And now.....ladies,gentlemen,nb pals n gals,my fellow shang tsimps. It is time. For the best iteration of shang tsung.
The 1995 mortal kombat movie shang tsung!!!!!! *intense incoherent screams of joy*
🥺💖🥰😫💕
❤🐉💚🐍💀❤🐉💚🐍💀❤🐉💚🐍💀❤🐉
Ok look some things in the 95 movie is dated,stinky,and omfg why did they do that?! Buuuuuuuut. BUT! i still feel it holds up and truly captured the essence of mortal kombat. And not many other versions. Can hold up. Not counting any games. Other mk media outside the games. Very few come close. Because it's that fucking iconic. If it wasn't for this movie. We wouldn't have a bop fire of a fucking theme song. No guy screaming viciously "MORTAL KOMBAT!!!" No amazing reappearance of tagawa shang tsung. No mk11. Hell no futher games. It would have faded into obscurity. So the success of this movie. Laid the foundation of future games,and mk media. So pay your fucking respects! *stares intensely at 21 movies jaxs actor for dissing raidens actor in the 95 for no fucking real reason because he wanted 15min of fame,not even talking about how game devs have been racist to his own character jax,guys just dumb to me fr. Sorry i dont like him,his attitude sucks* (srry bout that but tho the 21 movie reboot is bland the actors were ok. Cept jaxs actor. He sucks but mostly cuz his attitude. Sorry i dont like people like that. But this ain't bout him)
Anyways. Shang tsung in the 95 movie (aside from the cringe af 90s villain i have to simp after the only girl character in the roster cuz kitana is just exposition. Ugh. God that's fucking awful. And also ooc. But whatever its the 90s.) shang tsung is boss af here.
Bending the rules. Being such a gracious host. Sassy,sexy,suave,powerful.
Like god damn shang is there anything you can't do?!
.....well.....besides having a hard time taking down one shaolin bromie,liu kang. Oof. But that's besides the point.
(Then again liu has always had plot armor and script convenience to him. Thats another oof.)
But yes. The 95 movie shang. Go watch it. Ignore the cringe shit with sonya. Ignore the dated cgi. And ignore the 90s cheese(or dont if thats your thing) but please for the love of god dont sleep on this damn movie. Dont sleep on 95 shang tsung. Pay you fucking dues!
💀🐉❤🐍💚💀🐉❤🐍💚💀🐉❤🐍💚💀🐉
Well fellow simps thats all the shang appreciation posts for today. I might do more kontent later. Enjoy
💕 >3<

Oh actually there’s running gag in how convenient that a lot of historical figures are in one game
AC syndicate is one of the most infamous, because despite it taking over a year. We meet Frederick Abberline, Charles Dickinson and Darwin(actually there a lot of tongue meta jokes with him. As his theory of evolution is still accurate in ac. He doesn’t know that humanity to primatesto what dogs are to wolves), Karl Marx (sadly you can’t kill him), Alexander Graham Bell, Nightingale, and the motherfucking Queen Victoria
Not counting dlc with Arthur Doyle and Deup Singh
And yes we do have dlc centered around Jack the Ripper
Oh shit I forgot there ww1 segment where you work with Winston Churchill
Another thing, so in the halo series, there a propaganda line of “Spartans never die, there just Missing In Action”
It took Herdotus in odyessy, yes the Father of History (or Lies to the Egyptians), saying that Spartan poem of them being immortal I went
“Wait that where halo got it from?!”
Actually leaks said William Adams is going to be in the game too. I presuming third act or late game, wait could Adams travel to other places after becoming a samurai? I can see him being used a mechanic to explain how we can go to other countries like India
Btw I meet Rolo of Normandy in Valhalla when he was 17…in a medieval bdsm dungeon while he blindfolded and wiped
Dear god Middle Ages England was truly the apocalypse
Also I only realize it after the endgame…young Rolo actually lives in my settlement for a bit
But yeah I can see them making up a relationship with Yasuke and William Adams. Oh another joke
A Japanese: another Gajin join us?’
Yasuke: Yes and make him a proper samurai this time
Oh this is Valhalla main menu theme. But rest to sure the ac red music will be authentic
https://youtu.be/bApSPN-5TxQ?si=FcMKeReMxCuxGpxW
Hell the teaser trailer I sent actually ends with the game Japanese cover of ac iconic song ezio family
Lots of stuff ending with Oh shit I forgot there ww1 segment where you work with Winston Churchill
Doyle and Churchill don't quite fit, Deup Singh either but in the other direction
It took Herdotus in odyessy, yes the Father of History (or Lies to the Egyptians), saying that Spartan poem of them being immortal I went “Wait that where halo got it from?!”
Josephus is a good historian to read too, and it's entirely possible that's where they got it, not sure the poem tho so can't say for sure.
Actually leaks said William Adams is going to be in the game too. I presuming third act or late game, wait could Adams travel to other places after becoming a samurai? I can see him being used a mechanic to explain how we can go to other countries like India
Ya Tokegawa let him go back to England even at some point, he had freedom of movement probably had to still have permission from the boss to leave Japan but well
List of foreign-born samurai (Yasuke doesn't make the cut because they can't 100% prove he was or wasn't a samurai.) but this list goes through their credentials or however you want to put it.
For Addams it was
250 koku. He was granted the rank of Hatamoto, a fief and 80-90 servants. Interpreter and shipwright of Tokugawa Shogunate.
Only one managed a higher worth.
Btw I meet Rolo of Normandy in Valhalla when he was 17…in a medieval bdsm dungeon while he blindfolded and wiped Dear god Middle Ages England was truly the apocalypse
Not just in Europe either, though that's where we have the specific information about things, shit was bad in Asia, the middle east, and Africa too. Lots of those areas had the same problem too.
But yeah I can see them making up a relationship with Yasuke and William Adams. Oh another joke A Japanese: another Gajin join us?’ Yasuke: Yes and make him a proper samurai this time
I take it Yasuke managed to pick up the language ok then, Addams did ok but still had a interpreter with him all the time too just in case.
youtube
Oh that's pretty
Hell the teaser trailer I sent actually ends with the game Japanese cover of ac iconic song ezio family
I didn't catch that apparently, that's cool af

My thoughts on the Super Mario Movie
Tumblr media
My autistic ass needs someone to talk to about this film and I have nobody. I know I don’t post as often anymore on here but I need to let this energy out. Here’s what did work and didn’t work
What did work:
the animation: DAMN. It looked amazing. I loved how smooth they looked on screen and the details of the character models, the background, etc. You can tell they put a lot of love into it. It felt so nice to see our favorite video game characters on screen like this. All of the references were such a joy to find and recognize. It’s also crazy that Mario came from being an 8bit model to this glorious, detailed, 3D model. And some scenes “camera” moved in a way that would be in a game. When Mario and Luigi were on their way to their first plumbing job, the “camera” moved sideways as the first Mario games were side-scrolling. When Toad and Mario were heading to the castle and poor Mario was being thrown around, the “camera” moved around like I guess the newer games? I mean it looked like Super Mario Odyssey but there could be other games, I haven’t played every single one (now I want to). Really cool attention to detail. My autistic ass loves attention to detail. The models looked good as well like Bowser’s scales and the brothers’ clothing. Funny how 3D animation wasn’t as detailed before like with Veggietales and Toy Story 1 but now we have HAIR. You get it.
