ENTP CRONA DUMP
Not going back on my word, just forgot to post a dump of "ENTP Crona" stuff I planed to just post all at once in a year, but after trying to stop doing stuff like that, I just thought I post what I had and be done with it.
, the thing even I don't really find funny, but I think I have to do it to get it out and book end it. A lot of it isn't really funny, some of it may sound a bit edgy or abrasive, but it's just in good fun, still putting it under the "keep reading thing" because of the amount and shittyness of the "content" Enjoy or yeah...sorry
ENTP Crona experiencing a soul rejection, screaming in agony because of not being able to deal with figuring out if "video games are art" or "video games aren't art" is the more contrarian oppinion at the moment
ENTP Crona reading shizophrenia symptoms on google "Wow, he is literally me"
ENTP Crona fleeing into the desert, going down a hole to cry
Ragnarok "Wait, the cow already killed Medusa a year ago, why we doing this bitch shit again?"
ENTP Crona "I posted a deliberately controversial and edgy meme into the group chat again, when they all see it, I wont be able to deal with how angry everyone will be..."
Soul: "You cant just nonstop spam shit on the internet, people will think you don't have a life"
ENTP Crona: "But I kinda don't..."
Soul: "Still writting on every single subject for 10 hours straight must be tiring and exhaustive, take a break"
ENTP Crona: "But I wrote everything in the last 5 minutes
Soul: "Heh, dont like partys either? Guess reading the room can be stressful even for somebody as cool as me sometimes-"
ENTP Crona "No, I can read it just fine, just then choose to say the thing that sets the roof on fire and regret it five seconds later.
ENTP Crona trying to figure out if Maka subscribes to the theory that Holden is a child abuser himself in "The Catcher in the Rye", only if yes, to arguee that not even the creep teacher was one and it is a misreading, and its actually about idk, read it in school so cant even come up with an explantion.
ENTP Crona trying to cheer up a crying Maka, after she got made fun of for liking bad music by Soul
"No, I like Speeding bullet 2 heaven too! Well except the Beavis and Butthead skits, even I am not that contrarian"
ENTP Crona curled up in the corner of the dark dungeon, not able to face the world, cause liking Ringo Star is to mainstream now but changing to hating him is just too painful...
ENTP Crona after everyone gets confronted with their lives just being fiction
"Well actually I prefere the anime ending"
But after mostly everyone agrees
"But, actually the manga works in a certain way afterall-"
ENTP Crona during the anime only scene where Maka and Crona talk about Maka's mom - its the same scene lol, remember those 4th wall breaking snide comments Crona barely managed to not blabber out loud lol
ENTP Crona "Marvel movies were allways bad"
Marie "Oh you aren't dumb and incompetent!"
ENTP Crona "Why did it took me 8 hours to put together the IKEA table?"
Marie "Oh dont be to hard on yourself, screwing in the table legs upside down could happen to anybody!"
Maka confronting Medusa: I'm here to save ENTP Crona and Mary!
Medusa: Nah, they both are still stuck in the maze going in circles
ENTP Crona after a tourist asks for directions in Death City: "I'll be honest, even though I am living here for years now, I myself cant deal finding my home without google maps"
ENTP Crona "I'm the Joker, baby! (Jared Leto version)"
ENTP Crona "-oh so a glorbo, or smol bean, cinamon bun is a charachter like Paulie from the Sopranos!"
ENTP Crona after trying to read "Finnegans Wake" "Damn, thats how high I still have to climb..."
ENTP Crona watching X:RA "Wow, I actually get 90 percent of the wordplay! This show is great!"
MGMT Patty : "Time to pretend..."
*ENTP Crona visualising all the different ways to take out and kill the people around*
Ragnarok "And I thought I was the psychopath! We aren't even eating souls anymore, whats guipi wrong with you?
ENTP "Grocery shopping is boring and I thought about the 3 different storys I'll never write down enough for one hour..."
ENTP Crona "-and that's why the metodology that is used to diagnose diseases by only relying on a checklist of data points that may have many different origin points is flawed
