Drifting Home
I’ve just finished watching Drifting Home and i am absolutely shattered. I cried like 5 times??
The whole movie just felt so? I don’t know how to describe it. It’s just, it hurt so much but it also made me feel happy? The movie felt like a dream idk. And all the characters are so good, like actually, all of their friendships made me sob in the best way possible. Especially Natsume, Kousuke and Noppo’s bond???? It was so heart wrenching, like?? Genuine shivers.
The story in itself is also REALLY interesting. The whole concept of an entire building suddenly floating on the sea and no one know how it happened? And everyone seems to see stuff from their memories? And again, the relationships between the characters are so well done. Like, they do act and feel like 11 year olds, and that just made it 100 times more intense? methinks. Like they’re so young, they’re literal babies. /affectionate
And also can we talk about the ANIMATION????? Absolutely fucking gorgeous, i’ll never get over it. It had this Studio Ghibli atmosphere in some moments, especially this one!!
The color palettes, the lights, everything!!
Honestly i suck at reviews, simply because most of the time i can’t describe how i’m feeling, but yeah, this movie was so good, genuienly. It made me feel so sad for so many reasons but a good kind of sad? Is that even a thing?
YES also the character designs??? They all look so cute ahh! My favorite one was definitely Noppo! Second fav might be Taishi?? THEY ALL LOOK GREAT IT’S HARD TO CHOOSE!!!!
Btw i’m pretty sure Yuzuru’s voice actor is also Izuku’s??? WHICH MADE ME MELT especially since they kinda have the same personality??
Um idk what else to add haha. I could add on about everyone’s relationship with each other and the whole found family trope that i absolutely adore, and how they’re all blushing all the time which is also super adorable!!! And uh Noppo pains me like i love him so much he’s my blorbo!!!! He needs to be hugged. THE LOVE HE HOLDS FOR KOUSUKE AND NATSUME PAINS ME SO MUCH!!! It’s soooo i don’t even know anymore. I think i should stop writing or i’ll go on forever and no one will want to read all that!! Sorry!!

BELIEVE
myself
for absolutely ridiculous Wolfwood Lover Moments. sure yes he made me cry 5 times by himself, a feat that no other character could Ever hope to beat. yes ive long known i love him.
but
im watching episode 9 of 98 & wolfwood got introduced. and they had a mirror to the coin thing from the manga, just with the food bars.
this moment.
it's not the exact same, but it's close enough that it just KILLED ME and i was just kinda losing my shit. slapping my hand on the couch. banging my fist on my leg. but it wasnt enough, i had too many emotions, so i just. kinda.
so ok im on my computer, sitting with the side of the couch to my left. and i . i went leaning to my left. and then i just. kept. going.
I DID A SUMMERSAULT. ON ACCIDENT. OFF MY COUCH. BECAUSE OF WOLFWOOD.
i ended up on my back with my ass stuck on my TV table just laughing so hard i was nearly choking on my spit. and i had to shimmy my way back upright bc there was No Room because i was ass over teakettle on the fucking floor
and KEEPING IN MIND im watching this anime with a friend!!!!!! they heard me losing my fucking Shit & only when i managed to garble out that i Fell Off My Fucking Couch did they know what was going on
im. utterly amazed at myself. if there was ever any doubt about me losing my love for wolfwood, this has proven that that is NOT happening

Actually, I don't think I'll be altering it, necessarily. I think that what I'm going to do is exactly what the show did - some Fuckshit that allows People to Come Back. Because Altea randomly reappears, and I think that Allura's energy should be allowed to come back too. The episode is titled The End Is the Beginning. I call bullshit that the lions just DISAPPEAR. I call bullshit that there is no more need for a defender of the universe. ALL realities were reestablished, and we had SOLID PROOF that all it took was one person, one event, for everything that happened to happen again. There would still be war. There would still be need for something like Voltron, even with the Atlas and the next generation of fighters. Even if it's not the current paladins - Voltron shouldn't just disappear. That ending is dumb, sorry.
That being said - holy shit. I genuinely loved that whole experience and I feel kind of bad for the people who let expectations and silly plot points blot out the whole show for them. Was it dumb at times? Yeah. Do I agree with the way that things went and how it ended? No! But that doesn't mean the show itself sucks or anything like that. This is the whole reason fandom spaces exist, or, part of the reason: so people can love the source material, and change what they don't, if need be. Like, that's the whole reason fanfiction exists IMO.
So, uh, anyway. If anybody has a pirated copy of VLD just lying around and uh....wants to just kick that my way in case it ever gets demolished off the internet.......i would love you forever and ever LMAO.
Wow. Just wow.