The music: Some parts hit, some didn’t. I loved the orchestral remixes of our beloved songs. When the kart scene came on, I immediately recognized the music and felt PUMPED, especially when they were making the karts and I heard the Mario Kart 8 theme. I wanted to jump out of my seat but couldn’t cause I didn’t wanna be weird. Hearing the theme songs as well felt satisfying. It scratched that itch I didn’t know I needed to be scratched. I found myself listening to the soundtrack right after. I’m glad they chose 80’s songs rather than fucking Doja Cat or whatever but it still threw me off hearing Take On Me, Holding Out for a Hero, and Mr. Blue Sky. (Cmon Shrek did Holding Out better. No topping it) As much as I love those songs, I remembered that this is an Illumination movie so of course they’d have popular songs. If they left the pop songs in the human world and kept the Mario songs in the Mushroom kingdom, etc, it would’ve made a little more sense. No Sleep til Brooklyn was good tho, made sense cause they live in Brooklyn and they were in the human world.
Chris Pratt: Yes, I know everyone was skeptical of Chris Pratt playing Mario. I love Chris in Guardians of the Galaxy as Peter Quill so I didn’t have much doubt but since he is a celebrity and you know how movies these days (mainly Illumination) love to get big names in their films. I wasn’t disappointed. He was good, not bad. As much as I love Martinet’s iconic Mario, I don’t think I’d be able to handle hearing it the whole time. It’s iconic but let’s be real hearing “let’s-a-go!” the whole time is a bit jarring. Mario’s from Brooklyn so that’s what Chris tried. And his Wahoo! was good! You knew he didn’t want to ruin this character because of how much it holds. He TRIED. And Martinet as Giuseppe saying “it’s a perfect!” Felt like he was sharing the torch with Chris. He squished all the critics doubts by saying “he’s Mario too, it’s fine. Deal with it.” Hearing the voice made me smile so wide, it was like hearing an old friend. I think he even said that doing Mario’s voice too much hurt so we don’t want him to feel any pain for our sake! We all owe Chris an apology. You did great bro
Seth Rogan: I love DK. He’s big, loud, goofy, and strong. Seth did that right and honestly idk who else would play him. Hearing Seth’s iconic laugh made me laugh, idk who can hate it. It fit DK as it kind of…sounded ape-like? The whole fight between Mario and DK was straight out of a game. I loved the interaction between DK and Mario. They’re enemies at first but soon, they respect each other as in the games. I wish that wasn’t the whole character development between two characters in the movie, I wish it was Mario & Luigi, Mario and toad, or Mario and Peach. Hell, even Mario and Bowser. But this is only the first movie so we’ll see more
Anna-Taylor Joy: not much to say about her. I think Peach was fun and I’m glad they didn’t go the “damsel in distress” or “girl boss” route. I’m tired of woke. We get it, we’re becoming SOMEWHAT better in terms of shit like that but god we don’t need it every time. Peach was a badass, she cared for her kingdom and subjects, and she was sweet. That’s Peach! It wasn’t the “I don’t need no man” or forced relationship with Mario and that was good. I loved Peach’s racing outfit too and all the power ups. Peach was awesome, I’m glad they didn’t ruin her
Charlie Day: I haven’t seen much of him but wow I loved his Luigi! I always loved Luigi, he was always the b guy and he deserves a lot of love. He’s adorable. I wish Luigi had more of an interaction with Bowser. We could’ve gotten a lot of funny scenes with them together (of course it’d be fuel to the shipping fire) and it was cut too short. I mean, bowser didn’t need MUCH from Luigi, he just needed information so it wouldn’t make sense why he’d keep him around when he could throw him in the dungeon with Luma, the penguins, etc. And the whole thing with Mario and Luigi “sticking together” was nice but…they weren’t together AS much? Yes, Bowser kidnapped him but idk it didn’t really feel so emotional. Their team up at the end was amazing of course, had the biggest smile with the star music on. Luigi must be protected
Keegan-Michael Key: His Toad was good! Kind of wished we saw more of Toad and Mario together but he was the comic relief. Sucked he wasn’t in it as much but maybe next movie.
Jack Black: MY MAN. GOD HE KILLED IT. Was that any surprise? No, everyone knew Jack was gonna bring his a-game and he did. Bowser’s singing was amazing, I was cracking up during that scene. PEACHES PEACHES PEACHES aah it’s good. I loved how Bowser went from his usual scary self to a big sweetheart who just wants to love someone. Yea, he did threaten to kill Peach’s kingdom if she didn’t marry him but hey he said he wouldn’t if she agreed! You can absolutely tell Jack loved his role and that’s so important in movies for it to turn out well. Honestly, I’d say Bowser was my favorite in the whole movie! (Ngl, Bowser kinda..) Bowser was intimidating at parts, especially with Luigi. He was a lot scarier than I remembered and damn he is a power house. Im surprised that I didn’t see him utilize his shell and spin with it but whatever.
The story: yes there wasn’t much of a big plot. Do I care? Not really. It’s Mario! You don’t really need a plot per se because you already know the characters, you know the concept of Super Mario. To me, it was as if I was playing a really well animated game. It was fast, fun, and left me with a warm fuzzy feeling. The plot WAS Bowser coming, Mario and Luigi starting a company and not feeling like they’re on top. You don’t need a different story with Mario. Yes, this movie wasn’t on the level of Into the Spider-Verse or Puss in Boots like we were expecting but it didn’t need to be. I had a great time with a story or not
The sound effects: god, the little kid in me wanted to SCREAM. It felt so satisfying to hear all the sounds we hear in the games from hitting a shell, hitting the mystery box, or landing on the flag pole at the end of a level. They really hit the nail with them. And Luigi’s ringtone was GameCube!!
Oh yeah I loved Kamek’s voice. He sounded exactly how I pictured it. He was great. Loved the scene of him dressing up as Peach and getting ANGRY that he didn’t kiss Bowser
What didn’t work:
The slow motion moments: this was when I remembered “oh yea, illumination made this.” Some of the moments were fine with Mario giving Peach a side eye (with rizz). That was funny. But all the other times, it felt like the screaming goats in Thor Love and Thunder. In other words, it was used too much. To me, the slow-motion parts are just “haha, their voice is deep and slow. They move slowly. Haha funny joke.”
