#i don't watch the spinoffs

every show I watched weekly for 5 seasons or more I've had moments where I was less into it and almost wished it would end. every one. except NCIS. been watching that show for 20 years and I do not get tired of it. it makes absolutely no sense but it's my constant. it's been there every week since early in my high school career when I was watching it dubbed in french. and it's still there into my thirties when I watch it in the original English as it first airs. when everything goes to shit, when I want it all to end, when I don't know what I want or enjoy anymore, it's always there. I get tired of other shows but not that one.
#ncis#my post#i don't rewatch it#i don't write fanfic about it#well i have once or twice#i don't go into the fandom#but i always watch it#i don't watch the spinoffs#except hawaii because of the lesbians#like grey's i stopped watching and caught back up later#i wished it would end at least twice including now#i let all the other crime shows end and didn't start new ones because i don't feel like that genre right now but i still like ncis#like if i want to watch a crime show i rewatch bones or criminal minds#but ncis i watch and enjoy every week and don't rewatch because 20 years is a lot of show to rewatch#i have the dvds for the first 11 seasons#I'm not sure they even make dvds anymore#and i don't know what streaming has it probably one i don't have#i don't know just thinking about how long it's been of watching this show#and i think the secret is to never get too invested in it

The Boys 4.5 // Myxomatosis (Philip Larkin)
#billy butcher#the boys#i watched the entire thing sans spinoff in the last two weeks and i have been just a little “instead of brain there is butcher” since#lot of thoughts on the whole thing.#body horror cw#i don't think this poem quite fits his thing. this is more of an association

obligatory "Oda thank you for sharing this world with us" post
#fan letter got me sitting down and realizing there will be nothing like THIS in another decade or smth#the scale of the world the portrayal of emotions from side characters we don't know the name of from even the main story to spinoffs#the weight of a character's decisions that can ripple throughout the world and how this is all because of what its built upon already#like. look. i write stories and i think up of fantastical worlds myself but i don't have the opportunity to share it with people#and i know this is the case for some people as well that have entire worlds in their heads but can't get it out for some reason or the othe#so seeing just. someone make theirs of this volume and magnitude is genuinely always so inspiring even from when-#-i watched it as a little kid.#to have something of yours that you so clearly love running for this long because your story managed to capture hearts of SO many ppl that-#-it's not axed in between/urged to rush in any way?????? to have the freedom to tell the story you needed to tell? man.#tldr thank you for making me dream#eiichiro oda#one piece#(“tag heavy” IDCCCC im in my feels leave me alone)

hot take, but the "i dump your ass" line wasn't even funny and was just super ooc…….
#out.#(for that matter i also think the neverending story scene was so horrible and was the most unnecessary thing in the history of televison.#literally gives me second hand embarrassment. but i don't think people are willing to hear that yet...#and suzie's family. that was a shit show. people rly say they should have their own spinoff.... like i was embarrassed watching that crap.)#BUT ANYWAY.#ik jane was really looking up to max in that scene and all.#and we know she learns by doing and copying but. it was more about the break of trust between mike and jane that made her so upset.#but idk... jane just saying i dump ur ass has never ever sat well with me.#WHICH DOESNT MATTER bc that whole story isnt canon obvi for my jane BUT.#yeah. hot take over.#and i think jane would want to know WHY mike lied to her. she would want to talk to him and understand. rather than just physically sweepin#it under the rug.#rather than moving on. jane would not be able to have an enjoyable night knowing that mike lied to her. she wouldn't just walk away from it#with a snarky comment.#and it's scenes like this that show just how lost the d*ffers get with her character.#and do not understand her after s2!

As much as I really like Rebellion's ending and what it does with Homura's character I really don't care for her outfit in her demon form. There's the obvious thing that I find it uncomfortably revealing for a 14-year-old character, yeah, but also I am simply not a fan of dresses with a bunch of holes and cuts in them like that. I don't think it looks very good and all I can think looking at it is that it seems weird and uncomfortable, especially compared to Homura's usual magical girl outfit. It's disappointing because I usually really like the outfit designs in Madoka Magica.
Reminds me of that one black dress Homura wore after she realized that she was a witch and was talking to Kyubey- I enjoyed the look of that dress a lot more. I kind of wish her demon outfit looked something more like it or was maybe an expanded idea of it.
#madoka magica spoilers#character design is also why i'm a bit apprehensive to check out the spinoff series#i don't like the character designs i've seen nearly as much#i will probably one day watch it though still#rambles

