#fluff binges !!! #(my god the past few days have been Absolutely Awful I need to unwind anyhow sdkjfsndfs back to the comfort series) #there's something so poetic in how Hamber assumes this mentor/grandfather-like role to Amethio #while at the same time we're seeing Diana and Liko's bond at the forefront throughout the ep #the parallels between them....... Hamber actively encouraging that thirst for power while Diana praises Liko's continuous growth........... #Hamber's even amazed at Amethio 'playing dirty' in battles for once #Amethio's always been so by-the-books when it came to battling and even honorable in a sense by always striving for fairness- #-between him and Friede (insisting on one-on-one even when he has two mons on hand etc.) #BUT NOW Hamber wants to see more of that sinister corrupted side to that want for power and it's like ooouUUH........ OOOUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHH #man is a catalyst in intensifying Amethio's corruption arc he ain't trying to save him he wants him to go nuts with this SDJFHSHJDNFS #AND HONESTLY??????????????THAT'S SO INTERESTING #I'm also taking that Gibeon namedrop here as a sign that him and Amethio coooould be father and son #like Gibeon wasn't even that disappointed with him losing against Rayquaza he went all like “what did you FEEL" #WHAT AN ODD QUESTION TO ASK CONSIDERING HOW TERAPAGOS REPEATEDLY SCREAMED AT THE BOY LIKE HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM #AND SUPPOSEDLY BOTH TERAPAGOS AND RAYQUAZA ARE THE KEYS TO REACHING RAKUA SO HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM #imagine if Rakua's in space hence it requiring Rayquaza to accessJSHDAKSNDKASNDSD /LH /J #MORE PALPABLY IT MIIIGHT BE IN A DIFFERENT TIME PERIOD ENTIRELY BECAUSE OF TERAPAGOS BUT IMAGINESDJKFSNJDFN #pokemon #pokemon horizons #anipoke #pokeani #amethio #explorer amethio #hamber #explorer hamber #master gibeon

"SALVATION" - fanmix for Zerxus Ilerez from EXU: Calamity.

Listen: (Youtube) Lyrics:

Fortitude / The Chant - Gojira Get a hold of yourself, rise above The better part of you, immortal

May this purple spring flow into your soul Exhausting all these black holes inside Wake up to the sound of doom Let this chant ring in your bones and lift you up

Lost! - Coldplay Just because I'm hurting Doesn't mean I'm hurt Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserved No better and no worse

Drowning Man - U2 Take my hand You know I'll be there If you can I'll cross the sky for your love For I have promised All to be with you tonight And for the time that will come

Salvation - Editors Salvation! Deliverance is ours by the light of the stars

Howling - SYML I lay me down at the feet of your beauty Power my spirit, awaken within me My blood and my body will sing out your praises Save me, save me, save me now

How'm I Supposed to Die - Civil Twilight How'm I supposed to die When there's only one way to live?

My Body Is A Cage - Arcade Fire I'm living in an age That calls darkness light Though my language is dead Still the shapes fill my head I'm living in an age Whose name I don't know Though the fear keeps me moving Still my heart beats so slow

Start the Healing - Korn I should've withstood, I shouldn't bow down I couldn't get through, what could I do? I can take it all away, the feelings Break apart the pain and start the healing

Shadow and Soul - Red Dark and light Caught between, caught between Endless night Underneath, underneath Hunger, my untold, I’m waiting Find me inside endless night, our endless night My furtive soul, a heart unknown It’s buried alive The boundary fades between Shadow and soul

Cassandra - Echoes and Signals We will go Into the flames And we will turn Into the blazing fire

And I know Some things are meant To become gold Inside the burning fire

#Bee and Puppycat #I’ve listened to this song over and over like all day long #Anyway I binged the entire series including season 2 in two days. LOL #I love Puppycat soooOOOOO MUCH #And I’m obsessed with Space Outlaw. Like it’s probably unhealthy. JFNDNDN #I’m so glad we got a backstory ep with him in s2 🤧 #Anyway this is perfect timing bc they’re rereleasing the series on Netflix next month 👀👀👀 #AND they’re reanimating the pilot #AND this means more people will see it and watch it so we might get a season 3 confirmation #AND I’ll get to see more fanart 🥺 #Shima speaks #Video #I love you Bee I love you Puppycat I love you Deckard I love you Cass I love you Cardamon I love you TempBot I lo

