pls don't tell me she says her name like ar-soka

she says like ahserka or ahshooka it’s a mess 😭😭😭

[meandmyechoes]

Warrior. Outcast. Rebel. Jedi.

The tagline clearly shows Ahsoka let herself be a Jedi again in the end. I don't know how to feel about it except maybe stop with the "I'm no Jedi" jokes because it doesn't just show your misunderstanding of the Wrong Jedi arc and the Siege of Mandalore, but of one single non-sentence

so how do i block the ah**ka series everything looks so ugly i can’t begin to care

[meandmyechoes]

other things i don't like from the ahserka trailer:

that it's actually rebels season 5

that it robbed rebels of an animated season 5

sabine's cat eye

hera's clearly a human

fake ass planets and flat lighting

rd's wooden face

new enforcer looks like a discount enid

yojimbo loner walking ruins shots; circular floor cut re tcw 7.12 re rots; hallway scene the fourth; the rocker gesture; landing scene re tcw 7.09

too many boring humans, too many ugly aliens

[meandmyechoes]

the way she holds her fucking clunky sabers is so fucking ugly why is she holding it so close to the blade why is she holding it double-handed like kendo why is she pulling them apart like kung fu palms

cardboard armour + ahsoka's s3 belt

*wakes up and am blasted with notes a year of tokuposting made me forget*

i'll be using #ahserka for my own complaints about it and #ahsoka series for fanart and actual footage (minus the mc). i made it a rule to not have live-action ahsoka's face on my blog as much as possible. fanart of better mando-era ahsoka and previous meltdowns are under #mka

since there's no serial star wars until august and it's a series i'm not sure i can sit through i'm gonna turn this into sentai brainrot.

i like kingoh this much i've watched every episode at least three times and trying to piece together all the information. i love rita so much i'm planning kingoh FLT and dissecting their costume and sewn a plush and possibly will buy a toy during its run

now i'm just racing to finish kingoh brainrot before May 4 so I can concentrate on Visions vol 2. After Sixth debut I probably had to put things on hold for real to do school work. I hope.

it's plot-heavy and serial unlike your typical sentai but almost typically anime/shonen with a heavy fantasy setting and character designs. but do you need more reason than 'rita kanisuka' to watch it. and the tokusatsu action/direction is so good.

practically:

i started a toku sideblog @mofffun anyway so i will be free-r over there. kinda wanna post opinions here and gifs over there lol. maybe polished gifsets here and random gifs over there. my queue is low in the tens but i certainly have many SW stock. i won't remove that completely just, not actively going for it? i'd still do regular tag searches on top of what came on my dashboard, but i might not write/talk about SW for a while? i still have a couple books to read

it feels weird because i became an SW centric blog since I came back 3 years ago. Not to say I didn't have other stuff chimed in but it's been 95% SW running non stop for 3 years. It's weird to have a sudden shift that stays. It's even weirder when you think when i first started this blog in 2012, it's as multifandom as you can get with 5 regular ones. so fuck it. i care about followers and feel a duty to provide? like an editor to a magazine? but probably just overthinking it. i won't force anyone to continue following if they are not into what i'm putting out. it feels weird but i'm just gonna talk about kingohger as much as i want to now. maybe change the blog description in a bit so that i don't feel disconnected. it's MY blog.

Talking about fixating on kingoh. I love the thrill of collecting clues and unraveling its plot. I love thinking again. I love that it gave me a reachable goal to work towards. Though half the time i'm just shouting RITA KAWAII/KAKKOUI i don't really pay attention to what's being said. It's been saccahrine the past 48 hours and i'm exhausted and elated. they got me crawling my ass up sunday at 8 to watch nitiasa live again.

compared with star wars it's just, ₻₻₻ (<- scribble). Mando s3 was a letdown and nobody cares about tbb. i can't stand how hype ppl are for the ahserka series and it feels like a minefield getting to know others with that hanging. sometimes i had to listen to ill-informed forum bros dissing, and when i look at official stuff, i begin to question who's actually keeping the lore.

it's not all negative. i still haven't done a totj!togruta analysis (even though i don't really want to think about totj itself because all it is to me is episode 5). i'm still super excited about SWC2025. i still love ahsoka (yes holding that throne against rita). I know I will be blown away by Visions as well. But I've been letting that define and govern me for too long it's time to let somebody else have a chance.

I'm crazy scared i won't be able to finish work this time. i'd hate that. i'm working the courage to tell my fam i need some space but, every time i actually said that, it's no use anyway. because i'm special. i'm responsible. what i do will never be enough.

i also try not to think to much about the society or where i will be in five years. it's like, some of the things i ultimately want can't happen unless you give it a few years of effort but i don't dare to dream that far. eh

well good thing ko let me think all that. i like thinking. i like writing.

hearing dave said he's "surrounded by the right people" to work on live-action

[meandmyechoes]

watched the live-action ahserka makeup video regardless of my zero makeup knowledge:

the makeup was something I was neutral/gave a PASS (*Asian pass) on because it does not require breakthrough techniques

so yeah, anyone with a stencil can air-brush perfect markings, confirmed.

(and yet… they still have to change something.)

how to cover up the eyebrows: silicon forehead, i.e. fancy swim cap

body paint confirmed (guess i was overthinking)

ffs the stiffness of that headpiece
