They’re kids from all over the world whose parents/guardians aren’t around for whatever reason who are just trying their best in a war torn world and they have far too much responsibility on their shoulders at such young ages and soo much trauma but they love and take care of each other because no one else can/will. They fight and make up, they commit crimes and acts of heroism (often at the same time), they’re terrifyingly powerful, they all have so many brain cells but forget to use them, they have fantastic character arcs, and they canonically stayed friends for life after the series ended.
have you seen them??
THE original found family of my life bro
sorry no thoughts head empty but they <3
Die Wilden Kerle:
Listen. I know nobody knows them. But they're a group of kids who play football together. And (especially after the second movie) their parents are just basically absent. They basically only have each other. By the fifth movie they live together in the woods. I am not able to accurately describe what's going on in these movies. At one point they're playing football on motorbikes. In the 5th movie there's vampires. Shit it wild. I love it. I can't even describe how influential these movies were to me as a child. Please let them get at least 2 or 3 votes. Please.
Mods note: I know DWK have absolutely zero chance against the Gaang, but I live them and I need everyone to know that.
Pov:Your Markus who got woken up at 3am with 1 hour of sleep and an exam tomorrow just to help his friends do stupid and risky shit instead of sleeping with shoes on in bed
Raban – His long hair and round glasses makes me believe he’s into the 70’s fashion and music. I can totally see him rocking wide-leg pants and patterned strong colored shirts.
Leon – For some reason I believe he would fit with 80’s fashion. Bomber jacket/letter jacket along with a baggy jumper and even a mullet would suit him pretty well.
Markus – Since everyone already knows he’s an emo, I’m going with goth instead. There’s a lot of different types of goth, but I think the ones that suit him the best is mall goth and emo goth. He would look great with some eyeliner and hair dyed in either red, blue, or purple.
Vanessa – I’d love to see her have an androgyne/tomboy style, similar to Kristen Stewart. That includes wearing blazer and ties as well as cutting her hair short.
Marlon – I see Marlon fitting the bohemian style. Out of the different boho styles, I think Nordic boho and boho grunge suits him the best. And of course he’s having long hair (although maybe not dreadlocks)
Jojo – I stumbled upon “soft boy aesthetics”, which is just perfect for him. The style includes lose pants, vintage sweaters in neutral colors and medium length messy hair.
Deniz – Inspired by @farabruh vision for grown up Deniz, I think he’d really suit in the rock n roll style. Black letter jacket, ripped jeans and pearcings would just be 10/10. And maybe a hat as the final touch.
The way gender and identity was such a side topic in DWK after the first movie and nobody really cared, made my gender crisis today way easier to deal with. Like Klette's gender wasn't discussed other then when Nerv was curious. That one wolf girl was literally called Koyote Karlheinz, (Karlheinz being a german mens name). I'm sure none of the Biester were cishet, neither was Fabi (Fabi literally the reason for 8y/o me's gender crisis)
Why the Dwk cartoon characters are in Realschule (Secondary school)
So first things first.
If anyone is confused about the Titel here
Realschule is secondary school in german.
Then there is middle school which is a little less complicated but doesn’t has as good as a qualification and then there is Gymnasium. That the best school to go to. It’s for the intelligent people.
So like if you’re stupid it’s middle school, for people who are a little better in school it’s Realschule and for the best it’s Gymnasium.
When I watched the show I always thought the Gang was on a middle school but then I noticed some little details wich I now want to share with you because why not.
First: The different subjects
In middle school you don’t have subjects like biology and chemistry but in season 2 episode 5 it’s mentioned multiple times that they have a biology project for which they need the skulls
Biologie = Biology
Secondly: How the school is build
I’m a middle schooler so I know that middle schools are often more shabby then the others. We also don’t have our own lookers like the other schools which leads to the next thing I found for my theory.
The school the Gang goes to has lookers wich we See in season 2 episode 8
Every one has a looker which is more of a Realschule thing.
Also it’s a really big school from what we have seen in the series and middle schools normally aren’t really big and luxurious
Third: The subjects 0.2
In season 2 episode 8 we also see the board in one of the classrooms. I think it’s the classroom of Kevin (Leon), Rico (Deniz) and co. Because they are a class under Tyler (Marlon) and Vanessa.
I like to think that they are 9th and 10th grade wich would also work out for my theory.
We see this on the board
It looks like Pythagoras or something in that direction wich is what the 9th graders in Realschule do. So from the stuff they do it would all suit for a Realschule.
The only thing that isn’t adding up is the students. I can kinda imagine the Gang being good in school besides Rico (Deniz) maybe wich we see had trouble in school.
But then there are die unbesiegbaren Sieger and Paul Moritz.
They don’t exactly give me the vibe of „intelligent“ so that’s a little loop hole there but other then that I think it could make sense.
I also couldn’t find anything online about what kind of school they go to and I think it’s kind of unimportant when you watch it in English but in german it’s kinda interesting to know.
Hope that all makes at least a little bit of sense.
Tell me what you think about it and if I overthought all that or if you think something like that too
