Ryo in denial
Artwork PT. 2
Ebony Dark’Ness Demensia Raven Way here, continuing this
series much to your chagrin.
The more observant of you will notice that I am
posting as myself rather than everyone’s favorite squid with anger issues
posting on my behalf. For the less perceptive of you, the announcement at the
top pretty much declared my arrival to poke at “a certain elephantine preppy
man.” And if it’s ONE THING people should know about us Goths, we HATE preps!
Stuck up snobs think they can tell US what WE’RE doing is wrong? Perverted? All
while they masturbate to pictures of themselves and support things like dominating
women, segregating minorities and dictating who can marry who? All because I
wear black and take joy in the morbid taboos of life? And how we dress somehow
means we’re devil worshipers? Ryo, if it’s ONE thing I can tell you, I have a
choker with a c-r-o-s-s on it and I’m wearing it RIGHT NOW. (Along with a white
and black underbust corset, a white tiny hat on the side of my now pink hair, a
pink bra, pink panties, a pink bustle skirt, white tights, pink bunny
slippers—okay, back to the choker.) That ALONE makes me more Christian than
you’ll EVER BE.
*Cue loud pipe organ music*
God compels you to call this number and donate! He is
demanding his word be spread! Call this number and make your donation of five
dollars and we will knock this false idol off of his pedestal!

JESUSCHRIST IT’S AN ELEPHANT-MAN GET TO THA CHOPPA!!!! |
This is part of his extremely disturbing “Glamour shot”
series called “Last chance at summer.” I prefer the name “Excuse to draw chicks
in bathing suits in suggestive poses and an elephant man in a speedo” myself,
but there you go.
Seriously, Ryo? Seriously? There’s no man alive who looks
like that. He claimed in one passive Deviantart comment that he based Ryuu’s
appearance on Arnold Schwarzenegger during his body-building phase. Ryo,
Ah-Nold, as buff as he is, has NEVER EVER EVER BEEN THAT HUGE, NOR DID HE HAVE
THAT MANY MUSCLES. THE NUMBER OF MUSCLES ON THE HUMAN BODY IS CONCRETE. No
matter how much you work out, you never have more muscles in your body, you
just make the ones you have bigger. So
WHY DOES RYUU HAVE, LIKE, 4 BICEPS?!
Now I claim myself to be an artist. I never said
a good artist, but an artist nonetheless. As an artist, I couldn’t deal with
looking at this anymore so I figured I’d do something called a red-line
drawing. A red-line drawing is when you take a pre-existing drawing that either
you or someone else has created and you draw over it with red to fix mistakes
or make the picture look better. In Ryo’s case, I had to do both. So here’s my
attempt to fix the drawing of Ryuu.
Definitely an improvement, wouldn’t you agree my little Gothlings? |
Anyways. Hesitantly moving on.
This is the last one in his series. (thank god) but you know
what they say: Save the best for last! So Poor Ryo had to suffer through
drawing girls in whore-ish poses and skimpy outfits in order to build up to
drawing this “masterpiece.” (More on this in a bit.)
Anyways, moving along to the rest of the artist comments.
“Lucky number 7 is Ryukenden Atrineas!”
Yeah, I feel blessed alright.
“Ryo's more the bodybuilder show type, but he's not gonna run around in those tiny things, so he takes the Arnold Schwarzenegger approach. A statement that says even a guy can feel good about his figure. Just as long as he has a reason to. But in addition to the swimwear, he has his old, classic shackle wristbands!”
First off, nice grammar in the first sentence. Secondly,
Bodybuilder show type? The fuck does that even MEAN? Is he surrounded by
invisible cameramen who are only begrudgingly there taking pictures of this
horrible monstrosity in order to avoid a beheading order from him? I mean, the
kind does look pissed. Or entitled. Or like he has to take a shit really bad.
Jury’s still out.
Third, just what the fuck is the “Arnold Schwarzenegger”
approach? Ryuu looks like he’s had 3 or 4 Schwarzenegger clones murdered, their
skeletons stripped and had their muscles surgically implanted into his body.
Make that 6 Schwarzenegger clones. Or 12. Yeah, 12.
Fourth, “A statement that says even a guy can feel good about
his figure. Just as long as he has a reason to.” I have two issues with these
two sentences. First of all, IT SHOULD BE ONE FUCKING SENTENCE. Secondly, “Just
as long as he has a reason to”? The fuck kind of motivation is that? So if
you’re not the size of a small minivan you SHOULDN’T feel good about your
figure? This, coming from a guy who says he doesn’t like fat women?
YES. HE’S SAID THAT.
What about something like… Everyone should feel good about
your figure, regardless of size? Or should I say regardless of Ryo getting a
boner over it? Because so far, Ryo’s “feel good” attitude should only be felt
if Ryo’s getting a boner over your figure.
Just like he’s PROBABLY getting a boner over Ryuu’s figure.
Ryo probably uses this book as relationship advice. |
Setting a red flag though, that Ryuu’s the one wearing the
shackles, not someone like Zelda. Maybe it’s Ryo’s fantasy to dominate Ryuu,
the undominateable?
