#I love every second ep but I gotta admit the show really goes from super great to BEYOND AMAZING in ep 6 imo
a definitive ranking of every not me episodes
since I have done a full rewatch of not me, I decided to do what I’ve always wanted to do, rank every episode from best to “worst” (let’s be honest, there’s no bad episode lol.) this was incredibly hard to decide, but let’s go!
1. EPISODE 13
it’s really hard to choose a number one bc as you will realize I literally ADORE every single not me episode & don’t consider any of them less than perfect, but... if I had to choose, ep 13 is my number one. this comes from many reasons: first of all if you ask me which not me episode I randomly remember during my day and die over, it’s definitely this one, simply bc it’s just TOO much and TOO iconic. secondly, it’s the climax the whole show has led to, so of course it’s an extra important episode. thirdly, the emotional impact of this episode is one for the history books. not only is this entire ep hella stressful as we watch the plan become more & more unpredictable, but dan’s betrayal of the gang, man. top 5 favorite scenes of ALL TIME. I cry like a little bitch every time, like... the acting is on point from everyone & I’ve never felt a betrayal more in my soul. it’s just executed perfectly, and ep 13 for me will forever be the not me episode in front of which I’ve felt the most emotions.
2. EPISODE 9
this ep is kind of the last calm before the storm with seanwhite having the softest most soulmate-y moment ever recorded in existence & danyok finally getting together, but honestly it’s not that calm bc black comes back & we learn the truth about todd, which makes this ep one of the most important AND enjoyable of the show thanks to all the cuteness <3
3. EPISODE 8
I mean... no one can watch this ep & tell me it’s not pure perfection. we get sean opening up to white before eventually confessing his feelings & them having their first kiss, we have dan being vulnerable with yok in one of the most moving scenes from the whole series, we have sean confronting tawi... an effortless slay across the board, this episode ENDED me when it aired & it ends me every time I rewatch it, 1000/10.
4. EPISODE 6
I’ve loved this episode since it first aired, even prompting me to do a full blown essay about its significance for seanwhite’s relationship at the time. so I will try to not repeat what I already said there, but this episode is not only one of the most suspenseful like all mission episodes, but it’s executed so well and shows so much growth & change for sean & white. it functions as an arc within the whole story, of sean finally trusting white & white betraying that trust (for ultimately the greater good.) it also has some of the most impactful moments of the first half of the show imo, with the fight at the end which is conducted incredibly, and sean admitting he’s scared too during the mission. overall that episode is a masterpiece & I love it WAY too much!
5. EPISODE 14
while this is definitely a kinda rushed ending, it’s still one hell of a good episode. the emotions are here, the good ending for everyone is here while still being open-ended so you can imagine perfectly how the characters’ lives are gonna be, and there’s some of the best cinematography of the whole show as well with the scene with the gang at the back of the van & tawi looking at the protesters from the top of his tower. really great ending!
6. EPISODE 2
this episode is divided into 2 parts, the first one being the burning of tawi’s house which is not only visually stunning & incredibly impactful, but also very significant to the plot with the introduction of dan & also seeing sean be vulnerable for the first time. the second part, back to normal, is still great but less incredible than other episodes that are more well-rounded imo, which is why I’m only ranking it here.
7. EPISODE 10
this ep has two of the most iconic scenes from the series (though there’s like 20 iconic scenes, let’s be honest), the black beating sean up scene & white coming to sean’s rescue as he’s given up on life scene. but the whole episode slays so hard, and shows us white’s relationship with his mother as well as namo being a great friend with sean. it’s just stressful enough before the real pressure starts & has incredible entertaining value. truly a great episode!
8. EPISODE 12
on paper it’s a calmer, less crazy episode, but honestly so much shit happens; we have dan revealing the truth to sean, seanwhite officially coming together, white telling the truth to the gang, and some heart to heart between the twins. it’s such a good episode for that, and one of the chillest ones which is good bc the other ones are fucking tornados lol
9. EPISODE 7
this ep is just SO fucking great, not only with the flag scene which is definitely the best lgbtq+ scene ever imo, but also with the beginning of danyok being in love, like... ICONIC!!! but imo, if you exclude the flag scene, it doesn’t have that many super impactful scenes. like I still love that episode but compared to others, it is definitely less crazy good. the flag scene does raise the grade of that episode significantly though bc it’s just perfect <3
10. EPISODE 11
such a great episode but compared to the others, not that much happens, which is why it’s ranked here. the toddblack & seanblack fight scenes are iconic though!!!
11. EPISODE 1
for a first episode, it’s truly great, as it lays down just enough information to get you hooked but keeps most of the mystery this series thrives on intact. also white getting dropped in a mission he knows nothing about & the reveal that it’s against tawi is truly incredible! but the reason I’m ranking it low is that it does have some slow moments, notably in the classroom scene, but also bc it’s confined by its role as a first episode: nothing much can happen compared to the later episodes no matter what.
12. EPISODE 5
sort of a filler episode but it kickstarts so much shit, including ep 6 which is a fucking masterpiece. the only annoying thing in it is all the gramblack bait that will lead to nothing, but otherwise the scenes are all super enjoyable & the real start of seanwhite & danyok’s relationships.
13. EPISODE 4
also kind of a filler episode, but a bunch of super interesting things still happen so it’s still hella enjoyable. I would say I wish the classroom scene was a bit shorter, but apart from that this episode lays the ground well for ep 5 & 6.
14. EPISODE 3
this one is also more of a filler episode, even though every scene is still super captivating. it’s the beginning of white slowky changing the way he thinks about politics, and him cutting contact with his dad & moving to the garage. the reason it’s ranked last is bc, compared to other eps, it doesn’t have the most important scenes.

hunter x hunter thotz so far
soooo ruth and i started watching hunter x hunter woohoo finally! we’re like 10 or so eps in so i decided to collect some thots below on what i think so far (i havent rlly been spoiled so im interested to look back on this once ive watched more)
first off i love gon sm, hes immediately so endearing...hes just a baby!!!! just a little baby boy!!!! hes just so cute and good, im so not ready for him to get put thru the wringer later on as ive vaguely heard happens
the first few episodes were really fast paced which i enjoyed and thought was for the best. the characters came thru really strongly and i feel like we heard juuuust enough about the setting, premise, and what a hunter is
i wasnt expecting leorio and kurapika to show up in the FIRST EP lmao that surprised me. i love so much how the three of them like IMMEDIATELY became a family unit in like 3 eps lmaoooo it was like ok here are 2 parents and their son bam. also leorio and kurapika having a showdown on the boat (which didnt end up happening) was a wild ride
i have like zero fucking idea what a hunter is and the more they attempt to explain the more confused i get. its honestly kind of hilarious how little sense it makes. to be clear this doesnt detract from my enjoyment of the show at all (if anything it adds to it)
oh my god fuckgin hisoka is the worst he hasnt done much but i hate him so much already. good villain writing/design so far, hes so hateable
ruth every time hisoka shows up: WE HATE UR PUSSY BIIIITCH
the character design in this show is....a lot lmao. ruth and i decided its a cross between soul eater, jojo, and one piece in terms of aesthetic. the designs are certainly unique and so many of them are just so ugly hvbjafdbdskgs it reminds me of that post thats like ‘masterpost of jojo characters who look busted as shit’ lmao
i already love this show a lot tbh like the way its structured so far has been kinda atypical for a shounen, at least in terms of fights - we really havent seen a lot of fighting yet. also nen hasnt shown up yet and its reminding me of stands not becoming a thing in jojo until p3 lmao
anyways in litrally ep1 i already loved the 3 main characters we saw...leorio is a wild dude, i love him sm, especially as a fellow medical binch who wants MONEY. like, thats literally me. and kurapika is also wild, like damn they rlly just dropped their backstory in ep 1 huh. like we rlly are jumping right into this
also when leorio said he was a teenager i was like WHAT???? just like evryone else which YEA omfg. i cant believe hes that young lmao. kurapika too
so leorio is one of those 19 yr olds who looks 40 and kurapika is the type of teen who looks like a 12 yr old
and KILLUA i love him sm also....hes an adorable assassin catboy and hes perfect. i love how quickly he and gon hit it off (tiny bfs.....) and how hes just like, this extra as hell 12 yr old with a SKATEBOARD and ASSASSIN SKILLS and then he sees gon and is like guess im gonna fall in love
i gotta talk abt gon again i just love him. hes so polite and cute and kind and good, i just love him...wht a good protag. his motivation is just wild too, hes like well my dad abandoned me to go off and be a hunter (which he isnt even mad abt, what a nice lad) so im gonna do that to see what the deal is
i love how gon (just like the audience) doesnt really know what a hunter does/is and just goes into the exam totally blind lmao. also the fact that his skills seem to include jumping good, being speedy, having the energy typical of a 12 yr old, being a weather sniffer, being nice, and having good instincts/constitution as a result of having eaten random grass and forest shit growing up...amazing.
