#i need to rewatch this so bad right now

[louisdotmp3]

one of the buffy s6 central conflicts being that you can’t be honest with your closest friends and family because you think there’s something really wrong with you and nothing will be able to fix it because it’s who you are at your core so every day you just pretend and don’t talk about it because that’s what life is. right. trying to pay bills while not thinking about the fact that maybe you’re an irredeemable monster?

FINISHED DIGIMON TAMERS. I liked it! I don’t think it’s perfect / without flaws though. Nothing is. But I enjoyed it. I'm glad I finally decided to watch it. It was fun!

Under the cut will be I suppose my more full length review

Things I really liked about tamers:

- Really cool digimon. Ive very much come around to the designs and lore etc of the digimon in tamers, they’re really nicely designed and have really interesting personalities or lore behind them

- I liked how it tackled family and family dynamics better than savers did. Savers had a very strange like, “biological blood relations are The Most Important Thing Above All” attitude about it which I hated, but Tamers was much more nuanced about the family relationships and I liked seeing the more unconventional family structures, like Ruki's mom being divorced

- Generally I love how global it felt. I loved how there was so many different characters from all over the world, and how the existence of people and countries outside of Japan genuinely mattered and influenced the plot

- The world-building for the digimon is REALLY really cool especially the lore about how digimon and the digital world was created. I love seeing it actually get discussed and explored how things work, whats the correlation between humans and the digital world, etc. like how the devas and holy beasts were inspired by irl folklore and mythology and cultural beliefs

Things I didn’t like about tamers or had gripes with-

- To me, the biggest flaw of tamers was whatever the hell sort of theme or messaging it had going on. I know it’s supposed to be trying to say something about morality and power and violence, but all of of comes across extremely muddled or aimless- do you want to leave it open to interpretation, or do you have a specific stance you want me to take? It just felt like saying words for the sake of saying words. And along the way, I felt like the series just dropped all of it anyways to follow other themes commonly found in digimon media, like the power of friendship between digimon and humans or humans coming to respect digimon as real beings with autonomy. They have this whole scene about how depending on perspective, the deva are good or evil, but then the show literally pegs the majority of them as inherently evil anyways and kills them???? It’s frustrating. Only really Beelzemon sort of lives up to the idea of moral ambiguity / is given any sort of character arc regarding morality and power, but one well written character can’t save all of it.

-Connected to the above, generally, I didn’t like the villains of Tamers nearly as much as I did the villains in Savers. I just made a post about this so TDLR: The D-Reaper is a terrifying eldritch abomination, sure, but they’re an extremely one note and uninteresting villain who again, is portrayed as objectively evil and must be eradicated / destroyed. They’re not very compelling and they mostly really get any sort of narrative weight due to their connection with Juri, and how they connect to their character and her trauma, and thus, how it affects everyone else and their attempts to save her. Idk. Idk.

- I didn’t like how Tamers was generally more about romance or hornier than Savers was. It was really weird to me. I understand that kids think about love and stuff too, obviously, but most of its inclusion was just weird to me and made me uncomfortable in certain episodes. I Don’t Want To Think About The Love Lives Of 10 Year Olds. I Am Twenty One Years Old.

General other comments-

- Plot and main + side Characters were generally pretty good! I liked all of the characters in Tamers generally, though I will say that I don’t feel as though you get to connect with the characters in tamers as much as say Savers. It might be due to the much larger cast, or the fact I'm not like, you know 10, but I didn’t really get to know the characters I feel as well as I got to know the savers characters. And generally, I felt some of the character writing was very weak- Ryo and Cyberdramon were the only characters I genuinely didn’t like, because they felt overall useless and meaningless to the narrative as a whole- they don’t really add anything outside of deus ex machina style Actions That Progress The Plot. #Justice For Hirokazu for fucking real. I liked Leomon, but he also very much felt like a filler character designed just to die. Sorry.

- The tonal dissonance, especially when it would play the songs, was a mixed bag. Sometimes it was very funny and endearing and cute to watch the characters go from a harrowing scene to a much more lighthearted setting, and other times, particularly near the end of the series, it just drove me absolutely insane how it felt as though Nobody Was Acting Like A Real Person and taking this Seriously Enough. The music was good, but most of the times whenever it would start playing it would just completely take me out of the scene, especially the more serious ones.

