#i'm still working on season 4

[bizarrelittlemew]

calling it right now that season 3 starts like this

#so confused about people saying the season finale feels like the end because to me it didn't at all #there's like 5-10 issues immediately set up for another season #they're in a happy place at this point because they've both realized their love is bigger than anything else #and makes it worth working on their problems together #the problems are still very much there #both of them have deep self esteem/self loathing issues that haven't been resolved in the week since ed woke up #ed doesn't know about stede's trauma #they haven't talked through anything #and they'll be shit at starting/running an inn lmao it's not gonna go well #and those are just some of the internal issues #then there's prince ricky and all the authorities that would very much like to get their hands on both blackbeard and stede bonnet #because stede just full-on kept using his government name after faking his death. nice one #the crew are not “gone” they're more like off to college for a bit but will probably run into trouble immediately #again because while they escaped to the ship they didn't eliminate the threat (the british empire) #it's not a forever goodbye #ok this got super long already anyway i have a whole fic marinading in my brain until i've finished these 4 wips i'm in the middle of ✌️ #hope we get a renewal soon because i want to see the rest of their story!! #ofmd s2 spoilers #ofmd s2 #ofmd #our flag means death

[dazais-guardian-angel]

Chapter 110 is 13 pages long welcome to hell!!! so in a lot of ways this is just more fuel for a theory that I've had for a few weeks now, that's only gotten stronger with each recent season 5 episode, which is that the last episode of the season is gonna end on 110, and that Asagiri/Harukawa and Bones have been collaborating to make this happen, specifically because it's a major turning point that would be the only good place to end the season on.

When we started getting especially long chapters again (like from 25-35ish pages, with the exception of 107.5, the last two being some of the longest we've ever had), at first I just assumed that Asagiri/Harukawa got freed up from some other obligations they'd been having to cause the extremely short/half chapters, like promotional stuff for the anime/Beast movie, or working on light novels. But then 109 happened, with the "supposed" death of Dazai, and heavy emphasis at the end on how literally everyone is at their lowest point right now, and I got to thinking. 11 episodes is a strangely specific number for an anime season -- why not 12, or 13, or even 10, like you'd usually see? Why have we gotten suddenly gotten two 35 page chapters out of nowhere, that's almost unheard of at this point? They're both beautiful chapters, don't get me wrong (as always), and maybe A/H simply just didn't want to cut them in halves because they felt like the full emotional impact wouldn't hit/that there were no good cutoff points in them, but you can't deny that it's surprising, after all the shorter chapters we've been getting. Why has the anime been going at such insanely breakneck pacing for the most part ever since around the Sunday Tragedy chapters, even more so than it has in the past? So much so that it feels dangerously close to overtaking the manga?

Well, maybe, just maybe, it's because..... Asagiri decided a long time ago that whatever happens in 110 is the only point that feels "season finale"-worthy enough, in an arc that still isn't anywhere close to being completely wrapped up, and so both the manga and the anime have been specifically coordinated to reach that part within 2 and a half weeks of each other?

I've seen a lot of people now think season 5 will end with 109, and as much as my sadistic side would find that hilarious, I honestly don't think they'd do that and realistically don't want it to happen; it'd be so cruel to cliffhanger the anime for years like that, and just doesn't feel like a season cliffhanger BSD would do, a series that is ultimately hopeful and uplifting. Seasons 2 and 3 had a positive, conclusive ending; the only reasons seasons 1 and 4 didn't was because they're technically not really full seasons of their own, and are more like the first cour of another "season" that also came out that same year (seasons 1 and 2 both aired in 2016, so they're more like one big season, and seasons 4 and 5 have both aired this year, so they're also more like one big season, again taking into account how episodes 12 and 50 are not satisfying finales like episodes 24, 37, and hypothetically, 61, are). I really can't see season 5 ending with Dazai and Fukuzawa's supposed deaths, Sigma being unconscious and maybe close to death, Atsushi being vulnerable and limbless again, everyone we love still vampires, and the entire world being basically doomed; that's just too depressing and not like BSD at all. However, having said that, if it doesn't end there, there really isn't any good place to end the season before that, either, that feels in any way satisfying or like a finale at all. And so, to me, that only leaves after 109: chapter 110.