is this gonna turn out to be one of those things where its like, wow theyve been using nen this whole time without realizing! tht would honestly explain a lot lmao
i really enjoy how like....semi-normal the power levels are rn? while also being all over the place and wack as fucks obvs (like hisoka dissolving that guys arms in his first appearance was A Lot, as well as all the card stuff hes done..). like the part wher that blue guys (evil franky one piece) punches the ground and it leaves a crater and everyones like !!!! wow wtf thats unnatural! that literally threw me off bc that kinda thing is so normal in anime lmaoooo. but i like that thats the starting point bc it leaves a lot of room for power escalation w/out it getting too out of hand
specifially our protags are starting out pretty low on the Shounen Badass scale - especially gon (and leorio, tho i kinda predict he wont be as fight-y? what with him being premed)
i find it kinda hilarious how killua hasnt done too much (aside from murdering those 2 randos in like half a second) despite being so clearly skilled...like when they have to do the 5v5 fight thing in the tower, i wouldve thought hed be the first up cause hes so badass but nope
actually thats what i find interesting - i was expecting all 5 (or maybe 4, we’re in the middle of leorio’s ‘fight’) of the fights to be physical smackdowns but so far nope, theyve been very cerebral. that bodes well, w/how smart the fights have been, bc i doubt the fights will get stale tht way
tho they might be kinda frustrating sometimes - there are times when u DO just wanna see a good ole fashioned shounen beatdown yknow. but we do get enough of that now (and im sure we’ll get plenty more) to satisfy (like kurapika decking fake-franky)
oh also the opening. its so charming and cute and i love the song...its also so hilariously basic and classic - like one of those typical 2000s anime openings where theres stock run cycles of all the main characters and theres a little animation of all the characters fighting together (and that fight doesnt actually happen, its just for the op)
also love that leorios the only one who doesnt fight in the OP, instead getting saved from death by gon lmao. im curious if he’ll end up fighting at all (i assume a little?) and if he’ll use nen (probably healing type nen?)
also i already wanna fistfight ging for abandoning his perfect angel son. also leorio is literally gons dad already, they even look alike wow
that guy hanzo has done basically 0 things so far but i rlly like him already, im curious if thatll change. also sorry for calling u ‘hanzo overwatch!?!?!?!’ upon first viewing my guy
tonpa is str8 up so annoying pls leave u pathetic loser
tho it cracked me up when he and Evil Mr Clean were facing off and starting getting all detailed/shaded and i was like o shit is he actually badass. are we abt to see like a nen battle or st. but no....lmaooo
i found it interesting that leorio didnt really admit to wanting to be a dr at first...hes such a good dude, he kinda just let kurapika think that his motives were superficial and greedy when in actuality theyre selfless
also wanting to be rich can be a rlly interesting character motivation and i love when its done right
oh my god i cant believe it took me this long to mention the hilariously edge ED....like holy shit, its so 2000s, the song sounds like its been re-recorded like 40000 times bc of how bad the audio quality is, or something, idk how to describe music but its hilariously specific in tone and its rlly funny to see shots of the main characters smiling while this screamo whatever plays in the bg....wow.
also s/o to killua for being king of edgy with that ‘tear of blood’ shot
i rlly like how much of the plot, especially the early hunter exam stuff, is moved along simply by gon being a good kind polite boy.
love the fact that he and leorio and kurapika (and later killua) all team up without even saying anything...i love that, most shounen would have them be like ‘che, i cant team up with anyone, i have to prove myself ALONE or my victory wont be EARNED’ or w/e idk. who knows that might happen later but rn i love how they all effortlessly work together (and how they all contribute - without each other they would have all failed at different points)
oh man also killuas first appearence was so funny when he drank a bunch of tonpas poisoned drinks and was like [smirks] tch, loser, im immune to poison. get dunked on. [skateboard away] i love him so fuckgin much
omfg that part where killua looks all shoujo/kawaii and is talking abt how hes gonna kill his family or w/e and gon is just like ^_^? i love they
HOOOOLY FUCK I ALMOST FORGOT, BUT 65% OF THE REASON I MADE THIS POST WAS TO MENTION HISOKAS THEME LMAOOOOO his music being like fuckgin, spanish guitar/traditional mexican type music is sooooo goddamn funny to me for some reason, like the first time it played i was like ok whats going ON with this spanish guitar lmao but then i figured out that its his theme and god thats so funny
hisoka is also so fuckign jojo like he could so easily be in jojo. he and dio would be the fakest best friends ever and would constantly try to kill each other on the lowdown and shittalk each other constantly in private but be super sweet to each others faces. also they would hatefuck. no im not taking criticism bye
i rlly love everyones backstories also, and i find it interesting that weve gotten to hear/see at least some of all 4 of the MCs backstories. theyre all compelling and interesting and i cant wait to dive in further
also calling it now but kurapika is totally gonna get way too absorbed in revenge and get fucked up/disregard their own life (maybe in the style of robin in one piece?) we’ll see but i feel like it aint gonna end well. i could be wrong, i really havent been spoiled at all, thats just my guess
hbahjfbshjf the ep that was called ‘hisoka x is x sneaky’ was SO funny that reads like a dora the explorer ep title
also i had no idea the ep titles were formatted like that w/the x’s and thats rlly funny
ok but the part where leorio - who seems to be pretty bad at fighting - tries to fight hisoka - whose literal first appearence involved him effortlessly dissolving a dudes arms - is so fucking funny. leorio rlly b a premed w/no brain cells....same bro.
also i loved the Cutthroat Kitchen portion of the hunter exam and how not a single contestant was any good at it lmaoooo. do they not have the cooking channel in hxh-verse earth
ok i love how the main characters are all intuitive in different ways depending on their own skills, like how killua can immediately guess that kurapika has never killed anyone before after they didnt kill evil-franky
kurapika joined killua in the Edgy Corner during that part also. like, they both have legit reasons to be edgy, but the shots of kurapika sitting in the darker tunnel part was kinda funny
also killua, a literal 12 yr old, calling out kurapika for being a murder virgin was pretty hilarious
ok also i didnt know that madhouse animated hxh which is rlly funny but w/e i love the animation especially the occasional chibi parts and the facial expressions (like killuas ‘i love murder’ catboy expressions)
oh also when killua murdered those 2 guys and his hand was all vein-y and his nails were pointy, his hands looked like hisokas do...i wonder if thats a legit connection or it hisoka just b getting his nails did
kurapika talking abt how even seeing a regular spider makes them rlly angry was both very sad and kinda funny. kura u have so many issues god bless
kurapikas smackdown on evil blue franky was fuckin dope tho. and the red eyes reveal was SPOICY
rlly love how the individual fights highlights the characters strengths/morals/motivations/whatever....the writing is already really strong tbh
ugh ok ive ranted enough this is a Lot lmao its so disorganized but w/e
basically i love this series so far and im rlly curious whatll happen next. also everything seems pretty chill and upbeat so far (relatively) and i know this shit gets dark and im NOT FUCKING READY.
til next timeeee

Ep. #1 - “hail santa that is all.” (Chrissa)
Nothing much really so far. We got into tribes so far everyone seems cool ans all so can't wait to see what happens from here.
Opening thoughts: I'm very much downplaying my knowledge, making it seem like I care most about challenges, know nothing about how online Survivor works (I played and hosted one) and not a massive amount about the actual show either, asking a lot of questions. Trying to find people with the most similar personalities and let others propose any alliances.
boy am i overwhelmed
Day 1;
So I'm sitting here, eating dinner, a salad with garlic bread and a mike's hard pineapple strawberry lemonade, and I decide to do a confessional! Lets talk about my tribe, first and foremost. We're the "Second Chances" tribe. Fitting, we're all FLOPS.
Imma do this in the order we were REVEALED to the world. Because that's cute, right? We're basically the beauty tribe bc everyone is lowkey real scrumptious lookin.
Eric;
Before this game, Eric and I bonded in the Ahkmim VL about how we never get cast for tumblr survivor, and how we're waiting for redemption, and I'd feel bad leaving him as the first boot. So hopefully he'd also feel bad, and wanna talk to me. I don't think the two of us have much in common yet, he's into anime, and reading, which is like, two things I'm not really down for, but I'm definitely gonna give Spirited Away a try sometime soon so I can talk to him about it. I kinda wanna ask if the red in his hair is naturally like.. blood red. But maybe that's the lighting in the room, or maybe he died it even MORE ginger, because I often hear to him referred to as GINGER Eric, but also i don't wanna have an awkward "No, this is just like.. normal ginger" conversation.
Megan;
Ohhhh Megan.. my girl Megan. We've had a rocky road in our friendship, and I wish I was just talking about ice cream. Something about her though just makes me have infinite patience for the things the two of us deal with, I can't help but just want to be with her all the time. I scouted her out from FaceBook to play my Whodunnit, and we've been extremely close ever since, our game relationship has been rocky enough for me to worry slightly about her, but all I can do is trust her, and build good enough relationships with other people that if she tried to fuck me over, I would know, and strike first. Its still unclear to this day whether she had a hand in my elimination in a Big Brother game we played, 1984. What is crystal clear, is that we cried together while she cast her vote to evict me. I love her, won't never stop lovin her. I'm hoping this can be OUR season to dominate, because I feel like we're almost evenly matched when it comes to a jury vote.
Will;
"Whoop-de-do" iconic king of not getting his haircut. Uhh.. idk what all to say, because before the game, I knew nothing of this man. However, Monty said something about him being alive and on Skype, and my mind immediately goes to "Is he hot?" and I check his profile, and publicly announce that he's hot. Which isn't FALSE, but then we both get revealed for the game, and put on the same tribe. So now we're vibing, and relating on the fact that tumblr players hate us, and we've deemed each other, "Heather". He's currently petitioning to call our tribe "The Heathers" instead of Enlil. We get on really well, and he's pretty damn cute. Also, he goes to bed SO early, I hope we get enough time to talk and get close on this tribe.
