Nezchan:

I don't read WDtFS or keep up on the up-to-the-minute updates for Fluttering Feelings (I prefer to wait for the quality typeset version), but I should clarify. Does this only affect Halmoni's work on the former, or are both projects affected?

I will just chime in for what I know and assume, but of course, we would need halmoni herself to confirm.

As far as I understand (and hope), this situation only pertains to WDTFS because of all the recent events that have happened with the WDTFS Overtooning/overlay typesets.

Also, WDTFS is in a fairly different situation than FF, given that Lezhin explicitly stated that raws of WDTFS must not be posted outside of its site and that it will take and has taken legal action against offenders.

Furthermore, at one point long ago, halmoni stated that even if typesets would no longer be made for FF, she would still post her translations to her Pastebin. She is not involved with the FF typesets at all; they are done by other people. For WDTFS on the other hand, it is in fact one team that is working together on the translation, QC and typesetting.

Of course, it is entirely possible that her position or opinion for this has changed, which is something she is entirely entitled to. (Contrary to what some people believe, she doesn't owe anything to anyone.)

Anyway, as I said before, we would need her confirmation to know for sure.

Suits her rather swimmingly.

An anonymous user asked:

Halmoniii~ I just notice fluttering feelings (alright, I'm sorry :( I'm so late) but would you mind giving me a brief more than what's generic summary? [...]

 
halmoni's answer:

Two gay girls who don’t really know they’re gay for each other fall in love and do a lot of gay things, but no homo bcuz they’re ~FRIENDS~ and then later one of the gays (No-rae) is like “fuck I think I’m gaY FUCK” but then the other one (Seol-a) is like “hot DAMN No-rae is foine as fuck good shit good sHit? but am I rly gay idkkk?”

The thought process when chapters first come out for WDTFS must be very similar to that of FF.

 
 

The 5 Stages of Manhwa Grief

1. Denial

You initially deny that the chapter is out. You pretend it doesn't exist so you won't look at it.

2. Anger

Eventually, you give in and you read the raws. You can't understand shit, so you curse yourself for not understanding Korean.

3. Bargaining

Screw this, you'll get it done all by yourself! You find ways to type out the Korean or to use image recognition, then you run it through Google Translate. But all it does is spit out incomprehensible gibberish.

4. Depression

You give up all hope of trying to figure out what is going on in the chapter. Salty tears are wept.

5. Acceptance

You accept... halmoni as your yuri messiah, and the translations are bestowed upon you.

 
 
Indeed, the path to recovery is long and painful. And weekly. :3

I wish this was uploaded here. Too many black bars.

In the meantime, here is a paste of the bookmarklet that I made before, for whoever's interested.

 
 

Random pro-tip

This is a bookmarklet to unhide all spoilers on the page.

 
Create a new bookmark on your browser's bookmark toolbar, and put this as the URL of the bookmark:

 

javascript:(function(){$('.spoilers').removeClass('spoilers').css('background','lightgray');})();

This removes the black highlighting and replaces it with light gray highlighting.

 

javascript:(function(){$('.spoilers').removeClass('spoilers');})();

This only removes the black highlighting. (You won't be able to tell what used to be marked as spoilers.)

 
Now, you essentially have a 'button' on the bookmark toolbar
such that when you click on it, it will unhide the spoilers on the current page.

@ andiedraws

 
That reply... was way more in-depth I could have ever expected, lawl.

But the above certainly constitutes very valid reasons, pretty darn grounded in reality. Honestly, you didn't need to explain all that to us nor did you "owe" anyone any explanation. But as you said, "getting it out" is also good sometimes.

Thanks for sharing that though. Sometimes, it's hard to believe that we live in 2015 when there could still be such commonplace intolerance in certain places in the world.

 
By the way, this part here about your... "stealth techniques" is gold:

But notice, the yuri fan art I have on Tumblr are done in a way that can be interpreted as friendship or only at the level of subtext. If you have a hetero lens, it'll fly past you and you'll just see a pretty picture of two girls. If you have yuri goggles, then it's much more obvious.

Also, I never make yuri or gl the main theme of my art blog. It's a lot of general artwork, that happens to have some occasional yuri. Hell, even when I make yuri fan art, it has to come with this long-ass character analysis and process explanation (I use this evasive behavior a lot --intellectualizing a guilty pleasure, when the truth is I just want to draw yuri because I feel something from it)

Just noticed a few, so thought, oh what the hey. There aren't too many chapters right now anyway.

