#coping talk

Hello! I hadn't updated my pinned post in a while so I figured I'd adjust that!

Hi I'm Coping! I'm a 20 something illustrator who is really sad and really gay. I started this side blog when I was dealing with undiagnosed borderline after developing a deep crush on someone. The stories I was reading at the time really hit hard at that time and kept making me reflect on my feelings but I was frustrated some stuff wasn't posted here on tumblr. Making this alias has really given me the opportunity to collect media that helps me process what I've gone through.

Currently, there is a large amount of Kase-san in the queue as of course I love it a lot for its story and beautiful linework. Also mixed in is The Two of Them Are Pretty Much Like This and Run Away with Me Girl.

Series to be added:

Futari Escape

Donuts Under The Crescent Moon

Kanajo Ni Naritai

Last Gender

Cotton Candy

Loving Yamada Lv. 999

Ohana Holo Holo

Moon and No Make Up

Hello Melancholic

Scott Pilgrim

Scott Pilgrim Seems like a cliche to be adding into the mix right now but admittedly reading it again in my mid 20's affected me a lot (The Pandemic is scary because I forget that was nearly 5 years ago now). I could see myself a lot in Ramona and how I experienced being mythologized while becoming more detached, so for that I've wanted to put it in the roatation. There are also a few short or unknown series that will also eventually mix in with these guys. I've been reading or watch or playing a lot that my brain may have glazed over by now.

shit looks cute....

As of the past two days I've added pretty much all that will be of the Seaside Stranger series for now. There was a lot so my queue is nearing full ^^;

That isn't helpful since the next series I'm working on setting up is kase-san which will also include probably a lot of posts. I'm considering actually upping the posts per a day because of it. Right now it's been 4 per a day but I'm considering possibly going as high as 10 a day to get it moving a little faster. What I'll actually do remains to be seen for now.

As I'm writing this I'm actually second guessing myself a little and instead I'm considering working on uploading The two have always been like this and The girl I like is so handsome since there's only 160ish pages to edit between the two as opposed to the 500+ for kase-san alone.

Some series I've listed in my pinned; I'm in love with the Villainess, I Think Our Son is Gay, Sweet Blue Flowers,I think our Son is Gay, I want to be a wall and androgynous boyfriend, I have not caught up to through my desired means so likely won't be added into the rotation anytime soon. Complex Age and Blank Canvas will probably not be worked on for a while either since they're also longer series. And finally I'm debating if I'm even going to share Rikette De Kanji since the author(s) have come out making NFTs and stand by it (which I do not).

Some series I've also been reading that will come in once I've finished or caught up include; Given, Catch these Hands, Tropical Fish Yearns for Snow, Cat+Gamer, and also continuing uploads of Goodbye my Rose Garden.

What I will likely focus on uploading is a few short run manga series, She loves to Cook She Loves to Eat, Black and White: Tough Love at the Office (Absolute Fav lately), Kanajo ni Naritai, Now Loading, two webtoons, Dykes to watch out for, and Boys Run the Riot. Tamen De Gushi is also for consideration.

As for even farther in the future, I've been looking to read the other Kabi series, Xgender, Transparent Light Blue, SHWD, Hello Melancholic, Even Though We're Adults, how to we relationship, and probably what will be the most interesting which is Run Away with me Girl and Futari Escape. I don't really have anything that explains why they're the most interesting, it's just the feel.

It is more or less the same general concept as Kabi's my lesbian experience with loneliness but focuses more on the love hotel side of it. Per usual I will list all posts of it under the series name but I think I will also tag even tame panels as nsfw as most of the series in general is such.

Admittedly one part I'm sitting on is the focal pair which is asumi and a neighborhood girl she kissed when she was young. This blog is mostly a reflection of seeing my experiences in comics and part of that does align with my queer life as a girl who used to live in my neighborhood was a grade or two older than me was affectionate with me growing up but it can be off putting the way the series ambiguously ages them at the start. In the present Asumi is 20 looking for 22 year olds to find this girl meaning their ages in flashbacks could only be 11/12 and 13/14 each but this is portrayed by Asumi being in grade school while her senpai was in middle school. From what I can tell this series is made by a male writer so I'm trying to keep aware of dubious representation. I don't think that gap is inappropriate but I do question the portrayal of it.I'm certain things in relation to questionable age gaps will come up again when I get around to sweet blue flowers as well as it has one past relationship that is major squick but we will come to that at a later point.

Despite this blog being majorly for my own sake, I still care to hear the input of those who follow it so feel free to comment here or send asks if you have any opinions or concerns related to the content on here. I haven't said it before but if there are any content tags people need, I will try to keep in mind of them since I've mostly stuck to just series name and nsfw [as needed] at this point.

There is not a lot left towards Pinky and Pepper Forever, there's only one in the queue. ATM it's most a lot of air master I had in the drafts, and some more of Laura Dean, Not so shojo love story, and the prince and the dressmaker. I mostly had this running on auto since.... February? So I've been considering trying to add more I meant to which currently is;
