actually god i cant decide if i hate duets or grilled cheesus moreee like.
even just from a kurt stan standpoint, which is more tolerable? watching him have to accept everyone forcing their religion on him while his dad his dying in the hospital and he's said time and time again that he's an atheist and they arent helping, or watching him have to accept that everyone thinks he's a creep for trying to be friends with a straight boy and that he'll have to get used to being alone until he finds another gay boy that isnt embarrassed to be seen interacting with him???
and kurt song wise he knocks it out of the park both times with i want to hold your hand and le jazz hot. but we already know he can do emotional thanks to rose's turn, and le jazz hot is like a chance to see something new and also i was tearing up literally just from how talented he is lmao so i might pick that over iwthyh
and big surprise finn is the worst thing about both episodes. he was pretty much the only person not forcing his religion directly onto kurt but he also thought he had a direct line to jesus and could make any three things come true and he wished to become quarterback again instead of wishing burt would be okay. which just seems unforgivably stupid and selfish. but it also seems unforgivably cruel when he tells kurt that if sam sings with him, its basically a death sentence??
like the music is better in duets but at least the (kurt-centric) grilled cheesus plot is sad in a good, dramatic way instead of a bleak and completely un self aware way. god who wrote these episodes its been almost 15 years but im ready to fight them rn

I really want to highlight a couple of the doodles on Blitzø's calendar rn
The first one being this:
Tumblr media
So first off we got a lineup up of very cheerful dicks coming down from a rainbow. And these dicks are running to a derpy adorable doodle of Stolas. He even provided an arrow for clarification. It's so whimsical and joyful of an image.
And then we also get this:
Tumblr media
Which is a doodle of Stolas being happy and cheering at the point on the calendar saying MOON in fully capital letters and with a big circle.
All of this is just showing pure excitement and joy. it like genuinely warms my heart a little.
Like Blitzø really seems to enjoy and look forward to his time with Stolas! These are just so adorable I had to talk about them a little.

Huskerdust by episode 4: We had a misunderstanding that we then talked about in order to make up. We were honest about our feelings, let each other in, and even had a duet together! I, Husk, no longer feel like Angel is making fun of me by hitting on me, and I, Angel, no longer feel like Husker is rejecting me when he talks about boundaries. We are now kind to each other and get along really well!
Stolitz fans, 15 episodes in:

Disconnected | Aikoto Thoughts
Someone at Atlus decided to gift us an opening dedicated to Aikoto and it's filled with gorgeous symbolism and foreshadowing, so I'm here to sing it the praises it deserves
Tumblr media
Warning: This post will contain BIG spoilers for The Answer (Episode Aigis).
The opening starts with a blue butterfly which, in The Answer lore, is meant to symbolize Aigis' Papillon Heart. Meanwhile, Makoto is walking through a field of spider lilies which, in Japan, symbolize death and are believed to guide souls to the afterlife.
In other words: the opening starts with Aigis' heart chasing after Makoto, who has passed on 😭 But that's not all.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love how they have Makoto heading towards a door engulfed in light, because it perfectly foreshadows the Desert of Doors. Makoto is gone and Aigis doesn't quite know what happened to him exactly, and the answer to that question lies behind the door that Aigis will eventually choose to open. So through Episode Aigis, Aigis is doing just that: chasing after Makoto.
This opening sequence is even built to reference Aigis' recurrent dream where she runs after Makoto's back but can never catch up to him. As such, even when the camera shows us Makoto's profile, we can't see his face.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After this, we see Aigis waking up from her dream, crying. She turns behind her, almost like she's hoping to see Makoto, but of course, he isn't there.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
There's also a big contrast between the way Aigis' eye is drawn here and the way it's drawn in the P3R Opening. While the P3R opening emphasizes Aigis' robotic origins by showing the mechanisms therein, Disconnected does no such thing and instead emphasizes Aigis' human emotions in the form of her tears.
This contrast alone shows Aigis' development beautifully, but there's yet another contrast to be made. In the P3R opening, Aigis fell into a long sleep from which she would only awaken after feeling Makoto's presence on Yakushima. In Episode Aigis, we see her waking up and crying after losing him 😭
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We momentarily leave Aigis to be shown SEES with an overlaid Fool card which ends up shattering. The SEES Social Link is represented by the Fool, so the card shattering at the end perfectly encapsulates how the bonds they forged in P3R are put to the test by the loss of their Leader, Makoto.
After this we get one of my favorite sequences in the Opening, because the way the lyrics are cleverly matched to the visuals is just too good.
Aigis' is shown running through the desert of doors—the desert that was drawn to the dorms because of her pain.
“時の狭間”はアイギスに起こったさまざまな変化と繋がった、いわばアイギス自身が原因となって生まれた空間である。 The ‘Abyss of Time’ is connected to the various changes that have occurred in Aigis, so it's a space that was created by Aigis herself, so to speak. Source: Persona 3 x Persona 4 World Analyze Book
She is, literally and figuratively, lost in that desert. In her own pain.
Tumblr media
My heart fell and I can't find it, the lyrics say, and right after we're shown... Metis. The physical manifestation of Aigis' very own heart. She even pulls down her butterfly-shaped visor, symbolizing the mystery of her identity while simultaneously giving us the answer.
Tumblr media
Aigis' key falls and so does Aigis, and here comes the heart and soul of the opening.
Makoto and Aigis juxtaposed just like in the Episode Aigis Key Art.
Tumblr media
Just like in the key art, Makoto is looking at Aigis and smiling at her. Unlike the key art, here we can notice that Makoto is meant to be within the sea of souls. When Aigis parts her lips in surprise, bubbles of air come out, but there are none around Makoto.
This is quite literally Makoto's soul watching over Aigis, who feels like she's drowning without him 😭 She even looks lifeless until she notices him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aigis tries reaching out to him to no avail, just like in the movies.
Tumblr media
But Makoto simply fades away, his smile being the last thing we see. The way they show Aigis' hand losing its strength felt like a kick to the heart 😭
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As someone on Twitter pointed out, to make this even more painful, Makoto is smiling fully, looking happy and at peace. But since Aigis is looking at him upside down, his expression is less clear to her, to the point that it could even pass for a frown.
This ambiguity once again highlights that since Aigis doesn't know nor understand what exactly happened to Makoto, she can't be at ease.
Tumblr media
Then we're treated to another masterclass in symbolism. We see some of Makoto's life flash before our eyes; that fateful night Death was sealed inside him, followed by the moment he chose to meet his fate to protect his friends and the world. These two moments are shown within his Evoker, representing his duty. His fight.
The montage ends with Makoto's lasts moments—spent with Aigis with a peaceful smile on his face. The rooftop scene isn't shown within his Evoker though, but within Makoto's MP3 player. The one thing he never did without.
So within just a few frames, we get to see the beginning and end of Makoto's journey superimposed on his two most meaningful objects. The Evoker—his fight—which passes onto Aigis, and his MP3 Player—his heart—which is synchronized with Aigis' (as evidenced by she inheriting Orpheus), showing their last moments together.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I won't go into the sequence foreshadowing the Colosseum fights (and Erebus!), but it's worth mentioning that Metis' entrance is yet another nod to the fact that she is a part of Aigis. When we see Metis charge, we're clearly shown that there's no one but Fuuka behind her, yet Aigis appears behind her soon after as if she was always there.
After this, we get another shot that was masterfully synchronized with the lyrics.
I'm so numb, so lost without you.
And right as we hear that "you", Aigis summons Orpheus. Makoto's signature Persona, which comes straight from the sea within his soul.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Orpheus being there is proof that Makoto's soul is still connected to Aigis', that he has never left her, which is why he was shown earlier looking after her in the sea of souls. And as if to further draw that home, when Makoto fades into the sea of souls, they add a breaking shards effect.
The same effect that appears when Aigis summons Orpheus.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The opening then shows us a shot of the Empyrean Door, the door which shows the moment Aigis awakens to the Wild Card as well as Metis' own birth. As if on cue, we see the blue butterfly catch up to Aigis like a light in the dark, taking us full-circle to the beginning of the opening where the butterfly flies past Makoto's profile.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The opening ends with a single cherry blossom petal falling, a callback to the rooftop scene and to that last moment Makoto and Aigis spent together.
And also, an homage to the ending of the original The Answer, which also featured the cherry blossoms for a split second.
Tumblr media
TL;DR The Opening not only beautifully foreshadows Metis' origins and Aigis' own journey through Episode Aigis, it also highlights the connection between Makoto's soul and Aigis' and the fact that he will never leave her.
And this is all without getting into the lyrics which make all of this even more heartbreaking 😭 as soon as the official lyrics drop I'll revisit this post to properly match everything!

why do you hate Duets (2x4)?? 🤔
short version: i hate finn
long version: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6)
also just to be an asshole the music isnt even that great kalsjflskd like kurt's solo is iconic but i feel like people overhype the sancedes duet when it wasnt even their best one. tike's performance was cute and finchel's offensive duet was funny but dgbmh and lucky were kinda boring. the hummelberry duet is cute enough but obviously not why people are obsessed with the ep so idk
its really not that great and im the only one with the right opinion alksjfslk idk what everyone else's deal is. that's what i wanna know
OH also i get tired of everyone being like "sancedes should've won the competition!!" like yeah duh but also duh the whole point of the episode is that finn and rachel were rigging it so fabrevans won regardless so ??? use your head asfkls i never wanna hear that again lol

THE GIRLS ARE FIGHTING!! 🗣️
Did i expect alastor and vox being so petty towards each other? No. Did I enjoy every moment? HELL FUCKING YES!!
Alastor when sir pentious comes looking for a fight: I sleep.
Alastor when he hears vox essentially making a diss track about him upon remembering about his existence: Real Shit? 👀
These two are so damn petty it’s both baffling and hilarious, like neither one are acting like adults here, and I’m here for it XD