If one can prove to be useful or contributive in some way, why not?

No, because I guess you might say... I'm a sinkhole.

Don't sink too hard about it.

But of course if you feel uncomfortable with this idea - create as anon suggested, subtubmlr for nsfw things :) it's a waste to upload them on photobucket :)

I wouldn't say it's "a waste", but I think I get what you mean, as I sort of share the same opinion.

Of course when I said "a waste" I meant that when it's only on photobucket less people could see this fantastic artwork (especially that people don't usually check photobucket for fanarts). But always decision is up to the author :)

Yeah, I get ya.

 
I myself worded my old post (the one I quoted above) rather badly. In particular, when I said "having your work only here would really not do it enough justice". As Nezchan said, it needs not be shared in order to "have it done justice to".

Art, in any form, has merit in and of itself. Having it be shared and/or popular is just a "bonus" in some ways. And obviously, in the end, it is entirely up to artists to do what they want and what they feel is right with their work.

 
Just speaking for myself, when I see great fan art, I have the urge to try to share it with others. I feel like I should not be "keeping it for myself". Or something. *shrug*

Naaaaaaaaaaah it's not NSFW, not even NSFW-ish. Honestly :D For me is totally SFW, you really should post in on your main blog.

OK, correction, ya need to create:

andiedraws-marginally-nsfw

Alextasha:

I wouldn't say it's "a waste", but I think I get what you mean, as I sort of share the same opinion.

 
I'll just paste some stuff I said before:

Keep in mind that this is only my opinion or personal recommendation, so take it for whatever it's worth...

[...] this is just a personal recommendation, but I really think you should have it uploaded somewhere else also, not only here.

Don't get me wrong, of course I am glad that you're posting it here. (And it would appear I'm not the only one.) It's a real treat for us. But the visibility and reach of your work is extremely limited if you solely post it on one random page of a random thread thread on a random forum.

So I'd really recommend posting it in a place where people usually post fan art. Such as your DeviantArt account, Pixiv.net, a Tumblr blog, or anywhere else. Then, you can still repost it here as well as other places.

This way, your work can reach a wider audience, and more people, more FF fans would be able to enjoy it.

Just my opinion.

(Originally posted here.)

[...] having your work only here would really not do it enough justice. Also, site and forum data can be lost. (Has happened before to this very forum, from what I understand.) So if you only posted it here and only here, then a week/month/whatever later, the forum or site crashes with all posts lost, your work would essentially "disappear forever" off the face of the Web. Which would be unfortunate as hell.

So yeah, I'd give this advice to anyone else creating fan art [...], as I wouldn't want anyone's efforts to go to waste.

(Originally posted here.)

(Originally posted here.)

 
I'll also post a good counterpoint or "other side of the argument" from Nezchan:

[...] it does remain your choice and you likely have your own reasons that you've thought about so don't let yourself feel pressured to do something you're not comfortable with. Even if you're the only one who ever sees your art, I feel that still "does justice" to the work, and if you share it somewhere that's still a Good Thing.

Do what you're comfortable with, in other words.

Me:

But yeah, totally what Nezchan said. Again, that was merely my personal friendly recommendation. Of course, you're totally free to do whatever you want. No pressure there.

HypocriticalLiar:

Also, thank you for the markdown thingy anon.

Don't mention it. That sticky thread has always been there; all I did was reorganize the stuff in the format I personally prefer.

HypocriticalLiar:

Plus, how did you do that? Show exactly how to post the code without the code actually appearing in your post?

Magic.

Or I escaped the characters. Mostly with one or more backslashes. To see exactly what I did, just quote my post, and you'll see how I did it.

 
Also, I think it's normal with any entertainment (TV show, movies, games, anything) to start to lose a bit of interest if you see too much of it. I mean, if you keep re-reading the same chapters over and over too frequently, then naturally, you won't want to read it again because you start knowing everything by heart.

A Japanese FF fan noticed that there was a change from the original Korean version. A strange change at that.

Apparently, in Japan, it's way too dangerous for halmonis (lol) or obaasans to be carrying bags on their heads.

They must have been afraid of a Japanese granny suing comico because that manga made her carry some weight on her head. Isn't it great, all these Japanese grannies reading a Korean yuri manwha.

That must definitely be their core target demographic. :3

...

OK, you've outted me, I am a Japanese granny who reads Korean yuri manhwa all day. GO ON JUDGE AWAY!!1
