#Zac Oyama is my fav

[feelingtheaster99]

So far (in the D20 canon I have watched) Zac Oyama either plays the sweetest most himbo-est man or a deceptive lil shit, I love both these types equally 💕

I’m so glad that Tomas is going to be part of Neverafter next week, so glad we may get more Pib moments, more of his story and what makes him tick.

Because Pib is another in a long line of Zac’s characters that stand slightly apart from the rest of the party, out of focus and out of the spotlight.

Let’s break it down.

Note: I don’t know Gorgug as well as a character and haven’t finished sophomore year, so I’m not going to go into depth with him, but as an Orc raised by Gnomes, I feel like he fits this too. Also leaving out Coffin Run because that, while great, is its whole own Thing. Anyway, here’s the rest.

Ricky Matsui. When the story starts, he’s neither an established part of the Unsleeping City like Kugrash, Kingston, and Misty, nor brand new like Sophia and Pete. He holds more allegiance to regular old New York than any of the others. This position of being caught in the middle is amplified in TUC 2, where he is no longer a firefighter, no longer a fighter at all, but in between and separate. And he recognizes this same feeling of separation in JJ, and that connection helps save the day.

Lapin Cadbury. The sole full caster among warriors. Not royalty or family. Keeping secrets from the Church and the other PCs. Unwillingly indebted to the Sugarplum Fairy. Left behind and gone too quickly.

Cumulous. Quite literally an outsider. The only PC with a connection to the Hungry One. He strikes off on his own multiple times to give the party the best chance possible. In the end, when everyone is discussing allegiances, Cumulous never chooses sides. There was an assumption that his ties to magic put him on Saccharina’s side, Saccharina and Theobald approach him, but he is the only one who never commits one way or the other.

Norman. Grumpy asshole captain, betrayed by his former commanders. His entire crew is fine with him being brain-slugged. No one is on his side.

Skip. Slug prince who chooses the crew over his kingdom. Who couldn’t fully communicate who or what he was to the rest of the characters for a good chunk of the show. Who had more compassion for his host than anyone else ever had. So much compassion that he and Norman become something new together.

And now, Pib. Who is not a character in the same way the others are. Who is not just Puss in Boots, but the Cat. Who explores Drosselmeyer’s carriage and the Lines Between, alone. Who spies on the Fairy’s servants, alone. Who talks to Alphonse, alone. But who also will not allow Tomas to be eaten by Fox, or Alphonse to be killed. Not fully character or archetype, but something of both, in between and separate.

I love Zac’s characters so much. There are plenty of outsider characters in D20 history, but Zac’s hit different. They’re never clamoring to be heard or understood, or wrestling violently with the concept of self. They have this quiet, almost expected loneliness coupled with a deep well of compassion. It’s incredibly beautiful and never quite the same, and so enthralling to me.

Anyway, I’m in no rush to jump into Pib’s story, because I know we’ll get there eventually. Even if fandom tends to dismiss Zac’s characters, Brennan never does, so I know big things are coming for Pib, one way or another.

Because Brennan's stories are almost always about choosing compassion against all odds, and that is the core on nearly every Zac Oyama character.

LAPIN CADBURY

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

I loved you so Lapin

(Also shoutout to Zac. I haven’t watched enough of Fantasy High or rest of D20 yet so maybe I’ll be proven wrong, but I don’t think I’ve seen so many badass moments from him as I have in these six (ONLY SIX??) episodes he’s played Lapin Cadbury. Fucking LEGEND.)

zac oyama is one of my fav dnd actual players. he doesnt frequently do BIG BIG moves but he doesnt need to. his creativity in his choices is so top notch it has the same impact and sometimes more

[weevil-on-printer]

so excited to rewatch coffin run

honestly one of the BEST CAST seasons, in my opinion

You got Izzy Rolland, Zac Oyama, Erica Ishii AND Carlos Luna?????

and to top it of, Jasmine Bhullar as the DM???

also i adore each and every one of the PC’s

honestly up there with tiny heist with fav side quests

[wxrmland]

d20 intrepid heroes cast in order of hotness (for me):

1. lou wilson - esp now with the dreads he’s been so hot since starstuck and esp since fey and flowers i die every time. and now that he added blue it was really the final nail in the coffin i just stare at him

2. ally beardsley - i am trans and therefore

3. zac oyama - the 33 last episode cemented his standing here. i’ve actually thought it was cute since college humor facebook skits

4. emily axford - she’s my partner’s fav and i need to honor that, she also always cries for real which is hot, love when they get into it

5. murph - there’s something to be said for cringefail husband. i can’t fix him but it’s fun to watch him get worse

6. siobhan thompson - love her very much as a person, but unfortunately i don’t have the liking white woman condition. fashion is good tho she’s actually tied with murph really

[judasjasperite]

no WAAAY i didn’t realize u were a dropout fan too!!! they’re literally my second family. omg who is ur fav? what’s ur fav show?

I love love LOVE Zac Oyama!

when I was younger and first really watching YouTube and watched a lot of the college humor videos, I had a huge crush on him (I still kind of do a little bit) 🫢 Katie is my runner up.

Make Some Noise is my favorite show but I plan on sitting down and finally watching Very Important People today after I watch Bridgerton season 3 because I loved all the clips I saw, I just didn’t have time to watch it until my semester ended
