OKAY season 3 thoughts time. not as long but also s3 was like half the size:
worst thing first: the jay/naya/cole love triangle is so ...... bland. its got nothing going for it. like at this point in the show jay/naya honestly speaking doesn't really have a lot going for it. like we dont ever see them hang out or do fun stuff together as a couple or have any cute bonding scenes outside of jay being like "wowww nya hot" or anything. we dont have any real reason to root for them, so why they decided to introduce a love triangle is beyond me. like i guess its because they haven't done anything interesting with jay/naya and a love triangle is the easiest and blandest option possible, but like. come on. cole & naya barely interact in the season outside of cole fighting with jay and i'm really confused as to why we're supposed to think cole has any romantic interest in naya because they... have even less going for them than jay/naya. like man if we're gonna have a love triangle anyways i'd like to have any reason to root for at least one side. please. im not asking for much. make your characters hang out a bit and have some common interests and enjoy spending time together before you start telling me they're in love.
Tumblr media
number two: im kind of obsessed with how garmadon's moral standards consistently disappear when it comes to lloyd. like pre this season he takes his vow of non violence or whatever but after lloyd gets captured it just. goes completely out the window. moral compass: son
number three: circling back to ninjago's inability to write a compelling romance i dont inherently mind zane/pixel (and its certainly got better writing than the.... uh . competition, if you want to even bother calling it that) but i do wish the writers would start out these romantic relationships with a much more solid platonic base. like its not the end of the world but i do wish it was more compelling.
number four: ZANE GIRLBOSSING IT THIS SEASON FINALE!!!!!!!!!!! this is one of the few things i did remember from like 8 years ago and for good reason its because hes literally perfect in every single way
number five: im nitpicking here but i think lloyd should get to swear. i think he's earned it
number six: this is more of a general observation than anything else but one thing i think is really . weird. about ninjago's writing is that it seems that every season they give the ninja new cool epic powers and then by the next one they get taken away. and like i understand the reasoning for this - its like when shounen writers keep giving their protagonist increasingly world-shattering powers and the power levels just keep getting more and more ridiculous, because if your original villain is "conquering the whole world and turning everybody evil" then theres only so much you can amp that up as the seasons go on without tacking on too many powers that nobody should be able to stand up to the hero anymore - but also its just. its just weird because i dont think ive ever seen anything like this.
okay i think thats abouttt it im, as always, very excited to get to some of the things i distantly recall (namely in particular the giant green eyeball thing and possibly a tournament / survival island arc that i think was a thing (???)) i know lots is in store and all i really want rn is character interactions. thats my dream i will honestly forgive so much as long as im having fun with the characters and dynamics in a series
whuffā€¦. yeah. as much as thematically i love pixal and theoretically jaya could be extremely interesting. they do NONE of the work to make them so. zane <3 <3 babyā€™s first traumatic character death. he is. he really is. he deserves it all and so much more. whoeverā€™s censoring lloyd must get paid well bc that kid grew up in eternal middle school. kid knows more swear words than the rest of these socially isolated dorks let him use them
iā€™ve never really thought about that but,,,, holy shit yeah???? iā€™m nowhere near an active dragon ball fan but it IS baffling that instead of the usual shonen style they-just-keep-getting-new-powers and we stop using them bc a) we forgot they existed (which does happen a bit here, but less commonly) or b) theyā€™re just obsolete, in ninjago they EXPLICITLY get said new powers taken away. multiple times. is it a medium limitation?? is it just a quirk of the writers??? iā€™m gonna be thinking about this all night

What the Sea Wants, the Sea Will Have
It thunders in the night, lapping at the docks, making the wood of the ships atop its surface wheeze and creak. But no, thatā€™s imagined, she thinks. She couldnā€™t hear the ships from here, couldnā€™t know the men aboard them, but in her minds eye perhaps she sees them. Not huddled in cabins or in flimsy beds among the steerage. Theyā€™ll be in town tonight, re-firming their feet on dry land before they slip their sea legs back on in the morrow.