Julian;
Well. This is a lot to unpack, but I found out he was playing about 3 days before the game, and since that point. He's gotten unnecessarily aggressive with me, and a couple others over non-tumblr related matters. Julian and I have a rocky history, between me being recruited, and auto-casted for his ORG, Trinity Survivor, his ex-co-host/current-best friend berating me, and deleting messages to make me look bad. To Julian throwing passive aggressive low-blows about my social ineptitude in my face if I'm angry about something, to us making final 3 together in minis. Overall, I'm constantly at odds about how I perceive our relationship, I want to be able to assume the best of him, and say that I'm good in his book, no matter what happens. I think a lot of the time, our friend group isn't the most mature, and it is really difficult to have an adult conversation with someone from within that friend group, without someone else having an opinion to share on it, so I've heard things that he's said about me, that I'm not necessarily sure if its true or not, but I try my best to hold a strong, level head and smile whenever I see him, but sometimes its difficult wanting to approach a conversation with someone head on, but knowing that you can't do that with him is definitely a struggle of mine. We have very different communication styles, and its difficult to see past it sometimes. For now, I'm going to be working with him, but I'm not sure how long that can last, as he admits it himself, he can only handle my personality for short periods of time.
Jack;
Well, Jack hasn't said a single word for the last three hours, since the game has begun. I don't WANT to have to stay up till 5-6 in the morning to try to have a conversation with him, but if that's what I gotta do, then that's what I gotta do.
Chrissa;
Chrissa, Todd. My LOVE. Chrissa is someone that I owe something to, she's amazing, beautiful, talented, show stopping, never before seen, etc. Our game relationship is not great, because I organized her first boot in Ascendance Season 4; Back to the Future. However, it was because she was attached to someone that kept accusing me of having powers behind my back. So, hopefully Chrissa forgives me, and gives me another chance, because I'd love to work with her. I feel like Chrissa is someone who is extremely intelligent, and loyal, and that's someone I want on my side.
I love my tribe, lets win every challenge until the merge!!
Well... I’m back again... not going inactive this time! Let’s just do a quick roundup for now: JJ seems to think we’re in a showmance already which is either great or bad for my game, Megan’s a sweetheart and I could see us aligning, Eric is definitely a gamer and I have a feeling he’ll be a loyal, jack and Julian are both pretty straightforward and seem on the quieter side, and Chrissa straight up vanished already so we’ll see how that goes! Basically somebody thinks I’m their husband but I don’t know if I ever signed the prenup, but if it means JJ is gonna spill on how he feels about everyone then that’s some good insight. Nobody really wants to talk game yet but that’ll change soon!! Kk bye for now
Night 1/Morning 2:
Everyone on my tribe seems extremely cool and I'm loving the way the tribes are divided. The only name I recognized on the cast was Monty's and he's on my tribe! I don't know him personally but I think he first played around when I was hosting a season.
I have hit it off with Johnny the best so far I think, and definitely Isabelle as well. I seem to have a lot in common with both of them on a personal level. Strategically, I haven't locked anything down yet. I don't want to come right out and blurt "ALLIANCE?" with anyone; for right now I'm just trying to play it cool, get to know people as well as I can, and be a likeable presence in the tribe so people just wanna have me around.
I just asked Collin to talk to Adam about forming a four person alliance, which Collin will "bring" me into while Adam suggests someone. This might secure me in a four person alliance which would be ideal, but if it backfires, it will backfire on Collin, not on me. I'm trying to get myself into a majority while insulating myself from being seen as the strategic threat
First confessional before first IC
I was thrust on a good tribe we have JJ and Eric and hopefully this group of people won't make us last in competitions atleast lol maybe if we lose though hopefully i can argue why jack needs to go with his timezone but hopefully i don't have too.
im ngl idk why i decided to play tumblr survivor again and the instant paranoia of just caring about my PLACEMENT is going to keep me up at night *shivers*
It's been a day in and so far I really like our tribe! I'm vibing with a few of them and it looks like there's been alliance formed between myself, Julian and JJ. JJ has said that he owes it to Chrissa not to vote her out if we lose, and I think he has something with Megan on the side based off what Julian has told me. That leaves Will and Jack, and I've talked with Will a ton. Tomorrow I'm gonna try and see if he wants to work with me too because I feel like to win this season, you will need to keep all your options open.
Day 2:
I got to talk to Jack last night, he was talkin about how he did some funky fresh survivor statistics on how tribe swaps affect tribe line loyalties, which I found super interesting. Then I decided to share a statistics thingy I did on how the Final 3 format doesn't produce an even ratio of male / female winners, but the Final 2 format does, and how potentially something about the final 3 format in survivor could be a factor in why we haven't had enough female winners in the last few generations of survivor. But he didn't even believe there was a female bias in survivor.. which kinda threw me off. Oh well, we ended the conversation on a good note before I went to bed.
Well, the tribe seems to be getting along well, I tried to get a tribe call going, but it ended up just being me and Megan helping Chrissa with strategies to get higher scores in the challenge. She can't seem to break 100, and I feel really bad for her, I hope the rest of us can carry this competition, because I would feel like the worst human being in the world if I gave someone first boot twice in a row. Not to mention I'd consider Chrissa a friend of mine. Maybe I'm playing this game a bit too emotionally, before we even have our first tribal. What a concept..
Will and I are only getting closer and closer, we continuously refer to each other, affectionately, as "Heather". But he really lied to me today, pretty hard core. He said he was gonna order his weight in mexican food when he got off work... but he ate Thai instead...? How dare he ??? Rude. Anyways, if he's lying about that, what else could he lie to me about? Smh. Fuckboys amirite?
I think that if we lose this challenge, Jack would be an easy vote off. He's in a different timezone, and his age unfortunately would make it really difficult to have a decent social game.
If we lose more than once, there's one of two things that could happen..
1.) There's a standoff between Julian, Megan and I, trying to maneuver this tribe to remove each other. Which is exactly why a friendship / showmance / whatever with Will is so important. Will would likely be the swing vote they try to get, I don't see Chrissa voting me out if I prove my loyalty at the first tribal our tribe faces.
2.) The three of us dominate the premerge portion of the game, and it becomes an impossible to maneuver situation for me at the merge, because all the connections I have outside of my own tribe, both Julian or Megan also have a hand in, with the exception of Jay, who I don't find myself falling that closely to.
I feel like I might be thinking too much, too fast. I guess I just can't show the rest of my tribe that. I'm hoping my reads on the tribe are at least somewhat correct this time around. :/
Collin never ended up messaging Adam, and I was worried about falling behind the 8-ball, so I took alliance building measures into my own hands. I messaged Zach about joining up by stating that Collin had told me he also had a good conversation with Zach, and I made sure Zach didn't just feel "brought in" by asking him which person he would want to be 4 in our alliance. He suggested Cameron, which is fine by me. He hasn't officially reached out to Cameron yet, but our plan is to bring Cameron in if we end up losing, and I will probably want to vote Kyle or Grace in that scenario. Hope we don't lose though!
I don't really (or at least usually) stress about challenges and definitely not this early in the game, but some of these people are so stressed and panicky. Will (who I talked to about aligning earlier today like I had said I would in my last confessional) is stressed about not being able to beat his current high score of 199 and feels like he's on the lower end and might be eliminated. I was telling him though that this isn't necessarily about your score, but your ranking. You can get 209 or 189 and still get the same ranking. Chrissa on the other hand is totally panicking. She has an admittedly low score of 89 which she forgot to screenshot which is really rough. She same flash games aren't her thing (and I believe her) but when I tried to calm her down and say there's lots of time to improve and that we can win this, she continued to panic. There's not much I can do for her. I'm not aligned with her right now and she's just really scared to get first boot, which I don't even think will happen. JJ feels obliged not to make her first boot should the scenario present itself, and I'm aligned with him and Julian. If anyone's going home right now, it's probably Jack unless he has connections I am unaware of. I would really like to win though because I love our beauty tribe xoxo
I managed to find the idol clue, and in telling my formed trio of Collin and Zach, Zach accidentally revealed that he had found it too. I don't think he intended to tell me, so now I am not sure if I fully trust him. I'll work with him for now, but he is going to be a big move player and I'll have to watch out for that
Forgive me father for i have sinned it's been a day since my last confession I've made some progress me and grace knowing each other well pregame means i have an instant ally coming in to help not be first.....or second out and me and Collin seem to be kinda working together I guess?? I hope not fully sure but I feel confident I'm not going if we go to tribal.
hiiii so glad to be back in the game!!!! So thankful I have the opportunity to redeem myself after my huge flop in 94, but lowkey worried about being on the An tribe? Only because it is filled with people who have done well in the past I’m not sure how to measure where I fall within them, but everyone has been very nice and seems to get along with me so far! Also it seems like there is no suspicion from them about Zach and I being siblings which is STELLAR. From looking at the cast I think the only person who knows for sure is JJ, and perhaps Megan? But thankfully they aren’t on a tribe with either of us so that might work in our favor. I’m a little nervous about this first challenge but I have one of the highest scores on my tribe atm, so I feel like if we go to tribal it might be okay. Fingers crossed hehe ;))
FUCK entanglement! FUCK IT IT IS THE WORK OF THE DEVIL hail santa that is all.

