| Empty Art | 2025-10-14 |

A few days ago I bought another set of manga from the shop, I normally like to add new ones to my collection to see if something is to my liking.
The one I got is called "Ruri Dragon", I liked the art, the theme and well it just kind of "looked alright".
But as I read it there's this feeling that got to me in about the middle of the volume, it's a feeling of "emptyness?", it feels like I have read this story before, not the exact same one, but as in, the same dynamics, the same ideas, they get repeated over and over without any new takes on it.
The sketches are greatly appreciated, there is something human about these elements, and yet, I couldn't shake the fact it felt like a product deviced for people that have lots of nostalgia for the highschool.
Which is fine, I just don't, I can't imagine going back, those were hellish times.
But are those drawings a product? Well yes of course, they have to sell in order to pay bills and all the yadda yadda right?
Right?
I can't seem to shake that feeling off, like copyright and all these awful totalitarian laws are corporativistic, communistic and deeply anti human.
Hopefully instead of creativity extintion we'll find a way to share our creativity with our closest people again.
