ARK TAS theorising (spoilers)

Honestly was confused when Helena brought out the green artifact and I was racking my brain to figure out which one it was. Turns out it was the Artifact of the Pack which I’ve never really seen a lot of. Pretty neat, anyway. With that said, it’s interesting to see that the Broodmother’s defeat meant the Green Obelisk appeared, so I’m guessing the Megapithecus in the sixth episode’s trailer is the next boss they’d go for (or stumble upon, they didn’t know they were about to go into a nest of giant spiders lmao). The other two artifacts must be the Artifact of the Strong (blue) and Artifact of the Immune (red). Either one is terrifying in their own respects and I can’t imagine anyone willingly going into either cave to get them. (You know, the toxic gas, and the stupid amount of creatures in both caves, Strong’s cave having super cold temperatures and yetis n all that jazz). What I am most interested to see is the inclusion of TEK gear, what I assume to be the TEK rifle when Mei-Yin takes one (AND LEAVES THE OTHER??? I would totally grab that for some extra firepower if need be).

On another note, I named every ARK creature I could see when they appeared on the screen (though I wish we saw more of that Quetzal, oh well, the baby is good enough for now).

That’s all I got for now, I want to see more people posting about this series (i watched it for the lesbians).

Alright lads what up it's ya boi back with another crack video game lore theory but this time it's about the ark animated series because the Brainrot has gotten sooo bad dude help me

Anyway here's my theory on Rockwell's backstory based entirely on approximately 2 seconds of teasers and a singular drawing in the background. I'm expecting basically all of this to be incorrect I just think it's fun to speculate. Im tagging it as spoilers anyway just to be safe

1. He had a daughter named Charlotte (based on the drawing of a young girl in his study, which is who he likely name-drops in the part 2 teaser. I'm assuming daughter because it could serve as a bit of a stand-in for Helena's role in the game lore. Or a prerequisite. Bro is not escaping fatherhood no matter what version of the lore we go with and I think that's funny) [side note it's extremely cursed that that happens to be my name as well, Wildcard out of all the feminine English names you could have picked why did it have to be that one I'm goign to implode]

2. She died (bonus points if she dies of some illness that Rockwell himself recovers from, for that extra survivor's guilt)

3. Rockwell tried to lose himself in his work to cope, unfortunately said work happened to be early studies on Element and he started going off the rails about its potential of creation and modification, and no one believed him about its potential so they thought he's just genuinely insane (hence the "what is God compared to the genius of man" type comment. This would also parallel Helena being responsible for the early concept of recreating extinct creatures, much later used in the ARKs. He came up with the how, she came up with the why)

4. He got mercilessly locked up in an asylum and started to further deteriorate due to isolation (given how they've handled other characters I'm assuming this will be presented as a Bad Thing by the show. Like I don't think it'll be framed as "lol he deserved it" I think it'll be "hey this is why maybe we support struggling people instead of locking them away and forgetting about them")

5. He eventually dies and then wakes up on the ARK, cue extra "why did I get another chance and not my daughter" pain

6. While on the ARK he starts obsessing over Element again to prove to himself that he was always right about it and didn't deserve what happened to him

7. The Element starts inevitably corrupting him and from here we follow the old lore path yippee!!

If any of this comes true I will be eating drywall btw. Drinking paint. Gnawing at the bars of my enclosure etc etc

Watch ARK: The Animated Series!!!!

So, I binged ARK: The Animated series today. It's a TV show, which is based on a video game and not only is it great but, I swear to God, whoever wrote this set out with the intention of pissing off the Gamerbro crowd as much as humanly possible.

Stuff that will make the Gamerbros cry and whine like little babies: 01). Main Character is a Aboriginal Australian Lesbian (Voiced by an Aboriginal Australian Actress no less). 02). Main Character's wife is a blue haired women who works as a translator for a humanitarian air organization (voiced by Elliot Page). 03). Main Character is a neurodivergent paleontologist. 04). Main Character's mother was a civil rights activist. 05). There's a plot line revolving around protesting the taking of Aboriginal lands. 06). Another major character is a Chinese Warrior Woman who is also a great big lesbian (voiced my Michelle Yeoh). 07). Main villain is a Roman General (Voiced by Gerard Butler) 08). Secondary Villain is an 19th century British Scientist (Voiced by David Tenant) 09). Tertiary Villain is a female Roman Gladiator. 10). Another major character is a Lakota man from the 19th century who was abducted from his tribe and sent to one of the Indian boarding schools. 11). The Main Character is better at science than the 19th Century British Scientist guy.