On a final note on this paragraph, THANK FUCK
Ryuu doesn’t run around in that! That’s probably the smartest decision on Ryo’s
behalf, maybe the women of Hyrule will be spared for at least five seconds
until they realize they’re existence is still only to serve him and slowly sink
back into that deep dark depressing place.
I should also point out that out of all the “Last chance at summer” pictures he
drew of his Zelda Rip-offs characters, Ryuu has the smallest
bathingsuit.
… Yeah.
Ryuu the entire time he was drawing this picture. Jammies and all. |
Moving on.
“He's on the wall near LonLon Ranch and the castle's in the background.”
… Really, Ryo? Really? You would have been better off trying
to convince us that Ryuu ordered his peopleservants to build him a pool in the
middle of Hyrule Field. First of all the wall surrounding Lon Lon ranch doesn’t
have any square angles. Secondly, it’s a fuckload taller than that, unless the
ranch is flooded. Honestly, that sounds like something Ryuu would do
“Hmm…. I desire a Swim-pool to swim in. Please fill up your
ranch-stable with water so that I may swim in your flooded ranch-stable!" -An Ignoramus
UNLESS YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT THIS WALL, RYO.
Yeah, he’s really specific. |
In which case, why did you say it’s near Lon Lon Ranch?
These walls are found NOWHERE NEAR Lon Lon Ranch as well, so it’s JUST A LITTLE
CONFUSING. Secondly, your walls? Yeah they look nothing LIKE these. (Then again
they look nothing like Lon Lon Ranch’s walls either. MY MISTAKE.) First there’s
no texture on the wall. This texture isn’t EXACTLY the most difficult to draw
seeing it’s completely 2D pasted onto a 3D model due to the limited graphical
capabilities of the N64. But Ryo’s a lazy fuck, so he couldn’t be bothered
anyways.
Secondly, IT’S PRETTY FUCKING TALL. JUST SAYING. The
original wall was like what… a foot, two feet high? Did you intend to make it
look like a giant honking wall or were you just too lazy to DRAW THE GROUND
BENEATH THE WALL? But you drew the ground inside! HENCE WHY YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN
BETTER OFF SAYING IT’S A POOL.
Also, why is Ryuu there? Did you bother to tell the story?
Is he there so Hyrule can gaze upon his sheer horrificness? Is he there
silently looking at different towns and settlements in Hyrule and mentally
telling himself that he owns all of it? Is he perving on Malon?
The only reason Ryo decided to draw this was so he his loyal, die-hard fans could
have some fapping material eye candy fan service.
Moving on.
“After a while of not doing muscle art, I think this turned out pretty well. I hope you guys like it!”
No. No we don’t like it. I feel like it’s raped my soul.
Also, you think EVERYTHING you do turns out pretty well.
Because you have an ego problem. And because you like having anatomically
inaccurate buff men to masterbate over. Only people with Inflation fetishes
don’t bother with anatomy lessons and give their characters however many
fucking muscles as they want.
“I hope you all like this!”
“More swimwearers are to come, both girls and guys alike!”
Yo dawg, we heard you like swimsuits... |
Also, why the fuck does Ryuu give his son, whose full name
is Raphael, a cutsey nickname like Raphy? Wouldn’t the cutsey nickname giving
be for his mother, since Ryo’s so obsessed with gender roles that him doing
anything remotely feminine would be completely unacceptable? Does he find his
son adorable? In that way? Creepy as
fuck. And Ryo’s hinted at incest before with his horrifying pictures that Cala
pointed out.
We all love that angry squid. |
Now I mentioned earlier how Ryo drew the women in his
universe in very erm…. Suggestive poses. I think the best example of this would
be his Zelda image.
“But Ebiurb Dere’nesds Deneinsian Rebwwwrb Waiy”
you say, “isn’t this article about how obsessed with men Ryo is?” Well, my
little Gothlings, yes, it is. I’d give you a gold star, but gold is for preps
and Gansta rap fans. So here, have a Black☆Star!
He’s a bigger man than Ryo will ever be. We all love him, don’t lie. |
Leaving that image there so when you see what Ryuu did to
Queen Zelda, you can go back to it and try to make your soul laugh off what you
just saw. You probably won’t. Your soul will probably be dead. But at least I
tried.
THAT'S NOT SUGGESTIVE. THAT'S NOT SUGGESTIVE AT ALL. |
God save the queen.
First off, Ryo, good job. Good job reducing the
now-supposed-queen of Hyrule into a fucking harlot who rolls around in the castle
courtyard wearing nothing except a skimpy bikini that looks more like underwear
than something you’d swim in (SPOILER ALERT: WHICH HE ALSO RIPPED OFF FROM
ANOTHER ARTIST) with her voyeur husband taking FUCKING PICTURES.
YES, I’M NOT GOING TO ELABORATE ON THE ARTIST COMMENTS OF
THIS PICTURE BUT RYUU’S THE PHOTOGRAPHER APPARENTLY.