Zach is playing super hard out in the open. That is good for me, he can make connections to help our alliance, and if there is ever a moment where our alliance gets exposed, he will probably be out in the forefront as a target. The flip side of that is that I might not be able to go to the end with him if he could be perceived as the leader of my alliance, so I'll need to see how the game develops
We came in second in the immunity challenge by ONE POINT. Thank the lord because our group seems very cohesive at the moment, and going to tribal would have put everyone into scramble mode. I've been bonding the closest over the first 4 days with Isabelle, and I am hoping it can lead to a strong game relationship. Right now, we seem to be very social with one another and we have gone as far as to say we wouldn't vote for one another, but I'm still sort of waiting for that defining confirmation (as much as you can get that in Survivor). After that, I'd say I've been pretty chatty with Johnny and Monty equally (but I think I have a slightly tighter personal bond so far with Johnny). Abrielle I talked to more so over the first couple of days but I would say between her, Jay and Madison those are the ones I've made the least connection with. They all seem like good people, just haven't had as much traction chatting with them. I don't want us to go to tribal for as long as we can help it, because for me the best case scenario heading into a swap would be if our tribe had the numbers advantage and some sort of tribe-wide unity going into it. I feel like that way I could be in a good spot but also not in the forefront of the tribe alliance (I'd hope that would sort of fall on Monty or Johnny maybe because of their Tumblr Survivor experience). For now though, just continuing to get to know everyone as best I can and try and make sure people want me around, and have me in their plans moving forward.

ok my mom walked in so i didn't get to finish my thought, but i guess the full thought is just: what the fuck? like i'm really gonna be watching this vid on repeat while y'all are just trolling us. this will end up in my nightmares. know that.
also my paranoia is once again setting in. as i mentioned in previous confessional, i feel like ben and i have bonded the most, and we've both pointed it out to each other, but now i feel like he's pointing it out... almost too much? he's basically comparing our convos to his with the rest of the tribe and that they're much better (which i lowkey agree), but something feels fishy because again IM PARANOID. AM I BEING PLAYED?? like literally the scenario in my mind is that everyone's aligned except me and ben has been chosen as the bug to make me feel comfortable. okay yes im crazy. and it's only day 2 whew! im going to bed goodnight.
---
ok now ive found a video about spectograms the channel has liked. this hunt is getting me anxious bc slowly but surely the amount of views on the immunity idol vid is increasing. AHHHH
---
ok i found the spectogram and it literally spells out "SINK." (also this shit is scary so again, my nightmare comment holds.) so there are 5 other followers, which makes me know for sure that at least 5 other ppl have found this vid. also i have no idea what to do with the word. i assume that it'll come in handy eventually (maybe a password? send in a chat? comment on the vid? something?) and i really really hope im the only person to find this. i know that's unlikely tho.
---
oh my god. oh my fucking god. the clue is at survivor-mesopotamia.tumblr.com/sink . im screaming. proud of myself. BUT of course it says...
"clue
Though you have found it,
No clue has emerged.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION,
Come back when you’ve merged."
i- i have to wait until i've merged. HA. we'll see if bitches get that far. and im bitches. anyways sorry for the spam, now back to your regularly scheduled programming
Day 3:
I almost forgot to do this confessional. But here I am, in bed, watching Avatar, and drinking butterscotch milk with Irish cream, which is surprisingly good? Anyways, here we go!
First, you’re telling me that we LOST the challenge.. what the hell :( I thought I did so well having 188, but apparently even 256 wasn’t going to cut it. The fact that if Jack could improve his score by 30 points, means we’d be safe from tribal, it annoys me that it felt like he didn’t try as hard as Chrissa in the flash game?
Julian, he says we can beast through this game and make final three. This is something I’d really love to be able to trust that he has in mind, but I just am unsure at this moment. He gave me information towards the idol search that I appreciate, and probably wouldn’t have figured it out myself. That felt good, but I feel like he wasn’t giving me everything he knew, just enough to make me feel comfortable. I’ll have to continue to keep my eye on him..
Next, Heather, or Will, my potential showmance. We’ve finally got the opportunity to call each other, we talked about the idol search, and our potential moves in the future. He told me he likes the idea of not playing with Julian, but right after he told me this, Julian asked if we were good? Which was kinda sketch. But I’ll do my best to trust Will, and call it a weird coincidence.
Megan hasn’t talked to me much today, but she was a room moderator for sequester, and was visiting a friend today, so I can’t blame her.
Chrissa is hopefully safe, I can’t give her first boot in back to back games together, I refuse to be that heartless. She’s so good I can’t do it.
Eric hasn’t talked to me much either.
For someone who should probably know that his name is on the block, I’m surprised Jack isn’t talking too much to me? Maybe it’s because I’m on the chopping block and I don’t know it. I’d be really heartbroken if I were the first boot.
So we lost the challenge by ONE FREAKING POINT, which sucks ass. But not me doing the best in my tribe on the challenge. We stan improvement. Anyway, it looks like the discussion for the vote is between Jack and Chrissa, namely Jack. Though Chrissa performed worse in the challenge, she's done a better job connecting with the rest of us than Jack has. As of now, that's what the general concensus is. I talked to Julian and he agreed, and we are aligned with JJ. Chrissa would vote our way to make sure it isn't her.
Another thing that's happening is the idol search. The video made literally no freaking sense, but when the channel liked this video about spectograms, Julian put the video into it and it spelled sink. It turned out that by putting the word sink into the blog link, it says a clue will be there but at the merge. I guess this means for now there will be no idols, so as long as the people im with are truthful, the person who is planned to go home at tribal will go home without a shadow of a doubt.
https://youtu.be/ury1fLaZQec
Right now everyone on the tribe is at peace and getting along, but we all know that’s gonna change when we go to tribal council.
I'm sad we lost the first challenge. I came back to do better than i did the first time, so the idea of being the first boot would suck.
I'm not that close with Chrissa so 100% she's my vote. She has played more seasons than all of us & the second chancers deserve their time.
Also, Chrissa did the worst out of us in the challenge so it makes it easier to convince everyone to vote for her, but i also dont want to be the one who targets her first because that could come back round to me, and i would hate that as i've waited over a year for a 2nd shot at this.
At the moment i'm closest with JJ & Will F, they are 100% my final 3 right now. I like Megan & Eric as well. I've only had 1 comversation with Julian and we did get on well but we havent talked about anything since then. I've tried to talk to Chrissa but she's never really tried to talk to me.
Hi!! Megan for my first confessional!! Yall are gonna have to remind me throughout my time in this game to do these because I'm SO bad at remembering to do confessionals lmaooo. So this first round there's been a lot going on. There are three tribes- newbies, flops, and a tribe of vets who have played well. Clearly I am on the flop tribe, because I was a SAD pre-merge boot in Svalbard. I was feeling really excited about my tribe and definitely thought we could do well and at least not lose the first challenge - we don't want to be flops again!! But alas, after a long day of doing that stupid entanglement flash game, we have proven our labels and FLOPPED yet again, getting last. SO. now we have to go to tribal council tonight. I am out of town this weekend so I haven't been able to talk to many people but I hope I can make it through this first vote. All I've heard so far is that people want to keep the tribe strong so we don't lose another challenge, and based on the first challenge scores, the two bottom challenge players would be Chrissa and Jack. So far I have heard that people want to do Jack instead of Chrissa, which I am fine with. I haven't talked to him that much and I think the time zone difference unfortunately puts him at a disadvantage, so honestly, we should probably vote him out first. I am nervous of course though because people have been fairly quiet and that's never a good thing, but I am hoping and praying that nothing crazy happens and Jack is the first boot and all is good and fine with that. Okay now I'll talk a little about the players on the tribe and how I feel about them-
Okay so obviously I know JJ and Julian fairly well from previous games & also being in various group chats together. So far we are planning on working together as a trio and I am GOOD with that so far. Chrissa I have played with once before but she's not very social or talkative, and tbh, I haven't had a DM with her in this game yet, but she seems sweet. Eric I like a lot, he is funny and outgoing and a little chaotic and I love that in him. I think I know him from something previously but quite honestly I don't remember him, but he remembers me LOL. I hope they're good memories. Jack, again, I haven't talked to him much because of the time difference I think. Also isn't he like a minor? Oof that's weird. Anyway onto the final member of my tribe - the king, the legend, the literal love of my life - WILL!!!! I had never met Will before this game but we vibed IMMEDIATELY. We get along so well and we have a lot of things in common and we like the same kinda things. We've had a lot of really good conversations already and I feel the closest to him in this game by far, even though I have known other people on my tribe longer. I adore Will and I will do everything in my power to make sure we both get as far in this game as we can. Okay I think that's enough for a first confessional, bye!!!
