simultaneously really funny and really upsetting when someone makes a bold claim about how others lack “critical thinking,” “media literacy,” or whatever the hot new self-congratulatory term of the month is while demonstrating that they, too, lack these skills
Don’t you just love those moments where a fandom unanimously agrees on a very particular headcanon about a character?
Like pretty much everybody agrees pre-ghoul John had blond hair
My only thing though is this… I feel he had big beautiful brown eyes instead of the baby blues everyone agrees on
idk why I felt the need to share this. honestly it’s just been a rough couple…several months now and I miss this site and playing all the games and writing and 😢
so… i joked that escamillo would be friends with figaro. and then i joked that if escamillo hadn’t dated carmen, the plot of the opera could turn into… the barber of seville. but without don bartolo. carmen just wouldn’t care.
I don’t know how to describe my feelings about the YYH live action now that I’ve watched it to the end
I’m thankful that they made it because so much of it is so good, and yet it feels like they held a gun to the director & crew’s head and say ‘make it all fit in 5 episodes’. What the hell, man. Why did they not have more episodes to work with, why did they have to fit 65+ episodes of anime content in 5 1hr episodes….
Everything else was going for it! Like!! I can’t emphasize enough that the frustration I’m feeling is not directed at the actors, set designer, writers, etc… the fact that they managed to wring out something this good despite the episode limit is insane.
I don’t think I could recommend this to newbies. Die-hards like me for sure who’d be excited to see it in live-action, but man…
