Tea Time Emotiku
SPAM BOTS, 09/29/2023
No haiku today. I have been overrun by spambot followers. Besides bricks (this morning's topic), I've apparently been ...
Tumblr media
... called on the carpet by those who want to sell rugs. Why? Yes, I do like Rugby, but that doesn't mean I'm in the market for astro-turf. Anyway, I hope to return to haikuic hijinks tomorrow, but we'll see. Right now, I've got to lose this defender.

Frank’s hints on season 3 Part 1
If we’re gonna be on hiatus, may as well dig up the hints he gave for season 3 starting on September 13th 2019 (since that’s after season 2 ended) to get some speculations rolling.
cartoon-lover-38: are we getting more of Violet (and maybe Boyd) episodes in Season 3?
Frank’s response: Yep. (Challenge of the Senior Junuor Woodchucks and Astro BOYD)
caney768 asked: We'll we ever find out HOW DID SANTA DO SCROOGE WRONG!?!?!?!?!
Frank’s response: Spoilers. (coming up on the Christmas episode)
alongdwdfan asked: There will be a sports match episode in season 3?
Frank’s response: Kiiiiiiinnnda… (Rumble for Ragnorak)
saturngears asked: will gyro have any important moments in season 3?
Frank’s response: Yep. (Astro BOYD)
alysuns asked: Will we get Donald and Della sibling shenanigans? 👀
Frank’s response: Yep, there are some shenanigans. (This gonna be good! Halloween episode is one of them for sure)
shivang915-deactivated20191017 asked: Is Season 3 darker than season 2?
Frank’s response:  It is more adventurous in every sense of the word, and the stakes have never been higher.  After a full season of bringing adventure back to Duckburg, we were challenged to send the family out in search of bigger adventure in the world…and they may not like everything they find.
co27 asked:
are we gonna see more of penumbras development in season three, or is her arc more or less over now that shes gotten over her disdain for della?
Frank’s response: Yes (we’re confirmed to be getting a Webby and Penumbra episode this season)
beaglelover62 asked: Any hints to what's next for Lena in her emotional journey, now that her aunt is out of the picture (for now?)?
Frank’s response:  Cute that you think that Mágica would ever be out of the picture.
sleaveheralone asked: Which characters are going to be involved the most in Huey's arc?
Frank’s response: All of them
clusterduck28 asked: Can you tease one of the upcoming episodes, but in a form of a haiku?
Frank’s response: The gauntlet is thrown. Rise o purple challenger (Darkwing Duck likely). A book will lead them (probably the Isabella Finch book)
b-riot2k15 asked: Will we get to see Panchito and Jose again in season 3?
Frank’s reponse: Yes (Louie’s Eleven)
volcanicsands asked: Are any of the moonlanders planning to stay on Earth? Specifically any plot relevant characters, or perhaps some aspiring pet parents?
Frank’s answer: Spoilers (likely referring to the Webby and Penumbra episode coming up)
pixiesphere asked: Is it too early to ask for a OOC quote?
Frank’s answer: “Nothing beats the power of a big name guest star.” (Quack Pack)
undertelevisionskiess asked: Will we see Gladstone again?
Frank’s answer: Yes. Absolutely.
likelytowritesomestuff asked: Hi mr Angones! Can we expect an episode focusing on Launchpad?
Frank’s answer: Yes (Double O Duck You Only Crash Twice)
mellenabrave asked: Will we have more Boyd in the future? Pls give us the Robot son.
Frank’s answer: Absolutely (Astro BOYD)
sleaveheralone asked: Will we see Goldie again in season 3?
Frank’s answer: Yea
lophiii asked: Will Boyd befriend the other kids in the future?
Frank’s answer:  Yep. Big Boyd ep coming. (Astro BOYD)
trixielulamay asked: We’ve seen all the current FOWL Agents, but is there anyone we’ve seen so far who’s Ex-FOWL?
Frank’s answer:  Oh we haven’t seen all the FOWL agents. (fuel to speculate more on FOWL)
kittycatgundam asked: Will we find out more about Gyro in season 3?
Frank’s answer: Yes (Astro BOYD)
saturngears asked: can you describe the upcoming gizmoduck and gyro japan episode with one word?
Frank’s answer: Massive (Astro BOYD)
ginger-s-n-a-p asked: Will gosalyn and the rest of the kids interact?
Frank’s answer:  Yep
b-riot2k15 asked: Will there ever be a moment where Darkwing or at the very least Drake Mallard, will have an interaction with Donald, Della, or the kids?
Frank’s answer: Yes
rumblewithwendy-moved asked: another ooc gos quote ?
Frank’s answer: “You have a bit of a complex, don’t you?”
inuyugihakusho asked: Will there be sibling squabbles between Donald and Della?
Frank’s answer: Yes of course.
fuckinganxiousallthetime asked: Will there be more Dewey Dewnight in the new season?
Frank’s answer: How could there not be?
darkwing-bean asked: are launchpad and gosalyn gonna interact?
Frank’s answer:  Are you serious? Yes of course.
gasgun asked: Is anything you can tell us about Drake and Gosalyn's relationship in S3?
Frank’s answer: Drake claims that the main reason he became Darkwing to help other kids like himself.  Gosalyn is going to put that claim to the test.
sleaveheralone asked: Will Scrooge cry in season 3?
He’ll get more mad than we’ve ever seen him. (Challenge of the Senior Junior Woodchucks is one of those instances)
sleaveheralone asked: Will we ever find out why Donald and Della lived with Scrooge?
Frank’s answer: Yep (SO EXCITED FOR THIS!!!!)
itsonedollarhexedpuppet asked: Could you give an out of context spoiler about Gladstone?
Frank’s answer: He has never had to climb up stairs before.
saturngears asked: can you give us an ooc spoiler about gyro?
Frank’s answer:  Not his original hair color.
a-small-collection-of-nonsense asked: Out of context Beakley spoiler?
Frank’s answer:  Classified.
dwlpg asked: which word would you use to describe Huey’s arc in s3 ?
Frank’s answer:  Knowledge.
sleaveheralone asked: An out of context Goldie spoilers?
Frank’s answer: Sometimes you do get a second chance to make a first impression.
dwlpg asked: out of context spoiler about gandra ?
Frank’s answer: Secrets built upon secrets.
lesbiankiliel asked: is a sea monster going to eat scrooge's ice cream?
Frank’s answer: Spoilers
sleaveheralone asked: How many episodes does season 3 have?
Frank’s answer:  562 ½ minutes worth of DuckTales. (25 half hours most likely)
beaufonvilleranger1 asked: What will Gosalyn's New Personality be based on?
Frank’s answer:  Definitely original Gosalyn. We also talked a lot about the defiance, strength, and vulnerability of teen activists like Emma Gonzalez and Greta Thunberg, with a fierce sense of justice/right and wrong. The inherent goofiness and cockiness of Kate McKinnon. A little Tessa Thompson. A LOT of my youngest kid. And, of course, a METRIC TON of the amazing actress we got to play her.