-
Hey, look, it's a brio pirate au!
To Face Unafraid
ā€œThe plan isnā€™t changing,ā€ she promises, raising her voice a little to be heard over the roaring opening chords of Last Christmas. ā€œWeā€™re still hosting everyone, and the kids are staying with us, itā€™s just - - somethingā€™s just come up which is - - I mean. Itā€™s really not anything you need to worry about. Iā€™ll tell you when I get home.ā€
-
Beth and Rio host their first Christmas together, only for an unexpected guest to stir up old, unresolved tensions.
Part 5 of The Center and Circumference
Navigate a Broken Path
Look, all Mickā€™s getting at is that - - yā€™know. Itā€™s not personal for him. He doesnā€™t count them, keep them, box them up or display them. Mickā€™s a professional, and killing people ā€“ itā€™s a part of this line of work. He knew it from the moment Pistol brought him on-side, and he knew it when he watched Rio kill Pistol and take over, and he knew it when he helped Rio take care of the body, and he knew it when Rio looked up at him after, his jaw bruised and his eyes too hard on his too young face and said you know what this makes us?
Yeah.
Mick knew what it made them.
-
Set after 3.08, Rio sends Mick to take out Mary Pat. Then things get complicated.
Playing House
ā€œWell, you did get me this bed too,ā€ Beth says, a little blissfully, letting her eyes slip shut as she falls down into her pillows, making Rio snort, and she feels more than sees the mattress dip beneath his weight, the heat radiating off his body as he crawls up over her. She blinks her eyes back open, looking up at him, and her heart almost stops at the way heā€™s looking down at her, his face soft and open, his eyes dark, and she exhales, her hand coming up to trace the newly shaved line of his beard.

Need a Little TimeĀ 
ā€œThatā€™s the thing with havinā€™ kids,ā€ sheā€™d hummed, smoothing her touch at his clean-shaven cheek. ā€œYou wait too long to see them, theyā€™ve done a whole lot of growinā€™ without you. Not always the good type either.ā€
And heā€™d rolled his eyes then, because he was young enough to think that shit was about him, a jab about not swinging round enough, not going to church with her for anything but the holidays, about the fact that Rhea was nursing Marcus out on the back steps without a ring on her finger, or about the cut on his chin nobody had been able to stop eyeballing since heā€™d gotten out of his car.
But the thing is, he looks at Marcus now and he thinks:
An inch, maybe two.
Thatā€™s how much taller he is.
-
A missing scene from 3.02. Rio reconnects with his son and his ex, but Beth is never far from mind.
Blue MoonĀ 
ā€œOh, youā€™re planning a beach wedding now?ā€ Ruby asks with a grin, the thing only faltering when the doors open again but - - no. Just a nurse, brandishing her clipboard. Still no Dean. Typical.
Beth hums, like she hadnā€™t even noticed, looking back at Ruby, her blue eyes bright, and thereā€™s something that feels like Beth in it again, something warm, impish, as she wrinkles her nose, considering, and Ruby canā€™t help it, the way it feels like a key that unlocks her.
- 10 times Ruby dances fic.
Cross Your FingersĀ 
Because the storage unit was empty again, and none of them had been able to make ends meet ā€“ not for Saraā€™s meds or Sadieā€™s hormone therapy, and not to salvage the husk of Boland Motors nor stop Beth and Dean from slipping further into debt, and so maybe Beth had thought about the fake cash, then maybe sheā€™d done enough research into making it, then maybe - - maybe sheā€™d done it, taking it out of her oven the first time sheā€™d pulled it off with a wide and honest grin.
Because right then it had felt good. To have done it. To remember it. To remember she was good at this, that what heā€™d seen in her had been right and true, even if he was only ever playing with her, even if the rest of it had all been a lie.

