#I love this anime sm I've rewatched it way too much

THIS IS MY LIKES AND DISLIKES OF CHAOS THEORY ⚠️Spoilers below cut⚠️

When i first finished this season, I too like some people, was skeptical about it. I get why some people say its bad, I just thought it was very different from cc. At points the characters didin't feel like themsleves, the way some of them were written and the designs gave me a real hard time to get used to them. Also i felt as if it was just too much to process at times so i rewatched it and my final answer is that its a good show the pacing is incredeble, the plot, the suspence and character development. i just had a hard time getting used to everything new? Ig. I'm still doubting whether its a 10 but sure thing is that it was a very good first season its a easy 9/10. So here are the thinks i liked abt it:

-THE WAY THEY POTRAYED EVERYONES TRAUMA/STRUGGLES , Sammy having anxiety, Yaz overcoming her ptsd, and KENJI. MY BOY. That must have been the best breakdown i've seen in animated series. Whoever wrote that scene. Wow. It was the best thing in the whole show honestly. His vision gtting blurry, having truble breathing. The panick. Wow. I CANNOT SAY THIS LOUD ENOUGH.

-Ben and Sammy duo? Hello? Im srry to say but you might just be better than Yaz and Ben duo. Idk i really loved them.

- "Benjamin."

- Showing Yaz is doing better. Despite her ongoing struggles, she has clearly grown and matured the last 6 years, and the way she calmed Sammy in the sinking van? Ig all those therapy sessions and college paid off. That scene is a clear illustration of the progress she has made. I mean sammy did say "i can tell shes still struggling" but there wasnt really a clear scene of her getting stuck in place as she used to. So my guess is that it was just Sammys anxiety and the fact that they didint talk much. Bc then Sammy was surprised how she kept herselve together. So yeah

-YASAMMY. NOTHING MORE TO ADD.

-UM SAMMYS CHARACTER?? HELLO? GLOW UP, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, i loved her sm. She moved up to my top 3.

And her anxiety? It was so well shown too

-the fight between Sammy and Yaz felt so natural and not at all forced. They both had valid points and in the end they did understand each other and were on the same page.

-Ben being Ben in almost every episode

- Yasmina's "boo."

-Brooklynns design?? Majestic to say the least.

- ingore what i said ealrier abt the acting out of character. They do remind themsleves they just grew

Well, all except Ben...

-Kenjis new voice actor, he did a real good job, as much as it doesn't sound like him, he really captured some emotional scenes very well.

- The robot lady. THEY REALLY SAID TAKE A WOMAN AND MAKE HER CREEPY ASF. I was genunanly creeped out. And the detail that at the ranch if u listen closesly u can hear the whistle. Hell nah that was scary.

-Benrius Ben and Darius friendship, okay actually u can't tell me u didint feel it too, the tention between ben and Darius cmon we all know what u are Ben stop making up girlfriends in Europe

-Brooklynn turning bad, or from what we are told worked for bad people ig. Personally as much as it shocked me, im sure theres a good reason as to why and i cant wait to hear more abt in season 2.

-I can now undertand what everyone meant in reviews saying "its more mature" not only in the more death and dinos but it woyud be kind of confusing for a younger audience to undertsand some stuff in this show.

-I really liked Daniels kon death, maybe it wasn't necesarry but im all in for that dark death scene.

-Lastly the comment Sammy makes when Ben asks how bumpy got pregnant, and the yazs smirk. Gurl i was suprised they added that but i loved it

Now, the things that i didint like and why:

- First of all, Darius being in love with brooklynn. I mean i get it but i also dont get it. In my opinion, there shouldn't have been a different reason as to why Darius was the most effected by her death. They were close and she died. Its okay to be really effected by someones death and not bc u liked them, and i also do believe that the reason for him not showing up the night she "died" should have been smth more serious. Then again i get it bc now he felt a lot more guilt bc it was for a not so important reason he didint show up and thats why he didint tell anyone. Well axtually it isnt that bad, but i just felt it was forced for the plot. This again could be bc i started to like kenlynn and now they turned the tables completly but sure.

-Brooklynns voice actor. I just couldn't connect her to brooklynn? She sounded a lot different, not a major bad thing it was just hard to get used to.

-Ben having a gf, or supposedly having one, u telling me this man has a gf:

I thought it funny but yk that man is a homosexual

- and lastly, Brooklynn being alive. This might sound bad but it made sense for her to die. And i was kinda lamed out that she wasnt dead. (Pls ironically enough, just weeks ago i begged for her to be alive.) But like the way everyone suffered bc of her death, going throught the 5 stages of grief, and the way the show was played. It just would have been better if she died, all those flashbacks, the emotional moments, i mean its not gonna be the same when i rewatch it bc i know shes alive. Anyways enough abt this.

Actually i have nothing more to add to my "bad stuff" list but i might come up with smth later. Bc i will be rewatchibg it obviously. Ig lastly i just wanted more episodes how dare they cutting the season of right there.

erin!! is there anything you watched this year that really stuck with you? (In a good way :3)

THABK U FOR ASKIMG ME THIS NOW HEHE

I feel like I've forgotten all the films I've seen this year so bear w me 😭 and if I do remember one I'm not sure if I watched it this year 💀

OK

I'm not sure this would be considered in a good way, but I watched Snatch and it immediately became one of my faves. I think it was more to do with the creative shots and editing of scenes (which I loved) and some of the character's lines, than the actual story, but I remember thinking about it for days on end afterwards. Actually no the story was also a banger too, but I remember thinking 'man there are so many characters in this movie'. I definitely want to rewatch it tho!

