Either Ming's mom does not know he is gay or she knows and is trying to force him to conform.

So I'm 100% supportive of whatever Ming does.

He is playing games on an Olympic level while Joe is thinking this is merely a spectator sport.

Ming shooting daggers across a pool as Joe does his job? Approved!

Ming basically implying Joe is a whore for speaking to other people, yet becoming more upset when Joe questions him? Approved!

Ming fucking Joe at his job on a break? APPROVED!

Ming making Joe sleep on the floor of his own house because Ming is jealous? Approved!

Ming still being obsessed with Joe's back, so he can think he is fucking Tong instead?

APPROVED!

Ming is perfect, and he is doing everything right.

Even when he is being the worst.

I cannot wait for him to fuck (up) Joe even more.

If toxic, why pretty?

#mi toxico #I love him the most #and I approve of everything he does #my stand in #my stand in the series #Ming is perfect #please don't disappoint me show #give me glimpses of how great he can be #but keep him bad #at least for a bit

"So we're a million years late?" "Probably more." "That's very late."

i would like to say my ideal PJO adaptation (if i was being physically forced against my will to have to pick a live action adaptation over an animated one for some reason) would be a combo like writing of the musical + casting of the show + visuals of the movies

BUT the show actually does have the playwright for the musical as one of the major writers for like three episodes and that did nothing for it. so...

#pjo #riordanverse #pjo tv crit #i do love the casting for the musical lots and lots though #it was really good #i do also have some nitpicks for show casting but they're largely inconsequential #like majority i very much enjoy and think are cast well #i only have one i'd say im actually disappointed with and that's Poseidon. idk he just feels. bland??? does that make sense?#like idk maybe it's the costuming but im not getting Sea God *or* Fishing Dad from him #like i think i kinda see what they were going for and i saw some gifs of him in another show where he plays a pirate and its like #okay. *little* bit better. but idk im just not getting Poseidon from it #in general most of the immortals in the show dont feel very Immortal(tm) but thats definitely mostly just the writing/show itself #not any reflection of the casting #my only other two are i would have liked plus sized Clarisse. i am VERY sad we didnt get that #Dior is a VERY good Clarisse though so i'm not too upset about it. i like her Clarisse energy. the yelling is fantastic.#my most controversial pjo tv take is im still meh on Walker. like he's fine. but like he's kind of Just Fine to me so far #its probably mostly the writing being bad but he hasnt grown on me as Percy yet. i can tell he has the energy though in interviews n stuff #and the main trio dynamic in interviews and stuff is *very* good. i just wish the show writing was better #because the casting IS very good but they have so little to work with. you can really tell theyre trying their best #i like to joke the show would be better if they just set the cast loose in the woods doing in-character improv #like its clear basically all of them know their characters SUPER well. id watch 8 episodes of in the woods pjo cosplay improv.

This was easily one of the best Lupin episodes

#there will be a rant in the tags that you can ignore #but it is so upsetting how modern/current lupin took away the depths of these characters and flimsily tries to restore their earlier depth #i'm one of those people who craves depth in what i watch and it's so difficult to like this franchise because it will be so close to doing #something interesting only to abandon it #this episode and part one as a whole was peak lupin in my opinion with each character having emotional depth yet flaws to overcome #yet modern lupin would have you believe that these characters don't desire to improve in any capacity #if we were to just focus on Goemon for example right here he shows depth with revealing hidden emotional maturity and empathy for Lupin by #comforting him and admitting he himself is afraid (which is a big deal for a character like him who is supposed to be unflinching)#but in modern lupin goemon will literally say that he's not afraid of anything and this is written without any hint of irony or depth #i'm okay with mindless entertainment and i understand that this is a series simply about stealing but the character assassination is so #disappointing #and when this series does try to be “deep” they pick the most triggering subject matter possible to depict to the point where it's #practically unwatchable (this is in reference to Part 4 and its constant SA plots as well as the rampant gratuitous child abuse plots #throughout the entire series)#i want so badly to love lupin the 3rd but it's a huge problem when fanfiction understands the characters better than the source material #lupin iii #lupin the third #lupin the 3rd #goemon ishikawa xiii #goemon #arsene lupin iii #jigen daisuke #daisuke jigen #fujiko mine #part 1

it shouldn't be difficult to understand why eloise fans who like her so much they put up with a show clearly stacked against her would want her to be a lesbian. it shouldn't be difficult to understand bridgerton is a romance show that looks down in every form of relationship that's not romantic (and ultimately patriarchal), and as such, when eloise's time in the spotlight comes, a love story~~ will be prioritised above all. it shouldn't be difficult to understand why people who actually like eloise as she is, as someone who clearly doesn't want to conform to her society's view of marriage and women, a lesbian love story would be the only escape they could envision from the show enforcing her book's romance.

and yet so many people insist on being obtuse.

