You think you have the wherewithal to figure out my puzzle vagina?
Why is that vegetable slender and feminine? Why did Veggie Tales feel the need to make this one particular female vegetable waifish? Is she a leek, or something?

And why does this bother me so much?

I don't know much about Veggie Tales but it hasn't struck me as a franchise that's really cared about getting past the gender binary.

What's the bet the next page has Peridot do something new and we get a caption like "Peridot is a young witch however".

I just binged on the entire archive of Cucumber Quest. It's been a really lovely week, but this wonderful colourful comic about bunny people has made everything seem better. My only regret is that I missed the kickstarter.

Also, Peridot is the best and my favourite.

For anyone that isn't up to date on their memes, that's a boob window sweater.

Wrote this up in the PYF comics thread, thought I might as well crosspost it.

Triskelli posted:

Gigi learned nearly everything she knows about color theory from the Kirby series:



E: While there's not any actual proof, I like to think Nightmare Knight there comes from a proud tradition of people ripping each other off to make an even better product. NK is pretty obviously a riff on Nightmare from Kirby's Adventure:



And while I haven't found anything to confirm it, I like to think that that game was heavily inspired by another game about a dream warrior saving a dream land from a lord of nightmares with a magical staff and using his enemies' abilities against them, Little Nemo: The Dream Master



Which of course was a licensed tie-in to a movie with such a troubled production that the NES game came out in the U.S. two years before the movie finally came stateside (and three years before Kirby's Adventure, if you're keeping track), despite the movie being a serious attempt by a Japanese animation studio to break into Western markets.



Despite the schizophrenic yet overall bland nature of the final film, the Nightmare King was loving cool looking. But he himself was ripping off the design of and lighting used on the central figure in Disney's A Night on Bald Mountain, Chernabog:



So it's basically a human centipede of artistic digestion, taking us on a direct course from Satan and his minions to a webcomic about cute bunny people.

So I knew nothing about this webcomic until a couple days ago when a friend of mine reminded me about it because "OH MY GOD ITS SO CUTE."

They were absolutely right. I went from start to finish in the space of two days. Its just so adorable.

Kirby's sword power also does this in several games.

Well but Kirby's sword is a huge Zelda reference from the hat down anyway so...
