MY THOUGHTS FOLLOWING REVISITATION OF THE LISA SERIES!!!!! 🥳🥳

Starting off specifying that I'm going to be largely speaking about joyful here rather than painful or first. I have minimal thoughts on first (it was just Kind Of Okay) and too many thoughts on painful to include in this post at least (however, I did recently post a tier list of all my favorite painful party members if you're curious). I also am not taking the time to eloquently word anything since this is just my diary blog where I throw ideas at the wall and see what sticks. So dumping whatever here. Please know that while I have been a fan of painful for years, spare for the first 20 minutes or so of joyful I was going in completely blind

SPOILERS BELOW!!!!!!! Including painful spoilers since joyful is a direct sequel

While I did have a good time with joyful, I can definitely agree with most that painful is probably the best game in the series. One reason being that it's longer so you have more time for development, yes, but regardless of that I feel like overall the characters were treated with more care. And I have a sneaking suspicion that a lot of it has to do with the phenomenon of morally questionable girl characters always getting WAY criticism than morally questionable or even straight up evil guy characters. BOTH lisa and buddy get an insane amount of hate from fans and the creator alike (big surprise that the creator has dogshit takes with his track record /s) and it ultimately resulted in some of the character development and writing falling flat. LIKE. YOURE KIDDING!!!! There's so many people in this game that are undeniably and explicitly worse than those two, grow up. I only wish the same care that went into writing brad and his complexities went into buddy as well. That being said I still I remain the #1 buddy fan on earth. I forgive her and I think she's allowed to get even worse honestly. You go girl kill more people wooooo!!!!!!

^ I saw a post with this image earlier and yeah that basically sums my point up

One thing I was really excited about was rando!!!! He's always intrigued me since I was initially introduced to him in painful and seeing that brother-sister duo played up in joyful made my heart so happy. I'll have to draw him and buddy together eventually. As previously mentioned though, the writing of joyful was a little more sloppy than painful and as a result I do find myself wishing we could have seen more of the pair. If I wasn't already attached to him and buddy, I doubt all the drama between them would've had as much impact! Since they weren't elaborated on further! Not saying you have to kill rando's mystery factor or diminish buddy's abrasive and distant personality, but damn a little more of Something would've been helpful. And. Hey :^) ! Speaking of killing in the context of rando. WHAT THE FUCK. I HAD NO IDEA BUDDY KILLED HIM?!?!?!?! Indirectly I suppose, considering he was already super fucked up and she was acting aggressively out of impulse (hence her dropping him or punching him out of frustration rather than using her sword), but I still had no clue!!!! I knew he ended up dead somehow, it just hurt so much worse seeing how it actually played out. The siblings are fighting.......!!!!!

But moving on....

^ Genuinely do not get me fucking started on this scene at the end. Don't even let me say a single word. I cannot begin to describe my devastation. But I will say this: buddy's feelings on brad are no secret throughout joyful. She holds many conflicting feelings on him that she wrestles with constantly, but her hatred of him was no secret. And that is exactly why this moment in her confrontation with buzzo killed me. She still believes what he did to be noble; even if he was too late in trying to change, he still tried SO hard, both for her and himself, until the bitter end. She still respects and loves him, despite the accusations she throws at him. His dying words of if he did the right thing or not must haunt her..

On the topic of her confrontation with buzzo, I'm really glad he was developed so much in joyful. Villains that are evil Just Because are so boring to me, so to establish some actual lore rather than painful's vague hints at something greater was such a relief. He's much more of a compelling character to me now!! I looooved the history established between him and lisa ESPECIALLY in that after credits exchange the two have in one of the endings... but just because a characyer has become more compelling doesnt mean theyre not annoying as hell anymore. Of course circling back to the very first thing I said in this thought dump: all his character development has made a lot of people sympathize with buzzo a LOT (he is lame and stupid and FUCKING CRAZY LIKE HELLO HAVE YOU GUYS FORGOTTEN ABOUT THE WHOLE "USING LIVING PEOPLE AS EXPERIMENTS" THING AND CHILD ABUSE AND STALKING SOMEONE JUST TO TORTURE THEM ETC ETC ETC THE LIST GOES ON?!?!?!) in addition to villainizing lisa and making her out to be some horrible evil monster which is. So shitty. I think you missed the point guys. People can have nuance. She was also a horrifically abused child and not a full grown adult like buzzo became. Shut up

On an unrelated note: being that I'm deeply attached to the relationship brad and terry foster throughout painful, terry's lack of appearance in joyful hurts terribly. Granted, there are traces of him throughout the world (such as his hint posters put up everywhere, references to him in words/other character designs, AND THE FUCKING FAKE VILLAGE HE CREATED WHICH DID WAY TOO MUCH DAMAGE TO MY PSYCHE IT HURT SO BAD) but if anything that just made it Worse!!!!! Because I know in my heart how well he would've clicked with buddy