I also remember a short clip from the evangelion anime (not the whole show or even episode though help) that i saw on youtube, really resonated w me! It was from the last episodes of the season, where it becomes more philosophical and a bit cooked, and there was dialogue between Shinji, Asuka and Misato - and I felt like i deeply understood what they were talking about!! Anyway this isnt even a movie it was like a 2 minute clip 😭 but! It's made me want to rewatch the eva anime :)

I watched Zoolander for the first time too! It made me realise, how good it is to watch a silly movie that has a plot but, it's just silly. Anyway I was surprised by how much I liked it 🩷✨️

I HOPE THIS WAS ALSO INTERESTING FOR YOU 😭 because I can't really remember what I watched this year (I think i watched most of the star wars movies in the first 6 months and some other stuff but it didnt stick with me yknow) anyways

Thank u sm for the ask btw!!!

[ellecdc]

again, not to be a bother pls feel free to skip over this one if you have too many asks to get through!! i rambled way too much xmksdjjk 😭 (bonus question + reverse matchmaker but im curious abt who you would ship yourself with?!?!! (i'd guess barty or james!?!)) sending so much love 🎀💖

"because you didn't want to be a bother" BESTIE......you don't bother me please for the love of god send the asks and the comments, I'm begging you [especially if you're gonna be a cutie pie]

the parasites in you hahahaha ok so I want to say Sirius because of the slytherin/opposites attract kind of thing but I also think you guys have a lot in common re: music lovers. also he would love to frolic in the woods with you.

It also gives me Barty vibes? Because your music is so all-over the place [in the best way] which is so Barty-core tbh. I think he too would like to frolic in the woods with you <3

-> as for your question; I've always considered myself a Remus girlie. but I was asked this earlier on in my celebration and people had me answer the questions and they also shipped me with James and Lily!! so that's fun you're adding Barty hahaha

thanks for playing xx

Top 5 (or 10 or however many you wanna do) Sailor Moon story arcs?

I'll see if I can make it to 10 :'D

The whole 2nd half of Sailor Moon S (basically once they introduce Hotaru and onwards) is so good, I've been thinking about spending a whole day just to rewatch it.

Sailor Moon Stars episodes 1-6 (90's anime) - a neat little filler arc that ties up Queen Nehelenia's story (and giving her some new lore on the way!) and seeing all the senshi come together to beat her is good.

Live Action Sailor Moon, the whole thing. Peak magical girl tokusatsu.

2nd half of Sailor Moon season 1 (90's Anime) - Once Sailor Jupiter and the hunt for the rainbow crystals get introduced it always felt like a big shift in the tone. I like it.

Stars Arc (manga) - I cannot tell you the emotional impact these 11 chapters of shoujo comics did to preteen-age me. I cannot wait to finally see them animated with sound.

Dream Arc - both the manga and the SM Eternal movies, *banging fists on the table* Princess Dress Princess Dress Princess Dress

Sailor Moon R movie - the first Sailor Moon thing I owned in Japanese. I still stand by that if you ever want to introduce Sailor Moon to someone THIS is the taster you want to give them. Everything good about Sailor Moon is here.

Sailor Moon SuperS - I think this season gets too much hate, I love all the fun character moments in it. Also contains my favorite episode where the squad all tries to figure out who Chibiusa is dating. Ikuhara's humor is in full swing.

Sailor Moon R Ali & An Arc - Not just a filler arc, THE filler arc that will leave you weeping. Also full of fun character bits.

1st half of Sailor Moon season 1 - there's something deeply warm & nostalgic to me about the 1st chunk of episodes where it's just Usagi, Ami & Rei that I don't think has been or can be replicated. There's episodes I rewatch & I'm just transported back to 10 year old sleepovers trying to watch the dubs on late night anime channels

[la-cocotte-de-paris]

Omg your jackass/wildboyz journey is making me sooo happy!! I was really late to the party watching their stuff because my parents would never have allowed it but I was curious last year and now I’m fully obsessed with them. Steve-O is the ultimate dumb idiot hottie and I love him 😅 anyway thank you for making me feel validated, I love it!!

ahhh glad to hear someone doesn't mind seeing that on their dash ahahahah! -_-" :P yeah i remember seeing random parts of jackass as a kid but like i think it was part of the first movie (i was at my friend's house who had older siblings LOL)?? maybe some of the other movies too on dvd/online but i don't remember now. but yeah i got into it for the first time properly during my summer depression of 2022 haha and now it's having a bit of a renaissance, only this time i'm watching their spinoffs too! i LOOOOOVE Wildboyz sm!!!! Chris and Steve-O are probs my faves out of the crew (i do love johnny too bc duh but like the homoeroticism Chris and Steve-O...hilarious. also animals and travel) <3333 This time i think i can say i'm turning into a bit of a fangirl... :P

Currently I'm watching Viva La Bam but idk, just doesn't hit the same imo (I do love seeing Ape, Phil and Don Vito onscreen tho), but it's still fun. I think partially I find the sound mixing a little too much for my liking in whatever version of the episodes i'm watching, so it does lessen the enjoyment for me lmao (like the music is just too loud and abrupt to hear/focus on whatever else is happening onframe or when someone is speaking??). I wish they would do a new Wildboyz, even just one mini season or special (without bothering animals ofc).

Originally when I first really watched the movies back in 2022 I liked Bam but now on rewatching idk, I didn't really see what I saw back then (he kinda came across as annoying now, especially that I saw him in the tv series this time too). He was cuter w no facial hair tho. Either way, I think my newer view of him is all a way of showing how I've grown and changed as a person since then, haha. But I do hope he gets the help he needs and gets better, seems like he's been going through a lot lately.

[n0n-sen-se]

A little about me then!! Sorta dumping here sorry if it's a lot!!

MITSURI MY BELOVED!!

