Crown Alchemist

I mean, I love Tartah in the manga but he shines more in later arcs, this was the set up and it was phenomenal in the manga too but damn… seeing the contrast between the vibrant colors of the show and how HE sees the world really drives it home that he is disabled.

It’s not just an inconvenience, that’s a fucking disability and a huge one for a witch.

I mean I knew it, I understood it but the way they used the presence or lack of colors really made it hit like a fucking steel chair to the teeth.

i'm a big sucker for a diegetic piece of art/literature serving as a mirror to the story's characters, so naturally the illustration of the poem about a silverleaf tree falling in love with a star from chapter 47 of WHA *had* to be redrawn as Qifrey and Oru ✨🍃

tip jar!

aaand a rotated version under the cut for easier Oru appreciation!
