reading last chap of s2 after covering several chapters yesterday, also since it's end of the season, for once I put some bigger serious thoughts at the end

who the FUCK ARE YOU PEOPLE???

OH MY GOD KARAKA IS TSUNDERE

there are OTHER slayers?? (except fucking ex white) if they mentioned it earlier i must’ve forgot

that’s not how to talk to your daddy greatest

-(no i don’t like jahad i’m here to bully karaka because i tend to bully my faves)

*punches table* rabbit boy. get out. i have not sighed so loud in my entire life

oh i see why people were calling them furries.

listen, you either give us catboys or leave.

please don’t say “creatures” if it’s like your furry way of talking

that guy: not to worry he has a permit

gustang: *pulls out paper* “i can get whatever i want”

i’ve read “gremlin” im dONE

you know what maybe i should just go to bed rn

also cat is destroying my door dear lord

ok so it’s the next day now

“ahahaha”

“I can’t read...”

SHIT I HAVEN’T NOTICED RACHEL GOT TELEPORTED

erh i’m dumb on this one, why have they made this parallels?

I don’t want to tell you this but he just reminded me of chara undertale...

wangan: onii-chan!?

wait what

ouch

soooo karaka believes wangan’s story even w/o ring then?

*spits tea* ow goddammit not the feels

anyhoo that’s the end of s2, siu put a note about break but yeah that was years ago, so pretty sure i’ll be starting s3 even now but i won’t be posting it rn

anyhoo well that was suprisingly long season? my usual knowledge of “Seasons” is usually from anime, and these tend to have seasons with usual 2 or 3 arcs but they usually don’t go in so many different directions

personally it feels like half of season 2 is a season on it’s own tbh, and maybe that’s how anime could adapt it, perhaps? although 12 episodes would work best with just setting on saving bam from fug.. either anime would make the seasons in parts like aot did with s3 or have lots and lots of seasons, since probability of anime getting 24 episodes has gotten awfully small those years

As for the opinions on season 2... I see first half and season on it’s own, so let’s start from this - Bam getting rescued, and first time they enter hell train. First of all, Bam as Viole is absolutely nailing this, and I wouldn’t mind having Viole as protagonist to be honest, although it would be indeed sad as Viole is not the happiest person, but damn is he a cutie. Is he a baby.

Wangan - oh dear I dunno if others saw the plot twist coming, but I did not - I have absolutely been viewing him as Bam’s counterpart to his Viole side, just a complete shounen protagonist who’s completely ordinary. Boy was I w ro n g. I only remember vaguely being sus about him when Viole has mentioned his ring, but that was about it, as it was never mentioned again, I forgot about it. And then it appeared Karaka has this ring. Boy was I shooketh.

I don’t think I exactly liked the further progression though until Wangan’s story was revealed - until then he kinda fell into background, and then soon again as said story was revealed. However I do know Siu has big plans with him, and at this point I know Siu’s writing enough, so I don’t have much worries about his further progression

Also sadly there was no Karaka-Wangan brother bonding

Next in mind I have Khun, naturally, as he’s my icy hot favourite. I don’t really know why even, when I saw him in anime I was quite indifferent about him. So if you want me to explain why do I like khun, I can’t really explain. Other than when he was becoming my favourite, I remember being dissappointed in myself and making a post to myself “Goddammit don’t fall for him just because he’s your type” and he’s not even really my type in terms of personality, but at that point I was jsut shrugging it off, maybe it was his childish over-dramatic posture contrasting his cold personality because I just hit that protect button

Also yes I may be basic just slap me already

And before I’ll start talking: girl’s scout outfit, really? I support my son and I can understand his edgy and k-pop fashion... But I’d be lying if I said I understood him for shit at that moment

So now that we’re past back... I was actually recently re-reading first chapters, and damn, the difference of Khun before Bam was rescued - was rather intriguing. He was laughing his ass off at silly things (his team being dressed silly) but oh sweetie did it feel weird.

Next, I keep thinking about him on the train obliberating Rachel - despite popular opinion, his cockiness was actually getting on my nerves, and only thing saving it, was his reasons were Bam - so in other words, at least he wasn’t an asshat for his own sake.

I much liked his personality during second half of the season 2 - as much as there wasn’t much khunbam content - seems like Khun has grown as a person,as his cocky aura much disappeared as he became more understanding towards his own weaknesses. Now his “cockiness” became rather entertaining if you catch my drift, because despite his jerk nature, he *is* well aware of his flaws, and I just like that. Not that he *wasn’t* considerate of that already, but the hidden floor really did wonders on him.

And dear my, his relationship with Bam. I’ll be honest, at some point during reading first half of season 2, I felt like I was reading romance story between him and Bam. It was all the little things, like playing with Rachel just to know Bam’s past, Khun noticing Bam was uncomfortable with Viole wig, Khun being near Bam as he spoke he has no reasons to live, Khun standing up for Bam when strangers tried to use him and Isu asked for his help but skipped the asking part, Khun looking back to Bam telling him he’ll be back when going to catch the fish on train, Khun trying to talk to him when Bam locked himself up in his room on train, constantly checking and finally waiting in his room when he notices Bam is gone, Khun noticing lack of Bam’s presence before going to floor of death right *after* he just said he feels like world is ending if Bam isn’t here, and then beeming when Bam does in fact appears. And that’s just all the stuff I can remember right now, and I mean the *little* things. The big things are the ones we know well - “So that I can always chase” and the famous world one I don’t have to quote.

Second half didn’t have much scenes, but there were few that did stuck to me - Bam’s line to Kiseia how he understands why she hates him, but he’ll do everything he can to stop her if she plans to harm Khun *again*. Because it seemed like Bam kind of moved on from Khun getting stabbed by his sis, but that panel did show that not only it *did* stay with him, it also stayed with him that it was *Kiseia* who hurt him.

Another scene was the one I don’t think I need to talk about much, as we all pretty understand - moment of Khun and Eduan awkward father-son bonding. Khun tries to close himself off, but Bam reaches out, and forces him out of comfort zone

But what mostly stuck out to me, was his behaviour after Khun became kinda dead. It was the way he spoke to endorsi and rest, how *he’s* going to take khun and follow the *harder* path, and anyone who *don’t want to come*, can take the easier one. Basically, he was prepared to go the harder route completely alone because it meant taking Khun with him, and he was just, prepared to go without any help, he only optionally added that others can join if they *want* to.