The songs: I did say the songs worked but they didn’t at the same time. I LOVED hearing all the familiar songs and sounds from the games. I liked the 80’s songs as Mario was made in the 80’s but it didn’t fit movie. As I said, it would’ve been better if they kept the 80’s songs in the human world and the Mario-esque songs in the Mushroom Kingdom, etc. But Illumination has gotta…illuminate I guess
The pacing: I felt like it was TOO quick. They go from Mario ending up in the Mushroom Kingdom and he finds Toad with barely an introduction and they rush to the castle. Then Mario finds Peach who just so happens to be going to the same place at the right time. There wasn’t enough time to breathe and there could’ve been so many good character interactions and development if they made it longer. We could have had more of Bowser and Luigi, Mario and Toad and Peach. I mean there are lots of characters and they have yet to introduce Yoshi, the Koopalings, and Daisy so hopefully it will be better in the second.
Illumination: I’m not too crazy with this studio. I love Despicable Me 1&2 but the rest are just meh. There were moments in the movie that were just so like this studio that it somewhat felt weird. The plumbing scene was funny but I think that is a good example. The whole thing with the dog being malicious was an Illumination thing. So were some of the models of the humans. The songs. Idk. If this movie was made by another studio like Dreamworks or Sony, maybe it would’ve been better??
Overall, I’d give this movie a 7.5/10. It had great moments and a lot going for it but there is still room for improvement. And that’s completely okay because we still have another movie. We only saw these characters on screen for ONE movie so there’s still more to be seen. I say fuck the critics, they don’t know what they’re talking about. This movie didn’t need to be woke or whatever. It almost didn’t need a plot. This movie was such a beautiful love letter to all of the Nintendo fans and I was smiling the entire time. They knew not to make it flop because of how iconic and beloved Mario is. I felt like a little kid again as I watched my favorite video game characters on screen and now I feel the need to play my Wii or switch. I look forward to seeing what they do in the next film.
TLDR: go see it. It’s a lot of fun
Also LET ME VOICE YOSHI I CAN DO HIS VOICE. IM GOING TO BE ON A TEACHER’S SALARY IM GONNA BE BROKE

Scenario, Time and Idol!Reader are sitting outside on a balcony, watching the stars. The party was still going on behind them, but all they see or hear was eachother. They talk about various thing, but when Idol!Reader looks away and toward the stars, humming a familar song (Saria's song or something else), and Time pulls out his Kokiri ocarina, the one Saria gave him, and plays along...
I’ve been thinking about what songs does time know that others don’t. Song of Time maybe… song of Healing tho. Saira’s song is also a good pick but if we are going with the forest theme Minuet of Forest is also one that only Time would know.
I was going with unknown ones because while its iconic for OoT, lets say they were in Warrior’s Era, I am pretty sure some songs would stick around because of the other travelers. Even the Ballad of the Windfish would be know.

if you get this, answer w/ three random facts about yourself and send it to the last seven blogs in your notifs. anon or not, doesn’t matter, let’s get to know the person behind the blog! (sorry if you already got this!)
Sorry it took a bit to answer anon. College and work have been killing me these past few days^^;
01 - I speak five languages (German, French, English, Japanese and Korean) at varying levels of proficiency. I actually had my Korean final yesterday and I'd say it went pretty well 👀 Also I learned Italian for a while, though I only remember some basic phrases, how to say one idiom & how to flirt
02 - Ever since the Sins of Flesh update I've been SO obsessed with Cult of the Lamb again. These past few days the game icon just kept staring into my soul while I was trying my best to stay strong and focus on studying Speaking of being obsessed over games, once the new Professor Layton game releases I'm going to be SO annoying. Those games were my childhood :)
03 - When planning out a story, I have the habit of writing the plot details out on flashcards and putting them up on my walls. I get embarrassed over it whenever someone other than a select group of friends come over though, so when someone else visits I usually end up taking them down only to hang them back up once that person is gone lol
Bonus fact!
This one is probably going to MASSIVELY wrap everyone's view of me, but I feel like half of the more creative school work I submitted ended up being fandom related:
In eighth grade, we were supposed to write a two page long story about a murder case, and I just made it a Professor Layton x Phoenix Wright crossover. I even took one of the cases from Phoenix Wright as the base for my story, and I only barely changed the names, so you could EASILY tell that it was fanfiction
I got my English teacher to watch Assassination Classroom because we had to give a 3 minute presentation on something we liked. That's the same teacher that made one of his tests entirely about Batman btw, he was great <3 I also got my math teacher to watch the anime AND read the manga because I asked him about one math problems from it that I just didn't get. He wrote down the solution and literally programmed a little something to help me better understand how to get there. Another great teacher <3
Had to write a three-word story (you're given three words as prompts and have to built a short story around them), except one of the words was "chinchilla". I ended up writing about a "killer chinchilla" which is just the nickname my sister gave Minccino
I once ended up the state winner in a nation-wide art competition with a Pokémon ORAS-themed watercolor drawing I did (that piece was graded, so I'm counting it toward school work)
We were tasked with drawing a picture inspired by a song. I took My Hero Academia's first ED and made the drawing itself about My Hero Academia as well. Burnt through way too many pencils for this one. They hung it right next to the teachers' room, idk if it's still there tho
That same year we were also tasked with "building a creative trash can", and so I decided to make a little Korok that collects paper waste in a little bag. I also learned how to sew in order to make the bag, so that's cool (pic below!)
I somehow convinced my teacher to let me write my seminar paper on My Hero Academia
In elementary school, my friend group came up with a play set in Animal Crossing, and I ended up writing the entire thing (as in literally writing it so that you could act it out in Animal Crossing itself). That wasn't school work by any means, but regardless, I still very much did print it out just so I could give it to my homeroom teacher, so there's that
Also not school work, but once again in seventh grade I wrote an Animal Crossing New Leaf fanficiton (???) where you could vote what would happen next on the end of every chapter. A good portion of my class read it and I also made my PE teacher read the first chapter
That's by far not all of it but those were the first few things that popped into mind. Anyway, here's the pic of my little Korok paper waste collector!

hi i want punk recs! currently literally the only two things i consisently listen to are my chemical romance and joy division. my previous attempts of getting into punk have been thwarted by the fact that i dont like overtly political lyrics? like im ok with political music i just prefer the lyrics to be a bit more.. metaphorical about it. if thats too much to ask tho feel free to dunk on me
Mcr and joy division are sick as fuck good choices
Punk is by nature a more political genre and so finding bands that don’t discuss politics in their lyrics is uncommon, but I understand the search for something less blunt at times.