If Mitsuri has 1000 fans I'm one of them if she has 1 that's me if she has 0 I'm DEAD. Hate when mfs say she's only for fan service my bae deserves better then that </3

Honestly Gyutaro being a fave of yours is so real, I heart gyutaro he's just JUST

Sigh <3

His waist, his eyes!! His everything!!Make my heart go Ba bump.

Overall I gotta say out of everyone Mitsuri Rengoku and Sanemi are my faves. Stressful days lead me to reading fics about them and watching episodes where they star and suddenly I feel like I'm living life on easy mode.

For least favourites it's gotta be Douma, Gyoko and perhaps Akaza I have a love hate relationship with Akaza... Douma is just EW. It's Douma, he's disgustingly pretty and his overall.. Thing. Is just no. Gyoko is slimy #1 Gyoko hater.

I've gotten sm shade for not liking Akaza. His backstory got me ripping my heart out, he's handsome too I love his design. But he killed my homeboy Rengoku I can't let that slide.

Fave anime Is also Demon slayer!! However the list of anime I watched aren't really as diverse as I'd wish they were but I'm always busy not much time to watch shows. I wanna rewatch JJK it's popular and I wanna fan girl over it too like everyone else.

Also Maki? Smash. Also would I be judged if I said I acc find Sukanas real form attractive? Everything about him is just heart eyes I apologise in the least apologetic way.

I also write for kny on my main account still getting the hang of writing, very autistic I hate cheese but I love I also love it on everything, my current goal is to become one of those earthy tree hugging black girls with locs, crystals in her hair and an insane amount of crystal and shell bracelets it hurts your wrists I've achieved one of those things listed </3 I think that's all from me.

THAT WAS A LONG RANT SORRY might be a lot of spelling mistakes woops

- 🍷

Don't worry about the ask being too long, its really fun talking answering these and talking about demon slayer in general!

And honestly everything you said is SO relatable.

I know a bunch of people personally who hate on the female characters in kny just for being a love interest. (Why can't the female characters be the love interest too in this scenario?) Seems understandable but also a little (a lot) unfair. Mitsuri is a perfectly adorable, strong female character that completely held her own! I really adore/love the way she loves everyone! (-ε- )

And yeah, I have a soft-spot for the underrated weird/quiet side characters </3 its why I can never find anything written for them sadly ( ._.)

Rengoku & 'Nemi are such strong characters, the few scenes we had with rengoku are actually so comforting! Sleeping on the train with Tanjiro, he just physically, seems so warm in those scenes!

I actually haven't gotten that far into JJK (spoilers included) so I don't actually know what Sukuna's 'true' form is but lets just say, from your description. . . im interested. . .

I'm imagining something like how Rika looks?

For writing: just keep at it! I feel like I've been writing on and off for a few years and still doubt myself, then I look back at things I've never posted like: This masterpiece??? My magnum opus?? Where's part 2??? It's really funny actually.

And yes, buy those crystals thatsadamnedamazinggoaltohave

[maybeabird]

alright, I have more thoughts now.

I really love how the la didn't make Luffy super emo and edgy like a lot of live action adaptations make their cheerful main characters (I think thats mainly because la adaptations are of cartoons that were watched by kids and the people adapting them think they need to make the characters more gritty to appeal to the now older audience, but that's a whole thing). from what I can tell (again, I've never watched the anime so tell me if I'm wrong) they kept the cheerful characters cheerful, but nami and Zoro seem emo-er?? idk, and I'm not complaining, theyre great and are probably my favorite characters (so far).

speaking of nami, I really like how they portrayed her relationship with luffy. from what I can tell, she was a sort of love-interest-y person(??) in the anime, simply because she was the only girl in the crew for a while, and so it would "make sense" for her to be the love interest to the main character. I'm not saying that's what the original creator was going for, but that's the impression I got, just from what I've seen. heteronormativity, amirite? anyways, (I'm going to try to explain this the best I can) she seems more like just his best friend, or whatever. like, she's portrayed in a way that, if she was a dude, people would ship her with luffy because of their bond and how much they clearly care about each other, not just cause she's a girl and he's a guy. idk if that makes sense, but they have the sort of cheerful-and-sunshine-y with smart-and-done-with-everyones-bullshit relationship dynamic that sports anime protagonists have ig. in my opinion.

that being said, I def don't ship them, I hc Luffy as aroace, but, as I said in the prev post; he has a homoerotic friendship with his entire crew and koby.

alright moving on- the villain characters in this show are so entertaining?? like I literally love them sm, especially the clown dude, he's so funny cause he's so pathetic and he's my wife now ok? shanks fumbled so hard with him fr. the cat-villain-dude's henchmen are so fun too, they should like, kill their slimy boss and open a restaurant or smth.

speaking of how the villains are so fun AND how they kept cheerful characters cheerful is how they kept the anime-ness of the show intact very well. what I mean by that is they kept the ridiculousness and the fun colors and stuff while making it a pretty good quality remake. like, they didn't make it all gritty american action movie, for lack of a better term. and the costume designers rlly went off when making the characters still have their fun, recognizable features while still being realistic, in a sense?? cause if I'm going to be honest, anime character design is more meant for cosplay then live action. and that's not a bad thing, anime character design is fun and I love it, but it can make the whole show look low quality if ur doing a live action remake and don't adapt the costumes. the one piece live action did a good job of this and it looks really visually interesting without being too much, or just plain ridiculous.

well in conclusion, I guess, the live action is really fun and pretty entertaining to watch. I'm not one for watching shows and stuff, but I'll definitely watch more and probably rewatch it when I'm done:))

(I have a lot of thoughts on usopp, he's my #1 fav at the moment, but my brain is slowly turning into soup so I may just write those later)

anyways, tell me if I got stuff wrong about the anime, cause again, I've never watched it and also tell me if this makes any sense because I basically just word vomited and didn't reread it after. thanks for reading my rambling:))

so I've been watching the live action one piece (sue me, but I'm not watching the entire anime, I have a life) and I've concluded that luffy is indeed aroace and he also has a homoerotic friendship with all of his crew, including nami and koby. dont ask me how that works.

also, the clown guy is one of my favorite characters, not because I like him, but because he's so fun, you know? his actor really went off, tbh.

also I literally love nami and zoros friendship, their dynamic is so fun.

