in my experience i didn’t get interested in kingdom hearts by watching or playing anything first. i got interested by watching people post about cute anime children murdering each other and i was like ‘fascinating. i wonder how this got past the disney censors. let’s find out’

#kingdom hearts #khposting #of course i stayed for all the genuine heartfelt stuff. but that’s what got my attention first #media that is clearly supposed to be dark and is dark: meh. ok #media that is supposed to be fun and childish that dips a bit into dark stuff for delicious tonal whiplash every now and then: LET’S GO #‘why do you only like children’s stuff’ eh. cuz i like when stuff can be messed up and real #but when the creators aren’t allowed to lean on blood gore and violence as a crutch. i like when they’re forced to think outside the box #you tell a kids media creator they aren’t allowed to kill someone and they go ok. got it. i will create a fate worse than death #now that’s what i’m talking about!#not saying all adult stuff is uncreative blood gore and violence of course #just saying that it’s always a possibility and it makes me nervous #i like being personally guaranteed in advance that i wouldn’t be jumpscared by upsetting things and personal triggers bc i’m v sensitive #i get anxious without that guarantee #it isn’t baseless anxiety at all it happens. i have been shown so much awful stuff in one of my film-related classes lately #including one of my own worst personal nightmares #call me cringe idc