Things have been pleasant and slow so far. Everyone on the tribe seems nice and at this point I’m still just hoping that we’ll all get as far in the game as possible at the expense of the more experienced players. I’m a little concerned because I haven’t really been party to any strategy talk yet; I think that’s just because no one has thought it necessary while we don’t have to go to tribal, but I’m still worried I might just be on the outs and not know it.
hiiii so glad to be back in the game!!!! So thankful I have the opportunity to redeem myself after my huge flop in 94, but lowkey worried about being on the An tribe? Only because it is filled with people who have done well in the past I’m not sure how to measure where I fall within them, but everyone has been very nice and seems to get along with me so far! Also it seems like there is no suspicion from them about Zach and I being siblings which is STELLAR. From looking at the cast I think the only person who knows for sure is JJ, and perhaps Megan? But thankfully they aren’t on a tribe with either of us so that might work in our favor. I’m a little nervous about this first challenge but I have one of the highest scores on my tribe atm, so I feel like if we go to tribal it might be okay. Fingers crossed hehe ;))
I’m SCARED I’ve been out of the loop for TOO LONG.
from what I've heard i am safe i won't be comfortable until i heard the votes not being all me.

RWBY Volume 6 Episodes 12/13 “Seeing Red” and “Our Way” Micksterecaps: TWO RECAPS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO doggie, youse KNOW I can’t wait to talk about the finale, so you get not one but TWO recaps! Also doing the same thing with Gen:Lock as they released the first two eps of that on the same day-EITHER WAY LET’S GET TO DANCIN’!
THE EP STARTS OFF WITH-
-the ARGUS MILITARY-watching their boss waste military hardware, while being away from their FREAKING STATIONS-where a threat the Colossus was MADE to fight is coming close to the city. ALL WHILE RUBY-
-HANGS-in there? EH?! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEH?!
After a nice little cliff climb, Oscar informs the team that the shields go down EVERY time Cordo fires missiles, which is the time to STRIKE! Ruby while on board-DOES-point out the difficulty of it though.
Ruby:-I’d have to be practically staring down the barrel of her canon.
FORESHADOWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!
Ruby than jumps onto their legitimately stolen airship, while Maria does what she does best-
Maria: HEY CORDO-your mother wears NON-combat boots!
Cordo: SHUT UP I HAVE ALL THE MISSILES!
SADLY-though-
-sheeeeeeeeeeee catches on.
*BANG*
*TING*
*CLOSE*
Cordo: SURELY you know Atlas perfected missile launcher door quick-closing technology!
Ruby: BITCH YOU GOT LUCKY AND YOU KNOW IT!
Cordo: FUCK YOU I HAVE A LIGHTNING CANON!
OOH-and she WINGS them even, DAMN that’s gotta smart!
OOH-spoke too soon, Maria got the worst of it! MAN-that’s gotta sting.
Looks like its up to farmboy to SAVE THE DA-
*CRASH*
...EH-he’s a 14 year old farmboy, did the best he could with no fly knowledge or help (WINK).
See that? A NICE clean crash, Launchpad McQuack would be proud!
Ruby realizing how fucked things are, decides to pull a make or break move-RIGHT BEFORE-this scene-
Qrow: Ruby, stop!
Ruby: I need you, to trust me.
And he then lets go of her hand. Its a small yet powerful scene, and I really loved it, just wanted to point that out.
Ruby then makes a passionate speech to Cordo about how they only stole from her because she gave them no choice, especially since their supposed to be on the same side, and hopes she listens to reason.
Cordo: Hm....
Cordo:...NAH-I’ll just kill you.
CAROLINE CORDOVIN FOLKS-the defi-NITION of excessive force!
But does THAT scare Rubelubes?!
FUCK NO-she dashes herself RIGHT in there! SEE-foreshadowing!
She sees the target-
-LINES up the shot-
-while Cordo reevaluates recent life choices-
-gives herself a nice SNIPER breath-
-SHOOTS THAT FUCKER-and with-in a SECOND-
-PETALS HERSELF AWAY! Ace huntress right here! ALL right before-
-THAT FUCKER GETS CRYSTALIZED-good on you Ruby!
OOH-still got that aftershock crackle though! Thankfully Weiss uses her reverse gravity glyphs to slow her down ‘cause she’s a GOOD girlfriend, either figuratively OR literally(Bumblebee is canon fo sho, but STILL not sure on Iceflower, BUT still hopeful).
Qrow then catches her, and Ruby smugly replies with-
Ruby: ...toldja.
Oh Ruby, you SASS!
End the scene with a bit of Maria sass-
Maria: OH-don’t tell me I MISSED it!
AND CUT TO OUR FAVORITE NEW POWER COUPLE!
7:25
BEHOLD the holding of the hands, FEEL the gay energy it creates, while pissing off Blake’s creepy predatory ex, who was probably a creepy senior like Daniel Tosh when they started dating and needs to die(WINK).
Blake then says she and Yang are gonna KICK HIS ASS, because she made a promise to stick with the people she cares about-PROMPTING ADAM-to say this-
Adam: Y’know, she made a promise to me once, that she’d always be at MY side. HA-and look how well she’s kept it.
Your ex likes girls dude, GET OVER IT!
Either way it prompts Yang to say THIS badassery:
Yang: Did she make that promise to you? Or to the person you were PRETENDING to be?
Fuck yes. Either way, time for talk is over-ITS ACTION SCENE TIME-
-OOH-start out with a splitscreen, NICE!
Blake and Yang keep hitting him from both sides-
-and uses her shot-gauntlets to get distance, as a STRATEGIST does!
Blake goes in on the offensive, but ADAM ATTACKS-
-HER SHADOW-because he keeps forgetting how her semblance works like the dirty bitch he is!
Blake somersaults over him-
-KICKS-him back in the best pic I could get, because it happens in like a MICROSECOND-
-to a Yang Xiao Long that’s RARING to go with her shaunt-gauntlets-
-AND YANG KNOCKS HIM BACK...trust me, she did, this fight has a LOT of quick action and getting the pics I want is a nightmare.
The battle is INTENSE y’all, either way Blake gets ENOUGH distance-
-to get her partially broken gunsword back-
-tttttttttttthrows it over to fuckface magee-
-OOH-but he blocks it, no goal for you Blake-BUT-
-YANG GETS CONTROL OF THE BLADE-they may just make this count-
-she flings her over withe classic “infinitely stretchy band of stretchiness” to INITIATE-
-BATTLE CLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH-but WAIT-
-OOH-knock back on both sides-
-Adam lands on his feet while Blake-
-OOH-she got crackle folks, we’re nearing the endgame (copyright Marvel studios...nah just kidding, RWBY’s a DC property). It ALSO almost knocks her off the cliff-
...I feel there’s a joke about a cat poster I can make here, but I’m not sure if right now is the right time to say it.
Yang is of course READY to save her-
-WHILE giving Adam an obvious deathglare for obvious reasons(MURDER HIM).
SADLY though Adam uses his greatest power of all-
Adam: MOMENT of truth Yang, do you think your faster than you were at Beacon?
*GASP*
EMOTIONAL manipulation( MURDER HIM, MURDER HIM). ALSO-sorry for the arrows, they wouldn’t go away and I couldn’t edit them out without ruining the gravitas of the shot.
Then a punch, A KICK, Yang’s on the ropes, will her aura hold out? CAN BLAKE HANG ON?!
OOH-apparently she can! MAN-the endurance these young women had, she lost a forcefield and now she’s climbing a MOUNTAIN, made of STEEL that one!
Adam than acts like the most OBVIOUS psycho-ex ever-
Adam: What does she even SEE in you?!
Yang: A person who doesn’t let their psychological baggage be an excuse to be an abuser!
Blake: Someone in my own age group who isn’t a creep who peaked his senior year of High school!
Adam: YOU SHUT UP I’M A PERFECT SUNFLOWER!
Adam then uses MOONSLASH on Yang but if you don’t know our girl-
Yang: Gotcha.
-you’d know it’d be NOT very effective y’all-SUPER SAYAIN YANG ACTIVATE!
FUCK YEAH-punch him OUT!
-AND HE GOT THE CRCKLE Y’ALL-its aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallmost over!
OOH-but so does Yang, BUT she’s got his sword so ADVANTAGE Bumbleby!
EITHER WAY-everyone’s running on fumes, its SUDDEN DEATH SMASH TIME Y’ALL!
And dear lord...its amazing-
-Yang THROWS that shit off a cliff-
-Adam goes after it-
Blake: SHURIYUKEN!
Yang: Wait I saw you climb UP the mountain, how’d you get back there-
Blake: WHATEVER-let’s kill this guy!
She sees the broken sword at her feet-
-she grabs ONE half-
-Yang graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabs the other-
Yang: RAH!
Blake: EYAH!
YANG/BLAKE USED DOUBLE STRIKE-
Adam:...oh-
*SPLASH*
-and its SUPER effective-CRITICAL HIT! RPG BUZZWORDS! AND THEN BUMBLEBY-
-gives themselves a tender cry scene while both promise to be there for each other. DAMN that was a fight scene, emotion, action, DEATH, I love this show!
Blake: *SNIFF* I just really really-REALLY-hope he stays dead!
Yang: Don’t worry, he can’t get maiden powers so he’s gone for good.
Blake: I love you babe.
Yang: I love you to.
A THEN CUT TO-
-CORDO-dealing with the consequences of her actions in MORE ways than one!
Nubuck: HEY UH M’AM-
-Godzillallegory is on the horizon-
- and it brought a BUNCH of friends, we could REALLY use the giant Collossus mech made SPECIFICALLY for fighting giant Grimm!