i will say however that after reading the manga i need to start putting more respect on bon's name because he's like so ??? i dont even know how to describe him he's so !!!! ok i will start with smart even though i don't think smart does him justice (under a readmore bc i start getting rambly)

like bon has an incredible amount of discipline and talent? like my boy memorizes arias in no time flat? like during the kyoto arc his dad is on death's door, he's resolving some internal trauma himself, and yet he's able to memorize a (idk what its called right now the words escape me so im putting a loanword here) sutra that he's not aware of? like multi-tasking king here. during that game with lewin he had memorized other world language verses to summon certain demons? lewin didn't even expect him to know those summon chants and yes he ended up flubbing a bit towards the end but that's just a character flaw he has (known to not always see the full picture during situations). he's a history freak. he has such a clear grasp on topics that he's able to teach them to his classmates (good teacher). he wrote that report for lighting on the train while some sort of catastrophe was going on in japan. this boy is so efficient. OH YEAH I FORGOT BUT HE WAS GOING TO DRAGOON CLASSES TO MEISTER IN THAT even though it's mentioned to be difficult to be an aria and dragoon.

ANYWAYS IM JUST SAYING that ryuji is like....it's like he's a master at focusing. not only does he have this insane amount of brain power, but he is also able to stay calm during it. like his brain is able to move and maintain focus stressful situations.

also the biggest thing i want to say is that, ryuji is driven to be this disciplined because he wants to help others. a lot of his character ambitions are externally focused, due to this heavy sense of responsibility he feels for everyone around him (since his social network is very large and he is the inheritor of the myodha and also he is the bon LOL). bon maintains this level of discipline because he's doing what he thinks is right or admirable for the sake of others.

and i know yukio is here in universe achieving more (being an exorcist with two declared meisiters [and probably a third or fourth], also like the school valedictorian, a teacher, and school commitee) BUT THE KEY DIFFERENCE is that yukio is doing this all out of a spite due to his self-inflicted superiority complex. like yukio's only doing this because he HAS to prove to himself that he's the best/a winner so he takes on any sort of responsibility to appear like a normal high functioning person in society despite being a mental trainwreck.

i fully believe that if yukio saw a therapist he would not be anywhere near this level ToT and im saying this outta love <3 yes yukio is chasing after father fujimoto and rin, but i feel like it's because he fundamentally dislikes his personality and temperament (something he can't change) and wishes it was more like theirs because he really really admires that.

i think Bon is the sort of prodigy he wants to be (when it comes to outside successes) and you could insert a narrative here between the two of them. like if yukio was just a student in class, he would be competing with bon for the spot of top dog, or he would see bon as competition and as someone to beat (yukio would be looking at the top scores and be number one but then see bon at number idk 2 or 3 and ball his hand in a fist and go "suguro..." like timmy turner's dad saying dinkleburg qwkdsakljkj). meanwhile bon would be like "yeah im nothing compared to yukio tho that guy's a beast. i admire him tho"

tdlr:

bon is just as capable as yukio (and could be a second yukio if yukio didn't have trauma and such a large inferiority complex). bon is able to achieve all this success because he's very altruistic, while yukio is able to achieve all this because he's extremely self-absorbed and egocentric. also i love bon and think he's a very special boy. a very mary sue-esque character (joking but also not).

#i am about to sleep im so sleepy my head is aching HOWEVER I CANNOT BE SILENCED i WILL ramble about my thoughts anyways ily ryuji #i know i can wrod this better i just need it out so that i can remember to word it better lol #i love them BOTH WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH #ao no exorcist #blue exorcist #also dont kill me if my interpretation is wrong or doesnt suit fanon ive never really interacted with the fanon side of things this is just #how i kinda digested it after binge reading the entire series in two days after only watching the anime #ryuji suguro #yukio okumura #anyways off to sleep my shoulders are killing me my back hurts i can barely type i just was possessed and had to let it be known.

[sweatyflytrap]

the issue with me is that I will read 2-3 parts of a series and then forget it exists and never read another part ever again. My level of enjoyment has nothing to do with this phenomenon and this is why my copy of LOTR being all in one means my brain thinks it's just one book and not three so this never happens with it

#I have three Ln series all. on hold for months on #rip to durarara one day I will. binge read you babygirl 😭 #I keep thinking of reading the 2nd part of the other series I like and just don't? #read first two parts of a scifi series and actually enjoyed it ALOT and then just never read the third part and it has been a month 😭 #I am just not built to read multipart works

I would like to live in a world where the Mistmantle Chronicles are at least nearly as popular as The Wingfeather Saga and The Green Ember

#please it's so beautiful #i have cried many times throughout this last book #i spent the last two days binging this series #and it's so worth it #mistmantle chronicles

Okay, so I finally finished the live action atla and I have some thoughts.

