Switzerland wins the Eurovision Song Contest 2024

Switzerland, represented by Nemo with The Code wins the 68th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 with a total of 591 points.

The jury's favorite has obtained enough advantage so that, in the face of televoting, she could finish above her most direct rivals Croatia, with Rim Tim Tagi Dim from Baby Lasagna, France, with Slimane's Mon Amour and Ukraine, with Alyona Alyona & Herry Heil and your Teresa & Maria.

So, see you next year in Switzerland with many questions to resolve.

Will Geneva be the venue in 2025? Or maybe Zurich?

Will Israel participate next year? And The Netherlands?

Will the EBU investigate Israel's strange and bulky result in the televoting?

FINAL FANTASY XIII (2009)

⚠️Spoiler alert if you haven't seen it yet⚠️

Sweet dreams my children, perhaps Nora and Efrim could not return to their Dofus, but they will be together in their dreams. Dreaming that they are back home, playing and dancing in the flower meadows, No worries, just the two of them, like before.

To calm my emotional emptiness, I imagined that the great Dragon came to save them and help them with anything, that they would return to the world of twelve with Nora and Efrim already cured and the great dragon.

I will miss the Wakfu series, the excitement for every Friday night for a new chapter, I cried too much. But it was a great ending.

As An IzuOcha Shipper…

…them not ending up together isn’t the problem.

Horikoshi taking the “leave it up to interpretation” approach and then proceeding to COMPLETELY AVOID ADDRESSING their relationship status is the problem.

Horikoshi failing to tie up that one last loose end for Uraraka’s character arc (not closing off her feelings) is the problem.

Again, I ship IzuOcha. Still do, because I’m stubborn. Would I have liked for them to end up together, even if it was only a somewhat blatant implication that could be handwaved? Obviously. But you know what? Maybe I would be upset if the story went out of its way to explicitly de-confirm any chance of Midoriya and Uraraka being a romantic pairing, but I’d at least respect it and understand it a lot more if the story let Midoriya and Uraraka actually talk about this, or at the very least SHOWED US them talking about this. I’d understand if Uraraka completed her character arc by having a heart to heart with Midoriya and telling him that her feelings have changed, her priorities have changed, and Midoriya understands and they remain good friends. Let’s be real, romance isn’t Horikoshi’s strong suit, despite his many attempts to leave romantic implications throughout the series. I’d completely understand if he just had Midoriya and Uraraka talk and they didn’t end up together, because at least then it still provides both of their characters with closure.

But no, that’s too simple. Let’s just “leave it up to interpretation,” because it clearly wasn’t that important, right?

Well, as many people on the internet have already brought up, if it wasn’t so important, why did you spend so much time putting emphasis on it? Why did you have Uraraka, up until the FINAL WAR, have her crush on Midoriya be a crucial part of her character (it wasn’t her only character trait, mind you, but it was still important)? Why did the penultimate chapter have the class come to comfort Uraraka and tell her that they can talk to her… and then come the next chapter, Uraraka apparently hasn’t done anything regarding her supposed crush on Midoriya? For literal YEARS!?

…see, this isn’t even a shipping problem anymore. This is a character problem.

Horikoshi, for whatever reason, chose not to include a romance for the main character and his supposed love interest. And again, that’s fine, not every story needs to be a romance. Two problems with it here though (well, one problem and an observation):

1) Choosing to not at least address the romantic subplot with a “I think we’re better off as friends” encounter, thus actually concluding the subplot and providing a sense of closure, not only leaves the result feeling underwhelming and frustrating, but also actively damages Uraraka’s character arc. We can have her address the problem that caused people like Toga to exist, but heaven forbid she talks about romance with Midoriya.

2) Despite his supposed aversion to romance, Horikoshi still went out of his way to give Gentle and La Brava wedding rings… he’s willing to establish a side romantic pairing without bringing too much attention to it, but he can’t be bothered to do something similar for the arguable MAIN pairing? It’s the “Togata has special clothes so he doesn’t end up buck naked, but Hagakure’s still gotta go commando” debacle again…

I’ma go ahead and wrap this up ‘cause I don’t wanna keep y’all much longer, but like… being optimistic, this ending was… functional. I’ve got my problems with it, obviously, I don’t think it was BAD bad… but it certainly wasn’t good. It works. Barely. And it’s ‘cause of stuff like this.

Midoriya and Uraraka didn’t need to end up together, truly. All Horikoshi had to do was put the smallest amount of effort and give us something of substance, something with closure. Instead, we got what we got.

I get that he was exhausted and wanted the manga to be over… but that excuse only holds up for so long.

Bueno, mis últimas horas de estabilidad mental.

"La verás con otra gente, con otro pelo, con otra falda. Pasarán años, la verás más madura, menos niña, más vivida o a lo mejor más muerta. Pasarán años y descubrirás que ni el tiempo, ni la ropa, ni el peinado, ni siquiera la vida tienen la capacidad de cambiar una mirada." Entenderás que un gran amor no se olvida, no se sustituye, no tiene final. Un gran amor perdura hasta el último respiro. Leregi Renga