I'll probably rb later with more thoughts that are more coherent but this is all I got rn as I only just started episode 3.

[awigglycultist]

Just rewatched TCBoB! Thoughts below cut

"Spotlight up on an actual teenage boy"

I love MC, he's trying so hard, he's so hyper and excited

And Honk

"we hooked up last summer but who didn't"

Love the small details of these characters, stuff that isn't super important the story but is still mentioned. Like ofc Cole being trans and Eric and Cole having divorced parents.

"and my estrogen pills"

"this is Bethanne, she's... This is Bethanne!"

MC's freak out is so great and and funny

Oh also love that anime maniacs is one of the groups in the song

"especially to be here with my fellow seniors!... Who are no longer listening to me..."

"we hooked up last summer but who didn't"

Eric looks at Max's ass

Wtf is Eric doing while Kris and Max are talking

The Vomsquad™

"any choice is better that no choice except a bad choice"

"don't try to blackmail the casting guy.. not that I've tried"

I fucking love Max bursting out into song ready to go not realizing he was supposed to go into the theatre

"heres the thing about acting Mark" "Max"

*comes in dancing* "biffed it! :)" *clapping*

Hngg poor Bethanne I love her so much and I relate to her so much too

"pretend your Magic Mike and let your dangler swim free"

I fucking love the dance call, watching everyone mess up in their own way

"ooww my ankle" "your fine."

"I don't wanna step on anyones toes but this is kinda borning now" I literally gasped the first time I saw that part, especially bc I had just been talking about the Starship rehearsal story early

Love, Eric always hiding his emotions, love Chill, love Chill going from "I stay chill when I'm nervous about theatre" to "I hide my emotions when my parents get divorced"

"Max I hope you learn to love yourself! :). Go goats!!"

"THAT'S ABSOLUTELY A FUCKING LIIEEE"

"I don't wanna be one of those characters that disappears and you don't see for the rest of the act" seriously 10/10 joke

Body Language > I Don't Dance

Body Language is a song that you really do just wanna get up and dance too

I love Max and Jean and I would love to see them get together and future version of tcbob

"huh that actor looks like my wife"

Also again so glad we got a Lauren and James dance number

"this Troy Bolton bitch"

Oh!! Also I love how they incorporate the actual tcbob scripts in the first act as the characters holding the Matrix the Musical script

Lovee Cole and Bethanne sm

"the kind only a highschooler could pull off"

Love MC coming out of nowhere

Also love MC being aware of the audience and winking at the camera

"Jean and Max were ready for you" "body language! :D" ".. Alright"

Garrett is the best I love him the sweetest guy he cares about Alex so much

"yeah... Yeah.. I was there with you. Who is this for?"

Max and Jean definitely messed up the scene together bc they were distracted by dancing

"I'M HAVING A HEART ATTACK" "no your not" I CAN'T BREAATTHH"

Love how Cole gets ready to leave not even realizing her name wasn't said

Kris is annoying and selfish af but I love him

"unprofessional." ">:0"

"I would give you standing O but I'd be out of frame"

Love Daniel's clapping after the songs, his face is literally :D but irl

How dare he not wait for his wife

But also how does it take so long to feed a meter or pee

Love Max just hugging and picking up MC. Max doesn't forget about who got him to where is he now

"I'm begging you. I need this.... I HATE YOU DAD I HATE YOU"

Kris is so mad

Eric is just so annoyed and feed up with everyone saying their show could be on broadway

"since this fantasy I'm 10 ft tall with a million dollars!"

"that dumptrack of an ass"

"wanna take a dip? 👀 :)" Max definitely likes Jean

Why is Eric just listing all the drinks so funny to me

Ugh Bethanne and Cole <3

"hey you can't wear that out of the theatre! Thats a rental" "oh I thought it was mine to keep. It had a peice of tape with my name on it"

"you had to be there Jean"

*puts sock on head* "what's the number for 911!?" *moving hands around wildly*"Well it's not pizza! Sorry sorry sorry!"

"INTO THE UNKNOOOWN!!"

"he does the most annoying thing someone could do at party. He begins to strum a guitar"

"I've never heard of them! That sounds amazing!"

"do I miss high school? Not one bit! Who even asked me that? So random.."

"if gain to much weight their not cool with that. They'll fire me"

"I will never forget that smell it was fucking awful"

"hAlarious"

Kris slowing walking up and then slowing backing up

How does everyone believe that Alex actually made a scavenger hunt like it was so obviously joke guys-

Love Alex <3 and Cueless is so beautiful

*Alex absolutely chugging the alcohol*

*camera zooms in on Joey's ass*

"I wish that Cole and I were twins and that I ate her in the womb"

"hot goss gimme gimme that goss gimme gimme that goss that's hot"

Love how everyone is spreading rumours about each other. It starts with Kris and Eric trying to spread rumours about Cole but instead everyone starts spreading rumors about everyone.

I love Alex's drunk breakdown

Max's warmup freak out is hilarious

"here is something the other kids out there aren't ready here: if you do something you love you'll never work another day in your life"

"that's not what I saw out there Beth" "anne" "and!"