Two Shoes
ā€œYouā€™re the one who wanted the second set of eyes for this,ā€ she tells him curtly, louder, and Rioā€™s languid look quickly morphs into a disbelieving glare. He rocks his jaw, grip tightening on her hip.
ā€œYou wanna keep it quiet?ā€
ā€œYou wanna ever talk to me about a job before Iā€™m apparently halfway through it?ā€
-
Beth and Rio do a job - - badly.
A post-s3 mess.
Congratulations @pynkhuesā€‹!

Shield Hero 20 - 22 | Sarazanmai 7 - 9 | BSD 32 - 34 | Fruits Basket 8 - 9 | Demon Slayer 8 - 10 | OPM 20 - 21
Shield Hero 20
Motoyasu getting dragged by Filo was funnyā€¦not enough to get a proper laugh though. Just a smirk or two.
Stop narrating and just get on with it, Naofumi and friendsā€¦!
ā€œI was saying we should fight together all along.ā€ (from Itsuki) ā€“ Were you, nowā€¦? (skeptical)
Ass-pull! I call ā€œass-pullā€ at the power to swallow the phoenix flame! Seriously, when did the dragon get the opportunity to teach Naofumi how to do that???
How did Naofumi not die after losing so much bloodā€¦?
What does the Q even stand for in the queenā€™s nameā€¦?
Sarazanmai 7
The seagullsā€¦so fluffyā€¦
For some reason, I expect a fakeout, but then it never arrivesā€¦these boys are really connectingā€¦
I found some kappa croquette thingy online, but it referred to a ā€œShiki Cityā€ which probably isnā€™t in Asakusaā€¦
The shirtā€¦Kazukiā€™s shirt says ā€œfrogā€ but I get the feeling it also means ā€œreturnā€.
Shirohasu water. Itā€™s Irohasu in Japan.
Was the lyric to Kawausoiya (the otter song) ā€œgonna take ā€˜emā€ā€¦?
Nice ET reference, Sara.
Ballsā€¦not just sport entendre, butā€¦yā€™know. The sort of humour I donā€™t like as much.
Oohā€¦Keppi is shaping up to be the bad guy. But what plans does he have? Am I speculating too much and is he being framed? Hard to know until next timeā€¦
BSD 32
When Kyouka is eating the sundae, she looks like the Tofu Kyouka from Mayoiā€¦hmm.
Can I confess something? Before I saw the illustrations for s2, I thought Louisaā€™s hair was much darker than what it is in the animeā€¦hmmm, indeed.
I donā€™t think we were ever told (in the manga or the anime) what Louisaā€™s wish wasā€¦
This bit with Fyodorā€¦I donā€™t think it was in the manga.
Subarashi-sou is a pun on ā€œit seems wonderfulā€. That wasnā€™t in the manga, but itā€™s a great pun (because itā€™s right up my alley).
Fitz laughing at the neighbourā€™s TV wasnā€™t in the manga either, but thatā€™s just the anime directorā€™s humour peeking through.
ā€œBlalack Danielā€™sā€, LOL.
Ohhā€¦a quick Google reveals TJ Eckleberg is from the Great Gatsby. In there, heā€™s an eye doctor, but here, heā€™s an engineer.
George B Wilson is also from the Great Gatsbyā€¦Here be spoilers, butā€¦George dies in his original work too.
Manhasset is a place in New Yorkā€¦I assume itā€™s connected to the Great Gatsby as wellā€¦
Oh yeah! Random Poe moment. Thatā€™s in the manga, so Igarashi (or whoeverā€™s responsible for the terrible humour) doesnā€™t have to fake that bit.
Cue ā€œObjection!ā€ by Fitz, lemme guess. Even if I know the outcome and how it was done, Iā€™d like to have my memory refreshed (by stabbing in the darkā€¦and making an Ace Attorney joke in the process).
I already know, without googling, that Tom Buchanan is part of Great Gatsby as wellā€¦
Bank of Amerigoā€¦LOL.
