nemona feels like an obscure blorbo instead of the main rival character from the latest pokemon game because to get to her really good content from people who really get it, you first have to wade through the ocean of yandere pervert obsessive stalker annoying punchable bimbo amazon goddess interpretations of...

... a neurodivergent and possibly disabled high schooler who's desperately trying to make any friends or get any support from her rich neglectful family - while everyone in her school is jealous of their own imagined version of a privileged asshole version of her they made up - who deeply and platonically loves and supports the one new kid who agreed to take the time to get to know and respect her and her special interest without having to hold back her true self

unlike her, it's not great!

kinda feels like she has the same problem in our world that she does in hers.

#(except much hornier) #i hate to say it but i think her skin color has something to do with it #nemona pokemon #nemona #pokemon sv #pokemon scarvio #pokemon scarlet and violet #pokemon #nemonaposting #dog girl and goku memes are fine i guess #i legitimately cannot google her without a video of someone being cruel to her on purpose and making her visibly sad coming up #i don't think people like that really browse these tags but i hope they're not the reason she was not in the dlc footage at all #and thus may never get more screen time to actually be her best friend's 'rival for life' as promised before the 3 year cycle marches on #you know the dlc about nemona's best friend and 'greatest treasure' transferring to a school about the hardcore battles she's dying without #potentially abandoning her and sending her back to almost square one on having a reason to enjoy life #don't get me started yelling about that again #also i didn't mean platonically in a don't ship them kind of way you should absolutely do that if it lines up with your interpretations #i usually do in fact #just trying to emphasize the contrast between canon and fanart here #opinions of her already start off so low faith just because she's from the 10 fps pokemon game and i'll be real i wish she wasn't #i wish she and her friends were somewhere i could trust that they would be treated respectfully by their copyright holders

Apparently some people are upset because Leatherhead will be voiced by a women (Rose Byrne) in the new Mutant Mayhem movie.

Alright, if y’all are so upset about that then I guess these iconic male characters bother you too?

Because, SURPRISE, they are voiced by WOMEN!

#I hate TikTok sometimes #it also works vice versa #that’s the beauty of voice acting #male VAs voicing female characters #Linda and Tins Belcher from bobs burgers or LSP from adventure time #btw because people dont know and I actually have to clarify #the anime boys are ALL voiced by women in the original Japanese version #random thoughts #voice acting #tmnt #teenage mutant ninja turtles #tmnt 2023 #mutant mayhem #tmnt: mutant mayhem #Leatherhead #timmy turner #ash ketchum #son goku #bart simpson #monkey d luffy #naruto uzumaki

Since you people can't behave, I turned Goku into a protagonist of a shitty generic isekai anime.

Some people draw Dragon Ball characters like this. For a love of all that's holy put some muscle on those poor men, they look like a light breeze would snap their necks.

But hey, draw whatever you want, I am just an idiot on the internet.

Does anyone else just love Vegeta’s character development in GT? 😊

#dragon ball gt #dbgt #vegeta #like….I hate to bring up super BUT I have to give gt props for following up on Vegeta’s resolve on getting over Goku #I love how gt makes vegeta just try to better himself to protect those he loves whereas super just rehashes the eternal rival trope forever

i made this only using Wattpad, enjoy lmao

#dragon ball z #dragon ball #dragon ball super #dragon ball memes #I hate this so much #why is he making that face #he’s scrunkly #also dragon ball fan fictions are WEIRD bro #dbz goku #dbs goku #goku x reader #dragon ball goku

[scribz-ag24]

i wonder if they’ll ever acknowledge that misunderstanding of “you spared my life bc you knew i’d grow to have a heart”, bc if they did it’d be super funny

#kakavege #goku #vegeta #my art #underrated kakavege dynamic is the one they have on namek #where it shows that the only reason goku isnt beating the f out of vegeta when he lands #its bc he wants to fights him so bad #so he makes sure he lives through and is heales #while hating literally everything vegeta ever says or does #(understandably so) #this is only mildly unrelated to the pic #goku is a simple minded man ok #he's a master martial artist and a himbo at once #god bless him #i hate vegeta's face here but that's ok

