my name is michi. i go by he/him pronouns, and i’m above 25.
i decided i would finally jump onto the neocities ship after having being bitten by the front-end coding bug once again (thanks, toyhouse!). but coding fun aside, i’ve ruminated on why i truly want a site like this, and i’ve realized, that maybe, this would combat my own existentialism of this internet life? after weaning on these aggregate social media websites for so long, only to see that they’re slowly being dismantled into less enjoyable experiences because of profit-making decisions… one has to wonder how to maintain a stable presence here. plus, i’ve repressed so much decentralized web experiences of the late 2000’s that i’ve enjoyed and experienced.
anyways, i’m mainly an artist. been drawing casually since i was a wee kid, living the best life on a windows xp computer while clicking through the pages of deviantart around mid-2008. my handle is based on the designation for enker, a character from mega man classic whom i consider to be dear to my heart. i’ve been a mega man classic head for almost a decade, even though i haven’t played most of the games.
- mega man classic
- osamu tezuka (notably black jack and metropolis)
- aviation (very casual about it, though, but if you show me a picture of a plane i will jump up in joy)
- there's other things i like which i'm not 100% invested in, but i'm pretty sure these significantly did something to my brain, namely:
- gunbuster & diebuster
- flcl (the pillows really did something to my brain. also canti too)
- super robot monkey team hyperforce go!
- gunnm: last order (i haven't fully read the original gunnm, but i'll get to that sometime!).
- some of satoshi kon's movies, namely perfect blue, paprika, and millennium actress.
- ace attorney (only played up to apollo justice and the first miles edgeworth investigations game)
- the mega man battle network anime
- i grew up in brooklyn, ny. i currently live in
REDACTED, BUT SOMEWHERE IN THE US . - i've never formally taken any art classes; i'm self-taught.
- my sona is a sausage ram. why? because i'm an aries, and i think sausages are really funny.