Fruits Basket 8
ā€œIf you show up for the banquet nowā€¦ā€
ā€œThe banquet sounds just like the folk tale!ā€ Honestly, subbers, proofreadā€¦
Haa-kun and Haa-san. No distinguishing between them (aside from honorifics), even though theyā€™re two completely different people.
Hatoriā€™s squinty face wasā€¦hilarious, to put it simply.
Ohā€¦I forgot the dance seems to be something the animal of the year does. So if Yuki was 3 years ago, it makes sense Momiji is doing it this year.
Best seat in the house for a sunrise, huh?
Kimetsu no Yaiba 8
Iā€™ve seen Muzan being described as ā€œDemon Michael Jacksonā€ and now I canā€™t get that out of my head when I see himā€¦sorry.
Tsukihiko, huh? It translates to ā€œmoonā€™s radianceā€ or something like that. That name is appropriate for a bad guy, isnā€™t it?
This is the first time Iā€™ve really listened to the OST (aside from the OP and ED), so itā€™sā€¦really something.
Ooh, I didnā€™t realise until now, but Ufotable even imitated the paper Jump is printed on with the next-ep previewsā€¦
OPM 2 8 (OPM 20)
Erā€¦I havenā€™t mentioned it for the past few episodes, but Suiryu is hotttttttt. (No? I said that? Okay, next step.) Thatā€™s basically the only reason why Iā€™m watching anymoreā€¦I canā€™t seem to find anyone who thinks positively of this tournament arc enough to do reviews of it that I can read, which has made my own opinion of this beloved series go down the drainā€¦Also, if you werenā€™t aware, my taste lies not in Suiryuā€™s huge bulk, but rather in the fact heā€™s got long hair.
Didnā€™t Suiryu get pierced in the abs??? Whereā€™s the blood coming from his injuries??? Update: He does have injuries there, theyā€™re just not bloodyā€¦thatā€™s all.
The main criticism for OPM 2 is the fact that it keeps cutting between different events, so itā€™s hard to follow. Well, Iā€™ve had worse (see Concrete Revolutio) so thatā€™s why Iā€™m still here.
People say that clothing changes you ā€“ say if you put on a new outfit, you feel like a new person. (Of course, thatā€™s all glamorising and praising consumption, but thatā€™s beside the point here.) I think thatā€™s whatā€™s up with Max and Snek.
Shield Hero 21
ā€œā€¦the Shield Hero is worshipped.ā€
Really? Boob jiggle, at a time like this??? (Context: Malty is getting th slave crest painted on her.)
Wait, was there ever a Shield Church???
Okay, that felt like a real seasonal ending. What the heck is going to happen in the last few episodes, I wonderā€¦?
Sarazanmai 8
Chikai knows the real meaning of YOLOā€¦heh. Iā€™m only kiddingā€¦
To be honest, I think I like Toi best out of the main trio. I tend to like the boys in blueā€¦and no, I donā€™t mean the otter police.
Kazukiā€™s service provider is ā€œKappa Phoneā€, LOL.
When Reo held up the gun, I was yelling, ā€œEnta! Get it for him!ā€ (i.e. take the bullet) I didnā€™t expect him to actually do itā€¦
ā€¦and here I thought tragic yuri was common enough and we donā€™t have enough Tragic Yaoi Dudesā€¦
Notably, Toi was registered on Entaā€™s phone as ā€œKujiā€, while Kazuki is registered as ā€œKazukiā€ (katakana) on Toiā€™s.
Shots firedā€¦!
Update: I didnā€™t notice this, but the evil dude with kamome written behind him (I think itā€™s in this episode, but it might have been in the last one instead) must be based on a seagullā€¦because thatā€™s what kamome means.
Bungou Stray Dogs 33 (BSD S3 Ep 8)
I think it was around here I stopped reading the scans, because the series was picked up legally anywayā€¦but I can see the death flags for a certain Port Mafia manā€¦one who stands at the top.