I think things are really gonna turn around next chapter. Like I said, everyone is at their lowest point right now, it cannot possibly get any worse, the framing of Dazai, Fukuzawa, and sskk at the end of 109 is telling us that; this is the time for the heroes to finally start winning again, with Aya being so close to pulling out the sword, and for all the thematic reasons other people have talked about to death that I don't need to go into here again. This upcoming chapter being so short again makes a part of me wary of 110 being "the one", so to speak, I won't lie, but at the same time, it's very possible that it needs to be that short because that's all the final episode of the season will be able to reasonably fit in, since it's already gonna be VERY close if they do make it all the way to 109. And at the end of the day, I don't doubt at all that Asagiri and Harukawa can make these the most monumental and game-changing mere 13 pages ever if they wanted to; a chapter does not at all need to be extremely long in order to be an important and impactful one, even if short ones we've gotten in the past haven't felt the most important.

An additional thought I've had, though this is much more crack territory than all this already is, is that since we know from Anime Expo that a Stormbringer movie at some point is highly likely (judging from Asagiri's reaction when someone brought it up), it's possible that chapter 110 and thus the final episode will involve the long-anticipated return of Verlaine and/or Adam, or at least some other major reference to Stormbringer, that would naturally and smoothly lead into a Stormbringer movie to explain things to people who haven't read the novel. It would make a lot of sense, especially since the s4 OP has the Old World sign behind Chuuya, which might be a hint that this has been in the works ever since seasons 4/5 were first in planning with Asagiri. We also know that Dazai and Chuuya's voice actors apparently struggled to record their lines together this season, which probably relates to 101 and possibly 109, but it could be 110 too.... I could be very wrong, as I'm no expert on this kind of thing, but I kinda doubt they would bring Chuuya's actor in for just the vampire growls, and Asagiri placing heavy emphasis on Chuuya's importance this season in that one interview gives me the impression that he's talking about much more than just 101/109. But that's the least solid evidence I have, that's just mostly based on vibes I get.

So basically, I think a lot of factors -- the unusual episode count, how close the anime is to catching up to the manga with three whole episodes left, the seemingly arbitrary recent chapter lengths, and the climactic events of 109 -- can tell us that 110 might be a very, VERY big deal. Again, there's of course no way this arc is anywhere near close to being finished, with so much left to address and resolve, but since it is currently incomplete in the manga, unlike the previously adapted arcs, if the anime was going to adapt it at all, they'd have to find a place that feels satisfying enough to end this season, knowing there won't be more anime for a long time after this, and so I think they specifically planned for that, from both Bones' and A/H's sides. 10 episodes might not have been enough to reach that point, but 12 or 13 might have been too many it wouldn't have been if Bones actually decided to slow down and let the story breathe the way it needs to, but this post isn't meant to criticize the anime, so maybe 11 was just right. And maybe Asagiri and Harukawa specifically pushed to make recent chapters longer than usual, in order to make sure that the manga reached the story content in 110 the monthly release right before season 5 was to end.

Is this just copium? Absolutely. Am I going to look like an absolute clown in two days when this post ages like milk? Probably. But the evidence is There, so let me just enjoy my delusions until Sunday, okay 🥂🫡

#bungou stray dogs #seriously call me a clown and point and laugh at me if I'm proven wrong all you want #but I really feel like there's solid evidence for this #either s5 isn't gonna reach 109 at all (but I seriously cannot fathom where you would want to stop before then) or they'll go beyond it #if they really do end it with 109....... well i'll give Bones kudos for having the balls to do that ig lol #maybe i'm underestimating (overestimating???) them idk #also just to clarify I don't wanna make it sound like I think Asagiri let the anime/Bones dictate the manga's pacing #like I'm sure these were his/their (him and Harukawa's) own decisions first and foremost #not that (if this theory is true) the anime had a major impact on how the chapters were split and that it- #-would have been extremely different otherwise #i'm pretty confident in that Asagiri does not do anything with BSD he isn't comfortable with #and he doesn't let anyone tell him how to write his story #I just feel like he worked with Bones to make this near-simultaneous release happen #BUT if this is the case I don't feel like it had any major effect on the writing/final product that is the manga #like the last handful of chapters have been so incredible #so I at least am still perfectly happy lol #(i mean i'm devastated and a nervous wreck but u know 🫡 in a good way lmao) #anyway 110 in two days please let this theory be true because I need some fucking hope already #please let Oda show up as Dazai's guardian angel to help (see what I did there-) #it would be the perfect way to end the collective season that is 4/5 with s4 beginning with Oda and now ending with Oda #Asagiri are you reading me are you picking up what I'm putting down please please a ghost Oda is long overdue please- #Oda Verlaine Adam just GIVE ME SOMEONE ALREADY 😭😭😭 #MAYBE EVEN A TASTE OF THE FYODOR BACKSTORY TO TIE INTO HIM BEING IN ANIME UNTOLD ORIGINS.