No one:.. Theo: *trying to fucking hook up with everyone*

"wait.. Are you a scientologist?"

I Suck Reprise is something I needed to hear

"mind if I vape out here?" "you vape now?" "I saw a billboard telling me not to vape so naturally"

"ew what is that? Cotton candy crush or some shit are you five?"

"dreamcasting is actually very problematic and lot of people have told me it hurts their feelings" "your talking about yourself Joshua"

UGH BETHANNE AND COLE <33

"that was really fucking girlboss what you said" "ew don't call me girlboss"

"what do even a friend do? Am I alien? Am I a girlboss?"

*Alex still having a breakdown* Theo: "mm that's awesome" *attempts to hook up/suduce her*

"wow what the f is this mess"

The fact that Theo saying the jacuzzi is lukewarm is what makes Kris try to fight him

The school flag on the crutch is so funny

Poor MC

Love that Max takes MC with him. Like there was no need, he could've left him but he was like "you don't need to be here bud you have no idea what's going on let's go and leave these guys alone"

"yess! Bethanne we stan a decisive queen!"

"mm the alternative being you acting little bitch"

"these are undoubtedly the craziest times in our lives! Like literally life will never be as crazy as this semester!"

"And with you~~"

Love everyone being in character durning the curtain call

Anyway I absolutely love this characters and their interactions with each other. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing Clark did so good. And everyone really popped off singing!! And it's so cool to see how far Joey, Lauren and Brian have come since 2009. Despite not actually being in theater myself I find several of the characters very relatable to myself and I'm sure other even if not in theater can relate to any of these characters. TCBoB is just so great.

[d0llhousess]

Hey. How are you? Can you list (in order) your favourite sport works ? It can be both manga and anime. 😊. And what work/s you think have better emotions description ? Like the emotional side of the character are clear as many sport works really focus on the sport itself more than other aspects. I know it might be tough since there are many good works but the more I get myself into Daiya the more I think "omg this is gonna be my 2nd best work" since I still like ANS over anything 😂

hmm this is so hard for me, Anon because like LMAO I CANT DECIDE FAVS FOR ANYTHING !! it took me way too long to even remember how much sport manga/anime i've watched/ read but here is like a very rough list

1.) Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru (Run with the Wind)

I love, love, love this anime. I think I've said it before but this anime is a story that I can only dream of writing. Every character is fleshed out , their motivations are clear, their emotions seem real. They seem real. The story is also so damn good omg. overall 10000/10 Kiyose haunts my dreams, u need to watch if u haven't.

2.) Days

READ THE MANGA PLEASE IM BEGGING! The anime is good! It's fun, it's light hearted, and it ties emotions into the sport of soccer/football well BUT THE MANGAAAA OHH MY GOD! THE MANGA. It is superior! THE ART STYLE>>>>> THE EMOTIONAL BEATS?? THE CHARACTER GROWTH! While the pace is a bit slow, the characters + cast make up for it and the emotions hit man. Days gets me riled up, and unlike Daiya or ANS (mangas i have some knowlege of the sport) i don't know shit about soccer/football, and it makes me CARE bout games! so yeah would recommend, main charcater is the best boy but Mizuki owns my heart

3.) Ahiru no Sora

I feel like this is obvious? Like the only reason why it isn't number one is because of the anime AND because I haven't finished it or like we're no where near it being half way translated but ! uhhh overall it has the BEST characters! and the best relationships/team relations. honestly these characters feel like guys in highschool just trying to maneuver their way through life and play the sport they love and i LOVE that!

4.) Blue Lock

Listenn.....i love this manga sm. and i love it because it isn't like any other sport manga i've ever read. It's intense, it's batshit crazy, it's fast paced as HELL. While there aren't much emotional moments, the ones they do have hit HARD. and idk i love how ruthless everyone is. It's like if the generation of miracles from KNB were all thrown in a room and told to compete for one position liKE I EAT IT UP. i forever love the anon that told me to read it bc it's def a fave.

5.) Eyeshield 21

ok ok, so this has such a soft spot in my heart. while it is older and ofc not the most accurate, I love the art style, the silly characters, and idk it reminds me of like... my childhood and yk what they say nostalgia sells better than sex. the anime just reminds me of early 2000s anime to the core and like the manga UGH it's such a fun read? it isnt really emotionally deep but to me i think the writing is very nuanced and the characters have more depth than many give them credit for plus idk! i just love the team and their arcs would def recommend if u havent watched or read.

anyways this is a very, VERY rough list that changes every two weeks based on my emotions and if i've rewatched one recently, or reread or etc! idk tbh everything I write for is like...a fave for me! but thank you for this question, Nonny! It was fun to answer!

how have you been? CONGRATS ON 1K BABE!!! IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU! 🎉 My heart was so fuzzy when I read you hit 1k, your work is so well written so you defo deserve it bb ☺️. also, i LOVE your playlist series ma’am. All those songs are straight up 🔥 and let me just say you defo did not overhype this!! I actually can’t wait to see what you’ll be writing for some of these, I love k-rnb so much!! I havent listened to it in a while now but this has made me make a new playlist. also, you did me such a favour by starting with atsumu because atsumu brain rot has been real bad and this was sooooooooo good!

let’s not forget the Levi angst that I didn’t realise I needed?!?! 🥺 i barely managed to get through it because i've been reading too much angst and it’s not good for my heart but the ending kept me at peace, urgh how are you so talented.

Also: girl, let’s stream was a whole ass ride that I would not mind going on again, love me some h word and needy Eren. 🤤 I still have yet to catch up on anything else you’ve released but bear with me, I will be coming back to pour compliments into your inbox about your writing.

