What's your ‘this is literally me’ media?

[apearl]

My question is if anyone has a book/movie/show (or a character from one) that feels like it's a lot like your life but in a different format? I'm mostly posting this because I wanna hear other people's versions of this. If you got some media that feels semi-autobiographical to you I'd like to hear about it. :)

I have one, guess I'm not that original as a person. The one that resonates with me a lot is My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness by Kabi Nagata. It's a manga which talks about her life (mostly her struggles with mental/physical health, socializing, and finances as a young adult.) She's just so raw and honest in that book and I think that's why I like it so much. She doesn't avoid the taboo topics at all. I heavily recommend to lonely people, especially sapphics.

I'm more a combination of Jerry Seinfeld & George Costanza.
Too many character traits to list here.

i feel like one of those 13 year olds on tiktok who say they relate to sayori because they got sad once but i swear i'm being so deadass.

 

[deinocheirus]

[adiosToreador]

i'm literally just tavros nitram from homestuck,,, there are no characters that could possibly be any closer to who i am as a person. i am him and he is me and i am 100% serious it's like andrew hussie just decided to put me in the comic

You might think I'm being ironic, but I'm not. This image perfectly represents a subhuman like me.

I was going to post something more graphic, but I think this image says it all.

Yozo Oba in Aoi Bungaku, or novel adaptation No Longer Human.
As the protagonist itself is based on the author's real life experiences, I guess it's closer to say I feel a deep connection with his interpretation of life.
It's bizarre how closely resonating his thought processes seem, even if it's a semi-autobiography.

This post made me realize i relate to no one

tomoko...... sadly.

 

[camusfan_ig]

Haichi from NANA and Mob from Mob Pyscho :p They're both characters I deeply relate to

 

[dontsaveher]

This is so random but my favourite part of watching The Super Mario Brothers Movie was the scenes with Lumalee

Here's a video for of said scenes for those who haven't seen it:



People around me seem to be bothered by my casual pessimistic and nihilistic views but you get to a point when life just seems like a joke and can't help but to laugh - favourite quote is definitely "there's no escape, the only hope is the sweet relief of death"

 

[BrainSplatter]

I relate to characters who have dark pasts, who've been through trauma, pain, chaos and addiction. Sometimes it feels so real like I'm watching myself the acting so good!

Christiane F.
Rue Bennett
Fiona Gallagher
Beth Harmon
Effy Stonem
Ginny Miller
Rae Earl
Beth Moss
Tracy Freeland
Susanna Kaysen
…and the list goes on.

Haichi from NANA and Mob from Mob Pyscho :p They're both characters I deeply relate too

I really relate to lots of characters. I couldn't even name a single one lol, but between my one of them is probably is Jade harley from homestuck or sayaka miki from madoka magica.

Wings of Desire (1987) dir. Wim Wenders. Living vicariously, having a big heart that no one can see, going unnoticed, growing lonely, aching, loving, isolation; these form the fulcrum of the movie. I kin Cassiel and Damiel.
Maybe Infinite Jest? I love Hal Incandenza and Kate Gompert's anhedonic dialogues

 

[fallingbehind]

My Mad, Fat Teenage Diary (without the romance). The show is brilliant, but its less lonely than the books, which I adore.

 

[Arvayn]

My profile on this forum is based around one of the final bosses from one of my friend's TTRPG campaigns.

Spoiler: The sheet of the character, if anyone cares.

She is dressed in leathers and has a very wide-brimmed hat with a single feather on top, on top of being visibly armed to the teeth, akin to a mercenary. Known to be elusive, and with a mysterious past to boot.

[Perks]
Death's Touch - For the duration of the battle, all healing and maximum health increases are disabled. Everything with "Immune" Health has their Health set to Toughness x 10.
Reaper's Speed - Each enemy slain by Arvayn gives Arvayn an extra attack.
Merciless Death - Those slain in battle while Arvayn is present are given true death. They will no longer able to be brought back by anything short of an omnipotent god.
Face The End - For the duration of combat, everyone except for Arvayn loses 5% of their Maximum Health at the end of their turn.
Deathless - Cannot be killed by conventional means. When reduced to 0 Health, will be banished from the universe for an indeterminate amount of time.

[Items]

Undertaker - An over-sized black musket engraved with white skulls. Roll a 1d2. On a 2, the target is killed instantly. Uses Ranged. 2 turn reload.
Gravethorn - While ordinary in appearance, this smallsword has a strange dark red aura stuck to it. Can attack as a free action. 1d10+Spirit magic damage that reduces the target's Maximum Health.

I was debating what username to use while creating my account, and I decided to go with personalizing around this character since it has a fitting subject matter regardless. Though, I do not actually identify with it personally.

As for myself... I'd say I am the most similar to Meursault, from Camus' "The Stranger". I self-identify with many of his beliefs, and similarly to him, I am rather indifferent to good and evil (I do not go out of my way to commit either, though I have a wide variety of acquaintances of all sorts of both conventional and taboo moralities). Maybe one day, that will come to punish me as well.
