ICS is getting boring. Emily is the true goth of /co/.

>>156035745how the fuck do you misread S as a P
>>156035732You think they'll ever re-release/remake the DS game?
>>156036379Most likely not but there can always be a fan-remake.
>>156036379The what?
>>156035732I love goth lolis
>>156037437I hate lolicons. This is your second and final warning.

>>156037881Emily does not condone self harm
>>156038680Yeah that’s an emo thing.

>>156035732>Emily the StrangeWhat's so strange about her?
>>156040559It's strange that people remember her 20 years since she jumped off of skateboards into graphic novels
>>156035902Maybe he thought OP had a typo
>>156035732wonder how that animated movie's doing
>>156040622I never knew this existed until yesterday. I maybe have seen it once or twice but I never really cared much for Santa Cruz.

Wait what the fuck, this was a thing?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZoh1ui1yf0I don't know why it's in Chinese either
>>156037997this isn't goth music
>>156042887Man what?? This obscure franchise just keeps getting better and better.
>>156040741also Lenore, and creepy susie
>>156035732goth girls are a lame fetish, eyeballtank
>>156042931Yeah apparently it was from "Dark Horse China"I had no idea that was even a thing but I wouldn't be surprised if it got canned due to the Embracer buyout a year later
>>156042961I actually think the whole “goth” fad is severely overrated. Most of it actually just emo and scene garbage, or even confusing punk as goth. It’s not as attractive as people make it out to be.Emily The Strange is the closest thing to actual goth stuff I’ve seen lately since the original movement back in the 80s. Everything else is just post-rave, fucking gay gobbledegook.
i think i'm gonna draw my own design of Emily the strange to put on my teeshirt
>>156043602Post it when you do.
>>156043697if there is future threads of emily. sure i will.
>>156040741>/co/ gets to claim the OG goth girl>not included
>>156042877i gave storytime an honest try, but i couldn't get past the first few chapters since they are just grab bags about her personality and doesn't actually tell a story.
>>156043832It doesn’t have to tell a story. It can be just simple fun.
>>156035732Emily is a strange (heheh) series to work withI can easily imagine a cartoon series for her ala ( closest example) Randy Cunningham and Invader Zim, but from the music video she had they would kinda add things to her character to make it easier to write for her. She'd be made more punk than classically goth. Turned into a tech genius rather that a girl with the skill to Frankenstein machines together. Those sort of thingsThe main appeal is in the first 3 volumes but they'd go latter halfI'd like a cartoon for her but I think they'd not do it correctly
>>156042902Pop punkPunk is often tied to gothNot what I'd use or want for Emily, I just see the thought process
>>156043900>>156043832It was indeed made for kids who wanted a goth/dark strange tales series.
>>156044124Pop punk is more closely tied to power pop though.
>>156044135Again, not agreeing with the choice, just seeing the thought process from the makers angleI'd stick her with so etching like dirty night clowns or something from Creature Feature Classical or freakish stylesActually got any suggestions?Like to hear what works with Emily best
>>156044249Maybe>Husker Du>Rite of Spring>CKY/Foreign Objects/oiL>Iron Butterfly (maybe)>Joy Divisionidk these are just the first ones that came to mind. Someone probably would recommend something more fitting.
>>156044298I'm trying to think of any dark songs that use stuff violins, violas, cellos, etc.Can think of enough that don't have a rapid pace to them, a kinda anti-goth thingAnons of this thread search out, PLEASE!
>>156042887she is beautiful. I wonder if...
>>156035732I missed the window in the emily thread so I'll say ot hereOnly the first three volumes were properly goth, the latter were just about a girl who wears black getting a band.It was the Sam Mason of goth comcis
what kind of music a girl that was designed for skaters girls this would even listen to? blink 182, Marilyn manson?
>>156044806Why are you being a fag
>>156043832Start with Volume 3 or read the non-comic books
Emily feels authentically like a 14 year old goth girl. In that she is mostly cringe.
>>156043579Yes! Thank you.With the latter part I meanEmo, scene, and punk aren't goth.. they can be tied together but they mixing them doesn't make them classically goth Graves is a better rep of goth and she predates it in-universe.At most modern goth collective view comes from mall goth and metal heads
>>156044985Yeah but she's endearing in the morbid way.
>>156042887Her having a slightly beige skintone makes it look like an AI piss filter.
>>156045244Would it have been better had they stuck with her being paper white even if everything else had to have more vibrant color?
>>156045877Yes, because it's an important aspect of her design.
>>156045133she looks like a bitch
>>156044498if what?
>>156044249
>>156044249bands from today?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CB8fKyp7BtQ
>>156044402Maybe music before the Roaring 20s will do. I wonder if there are any more modern songs that sound like Eleanor Rigby.https://youtu.be/HuS5NuXRb5Y
>>156047976Was thinking stuff kinda likehttps://youtu.be/zmYDOd2e-64?is=vF1ZD6LTJY-Pr7jN
>>156048860Now that I think about it, Iron Butterfly would be a better pick than the other ones I mentioned based off what you’re going for. Even though they’re from the psychedelic era, their sound comes from Doug Ingle (singer/organist) who grew up playing piano in the church, and their music would later influence heavy metal, so their sound can get kinda dark and heavy. I just found out Doug died 2 years ago. RIP, he was a big influence to me back in high school.https://youtu.be/r8y9u0xB0pshttps://youtu.be/jwjsmmM450o
>>156035732This series is very [Strange] as it is both decently popular, yet still very niche. It hits the right amount of dark goth and whimsy into it that keeps it thereAnd it's mainly from the first three volumes. The latter three seemed more for either IP baiting or just toned down for a greater audience Hell, it's alt kid heaven put in hyper contrasting colors
>>156047775Decently fits.Thinking about a strobe party scene for ETS listening to this. The flashing on and off of lights and as the party goes on Emily cause more strange things to happen that we only see when the lights come by
>>156048983Thought I put this in
>>156044249Wait shit Ghost was perfect for this, fuck i forgot
>>156046553porn
I tried to read the comic a while ago but god damn it's kinda boring. I think I finished the part where it had a crossover with Elvira.
>>156049499Again, the third volume is the one with an actual plot and isn't just a bunch of short stories stitched togetherAnyone read the other books yet?
>>156049729The latter ones with a different artist?Yeah, in the story times see >>156044514For my opinion
>>156050332>latter ones with a different artist?I meant the sort of diary styled novels
>>156050759Then no, I did not
I wish we had more true goth shit like this in media instead of whatever the fuck we have now.
>>156047454>hippie, metalhead, glam, and emo came from gothWhoever made this pic is illiterate of subculute timelines
Okay so I found the reason for the emily thread recentlyGood news everyone! There apparently os a Emily The Strange movie being madehttps://emilystrange.com/blogs/news/emily-the-strange-animated-feature-in-the-works-from-bad-robot-and-warner-bros-pictures-animationBad new, some sources claim its going to be live action. It's a bit conflicting kinda but there's the chance, so..... fingers cross its like the first three volumes
>>156053569You think Skydance will do it?
>>156053569That was announced two years ago. Any updates since?
>>156053770Oh right yeah it's fucked
>>156055331I’m surprised it was getting a movie at all, given how its still relatively obscure during this “goth” fad renaissance we’ve had this decade.
>>156035732SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND EMILY
>>156056380Hello

