Hello all once again! As we approach the end of the year, my gift to all of you is a weekly general thread. You might say that I post one of these each week. You would be right. However, I like to think of it as something I gift to you each week, so it still works. In any case, feel free to post any on-topic things that strike your fancy. Some possible conversation starters might include:

I watched all of Cowboy Bebop and I don't get it. Bebop never showed up at all! Why is the show named after him?
I have a date I invited over for dinner. What episode of Food Wars should I watch to prepare for cooking dinner?
I stopped by my local donut shop and couldn't find any of the jelly donuts like they eat in Pokemon. Any recommendations?

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).

Shinobu Horror Story

I haven't really been watching much anime lately, but I am still going through Penguindrum -- just, very slowly.

Most of my free time's gone into working on my art tools. I hunkered down this weekend and pretty much completely rewrote my image stitcher; it can now handle graphs of correspondences (solved one pair at a time) and I used it to stitch this image from Penguindrum. I have some more details about it in the thread I posted, if you're curious.

This is the third anime I've encountered Klimt's paintings in. Sora no Woto and Elfen Lied's OPs are the others. Yes, that's where the butts came from -- Klimt's Goldfish -- thank you to whoever explained that on reddit years ago; you introduced me to Klimt and I recognized this one was a Klimt parody (of The Kiss) because of that. Caution for anyone not familiar: lots of nudity in his art.

I know this thread is a week old, but wanted to share a Spy X Family piece of art that I ran across here since you posted your image and talked about Klimt. The title given is チュー (chuu), which is just the sound effect used for kissing in Japan.

Thanks for sharing!