Stein "I am the doctor with 10 years experience, take your antibiotics prescription and get out!"
Stein, litting a cigarete after ENTP Crona goes out after apologising "Damn, the kid may be right, shit..."
ENTP Crona be like "Actually, I think Epstein is still alive"
ENTP Crona "Yeah Myerrs brigs and Horrorscopes are the same... Because they both actually are describing something and aren't completly wrong, if you know you know...
ENTP Crona actually getting a tatoo even though it is a stupid thing to do in general, because thats the only way to remember Maka's birthday. Cause aint nobody remembering more than 4 digits...
ENTP Crona using all experience and time to reflect, to start a dramatic uplifting speech that leads into Maka defeating the Kishin with a punch- Ah wait thats just what happened in the anime again lol
ENTP Crona: "I wore a dress for most of my life, yet that is not as embarassing as riding on an electric scooter"
ENTP Crona "Oh ofcourse I'm to scatterbrained and lazy to actually finish a webcomic, that's why I included an in universe callout by a charachter, so I will stay motivated out of spite and want of being better than those, proving the mean pixels wrong!"
ENTP Crona: -the setting being the aftermath of a nuclear testing site is a brilliant synedoche of our society pre and post world war 2, how the atomic age is nearly unrecognisable, being both so much more advanced that previous incarnations do not even look human in retrospect, while exagerating ourselfs into cartoon versions of ourselfs do to paranoia and stereotypes, shared faster and faster, that we soak up like Sponges, being the perfect worker and consumer in one - in a way thats Rock Bottom, the breakdown of communication, only restored by recognising the humanity of the other, even if they look at us with even more potent disgust than we already do.
Maka: Wait, I thought these iceberg videos were just supposed to list of fun facts and triva about Spongebob
ENTP Crona: What gave you that idea, Maka?
TERF Maka: I STILL hate J K Rowling
EC: "Borat is racist-"
M: "No the joke is that he exposes the prejudices of the common american person-"
EC "against Kazakhstanis"
M: "No no- wait... you are right..."
EC: "If MF Ghost was with the culture, it would have used Phonk instead of Eurobeat"
EC: "Where the fuck is Marioh Judah?"
*EC annoys excalibur into quitting*
EC :"Im like prince, everybody thinks In gay but actually im homophobic-"
EC: "Non-cellular phones actually had their purpose - like if somebody called them, you would either know nobody is home, or the person who answered could either inform you where the one you are calling is if you didnt reach the person or just find them - also the fact it was in the same spot ment nobody lost it and could allways find it when needed and it never ran out of battery, also-"
M: "If you don't like the phonecase I gifted you just say so...
R: "Dude, dont we still use mirrors for comunication"
EC "Think Im constrained by the limitations of canons?"
TRAD Tsubaki "Well they didn't make a sign of the cross in the church, so they kinda deserved being slayn by Ragnarok..."
M "Hey you are looking down, everything ok?
EC "Thanks for caring, but the thing is, to explain it all, all the connections and reasons and evidence would make me just look more weird and whiny, and this all, including the fact that I cant even say why I cant say without being whiny and long winged is part of it...
EC "I used trouble not descending into negative loops of self pity and disgust with myself and the world... But then I just developed a hyperfixation on not-having-hyperfixations"
???? Death: IDK
EC *reading the bible* "It even predicted people obssesing over lolcows with the whole golden calf story, damn...
EC: Rip Kissinger
EC: Slouching? No, I'm just posture-divergent
EC: I do love myself - one has to love even their biggest enemy...
EC in the future:
M: Are you really ready for children?
EC: I accidentally watched a trailer for despicable me 4, and after hearing all the pandering 80s song and repetitive family hinjix humor I just thought "Oh, how cozy would this be to watch with my Kids and Wife!"
So yeah, I CAN deal with it