La última Huella salió azul:
«La luz de las estrellas, ya lo sabemos, es el pasado. Cuando nos llega, quizá los astros que la emitieron ya están muertos, o siguen vivos pero muy lejos, y con toda seguridad no son los mismos. En The End of Everything (Astrophysically Speaking), Katie Mack cuenta que, de hecho, todo lo que vemos es pasado, ya que, aunque solo se trate de nanosegundos, la luz tarda un tiempo en rebotar en las cosas e introducirse por los ojos. Que la Luna está un segundo en el pasado, y el Sol está más de ocho minutos en el pasado, y las estrellas del cielo nocturno están en las entrañas de un pasado que puede variar entre unos años o milenios.
Vivimos, por tanto, instalados en un pasado perpetuo. La imposibilidad del «aquí y ahora», la instantánea del haiku, nunca estuvo tan cerca. No es de extrañar que nos entre el blues.
La radiación de fondo de microondas, o radiación del fondo cósmico, también nos llega en diferido desde el pasado más remoto, el Big Bang, hace 13,8 mil millones de años. Si miramos lo suficientemente lejos, dice Mack, podemos ver ese fogoso y distante universo encendido de radiación, cuyo resplandor nos llega ahora, tras viajar por el espacio, que lleva todo ese tiempo expandiéndose y enfriándose.
El ruido de fondo del universo, ese "primer latido", es cante jondo»