I'm sure I'm forgetting other stuff I've wanted to say 😭 this isn’t really meant to be a serious review or anything. Again at the end of the day I don’t regret watching tamers, i'm really happy I did. But I think even for kids shows, it’s important to keep a critical eye, you know? To not be blinded by nostalgia. Idk. Idk.

#dinu yells into the void #dinu yells in the void #digimon #dinu watches digimon #SORRY i didnt do a full review for savers #maybe on a rewatch ill do a proper liveblog and like review #also please dont see anything i say about tamers if it’s negative as like #me hating the show bc i rly didnt 😭 i like it i do #im just a media analyser…. i like analysing media good and bad bits #ill be taking a break i think after this #im gonna see about watching the two like movies they made for tamers tomorrow or next week #and then ill move onto frontiers #i gotta let myself recharge after watching like 100 episodes of tv. my body cant handle much more #im also going to comic con so i need to give myself time to work on my hopeful beelzemon cosplay #annddd thats all from me right now folks bye ye

are there actually hnw anime-only fans..................

#the first two movies suck ass i dont think they created much of a lasting impact #haru.miou anime was ok #and hero.taru............... #the animation was nice and fun but tbh now that a year has passed i can see that the overall balance for me was like . barely positive #the goods do kinda outweigh the bads but it was still eh #i can't see myself rewatching the first ~5-6 episodes like ever #but i feel like . the people who actually liked it must have checked out Some of the songs later right ? #the idea of anime only mona fans ? #actually the idea of anime-only lxl fans is already scary #i keep remembering that one qrt cowboy got in one of the 'someone wrote 3k fics for a rarepair' viral tweets #that was something like ''if they actually thought the source material was good then good for them!'' #it was written in a kind tone they were trying to be supportive fr but it was So Funny #i need to see if i have it saved #(it was referring to the anime specifically) #hworks #mar's midnight rambles

yuna d kaito you could have been so interesting if you werent written Like That

#its genuinely frustrating because he IS interesting minus the weird gross implied shit about he and akihos relationship #it literally didnt have to be like that you didnt need those parallels #some very obvious motivations are Right there about how he knew her mom who tried to help him when he was a kid #but he ignored it and now shes not here to look after her own kid #and how he likely deep deep DEEP down feels at least a little bad its kind of his fault shes being used as an object #thats already really good motivation you didnt have to do the unnecessary stuff #i cant even type it out properly just 🤢 #rewatching the anime was so fun for most of it then i would remember he existed and was grimacing 90% of the time he was on screen

It’s SO weird to watch other f/o content while I’m so focused on Charlie. I watched the newest Rick and M.orty just now and my brain was like ‘wow Ren like a month ago would’ve been freaking out over this but right now I feel Nothing’

#I do love a good meta commentary and I betcha I would’ve had a lot to say about the guy saying Rick can’t change bc it’s his kryptonite #and it’s weird bc I’m aware of that; like I’m like ‘huh that’s soemthing I’d usually be chomping at the bit to break down’ #but I finished the episode and came upstairs and rewatched my Charlie reel instead ahfjfl #it makes me almost sad but. hey feelings aren’t good or bad right; they just are #I’m sure Rick will come back around but right now I’m rly happy with Charlie and I don’t really need to think about anyone else #he takes up a good 98% of my brain so. I should enjoy that while I have it ahfjfl #and it’s just funny bc I’ll literally be so afraid of falling out of love with my current hyperfixation and then also be sad that I’m not— #hyper fixated on something else at the same time #when I’m actually rly happy to have a new big hyperfixation like Charlie #idk man I’m feeling a lot of things ahdjfl #maybe I’m just worried that Rick is out there knowing I’m not focusing on him #but I don’t need to worry about that like. I control all of this. if I want Rick to be happy then he’s happy #I don’t have to worry about letting him down #ren speaks #renlie #rickren

Sometimes you just want to rewatch your comfort show for the bazillionth time, but it switched streaming platforms a while back and you don’t wanna give Amazon any money 😢

#I mean I know I can pirate but 8 seasons is so much to downlowd #tvd #I know it left netflix like 2 years ago already but until now I never felt the need so bad to watch it again #maybe I should watch one of those gay vampire shows I heard about instead #vampires are vampires right? #but new shows are such a commitment #I just want to watch Damon and Elena and Stefan and Bonney and Caroline and Matt and and and... #sometimes I just miss them #maybe I should just start pirating the first season and see how far I get #I never finish watching anything anymore anyway #I haven't finished season 3 of tua #I haven't finished watching the sandman #I haven't even finished rewatching ohshc

I know I’m making a joke but you really don’t understand how angry I am at the recent news.

