Tablet empty so it‘s some for some Elesa! First time drawing her. I should draw her more often, I’ve got no idea what i‘m doing

i had a friend who was livestreaming the eps for me bless her but otherwise...

ww is 100% region locked, you can't even bypass the geo restriction even with a vpn because ww knows you're on vpn, they will tell you that sir/ma'am you cannot access with a vpn on :D

technically the process is (1) sign up for an account (2) pay for the monthly subscription which is about 20 bucks a month (3) make sure your laptop timezone matches the japan timezone (4) be in japan > the last part is the difficulty and most of us can't bypass or cheat the system so it's a moot point - i did pay for everything up incl the subscription till the region part ;-; i knew it was going to be probably impossible, but i tried it anyway

EDIT: just saw someone say that it doesn't work on the website but it works on the wowow app on phone with the VPN so i shall try that next week since i already have a subscription

the timings of both the old ep. 1 and current ep. 1 are actually almost the same despite the seeming number differences; within the allotted time period like 15 min is dedicated at the end of the ep to a long round of advertisements - first ads to pop up after ep 1 was shl and cql lol

the only major differences are: (1) ending and opening sequences have new content; priest was credited up front in the opening sequence rather than not mentioned at all as with the youku version and they changed the art piece to the last supper in one of the art graphics (2) they lengthened some scenes by some milliseconds, very negligible (3) colour grading and filtering - the colouring is much better on the ww version and users did mention that they can actually see what's happening in the dark corners of some scenes finally as it was q dark previously

it is 100% hard-subbed; subbing and other teams/accounts on weibo are working real hard to erase the hard subs and provide chinese subs etc. - can't share which accounts or direct links lol but if you search you'll be able to find resources - the jp subs are really huge af like if it's two lines that's half the width of the frame gone (ok i exaggerate but it's at least 1/3 nonetheless)

yes fans will come down hard on you if you so much as share a pixelated screencap for example, as is the usual case (even with other bl shows) because ww apparently will come down hard on you too and their older notice says that illegally uploading will lead to cancellation of the show (as is the usual case with other several jp broadcast platforms), so don't even think about sharing a visual on twitter/x - but just that side of things i think.

there's no stopping cn fans on weibo or intl fans anywhere else they usually get content from, if they can get it, no idea honestly, it's really the community delivering for the community and it's tough work > not endorsing, but i uds it's a resource for many ppl - in any case can still try to get the subscription on ww

some fans say that it’ll eventually be available internationally :/ no idea, it could mean maybe they’ll work with another platform? but if it’s just ww alone I haven’t seen any evidence that ww will provide for intl fans so fingers crossed there's a plan

technically also if they do dvd for jitd that's great too, but still also quite challenging to get and also comes like months later

I just heard of lucy dacus and that band she was in for the first time.

Can someone explain why they’re good & worth listening to?