Cordo:...I am SO fired.
AND THAT’S ep 12, SEE YOU...in 2 SECONDS for the next Micksterecap as this is a DOUBLE feature!
The FINALE starts off WITH-
-with a VERY nice airship! Look at that woodwork, now THAT is craftsmanship! The ship opens TO REVEAL-
-NEO-and her SNAZZY new look! Look at that jacket, just FULL of snazz! SPEAKING OF SNAZZYNESS-
-HOT DAMN-I never thought wearing a cape the wrong way could look GOOD but Cinder proved me wrong! After the minor fashion show-ITS SHIP SHIFTING TIME!
Cinder:(DAMN I am im-PRESSED by this, SO glad we’re friends now!)
We get it Neo, your semblance is OP, QUIT SHOWIN’ OFF!
Either way, our girls are looking fly as hell and are READY to fight Team FWBYQOMJNR....NEXT volume. Yeah, turns out it was one of THOSE build-ups where its for next season. I know, I’m pissed of too.
But enough about that-A CUT TO-
GOJIRA-slowly making his way to Tokyo bay to REEK ATOMIC TERROR!
This is the time when one could REALLY use a giant robot with a laser canon-
-if not for the fact that a senile old racist wasted it on minor offenders like a crazy person.
After the team realizes that they had a SLIGHT hand in ruining Argus’ defenses against a kaiju level threat, they decide to FLY OFF! Right before CORDOVIN-
“This is YOUR fault, your fault....
....your...fault”.
-ADMITS her own guilt in this to herself! Didn’t expect character development from her, NOW all she has to do is apologize to Blake for casual racism and it’ll be AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL good!
MEANWHILE-on the ship-
-Blake apologizes for her psycho Ex stalking them, ALL while only her, Yang, Nora and Maria(off panel) are sitting down. YOU ARE IN A PLANE-I do not believe that they are hogging all the seats!
Despite the obvious chaos, Maria basically suggests this-
Maria: Okay...what if we just BAIL?!
Everyone:...
Maria:...YEAH I know, gotta be superheroes and what-not, I just REALLY want Cordo to die.
They then all decide to get up close and personal with the thing, Ren and Jaune plan to do their combo move a.k.a. the ONLY semblance Jaune will boost this season-BUT THEN-the monster resurfaces!
*RESIN COATED GLOVE AGAINST A BASS GUITAR!*
Look it up bitches. Its ALSO at this point that Mrs.Terra Cotta-Arc-
-regrets recent life choices that inadvertently lead to her brother in-law and his entourage to destroying Argus’s last defense...also what’s up with that girl in the background? The one with the diamond logo and the bare mid-riff? She a superhero or something? If so...GET TO WORK-there’s a monster to fight!
AW-she’s there for her family and...I’m sorry I just can’t get over that background character’s design, I mean LOOK AT HER-does she have ANY hips to speak of?! I know its just a background character, but STILL bad design.
BUT LUCKILY FOR ARGUS-
-THE SHIELDS GO UP-which I’m sure won’t be damaged at all!
SEE-look at that, COMPLETELY impenetrable!
BAM-even blocks the beast’s elemental attack, NOTHING can break this shie-
*BOOM*
...w...WAIT A MINUTE-the SHIELDS are impenetrable but the pylons MANAGING the shields AREN’T?! That is...a HUGE design flaw, DAMMIT CORDOVIN, this is what you get for spending your defense budget on your Gundam hobby!
This is when everybody just wants to get the HELL out of there but Ruby calls it in-
Ruby: EVERYBODY-me and my scrappy team of rogues is gonna take on that beast, we JUST need you to back us up!
Nubuck: UH-no thank you, we’re nameless soldiers in a fantasy story, WE KNOW what happens to us in this situation!
Either way Ruby is ready to use her magical laser eyes to slow down the beast, by her OWN dang self!
Ruby: Fine, we’ll do it alone if we have to.
Ruby: Let me repeat, I-A SIXTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL-am going to fight a monster ALL by myself...with NO military support...alone.
Look at Cordo, see the GUILT emanating from her!
Either way the plan is set-SUPER TEAMWORK COMBO-
-EMOTION MASK TIMES TWO! Seriously, the ONLY semblance he enhances this season.
They then fly undetected through the chaos while ONE plane gets hit! Exactly ONE...no lie, maybe this army isn’t as bad as I thought if only one plane got knocked down so far.
After just NARROWLY avoiding the blast-
-the beast takes out the SECOND barrier due to the worst design flaw in the world-
-DESTROYING THE TOP TO EXACTLY ONE BUILDING! DAMN-lucky Argus, this is a generally destruction free monster attack!
OOOH-but also RIGHT at the moment Ren and Jaune get crackle, CLOAKS DOWN PEOPLE-cloak is DOWN!
But have no fear-OUR LEADER HAS A PLAN!
Weiss:...giant bee?
Ruby: GIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIANT BEE!
Yang: You rang?
Blake: Oh YOU!
Nora and Yang give cover fire while Blake just...stands there, because her weapon broke. Hey, sometimes your ex smashes your gun-sword in half, it happens.
SEE BLAKE-you just upgraded yourself to Weiss...holder, way to seize the initiative and HOLD THAT WEISS!
Ruby: I know this is stressful but riding a giant bee is still FREAKING AWESOME!
Nora: I CALL NEXT!
Yang: Aw man, I wanted to fly next.
Qrow: QUIT YAMMERING AND KEEP SHOOTING!
Rubalubes than squares up with the great beast and then-
-STARTS A CLIP SHOW TO PSYCHE HER POWERS UP! She ALSO-
-throws that PESKY earpiece RIGHT into the ocean...because turning it OFF is impossible apparently(freakin’ Atlas tech, TOO many design flaws). Either way-CLIP SHOW TIME!
What NICE memories, nothing that would trigger feelings of doubt which would mess with her hea-
SHIT-memories of the dead almost girlfriend-SHIFT FOCUS!
YES-memories of the vomit boy-FOCUS ON THAT!
Nooooooooooooooooooo-
-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!
Focus focus focus FOCUS!
NOT ON THAT!
NOR THAT!
Stay calm, STAY calm-
-AND she’s boned.
Ruby: DAMMIT silver eyes, WORK WHEN I WANT YOU TO WORK!
The beast is in her sights, her powers aren’t working, only ONE thing that can save her now!
Ruby: JINN!
*SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW*
Yang: Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuubyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.
DEUS EX MACHINA-because TELEVISION! Also really wish I could show the illusion of time slowing down better in simple pictures
Pouty Jinn is pouty. Either way she tells her that she’ll only allow her to summon her this this ONE time without asking a question.
Jinn: I must admit, this WAS clever.
Ruby: Heh, yeah, to be FAIR I wasn’t sure if you ACTUALLY slowed down time, or if that was like a “Bill Cipher” style illusion, but yeah I’ll have a real question next time.
Either way-CLIP SHOW RESTART!
Time re-starting is ALSO hard to show with still pictures.
*WAVES MOVE SLIGHTLY FASTER*
You enjoying this so far? You COULD be re-watching the show instead of a slow clip-show of it but O-kay!
Yes, GOOD memories of Pyrrha, GOOD ones!
*MORE SUBTLE TIME RESTARTING*
OH YEAH-she’s still in front of a monster! DAMN-that’s a good timestop, full on ZA WARUDO!
That’s right, good memory of Penny, DON’T PSYCHE OUT!
And just when you thought they weren’t gonna hit us with a feelsbomb-
SUMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER! ALSO-confirmation that Ruby knew what her mom looked like, I wasn’t sure as she died when Rubes was REALLY yong, either way HUZZAH! ALSO-this shot-
Summer’s eyes-
RUBY’S EEYS!
“THERE’S A LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT THERE TO SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE-
- “ AND ITS POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWER IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE!”
Bless you Casey Williams, BLESS you!
Look at the well designed background characters being showed off by Rooster Teeth, THEY ARE PLEASED! Also, look at that glasses wearing mother fucker in the purple jacket, he a WIZARD or something? We coulda used a WIZARD y’know, just saying.
Nubuck1: YEAH-that girl we refused to help stopped the beast!
Nubuck2:...are we terrible at our jobs?
Nubuck3: Just shut up and keep cheering!
Ruby then marvels at the site of a major city that SURVIVED a kaiju-class Grimm attack for once-BUT ALL IS NOT WELL-
*CRACKLE CRACKLE*
*ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAR!*
Ruby: DAMMIT-I meant to fire DISINTEGRATING beams, not FREEZING!
Maria: I now, its LITERALLY the most fickle super power.
But worry not-FOR ALL IS NOT LOST!
Cordo: HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERE I COME, TO SAVE THE DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
Ruby:...okay, thanks for the help, but HOW did you rip your mech’s arm off?
Cordo: HM?! Oh nothing fancy-
Cordo: JUST A BAD ASS DRILL THAT I WILL USE TO PIERCE HEAVEN!
Ruby:...why the HELL didn’t you use that on us before?
Cordo: Honestly I forgot it was there...as well as SEVERAL functions on this mech. Really I shouldn’t be in charge of anything.
Either way-
-she drills the FUCK out of that thing! KILL IT! KILL IT WITH SPINNING!
Man, that’s some NICE dusting!
Once again, the background characters are pleased, including lady hipless over there! Oh lady hipless, I will NEVER understand you.