Another interesting scene, was Hwaryun calling him out, when few of his teammates has been captured, due to them taking the different path from Bam - but if they are meant to escape with Khun, they have to leave them, and when Bam gets steamy about it, Hwaryun goes - “I didn’t choose the teams. You’ve chosen them based on who matters more.” It’s so subtle, so cruel, yet intriguing - one of the most worst way to tell someone he cares for someone else more - she’s only saying Khun mattered to him more, but in this context, it sounds accusing, making Bam’s decision selfish. And that’s something that’s absolutely in my mind - his care for Khun, called out in “accusing” matter - as something that stopped him from commiting other decision - as something he’s willing to priotize others over.

So I can’t stop thinking about that, and truthfully? That last “take care of Khun after me.” line.

But the other line from bam’s monolouge that gets me is “Wait a bit more Khun... I’ll wake you up again.” That “again” gets to me, but I can’t really explain it. Maybe it’s the way he looks at Khun longily.

So this covers their relationship, and I think I’m only gonna mention Bam now real quick and perhaps Eudan and Jahad, because the post’s getting long and I don’t want to make *this* post specifically long.

I don’t have much to say about Bam, as Bam himself doesn’t have much to say about him. He didn’t have much definying features or characteristics besides the time he was Viole, but you have to hand it to him for growing after meeting after she pushed him for the first time - it was still hard to say anything about him though. For several chapters later - as well, except he did manage to develop the traits of self-sacriface, and actual resolve to save everyone - because he talks about *always* and sure fights for his friends, but who doesn’t? Where his personality shines in this regard, is in the moment of Bam saving his enemies with no questions asked, and White by the way definetely helped Bam to develop his personality for sure.

But either way I’m here roasting Bam, while my goal was to say, that it was in the hidden floor where I’ve actually started recognizing him as his own character - it was in the moment of him having final confrontation with Viole, I finally saw what kind of person he was. And I liked it, he became a solid character in that moment, accompanied by proper flashbacks and exploration. And Bam continues to be then written quite consinstely as in one of later flashbacks, he indeed says, what he said to Viole a while ago - he’s afraid of being alone. Not only that, the internal conflict was added - is he a monster? is he not? It’s simple conflict but can do wonders, and it’s not something that Bam even thinks about, it’s more of a really subtle conflict within a character design itself, rather than Bam.

So basically now Bam indeed feels more of an actual character

And before I’ll end it for now, I want to mention the meeting of young Eudan, andyoung Jahad - truth to be told, I don’t have most unique feelings towards them as anyone sees the point - the adventures with pure intentions turned evil, aka how everyone can turn evil. What makes me more interested, is how Siu has used it for storytelling... Main characters having a big meeting with the younger versions of villians? Haven’t seen that one yet, so I’m interested what direction Siu will take with it, since this is my first time seeing it, so I’m really curious how exactly you can utilize such scenes in terms of long planned story, and not only how they affect story as a whole, but how they also affect just aspects of it as well.

So, that’d be it on my commentary and small “opinion” on season 2. It wasn’t like I exactly wanted to put it here, but I wanted the end of season 2 to have more meaning to myself. But not only to have a meaning to myself *just* for my own reasons, but because I didn’t want to leave the whole season with nothing but small comments there and there. I wanted my experience altogether to be something bigger - but not only experience, but my “legacy” as well. So, that’d be about it x2, if you’re still reading, congratulations, I appreciate that, and you get an apple

Is there the full list of brandersons favourite games reposted somewhere?

i dont think so? or not that ive seen. u can literally just sign up for the newsletter on his website but screw it ill just post them for u. it sure was a TRIP scrolling past these to get to the interlude though. undertale is on this list.....im shakign at the thought that adolin was based off ff10 tidus but i cant get it out of my head now

#10: Katamari Damaci

I love things that make me look at the world in a new way. Katamari did this in spades. It is an imaginative, bizarre vision with unique gameplay. It is like nothing else in the world and I love it for all its strangeness and occasional lack of gameplay polish.

I was transfixed the first time I played it, and have looked forward to it being remade and rereleased on multiple different consoles. I love the cute—and somehow creepy at the same time—storyline. It feels like a fever dream more than a game sometimes, and is probably the closest I’ll ever get to understanding what it’s like to do drugs.

#9: Undertale

This is an oddball on this list because I think it’s the only game that is not a franchise from a major studio—but is instead an indie game, which I believe was originally funded on Kickstarter.I loved how this felt like a novel as much as a game. It was one person’s vision; a single story told really well, with a huge amount of personality. The humor was just my kind of wonderful/terrible, and I was instantly enamored with the characters.That probably would have been enough, but it is a nice deconstruction of video games as a medium—and has not one, but multiple innovative gameplay mechanics. Together, the package left me enamored. This is a work of genius that I feel everyone should at least try, even if it ends up not being for them.

#8: Fallout: New Vegas

I have played all of the core Fallout games, and I was one of the (it seems few) who was really excited when it moved from turn-based tactics to first-person shooter. While Fallout 3 was good, it didn’t have the charm of the first two.New Vegas delivered on everything I was hoping to see. The charm was back, the writing sharp, the quests imaginative. The gameplay was engaging and branched in a variety of directions, the gunplay was solid, and the atmosphere immersive. I of course love the first two games in the series—but New Vegas combines everything I like in gaming into one package. (As a note, I own the Outer Worlds, and am looking forward to digging into it. Consider this item on the list a recommendation of other Obsidian games—like Knights of the Old Republic Two—regardless of genre, as I’ve found them universally to be superior to their contemporaries.)

#7 Super Mario World

When I was eleven, I flew (alone, which was very exciting to me) from Nebraska to visit my uncle Devon in Salt Lake City. Before I left, my father gave me $200 and told me to pay for my own meals while on the trip—but of course, my uncle didn’t allow this. At the end of the trip, I tried to give him the money, which he wouldn’t take.I mentioned my dad would take the money back when I got home, but that was okay. Well, my uncle would have none of that, and drove me to the local mall and made me spend it on a Nintendo Entertainment System. (This uncle, you might guess, is an awesome human being.)Since that day of first plugging it in and experiencing Mario for the first time, I was hooked. This is the only platformer on the list, as I don’t love those. But one makes an exception for Mario. There’s just so much polish, so much elegance to the control schemes, that even a guy who prefers an FPS or an RPG like me has to admit these are great games. I picked World as my favorite as it’s the one I’ve gone back to and played the most.