alright I have a fandom hot take to get off my chest. It rubs me the wrong way a bit when I see people refer to Vegeta as Bulma’s (or occasionally Goku’s) pet. Honestly I’ve made the joke myself and I usually don’t mind it, but I feel a bit guilty/weird about it, and it’s taken me months to work out why. I think first there’s an in-universe reason. Vegeta’s actual backstory is that he was functionally Freeza’s pet for about three decades. And I don’t really want to compare his relationship with Bulma or Goku to his relationship with Freeza in a way that makes it sound like he just changed ownership. I’m pretty sure part of the reason the joke is so common is that Vegeta does call his own redemption(ish) arc “being domesticated.” (At least in English, I’m not worrying about the Japanese original today) It’s absolutely funny that he thinks of it that way, but I also think that Vegeta’s opinion can’t be trusted on anything, especially himself. It’s one of the more interesting parts of the character to me that he doesn’t quite think of himself as a person (a topic worth its own meta). He’s also got the aforementioned history of being dehumanized. Combining that with his internalized idea that the only valuable trait is strength and being kind or merciful or caring is just weakness, it makes sense that he might decide to label his character development as “domestication,” even though that’s not really a good description of learning to find contentment in peace and care for others. So part of why that line is funny is the irony, even if there is some truth to it. Taking it at face value and using it as a joke on its own without the irony sort of feels like it misses the point for me.

Then there’s the half that I feel sort of guilty posting because I know it’s not the intent behind the jokes and it feels like I’m getting upset over something trivial and saying this feels accusatory, but I’m getting my hot take out of my system once and for all regardless. I feel like I see people say Vegeta is a pet either because he doesn’t have a job and he’s just living off Bulma’s money, or because he’s really weird sometimes. And I really don’t like the implications of either of those. Again, I am aware it’s a joke, I know that I’m not supposed to be taking it literally, but. Not working a job sure as hell doesn’t make someone less than human. Being financially supported by someone else does not make someone a pet, that’s spectacularly fucked up. And behaving strangely, even in an animalistic way, also does not make someone less than human or someone else’s pet. (and for the record I can’t actually think of much Vegeta has done that’s animalistic in canon, the closest to that has been eating the bug person, and he did that in a pretty human way. He cooked that bug person first and everything lol. Vegeta being cruel is not animalistic, it’s just a negative character trait. Most animals aren’t even aware enough to be cruel, so it’s a pretty human negative trait at that. I know it’s popular fanon to make him more animalistic but it is fanon. That’s probably a really hot take too but whatever.) Actually this goes for jokes about Goku too, who is the one who actually has some “animalistic” traits in canon. I hate the implication that the way either of them acts would make them the “pet” of a more “normal” human character. It feels really gross. Especially because they read far more as neurodivergent and/or having trauma then they do as true aliens. Part of that is an inherent side product of writing aliens as a human, because you can only really use things that humans are familiar with. But there’s also a whole history of which human traits get used to make an alien seem “inhuman.” I’m only personally familiar with the autism part of that history, but I know there’s lot more than that. Regardless, it certainly has an effect if you have those “inhuman” traits that people say are what makes an alien or robot or whatever into something less than human. So uh, “Vegeta is Bulma’s pet because he’s blunt, aggressive, often confused by other people’s intentions, and doesn’t always understand Earth” does not feel great as a joke. I know it’s not that serious and I know that’s not the underlying intention and I know that caring about this character in particular really does not help my case. But I guess I just can’t quite escape my feelings about it anyway.

#I’ve been brooding on this for at least a year I’m sorry about this one #No hate to anyone who does find the jokes funny #I can see why and some of them *are* funny #And it took me ages to even articulate why it gives me pause #But I guess I think it’s at least worth pointing it out in case anyone else feels the same #I’m sure Goku fans could give their own version of this rant because I see a similar trend there

still not over how modern db is trying so hard to gaslight people into thinking goku’s a meatheaded idiot who’s never considered mental training an important aspect of martial arts

#snap chats #i might not fucks with db as heavily anymore but ill die a goku defender #he's my best friend even if this franchise hates him #LITERALLY DAY ONE WITH THE TURTLE SCHOOL MASTER ROSHI TAUGHT HIM EDUCATION WAS IMPORTANT #AND EVEN BEYOND THAT WHAT WAS ALL THAT TIME WITH KAMI AND POPO FOR THEN #does goku not also remind gohan that he cant overwork his body when theyre in the hyperbolic time chamber or am i gaslighting myself #idk point is goku's not a braindead idiot i cant believe thats a hot take #he can be a bit dense and socially unaware but he's not stupid when it comes to fighting i hate it here #never thought id see character assassination happening live but wow... #anyways i was reminded of this cause people were talking about the superhero movie again #and i think its amazing how the movie wasnt even about goku and featured him for maybe about fifteen minutes #and they still managed to sneak in goku slander thats amazin honestly
