What are some of your favorite novelas, Petty? I grew up loving them too and personally I will ALWAYSSS show up for anything Fernando Colunga is in!
Anon, I'm not giving you some of my favorites. No. I'm giving you my favorite - If you know this bitch (affectionate and derogatory), you KNOW where this is going!
Tumblr media
For all the BL people, this is why @italianpersonwithashippersheart, @lukaherehelp, and I are having no qualms about Twins or Playboyy.
Telenovelas, soap operas, y lakorns have trained us well for these shenanigans and hijinks.
Why y'all can't remember twenty-two people's names is beyond me, but I had them down the first episode.
Why y'all don't like the tonal whiplash is odd to me because for me, ten minutes on one couple is TOO MUCH TIME. Six minutes, TOP, and move on to the next one.
Someone getting stabbed in one scene then the next scene being someone celebrating at a birthday party is the way I like my shows, and don't let that person be getting stabbed AT that birthday party because that is my bread and butter.
Oh, and TWINS!
Tumblr media
My favorite show includes all of these fine points, and it's the 1998 Mexican telenovela called
La usurpadora
Tumblr media
Somewhere in fictional hell, Soraya Montenegro from María la del Barrio is pissed as fuck.
Tumblr media
The plot: Paola is a rich bitch and wants to leave her husband for her evil lover but can't figure out how.
Tumblr media
¡Sorpresa, cabrona! She meets a worker who looks just like her while on vacation or some shit.
Tumblr media
Paulina is the other woman and she is too poor to contour. Therefore, rich bitch Paola convinces kind and caring Paulina to be her stand-in. Paola tells Paulina she will live the best life and be rich, while Paola can be free. It's a win-win.
¡MENTIRAS!
Paulina refuses! So Paola blackmails her into doing it, and with her mother dead, her fiance gone, and no job (since she was fired as part of Paola's blackmailing scheme), Paulina is forced to take the offer. This is like episode 2 out of 102.
In the next 100 episodes, we get forty-five other characters who are all important to the plot, amnesia, cheating, murder attempts, Paola pretending to be paralyzed, Paulina GOES TO PRISON, someone discovers they are actually twins (no duh!), and a crap ton of more drama.
Oh, and the car crash!
Tumblr media
But God got Paulina, so she good. Even in the sequel when she had cancer, pero no, she was just pregnant.
Tumblr media
The show is based on a 1971 Venezuelan telenovela that was adapted from the book La Intrusa, and has since had several remakes. One was in 2019, which made Paulina Colombian (or was she always Colombian?), and A MUSICAL THIS YEAR!
Tumblr media
It holds a 96% rating on Rotten Tomatoes because the people know this was a 🎁🎁🎁 from God, and it is not up for debate because it featured men dancing around singing Celia Cruz's "La vida es un carnaval" y Selena's "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom." This movie is the moment.
Tumblr media
The lead is Cuban actress Isabella Castillo Díaz who played in America and México's co-produced telenovela ¿Quién es quién?, which is basically the boy version of La usurpadora because of the twins plot. Do you see the theme?
Tumblr media
But back to the musical, which also features Drag Race superstar, Valentina. If you know this bitch (affectionate and derogatory), you KNOW!
Tumblr media
The 1998 version and musical both embrace the camp of it all. The music in the original 1998 version was peak telenovela, and even if you don't speak Spanish, readers, just watch the first minute of this video. I promise you it will be worth it, and it will give you three perfect examples of the *vibes* I'm always rambling about.
youtube
So, yeah, Anon, I hope this explains a lot of about my taste in BLs. I'm here for a show, not the show. Soraya understands.

ok yesterday on Twitter I saw someone talk about how there was an official 3D models for Franziska in an Ace Attorney slot machine game, so I looked it up cuz I wanted to know more about it and then I see a video of someone playing it and there’s??? A 3D model??? Of Gumshoe?!??!?
So far I’ve only found 3 (unique) moments where’s it’s used but hopefully there’s more 🙏🙏
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and then I got more curious and started watching some videos of this person playing the slot machine game, and then I realized that are a lot of characters that never appeared after the original trilogy, who have their own 3D models in this thing, like there’s a 3D model of Godot, and one of Dee Vasquez, and of Luke Atmey, and of Furio Tigre, and Mini Mimey, and the Steel Samurai/Evil Magistrate, and Von Karma, and maybe there’s more, idk, but I haven’t seen any other than these (aside from the main characters, obviously)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
there are also models of younger Ema, younger Pearl, Larry before the timeskip, and Mia using Maya’s body
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
they also recreated some of the locations, and various segments with 2D animation (I can’t tell if it’s done by the same studio that did the anime adaptation, but if it isn’t, then I’m guessing they were given the character references and designs since they look extremely similar)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
they also did a segment for Rise from the Ashes in the anime style, when they didn’t adapt that case in the actual anime
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
now, I think my biggest question after looking at all of this is: what the fuck was the budget for this????
like having to make all these 3D models and sets, a lot of whom barely appear, recreating the soundtrack and animating so many scenes, for a slot machine??? Really???
I know this probably wasn’t Capcom themselves making all these models and animation, they more than likely sourced that out to other studios
I’m just amazed that there was so much so find here, and there might be more, idk, I haven’t watched every video about this thing
(EDIT: I forgot to link the tweet I mentioned, this is it lol https://twitter.com/burgerlesbian/status/1848748265883525195?s=46&t=EHwZpbm57nOa-MPTM7kktw)

“You’re my sky” keeps popping up on my feed and I thought…… oooh sports trope, oooh the guy from La pluie…has Petty seen this?
I bet you must have done, and if so….. should I watch it? Bare in mind I feel your “trash” taste or so you call it, I don’t agree, is the same as mine so….. if you give me the go ahead. It’s next on my list.
Awaiting you guidance x
Anon, you mean the show I ranked #7 on my Top Ten Thai BLs? You mean the show that I think the sixth episode is perfect from beginning to end? You mean the show that I believe the fandom did not give its proper respect to when it aired?
Tumblr media
The show with my favorite toddler, Saur?!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THE SHOW WITH THAT COCA-COLA MONEY?!
Tumblr media
Yeah, I know her.
Tumblr media
I was only obsessed with her, writing her name on the margins of my notebook, staring at her longingly from across the room, sitting outside her window at night hoping she slept well, and being super duper creepy at her. You know, like a crazy person.
Tumblr media
But, as usual, I do NOT recommend shows. Like I would love it if absolutebl finally watched The Warp Effect, but I'm not recommending they do it because I like what I like for nefarious reasons, and not everyone feels the way I do, so all I can do is tell you that I, me, yo, Petty Pattycakes, love it. (this image is not from the show)
Tumblr media
So if you watch it and love it too, that'd be cool, but . . .