[Video Captions: “Why are you the way that you are? / Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not that way. / I hate so much about the things that you choose to be.”]

#just when I finally accepted the fact we won’t get a season three #and I convinced myself everything would be okay because atleast I can rewatch it whenever I want #what does Disney do? #I really just…they are so unbelievable… #just so they don’t have to write it on their taxes?? come on man! #and now they’re going to raise prices? #‘confident that we’re on the right path for streaming’s long-term profitability’ #literally what are you talking about?? #Not only do you cancel shows that don’t make you immediate money— #now your removing them since they are supposedly taking money out of your billion dollar corporation wallet #and then you proceed to renew the most médiocre passionless projects #your literally sabotaging yourself?? #cause guess what if you don’t make the people giving you money happy they’re going to leave and find someone else that can #i even had to cancel plans and stay home because of how mentally and physically draining this news has made me feel #I’m not even trying to be dramatic…just stuff like this hits me hard for some reason #I know I can find the show online somewhere but still. #the people who worked on this must feel terrible…I feel so bad #my sister: it’s like if Van Gogh painted something and tried to give it to the museum and they just tell him #‘no we don’t want any more of your art. and also we’re going to destroy every single painting you’ve made. have a nice day!’ :) #i might talk more about this later but for now I’ll stop…sorry if I made you upset I just needed to get this off my chest #mysterious benedict society #the mysterious benedict society #tmbs

why the fuck did it JUST occur to me that Luz was basically reliving her father's death with Eda during Young Blood, Old Souls

#is it confirmed her dad was ill btw i cant remember #im rewatching so i guess I'll see anyway #but im watching the s1 finale and i had to pause because i just realized this #if her dad got sick and died? she came to the boiling isles and immediately found eda #and then eda looked her in the eyes and said ''im dont think im bouncing back this time. take care of yourself and king'' #i imagine Luz's dad said something similar #''im going away. im sorry. take care of yourself and your mom for me okay?'' #ya hold on i need to lay down for a minute #Luz was obsessed with fantasy for the same reasons we all are #escape this disappointing and depressing reality that just isnt built for someone like her #and she found the real life version! #only to be hit with #the Boiling Isles may have witches & demons & magic but. it's still the same. it will always be the same #you can't run away from the bad parts of life like your loved ones getting sick. & dying. #i had to watch someone i love so so much waste away to cancer & this is hitting me so hard right now god #i can only imagine what's going through Luz's head in that moment when Eda is telling her to go home to her family #she's seeing Eda go to her death. & this time she can DO something about it #she doesnt want to—or cant—go back to that house where her dad no longer lives and never will again #this is something like a second chance & HELL if she isnt gonna do everything she possibly can to take hold of it & not let go #im not saying there's nothing good about the world btw im just saying that sometimes the world seems that way #& you try to escape but you cant & it feels so terrible. you just need to focus on the good parts & love as much as you can despite it all #sorry for the rant this all just hit me suddenly. i saw that tiny little scene & it was like. I Understand Now. had to get it out #The Owl House #TOH

I have it on good record that the reason your joke bombed was probably because half of them never learned how to read

#Bucchigire! #Shine On! Bakumatsu Bad Boys #ブッチギレ! #Imagine not knowing that Isami in Kondo Isami was written the same as Isamiashi #Because I learned that pun in that moment in Episode 5 #Anyways I'm totally not rewatching the anime already #Like only a crazy person would rewatch an anime right after it aired due to seasonal depression and a need to draw their favorite scenes #Like ha ha ha who would be crazy enough to spiral down a Bucchigire rabbit hole so hard that Tumblr now associates their blog with the tag? #Not this loser ha ha ha totally not me #I forgot to color Todo's scar no one look at it #Insanity Draws #Insanity of Mojiru