the way people just openly, openly, openly ask and beg for more content, more updates, more fics, more, more more is not a good look????

do you know how long it takes to make content? and it's consumed in 30 minutes, but people spend hours and days and weeks and months making something and it's consumed so quickly...and people beg and beg and beg but can't be assed to leave a reply under that artwork and be like "WOW! that's amazing, i love this"

fandom spaces are missing that sense of community because all they care about is getting content sooner...but encouraging others and uplifting them is how content happens naturally, not whining for it

#and i don't wanna pull the “i've been in fandom spaces before some of y'all were born” but i fucking have #and i've been in empty fandoms...where nothing gets made. maybe once every 4 months there's a new thing #there is new lego content every fucking day. there's new art and fic everyday #AND THE SHOW IS STILL GOING??? you just have to wait. season 4 came out LAST YEAR??? #it hasn't been like 5 years or ANYTHING we're not starving for content...our show isn't cancelled it's...being made and worked on #and that takes time #but i've never seen this.. reach of “GIMMIE MORE” for something that we're gonna get. you just gotta wait a few extra months like holy shit #i get being excited! i'm excited too. there's nothing wrong with that #but whining and whining repeatedly is just something i don't understand

Can you imagine what it must all have been like for Gray though?

Like. Picture this. After getting badly injured on your job, you get out of a long, long hospital stay. We're talking months. You don't remember any of those months. You don't even remember the accident.

So you get back to your boring little life. It's the same as it was before, but after brushing so close to death you do have a better appreciation for it. Or you try to, anyway.

And then you meet this weird young woman for whom you feel an inexplicable fondness. You talk for about 4 minutes. Later, instead of meeting you again as promised, she slips away. You think you'll never see her again. Well.

A few months later, she appears out of thin air again and says she seeked you out specifically to help with her job. You want to help, so you say yes, and you fly to New Zealand. There, everything seems straightforward until it- doesn't. It looks like you've been tricked, but for what? Then you find yourself into a situation more sinister and dangerous than you thought possible, yet you're not scared. When someone threatens the woman (your friend? It feels weird to call her a friend when you barely know her, but you feel close to her), you don't recognize the voice even though it evokes contradictory feelings in you. Happiness, fear? When you're in front of that weird bomb-like device, you don't know what it is but you know how to disable it, instinctively, confidently, like muscle memory.

Back in Sydney, you still don't get all the answers you want. The woman disappears again, but it's okay. You think this won't be the last you've seen of her. And maybe then you'll get your answers.

#the thing is. the thing is there's so much POTENTIAL with that dude #that storyline is so cool. the whole. 'i don't remember these people or situation but they still evoke emotions and they feel familiar' #is absolutely fascinating to me #losing your memories doesn't undo the year and a half of training + being a fully realized operative #but iiii don't like the way they went at it in s4 #the whole 'vile made him a good person by what heightening his empathy'? what?? #i do like the reveal that HE seeked out vile and wanted to join tho. #very interesting and tragic wrt his friendship with carmen #but now rewatching the episode and watching him ask if they're the good guys is. weird. #like sure it helped carmen believe gray was actually the good person she saw him as #but i'm sorry i can't take the 'they brainwashed him into being good' seriously it just. doesn't work #still can't really articulate my feelings about it. we'll see if i get somewhere by season 4 lol #carmen sandiego 2019 #graham calloway #csweekly

I swear I’m a patient person (I’m not) and I trust that it’s all for buildup and is good in the long run and will make things even juicier when the payoff comes but...

I miss season 4 Buddie :(. I think I’m gonna rewatch just season 4 because they were so cute that whole time. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I love me some create distance or at least absence and snap back like a rubber band with extreme emotional intimacy and depth but...I miss my domestic buddie! They were so cute! The dynamic duo!

