First sentence in Bakemonogatari
So, last week I started learning Japanese. Three days ago, I found a brush pen at a local stationery store and thought it might make learning how to draw kana a bit more fun. It's also my first time using one, but it's been easier than I expected.
Today I decided to find out what the first sentence in the Monogatari books was to write it down as a challenge and, well, here it is :)

a class president among class presidents
a quick little drawing of hanekawa. I finished “reading” Nekomonogatari Shiro (it was an audiobook) earlier today and felt inspired (not inspired enough to put effort into coloring) to do this. I’m sad to see that there is no audiobook for Nisemonogatari but oh well, I shall read it on my lunch breaks even though my poor illiterate bones ache. Anyways I wonder who I shall draw tomorrow…

English Version of Renai Circulation on Jimmy Kimmel??
Okay, quick story, I don't watch Jimmy Kimmel, but I have a family member who does and I couldn't help but overhear him talking about how the UHC Assassin has fancams on the internet and all of a sudden I hear the English version of Renai Circulation playing and...
I don't know how to handle that honestly.
05:08 UTC
There was a girl in a recent chapter of a manga I like that had similar hair to Hanekawa so I lost my mind
The girl is a (most likely) one-off character name Nupie....I like am absolutely not caught up with the manga at all but she looked cute so