#it also doesn't take more than two braincells to grasp that there's no fucking way bridgerton of ALL tv shows in the world #does TWO lesbian romances; and that that's why people might express disappointment on that front #(and I mean on *that* front because a lot of others are just being plainly lesbophobic about michala let's be fucking real)#talking to the void #my thoughts #antibridgerton for ts #eloise bridgerton #fandom nonsense #bitter lau tag

Okay I said I'd wait until the season was done before forming final opinions and I WILL but-

- what the fuck was that

#i am. Not Impressed #where is my depth from the books #the ONLY part that slayed me was sally and you know who talking at the end #and it was VERY well done #but the rest?? nah #pjo tv crit #im so disappointed in the show i cant pretend im not #full rants and reviews will come next week but. its not looking good guys #everything is being handled so badly and the characterization of Sally and the gods is my final straw #also continuously making Grover a fuck up bc. my boy does not deserve that.#im so irritated with how they handled the pearls #and with pretty much everything else tbh #but ugh #pjo show crit

happy sunday!! time to remember how small and alone and frightened and scared nie huaisang looks while held captive in qishan!

specifically, that moment when he finds out qinghe has been taken by the qishan wen, and asks that sentient sphincter muscle wen chao, "what happened to my big brother?!"

and wen chao just smiles at him and says, "what do you think?"

anyway it low key broke my heart!! someone give huaisang a hug 🥺

#mdzs #cql #the untamed #nie huaisang #let him have birds!! 🕊️#he's really going through it at this point in the narrative and I appreciate the work that cql does #to show how deeply vulnerable he is in this moment #mingjue is NOT a good brother to him to be clear but he is the absolute rock and foundation #upon which the stability of huaisang's entire world depends #he has always been able to rely on both mingjue's protection and the certainty that mingjue will always view him with disappointment #mingjue's love language for huaisang is protecting him and holding him to exacting standards he is incapable of meeting #now he is facing the prospect of having lost that protection forever #as well as any chance of having his inherent worth seen by mingjue for being precisely who he is #and not who mingjue wants him to be #and also #you know #ending up killed by the qishan wen himself #my (other) little guy 🥺

so i kinda want to talk more about this. The Acolyte and Qimir.

Qimir's true identity was a surprise to me because it felt like there were no smart hints at him being sith. none of the jedi got funny feelings around him. Mae didn't even recognize that the person behind the mask and her goofy accomplice were similar. he mentioned Mae's master would be mad she was using weapons because she wasn't supposed to but? he was her master and let her do it? the reveal seemed so out of left field, shocking for shock value alone. i read that his identity wasn't even supposed to be revealed until season 2, so maybe there was supposed to be more buildup to that moment? doing a subversive character who appears one way but is actually another takes a lot of nuance that just wasn't there. it's extremely hard to change a character from "just a lil guy" to big baddie. and yeah, i know he's in hiding and the whole point of this front is to trick everyone into thinking he is actually harmless (y'know aside from making poisons and whatever other malicious side jobs he does). he literally kills some of our main characters as soon as he's revealed (rip Yord, i'll miss you). but because of his previous presentation it just felt like a joke to me? their deaths all had this dreamlike, this isn't real quality to the point i have to remind myself that these characters are actually dead. i could not become invested in the rest of the episode because him being sith took me so far out of the immersion. idk if this is going too far in the crybaby direction, so i'll just say this characterization was not executed well in my opinion.

i must have missed it, because i was so confused, but apparently Kylo's theme plays after he's revealed? which i read was a very intentional choice. so, my preferences aside and lore cap on... is Qimir possibly the founder of the Ren? the concept that the knights of Ren are based on? This is the gist of the ideology:

which actually does track so far with Qimir's seemingly random choices. also, Ren, the person Kylo kills to become the leader of the knights of Ren, wears a helmet which is vaguely similar to the one Qimir wears. both helmets have the eyes entirely covered by metal. this would essentially make the wearer blind, if they weren't force-sensitive. "The Ren" is a lightsaber Ren carries on him (i know this is all very confusing, bear with me). perhaps as a tie into the sequels, Qimir's saber eventually goes on to become The Ren. this all could mean that the ideology Kylo attaches himself to all the way in the sequels has roots in sith history in the high republic era. i do love a tie-in, but i wish this reveal hadn't been rushed.

the person, the lightsaber, and the ideology are all called "Ren". don't know who decided that, but it makes explaining or reading about it impossible.

#sorry this is just a giant wall of text #i'm in my blab arc #also no shade to Manny Jacinto #i see that he was in the good place? which i did not watch. but i see a lot of fans excited to see him play a bad guy #and i am very happy for them!#it's a fun ride #i'm just disappointed with the storytelling and characterization #Manny does have the capacity to play a threatening character #but the writers fumbled the bag with this one #i have like no motivation to watch this show anymore #i will finish watching for the reason i started #Osha and Mae beloved #the acolyte #the acolyte spoilers #qimir #qimir the acolyte #kylo ren #ren star wars #knights of ren

I can just imagine the context behind that gai post, rip anyone who witnessed that.

im fascinated by this ask i have NO idea what ur imagining but it must be quite a vision