Yeah. I think I’m gonna rewatch season 4. (contemplating whether to stop after 412 or not though)

#911fox #buddie #season 4 buddie #buddie dynamic #they were in their besties era #i just rewatched clips from the crossover #and like i know that if they got too comfortable in it they would get stuck forever bc that's how this stuff works and they need to maintain #some sort of momentum for it to be a romance ofc #and maybe i'm just missing it because it feels like there's less when it's week to week but #i'm straight up forgetting what they're like like #i know they love each other but rn it's in a balling love confession way #i miss the bromance without the b if you know what i'm saying #403 game nights and all that jazz #im i'm sure they still have that lord knows there's plenty of zoo type stuff offscreen but #i miss seeing it! #and again like i KNOW them being the drama and not just the background tea with their joint reactions is good but man oh man i miss that #LITERALLY WHERE IS THE DYNAMIC DUO #like i made another post about how it's good they're spending more time w/ people onscreen to establish people they would ultimately talk ab #out their feelings more with and even just to give rep to more dynamics more #and i love hen and buck and i love eddie with bobby #but it's like those are their besties and each other is their family #why can't it still be both!!! #anyways

Decided to spontaneously watch three seasons of Craig of the Creek in like. A couple days and the first thing I'll say is it's a very good show. The second thing I'll say is that Craig Williams could defeat the Collector in 2 minutes of screentime if he were there

#ramblings of a lunatic #toh #uh. do i tag cotc??? idk if it has an active fandom or anything #it's target demographic skews decently young after all #eh the series name is in the post itself. if it wants to show up in search it will #anyway maybe less Craig specifically and more the stump/creek kids in general. they'd simply understand it #cotc was meant to be a ''put on in the bg while I'm working'' show. then i got too tired to work for multiple weeks (I'm in hell!) #and it ended up with my undivided attention somehow #anyway it's really good. I'm bitter cause the pirating sites i was using didn't have the capture the flag arc #and i had to go to an Extra buggy site to find em #but hey now season 4 time! wee #I think omar becomes a main member of the stump kids in s4?? if so I'm excited for that. i love you green poncho #anyway i have an art exam tomorrow and I'm just not preparing for it at all (besides buying hot coco and milk for us all hdbdjfj) #partly bc I don't need to. but also i do not think i would even if i had to yknow? #that's where i am rn. hedonistically drifting through life. while still somehow being anxious. like a frog on a lilypad

[maddy-ferguson]

i am not anti jncy but i see no point in bringing stncy back in s4 and showing that nancy still feels some sort of attraction towards him if stncy is not gonna be a thing again? like why bring that plotline back in s4 for no reason in the same season jncy still are having relationship problems?

also nancy obviously is shown to feel something for steve whether or not ppl dismiss it or not. you could say that s1 was just not that deep sort of attraction, but then how u explain s4? there is no point in showing nancy's confusion and attraction towards steve in this season (and it doesnt make sense to bring the stncy tension back either).

this was sent to me before i talked about being a jncy endgame doubter yesterday and so for a minute there i was like oh my god single nancy truther ask? they know? but it wasn't that actually.

i don't know why you sent this to me specifically but you came to the right person as i am neither a jncy lover nor a jncy hater. i loved them in 2016 but season 2 kind of made me...stop caring. don't ask me why. i do however hate stncy so i'm not 100% impartial but it's not like i'd bend over backwards to make sense of jncy ending up together. i agree that it's really funny that people (on this side of the fandom especially!) don't seem to find jncy fighting and talking about "not understanding each other anymore" in season 3 and then lying to each other in season 4 at all worrying

as much as i despise the stncy comeback, i see a couple reasons as to why they would bring it back in season 4 when everyone thought the love triangle was behind us and assumed jonathan and nancy were endgame.

it makes us go "oh? this couple i've been used to for four seasons might not end up together after all?" which applies to the Other love triangle as well. and it could be for a myriad of reasons, maybe it's just for the drama, maybe it's because nancy is gonna end up with steve after all, maybe it's only meant to be applied to the other love triangle, but i think it's because jonathan and nancy are gonna break up. i expect them to break up. i think nancy's gonna end up single.