About this blog / UPDATE
So I decided, again, that in the end I think I will try to stop posting on this blog. There are many reasons, but I think the main one is just my bad impulse control. It's fun to mess around and interacte with intersting things and I appreciated the likes and stuff, but its just to easy for me to waste my time and mind on some weird social media spiral, refreshing likes and tags and shit lol. Ofcourse, I tried to "abstaine" before, be it a month, a week, a couple days, hours, minutes - but in the spirit of these manga that we all still love even if we shit on them, gotta try again, not give up, nomatter how much it takes. So yeah, thanks for all, and sorry if this sounds dramatic or worrying, it just is what it is. I will try to only log in to post new chapters, promo art, iceberg videos and etc on the other blog, leaving this as an archive (cause I hate when people delete their stuff lol) Also not sure about the screencap blog, will try to quee up something once a week but I will see how tempting it will be to just go back into full freak obssessive addict mode lol.
(like I hope that making it so official and dramatic will for once shame me to not go back on my commintments and promises, man I'm really starting to relate to Spirit lol)
Anyways, if I dont respond to you or something like that, thats why, worst case you can write to me at [email protected] , even with a throwaway email.
Anyways, don't know how to end this, so I guess I just say... God Bless and Good Luck (and if you expected a "yeah...sorry" you just got one)

