One of the reproduction paintings from the 2021 "Haibane Renmei and Its Surroundings" exhibition (灰羽連盟とその周辺). Got lucky stumbling across this and HAD to get it. Just need to find a good spot to display it!
I needed to have them on my island I’m still working on the rest of the cast!!
Assuming both of them died by suicide, why wasn’t Rakka born as a sin-bound like Reki? And why did Rakka’s wings only start darkening and shedding after Kuu’s day of flight?
Just saw this today! Lots of other deep funimation just popped up, and some cheap too! serial experiments lain for 4.99!
🪶I tried to make it out of mostly thrifted pieces in true haibane fashion, which is why it looks a bit different than her official art
🪶skirt, shirt, necklace (made from combining 3 jewelery items) and bracelets are second-hand
i bought a pre-crimped wig and styled it (had to tie it because it's so fluffy)
🪶I hand dyed each of the feathers gray, glued them to a wire base wrapped in fabric and made wing slits so i can pull them through the overshirt.
🪶i am actually wearing a flat halo on my head, but you can only see it when you look at me head-on
🪶the cigarettes are fake, don't smoke, not good for u
(Couldn't fit all the panels so they'll be in the comments)
Lil Comic I did on miitomo long ago decided to share
takes place a little after the ending and after the twin haibane were born
we're in the point of view of a newborn haibane
probably ooc sorry 😞
tell me in the comments if I should do another scene and which scene
I am 29 years old and I've been watching anime since 2012-2013ish.
For various reasons I stopped watching anime around covid. I just felt like there wasn't an anime out there that could satisfy me. Be it shonen , horror , comedy , whatever.
All these years I've never seen or heard about Haibane Renmei. Not in lists , not in youtube channels not from people nothing.
Today I was browsing movies at a local website and I saw a complete blue ray. The cover art with Rakka peaked my interest immediately. She seemed so melancholic and a bit scared.
Luckily for me I found the entire series as a 4 hour upload on youtube and sat down and watched it and boy of boy was I reminded what it's like to watch a good fucking anime.
The parts that are supposed to hit you hit me hard. Very much so. I also very very briefly brushed over the fan theories but I don't really want to demystify everything.
So I'll keep some distance and hopefully revisit it at a later time with a friend or partner. Definitely a must watch that I'll be recommending to everyone I can.