#7: The Curse of Monkey Island (Monkey Island 3)

I kind of miss the golden age of adventure gaming, and I don’t know that anyone ever got it as right as they did with this game. It is the pinnacle of the genre, in my opinion—no offense to Grim Fandango fans.This game came out right before gaming’s awkward teenage phase where everything moved to 3-d polygons. For a while after, games looked pretty bad, though they could do more because of the swap. But if you want to go see what life was like before that change, play Monkey Island 3. Composed of beautiful art pieces that look like cells from Disney movies, with streamlined controls (the genre had come a long way from “Get yon torch”) and fantastic voice acting, this game still plays really well.This is one of the few games I’ve been able to get my non-gamer wife to play through with me, and it worked really well as a co-op game with the two of us trying to talk through problems. It’s a lovingly crafted time capsule of a previous era of gaming, and if you missed it, it’s really worth trying all these years later. (The first and second games hold up surprisingly well too, as a note, particularly with the redone art that came out a decade or so ago.)Also, again, this one has my kind of humor.

#6: Breath of the Wild

I never thought a Zelda game would unseat A Link to the Past as my favorite Zelda, but Breath of the Wild managed it. It combined the magic of classic gameplay with modern design aesthetic, and I loved this game.There’s not a lot to say about it that others haven’t said before, but I particularly liked how it took the elements of the previous games in the series (giving you specific tools to beat specific challenges) and let you have them all at once. I like how the dungeons became little mini puzzles to beat, instead of (sometimes seemingly endless) slogs to get through. I liked the exploration, the fluidity of the controls, and the use of a non-linear narrative in flashbacks. It’s worth buying a Switch just to play this one and Mario—but in case you want, you can also play Dark Souls on Switch... (That’s foreshadowing.)

#5: Halo 2

Telling stories about Halo Two on stream is what made me think of writing this list.I’m sometimes surprised that this game isn’t talked about as much as I think it should be. Granted, the franchise is very popular—but people tend to love either Reach or games 1 or 3 more than two. Two, however, is the only one I ever wanted to replay—and I’ve done so three or four times at this point. (It’s also the only one I ever beat on Legendary.)It’s made me think on why I love this one, while so many others seem to just consider it one of many in a strong—but in many ways unexceptional—series of games. I think part of this is because I focus primarily on the single-player aspects of a game (which is why there aren’t any MMOs on this list.) Others prefer Halo games with more balanced/polished multiplayer. But I like to game by myself, and don’t really look for a multiplayer experience. (Though this is changing as I game with my sons more and more.)I really like good writing—which I suppose you’d expect. But in games, I specifically prefer writing that enhances the style of game I’m playing. Just dumping a bunch of story on me isn’t enough; it has to be suited to the gameplay and the feel of the game. In that context, I’ve rarely encountered writing as good as Halo 2. From the opening—with the intercutting and juxtaposition of the two narratives—to the quotes barked out by the marines, the writing in this game is great. It stands out starkly against other Halo games, to the point that I wonder what the difference is.Yes, Halo Two is a bombastic hero fantasy about a super soldier stomping aliens. But it has subtle, yet powerful worldbuilding sprinkled all through it—and the music...it does things with the story that I envy. It’s kind of cheating that games and films get to have powerful scores to help with mood.The guns in Two feel so much better than Halo One, and the vehicles drive far better. The only complaint I have is that it’s only half a story—as in, Halo 2 and 3 seem like they were one game broken in two pieces. And while 3 is good (and Reach does something different, which I approve of in general) neither did it for me the way Two did, and continues to do.

#3: Final Fantasy X

You probably knew Final Fantasy was coming. People often ask if the way these games handle magic was an influence upon me. All I can say is that I’ve played them since the first one, and so they’re bound to have had an influence.On one hand, these games are really strange. I mean, I don’t think we gamers stop quite often enough to note how downright bizarre this series gets. Final Fantasy doesn’t always make the most sense—but the games are always ambitious.Ten is my favorite for a couple of reasons. I felt like the worldbuilding was among the strongest, and I really connected with the characters. That’s strange, because this is one of the FF games without an angst-filled teen as the protagonist. Instead, it has a kind of stable happy-go-lucky jock as the protagonist.But that’s what I needed, right then. A game that didn’t give me the same old protagonist, but instead gave me someone new and showed me I could bond to them just as well. Ten was the first with full voice acting, and that jump added a lot for me. It has my favorite music of the series, and all together is what I consider the perfect final fantasy game. (Though admittedly, I find it more and more difficult to get into turn-based battle mechanics as I grow older.)

#2: Bloodborne

Those who follow my streams, or who read other interviews I’ve done, probably expected this series to be at or near the top. The question wasn’t whether Souls would be here, but which one to pick as my favorite.I went with Bloodborne, though it could have been any of them. (Even Dark Souls 2—which I really like, despite its reputation in the fandom.) I’ve been following FromSoftware’s games since the King’s Field games, and Demon’s Souls was a huge triumph—with the director Hidetaka Miyazaki deserving much of the praise for its design, and Dark Souls (which is really just a more polished version of Demon’s Souls).As I am a fan of cosmic horror, Bloodborne is probably my favorite overall. It really hit the mix of cosmic and gothic horror perfectly. It forced me to change up my gameplay from the other Souls games, and I loved the beautiful visuals.I am a fan of hard games—but I like hard games that are what I consider “fair.” (For example, I don’t love those impossible fan-made Mario levels, or many of the super-crazy “bullet hell”-style games.) Dark Souls is a different kind of hard. Difficult like a stern instructor, expecting you to learn—but giving you the tools to do so. It presents a challenge, rather than being hard just to be hard.If I have a problem with Final Fantasy, it’s that the games sometimes feel like the gameplay is an afterthought to telling the story. But in the Souls games, story and gameplay are intermixed in a way I’d never seen done before. You have to construct the story like an archeologist, using dialogue and lore from descriptions of in-game objects. I find this fascinating; the series tells stories in a way a book never could. I’m always glad when a game series can show off the specific strengths of the medium.In fact, this series would be #1 except for the little fact that I have way too much time on Steam logged playing...

#1: Civilization VI

This series had to take #1 by sheer weight of gameplay time. I discovered the first on a friend’s computer in the dorms my freshman year—and I can still remember the feeling of the birds chirping outside, realizing I’d been playing all night and really should get back to my own dorm room.That still happens, and has happened, with every game in the series. I have a lot of thoughts on this series, many of them granular and too specific for this list. (Like, it’s obvious AI technology isn’t up to the task of playing a game this complex—so could we instead get a roguelike set of modifiers, game modes, etc. to liven up the games, rather than just having a difficulty slider that changes a few simple aspects of the game?)I’ll try not to rant, because I really do love this game series. A lot of people consider IV to be the pinnacle of the series, but after V unstacked units—and VI unstacked cities—there was no way I could ever go back. If for some reason, you’ve never played this grand patriarch of the 4X game genre, it’s about starting with a single stone-age settler who can found a city—then playing through eras of a civilization, growing your empire, to try to eventually get offworld with a space program. (Or, if you prefer, conquering the world.)It’s a load of fun in the way I like to have fun, and I feel like the series has only gotten better over the years. My hat is off to the developers, who keep reinventing the series, rather than making the exact same game over and over.Now, about that request for difficulty modes...

there are runner ups but for the sake of anyone whos on mobile and cant get past a read more (first of all omg im SO sorry) ill refrain. anyway he thought WHAT loz game was the best before botw?