On Adaptions, Intepretation, Canon and ©opyright
I think about winding down my low-effort posting and trying to focus on going back to my works speaking for themselves, so lets try one "intellectual" essay, one more time atleast.
And the topic is on the question of the state of derivative work (fanfics but also other shit?...)
Maybe this will be my thesis statement for if in the future, during the trial deciding my execution method, when the point of my comic and even iceberg gets discussed Had to use pastebin cause something screwed up with the text length lol: https://pastebin.com/AwBwsfHT

Yeah those promo covers wre legendary and dont let anybody tell you otherwise

The Soul Eater manga has an awful start with the fan services, inconsistent art style, and a meh moon arc overall but the characters are the best part of the manga.. okay well not all I didn't care much about Noah and his lackeys but the book Eibon arc was fun so I don't hate it that much
also, the art did get better over time and the extra art plashes are cool to see (I wish they somehow added that Gorillaz/early 2000s art vibe in the show.)

Spirited away Spoilers
Level 99 media literacy is understanding that Chichiro knew that her parents werent among the pigs at the end, not because some memorisation or trick or whatever, but because her charachter development from whinny brat into self confident hardworking brat made her realise her parents were never "pigs" (in the prejorative sense)

You must live on a strange planet. Your tags aren't funny at all. And Mifune doesn't appeal to girls as a "pretty boy to ship with other pretty boys." That's not why girls like Stein or Spirit either. I'm sending this because your generalization is extremely offensive.
As a girl I can't speak for why Mifune would appeal to boys. But I can speak for the girls.
The reason ALL of these characters appeal is due to their complexity as characters! I'm going to talk anime perspective first here because it's more brief.
Mifune: a warrior who has taken time to hone and perfect his craft. Didn't seem to have a purpose in life, just taking jobs where he could. Until Angela. Then he makes a 180-degree turn and shifts his entire life's focus to protecting her. He has a great compassion for children, for those who can't defend themselves. He'll fight not to kill most of the time, giving those second, third, fourth chances. We see it in his repeated compassion to Black Star, and also to Sid. But then the moral conundrum! He's chosen to protect the defenseless, but he doesn't mind if that means choosing to fight for the "evil" side. How does he truly feel about this? Is his morality truly that grey?
Stein: presented as a villain in his introduction so powerfully that you don't believe for sure he's on the side of good for practically the entire series. You keep waiting for the betrayal, the slip-up. Is he going to target a student or someone else for his dissection experiments? Is he going to go mad at random? Is he going to join Medusa willingly and fight for her "new order?" Or is he just the victim of madness? He claims to want to fight for "good" but then the madness takes him to the witch. We are never certain with Stein, right up until the very end! We can't be certain of him really until after Marie saves him from the madness. What a combination! The unknowns about what he's truly thinking, his inherent battle with "mental illness" (madness), and then the tension of what's going to happen to him in the end: will he fall entirely, or be saved? Which does he truly want?
Spirit: presented as a disloyal womanizer, a boozer, and...Death's weapon!? Already a conundrum. Are we supposed to hate this guy or think he's cool? From his very first appearance, just like Stein and Mifune, we are not given a box or stereotype to fit him into. Then we soon discover he was violated in his youth, experimented on, betrayed by his long-time partner in the anime all about trust with one's partner. We get to see him fight competently and powerfully, we get to see him make thoughtful and wise decisions. We get to see him having various breakdowns and various responses to the fear of losing the ability to be with his daughter. We see him lonely and desperate. And we see him at the bar, his only friends the girls who serve him drinks. And we see that he adores his daughter to the point of staying awake three days and nights just to send her "good vibes" for her test, and buying her a gift that he never bothers to check to see if she likes! Because he didn't buy it to build himself up in her eyes, but just as a gift of celebration. (Sad that backfired on him.)
All three of these characters have a complex morality that doesn't fit into any stereotype or any box. Stereotypes are presented for each of them in their own ways, but they break them at every turn.
It's neat how that aligns with the overall question of the show, regarding where moral power comes from and is there any true morality. Each character plays into the question fantastically simply by each of their natures.
And, this is true for the manga as well. Each character's story simply goes farther and ends differently, but these moral questions? Remain at the end. No conclusion is reached for any of them. Mifune doesn't get a chance to reach a conclusion, but he is true to his presentation until the very end; Stein blatantly states the morality will always be a question for him; and Spirit's life is flipped upside down, but he's still the same person.
So, no, as previously stated, your generalization that girls like these characters to ship them with other pretty boys is wrong and offensive. We like the characters because they are interesting characters!
Also, a boy doesn't have to fall into a "pretty" stereotype to be interesting OR to be shipped. Examples from other animation off the top of my head are Senshi from Delicious in Dungeon, Vox from Hazbin Hotel, and Greg from Steven Universe. Three characters with deeply interesting stories!! The stories! We don't like or ship them because they're pretty. It's the stories!
I can't even vote in your poll since your premise is so wrong.
I mean this is a good and interesting answer, yet still its hard to walk on eggshells and make jokes that everyone finds funny (especially when I joke about myself often so I hope it makes it clear that its tongue in cheek atleast partly)
Still I think its dishonest to imply that many anime fans dont just ship charachters cause they get off to it - Like when we look at what boys ship, its often the two hottest female charachters, like I found out that even in kids cartoons like Kim Possible instead of the basically confirmed relationship, people rather say "Oh the teenaged girl is hot and the henchman lady is hot so I like them together!"
Ofcourse some may genuinely say "No actually I dont care about that aspect, its-"
But to say that not a significant amount does is just in my oppinion ridicolous, and maybe its impolite to say but thats just my blog, if people dont like it, it is what it is🤷‍♂️

The Mifune meme made me realise "wait, people dont really talk about him that often, dont they?"
Think about it, isnt it strange? He appeals both to boys as the stoic badass samurai ("Omg he doesnt need a demon weapon, his soul is worth 99!") and to girls as a pretty boy to ship with the other pretty boys (as they do with Spirit and Stein, but maybe Im being too dismisive and thats cause those two have shared backstory)
But no matter how controversial it is to say that what I just implied, it's no question that Mifune had all the atributes to be made into a fanfavorite - "Oh he's so cool and serious but he also protects the innocent look how friendly he is with kids!" "Wow is he a bad guy or good guy??! What intrigue" "wow look how epic his battles with BS are!" and (manga spoilers) "Wow what a dignified death, how tragic and sad, yet how beautiful!"
The joke is, this might sound as if I was some fanboy crying about people not appreciating a charachter - but the thing is I dont really care about him myself lol.
Like on an "intelectuall" level I get that I should but somehow he was allways just ok, had cool scenes and is more likeable than not, but somehow he never really "connnected" or "resonated" with me (what zero demon weapons does to a mf?)
So with that said:

Oh interesting catch with the soul inspiration, would make sense with being an artificial human - does it imply more a frankenstein than robot situation with Gopher🤔
Tumblr media
Aka: Ask me about Gopher and Noah.
I love the hell out of them, but I realize I love my interpretation of them and they were sorely under utilized in canon.

