Miyazaki cares not for such nonsense.

A close-up of the same fluffy cat mid-yawn, mouth wide open and tongue curled, showing its soft chest fur. A fluffy, long-haired cat with blue eyes lies on a striped pillow, looking directly at the camera while sprawled comfortably on a bed. The cat stretches out on a bed with one front paw extended toward the camera, looking relaxed and slightly sleepy.

Life in much of Leopor is chaotic, with poor infrastructure for many, particularly outside the capital. Within it is the nation's concentration of wealth, evident in ornate, gilded architecture, lavish dress code, and minimum required bank balance for residency.

The accumulation of profit is their singular purpose. Everything is for sale in Leopor, from Daucan sprouts to Whisperstone massages, swords for hire, alley love, and dapper old men, willing to be your dad so you can marry into a wealthy family.

As natural herbivores, they are not especially deadly fighters, but their instinctive understanding of economics and market behaviours allow them to leverage wealth (both their own and that of others), to truly formidable effect.

I think Miyazaki is wondering how an Ijo tastes. He loves eating spiders.

#Ragdoll #CatsofBlueSky
A photograph of a seal point Ragdoll cat sitting upright on beige carpet in a hallway. The cat has striking bright blue eyes, a dark brown face mask contrasting with a fluffy white chest and ruff, and darker colouring on the ears and around the eyes. The fur is long and plush, particularly around the neck and chest. The cat is looking directly at the camera with an alert, slightly wide-eyed expression. White doors and pale yellow walls are visible in the background.

Its prey, the Thassik, is a bipedal reptile, towering up to 10 metres high, with exceptional strength & endurance, & scales that deflect most attacks. The Ijo Hunter requires machine like precision in their aim to strike the weak points around the Thassik's eyes.

Adaptable predators, they excel in stealth, tracking, trapping, mimicry & behaviour prediction. They value independence, privacy, patience, & intelligence following a philosophy vaguely analogous to Zen, if it was hunt-centric.

These fierce and deadly hunters have evolved an exceptionally specialised internal organ, capable of recycling bodily fluids ad infinitum. As such, they do not need to drink and are able to survive on the minimal water derived from their sun parched prey.

Close-up photo of a white cat paw with pink paw pads. The image is slightly blurred, showing the furry paw against what appears to be textured fabric or bedding. The cat's body is partially visible but out of focus in the background. Intimate close-up photo of a Ragdoll cat's face resting on a textured surface. The image captures fine detail of the cat's dark facial markings, white stripe, whiskers, and one visible blue eye. The warm lighting emphasizes the cat's fluffy fur texture. Extreme close-up photo of a Ragdoll cat's face taken from below, showing the cat lying on a yellow textured surface. The cat's striking blue eyes are prominent, along with its dark facial markings and white stripe down the nose. Long white whiskers are visible against the warm lighting.

And a picture of Miyazaki. He's soft.

And here's a poorly lit video of Miyazaki, because animating takes ages and I don't have all day to make the videos of him look high end. There's a darling picture as well.

Animating the trains has been the biggest pain, as you can see in the in screen recording.

Their small stature and exceptional flexibility allows them to move in silence, and hide in tight spaces, making them effective spies.
Still, war is never the desired by any Cenelin, who would prefer to drink with family.
What song does it look like they're playing?

The Cultures may not even be deterred by the diplomatic fallout, and international demand for intervention.
But the Cenelin aren't just cute and cuddly. They are also impressively skilled engineers, fully able to develop novel weaponry, and defensive buildings.

Now, we concede, the likes of the Ijo, or Djiurka Barr don't necessarily care about cute, and their populations would not object. Never mind that, Jardwinians would likely enjoy knowing they were violating some kind of taboo.