And even 2/3rds of the Cotta-Arc household are completely enjoying it, while Terra is REALLY hoping this mess won’t come back to her.
Ruby then thanks AND apologizes to Cordo because she’s a NICE young lady, while Cordo gives her team the go ahead to fly out tho Atlas. DOESN’T make up for her mean comment to Blake, BUT progress is progress.
A THEN CUT TO-
-BEAUTIFULLY PAINTED CLOUDS! MAN this show loves to show off and I LOVE IT!
INSIDE the ship-
Ruby’s mentors give her WELL deserved props and Qrow celebrates BY-
-NOT drinking! GOOD ON YOU Qrow, PROGRESS!
D’aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw.
The mentors than have a NICE quick moment.
Maria: For a depressed drunk, you make a great uncle and huntsman.
Qrow: That is...LITERALLY the best compliment you can give me.
Speaking of sweet moments-
FUCK YEAH-hand holding! Now let them KISS dammit!
ALL WHILE-
-RUBY deflects praise like a body does, EVEN points out how Oscar landed a clean crash...OR DID HE?!
Oscar: I...DIDN’T land the plane on my own.
YUP-Ozpin helped him, in a scene that’s BASICALLY this-
Oz: The force Oscar, USE the force!
The team briefly discuss the fact that their creepy wizard principal is most DEFINITELY spying on them before Qrow points out-
THE UNIVERSITY OF CAROLINA IN THE SK-I mean-THE CITY OF ATLAS! Anyone...old enough to get that reference? Scott Pilgrim? Its a story about a guy who dates a 17 year old, dumps her for someone cooler, and we’re supposed to see him as the hero? WEIRDLY good read despite the what the synopsis will make you believe.
We also briefly see-
-THE UNDERCITY OF MANTLE...which...looks like its near an active volcano I think! NO WAIT I see, that’s where the floating city came from...still feel BAD for the poor people of Mantle though.
Either way, they get up there and EVERYTHING is fi-
-ZOOP military blockade, never mind. And we end the adventure of Team RWBYQOMJNR with a MYSTERIOUS line-
Voice: Manta 5-1, welcome home.
Oooooooh, Weiss is in TROUBLLLLLLLE!
And that’s it for them, credits start rolling-NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVERMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE- and then a we get a TEASER because Joss Whedon!
Mercury: I like being depressed in here, it makes me look DEEP!
Emerald also walks in to slightly foreshadow her defection from the Legion of Doom but notices how FREAKED he is...why?
Cause Salem’s making flying MONKEYS that’s why! We ALSO-get a Hazel cameo!
Hazel: There’s an old saying, if you want something done right-
-do it yourself.
WELL-team RWBY’s boned. EITHER WAY, a fantastic season, personally I feel episode 12 had better finale energy than episode 13, BUT outside of a malfunctioning force field still good. I’m also KINDA mad that Neo and Cinder, and pretty much EVERY member of Salem’s faction didn’t get many times to really shine, BUT there’s always next season!
AND WITH THAT-I’l see you either next season of RWBY, or on my Gen:Lock recaps on MICKSTERECAP! Peace out folks.

Ok folks, time for my second Nom Nom ep analysis. I’ve decided to work backwards from most current episode to oldest. It’ll be interesting to re-watch the older eps after all this time, and see just how far our furry little diva and the show in general has evolved since the start.
I’ll see you guys under the cut.
I’m super excited to dig into this episode, as it and Anger Management are currently my absolute favorite episodes in the show’s entire run as of right now. Totally not because I’m biased or anything.
Nom Nom is 100% the star of this one. Our beloved bears don’t even cameo, which hey, that’s ok. As much as I love them, it’s cool for the show to experiment like this to keep things fresh and show us more of the supporting cast.
So we open on a typical day in the life of Nom Nom, with a wonderfully detailed look at his mansion. We’ve seen it appear in past episodes, but this time we really get a good look at every room. It’s a real treat!
Behold! The sleeping Nom Nom, in all his glory. He is beauty. He is grace.
It’s honestly pretty darn adorable when his bodyguard picks him up like a tiny rag-doll. Adorable, but kinda sad at the same time because poor Noms just looks so dead tired here. He’s still somehow got bags under his eyes even while resting.
This leads me to believe he probably gets up early everyday and goes to bed late, constantly working on videos/making guest appearances/etc, all to stay in the public eye. Since to him, staying relevant and loved by the masses is quite literally his livelihood. No wonder the upcoming Vacation ep has him being told by a doctor to take some time off.
That freaking muscular Nom Nom painting kills me every time, I swear.
*Ahem* Yes, so, hilariously narcissistic paintings aside, we see that Noms spends pretty much every waking moment with this one particular bodyguard. Yet even with constant company he’s completely detached from the world. Just look at how emotionally closed off he is here.
Speaking of this bodyguard, he’s actually been around since the very start of the show, and has clearly been Noms’ most dedicated hired help since the very beginning. It’s great that this episode finally fleshes out this nameless character who has been with us since the start.
The only time Nom Nom is shown to be happy during this entire montage is when he’s watching his own youeveryone’s tube videos. That was a cute joke way back in Panda Sneeze, as the idea of a character regarding his 5 second long videos as though they were Oscar worthy performances is pretty darn funny.
Still though, Noms really does take his “work” seriously. Like, they’re only seconds long, but he really puts his all into them. He also painstakingly calculates his every move in them.
“Ah, I’m so good. Bravo, Nom Nom! It’s all about the subtlety. You can’t just throw the cute into people’s faces.”
He’s been doing this so long that he’s become a master at manipulating the audience. Imagine baby Nom Nom catching on at a very early age that the more the people watching him go ‘d’aww,’ the better he’ll be treated.
All right, all right, moving right along. Nom Nom appears on TV for an interview.
Hmm... looks like Kate got rid of Tom.
Nom Nom sounds incredibly fake and rehearsed during this interview. Especially later on during the phone call. His incredibly forced surprise of “Ah, what is this? What’s going on here?” is telling of just how many times he’s done this sort of thing. The only time he drops the stiff act is when asked about his family.
Now ok, I’ll admit the whole ‘carries around a photo of his long lost family with him at all times’ was pretty darn out of the blue. But you gotta remember, when the show first started, it seems Noms was created and written to be a flat antagonist and nothing more. He was just a foil to the bears.
But now that the show’s gone on longer, Noms has apparently grown on the crew (as well as some of the fans) so they must have thought, hey? Why not flesh the little guy out some more?
And giving him long lost siblings, I think, was a pretty smart move. It makes his interactions with the bears in past episodes even more interesting, as now there’s the added layer of them having something he lost. A loving family.
And yeah, I’m totally with Kate. That picture is SO CUTE. ;_;
Nom Nom, in a rare show of honesty and vulnerability, says on TV in front of millions that if he’s ever reunited with his family, he’ll share his wealth with them. The perfect bait for any greedy con-artists watching at home.
Can I just say, the music that plays during the phone call is incredibly unnerving. It’s this chilling old music box sounding sorta thing, and it really does a great job of foreshadowing what’s to come.
Noms tries to laugh off the phone call at first, but the second he hears the word “brother?”
I think he had a mini heart-attack.
The mysterious caller is brought to Noms’ mansion, and wow. Really? The TV crew is still there? Noms isn’t allowed to have a private life, is he?
“Sir, I can’t tell if he’s your brother. Honestly, all koalas look alike to me.”
Pfffffffft. Wow, guy.
I already made a post about this joke before, but just... pfffft, lol. It’s such a good one. And it makes me wonder... if the bears have been said to represent Asian Americans trying to find acceptance, then what the heck does a talking internet famous koala represent??
So yes, enter Kyle. Our little con-artist. I wonder how long he’d been planning this scam. He must have seen this rich, famous koala on the internet/TV and thought, “Man, I’d like a cut of that.” And now the perfect opportunity has finally presented itself.
Also, a little side-note here: Kyle has a thick Australian accent, whereas Nom Nom doesn’t. So this probably means Noms was taken from Australia very young and raised in the states.
Noms is understandably super skeptical of this guy until Kyle takes off his hat, revealing the fake eyebrows made to look like the eyebrows of one of the siblings in Nom Nom’s picture. Though... wouldn’t it have been easier to just pretend to be one of the siblings with thin eyebrows?
Eh, whatever, The eyebrows are what fools Nom Nom, and that’s all that’s important.
As soon as our favorite little spoiled marsupial is fooled, the unthinkable happens: He hugs him. He emotionally opens up and lets his “brother” in. It’s such a huge swerve to see Nom Nom like this. He’s secretly been so lonely that he wants this to be true. For the person in front of him to really be his brother and to finally not feel alone in the world.
Noms shows Kyle around his estate, which is awesome to see.
It’s a little sad how Nom Nom has places that are obviously meant to be enjoyed with other people, like the bowling alley for example. I guess it only gets use during publicity parties, cause, well. We now know for certain that Noms doesn’t have real friends.
The trophy room is by far the best, as it’s full of current pop-culture jokes. What will people who watch this show decades from now possibly think?
And wow, I was not expecting to ever see that hamster again. For some reason he’s apparently living in the trophy room, which, uh... sure. Ok. Just shrug and go with it. Honestly, it’s nice just knowing Noms and the hamster are apparently on good terms now.