For recommendations, I would start with emo-adjacent bands a la my chemical romance. Here are some off the top of my head:
Senses Fail - one of the first punk bands I’ve gotten into, and still one of my favorites. Their sound ranges from post-hardcore to emo to pop punk to metal-ish. If you don’t know those genres that’s fine, they just have a LOT of variety in their songs. Lyrics can occasionally be political but can also be concept albums like mcr, or deal with mental illness, being queer, personal stuff, etc. highly recommended
AFI - their old stuff is more purist punk but their more recent material is more emo/alt rock even. Another very diverse sounding band that’s highly recommended.
Pinkshift - one of the best new bands to the scene, a huge favorite. They’re supported by anti-flag, so you know they’re legit. Only one full album right now and it’s full of bangers.
Alkaline Trio - a more gothic punk act that, they have a very large discography so there’s likely something to love! Radio is perhaps one of the most iconic breakup songs.
The interrupters - punk infused with a bit of ska, very fun and catchy songs, some songs are more political but others are about punk community and overcoming hurdles in life.
Jawbreaker - one of the most iconic acts, one of the big inspirations for the emo scene, too. Community heavily divided one what is their best album but I think they’re all fantastic.
Misfits - shocked I didn’t think of this one sooner, as they’re a huge influences on my Chem. Horror punk that has some, uh, I suppose ‘problematic’ themes at time but is a classic for good reason (like most horror).
I think those are some good starting points… I hope they at least set you in the right direction!

Muppet Other Girls
youtube
Basically who would I cast each Muppet as in a hypothetical Muppets production of the musical Other Girls (what is other girls? see above video)
Lillly MacPherson-Hess - Miss Piggy this isn't just because miss piggy is the most iconic female muppet/the muppet in pink but bc miss piggy would be able to embody all the cattiness and quiet rage lillly displays. also yeah i know miss piggy is kind of known for romance and lillly is aromantic but y'know she has the range she could do it trust me. miss piggy is the most performative muppet and literally everything about lillly is super performative
Hunter St. James - Fozzie Bear but jessamine! what about kermit? he's miss piggy's other half and also the most iconic green muppet! yes i know. however. kermit is the voice of reason in the muppet show and while hunter does display very much emotional intelligence and holds the group together, fozzie bear is far more able to embody the many silly goose moments of hunter street james. plus kermit would be the one trying to reign miss piggy in most of the time, while i can absolutely see miss piggy and fozzie getting on each others' nerves as much as hunter and lillly do in the beginning while still making a great pair.
Juniper Gould - Gonzo i think this is probably the most confident i am in any of my muppet castings. i mean just look at them. perpetually anxious yet somehow one of the most daring characters, very confused about their place in the group, gender-whatever swag. as much as i wanted gonzo to be aubrey bc purple and nonbinary-coded, let's face the facts juno is DEFINITELY the gonzo of the group
Aubrey Aubergine - I honestly don't know??? guys help me out here i can't come up with a muppet for aubrey even tho i know ze's definitely not a human performer. rn my ideas are animal (full of energy, musician, also kinda gender ambiguous) or rizzo the rat (weirdo icon, gets paired up with gonzo quite a bit). my producer votes rizzo the rat but i feel like there must be a better muppet for aubrey to be.
Iris - Human Performer iris is NOT a muppet. this is done in order to make iris feel more immediately out-of-place and also so that the whole lillly/iris scene at the end is "man or muppet" from the muppets (2011).
The Weird Girl Club - Fraggle Rock I would cast Cady/Dinosaur Facts individually but just in general every member of the weird girl club is a fraggle, you can decide which one. when the characters go into the basement of cvs harmacy they go down that tunnel from the opening of the fraggle rock theme song and then there's hundreds of fraggles staring at them.
Specs - Scooter glasses
Grace - Annie Sue lesser known female muppet who miss piggy has a one-sided rivalry with, just generally very sweet if a little ditsy
Mateo - Human Performer mateo is the second human performer cameo in muppet other girls just bc of the comedy that comes from this very down-to-earth gay dude having a bunch of muppets show up in his gift shop and then decide to go out with fozzie bear
now, you may be thinking but jessamine! where's kermit? you can't do a muppets adaptation without having kermit be a prominent role!
well, you see dear reader - muppets other girls would be a show within a show, as so many muppet productions are. unlike the actual version of other girls, some of our behind the scenes crew would be featured as characters, including my producer stephanie as kermit (trying to hold the show together) and me as walter from the muppets 2011 (earnestly excited kid putting on a show for the first time). i would list more but y'all don't know them
anyway feel free to disagree bc i'd love to hear your opinions as well!!

popopopopopop
compliation of some interesting music I found
Kai:
in the first piece, "Family Picture day" A small motif plays at the beginning a lil mournful and sad, in the show this plays in s7 when Nya and Kai find the picture of their parents
this motif plays in "Kai vs Father" in the show when Kai fights Ray, the motif plays when Ray realizes that Kai is his son. So I thought it was a theme for family, either lost or when they are found
But in the third song, "No Ordinary Blacksmith," this motif also plays in March of the Oni when Kai reforges the golden weapons, when in grief for Cole yet probably trying to live up to his dad's skill. SO I kinda wanna mark the motif down as mostly for Kai and his relationship with family/grief.
Cole:
Cole really only gets season 13, but in "Cole visits Lily" We are introduced to Lily and a light melody, which is at the very start of, "Unlocking Spinjitzu Burst" When Cole lives up to his promise to his mom. Very sweet and it makes me wanna cry
Zane:
Zane's is very popular and the melody in unlocking his true potential and accepting who he is is the most popular motif in the whole show
Nya:
I could only find a compilation for some of the songs so I included it, my favorites are "Reversing the Flow," and, "Nya's True Potential," and I believe both of these can be heard in, "Nya Becomes Water," Which makes sense as its her reaching her max in her powers (still wanna sob tho)
Lloyd & Garmadon:
These two have similar themes and motifs so I interchanged their songs. "Temple of Light" being Lloyds most iconic theme in my opinion, and "A family divided" being a Garmadon theme. In my opinion Garms theme is not very good and changes a lot and goes on for awhile, but I assume its like this because of the show itself.
and of course I had to put in, "The resistance never quits" and "I can resist you" show casing the divide between the two with how much they oppose each other. Their songs before intertwined with the green ninja theme, but now their songs are dramatic and sound as if they are fighting
Jay:
I could not find anything for Jay >:/
I could only find a Nadakhan theme for s6, and a bunch of prime empire really isn't jay character focused

hello! its paper. been a while hasnt it? i keep meaning to send an ask just to say "hi! im still here!" but i keep forgetting. so i figured id send one now! i do have a sort of question tho. i havent been too aware of your recent interests but the newest one, team starkid i think it is, does seem cool. theyre like musicals right? so im asking if theres like a specific one i should start with first or if i can just go to whatever basically. bonus points for summaries of the plots :]
PAPER ANONNNN ITS BEEN SO LONG ITS NICE TO SEE U AGAIN!!!!!!! hope ur well!!! u caught me at the perfect time actually i am in the exact mood to activate Infodump Attack
SO !! team starkid !! they r a group who writes & performs original musicals. these range from parodies like Twisted (Aladdin, but from Jafar's POV) to the thing theyre most known for- the Hatchetfield universe
Hatchetfield is the name of a town on a fictional island in Lake Michigan in which this series/these musicals take place. Within the Hatchetfield universe there is TGWDLM, Black Friday, and Nightmare Time. Everything in the Hatchetfield universe is best described as horror comedy, and it does get quite dark at times.