Omg, the last aot episode had me thirsting for 18year old squad because they were all looking fine as hell but emotional over Sasha eating food and my heart was not able to handle it. I could not decide how to feel, fully just confused.com. i had to rewatch it because i couldn’t concentrate, it was so fast? The scenes were moving so quickly and my mind was still hanging on to the last but the animation was fire as per usual.

I seriously need to learn to write shorter messages but I like talking to you so that’s a dilemma I will deal with later hehe. Lots of love 💗

-🐈‍⬛

darling!!! 🐈‍⬛anon you’re back!!! seeing you in my inbox always puts a smile on my face :’)

i’ve been good, how are you?? THANK YOU BY THE WAY OMG 🥺💖 and i’m so glad to hear you love the playlist series, HAHAH i was lowkey self-conscious as i put the song list together but i’m happy to hear you like k-rnb too!! i love finding people who have similar music tastes to me 🥰 (also the atsumu one highkey is one of my personal faves, it’s based off a personal experience i have so 😳😳)

ANGST IN GENERAL ALWAYS HURTS ME SO MUCH!! it was my first time writing and i kept hurting my own damn self LMFAO, but thank you 🥺 pls i am not but i am so so happy to hear you enjoy my writing 🥺

it is ALWAYS horny hours for needy eren on this blog 😌 JFBJWFB isn’t it crazy how he’s a mass murderer but the fandom is like, eren would eat you out and cuddle you afterwards 🥺💖 JBSFJWFBE I CAN’T EVEN SAY ANYTHING I CONTRIBUTE TO THIS

the last aot episode also had me thirsting over them bc !!! they looked so fine!?!?! and my heart hurt sm bc i just miss them being young, i miss their innocence. it was such a sweet throwback (well not really) but it was honestly much needed in that middle of that episode and especially after sasha’s death. 

pls i love the long messages and i like talking to you too 🥺💖🥺💖 thanks for stopping by again 🐈‍⬛anon!! 🥰

[iholli]

fkcisndksjsn I was gonna respond as an ask but Tumblr is being mean to my phone rn + I realized I am gonna talk way too much gkdggjchbkjv

it's so true !!!! I haven't seen Mad Max (nobody tell my bestie they'll consider it a cardinal sin) but watching the trailer I fr thought it was gonna be a Mad Max Collab ???? I'm still so confused why it's not, I don't mind Fallout at all, it's just so odd !! but they made this season just for you, omg, Metallica and all 😂👏

AWWDXJENDKJSHS SHAKES UR HAND !!!!! superheroes as a general thing have been like, my entire life, even though I watch more stuff than I read comics, but both are cool for me >:3c

HAWKEYE IS A BASED ANSWER. dude rocks and my god, what a MOOD. I absolutely loved the Hawkeye show + it seems like he's sooooo funny in the comics too. I kind of want to pick up the comic the show is based on, when I can afford to do so, it looks like a lot of fun ???

IRON MAN !!! I still remember seeing the movie in theaters. what an awesome character !!! I've really enjoyed seeing him grow over the years of watching the movies and I sooo get why people like him sm.

omg,,,,,,, fellow Gambit enjoyer,,,,,,,,,,, how do u only keep getting cooler,,,,,,,, that favs list alone, you are definitely gonna enjoy 97 methinks. I'm rewatching it rn since I just finished the og show [only got into X-Men this year thanks to my brother] and it's just SO good. I mean, one emotional gut punch after the other, but what a masterpiece 😭👏 [plus as a comics reader you'll,,, more likely be prepared for the pain] oooo, you're like, the fourth person to recommend Evolution, I really gotta check it out :0 !! /gen

your whole favs list is super cool, omg !!!!

yeah that's totally fair !!! ooooo, those are great choices too, Ragnarok and Winter Soldier are easily the best "solo" movies for their respective characters imo and GotG is just SO good !!!

DC is totally my main dckjdndksjsn, I grew up with Batman: The Animated Series and I'm absolutely a snob about that era of DC being peak, plus the 60s Batman and Green Hornet shows !! although I'm really hopeful about DC media in the future, My Adventures with Superman has restored my faith and I'm soooo hyped about all the upcoming projects 😭😭

for DC, easily it's Martian Manhunter at number one, and Ratcatcher II! I also love Wally West Flash, Hawkgirl, Razer from Green Lantern: TAS, and The Question [Vic Sage], but there's so many good characters !! I also love love love the Justice Lords but I could probably actually talk about that for days. I think I have, somewhere on my blog, at least once.

for Marvel it's Loki at number one haha, Ant-Man [Scott Lang but Hank Pym is so great too], Captain America, Gambit, and Nightcrawler, just offhand xD both these lists could be super long if I really went down the line + I guarantee I'm forgetting some LMAOOO

OOO I don't know all those groups but from what I recognize, v good music 🫡 I listen to pretty much everything so just to pick a couple favs: Steam Powered Giraffe, which will always a special place in my heart; Ratt, OneRepublic, Mystery Skulls, Fall Out Boy, Linkin Park, and Powerwolf! plus electroswing and lots and lots of instrumental & lofi stuff,,, I have music playing almost 24/7,,,

okay, that's my ramble for the moment, ehe 💖💖

dkxjsndkxjs omg I definitely see why you like Megalo Don 😭👏💖 iconic fr

OOO, you like Marvel, now I'm really gonna be obnoxious >:3c

who's your favorite Avenger, who's your favorite X-Men, and do you have other favorite Marvel characters 👀

do you generally like the comics better or do you have any MCU favorites? characters or movies / shows, either way xD

have you watched X-Men 97 👀

AND do you like DC as well, or just Marvel?

also good music taste 👌👌 who's your favorite artist / band, and do you have a favorite album by them or someone else?