As expectedā€¦butt shot. Igarashi (or whoeverā€™s responsible for that shot) likes butts, so between this and Sarazanmaiā€¦*imagines image of kappa!Kazuki holding a shirikodama* Thereā€™s absolutely no buts about it (LOL), thereā€™s no shortage of butts this season.
ā€œTo think that the rabbit being hunted would show its faceā€¦ā€ ā€“ I think itā€™s hard for you to say that, Akutagawa, when you yourself have no face in that frameā€¦
Why are both Akutagawa and Fyodor Naruto running today???
ā€œSo youā€™re doing this for that woman.ā€
What is ā€œMukurotorideā€? I donā€™t seem to rememberā€¦maybe I never learnt what it was. Update: Apparently a tower in Dead Apple is called Mukurotoride.
Conspiracy time! This book sounds like Kunikidaā€™s Abilityā€¦so imagine if it were under Dazaiā€™s nose the entire timeā€¦
Fruits Basket 9
I love how the synopsis for this episode goes, ā€œKyo fights Yuki, Yuki fights a coldā€¦ā€
Hatsuharuā€™s wearing such an ostentatious fluffy jacketā€¦LOL, I love it.
Holy cow (LOL), I forgot how old Hatsuharu isā€¦so that means heā€™s 15-ish, right?
Come to think of itā€¦I see Fruits Basket characters in Ro Te O, which I started writing at about this time in 2013. The Azrael of that time was a hybrid of Hatsuharu, Ritsu and Ayame, Tetsuya is basically Yuki and Ryou is Kyouā€¦hmm.
Apparently, Shigure had in the 2001 anime a song that went like, ā€œHigh school girls, high school girls, cute high school girls for me.ā€ So thatā€™s where it was??? (Context: I havenā€™t seen Fruits Basket 2001, but read the entire manga.)
Kimetsu no Yaiba 9
Recap time, recap timeā€¦so the ladyā€™s in the back room and Tanjiro conveniently forgets the man is in the basementā€¦? Wuh?
Moya was complaining about how repetitive this show can get when it comes to the script (i.e. it repeats itself because it doesnā€™t trust its audience, but I think thatā€™s because this is originally serialised on TV week by week that people may forget if theyā€™re not bingeing, taking notes or following the manga). Iā€™ll talk more about that in my KnY collab post, I guessā€¦
When Yushiro said ā€œwatch your backā€ā€¦he really meant it, huh?
Temari are the balls, but kemari is when you kick the balls.
ā€œā€¦the eyeballs on his hands are creepy.ā€ ā€“ LOL.
Shield Hero 22
The ep title just says ā€œHero Councilā€ā€¦not specifically that there are 4 of them.
My streamā€™s been buffering more than usual, so I went ā€œlike mother, like daughterā€ before Naofumi didā€¦
It wouldā€™ve ben massively funny to hear Melty call Malty either ā€œTrashā€ or ā€œB****ā€ā€¦especially the last one, because thatā€™s always a fun way to end a sentence (especially for a girl as young as her). Update: She does, but the way she does it isnā€™t as funny as I thought it would be (and she doesnā€™t end her sentence with her sisterā€™s new name).
Wait, I thought they got rid of her slave pact??? I thought it was only for the duration of her trial that she needed it for.
Lā€™Arc and that lady seem like theyā€™re foreshadowing for laterā€¦hmm. Update: The next-episode synopsis says ā€œyesā€. So does that new visual.
Sarazanmai 9
I canā€™t believe this showā€™s almost overā€¦That means I gotta get a move on with RobiHachi, but to be honest? Non-anime things are probably going to kep me busy untilā€¦a few days from now. So Iā€™ll get RobiHachi watched then.
Characetrs are dying en masse in this episode, arenā€™t they??? I saw a spoiler that (well, SPOILER) Chikaiā€™s gonna die, but I donā€™t know about Enta or Keppiā€¦Update: To be honest, I thought Chikai was going to become the next monster ā€“ a gun monster, perhaps. Maybe now that Iā€™ve finished the episode, heā€™ll become a real zombie. (Hey, see what I did there with the boldingā€¦? Howā€™s that for hiding spoilers, eh???)
