended up together. (It was adorable, they were both so happy, even the 1ml was happy for them).
When I finished the manga I immediately thought of Obi and Shirayuki. I was like wait, SO THIS IS POSSIBLE. NOW I WILL NEVER BACK DOWN FROM OBIYUKI. RAHH 🦅🦅
Look at them 🥹🫶🏽
** I didn’t name the manga so I wouldn’t spoil it for anyone**
Uuuuggghhh
Cover for Robin # 7 by Joshua Williamson and Gleb Melnikov
I really hope the cover is meant to be a joke and not something they’ll push for in the actual story…
I feel you.😅
Intenté practicar cosas nuevas en el coloreado pero creo que fallé notablemente.
If you're a damirae shipper, reblog this
Let's find out how many are out there
Newbie here!!
So, this is my first tumblr page and post! I've browsed tumblr tons of times but never actually made an account!
I made this account to follow my favorite ships, DamiRae and Kyoru. Particularly DamiRae.
I really was into Teen Titans (2003) for years when I was kid. It was my favorite show for a long time. I always shipped Robin and Raven. My YouTube search history at 11 years old would have largely consisted of, "Robin and Raven moments". Fast forward to about 2-3 weeks ago I came across a picture of Damian and Raven from the end scene of Apokolips War, and I have been obsessed ever since!
I am brand new to the DC universe as well as Tumblr, so please go easy on me! I've learned the Robin in the OG Teen Titans cartoon was Dick, and he's Nightwing in the DCAMU. I love Dick and Kori together, I think they're a great couple. However, I never understood pairing Beast Boy and Raven, I think they're TOO different. I know opposites attract and all that, but I couldn't honestly see them pairing well long term. Their personalities just wouldn't mesh well. Damian and Raven though, that's on a whole different level. They understand each other and can relate to one another because of their upbringings. They're one of the most perfect pairings I've seen and I cannot get enough!
So, all that being said, if you're a DamiRae fan or page please like/comment on this so I can follow you! My page will mostly consist of reblogging DamiRae content! I hope we all get to see a lot more of this couple in the future! From what I've seen, this couple was very well received. So, I can't imagine Apokolips War is the last we'll see of them together!
If you read through this whole thing, thank you so much!
Damian and Raven in the DCAMU