OOO more questions, awesome!! listen... Mad Max fuels me lmao no pun intended but when I saw the trailer for wrecked I was immediately getting MM feels and then I saw Don in game and it was all over for me! Im so happy you're also a marvel fan?!! wow you're honestly so cool rat. -reaches hand to shake- my favourite avenger is hawkeye -gets shot- I unironically like him and I have no shame. but Im also very much an iron man enjoyer. for x-men I gotta go with my boys magneto, cyclops, gambit aaaaand also a huge fan of cable! others favs are definitely ultron [my all time fav], andrew forson [super obscure character but looove him], star-lord, agent venom, crossbones, winter soldier, mysterio! I do like some of the mcu movies but the comic books are just what I have always preferred. though mcu movies I highly enjoy are guardians of the galaxy, winter soldier and thor ragnarok. I haven't watched 97 yet but I definitely need to! I grew up with the 90s animated series so 97 is A MUST! btw I can recommend xmen evolution to you if you haven't seen it, it's very fun to watch lol. I do like dc too! but I don't own nearly as many comics as I have for marvel. now I need to know your favs for marvel and also dc! my favourite musicians / bands to listen to are definitely mr kitty, hollywood undead, mind in a box, thyx, ac/dc, metallica, eisbrecher, corpse husband, perturbator, the weeknd uhh yes. hbu?

MOIPHY i was thinkin abt watching sailor moon!!! cuz i've never seen it but it's a classic!!!! what u think?? advice ??? 💖💖💖

YES OH N*CE YOU SHOULD!! sailor moon is sooo good its just a power of friendship and love magical girl story which is so fucking valid,,,, okay so the thing about sailor moon is that you have the manga, the 90s anime, and sailor moon crystal,, all of which i highly recommend fksdjfjksdjk so let me give you a breakdown of each and then my advice on where to start! 

sailor moon manga: a story in 62 acts, and 5 arcs! extremely beautiful art and story telling, and gives the best view on each characters personality and the actual plot. i honestly cant recommend the manga enough i love it with all my heart especially because it features my favorite chara. so much. 3 of the 5 arcs are dedicated to chibiusa and i. couldnt possibly ask for more.

90s anime: hfjksdjkfjk god i love the 90s anime so so dearly its very good and cute and i love the art style but also. it does what it wants! like theres so much filler its crazy,,, they still follow the same arcs as the manga but they add like. a lot to them. and a certain portion of that is really good and cool and i’m glad its added! and then a good portion is completely unnecessary imo,, so its kind of a toss up?? but yeah here (x) is a link to a filler reduced watch guide that ive been using for my rewatch!

Sailor Moon Crystal: despite the warranted criticism i still recommend it! like okay the big crit is the art style is ugly and theres too many animation errors. which the second part of that IS true but i personally think the crystal art style is very very pretty and i like it a lot!! i just wish they stayed on model and didnt have the errors….. EITHER WAY THO,, crystal is the more recent anime that some people said was supposed to be a filler reduced remake of the 90s anime, which is isnt true! crystal is actually an attempt at a sailor moon anime thats a closer adaption of the manga! and they do a really really good job of that!! unfortunately for us crystal so far remains unfinished, stopping at the end of the 3rd manga arc

so basically! its a toss up! i dont think theres really a “proper” way to introduce yourself to sailor moon because i feel like theyll all make you fall in love and want to see more! if you want me to further breakdown any of them (like what the arcs are, the 90s movies, whatever you wanna know!!) please just ask! 

but yes my end advice is that. i personally am showing sailor moon to a friend of mine and im first showing him crystal and then telling him where that leaves off chapter wise in the manga. so i GUESS thats how i recommend going about it for the meat of the sm story however like i said i dont think theres a right way and whichever sounds the most interesting to you is what you should go for!! 

[usaghinanami99]