The biggest surprise is learning that, even though Nom Nom never found his family, he did manage to find his childhood tree and had it flown all the way over to San Francisco to make it a centerpiece in his house. It’s either go hard or go home with Nom Nom. Dang.
I gotta commend Kyle for his really good acting here. He breaks down into what look like genuine tears upon seeing the tree, and asks Nom Nom if he still climbs it. Noms says no, which toootaaally won’t be important later. ;)
This whole time they’re followed around by Nom Nom’s same bodyguard, who seems deeply concerned about Nom Nom the entire time.
“Oh, he’s just bodyguard number....?”
“#1, sir! Bodyguard number #1!”
Number #1, huh? Like, the very first bodyguard Nom Nom has ever had, and who is still to this day working for him? He must of been with Noms since, what? Possibly his childhood/cubhood? Maybe. I don’t work on the show, so all I can do is blindly assume and theorize like most fans. But it would explain why this guy is so protective (and maybe even paternal) toward the little guy.
Anywho-- Noms and Kyle have dinner, with Noms still talking exclusively about himself and his Hollywood experiences. Again, it’s really cute that he and the Hamster get along now. I wish Nom Nom would realize there are people out there like Hamster and the bears who are willing to be his real friends.
Kyle mentions their family, and Noms’ narcissism subsides for a brief moment.
“Y’know mate? Our family would have been really proud of your success.”
“You... you think?”
Show, why you gotta make me feel sad like this? I went into this for slice of life fun times, dang it. Why must you do this? ;_;
Noms invites Kyle to stay, but bodyguard-dad is hesitant, warning Nom Nom to do a background check first. This must have tipped Kyle off to get rid of the guy, so he won’t be able to pull apart his scheme. He pretends to choke on orange juice, prompting Nom Nom to become protective of him and fire the bodyguard for potentially “poisoning” his brother. Kyle already knows how to play Noms like a fiddle.
Bodyguard-dad is devastated, further adding to the theory that he’s been there for Noms for a long, looong time. Noms, again, is too closed off to realize that there are already people around who care about him.
With that obstacle gone, Kyle can further worm himself into Nom Nom’s life, under the guise of being the best friend Noms has never had. Oh ho, you tricky little fuzzball.
Kyle puts on a very convincing show during their second interview with Kate, really pulling out the waterworks. Again, I do have to commend the guy on his acting skills. When I first saw this ep, I was almost fooled by him too.
And just look how sweet and loving Nom Nom looks. Reaching for his brother’s hand to comfort him. Giving him an encouraging smile. Deep down he’s capable of so much love, argh.
Without hesitation, he offers his long lost brother half of his fortune. Not the smartest move, sure. But dang, he must truly be desperate to not be alone anymore and have someone around who truly understands him if he’s willing to take such a huge risk like that.
Urrggh. I’m heartbroken by how legit cute they were here. Why, Kyle? WHY?!
“Oh, I’m so happy.”
Stop hurting me, show. ;_;
And just like that, things immediately start to go sour. Kyle’s voice actor does this amazing turn from timid and sweet sounding, to downright sinister. Kudos to him.
“Listen mate. I promise, brother. You won’t regret this.”
Uh oh.
Red flag. RED FLAG.
Unfortunately, Noms just shrugs it off, as it seems his desire for a family outweighs his better judgment.
Y’know, the absolute saddest thing about this episode is how much Nom Nom was starting to change for the better. He was genuinely happier. His disgruntled ‘annoyed with everything and everyone’ attitude was slowly starting to fade after opening up and letting himself trust someone. But since it turns out to be a giant lie, it’ll be all the more difficult for Nom Nom to ever trust anyone again in the future.
“I have a brother! I have a brother! I. Have. A BROOTHEEER!! ...brother! That really hurt, but I don’t care, ‘cause I have a broootheeer~!”
I really wish I knew how to make gifs, because still pictures just aren’t able to do this moment justice. It’s simultaneously hilarious and adorable. It’s great to see Nom Nom happy and relaxed enough to let himself be silly like this.
Ah, but of course, it doesn’t last. It’s time for the shoe to finally drop.
Noms’ reaction is just. Wow. It really hits the guy hard. He doesn’t have a brother after all. Heck, he doesn’t have a family at all, since this subsequently means that all those tender stories Kyle fed him about the rest of their family were all lies too. Honestly, whether you hate Noms or not, this is still one of the cruelest things one could ever do to a person.
Nom Nom turns away, clutching his chest when the revel happens. As if I didn’t feel sad enough watching this.
Kyle tries in vain to salvage the situation, but what’s done is done. Nom Nom, now no longer blinded with sentimentality, pieces it all together. That Kyle’s just a fraud who wanted to get close to him for fame and fortune.
“But think about it. We both get something out of this. I mean, you were alone before I came along. We don’t have to be related to still be brothers.”
Geez, this makes that one scene from Nom Nom’s Entourage even sadder in hindsight.
“Look, I know a lot of people think I’m confident because of my good looks and solid hygiene, but it really comes from havin’ good friends like my bros.”
Both scenes are even framed the same way. This really helps to make us understand Noms’ disdain for the bears better. Great job, bear crew!
Nom Nom stays turned away from Kyle, probably because he doesn’t want to give Kyle the satisfaction of having made him cry. Noms is real proud like that. He forcibly swallows down his sadness, letting himself fall back onto the one emotion he can always rely on: RAGE.
He demands Kyle leave, but Kyle’s got the contract that now legally entitles him to half of Noms’ fortune. Plus there’s no more loyal bodyguard around to kick him out. Oh, what’s a small koala to do?
“You’re. Going to give me. That contract.”
You done f--ed up, Kyle. You done f--ed up.
“Go get ‘em, Nom Nom!”
That hamster’s only had, like, what? Three lines during the course of this whole show? Yet he’s by far one of the best minor characters~
So a chase commences, and Kyle very quickly learns that of all the characters on this show, the one who will bring the wrath of God down upon you the quickest is the small angry koala.
Their scuffle leads them to the bathroom, where Noms pulls out the hairdryer from earlier.
Does this look like the face of mercy?
He looks so hilarious with that incredibly serious face. Even Kyle finds it amusing until...
Bye bye, contract. Noms is one resilient little guy.
It gets blown into the giant eucalyptus tree from earlier, which leads the koala battle up the tree’s bark. We are then treated to a wonderfully silly shoutout when Noms gets knocked out of the tree.
Oh, bless this show and it’s love of viral animal videos.
Also, please, let us all just take a moment to picture in our minds Patton Oswalt being shown this crying koala video while in the recording studio, then being asked to mimic the exact same high pitched shrieking. xD
Ok, back to serious time. The fight over the contract finally arrives at its’ climax when Noms is again knocked out of the tree. This time most certainly not played for laughs.
The episode reaches it’s darkest point when Kyle, upon seeing Nom Nom helplessly dangling under him for his life, realizes something.
“It says here that if something happens to one of us, the other one gets the entire estate. So... it looks like I don’t really need you at all.”
Man, what is it with the more serious antagonists on this show and leaving people to fall to their deaths?
After a very cruel, mocking goodbye, Kyle takes the contract and leaves Nom Nom for dead. Wow, just typing that sentence out feels so bizarre. How is this lighthearted show able to get so dark all of a sudden? It pulls this kind of thing more and more frequently in recent seasons. I’m getting scared, guys.
Nom Nom nearly falls to his death, which wow, twice in two episodes in a row has he nearly died. He’s really being thrown through the ringer. This time it arguably would have been an even worse death, what with the last thing he’d ever feel being betrayal, and the knowledge that he lived and died completely alone.
Oh... I made myself sad. :(
Thankfully bodyguard-dad shows up to save him. He was there all along, taking care of our beloved little dingle in secret, which further makes me believe he helped raise Nom Nom in some way. He’s just so loving and protective toward the little guy. There’s got to be more to his devotion than just getting a paycheck.
Also, I’m gonna assume bodyguard-dad put out the fire started by the candles during Nom Nom and Kyle’s chase. That way I don’t have to worry about the mansion burning down.
Bodyguard-dad also alerted the authorities off-screen, and apparently did that background check after all.
Kyle’s misdeeds catch up to him and he’s carried off by the cops. Kyle was a really great antagonist, and I hope he shows up again someday. I have no idea how he’d ever be able to, but still. Noms having a true and proper foe made for great drama. They brought Ralph back, so who knows when it comes to ol’ Kyle.
“Ha! Good riddance. Didn’t need no brother anyway.”
Yup. I’m sure this whole thing had no negative effect on you in any way.
The episode ends on a sweet note, with Nom Nom finally asking his bodyguard what his actual name is (it’s Farmer). A baby step, sure, but hey, it’s something. Especially since from the looks of things, it’s going to be all the more difficult for Noms to trust and open up to people after this entire awful ordeal.
Farmer/bodyguard-dad is a precious soul.
Also, Nom Nom takes naps. That’s great for two reasons. Number 1: Goodness knows the little grump could use more rest. Number 2: That’s just plain adorable to visualize.
Oh my goodness, at long last this one’s over. I’m looking over everything I wrote and am just like... yikes. To anyone who was patient enough to actually read all my yammering: You, my friend, are a real trooper!
I’m gonna go dive into bed now, so g’night folks. I’ll see you in the next one~