Great things about the show: 01). It's very gay. Like, so gay. 02). The characters are freaking awesome. 03). There are freaking dinosaurs. So many dinosaurs. 04). It makes you feel. Just, seriously, it makes you fucking feel.

Cons: 01). Content Warning: Self Unaliving in episode 1 02). This show is fucking violent. Like, I get that there's this whole 'battle for survival' thing going on, but we're talking kind of gratuitous 03). levels of violence. Seriously, half the animation budget was spent on red paint. That much violence. 04). The show is predictable AF. Like, I don't mind that, but don't expect any real surprises or plot twists.

In conclusion: Watch the fuck out of this show, because cons aside, it was freaking amazing. It's not like, Arcane levels of perfection, but if you want a fun, gay, show to watch, this is a great choice. There is also a part too already filmed and in the can which will drop later this year, so we're definitely getting more, and even the preview for Part II has gay in it.

ark tas spoilers but i noticed something

[aidenbabiden]

So with no spoilers. Does the demon king appear? Also how yall feel about it as a whole,

[ofpineapplesanddawns]

So, they finally released Ark, the animated series version of the games, and I decided to give it a watch. It's got David in it playing the villain (that's not a spoiler, it's pretty damn obvious from the moment you see him), and so far I'm enjoying it.

It's got dinosaurs, our protagonist is a lesbian and Aborigine, and there is a lot of violence and stuff happening. And there's David being an evil bastard in a lot of ways. I want to punch him, so that means he's an excellent David-played villain. You want him to get his comeuppance so badly.

I've never played the games (a former coworker of mine has and said they're amazing, but holy shit you need A LOT of space on your computer for it because it's massive), and said that Rockwell, David's character, makes for a very fascinating villian.

Also, what happens to him at the end of the game is fuckin' insane.

I hope to see it animated.

:)

2024 is another year for David, isn't it?

Ty for the cat ear tidbits. I do have a cat, so he'll be a good refrence point.

I think the dungeon meshi writer hit a note with the "discriminating against races with extra bones" bit cuz, it does make a difference with how enately human a character feels. I have characters with tails. But cat vampire man, is un tailable kinda. His feel as a character is dis connected once extra bones are introduced. (if goes too much into avatar land, too many furry vibes lmfaooooo)

I think it's a small reason why laios is stripped of his monster bits at the end, lore reasons aside, it touches his feel as a character, his ark is established as him being sat in his human ness dispite his desire to be monster, somthing somthing (insert cohesive character analysis abt the ending of his ark here lmfao)

ah I didn’t know that at the end! I’m anime only 😅 Fair enough though. I know a few spoilers but I’d appreciate no more for the very end of the series please!

ark the animated series spoilers

i find it kind of hilarious that they made helena x mei-yin canon because when i was reading the explorer notes the first time i DEFINITELY saw something between them and making it canon in the show kinda feels like the writers saw what the games story didnt do and went "fine ill do it myself"

[charliebug3]

Hey so y'know how Rockwell can't move in any of his boss fights? :)

[grimmgrinningghouls]

Anyways, I figured out how to clip ark tas.

[venusaria]

I'm terrible at coming up with prompts to send people, but I just wanted to say it's nice to see when someone is able to come back to a hobby they enjoy! Do you have a favorite d gray man character?

(I haven’t typed in so long so this is easy my most poorly written post I’ve ever typed 🫠, but hopefully it’s understandable. This is also not gonna have spoilers just because I haven’t read d.gray-man in so long I actually forgot a huge chunk of the plot, but I still remember bits of it)

When it comes to writing wise, I personally feel like the Earl would be my favorite, because he is probably the best written character besides Allen walker. It’s hard to explain it, but I think that out of all anime/manga antagonists, the Earl has the most unique role and lore in all of anime/manga, just because of how unpredictable it is, to where I was very taken aback about his plot twist.

I’ve never read a series that uses an antagonist in such a fashion, to where D.Gray-Man as a whole stands out to me, and I think that personally the way that his character was used was very well done.

When I first read the series I’ve never thought much of him as “Ah, a character wanting to destroy the world blah blah blah”, hence why when I first read D.Gray-Man back in 2017, I never cared for him. It wasn’t till after the Noah’s Ark Arc that started to make me more invested in the Earls character, especially when the 14th was introduced. And when his backstory was revealed, I was very shocked yet invested just because of how it was introduced and why it was so important to know about.

Ima ramble but the Earl is my favorite

I also like Tyki because he’s hot and stupid ahshasksksk

(When I reread DGM I’ll remake this post but with everything I forgot about bc I feel like it’s something worth pointing out)

(I’ll also do a teer-list of my favorite characters after I reread it)