@myucornerorg I feel you so much! I’ve had very little contact with Sailor Moon while I was still attending Primary School, and that meant I only happened to catch some random episodes of the old anime on TV, but I soon stopped watching them out of boredom - at the age of 8 I was already a pretty big anime fan (other than being a Disnerd pretty much since being born, lol) and I decided it was better to leave this awful show on its own to concentrate on the series that actually interested me, which were mainly Mermaid Melody, Pokémon, Yugi Oh, Roses of Versailles and Cat’s Eye... all of which are still among my best favourites. It’s funny to think that back then I treated Sailor Moon the exact same way I did with Dragon Ball, casting it aside because of the bad impressions I got from both shows... even funier considering how, while I’ve done a complete 180 regarding Dragon Ball, which after actually reading and watching I have come to appreciate as one of the best series ever, I still retain the same opinion about Sailor Moon. I mean that in 2012, when New Myu and Crystal weren't a thing yet, I found myself versing in a big crisis of Sailor Moon withdrawal, having already read anything ever published by Naoko Takeuchi and watched all of Old Myu and PGSM, I finally found the courage to buy the DVD boxes of the old anime and binge-watch all 200 episodes, 3 films and 3 shorts... only to find out that it was actually a horrible show XD That obviously happened when I had already become a Sailor Moon fan, which was all thanks to the manga: it all started in 2010, when I had just started attending Middle School and my favourite comic book publisher happened to start releasing the shinsoban edition of Sailor Moon, of which I bought the first volume just out of curiousity and, admittedly, marveling at the awesome cover illustration, which seemed to be such a sharp contrast with the bad animation I had come to associate Sailor Moon with during my childhood. Well, the result was a literal mindblow: just a few pages were sufficient to realize that it was actually the very best thing I had ever read (and it still is to date), thus falling completely in love. Needless to say that my utter adoration of the series only grew completing it, when, after having spent a year and a half waiting for the following month to deliver the new volume, I turned to the Internet to discover that there was just so much of my worshipped Naoko to read and more niche Sailor Moon products to watch. When I finished them too, this lead me to the crisis of which I've written above... But this was all to say that, after 12 volumes of Sailor Moon, 2 of Sailor V and 2 of short stories, I was finally able to find out that in fact, something even better than Beauty and the Beast really existed in the world, and I was so utterly enchanted by it. Starting from 2013, I decided to do a ritual re-read of the whole manga every summer, similarly to how I rewatch Beauty and the Beast every single month (of course the videotape is very ruined, but it's a symbol of love – not to say that, back when I was 3 to 6 years old and I had tons of free time, I usually watched the film every single day and sometimes even more than once a day), but unfortunately I haven't got enough time to do it with the same frequency with a full-length manga series XD As of now, I am actually re-reading it still another time because every month I buy the new volumes of the kanzenban edition, which is currently being published in Italy. Just to prove how much of a crazy SM fangirl I am, I need to say that last year, when I came of age, I finally managed to purchase copies of the first tankobon edition of Sailor Moon and Sailor V in Japanese, other than all the artbooks and the tankobon of all the other mangas and light novels written and/or illustrated by Naoko, of which I can't understand anything but at least now I own them (and yes, I had already read all of her mangas via Miss Dream, sooo...). Very recently I did the same with the PGSM DVD box, the Memorial Music and Memorial Song CD boxes of the old anime, all the Memorial Albums of the musicals and the AnzaMoon and FuminaMoon DVD boxes, and I'm looking forward to buying also the videotapes of the MiyukiMoon and MarinaMoon era musicals, but I prefer to do it in a bundle with all the DVDs of New Myus, so I'm waiting for the LMF one to be released in order to proceed with the order. Needless to say that my greatest dream is actually buying copies of all the paperback issues where Naoko's series were originally printed, I mean Nakayoshi, RunRun, Nakayoshi Deluxe, Nakayoshi Spring Vacation Land and Young You... but finding them is painfully difficult! Last thing to say, I am so in love with Naoko that actually went so far as to read every manga ever written by Yoshihiro Togashi just because he's her husband, and then proceeded to do the same with Miwa Ueda because she was Naoko's assistant and with Wataru Yoshizumi because Naoko was her assistant. Really. (Also yes, I too am one of those who really prefer Yukie Sako's character design to Akira Takahashi's one... I deeply hate the works of each one of the character designers of the old anime, but the Aikatsu-style season 3 of Crystal managed to surpass them in horribleness, IMHO!)

Regarding the Old VS New Myu argument, I have actually watched all of the released myus at least once, and the same can be said for the various fankans and omake, other than the recordings of officially unreleased material present on YouTube – even if, admittedly, the ones I rewatch more frequently are those from the first two stages, because of them being, as stated above, the only ones I own physically. And well, I still stick to my point: I find New Myu to be better, but I prefer Old Myu. (...I know this sounds awkwardly meaningless) Even the first two (released) ones, those with the most WTF plots and screenplayings, are to me extremely enjoyable thanks to their stunning songs – well, except maybe for Chohatsu – and the amazing ability of the cast. It amazes even me how I can enjoy so much two shows with so bad story and characterization, but that is: it just proves how miraculous music can be that it made me love two productions written by the dreaded Sukehiro Tomita, who was also the screenplay chief of the first two Sailor Moon seasons and the director and writer of Wedding Peach, which means that he's only got a record of horrible things on my list. I do agree that the musicals got much better plot-wise starting with Yume Senshi, when Takuya Hiramitsu replaced Jo Nobushi as the director, but what still bugs me is the very poor characterization that I find in pretty much all of Old Myu. Still, speaking only of the pre-hiatus musicals, my favourite ones plot-wise (and I put much emphasis on "plot-wise", because to me the best music-wise are the First Stage ones) are those directed by Junya Saiki and in particular Marina's first ones, as you said: my problem with Black Lady is not in the story itself, but in the very poor characters of the Inners, and the same can be said of Mughen Gakuen, adding the fact that I find the Hoshino family subplot to be quite bland. That is to say that, while in terms of strict "plot" Black Lady can easily hold up against Petite étrangère (except for the treatment of Demand's attempted violence, which I prefer in the latter), it is the true-to-the-manga characterization of the Inners and their actual utility in the story that make the second one better in my opinion. In the end, I think Hiramitsu definitely improved his writing skills during his long time of absence from Myu! Needless to say that I also love everything out of the constant little reference that New myus make to First Stages myus, which is very much Hiramitsu referencing himself and his previous works. To end this already-much-too-long post, here's a practical list of what I think New Myu needs to change in order to be as awesome as Old Myu, if not even better:

re-recruit Akiko Kosaka as the composer for the songs and BGM;

cast a Moon that is actually skilled at singing (it's very evident that Satomi and Hotaru put their whole heart into their role, but they clearly lacked the skills of their predecessors*, which sticks out as a sore thumb against the great ability of all the other actors);

leave the Takarazuka-style casting and let Mamoru be played by a man, also one as skilled and sexy as Yuta, please;

bring the sexy back: it's true the show can do without shirtless Yuta and Ryuji, but as a fangirl I would be more than pleased;

bring the Three Lights confusion scenes back.

Here, this is what I sincerely hope they'll do in 2019 and what I think would make New Myu simply perfect.

* = I must add that, while Satomi was pretty mediocre from La Reconquista to UNV, I was literally blown away by how much she improved when she returned as Cosmos – I was all like "heck, is this even the same person?"

PS: I'm sorry for the awful length of this post, I found myself carried away!
