#begging people to just recognize that the Nexus arc was written primarily to get from a to b

Bro if you think New Moon, before the Nexus arc where they were doing everything in their power to write him off as evil because they knew he was going to be killed off and replaced, was a worse brother than Old Moon or even anywhere close you are just straight up incorrect sorry.

First off very serious, stop downplaying Old Moon's abuse, you may not be meaning to but you are, you cannot be obtuse about why NM jokingly threatening Sun like normal siblings do all the time is okay but OM threatening the same thing when he would actually physically abuse Sun isn't okay. There is an obvious difference there and it's gross to say otherwise. Secondly more silly I am bapping you like an annoyed cat NM was around for a year and I guarantee you he was not played with Nexus in mind for the majority of it they were not in fact dropping hints that he would be evil this whole time. This is not to say New Moon was perfect, he wasn't, but literally none of the characters are. If you picked at every mistake or ruder comment a character made then they're all secretly evil and toxic (which some people actually believe looks at the Solar is evil theories). But I think it's insulting to go to people upset that their fav character was butchered and say "um actually New Moon was NEVER good" because you're biased against Nexus and want to rewrite what New Moon was actually like. Which is something that the show doesn't even support btw. Earth recently talked about how sweet New Moon was, Sun during the turning point of NM's grief arc turning into the Nexus arc admitted that New Moon up until that point was a better brother than Moon, the bulk of Nexus' horrible actions were not of him being a toxic brother it's him being an EX-brother turned villain. Which for reference is like how the og Eclipse was a toxic brother to Lunar but you would not say he was a toxic brother to Sun and Moon because the role and circumstances around how he hurt them were very different. New Moon was a very good brother that the story left turned into trying very hard to justify getting rid of so we could have our current story (Old Moon as our Moon, Dark Sun successfully having Sun kill a Moon, the dimensional discrepancy, etc).

Yeahh, I still don't get how people forget so easly that N!Moon was a good person before all this...

I mean, I'm upset for all the things he did in his villain arc, but I'm more upset about how such a good brother turned like this, to the evil side...

I liked N!Moon very much, he was such a good brother to the family, but because of some events (that I'm not going to explain, because I will end up writing a poem), he turned into Nexus that was basically the opposite of the past N!Moon....

Yes, I didn't like that he turned into that and I didn't like that he didn't have a change to redeem himself, because $un forced Sun to kill or Nexus or Moon.

If Sun could have decided, he wouldn't have killed neither of them. He would simply escaped with Moon and Solar and maybe he would have tried again and again on helping Nexus become good again.

But because of $un, Sun didn't have that chance and Nexus didn't have the possibility to get redeemed.

I would honestly loved to have Nexus back in the family or at the be good again!... but I guess we can't have everything...