Pokémon have zero self-preservation skills. They have to be told to dodge oncoming attacks.
They've become completely reliant on the humans who have captured them and force them to battle in an attempt to show the world how good they are at 'training' these things in these fabricated fights. They are completely devoted to their trainers, for good or for bad, and engage in these battles with no reward for themselves should they win.
Guess what my daughter's current hyperfixation is.
#pokemon#I'd watch a Team Rocket spinoff#just them doing every day things like gardening#I don't care#they're very entertaining

I did some Souichi studies because I’m love he <3 (Patreon)
Bonus:
Here are the Studies compared to their Originals btw :3
So like, not a joke, not an exaggeration, I’m pretty sure this is my favourite panel in the entire Challengers/KoiBo continuity (and I decided to draw it first lol - it’s ‘cause I have such big feelings about it!!) It just hhhhhh, it so perfectly encapsulates everything he’s feeling in that moment; disbelief, betrayal, uncertainty, distrust, conflict - every moment of love he’s built up to that point has been thrown into immediate relief to what he’s been told and it’s all there, right on his face, it’s such a masterfully done expression ;; <3 I legit cry every time I reread, that whole scene is just so good, I could actually talk forever about his relationship with Morinaga in that one moment
The rest aren’t nearly so intense lol, mostly just grabbed from moments when I thought he was being especially cute <3 Concerned lad! His hair is so swoopy in Challengers hehe <3 <3 It’s actually even fluffier in his super early-on appearances, which are also excellent >:3c But I still like his KoiBo look best ♪ You can also see it’s a bit of a challenge to make his face as slim as he actually is, just thicken the lines inward until it almost looks right! Lol
I love this panel haha, everyone so silly chibi’d out. You can also really get a good look at how ridiculous his hair is, look at how the tuft that’s tucked behind his ear joins up with the tie! How does he tie it up like that, consistently?? How is he allowed in labs like that!! He’s ridiculous <3
Confused and blushy Souichi ft. Morinaga, I just kind of filled in the details he was covering lol. I love Souichi being dumb and having no self-awareness <3 He’s actually quite intelligent and emotionally aware a surprising majority of the time! But his blind spots leave big gaps haha
I love when he has his eyebrows in a relatively neutral position, he’s normally so grumpy! He looks so friendly even with just a neutral expression :D Plus his hair!! The way it’s communicated to be thin and feathery by being able to “see through it” to his lab coat, ah <3 Handsomest
Shy boy <3 I also really love the way his hands and wrists are shaped, such cool lines ah
I could’ve sworn he and Morinaga were like, almost the same size in Challengers... I guess Morinaga did have a second growth spurt, but still! It’s just an excuse to see him being cute!! Oh noooooo (lol)
Grump man <3 Beauty boy <3 His hair flows so beautifully!
It’s also fun to see a younger Souichi in a flashback, rather than in the Challengers style haha. He was a mess by himself, he’d hate to hear it but he really only does well with others haha. I also love how this scene is from the POV of one of his admirers, Momo is such a good girl and she’s so right <3
He’s being such a meanie to his sister in this scene lol, he’s the worst! <3 I was going to leave it at that, but adding his little frameless-glasses stem holes really made it look like Spamton’s googly eyes and I about lost it lol
#Doodles#Koisuru Boukun#Warning: Mushy design and characterization love ramblings under the cut lol#My beautiful trash boy <3 <3#So I actually have a folder specifically dedicated to just Souichi's beautiful face/interesting behaviours lol#They're mostly collected from the last big reread but I have some from years and years and years ago!#The last big reread also included Challengers because Morinaga >:| Fucker Supreme (derogatory)#I needed to look at his characterization from original to spinoff#But Souichi is the only one with the dedicated folder lol#He deserves it <3 Little insect man <3 <3 Poison nerd Engrish enjoyer Idiot man <3 <3 <3#He actually really fun to draw??? I ran out of room on my paper but I was like ''Well I could fit just one more...Well maybe just one more!'#I ended up with several half-finished sketches because I just straight up could not fit any more on the page lol#If I'm able to capture even a little bit of the reasons that I find him so beautiful and lovely and interesting in my own art then I'm happy#His hair! His eyes! His caring nature! His opinionated blind spots! His childishness and his trauma and his self-expression hhhhhh#I love him so much what a beautifully flawed character <3 <3 <3#Watching him grow into himself for over a decade has been such a wonderful experience as a reader hh#Plenty of bumps along the way lol but I don't think I could stop loving him even if I tried hehe

