Greetings! The name is Time Lizzy, or Time as my friends call me. They/Them pronouns. I love to try new things, draw, sing, dance, garden, and I do some witchcraft in my free time. I'm a Hetalia role playing partner if you guys are interested.
I’ve repeatedly seen British people make fun of American food for apparently always being either “too sweet or too salty” but our cuisine is still pretty mild compared to a lot of other countries, and having repeatedly tried British food, I’m pretty sure the term you’re looking for is “having any flavor at all.”
Britain invaded over half the world for spices and then decided they didn’t like any of them
Honestly the weirdest thing about the similarities between Steven Universe and Houseki no Kuni (Land of the Lustrous) isn’t even that they share oddly similar settings and premises, including:
genderless but feminine presenting humanoid aliens made of gems
who have superhuman strength and immortality
and are good at fighting except they use swords instead of guns or other advanced weaponry for whatever reason
and use these skills to fight off other aliens who periodically invade for mysterious reasons.
also the protagonist starts off as really useless and clumsy but grows stronger and more competent as the series progresses
oh and they both live in big fancy houses on a beach
Yet the weirdest thing about these two series is that judging by when they were released, they developed entirely independent of each other. Rebecca Sugar was already working on Steven Universe in 2011, and Houseki no Kuni was first released in 2012, which means Haruko Ichikawa was likely working on it at the same time. Both authors in two different countries had basically the same idea at around the same time, both entirely independent of the other’s influence. what the fuck
This is kind of like the Juniper Lee/American Dragon coincidence
