Subscriber Scenarios #23 – Movie Night

So I went a little overboard with this one, primarily because I had a few too many ideas for how I wanted to handle it. In the end it allowed for more conversation, though, and hopefully people won’t mind seeing this many characters on a big ol’ couch.
I picked this one in part because of Himeno’s recent tournament win. Clearly people want to see more of her, and I’m fond of her so I’m happy to oblige. Launch and Tien is a couple I’ve seen compared a bit to Himeno and Aki, partly due to Tien being a bit more stoic and Launch being unpredictable, mirroring Aki and Himeno’s dynamic a little bit. They’re also both ships that don’t get to become official in the source material. In Himeno’s victory pic I established a friendship between her and Hawkeye, so it made sense to me to bring them into movie night here and deepen that connection a bit. I also recently did a Film Appreciation Club Card for Eren, where I talked about Mikasa and Armin also being in that club, so it kinda felt like a fitting call to have them involved to. I tried to keep the action a bit varied and fun, hopefully there’s something for everyone here.

Mikasa Ackerman Character Ask 3

Mikasa and Ember are an interesting pair, as they have a sort of two-pronged path bringing them together. On the one hand, Mikasa’s partner Eren has worked multiple times with Ember’s partner Silas, including one foursome that involved both girls. Beyond that, Mikasa’s been exploring this goth arc recently, and while I don’t intend for it to be a main feature of her character in the Studio, it is a fun angle to revisit and one that fits well with Ember’s spooky Halloween roots.

Loona Character Ask 1

Loona doesn’t show up often, since I don’t really know much about her, but I had an idea I thought would be fun and might possibly open things up for some later projects if there’s interest.
Some of you may remember a while back an Ask where Raven alluded to introducing Mikasa to goth fashion. Mikasa of course sports a goth look in an alternate universe thing attached to the movie, but that design was also her younger look from the first three seasons and I’ve been using the season four design more lately. So this is sort of an original look, basically just taking some cues from that AU and applying it to her adult look. I don’t plan for this to be her default look in the Studio going forward or anything, though she might start sporting black nail polish a bit more casually in the future.
Due to how my schedule played out, Mikasa actually ended up debuting a little bit earlier at the Halloween party this year, but originally this was the first appearance for Subscribers.

Studio Halloween Party Highlights 2025

Last year we started a new Halloween tradition of a highlight comic set in the Studio Halloween party. Like last year, our randomly-selected costume model, Space Beth, takes the center panel while we check in around the party with the rest. I know some characters who appear here may be hard to place, especially in the glory hole panel, and I imagine some will only be identifiable through the tags in the public post. I’m pretty happy with how this comic turned out, and I hope y’all will enjoy seeing some of the Studio residents enjoying the spooky season.

Mikasa Ackerman Character Ask 2

This Ask jumped out to me for a couple reasons, which I tried to include here. First, this is just kinda a weird crossover, which I like. Mikasa, for as long as she’s been in the Studio now, still hasn’t picked up on every little fashion trend or whatever from other worlds. I thought her initial misunderstanding would be cute but understandable. I also think this could, potentially, spin into a follow-up Ask or something later if there’s interest. It’d require someone to Ask the right question, but maybe we’ll get to see Mikasa try out a goth look somewhere down the line.

Clean Break, Page 7

Here’s the seventh page of our Straight Ongoing comic, “Clean Break”. There were two scripts submitted for this page, but they went in pretty different directions and I didn’t feel like I could reconcile them. Instead, I just went with the one that felt like a better direction for the comic, although I did make a small change. I’d misread one part of the script, but liked my misread a bit better so I went with it, hopefully no one will mind. I think Armin tapping out and then Mikasa and Eren getting a romantic one-on-one moment makes sense as we near the end of this comic. I expect at most 1-2 pages more based on where we are, but we’ll see how things play out.