the only reason i'm confident stncy isn't gonna happen isn't because i'm sure jncy is endgame because as i just said i'm not, it's because it makes no sense thematically. and i know that doesn't sound like much when you get scenes of nancy staring at a shirtless steve, but i really just still don't see her checking him out as a deep (meaningful) attraction. if they'd shown us steve and nancy having deep personal talks maybe but what do we get all season really? sexual tension? nancy checking him out? an act of "unambiguous true love" that's just nancy trying not to let someone close to her die on her watch again?

and sure that's not nothing but nancy ending up with steve just doesn't make sense for her arc that's about not repeating her parents' mistake, not settling down with someone just because they're a good enough prospect (from a good family, rich, jock, wants a family) and just because you like them fine and aren't in love with them. non-conformity etc. steve's her el, to a lesser extent. this has been said a lot and i can see why you don't feel like that's a compelling argument, especially after s4 stncy, but to me season 4 really doesn't change the essence of the love triangle! it makes more noticeable even, especially when you compare it to mike's love triangle. also see my addendum at the end of this ask. maybe i'm overthinking it but that's the way i see it and all that added up makes me, i'm proud to say, 100% sure that steve and nancy are NOT ending up together

i'm sorry this was just me rehashing stuff that's been going around for months i'm having a hard time explaining what i mean even though it's all very clear in my head <3

now onto our jncy doubt agenda and my personal single nancy agenda.

stranger things likes to subvert tropes right? how in the hell is "the self-insert underdog weirdo freak gets the girl" a subversion of tropes? it's like THE sci-fi trope, it's more prevalent than born sexy yesterday! nancy and jonathan are the perfect example of the trope come to life, though since it's a 2010s show nancy has more agency than the regular 80s sci-fi love interest and doesn't exist just as The Woman and The Love Interest. but they still very much fit that trope. by not ending up with steve, nancy breaks the cycle and doesn't repeat her parents' marriage. that's great. jncy itself still isn't groundbreaking at all. and maybe they don't have to be, right, in terms of archetypes, jopper isn't groundbreaking either, i know, but it took them four seasons to get together and they haven't spent the last two seasons not working that great as a couple so i'll leave them be.

you know what is subverting a trope? the girl not ending up with the self-insert underdog weirdo freak. and not ending up in a relationship at all. it's 2023 so it isn't THAT crazy anymore and the idea of her not ending up with either of them has been floating around and i don't see anyone loving the fact that nancy's been in a love triangle for three seasons out of the four we have but i feel like ending the show with nancy being single would still make waves. especially because it's The love triangle, it's the one everyone in the cast has an opinion on, i just think her not ending up with anyone is fun.

i think nancy not ending up with either makes sense for jonathan and steve's arcs too (even though the concept of steve having a series-long arc is...debatable. but let's say he does) and i really just think it works on every level. this was mostly me talking about nancy because she's in the middle of the love triangle and because she's like a sister to me.

in the end maybe jonathan and nancy will end up together. you can say they have their goal of going to college together binding them together for instance, she wants to be a journalist and he wants to be i don't remember what exactly but a photograph and work in journalism too, and there's other things i'm sure, i just really don't expect them to. 60/40 maybe. or 70/30.

#single nancy truther 4 life #should i tag this anti jncy #it's okay you guys aren't gonna get offended and the reasons why i don't think they're ending up together are under the cut #i can't lie i don't even remember s4 stncy i blocked it out and i haven't seen season 4 in...i don't want to say how long because i'll lose #your trust anon #but i've been thinking this since this summer! s4 was still recent then #sorry for linking four of my own posts the first two aren't even relevant i just wanted you to be amused with me #sorry i do do the ignoring nancy apparently visibly being into steve again thing a little but i just don't think her still finding him #attractive matters that much in the grand scheme of things. like sure she doesn't think he's ugly! the rest of it still doesn't work #there's a few other things i wanted to say but i'm only human #oh steve vs will i should've said that #so many regrets #ask

I don't really know how to describe the feeling? FOMO somehow, maybe? I don't like it though.

It's like when there's two or three popular anime series and everyone is only talking about them and you just sit there after giving them a try like, "yeah, okay I see the appeal but... *munches on some popcorn while rewatching an anime from 10 years ago*"

I don't hate the series that this applies to. I kinda feel like maybe I just don't get it? I have felt this way even in middle school about books.

