Season 5 spoilers

Alright so this is about the "incident" between Wukong and Macaque. Speculations and analyzing.

So gonna admit, back during season 4, I believed the theory that Macaque didn't fully see what happened during their fight and that Wukong actually didn't actually kill him. I thought it feed into the mystery on who is pulling the strings and honestly didn't believe the show would show one of the main characters killing someone.

But now, season 5 has me completely changing my thoughts and theories.

The scene was less then 5 seconds, but we learned so much. Not only were the flashbacks the same for Wukong and Macaque, but we finally got to hear a piece of what happen. Specifically that it wasn't the case of Macaque begging for mercy or Wukong listening to orders, it was the two of them being pushed to their limit. If this goes like it does in JTTW then they been doing this for days, and the both of them probably growing desperate. With Macaque becoming sadistic and Wukong furious.

But what sells the idea was the on going lesson for season 5.

Beside the lesson being "angst and suffering" the main bit was that there is always another way. Which lead to MK's amazing "yeah, no" conclusion for the finale, but the fact he learned it from both Macaque and Wukong. With Wukong's, "choose your own path" and Macaque's "The choices they are giving you aren't the only choices you got". They weren't just referring to the war against the celestial realm or the imprisonment under the mountain. They were referring to THE fight.

The two of them at the time only saw one solution. Macaque saw that threats and violence was the only way he could make Wukong listen and he wanted him to hurt as much as he did. While Wukong had to fight as his friends were at risk by the person who he saw abandon him and thought he could trust that wouldn't listen to reason. All building up till the only solution left ended with the staff through Macaque's eye. Since then they've been either repressing this moment or replaying the memory, and when they do. They realize, there was always another choice.

And yeah season 5 showed that they weren't scared to pull their punches, so bringing up Wukong killed his best friend is completely plausibe(guess it makes sense, the first season showed him smashing DBK out of the mortal realm with a mountain).

And I will be so glad if they go in this direction, because it wouldn't be the case where the blame gets shrugged on someone else like Tripitaka or "The Evil Mastermind". What happened during the "incident" was between them, and both of them are at fault. Both of them believed they were betrayed and abandoned, and both since that time has realized they've made mistakes. And even as they now fight, deep down they still care for each other and don't want to loose each other again. The only question being, how many times does the world have to almost end for them to admit it?

Macaque spent the whole season Big-Damn-Hero-ing and was NOT happy about it xD

[crabbys-stuff]

Dunno if this counts as a spoiler??

Was anybody going to tell me season 5 was already out or was I just supposed to find it out myself on tiktok 😩😩😩🙏✨️

[lallelol]

“I got you kiddo”

I hope season 5 is treating you as well as it treated me

Animation process under the cut!

Let’s all begin by thanking @meggalice for inspiring me with her beautiful LMK sketches ♥️

Boards (the timing of these was changed a lot, for instance there’s a much longer pause on the moment Wukong catches MK in the final version, instead of being one flat flow like this)

Lines, without the flowy bits

Final, slowed down at 12 fps

Wow you reached the bottom, lets have a chat. How you doing? Me? I finished my first 3 exams this summer, later on i got another one and then it’s graduation time 💃

About LMK, go show season 5 more love!!! The animation team at Wild Brain deserves all the kudos, for real they created a miracl

Now leave this post better than you found it

How Macaque died (Season 5 spoilers)

@rika1991tr tagged me, and asked what it tells us about Macaque's death/ him and Wukong's fight.

So- this is for you :D

and...

*cracks knunckles*

OH BOY

To get to the bottom of this, we have to understand one thing:

Wukong and Macaque never stopped caring for eachother. Beheind all that hate in the first three seasons, they still cared for eachother (none of them dares to show it though)

Just look at how Macaque reaches out for Wukong- (godamnit)

So... what was that "something" Wukong was going to do, that he was warning Macaque about?

Well... Wukong was going to do THIS to Macaque:

Because as my dear friend @lu-zijing (they talked about it here) mentioned to me, there is chains here in Macaque death scene:

And not only that, thoughs chains look A LOT like the chains Tripitaka and Wukong put on LBD:

SO IN OTHER WORDS:

MK AND WUKONGS FIGHT ARE A PARALELL TO MACAQUE AND WUKONG'S FIGHT.

AND ALSO THIS LINE?

Nine headed demon: How did you know that spell? Who did you make a deal with?

Macaque: What deal?

So clearly Macaque has a power, tha he got from someone else, that he CANT control.

And what do we see here in this scene?

The chains broken (again thanks to Lu-Zijing for mentioning that to me), but the shadowpowers OUT OF CONTROL.

In other words: I higely doubt Wukong acutally killed Macaque.

Yes, they got into a fight, but Wukong just wanted to trap Macaque in chains, so he could talk him out of this fight (instead of fighting who used to be his closest compainion).

But... something went wrong. Because right after that line we saw this:

Meaning that Wukong (acdently), destroyed Macaques eye, causing Macaque to PANIC, resulting in Macaque over-using his shadowpowers and then...

...

And one last thing, I would like to point out-

In that same scene Macaque was laughing, and an pretty evil laugh at that.

Almost like... his shadow powers had "taken over".

So lets do the math, yea?

Super unstable shadowpowers + super unstable monkey + the only friend he has ever had "leaving" him =

Ha ha- not to mention Wukong isnt even wearing a circlet here, meaning it didnt even take place in JTTW-!! but thats another can of worms, I will talk about another day-

(lol, did you know I acutally somehow foresaw this in a fanfic-)

[kyri45]

How many shenanigans can I add to interrupt as many confessions as possible? Also bold of you to assume the Dads™️ wouldn’t have heard MK being distressed.