Ya know what fuck abc for not picking up lone star too! And fuck fox for cancelling it in the first place!
#i didn't really care when i first heard the news cuz i hadn't watched in years#but im actually so upset now!#i know i know most shows don't stay good past 5 seasons so it's probably for the best#but have you considered i want infinit Carlos content!?#I'd be happy if they had the spinoff be about Carlos but i doubt it. im not sure they know what a treasure they have with him

Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake finale spoilers without context
#all im gonna say is that if you know you know! lol#iykyk; not sure if I should tag this as spoilers or if this is incomprehensible enough to not need one 😂#you're welcome to take guesses on whats going on with adventure time fionna & cake if you want lol to avoid spoiling anyone though I'll#neither confirm nor deny your guesses lol#some of these are very specific references so I think i'll just post it lol#by the way; I'm counting episodes 9 and 10 as the finale since they dropped in pairs of 2!#all of this is seen in those two episodes though; in one way or another; you'll see if you haven't yet! plz go watch it on HBO Max!#boosted numbers & stuff could get us more adventure time spinoff series or even a F&C season 2 (though I don't think one is needed tbh)#I wouldn't be upset though if they somehow came up with more material to cover for a season 2; there are little loose ends left over#but I'm not sure it's really enough content for an entire 2nd season unless we're going to lava world; apocalypse world; tiny world; etc.#the lich could also come back for however many times he has if it's a different instance of him from across the multiverse; but idk#tried to get a little bit of everything in this post without giving it all away; hope I did okay in that regard!#if you can tell me the collegehumor reference without looking it up; you get a cookie! 🍪💜#mine#op#adventure time#fionna and cake#atimers#casper & nova#cheers

hi hi vanessa! what anime have u been watching recently? looking for recs to kill some time (may or may not also be for fetish purposes ehehe)
Hi anon!!! This is such a fun question, and I'm sad to say you caught me at a time where I have a very boring answer to it T.T It's already late April, but I've finished a total of two (😭) animes this year. (So few, I know! I wish I had more to recommend you 💔)
Between work and everything else, it's just been a hectic time... (I also have a couple I have to get around to finishing 😭😭 I've been putting off watching the last few eps of J//JK s2, because the friends that I've watched the rest of s2 with have been busy. I also started Fri//eren back in January; I just haven't found time to get back to it 😵💫)
I did finish Cher//y Magic! 🍒 (Though if you're sending me this message, I feel like you probably have already seen it around?). It's such a cute, fluffy romance/slice of life, that—despite its fantastical premise—is actually quite grounded, imo... a very cozy watch overall <3
I've also been wanting to watch Shi//guang Dai//liren (Link Click) at some point! I was also talking about watching Sa//saki to Mi//yano with a friend (if you're reading this, hi!)
Anime-wise, I have nothing to offer you on the snz front 🙇♀️ I have been very bad about setting aside time for myself to watch things. BUT if you ever watch any of the aforementioned shows, and want to talk abt them with someone... or if you want to watch/read something with me book-club-style... please feel free to hit me up :D
#ask#okay no one should read these tags but#i recently finished reading th//e su//nshin//e c//our//t which is like a spinoff for a trilogy that was written 10 years ago#i read the original trilogy way back#my relationship with the series is too complicated to get into. i'll just say: if anyone writes anything for that series i will be 👁️👁️#SPRINTING OVER TO READ. esp if it's for j//ean. but i don't expect any interest#i feel like i have been walled off from enjoying media in a snz sense... or even just hyperfixating on things w the intensity i used to 😭#and that's been true for awhile#i think a part of it is that i am already spread too thin over all the things i have to do atm#though maybe i'm just getting older haha#and i think a small part of me is reserving emotional space for y + v because i REALLY WANT TO HIT 75K WORDS FOR THEM 😭😭😭#i am singleminded i know... & bad at emotionally context switching#as a side note. i recently started watching re//born r//ich w my partner! it's not an anime but i loooveeeee a well written smart mc >:)#okay i think i am done now... very sorry for rambling 🙏 thank you for the excellent question anon

Thought about Mando and went through like twelve stages of grief again.
#every possible direction they could've gone#and this is what they choose#unsurprisingly i keep looping back around to anger#i mean it's sw; disappointment was inevitable#so i am feeling very dead dove 'i don't know what i expected'#but fucking still#to use your unique and much-loved show as a launch pad for a deluge of spinoffs to capitalize on the popularity#and then just try to cram a bunch of that into the show when some get canceled#after doing the worst rush job resolution of your literal season finale in a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SHOW#it's like watching the car wreck in the blues brothers#just piling up and piling up and piling up the fuck-ups#and now that you've rushed your main characters to the end of their arc prematurely#you shove them in the background as set dressing#it's maddeningly inept
