plug: Dreaming through the Noise

[nepenthee]

Hello! With some delay (low energy after event end), I'm plugging my new shrine:


Nanako Amachi from The Top Secret

This shrine has been on my wishlist, so to speak, for many, many years, and I am so glad and relieved that I was finally able to make it come true so that it doesn't haunt me any longer. I also don't think that I'd have been able to put together a layout so quickly without a deadline, with all the elements falling together.

Though a character shrine in name, the site is more accurately a re-experiencing and processing of the particular chapter/criminal case. If you aren't familiar with the series, worry not, as no prior knowledge is required. If you check out the shrine and it speaks to you, know that the series itself is among my favourite manga and well worth a read for its delicate portrayal of human complexity and loneliness across various criminal cases.

There are two essays I still need to finish to close my thoughts, but in the meantime, I was able to add various images around the site, with more to follow. The site's incomplete state has had me reluctant to draw attention to it, but in the spirit of this event and shrine challenges in general, here I go. :> It was a real joy to make use of these dedicated months and to race to the finish with everyone. <3

I'd be happy to hear your thoughts, here, in my guestbook or elsewhere!
