Wave 5 - 7 | Visual Prison 12 (FINAL) | TMM New 3 - 6
Wave 5
Speed Snail, heh.
Wave 6
The brother reminds me of Yuri (Spy x Family).
Kaspar Hauser.
Aramaki salmon.
Mirei Kiritani.
Samurai Pudding, kek.
Imabari towel. Apparently a quality sort of towel.
Wave 7
Dogashima is apparently a huge tourist spot on the Izu Peninsula, famous for its volcanic caves (known as “magmatic dikes”)…I can’t seem to find the movie “The First Step”, though.
“That was the first time I ever laid eyes on…” (Anya voice) Boobies? “Ritsuko’s beautiful body.” …same difference *sweatdrops*.
…Oh gosh.
…wouldn’t there be a gun, then? *sweatdrops*
So there is a Zombie Walk, heh.
Visual Prison 12 (FINAL)
Notably, I skipped notes for the episodes in between, because it’s been a year since this anime aired and I’m losing Funimation soon due to the merger causing me to rage-quit on that company.
Hyde…like the dude from *checks* L’arc-en-ciel.
“…our little lambs will freeze to death.” – Says you, naked Dimitri!
Anyways, I didn’t say much in the end but that was still fun. See you next time!
TMM New 3
Has there ever been a magical girl who ever loved horror? I can only think of ones who don’t like it.
Ichigo!!! Jump up there and beat Quiche up@!@!! (<- slightly angry)
Uhhhhhhhh…I know the bell is meant to be romantic, but…doesn’t that sound like robbing Ichigo of her agency???
TMM New 4
Black?! It’s clearly purple!!!
Goroawase says ichigo = 15.
…Oof (@ Mint).
TMM New 5
I didn’t think Mint had a brother…*makes Spongebob rainbow gesture* The more you know.
Also, Mint seemed to be prepared with all the clothes…maybe she was excited to have friends over and yet didn’t show it outwardly? *thonk*
TMM New 6
Just realised Mint calls Zakuro “nee-sama” in JPN, but “Queen Zakuro” in ENG.

no because really, i think stede is operating in a way he thinks will win him respect. i think he's operating in a way he thinks is the expectation. i don't think he likes it, and i don't think it's "him," but i think he enjoys the positive reinforcement from everyone around him. he's literally never had that before in his life.
he was bullied as a child for what he enjoyed. he was cast aside by his father for being himself. the crew threatened to mutiny against him or even just flat-out kill him because he was too "weak."
and here he is trying to pull himself up out of maelstrom of mistakes. "he's been a failure his whole life." he's trying to do everything he can to rectify that. he wants to be the lighthouse for his crew. he wants to be a good captain. he wants to be a good pirate. he wants to be a good lover. he wants to be something.
and he was actually getting there himself--he just didn't realize it. listening to his crew more, showing them kindness, leading them when they were lost and had no place to go, putting his own grief on hold and taking back the revenge...
he was getting there! but still, he was surrounded by those haunting expectations, by the fear that it wasn't enough.
the whole conversation between he and ed where ed is encouraging him to command respect/be tougher. the whole conversation between he and izzy where izzy says he's "never met anyone with a total lack of skills." zheng saying that she didn't "conquer china by letting people go on and on about their feelings."
not to mention the goading from ned. "once you kill me, you're a real pirate. you're not an amateur." "see? that's why he likes you. your bumbling amateur status."
it all keeps swimming circles around him, looming above his head like a shadow.
he thinks he has something more to prove. he thinks he has to be more. even though his own methods work, like ned's crew turning on him simply because stede showed kindness and understanding, all these phantoms keep telling him it isn't enough and that the other methods are more effective.
because he kills, and looks visibly shaken by it, but his crew cheers. he grabs ed by the collar despite them wanting to take things slow, and they grow intimate. he walks into jackie'z after it all, a place where he was previously banished from, and is treated like a sort of pirate hero.
it's not him. "we don't just banish people, do we? that's not us."
but it's encouraged. it's celebrated. so he thinks it should be.