TGWDLM (which stands for The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals) is where I would recommend you start. It's the easiest for a new Starkid viewer to understand, is almost entirely self-contained (bonus lore from other content is FUN but not at all NEEDED or important to understanding anything). It tells the story of Paul, the titular Guy Who Doesn't Like Musicals, and what happens to him when a meteor crashes into Hatchetfield and causes everyone to start singing and dancing! I would honestly recommend it anyways just because it's a really fun watch regardless. Warnings: guns, character death, [fake] blood & guts, body horror, mind control. Also, a song near the beginning has very explicit (sexual) lyrics.
Black Friday is best viewed as a sequel to TGWDLM. It gets a little more into the lore and sets up more of the overarching world. I honestly like Black Friday better than TGWDLM, but it is also even darker & more lore-heavy. Also it can be confusing on your first watch. It follows various citizens trying to buy a new toy called a Wiggly for Christmas, and the subsequent events that causes. Warnings: death, [fake] blood (not a ton! Less than TGWDLM), what could easily be seen as mob mentalities/near mind control, guns, what could be seen as stalking/hunting people.
Nightmare Time is best seen as a series of podcasts/seperate "episodes." You can listen to just the audio if you want, you won't miss anything important (although the actors are AMAZING so I would definitely say watching it is worth it). There are two seasons, which have 3-4 episodes each. They elaborate a LOT on the lore/world of Hatchetfield. If you need individual tws, they should be in the video descs. I will warn you the Hatchetfield series is very dark. I love it and it is a LOT of fun though! Latte Hatte is the #4 cause of my homosexuality (/silly). also nb rep that i as a nb person very much enjoy!! also more of lauren lopez being iconic. also a KILLER theme song.
Also recommended outside of Hatchetfield are Trail to Oregon & Firebringer. I personally don't love the amount of toilet humor in Trail to Oregon, but it's still a fun musical and the acting is phenomenal as always. Firebringer has iconic songs, a HILARIOUS narrator character, leabians, and Lauren Lopez as the lead. there is literally nothing more you could ask for. it's perfect. Gods I love Lauren Lopez she's so iconic.

Very biased ranking of all of the Fairy Tail Openings from best to worst
The order in which I'm ranking them takes into account my subjective taste, the level of replayability, sometimes also the animation that is going on during the opening sequence and just whatever comes to mind, feel free to fight me in the comments but this is my blog so i say I'm right. Mild disclaimer, I have not ever gotten past the middle or so of the second anime series, so I watched the later ops on youtube to rank them, but their places may be subject to change once I fully experience them when I get to those seasons.
This one is long so it goes under the cut for y'all
Strike Back (OP 16)
I AM RIGHT DON'T @ ME. THIS SHOULD'VE BEEN THE FIRST OP FOR THE FIRST RETURN OF FT. THIS SHIT FIRES ME UP. I CAN LISTEN TO IT OVER AND OVER, I WILL YELL SING AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME. BACK-ON KNOWS WHAT'S UP (<<<watched murder princess and got obsessed with the OP also made by back-on)
Snow Fairy (OP 1)
ICONIC. A CLASSIC. POINTS FOR BEING THE FIRST OP AND MAKING ME NOSTALGIC BUT ALSO THE PICTURE OF NATSU HUGGING IGNEEL AT THE END I- 🥺🥺🥺 In conclusion, really amazing first opening for the series
Towa no Kizuna (OP 9)
This fucker slaps SO HARD. It HYPES ME UP. And the visuals are spot on. I would rave to this.
Ft. (OP 3)
Amazing OP it's the reason why I became interested in Funkist. It fits Natsu perfectly even if this is an erza centric arc. Looking at the lyrics though, it still goes along with the theme of "we're here to support you" that Erza has going on. My only gripe is that when listening to the short version that plays every episode you can't appreciate how good the latter bridge is
Yakusoku no Hi e (OP 14)
For the last opening of first series, it's very good. I know most of the lyrics and i will belt out to it.
Ashita wo Narase (OP 22)
ok I'd never listened to this one but I dig it??? very interesting vibes, not what i expected from ft and especially from the zero arc, it slaps
Never-End Tale (OP 20)
Almost iconic. I think it lacks a little bit of strength, mostly due to the animated sequence, but it would've been an excellent season-ending OP. I do prefer listening to the full version, it has what's missing from the TV version. It also gets points for showing my wife in demon form <3
Tenohira (OP 12)
I do not like the Key of the Starry Sky arc, but the opening? Very nice, love me some 2000s soft rock
Egao no Mahou (OP 5)
It's pretty decent, i feel there's a lot of emotion in the singer's voice and I love to see Wendy introduced.
Believe in Myself (OP 21)
Very solid OP, not much to say though since it came out around the time I had quit the anime, but is definitely in the better part of OPs. I like the focus on Gray and Natsu during the sequence.
Yumeiro Graffiti (OP 19)
It's fine but nothing out of the ordinary. Replayable for a while. Sidenote, I think this one has a bit of a spoiler in the animated sequence, cause lucy is staring melancholically at Aquarius' key but an anime-only fan wouldn't know that it gets broken.
No-Limit (OP 25)
Interesting beginning??? idk how I feel about it but it's another solid op with a great sequence, I might end up really liking it when I get to this point
Evidence (OP 7)
I enjoy the piano and the first few verses are good, but I feel it doesn't have as much impact and it could do more. Very skippable. The animated sequence and the audio sync up very nicely tho.
Masayume chasing (OP 15)
I like it but not for extended periods of time and I do not think it serves the purpose of making the series return with a bang. Besides, there's something about this song that I find kind of…odd? like maybe it's because of the particular type of pop it is but idk, feels like this was a song that already existed and they just decided "yes, let's put it in this anime"
Sense of wonder (OP 2)
It's fine, but not that special in my opinion, I cannot listen to it over and over with each episode bc it does start getting tedious fast. However, I do think it helps represent the whimsy of the first few arcs when Fiore is supposed to still be new and "wonderful" for us. It also does serves its purpose of showing some of team Natsu's background in the opening sequence.