#mix between HARDCORE judgement and like. yea. yea ff10 was pretty good wasnt it #but i dont think its anywhere near the best of them #long post #im read mores dont work imm so fucking sorry this is so long #MOST of these games are good its just so wild its so wild its SO wild #asks #Anonymous

Map of the Soul: 7

After a ~315 day drought without new music and a comeback from the legends, we are finally back with MOTS: 7! It been a hot minute since ive done a album review (solely for myself LMAO) so lets get back into it bc this album is a home run

Interlude: Shadow. Here we have the extended version of the interlude. can i just say that the lyrics to this masterpiece are so real and true. its not suga speaking nor is it agust d, this is min yoongi speaking of his internal conflict with the celebrity life, which is heartbreaking. on another note, the visuals of the mv are stunning and the ending--dont u just wanna go apeshit??? truly a great addition to the album!

Black Swan. sister black swan has been with us for a month-ish now? it still bumps. HARD. i blasted this to and from my drive to work to the point where i was scared if id get sick of the song but that didnt happen. the way how its hard to pinpoint when and where a member would sing/rap because they INTENTIONALLY wanted the voices to blend as if they were one body. this is the group’s narrative on how no matter how passionate one is on a certain craft, when they lose that drive, its like a death. and it is up to themselves to spark that love and interest once again. a very relatable story across various media, talents, skills, etc.

Filter. When I first heard that this was a jimin solo showcasing the many sides of Jimin, i thought that it was going to be a sad ballad to kind of follow the theme mots: 7 seemed to give off; thought that it would talk about how he has to force personas onto himself to appeal to the masses, but it is the complete opposite. Jimin is all the faces he puts on, he can be cute, sweet, and caring Jimin but he is also a sexy, flirty young man that can attract any living being. how he switches from falsettos to a lower register voice is beyond me, what a versatile one he is! <3

My Time. Moving onto jungkook’s solo, I knew the lyrics were going to be sad especially when it seems to compare himself to others his age. How he speaks about how fast time runs for him, how his childhood and current life is not of the average 22 year old (LIKE UM HERE I AM, SAME AGE AS JUNGKOOK AND IM NORMAL AF while he’s out here breaking records?? WOW). but the life of jungoo can be a bit overwhelming, completely understandable. I just want our boi JK to know that he can be himself and live freely despite such different circumstances. On another note, the groove of this track is so GOOD. it reminds me of Ari and ugh i LIVE for this jam

Louder Than Bombs. When the track started, I could totally tell Troye Sivan helped produce it, it has such a unique sound that only Troye would use. It sounds like this song would totally be on a movie soundtrack IDK WHY. like, i can picture it during an apocalypse movie sldkjg im not completely sure what the meaning is to the song (bc im big stupid) but i feel like its a track saying that no matter the struggles, they will continue to sing confidently, strongly, and wholly to us endlessly. beautiful, just beautiful.

ON. Moving on to the title track of MOTS: 7! I’m very picky about strong anthem-type songs but ON is actually p addicting HAHA There’s a background sound that repeats in the back that sounds like Sans from Undertale, aint that wild LMAO but anyways, the Manifesto Film was crazy good. The drums, the band, the breakdown of it all? UNBELIEVABLE. Also, JK’s vocals during the bridge? H O W. That breakdown tho...oof, that was amazing. They still dance with the thirst that rookie bts would and i think thats why ppl are so drawn to them no matter how many years pass. Fun fact: the choreographer of ON as well as Dionysus actually is from my city in Hawaii and we went to the same high school THATS WILD. the talent she holds!

UGH! Rap line ATE this shit, are we KIDDING. An ode to all the hate comments that we receive, u can see how fed up they are. They made POINTS and we all agree, its the damn law. The way how they opened up with a gunshot, we knew it was coming. Everyone joked about how we bout to hear some gunshots on this album, well they threw ALL of it on this track. Can i just say that Hobi’s verse tho? it hits different, it really do. When they went “ahem, ahem. ahem, ahem-ahem, YOUR AHEM. AHEM-AHEM--” OOOOOUGH i felt that shit!! god, imagine this in concert...the building aint ready!

0:00 (Zero O’ clock). Now we have the vocal line track, we knew they were bout to present some vocals. Great sound, slow and reflecting. Not the first track I’d listen to but it is a great listen. The lyrics tho get to me. The way how they comfort us and say that life can be rough but you can be happy. no matter what happens, with the turning of the clock to 0:00, its a brand new day and we can make the day better. what a powerful message that all of us need to hear once in a while. we will be happy guys, we deserve to be.

Inner Child. Tae’s solo which is a message to his young self. I expected a slow ballad filled with his warm vocals reminiscent of Winter Bear, 4 o’ clock, and Scenery but boi was I wrong. He has this sunset glow voice that wraps u so warmly and the sound is just so happy, pure, and innocent. Its a hopeful message to his younger self on how we will change and be the amazing person we want to or will be. I was sobbing at this song, I tell u. It was 2:00 am in the morning and I was sobbing into my pillow. Imagine comforting your past self that everything will be okay and to take ur hand, it will be all worth it in the end. When he sang “ur my boy, my boy, my boy, my boy!” Ugh...the tears!

Friends. When I heard this was a vmin duet expressing their friendship with each other, I knew it was going to be so emotional! I didn’t expect such a fun, poppy sound tho. They truly are soulmates, the love they have for each other is so wholesome and real, it truly exhibits the love I have for my friends--they’ve been with me through thick and thin, during happy and sad times; the amounts of serotonin they give me is just HHHH. The way how Tae and Jimin have been friends since high school until now is just ugh...we love it. Towards the end when they started singing “you are my soulmate!” towards each other, i started sobbing so hard because WOW. the shivers i felt, this song made me so happy and full!

Moon. Next we have Jin’s solo which is an ode to us army’s. And on another perspective, this is a song from the moon (jin) to the Earth (army)--i have tears in my eyes. The lyrics especially got me in a chokehold and made me sob, the way how he says that he will always be by our side no matter what, the same way how we are there for him...god. The chorus really gets to me, it feels so happy and thankful and I just want to tell Jin that I will forever follow him and the boys. They’ve been with me for years now and I will continue to support, love, and listen to them. Ily to the moon and back, our moon.