This is more about experiences outside of tumblr.

#{domino rambles after dark} #that post about how saturated each season is these days and there's no time to watch them all or enjoy them or remember them? #and you have THAT MUCH being aired throughout the year just to only see talk or hype about maybe 5 tops? #again outside of tumblr if i can easily control what i see then it doesn't count #bsd s5? only see it here #a lot of the hype this season is jjk and i get it! i enjoyed s1 and it got me actually watching anime again! but also ┐⁠(⁠´⁠ー⁠｀⁠)⁠┌ #i don't have that much interest is s2 and so somehow it's like watching out the window while everyone is having fun #am i also having fun? yes! but still... #that's my 5:30 AM two cents because i was starting to fall asleep #since i am at work falling asleep would be bad #after work i guess i'm gonna go to the stupid store and get some ingredients for ice cream #i wanna make ice cream i have a theory and want to prove it right #it's getting exhausting have to stop periodically to recap a book because i then have to remember the important plot details #when i'm distracted by my love of the character interactions and development #i worked 4 nights in a row and have somehow only read 1.5 books partially due to that #it's fun! but i also lose interest quickly that way #this is when i would like to say 'okay that's enough i'm going to sleep' but alas (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠) #this is also primpted by apparently the ceo of mappa saying yuri on ice didn't bring them enough money #but simultaneously not conforming whether the movie is actually being worked on or just canned. #okay now i will shut up because i think this is a lot for the tags to handle

The way that each and every time I re watch seasons 3 and 4, yandere Alucard is at the forefront of my mind. Like it's so him fr fr

I believe it's because of the slump he was in as well as how his attitude really reached the dgaf tier and it was hot af. I was very distraught when he was being harmed and in pain but the overall sass and dramatics that happened everywhere else had me shaking 😅

#idk #i just like his persona #makes my mouth water #also I had a few thoughts I'm still working to figure out about the first few scene of him in season 4 #yandere!alucard #yandere!alucard asks #castlevania #adrian tepes #alucard #alucard tepes #alucard x reader #adrian tepes x reader #alucard tepes x reader #castlvania fanfiction #gem speaks

I can’t wait any longer. I have to share him with you all. The sketch for my newest character. Please welcome Dino! Info on him below. ♥ I’m in love with him and can’t wait to add the color. Details below.

Backstory: Dino’s real name was Daniel, and his family called him Danny. He grew up in Keansburg, New Jersey. He didn’t know his father, but his mother was very religious and taught her children to be the same way. One day, his twin sister winds up kidnapped by Raiders and is killed before he could get to her as he was unexperienced and young then. In a rage, he killed the two Raiders that took her. His sister’s prayer beads were clutched in her fingers, so he took them home with him. When he got home and told his mother what happened, she mourned her daughter but wasn’t grateful for him enacting revenge. Instead, she turned her back on him and said, “There is no Heaven for you, for Heaven does not accept killers.” He left home and picked up everything he now knows while traveling on the road. Ironically, killing people was what he turned out to be good at. He settled down with the Atom Cats for a while, but they didn’t like his profession. Dino was a “specialized mercenary that only took hit jobs,” as he called it, which was his way of beating around the bush that he was an assassin. The name “Dino” was the name the Atom Cats picked for him, and the name stuck even after he left.

One day, he gets a request from some Gunners to kill someone in Goodneighbor -- a rival mercenary that recently left their employ and set up shop there. His attack on one of their operating posts and the murder of Winlock and Barnes was enough to merit his assassination. They claimed they couldn’t kill this mercenary without starting a war with Goodneighbor, a war they knew they wouldn’t win. However, if a third party were to remove him from the picture, they just might have been able to pull it off. Dino takes the contract and goes to Goodneighbor to find his target only to find out that the mercenary he was contracted to kill -- Robert Joseph MacCready -- struck his fancy in more ways than one. 

Fun fact: his gun is inspired by the Fallout: New Vegas sniper rifles because I like them a lot.

He’s often been told that his style as well as his passion for cooking is odd, but he doesn’t mind. He has always considered himself an oddity. He likes to collect pins and has a bunch on his bomber jacket now. He prefers summer months and midriffs with cuffed jeans. Fucking loves cats. Favorite food: stuffed tatoes with fresh, seasoned razorgrain bread slices.
