What is truly generic? Why do people just lump something into that category when they know little to nothing about it? And why do they make it seem like you can't prove them otherwise because they don't feel like learning about the intricacies of whatever genre you're going on about?
The fact is, dear readers, that I am nothing more than an imitation. Nothing about my personality is or will ever truly be mine and I'm okay with that. Why can't other people be okay with it? Why do I have to be one hundred percent original? Why does anyone? You can't copyright an entire genre.
If I want to draw anime, fucking let me and don't try to discourage me with "you need to make it yours" or the like. Because that's just a fancy way of saying, "but it's just too overdone and I want to see something new."
Maybe there isn't anything new anymore. Did you ever think of that? I am of the belief that in our world today originality- and I mean true originality- is dead. Everything's been done by now, by someone in some corner of this world. No matter what you draw, write, or create, someone has done it before and someone will say, "well this reminds of a work by another artist."
Why do I feel like I'm the only person who gets that?