I feel like they have stripped away the soul of the cartoon. By taking away Aangs fun, Kataras angriness, and Sokkas humour the story feels empty. Also, someone said Zuko doesn’t say honour once, which is truly detrimental to his character.

By not having any filler episodes, we didn’t get to learn who these characters were, and they didn’t get to bond with each other, so it made no sense when they kept telling each other they were family like guys you met a week ago.

I think they tried to make up for it, including as many fan favourite moments as possible, and by sticking to the key original plot beats. But in doing this they’re getting there in very different ways, which don’t always make sense, and feel really crammed together and rushed. I think they needed to let some of these moments go and tell their version of the story, because let’s be honest, the show really doesn’t hold up on its own and I think the main reason people are enjoying it is because of these references, not because of the story as a whole.

It seems like they’re trying to make a live action cartoon rather than a live action adaptation of a cartoon. All the wigs are terrible, Yues in particular. All the costumes look really cheap, I think partly this is due to them sticking too close to the cartoon and wanting the characters to look exactly the same when it doesn’t fit in this new medium. I think another reason for this is that particularly the water tribe costumes don’t look fit for use, the coats are all way too thin and I cannot believe that they would keep anyone warm enough at the poles. I think another reason for this is none of the clothes look worn, and they all look freshly ironed, which makes it difficult to believe in this world.

I will give them credit though, making the 41st Zukos crew was so smart and I love it.

#having the mechanist jet and omashu in the same episode was a big mistake #The costumingwas truly terrible #all the characters looked like cosplayers #No disrespect cosplayers I think they’re great #But I think there’s a difference between cosplaying a cartoon character and playing a live action version of a cartoon character #The whole vibe of the gaang was off #I also really didn’t like the azula backstory #having mai and tylee around instead of doing their own thing feels like azula has much more of a support system in place #so it feels less likely she’s going to have a breakdown #I know that’s not how mental health works #But changing her backstory changes her character #And I’d be interested in future seasons to see if this changes how they handle Azula overall #also why was ozai sounding kind of proud of zuko #it makes no sense #The only reason I can think of is because it was in front of Azula #like is this one of his manipulation tactics? #I just don’t understand what the point of making a live action was when we all knew the cartoon was always going to be better #it took me almost a week to get through the series #And usually I’ve binge watch shows as soon as they come out #So if I’m not finished in two days max it really shows that the show wasn’t that good #nahvatar the last airbender #Bring back filler episodes #atla live action #atla #natla #avatar the last airbender #netflix avatar the last airbender #avatar the last airbender live action #avatar live action #avatar

My Gay Theater Kid Ass After Watching Hazbin Hotel: Ok so this is gonna be my entire personality the rest of the year.

#hazbin hotel #the music is so good!!!! #season two better be coming! #I binged the whole series in two days #I've listened to the soundtrack more than I've listened to the Beetlejuice soundtrack and it's only been two days #Poison and Hell's Best Dad are the best songs in my opinion and I ain't changing my mind-

Why did nobody tell me this show existed and that it has a character who is aware they are a genius and makes it everyone’s problem and also is nearodivergent but isnt infantalised or villainised for it and also is low empathy but not evil and also is a middle child and also is purple and also

#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #donatello #fanart #my art #digital art #ughhhhh #binged the entire season in two days and I want MORE #PLEASE NICKY SPONGEBOB #ALSO why did NOBODY tell this series has fantastic character design #like literally so good #Anyway Donnie is a comfort character for me now I finally understand what that term actually means #Entrapta also got rly close to that in Shera but alas got infantalised and literally leeshed like a child in one episode

[area51-escapee]

One thing I found interesting when I rewatched Steven Universe was how much I loved Peridot. I don’t know why but I remember watching it back during the og run and I just did not like her but I thoroughly enjoyed her this time around.

#until I watched way too much in one go and for like #two days after I finished the series all my thoughts were in her voice #the price of binging shows ig I don’t do that often

[wordsifelt]
