It took me ages, but, here we are. I watched Army of the Doomstar.
I kept putting it off, in no small part because... That's it. This was the finale, there's nothing else to come. No more.
Also because we dearly wanted to watch it together with @birbwell since it's this show that brought us together originally and which built up our friendship, so - what a way to go full circle around the Wheel of the Klok, right?
Since 2011 I've been clinging to this show, and for ten years after Doomstar Requiem there was nothing, and now we've been blessed with an epic, beautiful, powerful tale that ties loose ends in the best way possible, and that's All there ever will be.
Just as much as this story was about the band learning to appreciate what they have and appreciate the fans, this movie was made with Metalocalypse fans in mind and it really shows. SO many little references to fanon things, and it was still done tastefully and respectfully of the characters and I just. Man. What a love letter to us and to this long lasting series.
Seeing where MTL came from and where it ended up, it's so touching and amazing... Brendon built up his universe and decided to get serious and put so much heart into this silly serial shitpost, and what a Culmination for all this labor of love.
Idk if I have the Right words for the emotions I feel really. A mix of amazing glee, of peace, and grief, and it's all very Good.
Anyway. The End.
Chirp.
