trigun book club :D a great reason for re reading the manga and now more people will yell with me into the skies :D
my thoughts on the 1st half of volume 1 (chap 1 - 6) below
chap 1:
-the babygirl :3
-maybe im reading too much into it but i like the page where millie and Meryl are introduce cuz it gives them attention (and not in a sexualized way :D). they're imposing their presence in that unusual place and I think that's cool
-i like the people decided to divide among themselves part of the money, good for them
chap 2:
-ah yes, contrast my beloved
-ily millie
-i like that scene with the women pointing at vash every time I see it. the situation just sucks for everyone. the reader isn't mad at the women for pointing at him not mad at vash for not letting himself get killed. its also nice to see a lot of vash's personality on that. he lowkey tries to gaslight the women by saying he wouldn't want kids to see them with guns, he listens to them when they explain why they need the money, he defends himself when one of them is about to shoot and he doesn't fight them but tells them "I hear ya but I gotta go" and tears while doing so cuz the whole situation just sucks cuz if he could do both things (give up for them and keep looking for "him" he would)
chap 3
-WHY IS VASH SO STUPID/ affectionate
-TRIO TIMEEEEEEEEE :D THEY ARE ALL SO COOL AND HAPPY
chap 4
-i just love people ruining vash's plans when he wants to leave in a cool "I was never here" fashion
-"thats more than i deserved" :c
-vash trusting kids 100% without any question my beloved
chap 5
-nightow pls i wanna know WHOS TALKING
-yknow i think it was the fact that vash said "our arrival" that gave it away. i think a normal person with a normal lifespan would have just said "I wonder if our existence on this planet is a good thing" but maybe that's just me
-i like vash wearing casual clothes in his dream. the red coat is more like a battle uniform
-rem :3
-interesting that in the dream she falls down instead of him. i never noticed that before but ofc she is the one that falls down in the dream. it could have been vash but I feel that would have given the dream another meaning entirely. wow
-aw nononono dont cry :c nooooo
chap 6
-oh man you should have been faster with that lever
-i dont think they pay you enough for that but I respect it
-YEAHHHH VASH TO THE RESCUE
-"the scent of a woman" ok weirdo
-yes vash smack that child's head >:3

eta: the third to last option says 500-999 shhh
how to find the number: use this page to calculate the total number of notes your original posts have gotten, then divide by the number of original posts (and round the result however you see fit). here's mine as an example:
so i divide 142,200 by 626 and get 227.16, which i then round to 227 average notes per post

Why doesn't the justice league know about Amity Park?
Okay so it's been a bit sonce I watched the show but one of the things in DpxDC is the anti-ecto acts, which I love, but correct me if I'm wrong, I THINK ??? they only show up in reality trip? SO:
What if Danny, when using the gauntlet to undo everything, also got rid of the Anti-Ecto acts? but this is babys first time editing reality so he uh
Fucks Up A Lil'.
As a result when Danny used the reality gauntlet to wipe the AEA from existence he accidentally wiped Amity Park from perception.
A big 'nothing matters over here' jedi mind trick, and now no ones looking at Amity.
So, the Justice League actually WERE looking into and monitoring the situation in Amity, but when the perception filter closed them off, all of that suddenly went ignored.
This is noticed when someone (Alfred, Dick, Tim, literally anyone) realises theres just. A BIG dusty pile of case files semi abandoned somewhere in the cave when going through a (time period)ly cave cleaning.
They put it down because it's Not Important.
They come back to finish the cleaning the next day and do the exact same thing, but there's nothing to actually distract them this time and it pings as weird. Because why would case files be not important? They are by definition important, because only things flagged as important go into case files.
They try to get someone else to read it, because as long as they don't read the information in the file, they don't put it down.
That person goes to read it, gets a line in and then says something like 'that isn't important' and goes to leave. Person A pushes it and person B ALSO catches on.
Que the Batfam trying to figure out hey, what the fuck actually?
Meanwhile, how is Amity fairing? Canon compliant everything's going alright? Or have knock on effects to No One Look Here started to show?

Everybody talking about how Cecil is peak Sexy Tumblr Man bc he's Skinny White Guy in a Suit
But nobody talking about how Cecil was also the catalyst for anti-Skinny White Guy in a Suit!
By the time WTNV and Cecil rolled around in 2014 people were sick of skinny white guys in suits!!! They wanted something different! and it sparked a lot of talk around the default white depictions of characters who didn't have canon designs.
There's this image by zenamiarts that depicts a lot of the popular human Cecil designs that started popping up as a result. You started seeing Cecil with long braided hair!! Cecil with a walking stick and chronic pain! There was Cecil who was a just giant floating eyeball. Cecil who could change his entire appearance at a whim. A very popular ask blog where Cecil was a Silkie Chicken. (Newer more modern designs also showcase the eccentric fashion Cecil is now known to wear.)
i mean Fuck. Cecil Palmer was the first male character I saw drawn in a skirt!! he was the first character I saw drawn as gender nonconforming and he got treated and drawn like it was a normal thing and i will never forget that.
was it the perfect depiction of diversity? nah. & it sadly seems like a lot of the surviving artwork of Cecil from 2013-2016 is 'Skinny White Guy in a Suit'. (the 2018 tumblr exodus might have something to do with that :( )
But!!! Cecil really did open the door for future audio drama character designs. (looking at u mr. jonathan the magnus archives)
Cecil is mr tumblr sexyman and always will be thank u