#yamswers #tanukibby #i wasnt gonna post these otherwise so ill add the pen and pencil drawings here #for me i imagined all three pieces in conversation with each other #so in svindapus' yamato drawing yamato does the pose in a fairly neutral stance hes just like “ok sure”#then in aldynafox's kakashi wants to get in on the goof and he takes it to a sillyseductive place #and then in mine gai sees kakashi “doing a challenge” (not like that. but. like that) + is like “HAH!!! not without ME my RIVAL!!!!!!!”#and immediately drops to the ground pops his shoulders and rear and is like HAH. get on THIS level!#which is why i posted all the images together. this narrative only exists in my head tho. and now on the tags of this post #fun fact in one of the omakes naruto buys a magazine bc it promises sexy models posing in the sealed insert #and when he cuts open the insert to look at the pictures. its all photos of might gai. oiled...glistening...showing off his muscles......#naruto is disappointed of course but im fucking delighted. i wanna hear more about might gai's modeling career.#maybe in modern konoha hed have a ninja!onlyfans

I'm more sad about young sheldon ending than I was about owl house, there I SAID IT

#other than being disappointed that they didnt get to do a full season 3 the way they wanted #i was so eager for it to end #because i just wanted all the canon information to be revealed so i could play in my sandbox in peace #the show cannot prove me wrong anymore and make my fics canon divergent #young sheldon does not work like that #young sheldon just shows me one boring episode after another every week and i keep watching it anyway because we are in a toxic relationship #but i need my weekly twenty minute young sheldon intake #and then i get to happily complain about it

Atla live action 😐

#thats my honest reaction 😐#to be fair ive only seen 20 minutes of the s1 finale bc my parents are watching it but. mmmmm kinda mid #like. the casting is definitely an improvement since the last time they tried a live action but it feels like the writing falls flat #or maybe im being harsh bc ive only heard negative criticism on it beforehand. but fr anytime u bring up the original its already #good and not just because its the original. so much fucking detail went into it to the point of someone noticing azula wielding mai's knive #to how well thought out irohs character is used as a way of uniting the cast especially as zukos foil #i heard that sokkas sexism was toned down and i have to agree that feels like a cheap move. like i get WHY they think it would be better #but its not about how that reflects on real world its about how it affects the story. sokka starts out as a misogynistic asshole because #it makes it that much more impactful when he changes. toning that down makes it flatter and makes his character development weak #and someone pointed out they didnt even make him wear the kyoshi warrior uniform and i know it feels like such a small detail but #come on man. they did that in the original because not only does it help him really walk in their shoes - wearing 'feminine' clothing and #makeup and having suki explain its significance but it also ties in with the shows theme of harmony and intersectionality #i was also disappointed when they had the fire sages explain how the water tribe draws power from the moon because in the original it was #IROH who explained it to aang and everyone else BECAUSE we as the audience is under the impression hes with the 'bad guys'#and it builds up to how he learned from the other nations which reconciles his past as a war general and his character overall #AND its an excellent starting point for the cast and audience to understand how the nations arent as closed off as you would think #plus you would think its only fire nation doing propaganda but they expanded on that with earth kingdom censorship and it WORKS #a lot of things in the live action also feel arbitrary like. they gave momo a near death experience for 5 minutes for no reason #im firmly on the stance of bringing back filler moments instead of putting major events right after each other so that u give your #audience a sense of time passing and to really absorb the story. but i think thats more like shock value than filler and yeah its a small #thing to gripe about but those things build up and its really annoying. the thing abt avatar filler moments is that however small #its at least meaningful. hell even the beach episode emphasizes how isolated zuko and his friends are as child soldiers #i also swore to never watch the first live action since it was that bad but i really liked the stylized tattoos they used for aang #anyway. those arejust my thoughts. im not gonna watch the rest because im a ride or die for the original aftr growing up and #rewatching it at least 20 times as a kid. but theres definitely room for improvement and i wish ppl wouldnt take it as 'better' just cuz #netflix is adapting it. i wouldve killed for them to just reanimate the entire avatar series and touch NOTHING ELSE no redub #no changes to the story. just reanimate the thing and leave the rest alone and youd make easy money just the same #ALSO its very jarring not hearing jack desena and dante basco voicing sokka and zuko cause their voices were the most recognizable to me #i get that its because its live action but im allowed to feel a little sad abt that. and uncle irohs accent was really soothing #yapping

thinking about louis giddy with excitement after the scala show telling helene how he finally managed to let go of his insecurities on how he might be sounding like at the very beginning of the show and gave into the great atmosphere and energy of the crowd oh my god you could see in his face how absolutely delighted he was 🥹

#like #judging by the timeline he gave at the doc #those performances he did in the us pre walls release #and even the festivals #he was always ready to bust #and always ended up disappointed with his performance #because he gets in his own head and by his perspective doesnt do as well as he does when he practices with helene #in his mind he knows he's able to but the anxiety gets the best of him #and even the footage right before the scala show #he couldnt stay still #opening the door #banging around #saying he's shitting himself #and right then he had one of those shows that seemed to have a big impact on his confidence #my heart could burst at that moment in particular #felt really proud of him and he looked proud of himself as well #aotv spoiler #burst***
