Wanting to give everyone a nice shout out that today is Shantae's 19th anniversary. I know there are many folks celebrating on her special occasion, but we only have 1 year more to announce her 20th anniversary.

How would you like to celebrate?

Now that the game has been out on all platforms for a year (and slightly longer if we include Apple Arcade), I think it's high time the following pages were unlocked for general editing, as they can be fleshed out with real information rather than pre-release guesswork:

• Coral Siren

• Empress Siren

• Fillin

• Harmony

• Lobster Siren

• Plink

• Seven Sirens

• Zapple

The following aren't 7 Sirens pages, specifically, but have also been locked for some time and are probably safe to let people edit by now:

• Bonelegs

• Ikki

• Mermaids

• Nagas

• ScorpGals

• SlimeGal

• The Art of Shantae

I am not sure how often the moderators/managers/people with this level of power swing by, but since there are a bunch of pages that need unlocking, I figured it'd be better to put it here rather than pester a bunch of people individually. Hopefully this little request is granted!

Hi. Busy with school right now. I also need a little bit of time to get the concept art out.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. Did I ever mention that there were other guardians out there other than the half genies? It is said that there is a man made of metal that swoops in from propeller town and takes care of business. His rocket propelled boots can take him up to Mach 3 speed and his blaster is as hot as a nuclear bomb. But fear not. He is here to save the day. He is...

Aeronaught, the beloved metal defender of propellor town.

Meanwhile, his arch nemesis Techno-baron is planning something evil. He seeks to take over the city and convert it into a WMD. Can Aeronaught stop him in time? Tune in next week for another episode of Aeronaught.

(On a serious note, you guys can leave suggestions in the comments on how to improve upon the design. I thought this would be a cool character to develop.)

I asked Wayforward (Of Shantae and Ducktales Remastered Fame) To Give Me Recommendations on what Class Shantae Should Be, they Recommend making her a Popstar (Source: https://twitter.com/WayForward/status/1389276505063137282),

I also Ask them If They Have had the chance and thoughts on those impressive shantae Miis they said the haven't had the chance to try, but do Condone Making Shantae

So any thoughts?

Should I play the game?

This is not the final sketch. It still needs some improvement.

This is gonna be long, just so you know lol

I formed a theory shortly after playing some Shantae. It's not much and the theory just suddenly came to mind, but I think the games may take place somewhere in the distant future. Some of the dialouge in 1/2 Genie Hero and Seven Sirens, coupled with how the environments look kinda makes me feel like these events are happening long after something took place in their world. I know Rotty mentions going on the web in Risky's Revenge, but that was more of a visual gag. Even in their world full of magic they still rely on technology, and there are direct references to somewhat more modern things that we have in those 2 games specifically. In 1/2 Genie Hero near the beginning of the game, Shantae talks about reading comics and eating ice cream, and in the 100% ending Uncle Mimic mentions unearthing something related to a bicycle, which makes me think they were something people already invented but stopped using for whatever reason. In Seven Sirens, part way into the game Sky's "boyfriend" and Squid Baron make a deal with each other, so Sky and Shantae are sold as mint condition toys to Squid Baron. Selling items online, especially things like plushies or action figures is something that's quite common on sites like eBay, but also something people have only been doing fairly recently, and may have been something that carried over from long ago. Again, this isn't much, but still. The reason I feel like the environment gives off this "distant future" vibe is because of 2 things. #1 There aren't very many people around, and a majority of the lifeforms you encounter are very strange looking, some even humanoid but not fully human. The most people we ever really see are in Seven Sirens when people gather in the stadium to see the half genies, but even then it's most likely only a few thousand people at most. The lack of people probably has something to do with the Gaurdian Genies and the Genie Realm having a hugely negative effect on the population, since we don't see a whole lot of humans very often, it may have indicated that something bad happened to a lot of them. #2 Some of the technology and craftsmanship that's on display, like Propeller Town on Pirates Curse, the giant airships that Ammo Baron uses in 1/2GH, or the large underwater passageways that you travel through in Seven Sirens. Some of the technology has this old school steampunk feel, some of it functions with the assistance of magic, and some of it is just extremely advanced technology that we can't utilize at this point in time.

Well, that's all I have. I just thought it would be nice to attempt and expand my knowledge of the Shantae universe by thinking about what time period it's in. I'm probably wrong but it was interesting to think aout anyway

Why was I banned from the discord server?

Hey guys, this is another update on the 100% fan made comic. I have just finished Johnny Dash’s design. For those of you who don’t know, Johnny Dash is a character from an ID software platform called Monster Bash. This character design was inspired by the popular Hunter x Hunter character Kilua Zoldyck. The image shown down below. He is to the right of Shantae.

I want to stay true to both Shantae’s and Johnny Dash’s characters. I’m doing this for the fans. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

“Thanks to Uncle Mimic’s latest discovery on his travels, he decides to gift Shantae with some things from the old world that he absolutely knew she’d like: A Walkman, some headphones, and these strange rectangles known as musical tapes.

Nowadays, Shantae couldn’t be more happier to blast some tunes across the dunes on her off-peak hours as a guardian genie. That is, when she’s not protecting Sequin Land like she should be.”

..Sorry for the potential cringe I just dumped on here. I don’t normally do this sort of thing 😅

It’s just a youtube playlist I’ve compiled with a bunch of tunes from the Middle East and other countries that I think could musically fit into the series, if not just a handful of them. You be the judge!

I update the playlist regularly (check in the playlist description for any updates), but I think I’ve found all the songs that I could confidently fit into this Tinker Tub of a playlist. With 160 songs, I’m sure there’s bound to be a sizzling bhangra beat (or a frosty serenade) to get your rear into gear or even cool you down.

Please support the offical releases of all the artists involved!

Happy listening, guys!

I was thinking of making a comic about the adventures of Commander Keen after episode 8 (Battle of the Brains) and the events after the Seven Sirens. Characters include, but are not limited to Commander Keen, Johnny Dash, Cosmo, Shantae, Sky, etc. I’ll start small since I have to know what I am working with. What do you think? Should I do it?