Oh!!!!! One thing I wanted to mention!!! Technically two. I was SHOCKED that big lincoln didn't play as much of a role as I initially thought he would!!! I always saw so much fan art of him looking super badass and scary and important. And while he IS important in the context of Olathe's history, story-wise he REALLY is not all that important or impactful at all. Did people really just go "this wolf guy is hot so let's draw him a bunch"???? If so I can't fully fault them because yeah he is. But I was soooo hoping for more. The second thing in the same vein of this sentiment was the fact that I had no idea beltboy wasn't a character in joyful!!!!! I kept expecting to see him!!!!! Bc I had seen SOOOOOOOOO much art of him and buddy or him and various other canon characters. YOU MEAN TO TELL ME HES FROM A FAN GAME?!?!?! Is he just that beloved??? Maybe I'll check it out some time I GUESS....

Before moving on totally from the topic of big lincoln, let me address one more thing. I'm of the belief that half-men/beast men/whatever the hell you want to call them do very much so exist in the world!!! In cases such as Lincoln or Carp or- hell- even Bo, they're intended to be humans with masks/helmets... but you're telling me that in a world where joy mutants and fishmen exist there's no possibility for werewolfs and shit? IDC!!!!!!!!!! ALL THREE OF THEM ARE NONHUMAN TO ME (though idk what Bo could even be..... some kinda undefined creature that's all I got)

Misc notes:

I REALLY like the fact that in some of the endings where we seen an adult buddy she has a baby boy. Admittedly I do Not think she would ever in any shape or form be fit to be a mom. Or have any desire to. Aroace buddy truther 4ever anyways. But even ignoring my own beliefs on her character I think it's beautifully ironic that as the only woman left on earth- as someone heralded as the world's "future" or "savior" constantly- has a baby boy, and humans are basically guaranteed to die out after that point. What a wonderful final touch to the story honestly, it wraps it up in such a pretty bow and mirrors the rest of the story beautifully

Seeing the green ranger/tooley was really cool :^) there's a lot of room in joyful to imagine "what if" scenarios (e.g. what if rando didn't abandon buddy) and tooley is definitely one of those cases!!! His personality is so vastly different than most folks buddy ran into; what if she had met him sooner, or what if she had allowed him to join her party like she considered momentarily?

That's pretty much it. I have a lot more feelings but that covers all the main bases and ideas nagging at my mind. Feel free to ask me about anything further if you're curious, be it on topics I covered or omitted. Or entirely unrelated to joyful/about the other two games instead!

Hey hey, lovely author! Happy (almost) new year! 🥳 I hope you’re going into the new year healthy, happy and loved (you & your work are for sure loved here) <3

So, my beautiful girlfriend came at me with this a couple days ago, “I’m crazy about you, you know? I don’t know what I’d do without you. I’ve never loved someone the way I love you” and I was wondering how the ro’s would react to the mc having said that to them?

I, personally, bawled.

Thank youuuu!!

HOW DOES IT FEEL TO LIVE MY DREAM?! AHHHHHH

ronan bennett

a surprised “oh” is his only response. he looks at you, head tilted and cheeks which darken considerably since you said what was on your mind for a long time. ronnie averts his gaze from you suddenly, very much aware that your eyes betray your adoration as you pick apart everything that makes him, well, him.

“i have to tell you,” he begins after a while, confidence renewed as he turns back to you and takes both your hands in his. “i feel the same way, perhaps i always have.”

“you can't be sure of that,” you say, however your tone is more teasing than challenging.

he shakes his head, warm brown eyes focused on your opal ones. if it's not for the sureness in his voice, you can feel it in his touch, lighting up every cell. and as you take a deep breath, you had never felt this alive before.

“i admit there are many things that i'm not completely sure in my life,” he starts, eyes flitting away for a moment in slight embarassment. “but you, i'll always be sure about you.”

and that was how you came undone that very moment.

célia dupont

she has never looked at you like this before, at least not as far as you can remember. so softly, so delicately, as if even gazing at you is an act of sacred loveliness. she moves forward, legs gliding along the floor and lips parted.

“i beg you,” she whispers against your lips. “i beg you to not say something like that.”

“why?”

“because i'm afraid i'll fall further than i already have, mon amour.”

“you need not fear about that,” you reassure, your smile seems brighter than moon to célia.

“you'll catch me?” she asks.

you shake your head, pressing your lips against her as she gasps and holds you closer. it's slow, pleading and a quiet moan slips past her mouth when you gently bite down on her bottom lips as you pull away. her hazel eyes are dark, a kaleidoscopic pair swirling with emotions too great to handle. but the most prominent one of them is the pure, unwavering sparkle of love.