>>156068763
>>156068744>>156068763>>156068805I love these album covers homages.
They should try their hand at animation again, maybe a show? I think it should some elements from The Strangers, such as the other characters just to add a bit more dynamic to the concept but overall keep its original, surreal style.
>>156052658post a better one then

thoughts on this?
>>156037795>TranShe's Chinese-Vietnamese?
>>156072903That's a great tradgoth band list, the inclusion of Skeletal Family and Xmal Deutschland is very pleasing to see. Whoever compiled this knows their shit. I'd have chosen differently for some of the songs though, peak goth Cure for my money is "One Hundred Years"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7kIB8HTE3k
>>156035732I remember wanting to get into Emily Strange back in the early 2000's but just never really found anything about it to get into. I guess there's some comics? I always liked the art I found online back in the day.
>>156073054That would explain why an animated pilot was made in China.
>>156072903The only band I like from this is Joy Division. They sound like that because they were bored of punk rock. Goth rock is just kinda boring to me.
>>156072903where is the smiths - how soon is now
>>156072903I'll try it out later
Here’s a coloring book.
>>156035732Does this even a fandom?
>>156077271It doesIt's just of those that doesn't overlap with Anons
>>156035732Ccuuttee
>>156035745Iguanas Cry Silently

>>156077759It’s honestly a shame how Nia is more popular than Emily. Must be from the “I can fix her” crowd.