Respect. I didn’t expect a Namgi duet but HERE WE ARE. Goddd when i heard that i was SO EXCITE. They’ve known each other for +10 years now and they never miss the chance to tell everyone that they’ve been friends for that long. Not @ how they disliked each other at first but grew to be so mf close, to the point where their family. Ughhh, im so uwu rn. Im so happy, so so happy that Nams started it with AYO SUGA; i SCREAMED. Also, i heard that they recorded it in one take and i could see how much fun they had--especially considering that their rap styles are completely different. Even tho in the song they joke about not knowing what the word Respect means, we know...we just KNOW the high amounts of respect they have for each other. As they mentioned before, Yoon’s respects towards Nams’ leadership and care towards everyone and Nams’ respect towards Yoon’s love and passion for music and producing. Peak comedy is Yoongs overloading on autotune during his parts to the point where its intentional. Bless Namgi.

We are Bulletproof: The Eternal. I felt like a CLOWN when this track started. Like everyone, i thought we were going to have a third installment similar to that of the strong, hip-hop, gunshot-filled part 1 and 2 of we are bulletproof, but we were met with soft vocals and rap. The lyrics tho get to me. This truly was a song about their entire journey and i felt like I experienced all years with them. They’ve been through so much and the way how they sang “we are we are together/forever bulletproof!” They are proud of where they came from and it has stuck with them till now. They are such real people...i cry. ALSO the “We were only seven, but we have you all now.” Whenever i see pictures of their debut fanmeets/concerts vs now its just crazy. imagine singing as an entire being during concerts when they start “OOOOH OH OHH” im so immensely proud of the feats they’ve reached and im excited on what they do next! <3

Outro: Ego. The way how he started it with the fitness gram pacer test just like in previous albums, ugh what a throwback! this song is such a Hobi track, its fun, dance-inducing and its just so FEEL GOOD. the way how he switches flows and is capable of doing so is *chef’s kiss* the way how he speaks about the path he takes is difficult but he doesnt regret it...SOBS also the mv??? UGH SO CUTE. the flashbacks too;; i cry

ON (feat. Sia). With this track, there’s not much extra I can say, all my opinions still stand with the original track wit ot7. I jokingly told my friend that if Sia is gonna be on the track “hey nanana’ing” the same why Halsey was only “oh my my my’ing” i will ctfu. and...welp, that was what happened. I do love Sia tho so props to her!

Overall: I initially thought that MOTS: 7 was going to be a dark, ballad-filled album but it was anything but. It had so much fun songs, the lyrics are again, so deep and meaningful--it pulls at your heartstrings. It felt so raw, personal, emotional, and i love it in all its being. The boys will continue to amaze me no matter what they put out and i forever and endlessly will support and love them the same way they do for us. MOTS: 7 is a masterpiece and im in love

#trish speaks #map of the soul #7 #seven #mots #mots 7 #map of the soul 7 #bts #i do this as a tradition at this point from...maybe WINGS album #so idc if its just me rambling and being mf cringey i just needed a place to rant about good music and cool ppl lol #yall can ignore this dis just a thing for me to let out my emotions lmao #anyway imma go back to drawing haikyuu pretty setters

II Animatic Ideas

I HAVE TOO MANY OF THEM SO THE ONES I PROBABLY WONT MAKE WILL BE PUT HERE IN CASE SOMEONE WANTS TO MAKE IT OR I LOOK BACK AT THIS LIST.

Yee. This a looong post.

1. Familiar - Steven Universe

I was thinking it could be about MePhone4 and his memories. The first “Mom” could be the standards he needed to meet and the other moms could be referring to Steve Cobs or something like that.

2. I’m not a Robot - Marina & The Diamonds

Another MePhone one! This time, it could focus on MePhone and Cob’s relationship. Mainly MePhone trying to show Cobs that he, unlike a robot, can make mistakes and can’t meet all of Cob’s expectations.

3. Little Game - Benny

This one’s about Paintbrush. I mean- do I really have to explain? It fits really well in my opinion.

4. I am not Nothing - Beth Crowley

Suitcase standing up to Baseball and Nickel would really fit this song. With her thinking they were just taking advantage of her and the whole misunderstanding, this would fit.

5. Two Player Game - Be More Chill

Fan and Test Tube NEED to sing this song. I feel like this would sorta be something to look back at their friendship. Perhaps it could end or include a flashback of them looking at the stars? It’d probably take place in the space of time before Mine Your Own Business but after Alternate Reality Show and they’d somehow be playing a video game and just hanging out. (I really want this to happen if you couldn’t tell but I wanna do other animatics too)

6. Control - Halsey

-Inhales- I HAVEN’T SEEN SOMEONE MAKE THIS YET AND I’M SHOCKED NO ONE HAS. We need one for Paper and Evil Paper. This song can basically sum up what was happening to him in season one like omg.

7. Stressed Out - Twenty One Pilots

Really fitting considering how the competition has been . . . That. Oh, how nice and simple times were before! That was back when the worst thing that happened was a petty fight that wouldn’t cause them to be mad for long. Wouldn’t the II cast want to go back to those times? -Sigh- If only.

8. Worst Day of my Life - Alec Benjamin

Yet another MePhone one! (I’m really interested in his backstory XD) This one could focus on his life with Cobs and leaving by the verse after the first chorus and eventually erasing his memories near the end before the final chorus.

9. Inner Demons - Julia Brennan

This could fit for both Suitcase and Paper and frankly, I feel like this sums up what they were experiencing (but to be honest, I feel like it fits Suitcase more since Paper didn’t really seemed scared of Evil Paper but instead scared of how he hurt others).

10. Secrets - One Republic

I feel like this song (especially the chorus) fits who Taco was. It could start with her and Pickle and progress to her story with Mic. It would a be a great song representing how she’s staring to come clean and being more honest and open.

11. I’m the Bad Guy - Wander Over Yonder

First of all, if ever I make it, I would use the Undertale cover mainly because I’d find it funny having Taco sounding like an evil little kid the entire video. Yes, this one’s for Taco. It’d be for Cobs but then “I’m not your best friend or distraught and clueless” sounds a BIT too much like Taco. Okay, a LOT like Taco. Anyways, this’d show a different side to her where she’s an evil piece of Mexican food and everyone is her peasant. Just imagine Pickle going against her. AGH my heart.

12. Be Somebody - Thousand Foot Krutch

I feel like I should end this on a happy song considering all the drama I packed into the previous ones. I imagine this one would focus on the contestants helping each other and growing as people. Bringing out the best and worst in each other while demonstrating how far they’d go to win.

