"So then he threw the Dragon Ball into the ocean, but luckily we had the Dragon Radar, so Bulma sent Gohan to get it, and then..." 🫠

(In other words: Trunks finally hears about Vegeta's shenanigans from the Saiyan saga to the present. But the others reassure him that Vegeta's (probably) a team player now, so it's okay!)

#i feel you op i also started initially to read the stories but got busy grinding for events instead 😭 #i also haven't read any of the events not even madguy bc i feel like im gonna miss a lot of context i feel sorry for my boys #although I've recently caught up to ch7 and it made me a stornger more brainrotted madguy fan than before #ppl said it's gonna get more insane later on and im nervous #but so far. the stories are GOOD i highly recommend reading it if you're able to #it's just kamen rider but with extra steps #also to assuage your fear (i hope?) i heard from the grapevines that the change to leon is minimal you can easily miss it (via @chipsncookies)

YES I feel a lot better knowing other people are in the same boat as me! :') as someone who only plays games very casually, the events are fun (and have been a good excuse to get those support stories on characters I was kinda ignoring) but SO distracting -- and they have a connected overarching narrative of their own (make sure you read them in order when you get to them!) so I don't want to skip any. which I guess is to say that my problem is that I'm enjoying the writing too much! how dare they.

overall it definitely has that Kamen Rider tone and feeling I was hoping for and I am VERY pleased with it! I do kinda miss the kitbashy monsters, though otherwise it's basically just Rider But With More Random Scenes of Characters Being Ridiculous At Each Other and that is exactly what I was after. (also exquisite taste, Mad Guys are best guys 🤝)

and as long as I still haven't gotten to episode 13 and can therefore continue to be hilariously naive, let me just say that I know what I'm dreaming of for Leon. he deserves it.

...although I do think it would be VERY funny if they made that whole big "WE WILL BE UPDATING LEON'S SPRITES TO REFLECT STORY CHANGES!!!!" announcement and then it turns out that they just like. hue-shifted his eye color slightly to the right or something. it's not even a big story beat, Leon just decided to try out some color contacts, maybe comb his hair back a little, and we don't have the heart to tell him to stop. :(

Design for trip-up

The hot rod patrol are hot rod's biggest critics, they find fault in just about everything he does and have come to rescue the autobots stranded on earth really just to show they're better than him. And nobody exemplifies their distain towards hot rod better than trip-up, he'll never forgive him for insulting his mom one time (hes very touchy about that)

Trip-up is the most aggressive, contemptuous, and openly malicous member of the hot rod patrol. His own morality is something that deeply troubles him deep down. No matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to fight his urge to be petty.

His willingness to screw other people over to his own benefit is born from his past. He never wanted to be a mechanic, but his momma (bless her spark) died, and he had to take over the family business to stay afloat. His success in the field led to the wreckers taking note.

From their invitation, he met Big Daddy and joined the team. He hates the job, loathes it with a passion, and takes it out on pretty much everybody except hubs. something about her gets him really flustered. It's clear she likes him back in a playful bully kind of way

Even though big daddy and greaser run the team in a very unorthodox, "anything goes in the name of freedom" philosophy, they keep an eye on trip-up as they feel he could be a bad influence on hubs,

trip-up's personal beef with hot rod is that one time, they were testing those exhaust pipe flamethrowers hot rod likes to use so much and trip-up wanted to use a special family recipe as fuel but hot rod preferred a store bought alternative, the greatest insult trip-up ever had to endure

the thing that fucks me up about Arthur Bennett isn’t that he would never have chosen different, but that he really could have. that he almost does. but he doesn’t. and the cycle continues

Anime fans need to stop calling episodes they don't like "filler" I'm so sick of it. Filler means an episode where there was no base material, you cannot call any episode in an anime with no manga/novel basis filler, that's just not what the fucking word means. Killing all shounen fans for real

RIP Kenneth Cope (14.4.1931 - 11.9.2024)

"Michael Pratt and I just gelled. We had never met previously but we got on so well. Michael wrote, and we had such a great relationship that we would just change lines, and we were both on the same wavelength. That was such a lucky, lucky thing."

Design for Big Daddy (yes she's a real character)

She's the leader of the hot rod patrol, like the rest of the team, she's a younger bot, lacking real maturity, seen in her justified but frankly childish crusade against hot rod. Throughout hot rod's gradual rise, big daddy and her team criticized him at every step but with their constant pressure hot rod improved. He wouldn't be half the leader he eventually becomes without them.

Big Daddy was an early adopter of Greaser's sense of style, born on lower omega supreme on the ark, she was born tougher than tough and stronger than strong, but the other bots would often try to push her around, because of her small size, in time she would get sick of it and begin to test other people to see if they're worthy of her, which eventually formed into her unique ideology, all leadership must be tested if it is fit to lead,

A long time ago now, she picked up hot rod to join her team, gifted son of paradronian immigrants, who's seen life from every angle even at an early age. she saw potential in him for great things but his time on the team turned hot rod into an overconfident arrogant and self absorbed jerk, who thought the world was already promised to him, and when the time came it became clear he wanted to be some kind of authority, the hot rod patrol tested him as they would do to anybody else and he failed.

Big daddy was directly responsible for throwing hot rod to optimus' team, but was actually distraught when the team was thought to be dead. When Cosmo's message reached the ark, the hot rod patrol broke into the wreckers' workshop and stole an experimental ship to come to earth as fast as possible but the ship was so fast they were unable to land it properly, stranding them on earth with the other autobots.

While on earth they fell under prime's leadership where they became rivals to the throttlebots. They would constantly test hot rod's team's patience among other things, every step they take, every kilometer they rolled, the hot rod patrol would be one step ahead, one city block away, until hot rod just couldn't take it anymore, locked himself up in his room and passed his duties to bumblebee, (don't worry he'll get better)

So anyway. about that name.. within their culture, new transformers just pick their own names, and usually, it's the first thing they ever do. as a result, most names seem very immature operating on wordplay or references, Changing names does happen, but it's rare and meaningful to them big daddy is called that because of a character from a movie she liked