📷"Par Toutatis!"Advertisement:
Astérix is a character created by René Goscinnyand Albert Uderzo in 1959 for the French comic magazine Pilote. The series' growing success in Pilote got it published into albums soon after.
The year is 50 B.C. Gaul is entirely occupied by the Romans. Well, not entirely... One small village of indomitable Gauls still holds out against the invaders. Said village is the home of Astérix, who frequently goes on all kinds of adventures, often in order to foil the plans of the Romans. He is helped in his adventures by Getafix, the druid of the village who holds the secret of a Super Strength-inducing potion, and most importantly his best friend Obelix, a menhir carver who fell in a cauldron of the aforementioned potion when he was a child, making the effects permanent on him.
Since its creation, Astérix has become a prominent figure in French-Belgian culture, and has managed to acquire fame on an international level, a rare occurrence for a French-Belgian comic character. It has been translated in over a hundred languages, and the comic book series, currently 37 albums long, has been adapted into animated features, live-action movies, video games, theme parks, tabletop games and whatnot. It also notoriously features on mustard glasses.

Detective Conan Rewatch: Episode 937
Episode 937: "The Killer Fist of Talos (Part 1)”
Before watching this episode, on a scale of 1-10, how much are you looking forward to seeing it again?
5!
Favorite screencap:
Tumblr media
Haibara: “Great. I’ve stuck around Kudo-kun so much now even my face is getting stuck like this.”
Favorite moment:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Haibara’s little remark in regards to Conan using the “Shin’ichi-niichan said something about it” excuse.
Least favorite moment:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I guess the fact the most interesting thing in the episode happened literally the last two minutes? The buildup to this point isn’t terribly exciting.
What's one thing you noticed/realized about this episode that you hadn't before?
Tumblr media
Hm? I wonder if Kagami is meant to look like Dr. Tenma from Astro Boy, given the automatons his company makes.
On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate this episode?
*-shrug-* We’ll see how this goes!
Celebrate it!
Since I don't have access to a tablet and am too lazy to scan a drawing, have a (not exactly) summary haiku.
Studio visit
Impressive automatons
One used in attack
Next Episode: Episode 938
Previous Episode: Episode 936

Post 2: The Plight of Pero and the Postwar
There’s a lot to unpack from today’s readings, for sure. Heck, I could probably write at least 3 posts of content on that one Dower piece alone it was so dense. That being said, I’ll just touch on the manga and anime briefly:
Norakuro: 
The associated manga and anime served as an interesting period piece, especially when the surface level story is peeled away and the not-so-subtle propaganda begins to show. Based on the publishing date and period in Japanese history, I can only reasonably presume that the Rapid Dog Troop is a stand in for Japan and the pigs are obviously China (painting them in a primitive, backward way with a feudal leader and broken speech). At the time, Japan would have been at open war with China, so it makes sense that this story would carry themes of Japanese ultra-nationalism, the necessity of the “liberation” of East Asia, and the superiority of native military and incompetence of foreign ones. Even so, both the manga and anime short take inspiration in both comedy and design from Western (predominately American) cartoons such as Disney or Fleischer.
Tumblr media
Astro Boy:
After reading several chapters, it’s no question why Tezuka is the undisputed grandfather of manga and anime as we know it today. It’s very apparent in his style, both artistic and narrative, that not only does he take heavy inspiration from American cartoons and comics (heavy Disney and Popeye traces), but he weaves them into something uniquely his own, and in some ways even more nuanced than his role models. While some of the lines and story beats definitely feel a bit corny and dated today, for me a lot of weight in the darker themes present still ring true. The Hot Dog Corps Arc showed us a tragic yet ultimately happy tale of a dog, the man who loved him, and their struggles apart from one another. Additionally, the implication of animal experimentation, while treated with some levity in the manga, implicate and illicit some rather darker and more mature themes, also including but not limited to self-identity, what it means to be “human” (dog, robot, whatever), and the fragility of society (having two separate instances of a fallen alien civilization). However, there’s a lot of lightheartedness in Astro Boy, ultimately, with plenty of physical humor and fourth-wall breaks. I guess I’d say it does feel dated now, but it was definitely ahead of it’s time when it came out.
Tumblr media