Oh yeahā€¦I forgot Entaā€™s sister was Kazukiā€™s teacherā€¦
There was a sign behind Masa that saidā€Hinode Asakusaā€ ā€“ ā€œhi no deā€ meaning roughly ā€œunder the sunā€ or ā€œleaving the sunā€.
Tokarevā€¦? The gun? Gun monster, maybe? Is this a critique of the American gunā€¦(exaggerated voice) Nah, canā€™t beā€¦this is Japanese.
Lionelā€¦Lionelā€¦for some reason, that name in relation to soccer seems familiar...I just canā€™t put my finger on who it reminds me of, though. Update: Is it, perhaps, Messiā€¦? Yes, I think thatā€™s the guy I was thinking ofā€¦!
Awā€¦Iā€™m not crying, you areā€¦But these words were running through my head before Toi chucked the bag of money away and yelled, ā€œF***!ā€: ā€œEverything I do, I do it for you.ā€ Isnā€™t that cuteā€¦?
Bungou Stray Dogs 34
ā€œā€¦one by one?ā€ Junban means ā€œsequentiallyā€, so I donā€™t see why you have to use the phrase ā€œone by oneā€. Or ā€œone at a timeā€ would also work.
Hardbankā€¦to contrast Softbank (a phone company in Japan).
Face-stealing aliens strike againā€¦(re: Atsushi)
Oh flip. This reminds me of my Kunikida ficā€¦yeah, I bet you donā€™t remember it.
Hey, this dude! Apparently heā€™s from one of Kunikidaā€™s stories. I really am approaching the end of what I know of canonā€¦*gulp* Update: Oops, we already passed that partā€¦
I wonder if the real Fyodor could play celloā€¦? Or is this just a thing to make him ominous and villanousā€¦?
The cross on the wall behind Kunikidaā€¦makes this show more like Eva than Kekkai Sensenā€¦exquisite. Absolutely exquisite, isnā€™t it?
Another cool cross, behind Tanizaki!
Whatā€™s a tatamigatana? Also, I didnā€™t know other people could be synchronised using Doppo Poet and Ranpoā€™s deductionā€¦
Does Kouyou mean (by ā€œthe one I most despiseā€)ā€¦Chuuya? Or herself? Itā€™s definitely not Ace.
Kimetsu no Yaiba 10
Headpats for Yushiro as well! Headpats for everyone!
Thereā€™s a lot of Tanjiro being terrified in this episodeā€¦
Waitā€¦Kizuki? I thought they were the 12 Moons? (Well, ā€œtsukiā€ means ā€œmoonā€, but then whatā€™s the ā€œkiā€?) Update: The ā€œkiā€ means ā€œdemonā€, so the Kizuki are the 12 Demon Moons.
Being alone with the bodyā€¦thatā€™s always a scary thought in murder mysteriesā€¦for the people who dissect them to determine the cause of death, that is.
Considering the name of the episode is ā€œTogether Foreverā€ā€¦nup, I donā€™t see Nezuko and Tanjiro separating anytime soonā€¦
The Kasugai crow is what happens when you canā€™t turn off your Google Assistantā€¦or GPSā€¦or Siri.
If Tanjiro knows the name of his crow, how do the crows get their names? Do their trainers (is that the right term for a crow breeder in this caseā€¦?) give them names?
OPM S2 Ep 9 (Ep 21)
LOL, that one shot of the antsā€¦JC Staff really donā€™t care about this series, do theyā€¦?
I kinda forgot about Genos after a bit more than a weekā€¦sorry, I was watching other anime in between. (More than usual, at least. I started playing Chibi Tamago ā€“ a forum game for AniList where you collect badges for watching anime - thatā€™s why.)
Did he (Pri-Pri Prisoner)ā€¦store his phone in his buttā€¦?