---

S’yeah. Feel free to use these (and check out the songs, they’re really good). I’m not sure if hearing a song and thinking about an animatic for it happens to everyone but it does for me and I thought I’d share my ideas! I’ll probs share more if I come up with more. If you’ve got some too, perhaps reblog? Idk, I’d like to hear your ideas :3

Undertale Is (The Closest Thing We Have To) The Citizen Kane of Video Games or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love The Hot Take

so: a bold statement up there, BUT i plan to deliver on the promise of the title! once again this post is gonna be off the cuff as the basic idea for this post has been kicking around in my head for like, weeks, so if i mess something up and/or muddle my points please feel free to correct me!

Part 1: AKA the Setup

alright, for the folks who don’t know what i’m talking about when i say “citizen kane” i’ll give a brief synopsis of the film: in short it’s a film about this guy, charles foster kane, who’s this elderly newspaper tycoon. real rich fella, who’s on his deathbed when the film starts

his death becomes sensational in the papers when on his deathbed, he whispers the word, “rosebud” and dies

the rest of the film switches back and forth between people in the present day interviewing people that were important to kane, and flashbacks telling the story of kane’s life, his rough childhood, his meteoric rise to power, his inevitable public downfall, and his tumultuous personal life

it’s a fantastic film, and i’d recommend y’all watch it if you’re interested in the history and evolution in film as a form of media, but what i’m interested in here mostly is the technical achievement the film pulls off

there’s so much the movie does to create this visual feast for the eyes and it’s just,, aaaaa

i could waste a lot of digital ink about orson welles usage of deep focus photography, which was a technique that allowed early filmmakers to keep all elements of the frame in focus

at the same time

which was mindblowing at the time (even though german expressionist work of the 1920′s such as the cabinet of dr caligari did it first but i digress) or the beautiful tracking shots or really anything but you get where im going, films amazing less for it’s plot and more for it’s groundbreaking visuals

my thesis here is that citizen kane is uniquely good because it’s inherently a story built for and thus can only be told in, the medium of film

the way it uses film language to convey the characters inner worlds and deepest desires and demons is nothing short of breathtaking and you just can’t adapt it into another medium without taking away what’s special about it

which brings us to undertale

Part 2: What You’re All Here For

ah undertale, how i love thee with a fiery passion

there’s a lot i still love to this day about undertale, but a lot of it comes down to it’s usage of the language of video games to engender a connection between the player and it’s world and characters

how many people ended up killing a few froggits or whimsuns their first time, assuming this was “just another rpg”? how many people killed toriel on accident due to a misread tutorial message or assumption that the fight was plot mandated? and do i even have to mention flowey?

the way the game crashes after asgore, the way it always stung a little bit, at least for me at first, when i didn’t get exp from sparing monsters, the constant lampshading and the entire commentary on morality and the way most rpgs cast the player that the genocide route embodies

the explanation of what exp and LV really means, the way saves are presented in the narrative as being a literal manifestion of the players will to “beat the game” no matter how many times they have to try it over and over again and if you aren’t “determined” enough to beat the game than it just, stops

i could go on forever because there’s so many examples!! it’s a downright treasure trove of meta-analysis

undertale is unique in that it is such a video game that every aspect of it is built on it’s own awareness of the medium it’s in and the players familiarity with video games and it’s freaking awesome, and it couldn’t exist in another medium the same way citizen kane makes a great film, but a lousy novel

it’s just, so good you guys

Part 3: Final Thoughts

so, i may have overexaggerated with that title there

undertale isn’t the citizen kane of video games, insofar as this amazing technical achievement that managed to get the art snobs to notice this base new artform known as “film”, but it is the closest analogue to the impact undertale had and continues to have in our hearts, and in the industry

undertale and citizen kane both were transformative experiences for the time and place they arrived in, and still continue to inform their mediums even today who knows, undertale might be taught in colleges one day as the platonic ideal of games and what they’re capable of there’s no way to tell where our still nascent medium will go in the future, but given the last decade or so? i’m pretty darn optimistic i hope y’all enjoyed this history lesson/hot take, and i’m always in your corner! bloodwynn, signing off!

I had One of Those Dreams again last night. The kind that seems to last a long time and have an intense plot and characters with real emotion, that evolves and morphs into different stories as it goes along.

And I keep thinking back on it periodically through the day because it was really...idk attention-holding?

Like I don’t remember much, but there are a few clear and unconnected scenes I do remember.

1. I was at a house somewhere (it doesn’t really matter) and met this guy who I clicked with at once. Like we were on the level of saying the same thing at the EXACT same time and having the same emotions/opinions toward things. Plus we both wanted to be like...in love? so we were pretty much immediately inseparable and I was sitting in his lap cuddling as we talked to peeps.

It was like Instant Boyfriend.

2. Fast forward to when the plot has reached some sort of climax and he’s like, gone to the dark side. Now I think it was 100% Undertale inspired because that conversation wasn’t like......in the real world, it was like some sort of boss battle and i was refusing to fight. Basically he was all evil and he was like, saying that none of it had been real and he’d been tricking me. But I didn’t believe it. (he also had an evil friend so i was like *side eyes emoji*)

3. Flashback to his past and he was like, a Polynesian sailor who was involved in some sort of dramatic boat incident. It was like Moana but with less magic. But he was definitely a good guy trying to save people and I was like “i fucking knew it that bitch is lying about being evil”

i think i had some sort of emotional speech about how i know that what we had was real even if he doesn’t. and i still believe in him or w/e mushy crap is in my subconscious

4. at some point when the dream had morphed, i was in a store looking at all sorts of shit. there was a tinker bell suitcase that was cute but way too huge even for me. then there was this like, sparkly dark greenish/blueish dress and matching shoes and i wanted to try it on but they had fuck all in the back so i was like “okay so take it off the mannequin then??” but anyways i got to try it on and it was way too big and there was another woman in the dressing room who was trying on the shoes and i thought she was rude at first but we commiserated on the store’s shitty sizing/stock

5. i was at some....house. which does matter this time. because it was really weird. and this new neighbor was showing me around and there was a bunk bed and then a bunk...couch? like in lego movie. except the top couch was too low so you’d have to lay in the bottom one if you wanted to fit there. and the girl and her family were all creepy and it was stormy and there was a big...murdery....scary plot.....idk

6. me and scary redheaded girl (this may be pertinent because im prejudiced against the color orange) went to a weird old party store and tried on silly wigs and shit and i was still scared of her so i was trying to pretend to be her friend

anyways i have weird dreams and i should start writing them down more so i can remember them and get better at analyzing them. i don’t know this one means except that i like undertale, am lonely, and scared of red haired murderers.

ohhh so Trilo was asking her out

Q: well max you should've hit the dummy and not ben then

Phoenix: I think I'm beginning to see why she seemed... troubled...

