Description
OK BIG UPDATE DOODLE so i can explain where i've been all this time1. i just finished my first year of college! :^) so that's exciting. but i never had time to work on any art that wasnt for class unfortunately, so that's why i was gone for so long!! sorry about that.
2. i MIGHT be working at the disneyland resort in the fall as a character performer!! i auditioned and went thru the process and got to the final round for my height but my availability wasn't perfect since they were hiring for the summer (i am going to japan in the middle of june so i wouldn't be able to work x__X)!! so if there's positions available once the summer season ends, they'll get in contact w me. its not set in stone but its still super exciting that i got that far!!!! (my goal is to be friends w/ pinocchio)
3. FOR THE SECOND TIME IN MY SHORT LIFE I REALLY JUST LOVE PINOCCHIO AGAIN something abt this story keeps coming back and just knocking me over the head w it. i love how lovingly fucked up it is. and i love all my wooden sons. my fucking rotten little shit wooden sons. every character is just [chef kiss]. no one is good in pinocchio EXCEPT maybe geppetto and the blue fairy. and the fact that the protagonist isnt even a good person for MOST of the story is just!!! wonderful. i love pinocchio, my terrible, terrible son. im disneybounding as him when i go to disneyland in a couple weeks and im so pumped
4. THANK U ALL FOR THE BIRTHDAY WISHES!!!! it kinda came and went bc i had finals just after my birthday ;v; but thank u for everyone who sent me a nice message!!!

One of the Pinocchio from a book (made by the Grimm brothers) Heβs very rude on the book, (I would say more then the original story) because In the anime he didnβt made in propose and on the original book it was made on propose to kill cricket, any of the Pinocchio stories Β I saw and specially their designs are awesome.
Your art itβs awesome.

I kinda wanna make a comic where a bunch of people are whining at book Pinocchio for wanting to kill the cricket with a hammer, then he just picks up the cricket from the wall and throws it at them and they freak the fuck out because the cricket is coming at them buzzing loudly and they frenetically stomp it down. lol

Sweet goodness! Disney's is the only one that didn't kill his Cricket (Even if it's normally an accident)
Te-he, I recently watched "Mokku" and I've really loved it, I have to admit it was a nice surprise; it was the first Pinocchio story I've seen more than just a few minutes of since I was 7 (that has it's own story) and I know how 70s anime can be, so I was a bit worried going into it, but it's grown on me (I've actually started campaigning for Discotek to license it)

i REALLY like mokku, i wish i could find it subbed anywhere!! its really between mokku and 1972 pinocchio for my second fave pinoke incarnation (the disney one will always hold a special place in my heart as my Number One Son)
has discotek shown any interest? i feel like it's definitely worth it on their part tbh

1972? So then both of your second favourites were made around the same time (^.^) I've seen a bit of the Disney version again too, and it seems like a matter of having a different type of appeal; the Disney version seems by far the most sweet and innocent version. It seems Mokku is sort of in a middle ground between Disney's version and the original book; nicer and wants to do the right thing more than in the book, but with a stubborn and selfish streak the Disney version doesn't have (Still cute though....plus no whale/shark scene)
Though the big obstacle to finding Mokku fansubbed is that the Japanese version's never actually had a full home video release, about 20 episodes were released on VHS in the 90s and when DVDs first came out Tatsunoko released 9 episodes on 3 DVDs (1, 2, 3, 10, 23, 28, 36, 44, and 52, I know there's at least some overlap with the VHS episodes), they did that with a few other series and a couple got another batch of 9 episodes, but Mokku didn't. I even tried checking the Italian amazon & ebay websites in case they had released it (One of my friends is a big fan of retro anime and taught me this one, the Italian dubs usually leave the episodes in tact and include the Japanese audio and release an entire show, so if you can't find an anime on the Japanese websites, Italy usually has it) and they didn't have it either, which is a bit ironic considering most of the show takes place there, it seems the only version to be fully released is the French dub which doesn't have any other version.
And I'm not sure about the company as a whole, but I was at a convention recently and spoke with somebody who works there and he agreed that it would be perfect
Though Discotek isn't the only option; Tatsunoko has been uploading some of it's older series on youtube (though you have to both use a browser redirector and pay to watch the videos and I'm not sure if you actually can do both and they haven't gotten to Mokku yet either way) and there's also a company in Japan (TC-Entertainment, I believe) that's been releasing HD Remasters of a whole bunch of retro Anime and live action shows since 2012 and the 75 they've done so far include some of Tatsunoko's other shows from that time, it's not anniversary specific either (Kerokko Demetan got a release last year and that came out in 1973) which is good since they've announced everything being released until August and I wouldn't want it to be another 5 years. So yes, it would be great if Discotek released the dub and original like they've done with other dubs from then, but in a pinch I just need a release and I could translate it myself

Oh my god, that's great news! You're so lucky to be working at a disneyland resort! (I finished my first year of college too. Finals are hard work...D: )Β
And nice art! It's funny how Pinocchio is so nice in the Disney version while other Pinocchios, including the original, are assholes

Awesome! 
Sweet! Japan! That sounds real fun!
Yeah, Disney's Pinocchio is cute looking. ^^ No matter how many other versions people try to make, they always turn into crap and the Disney one still reigns supreme. ^^ I'm sure you to will become friends over there.

oh no, really?? :^( what department were you trying for? for a lot of the audition roles it's just based on talent, not work experience.
im going to be there for two weeks, starting exactly two weeks from today, haha! :>
aww, well, they're all good in different ways. like the 1972 pinocchio is my favorite actual adaptation of the original story, because it keeps the original story almost to a T! disney's pinocchio is very cute, but quite different from the moral and outcome from the original story.

Any job possible with the Custodian job being the lest desired. I feel like I can get away with either retail or tour guide. I know it does, but I don't think I'm one of those people who is like REALLY devoted to acting or singing or whatever. I have a little stage fright.
HEHE! Nice! 
Too true. They definitely tried to keep it as pure as possible because 1) it's a pretty horrific story for children, and 2) there is WWII that America had to fight against and the last thing they would have wanted was to see anymore horror-based storytelling going on.

Aw yay! i've been thinking of a concept with her on the other fairies around. Β Like if they need training for be a god mother or a guardian to make their dreams come true. Β As well as if all the fairies know each other like if Fairy godmother and blue fairy would know each other along with the three fairies XD