maybe I should just log off instead of using this as some twitter2.0 but Idk, after seeing a random youtube video which point basically is "anime is about porn and pedophilia and thats good!" I had to vent somewhere.
man this is why I never identify as an "anime fan"
But imagine the medium that birthed "Ashita no Joe" reduced to shows like "Loser rejected by everyone gets reborn as lvl 999 god dark mage and has a harem of all fetishes and loves his sister and his mom and-"
Like I know this shit is a bad habit of mine, but am I the only one? Doesnt this seem ridicolous to anybody? "The reason why this medium is good is not the freedom of animation, its creativity but that its PORN!" Not even tastetul arthouse french pervert shit but just sacharine pastel shit, like it isnt even unique, its reducable to tags and cliches even the way people talk about it. "man of culture xddd"
Like I don't even know what I'm even trying to say but imagine basically throwing all classic shows into the trash, imagine if somebody said "real literature fans dont read classics, just harry potter fanfics, if you disagree what do you even like about books you fake fan!"
Idk man, i dont know, this probably is punishment for going back into bad habbits, putting the head into this toilet bowls, like I aint better making shitty memes and ranting here but I dunno man.
I wish I just had played ping pong for 5 more hours instead lol

Interesstinf point, yeah I had heard and thought about the whole weird subtext of the weapns kinda being supposed to be subservient (even remember that in one moment while being a bitch Maka said something like "Your my weapon and I am the mesiter so shut up and listen!")
I think SE Not for all its many many many problems kinda went more into the direction with weapons being seen as suspicious till they learn to control their powers but even that is kinda ignored after the first pages or so lol.
But yeah its interesting to think that weapons are a creation of witches and just that alone could be seen as reason enough for "humans" to discriminate against them out of suspicion.
Maybe the whole subservient language is there as a consequence of Lord Death having to compromise with wider society to protect the weapons by saying "Look they are under literal control of a master (meister just means master in german) so its all groovy dont worry..."
But yeah I agree its something that could have been explored more, especially with Tsubakis bro becoming evil partly because he was insecure in his identity as a weapon do to lacking abilitys and his actions were kinda the reversal (a weapon taking over, weilding the master, not being weilded himself etc)
Also the mangas theme at the end with overcoming the hatred could have been stronger if the weapons were like a mediator - someone who were experimented by witches, rejected by society, yet found a way forward - the "no more death scythes" thing could be seen as a gesture of "Yeah you made us suffer but we are willing to forgive and move on, are you?" Instead of just all witches and humans forgetting a conflict do to one common enemy thats basically gone now.
But yeah enough of my rambling. Glad you shared your view, and dont worry about not being a native speaker - doesnt stop me from rambling without auto correct all day long😂
Which "lore" and stort details in Soul Eater do you dislike the most? Curious on other takes, especially when my own are controversial already so I'm no one to judge lol
i'll take your ask as an opportunity to dwell on something i think most soul eater fans rarely (or never) think about: the mentality surrounding weapons in the world of soul rater. to me, it's obvious that there's a whole racial superiority thing going on. the fact that weapons are supposed to just give up their lives for their meisters without second thought?? it might look and sound very beautiful, with the whole "soul sacrificing his life countless times for maka" thing (that never sat right with me btw), but when you look deep into it, it's actually very sad.
now, i don't think this is a problem in itself, just the way ohkubo handled it. he presented a type of oppression and instead of making the characters (especially the weapon ones) actively fight against this oppression, he normalized it and made it look very romantic and emotional (again, the soul and maka situation).
if he wanted to keep this oppresion to give his world-building more depth, he could've at least added a resistance, weapons that fight against this mentality. it would open many doors for him to develop on the dynamics between weapons and meisters, create more internal conflicts between them, and so on. so much wasted potential, urgh..
(i guess this whole opinion is a very unpopular one since everyone seems to find self sacrifice scenes peak romance but whatever i had to say it 🥲)
