#I mean I also think it issss kinda like. she wants it for Herself to a degree

Macbethposting Friday anyway I am thinking about the come you spirits etc etc and just… the implications of it all. Lady Macbeth’s motivations to do the Thing aka kill Duncan aka have Macbeth be king aka be queen herself are never cleared up and only there to be built with clues. But in any case— whether self-serving or altruistic (wanting it for Macbeth not herself)— it’s something extreme.

Extreme enough to make her want to rid herself of her very nature to achieve it. She’s insane 2 me bc she’s self-aware but not self-aware enough to know that going against who she really is will end terribly. But thing is that she Knows that she, as she is, with the qualities she has Now, won’t be able to do it. She’s desperate enough to say “okay, make me able to do it then. Rid me of my nature. Make it impossible for me to prevent myself.”

Like, the Thing that makes her do it, whatever it is, has to be big enough to get her to That Level and I fear there’s too little talk of… what it could be that also makes sense.

#j.txt #Macbeth #lady Macbeth #u see my issue w most character analyses of her is that none rly wanna go deep in2 Why She’s Like That #like they’re all like oooo she’s evil and Wicked and Manipulative and Girlboss etc etc and leave it there. #like yeah we love her for it. WHY tho. why #can i PLEASE get some substantial character analysis up in here. pleas #I do personally think it has to do with the whole losing a child/failing her duty as a wife/medieval noblewoman #aka she wants to rid herself of that humiliation but also just do something 4 Macbeth #the whole I couldn’t give u a child so I’ll give u a crown deal #I mean I also think it issss kinda like. she wants it for Herself to a degree #and is confusing that ambition w Macbeths #no I don’t want it HE does #I’m not doing this for me I do it for HIM #(it’s also for her. but that’s buried under many layers of simulated altruism ) #actually idk if that’ll even go w the play lol but it’s a fun silly concept #anyway she in general is very silly. why are u SO fucksd up. who made you like this.

Halfway throught Vol 6 now and i'm basically in the heated middle of Bomb Girl's arc, I know more or less where it's going but this arc surprised me enough i want to wait to finish it before disclosing any full opinion on Reze herself in particular, because i gotta say, it's really not what i expected

Reze herself is far less sympathetic than the fans made me believe, and way less competent too, as spy i mean, as warrior/enemy she's freaking OP, but for good reasons, she feels like a stronger Katana Man but without team and complex plan to cover her back, and speaking of that even if her plan to get Denji is just.... eh at least she has the power to fight half of Japan's PS without any problem, and speaking of that, it just came to me how so many devil hunters seems to treat devils like regular criminals and not like the supernatural entity they are, even Reze commented on PS needed permission to shot to a fucking devil! I guess there is some commentary to hunters being either weak or crazy idiots, but it also seem like Aki, Kishibe and Himeno were the only humans with some competence behind them, Kon is catching Ls tho

Denji has been kinda MIA for now and Power has become less relevant than Kobeni (and she was the ONLY to be spared by Reze probably for how pathetic she seemed lmaooo), but now he has woken up he is doing interesting stuff again kinda?

Again, waiting the end of the arc for him too, but I think Reze has taken the part of the (villain) protagonist of this arc but we are seeing it with Denji's eyes

As for the new devil/fiends interoduced, Princi has yet to do anything, Violence has not done a lot too but he's hilarious so I forgive him, Reze complimenting him when his Super Kick failed was oddly nice, Beam is the goat and much smarter than he looks, he knows shit no one else does and I love it, Angel issss ok? Himeno replacement nothing too special about him yet, more competent and hard-working than he gives himself credit for

Aaaaaand that's it for now, let's see how it ends

Season 2, Episode 11 - The Last Hope

Jeez. If this is the last hope, then we’ll be relying on it a lot over the rest of this show with seasons in the double digits, huh?

[21:11] Man, that clock’s going to end soon, huh?

[20:50] Welp, is this… what’s its name again? The Overlord? Is it going to call Garmadon out for DARING to NOT WANT TO MURDER HIS SON? I get you don’t do feelings, sentient voice, but c’mon.

[20:29] AaaaaND back to the ninja! Who I guess are just kinda chilling rn

[20:12] jdjdjdd

[20:07] puns! also Cole remains in his position of Just Very Fucking Buff

[19:54] ~and our Witty Quips,

[19:38] I get that Wu has a point, but god, what a buzzkill.

[19:29] Bird! Bird! Bird! The bird’s being fixed, hallelujah!

[19:16] Let’s go, Falcon, let’s go!

[19:04] oi! Cole, watch what you’re aiming at! Least Zane’s there quick enough???

[19:00] agreed on the reflexes thing. I…. I probably would’ve been that crying cat photo if it got shot down aGAIN by Cole.

 ^^^ referring to THAT one. There’s a lot of crying cat pics.

[18:30] god I love the sibling dynamics in the group. god, like, everyone feels… like, despite how wild this show is, the characters get along really well and support each other and feel like they have like, (referring to the general, mainly platonic sense) chemistry? 