Phoenix who do you think should marry Regina I'm interested in your thoughts

Trilo: I don't care! It's my choice not hers!

Well I guess she shouldn't marry the dummy

BF: (Honestly, right now? None of them. She’s 16)

Q: oh boy

Q: Well with what other crazy s*** they do allow in court sure you can fly

Max: I can imagine it now: The dashing young lawyer flying around to courtroom, and immediately everybody is on his side! Me: I'm touched by your kind words, but sadly I cannot fly

Q: See Phoenix and i are on the same page :D

Franz: That spirit channeling trial was a shame! You're a shame

I mean you did lose last time so

and so did your dad

screw you dad

Q: Franz no matter how hard you try your dad will always be a shame, your last name will always be a shame, and so will the majority of prosecutors. You still have a chance to not be a shame though... but you are right now.

Q: ya but why was there footprints

what was in the box

if he was killed somewhere else why are there footprints

this is the most hated case and I remember you saying that you get punished if you press too hard on some things so I will save a lot (CHEATER!)

Q: well this is a circus and a famous joke is that pepper makes you sneeze so maybe it has something to do with that?

Q: Franz you suck

hey trilo i hate you

more than franz actually!!!

That is a really big acomplishment!!!

Q: we've had cases where people frame the others by wearing their clothes, in fact the last one was!

BF: Oh, no, it's not if you press too HARD

Judge: You're prosecution skills are unrivaled

Me: OH WELL EXCUSE ME

ah okay

BF: there is a cross examination where if you press the wrong statement at all you get a penalty.

Q: crap

BF: so you can't just press everything without risking damage

Q: well I need to look out for that

BF: You'll know which one it is when you get to it. the game is kind enough to warn you.

Q: thank you game

Q: I'm not talking to a brick wall I'm talking to a wriggling piece of plywood

NO NOT YET MAX

Q: Not just this defendant, but max and everybody else as well!

Q: huh the puppet exploded without any of Franz help

Q: finally she hits him with the whip

Trilo: What's the matter?! You think that humans have a monopoly on marriage?! yes

Judge: i guess you're right... Just because I'm old doesn't mean I can't propose to her too Me: yes it does please stop

Q: why does the dummy keep hitting pen

ben

Q: I am glad the puppet is suffering

Q: YESSS Franz hit the puppet with the whip and he exploded

Q: saaave poooiiiint

I should take a little break I guess

Q: he would want to frame you because he didn't want to give you the big check, maybe it was even suicide because he couldn't pay the other workers

I was drawing all of these without references so I decided to draw maya

phoenix go away

sometimes the game is like this

fite me

that's all of the doodles haha

Hi moe why are you sad

Q: I feel bad for moe

BF: hee hee hee

poor Phoenix

Q: I had fun drawing them poor phoenix indeed

Q: but that is how 1.5 felt like haha. Maya left, at the end Edgy left, Ema was being mean, Lana was making ti difficult, Gant betrayed me, so-on

nobody gave me credit for my ideas either it was sad

Q: moe I'm sorry but we're talking about the murder

BF: to be fair, Maya was prevented by the actual plot from being there hahah. Remember, 1-5 was not in the original GBA version of the game; it was added later for the DS port, AFTER the third game had already come out

and the set timeline went that Phoenix doesn't see Maya in person again until 2-2, which takes places BEFORE 2-1.

so the only way for 1-5 to fit the existing continuity at all was to have a case where Maya was absent...which worked out well for us because it forced them to make Ema to fill in for her.

Q: I feel really bad for gumshoe

true! I can give Maya that excuse, she was fine.

"And why did we put 2-2 before 2-1? For the people who didn't play the first game!"

dammit I wanna see edgy again I miss him

BF: haha just be patient. He'll show up when you least expect it.

Q: :D

Q: Oh no I need to be carful on this one

Q: time to save a lot and be very picky about what I press about

...I guess it's weird he looked out his window for no reason

save

how did this get here

:D I think I'm on the right track with the window thing!

Q: and now the last statement doesn't make sense because--

yes I do miss vampire the second

Q: hmmm

time to save again

hmmm

wait his cloak isn't black!

Q: and the roses but from the angle he said he saw Max it i didn't think that was important enough whatever

Q: Hey edgy while you were gone I made the guy-who's-name-shall-not-be-mentioned's daughter suffer are you proud of me

I miss him :(

Q: if he was mature then why would he be a clown

Q: no pressing at all? dammit

Q: time to save

if he was wearing it the whole time then why was it there dammit I don't know if that is actually what the game wants me to think I've been lucky so far and I just saved so why not

I should fail soon i know it

Q: Stop being so mean to Moe it's the dummy's fualt

DID HE BY ANY CHANCE FLY

HE COULDN'T HAVE WALKED BECAUSE THERE WERE NO FOOTPRINTS >:(

frick i can't save when evidence is up

the photo please work photo

Franz: That's not funny!

Me: It kinda is though...

Q: geez uh

all of these options are not what I am thinking

I can save though!

Max: I know you didn't mean to ask such a fabulously stupid question but I can't fly whenever I please, it's not that easy!

That's what I've been saying!

saaave poiiiiint

I still don't get why people hate this case so much

Q: maybe that's just because of how lucky i was when talking to moe

people get game overs and then finally are able to finish it and then his entire testimony is complely disregarded

BF: hahah it's a matter of personal taste, obviously. :3 Plenty of people thing Moe is annoying (he grew on me) and/or didn't like Ben (that's more understandable) for instance

BF: there's the frustration of Moe's cross examination, the fact that this case doesn't seem as CONNECTED to the rest of the game, and there's one other thing that I can't get into without spoiling the end.

BF: Though, for the record, said thing is what I think makes this case stand out in an interesting way.

(and is also the thing that thematically ties it to the other two main cases, though I can't say why.)

Q: It probably is. For all of the characters I can see why people would hate them. Max is a jerk, Regina is being hit on by everyone but she is 16, Ben is boring and the dummy is annoying and terrible, and Moe is annoying and unhelpful in their opinions just save over and over again it'll be fine It is a good point but not everything has to be about story I wonder if I will like the thing at the end hey so it is connected anyways!

BF: BASICALLY It's just a lot of Game 2 as a whole being seen as somewhat lesser for not being as deeply interconnected as the first or the third game, but I think the word about how disliked it is tends to get a touch overblown.

I think Moe more than makes up for his annoying habits by the end hahah

Q: ah. Well I like this game, and I really wanna play farwell my turnabout interesting!