RPG (OP 4)
I get tired of listening to it very fast. It was ranked lower but then I listened to all the OPs and realized it's ok. Another mid OP. Also, I don't really understand why it's titled "Rocking Playin Game" and I need to know the reason behind that decision.
More than Like (OP 26)
I've mixed feelings about it, the combination of softer music with stronger rock parts doesn't mix particularly well in some parts, but is not bad and it's definitely better than some others. However, I don't think it lives up to what I would expect from the last OP.
I wish (OP 10)
It's…meh. I feel it is trying to energize people but failing miserably, perhaps the issue is the low volume. Can only listen to it a few times before skipping it.
Power of the Dream (OP 23)
First OP of the final season and it's not bad but I don't feel the impact it should have. The sequence is excellent. It unfortunately suffers from THAT ONE REPEATED BEAT THAT WAS USED IN ALMOST EVERY FUCKING SONG DURING 2016
Down by Law (OP 24)
Lame and boring. When I get to that season I will most likely listen to it once and then skip it. The animated sequence is soooo good tho, how dare they
Mysterious Magic (OP 17)
Very generic, even the animation sequence feels generic and like it doesn't encompass the arc like other OPs did beforehand, makes sense tho cause it was for the corrupted celestial spirits filler arc which is the shittiest
Fiesta (OP 6)
Boring like the other Plus+ opening but I do like the chorus, however I cannot listen to it more than a few times. Also, considering that the second half of the O6 arc is a little more serious since all the shit is going down, i don't think the upbeat music is that suited for it
Break through (OP 13)
Similar opinion than with fiesta, it has some good bits and some meh bits, doesn't manage to be outstanding
Hajimari no Sora (OP 11)
I do not like +Plus, at least not enough to listen to a song repeatedly, but this song? This song SUCKS, just boring ass cords that go on forever, at least the Fiesta op has some spice going on for it
Rock City Boy (OP 9)
It sucks it's lame, I HATE the attempted rap. It's trying a certain style and it does not work, I cannot listen to it more than once.
Break Out (OP 18)
This one is soooo boring that I had forgotten it existed, I even misremembered the sequences as being part of the 17th OP. It tries to pick up pace in the chorus but it doesn't work. I was gonna put rock city boy as the worst but yknow what? this one fucking takes the last spot
Final thoughts:
FT has a bunch of meh OPs :/ I'm not saying they're all bad, but the "I want to yell-sing this song" factor is not present in a lot of them.

have you every watched voltron or she-ra? if not, highly rec!! she-ra's amazing ( in my humble opinion ) voltron is uhh the start was great bUT GIANT ROBOT CATS THAT TURN INTO A GIANT ROBOT HUMAN
hi anon- i’ve watched both, actually, though not all the way through- thoughts below the cut just because i can feel this will be long despite my best efforts. def agree on voltron but cannot say i think shera is great haha
let’s start w voltron bc it’s the og. i watched it when it was first coming out and yeah- received w great enthusiasm. keith, unsurprisingly, was my guy. allura was probably my second favourite character. love the space lion robots of it all. really enjoyed the alien fantasy drama. was extremely on-board with unlikely teammates saving the galaxy and secret galra heritage and shiro’s war ptsd and all that. i think the early seasons had a good balance of drama and comedy, too.
definitely went downhill fast, and i didn’t watch past the season where lotor first starts playing a big role in the show, in part because i could Feel the bad prince zuko arc they were going to do and absolutely did not have the time for it (cannot believe they had him and allura be a thing…. and then she dies at the end of the show). basically just got frustrated by the way the characters were handled after a certain point, the tone was a mixed bag and the plot got messy. i was lucky bc keith was one of the people who got the most consistent/thorough focus and development, but the sidelining of certain charas and the weird dvp of others was just annoying. plus the ‘funny’ episodes… no. love shiro getting gay married tho good for him #lovewins.
shera…. hm. to give it some credit: i do enjoy the silly retro cartoon energy of it (the Names!!), i think the core 3’s friendship is good throughout, and naturally i think adora and catra’s relationship is compelling, fucked up and endearing. also there were def points where (like w voltron) the smaller-scale conflicts were pretty engaging to me, esp in the way they managed to overlap them w personal struggles- adora vs the horde, glimmer’s family drama… and mermista is an icon throughout love her energy.
now for my overview of the show… season one was promising for me but the like Positivity of it all just doesn’t speak to me- it’s Very power of friendship sparkles somehow. yeah theres darkness but i feel like it always gets mishandled. the villains in shera are sooo inconsistently framed as big menacing evil or harmless funny guys & i hate it- for eg why set up shadowweaver as this military evil child abuser for the early seasons and then make her a snarky teammate by the end?? it has ambitions of doing moral greyness but it’s mostly just badly executed for me… and that extends to catra fyi, for as much as i love her. shes easily my fav character but shes not very well-written. let’s not even start on hordak and his whole mess of a plot.
on that note both shows have a weird relationship w their genocide plots also. if you want to have genocide in your fun lil show you still need to take it seriously and there are ways to do it- think of avatar or of full metal alchemist, idk. making the big bad someone who wipes out planets and civilisations to raise stakes without ever considering the ramifications / while giving them easy redemption arcs is so lazy.
both theme songs absolutely slap though.

Attack on Titan - Season 2 A "This Opening Theme Deserves Awards" Commentary (*full manga spoilers)
-ooh i like the op -sasha, my loveliest sasha <3 -connie just found the ~titan on top of his house~ and i'm like tearing up here -through all we've been through, the one person i never forgave is zeke. i just cannot with zeke. which is silly, everyone's drowning in blood, and yet. -nanaba is an icon, just sayin -ymir's transformation scene gave me goosebumps -the scenes between ymir and historia are so good and emotional -low-key love the ending song bc it's so random compared to what comes before. usually the eps end like RAWR ARGH ARGH KYAAAA RAAAAH and then you just sort of melt into swaying along with the ending song and chill. -i still can't get over reiner's 'btw we're the titans,' it's so good -hannes to mikasa and armin: "it's always been your guys' job to clean up after that moron's [eren's] messes, right?" truer words have never been spoken -seriously will any op slap as hard as the s2 op, i love this song -ay ay ay, eren's speech at reiner on how he's neither a soldier nor a warrior but a mass murderer that killed innocents and that he isn't even human anymore… ay ay ay. a) you'll come to understand, love, and b) …right back at you. -you know, technically i could think of many ops that are visually more stunning than this, but if i had to give one the top spot, it would still be this one. it just fires you up, man -seriously tho, the music, the voice acting, the animation, they've elevated ymir so much -man, they killed it, the dina-eren-mikasa moment, they killed it, this entire episode is SO. GOOD, it goes SO HARD -jean to eren: "but i think it's up to you to decide whether our comrades died in vain or not." ehehe, eren's villain origin story part 2 (/joke). -dude they cooked in the last ep, it was so good???