“i'll fall with you, my dear lia.”

s bakkoush

their eyes widen in surprise, emerald pools searching your face for any kind of deceit. they find none, yet they keep quiet. this, this simple statement that has you pouring your heart out to them, why has this rendered them completely speechless?

“look at me,” you whisper and they obey. they don't know why but they do.

S's breath catches in their throat when they see your enchanting opal eyes running over their features. they feel naked under your gaze, like you're mentally undressing them and admiring every inch of them.

“magnificent.” you say, hands coming up to gently touch their cheek and S cannot take it anymore. they lean forward with no care for any consequences that may come. your lips meet in a hurried wave of desperation. S's hands claw on your hair, keeping you close and letting you know how much they appreciate everything you've said to them.

“not fair,” they mumble as you both pull away slowly at the same time. “how i don't even have a say in how much i yearn for you.”

i tachibana

they blink, words taking a while to register before you see that they're suddenly trying to avoid your stare by looking everywhere in the room except in your direction. oh, their heart won't calm down, what kind of sorcery is this? they've known no peace of mind since you had waltzed in their life with your crooked smile and fiery gaze that spoke of trouble, but now their heart decides to join the circus too?

you had given the hunter a fair share of trouble, they will tell you that much. however, they don't remember when... when they had come to enjoy your company instead of loathing it. when they had fallen for you without realising it completely. because when they finally gather enough courage to meet your gaze, you are pleasantly shocked at how they look look at you. it's like they're witnessing the first sunrise of their lifetime.

“you and your sweet words,” they say with a hint of grumble. “they won't get you out of the problems you find yourself in, you know.”

“maybe not,” you reply with a shrug, but still you lean forward with a beaming smile. “that's why it's a good thing i'm only trying to get in your heart, dear hunter.”

User's Canon, Film #263

Metropolis (1927), dir. Fritz Lang

A marvel. Every frame of this is ahead of it's time. Mind-shattering effects, a score that holds up better than many from less than thirty years ago, cinematography that feels like something that'd come twenty years later, etc. It'd be terrible not to mention the acting being the most captivating I've seen in a silent, and I've seen The Passion od Joan of Arc. It's put me in a stunned state of awe for it's entire two and a half hour runtime. Even among all of this, there are moments that stand out;

1. The first time 11811 gets into a taxi we get a montage of the bustling upper class life. The editing compliments this tonally, it's a numbing mess of activities 11811 would have never seen or engaged with otherwise. It's whiplash inducing. Having not seen that much of this time and knowing little of the editing techniques of this time... it's unbelievable.

2. The tower of babylon scene is a masterwork. It's potent unlike next to nothing I've seen - possesses a beauty only replicated by The Red Shoes' first dance scene and Autumn Sonata's heartfelt conversations. It's visually and emotionally something that appeals to my very core.

3. The birth of Machine-Maria has a level of special effects mastery I wasn't even aware was possible. Far exceeds anything of Keaton's catalogue when it comes to the "how was this made in 1927???" factor, which is the highest praise I can give.

I feel like I must talk about the score here more. It swells tenderly like no other. The drum beat pulsating during tense moments is like nothing else. If the score I listened with is the original, then I feel as though most of the film music of the past however-many years must lend it's entire being to this. Certainly one of my all-time favourite scores.

Thematically a lot of people seem to pull out the idea that this is revolutionairy for the most part - portraying class struggle with easily the most sympathy towards the worker, the industrial city as an unlivable hellscape - but that it abandons that principle for a class collaboration message. I disagree; I think this film never abandons it's revolutionairy nature. While it ends on what may seem a note of that, I think this is the wrong interpretation - only few minutes prior did we see Joh Fredersen on his knees, distraught at the destruction of his machine - it's an ending not of collaboration but of forcing those in power to settle, to come to an agreement benefitting the workers. One could say to that; "the mediator between head and hands must be the heart" is kinda the motto of the movie, and that's true, but I think the film itself disagrees with that. We hear a conversation between a scab and Joh where it is said "the only thing keeping the workers in check is their belief in a coming mediator" or something along those lines - in the text it explicitly says that the lie of the mediator (of class collaboration) keeps the working class in check, that it ultimately functions as a tool of the bourgeoisie.

Ultimately, I read this film more as a desperate call for action amid upcoming bad times. Lang was half Jewish - while the Nazi party was not yet the massive force it would become, they did have some power and it was clear they were becoming a bigger problem. To me this film comes off as urgent, a need for anything to happen to stop the worsening of conditions - even if it's just reform - but that we must be careful in doing so, as we can easily be led astray if we aren't cautious. I think, other than technical aspects, this is why it feels so ahead of it's time; while it may not be as bad or as clear as it was then - things will and seem always to have gotten worse when we don't fight in the opposite direction, towards progress. 10/10

note: this was my 500th film logged since i got letterboxd a couple years back! 🥳🥳 to 500 more!