[18:19] Uh, okay. No dad-fighting after all?

[17:57] okaaay i guess we gotta do more lorrreee

[17:46] How do you know if the clock WILL stop, Wu? It could simply keep going.

[17:41] please tell Jay what bequeathed- wait I can do that

volia! now you know what it means

man I should not do all these photos at once

[17:29] But like, yeah. They’re right, how the hell are they gonna do all that

[16:47] and cut to our villains, who are… prepping defences, what have you

[16:21] hey will the evil glowy orb just shut up

[16:03] god the soldiers are just watching this all go down. drama… live

[15:44] Shit. Misako’s turned herself in for this. This is the first time I think we’re going to see Misako and Garmadon interact… how is this going to blow over?

[15:39] I mean, “handed” herself in. The ninja are posing as soldiers.

[15:34] the braincell... where is it

[15:32] gUYS GUYS GUYS… FIND YOUR BRAINCELL AND NOTICE THIS IS LOOKING REALLY SUS RIGHT NOW

[15:27] ...no. that’s not going to work.

[15:25] how do the VAs record this without either groaning into their palms or laughing at how dumb they sound oh my goddd

[15:22] and no braincells were found that night

[15:07] that did NOT work. and so she’s being taken away anyhow

[14:47] welp, let’s see how this goes down

[14:24] back to the ninja, who i guess are practicing their quips now 

(Zane) “It’s *ice* to meet you!”

[14:11] uhhhh just go, guys

[14:06] (Subtitles) [NINJAS SPEAKING GIBBERISH] man you can see where they just gave up

[13:59] Christ, Garmadon. You’re going to hold your wife at swordpoint?

[13:31] GARMADON WE ALL KNOW YOU’RE LYING THROUGH YOUR PROBABLY UNNATURAL AMOUNT OF TEETH

[13:19] and he takes the helmet off!

[13:18] girofjjjjjjhy HIS HAIR… DESPERATELY NEEDS A GOOD BRUSH IT GOT… ALL KINDS OF MESSED UP UNDER HIS HELMET, HUH

[13:06] And now Garmadon’s made the proposition that Misako rule by him,

[13:05] so before we can see an answer, we cut back to the ninja.

[12:46] guys PLEASE cut out speaking English when you’re around these guys, why haven’t you realised this already

[12:28] Huh. It is a pretty big cannon.

[12:23] COLE I BEG OF YOU PLEASE FIND THE TEAM’S BRAINCELL AND USE IT

(casts hand over the ninja) i love you all but you are being so dumb

[12:18] F.

[12:13] welp, you’re ditched the disguises, huh

[12:05] let’s! fight! and! make! bad! puns!

[11:50] okay they’ve found the braincell and now are using it for puns. ain’t that how it be

[11:31] Oh. Misako’s going to make a run for the helmet, huh?

[10:57] alright boys let’s do some more fighting, because this is like… half the advertised draw of the show

[10:32] pre-emptive Ouch.

[10:30] Ouchhh.

[10:09] Kai is now the current Mood as he just fucking blasts the ground with fire from his fire sword out of frustration

[10:06] that… didn’t work tho

[10:03] oh god. right in the head

[9:51] Nya! She came to save your asses! Once again, I will state that I love her so much she’s just so great

[9:42] bord!!!

[9:01] djjfjdjd

[8:58] (Nya, fairly casually in this situation (being chased underground) when Jay jokingly puts on the helmet) “If that helmet turns you evil we’re kicking you out.”

[8:39] welp!

[8:02] guys you better fucKINg sPEED UP

[7:32] and they’re being shaken

[7:26] God, that thing’s STRONG.

[7:06] OH SHIT. LLOYD.

[6:56] This is it, then, isn’t it?

[6:28] alright, somebody has to strike first.

[6:07] Lloyd *can’t* do it.

[5:12] Alright, let’s (probably not) stop the clock!

[4:36] SHIIIT

[4:11] C’mon Cole. I understand you wouldn’t be the like, nimblist guy of the team but you’ve really gotta go

[3:52] nice job, butterfingers

[3:16] Wait, they actually stopped it?

[3:07] nooope

[2:40] honestly I’m part thankful the music is still there over the horns. it’d be downright scary if it was just the droning of the horns and nothing else.

[2:27] shit’s breaking!

[2:09] welp

[1:40] this isn’t going too well…

[1:37] GUYS PLEASE STOP FIGHTING

[1:10] Oh god. Oh god.

[0:47] Oh, thank you bodiless voice. Garmatron. You couldn’t have thought of a better name? You pathetic voice? Who can’t do shit because you DON’T EVEN HAVE A BODY FUCK OFF RIGHT NOW YOU DON’T DESERVE THE INFLUENCE YOU HAVE, MR “I CAN’T EVEN PUN FOR CRAP”, ALRIGHT? Okay, I got that out of my system.