Cruella Hongjoong is God Tier Hongjoong. All hail Hongruella~!! The little ponytail was amazing. Probably the most iconic of all the HJ styles!
Waterbomb was A LOT to process. I am also not their strongest soldier! I was not only wounded by all the footage and photos, I was nearly fatally wounded. Choi San? Deadly. 💀😂
Oh my godddd! Those Woosan photocards?? They are SO cute. Ahhhhhhhh. I can't handle it. The ears? Wow. I totally get it, I would also want to take them everywhere.
This is probably because I had no internet for 10 days straight, but I had a dream about Mingi last week? I'm a vivid, lucid dreamer anyway.... but I touched his arms and istg it was the realest thing I've ever felt in a dream?? And then, when I woke up, I was thinking about it and I think it's kinda rare that I actually touch people in my dreams. It's happened, but not that often. And that made me curious about dreaming and dreams in general. What a strange, interesting thing it is, to be able to dream when we sleep. ☁️💤 /dream tangent
Let's see... some Ateez things that have caught my attention over the last fews days....
✨Yunho dressing up as Saiki for Mingi's birthday? ADORABLE. INCREDIBLE. AMAZING. FRIENDSHIP GOALS. I'm loving this whole 'dress up as a character they love' trend that's happening on the members' birthdays. I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens for Jongho. I literally have no idea what character it might be.
✨Mingi released his song?? I'm SO in love with it?? Ahhh, the talent!! It makes me feel SO much. It's sad but beautiful. 10/10. What a king. 👑🐺🐣
✨The clip of Mingi talking to a fan, asking her to show him the back of her 'Mingi' sign, only to discover it says 'Yunho'. The way he says 'ahhhh, it's okay, it's okay' ... it's so soft?? Heart? Melted.
✨San being so offended/upset on that show where they were discussing a husband selling all of his wife's merch without her knowing? I LOVE HIM SO MUCH FOR THAT. And he was right! The husband should get it all back, even if he has to beg. The actual audacity of that man. I would literally divorce him. 😑
✨Oh, and the YT live they did together! Wooyoung talking about the pregnant fan and San's expression in the back?? Hello?? He's too cute. ☺️💗
✨Also, Yunho witnessing SH basically caressing (????) HJ's hand in the same YT live?? Will Yunho EVER catch a break?? It's not looking likely. He must have witnessed so much. I feel like we've barely scratched the surface on the things he's seen.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
✨Talking of Yunho... he really looks like Mingi in that T-pain dance insta he did with Wooyoung?? Just his outfit and the way his body moves... it's crazy.
Tumblr media
Also on insta... The dinosaur/nyahhhh video of Hwa, Joong, San, and Jongho?? It makes me laugh so much every time I see it. We are blessed by these fools~!😂✨🦖
*hums the Jurassic Park theme tune*
Tumblr media
On a slightly negative note. I wish they'd do more YT lives and less short videos on their app? Like come onnnnn. I miss Seonghwa's hour long lives of him just chatting. KQ are becoming monsters of capitalism. Let me have my silly men for free. Don't make me fight you.... 😩
Tumblr media
Random but whenever I glance back over the previous ask to see what all I said/you’re responding to I realize that I make such an embarrassing amount of typos that I don’t catch. 🤣
Anyways, yess I love those cat ear pcs; I ended up adding San’s to one of the photo card holders that I keep on my bag.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That sounds like the absolute wildest dream! I almost never dream about idols either, the random one esp from back when I was writing fanfic still, they’d crop up here and there, but not often. That sounds insane. Those sort of super realistic dreams can be wild and so unsettling, so it’s a good thing this one wasn’t lol
✧ Mingi’s song was so pretty - what is this trend of super sappy/sad sounding birthday songs tho??? Please guys, getting older is not the end of the world V_V lmao
✧ I haven’t seen that clip of Mingi with the fan! But that’s so sweet, he is so soft for Yunho. During the zombie game this most recent wanteez they were adorable too.
✧ And that show was hilarious - San and Hongjoong were so delightful with them. I cracked up at the beginning when they brought up the period question and both their faces just O.O — good boys but still boys in the end 😂 (I appreciated the polite “we’re not qualified to speak on that” comment - rather than being grossed out, they knew they’d be entirely out of their element which was cute). San was so into these situations too, it was fun to watch him get so passionate about them.
✧ Yunho has had enough of this queer shit, someone give him a vacation far away from his group 😭 - I mean he’s just as bad but I’m sure he doesn’t see it that way. (Also yeah that TikTok he did with Wooyoung is going to be my new sleep paralysis demon - but yeah no you are 100% not the only one that thought that was Wooyo and Mingi; I watched it twice through before I realized the jaw was wrong for Mingi…. I think he raided his closet for the video though lol
✧ I am 100% sure that they convinced Jongho to do the dinosaur video by promising him an all you can eat meal, or his dorm to himself for a weekend - sleep or food, the ultimate motivators. (Either that or he lost a very massive bet).
✧ Ahh the TokToq situation. Like, okay I get the point of the one on one ability and all that, but they really need to make it more easily accessible. Do like maybe some for members only (and make those ones covered by the membership people pay for) and then do others for everyone, if they want their own app. Also please please for the love of god fix the translation problems. And make them not disappearing. It really needs a lot of work and unfortunately I think considering every other sms app like this is getting absorbed by the Langolier that is HYBE rn it’s just not a smart move to do - esp when YT and IG are already super accessible and everyone likes them. Hell even TikTok lives if they must. It’s just frustrating considering they could do so much more if they weren’t tying themselves to capitalistic gain (KQ, fans will spend money, I promise, put out more merch, more international fanmeets - you don’t need the 5-10 bucks that this app will gain you, I promise you can make more if you just promote your international group internationally.
✧ On a happier note tho I got my membership kit! The last group I bothered buying a membership for was bts and it took BigHit literally 11 to 13 months to bother sending it to me. And considering how small KQ is, I expected the same and wasn’t too worried about it - so when it showed up at my door on Friday I was so delighted. The tarot style cards are so cute. I decided to pull out 22 and sleeve them to use as an actual major arcana readings deck (some conversions ofc - like The Emperor is now The Sea King, Death is now The Wolf, The Devil is now Desire, etc) - I’m waiting on the sleeves to come now. I was so happy to see that they put the little fortune telling answer book in both english and korean, and it’s such a nice cute little size. I don’t want to give too many spoilers if you’ve not gotten yours yet/don’t want spoilers but it’s so nice.