He also claims that the bows add “innocence.” Ryo, the VERY
LAST WORD you should be using to describe this is INNOCENCE. It does not exist
here. First off, her husband is taking suggestive photos of his wife in the
MIDDLE OF THE CASTLE COURTYARD. THAT’S NOT PUBLIC BEHAVIOR, RYO, THAT’S BEDROOM
BEHAVIOR. Secondly, she’s a mother, and her kids have access to the courtyard.
Is this behavior something Queen Zelda would want her children seeing?
Especially her young, impressionable daughter who thinks doing half-naked, sexy
poses in front of a camera in public is okay as long as the guy behind the
camera says he “loves you”? I can see her becoming an inadvertent porn star at
the age of 16 when she strips for the wrong sweet-talking guy. Because it was
okay, mommy was doing it with Daddy in the courtyard!!
Finally, LOOK AT ZELDA’S POSE, RYO. THAT’S NOT
AN INNOCENT, PLAYFUL POSE. THAT IS A “FUCK ME” POSE. And not “Fuck me” in the
sense of how the ever-entertaining Chef Gordon Ramsay yells it when he gets a
raw beef wellington for the THIRD TIME THIS DINNER SERVICE!!!
OH COME ON, YOU FUCKING DONKEY!! BOLLOCKS!!! YOU, YOU, YOU AND YOU, GET OUT!!! |
So basically, in Ryo’s world, women who supposedly have
power (Ryuu wouldn’t be fucking king were it not for her) are reduced to
fapping material. And even when this is supposedly a fanservice picture of
Zelda? Ryuu is still there. He’s the camera man. He’s the one taking photos and
pasting them on the internet for all to see.
So what’s the message of this image? “Women of Hyrule? Ryuu’s always there, and he GETS what he WANTS, no matter who or what you are.”
So what’s the message of this image? “Women of Hyrule? Ryuu’s always there, and he GETS what he WANTS, no matter who or what you are.”
What’s the subliminal message of this image?
“Muscley men Women of Earth? Ryo’s there, and he GETS what he WANTS, no matter who or what
you are.”
What I meant to say was... GOD exists... And he is American. |
Now,
if you begin to feel an intense and crushing feeling of religious terror at the
concept… Don’t be alarmed. That indicates only that you are still sane...
"Is he there so Hyrule can gaze upon his sheer horrificness? Is he there silently looking at different towns and settlements in Hyrule and mentally telling himself that he owns all of it? Is he perving on Malon?"
ReplyDeleteIt's probably all of the above, actually. Ew.
But welcome to the team! And thank you for the compliments, ahaha!
Ha ha thank you! =D And no problem! We love you! And your anger issues! =D
DeleteBoy, it sure figures that Ryuu is a bodyshaming asshole on top of everything else. How typical can you get?
ReplyDeleteAhahaha, that redline is still awesome. Great job. :D You know the funny thing about his use of that wall is that it pretty plainly puts the pic in Ocarina of Time's version of Hyrule, and yet he's using the Twilight Princess version of Hyrule Castle, probably because it's easier to half-ass. (Also the wall's facing the wrong direction, JUST SAYING. And nice perspective there, Ryuu, jeez.) To be fair, it does get pretty tall at the corner, though.
There's something really really really gross about Ryuu trying to inject "innocence" in what is very clearly supposed to be a hot and sexy pic. Innocence is something normally associated with children, so number one, he's infantilizing Zelda to a degree, despite her being, as you pointed out, a grown-ass woman with children of her own. And number two, he's just taken something normally associated with children and sexualized it. Eeeeeew.
But yeah, I don't understand why he's sitting around in a speedo in the middle of the fucking field, it makes no sense.
Thanks! Not bad for the first redline I've ever really done. ^^; and the wall he drew, the way he drew the ground on the inside.. It's like he can't decide if he wants it tall or short. XD
DeleteAnd yeah, Ryo is just a creepy, creepy, CREEPY dude. He's creepier than -I- am! (And that's sayin' something.)
On a more neutral side, Arrnie was digustingly built back then
ReplyDeletehttp://www.bizbrowse.com/bodybuilding/pages/builders/2008/builders/arnold.jpg
Also, playful innocence is okay... normally.
This said in his defense: the drawing is disgusting, the pose is horribly sexualized, which, coupled with a back snapping anatomy makes it yuck
Nice job Ebony. :D
Thank you! =)
DeleteYeah, Ah-Nold is pretty grossly built there.. but Ryuu... It's inhuman the way Ryo draws him. Disgustingly inhuman.
And despite Ryo's attempt to bullshit people with what he writes, there is nothing, -nothing- innocent about the way he drew Zelda. It's disgusting.
He needs to realize that people aren't going to believe your description before your drawing: he may as well have said "This is Zelda's uncharming twin sister Ulga who has a unibrow and buck teeth" and people would believe it -just- as much as they believe there is innocence in this image: Not at all.
This is true, but I saw drawing of people who have a build like Ryu... they are also considered massively deformed.
DeleteAnd this is true. It's a fake innocence used. Also, frankly enough, that drawing has nothing innocent. He could have said: "This is a stripped I hired to cosplay as Zelda" and I would have believed him more XD
Still,... well done, looking forward your other reviews :)