✧Oh! Speaking of tarot I learned they’re making a Good Omens tarot deck, it’s coming out end of November. I preordered it, call it an xmas gift lol - I love Good Omens, it’s by far one of my favorite novels of all time and I adore the show (David Tennant has always been a favorite actor and he’s such a good person, and Michael Sheen is so sweet… Ironically rn my kid is watching Dr Who for the first time with me and we just finished Tennant’s arc, he was so upset when he regenerated - I felt bad but also… a whole mood kid, 10 is my Doctor).
And! On the tarot path, so my friend and I were joking around when I was trying to figure out how to convert Ateez’s deck to a proper tarot deck, and we joked that I have enough idols now that I could make a whole kpop deck and now I can’t get the idea out of my damn mind 🤣
Tumblr media
Also I found this photo a few days ago and may have had a stroke and I simply cannot stop staring at it lol

hiiii i'm mage (tho feel free to call me whatever you want i love hoarding names), this is my fall out boy sideblog so my main followers won't be spammed by me. i’m 24 and firmly a post hiatus girly. use whatever pronouns you want like literally any of them but just know i like more feminine terms as nicknames. more under the cut so this pinned isn’t a mile long.
i’m engaged! so i don't really thirst post that often? saying someone is attractive ≠ thirst posting but even that i won’t do often.
i’m fairly new, i’ve been Cognizant of this band since i was a kid and always liked the songs i heard but never dug deeper from their massive radio hits until the release hype of SM(F)S came around and my brain decided to latch onto it like velcro.
fave records are basically all the post hiatus records but SRAR and AB/AP hold special places in my heart.
saying that, i am… not kind to pre hiatus records. it's mostly a bit tho (dance dance my beloved, FOLIE MY BELOVED).
fave songs are very basic bitch choices but currently my favorites are the phoenix (can ya tell?), uma thurman, last of the real ones, and what a time to be alive. shout out to immortals, too. they put that shit in a disney movie.
i WILL defend centuries actually. she's famous to ME.
stump girlie (i genuinely want my singing voice to have the range/style of his).
beyond fob, i love tokusatsu and ffxiv! that’s what my main blog is for (mageshine-dance).
saying that, the girl in my icon/header is my ffxiv oc, ahrora! her fake anime op is the phoenix so it’s still fob themed in my heart. if you ask me about her i'll happily talk about her. for hours on end, with little regards for story spoilers, so ask at your own risk.
NOT an rpf person but i love friendship so if you see me rb anything that could be rpf flavored, it’s not that! basically what i'm saying here is that if you see pete/rick flavored posts i'm only seeing it through an “ough friendship” light.
saying that, pete/key truthers dni IT'S BEEN ALMOST 20 YEARS SINCE 2005 HE'S OVER IT AND YOU SHOULD BE TOO.
i believe that's everything! nice to meet you! :3

Rewatching the OC
I decided to rewatch through the OC and here are some thoughts I had on S1E1:
Love how the first scene the just had "CHINO" spray panted across a wall behind the actors to show that they were in Chino. Think that's funny.
How did that cop know that they were stealing that car? They drove by after the window had been smashed and it would have just looked like a guy standing next to a car since it was kinda dark. Also where did the other two cop cars come from so quickly???
How is Trey (the older brother) only looking at 3-5 years for 1) stealing a car 2) crashing said car 3) having a gun in his pants while stealing said car 4) having pot in his jacket while stealing said car and 5) having multiple priors??? Like sure he's white but this was a poor area and he had multiple priors. Would have thought more like 10-15 for a "light" sentence. Maybe I just don't know the avg. sentences for this stuff.
Also I feel like there's a better way to steal an old car like that other than just smashing in the window. He was begging to get caught.
Ryan says social security is theorized to run out by 2025... is that true? I need to do some research on that...
Also, love how the writers went "we'll make him really smart and we'll show that by him saying the same edgelord type of 'nothing matters, society sucks' philosophy we find online from other teenagers! Perfect!"
Sandy telling a kid he just met that he's stupid and weak feels a little weird but maybe that's because I know these characters
We are only 3 mins in... yikes.
Love the early 2000s mens wardrobe. Ryan's hoodie and leather jacket slays. And his slutty little almost choker necklace? Bring that fashion style back, please men I'm begging you.
Oh good. Mom's exposition time is here to tell us his dad's also in jail.
We finally reached the theme song and I am so grateful for it. This song slaps so hard. Top tier 2000s teen show intro.
Malewife Sandy with his wife being the primary breadwinner. Iconic, esp for the time.
Ryan and I smoke the same brand of cigarettes. Fun fact.
"Who are you?" "Whoever you want me to be?" SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP
He had a lighter, why not just light her cigarette normally. Rizz is through the roof.
He's trying so hard to look tough, its so funny.
Love Sandy. He's so funny. His facial expressions are great.
His white wifebeater tanktop is so iconic. I bought one when I first saw the show because I loved his outfits despite the fact that I was (and still am) a chick.
Seth is also so funny.
But the fact that he named his boat after a chick he's never spoken to before is wild. Makes sense for a teenage boy though.
Sandy's so good to Ryan. The tie scene is so sweet.
I forgot everyone thinks Ryan's from different places.
How is Marissa gonna say she doesn't know if Ryan is a cousin or a poolboy when she was the once who decided he was the cousin???
Ryan is so unbothered it's funny. Some dude's sobbing in the bathroom. Not his problem.
The All American Rejects song really adds to the time period of this show.
This show really did not prepare me for what high school parties would be like. Maybe I just didn't grow up in the right tax bracket.
I did have to skip the part where Seth yells at him at the party. It kinda hurts to watch. A necessary evil tho.
I am sad Ryan got his ass handed to him but to be fair it was like 5 vs 1.5 (Seth only half counts)
L friends leaving marissa passed out on her back on her back porch. Take her back with yall. Damn.
Ryan is so lucky no one was out to see him carrying a passed out girl to his bed. Also how did she grab around him if she's so passed out??? Whatever.
"He has a family Sandy. It's not up to you to decide if they're good enough." Except he didn't? Ryan literally called him asking for help because his mom kicked him out and her boyfriend beat him up. Sandy didn't decide shit. L wife.
The breakfast scene is so funny. Just the way the wife (idk her name) was put in the position to immediately feel bad about kicking him out as he pulls like a kicked puppy act. Comedy gold.
Seth PUT THOSE CONCRETE GRIPPERS AWAY
Seth and Ryan's friendship is so cute. He met this dude like 24 hours ago and he wants to go visit him in Chino. Adorable, we love positive male bonding here.
Good news, Marissa survived. And she didn't even look hungover. Good for her. I mean other than the douche-y boyfriend.
Thank goodness Sandy stuck around after dropping Ryan off because there's no way that boy would have called him for help again. He would have just tried to figure it out. Bless his heart.
This show slaps so hard, can't wait to finish rewatching it because high key I don't think I ever actually finished it the first time.