BF: and I'm divided on Ben for a few reasons

Q: I am too... I mean, the dummy is terrible and Ben is too quiet but Ben is controlling the dummy but everyone here is too invested in their careers and- eh

BF: I love Max unconditionally hahha. He's ridiculous and over the top because he's designed to be that way, but there's definitely more to him than you see at first.

Q: Maya don't give it back please why did you do that

Q: there is I like max

Trilo: Waiting like this is a part of being in love!

Me: Ya like waiting 60 minuets to send another text and trying to leave the conversation as fast as possible resulting in you not getting to talk to the person you wanna talk to.

Trilo this is dumb.

Max: Why would I be friends with a bunch of bozos like them!

Me: so that they don't frame you for murder of course

Q: gummy!!!

I feel bad for you do you want a hug

Q: gummy thank you :D

Also what the heck do you mean by she's right above us what

I havn't heard of this acrobat so far

oh wait i have

he's friends with the monkey that stole my precious

Q: we're going up into that room

but this time

we'll taze her

while screaming REGEEENGGGEEE as we steal something important from her

no? Fine...

Q: OH HI MOE

Phoenix: I wouldn't mind hearing more about Max's bust... not that I'm into that sort of thing...

Phoenix it's fine we already knew you were gay

this crackship amuses me endlessly

oh my god that is actually a conversation topic now

it is pretty cool though!!!

maybe we can get edgy to pay for i-OH WAIT HE'S NOT HERE

Q: Ya because I totally wanted to garden in 100 degree heat for two hours at a place I dislike with people I dislike.

Oh ya we hit 100 today wooo

also the car was overheating so I had to stop a lot and spend money on ani freeze and have the heaters on so I was boiling and upset and out of money6

whatever playing 2.3 should help

the image I've been waiting for

BF: Lol, to be fair, those are clearly Mia’s boobs when Maya channels her, but Maya’s CLOTHES don’t change with the rest of her.

The real question is why Pearl’s outfit doesn’t throttle her.

Q: EXACTLY

Q: THAT IS WHAT I WAS THINKING

So either the clothes do change or Pearl is the exception. Either way she should at lease try

Also another conversation im drawing right now

BF: Not exactly an exception though, given the fact that the only thing that keeps Mia from flashing the world when Pearl channels her is the fact that she keeps her arms crossed the entire time...

Cause if anything she’s showing twice as much cleavage in that form.

Q: well at least that is good good job mia

Q: very true.

PW: Hey Maya

M: What is it?

PW: Do you wanna go clothes shopping?

M: What? Why? I like these robes and I need to wear them

PW: It's just that you're starting to grow out of them is all! We need to get some bigger clothes

:They get bigger robes:

:later:

Mia: Hi agai-

PW: I got Maya some bigger robes so that maybe when you possessed her you could finally cover your rack I wasted 400$ on those please don't make it all for nothing

Mia: ...

Q: Alright so I opened the game I'm back at the thing and i forgot what i did

I have a note okay

uhhh I also have the bust

Q: hey Billy Bob Jones do you wanna talk more about your bust

Q: also why do people call the clown moe when his name is Lawrence

i knew we should've taken the baby we noticed in the tailcoat

Q: PAPER

how did i say baby instead of paper

Q: hi gum shoe

crap whos phone is ringing

do you have like a metal detector thing for her

hey how dare you whip Maya out of court

jerk

Franz: Tomorrow will be the day! The day my dreams finally come true!

Me: I should be scared of you but because I'm know I can respond with sarcastic retorts.

oh boy i actually get to talk to her

BF: Lol okay the pun with Moe’s name: his real name Lawrence CURLS. His stage name is Moe. And a nickname for Lawrence is Larry. And the names of the original three Stooges? Larry, Curly, and Moe!

BF: Also could be a vague callback to case two, where you had the sisters Ini and Mimi Miney...

Q: ohhhh okay!

BF: Eenie Meenie Miney Moe lD

Q: oh my god hahahahaha This game loves name puns

BF: Oh it loves them soooo much you have no idea. XD and they get way the heck more blatant in later games

Q: pffft

Q: I CAN'T WAIT

BF: Though how blatant they are in the English localization are all down to April May’s name. Once they did her and had her working for Redd White of Bluecorp...

Q: I remember that case, the entire time I was telling my brother "It was the white guy I know it" --- Franz can you like acknowledge your dad was a huge [long strong of strong swear words] please?

WHAT DID EDGY DO TO YOU

Hey Franz we could be best friends if you bring him back for me

Franz it isn't my fault it's your dad's and the other guy's fualt

HE ISN'T DEAD >:(

"He never set his foot in court again" The bonus level man

ya me niether Franz it's a blatent lie because of the bunus level

Phoenix is heart broken :(

BF: Hahaha well it was kind of retconned so that she was talking about the bonus level, but I admit it was pretty clumsily inserted in points

And yeah, poor Nick :/

Q: poor phoenix indeed...

Q: hi acrobat Phoenix is heartbroken can you cheer him up

Aww Acro

why not doodle why do I draw

ringmaster seems like a nice guy :(

Acro: Truly a princess.. Are you sure that's a good thing? Exactly!

LIAR

Q: Oh hey Regina is back

Q: I like to think that the things in parentheses are what Phoenix is thinking but how come people can marry him

HEAR

WHAT THE HELL

im having a hard time thinking ugh

but what if i don't wanna get the costume

though it seems like Maya only hears him.

Q: oh no i found the monkey

Q: i got the vest yay

Q: maybe Franz would want it Hey Franz here is an apology gift for something I didn't do

Q: I hate burgers

Q: awww Moe is a good person

Q: ugh

"What do you mean when you say I when playing this game" I mean me, or I mean me as Phoenix. Usually the second.

Q: ugh

Q: nevermind back to game, i talked to Moe about Acro and Bat.

I feel bad for Bat even if that was idiotic

Q: Franz no we're upset and Acro is upset you're not allowed here.

Q: Regina I'm starting to hate you again

but whatever the tradition of A Von Karma stealing something very important to me has continued. SUFFER

LOTS OF MILK FOR MAX

dangit Phoenix I can't save on the evidence page though!!

Q: you call me a fool and you're the one wearing ridiculous shoulder pads. I mean, Phoenix probably has some too but they don't look stupid.

hey Franz do nto bring up personal issues into court please

Q: you might not have been able to see as well because it was snowing

? i dunno

crap uh i dunno

and I can't save either

dammit

now I'll be stuck at this page forever

...leap of faith?

well the silk hat is a problem for me still... so...

how???

This case should cause me more touble I know it

Q: Franz please don't talk about Edgy this isn't the time if you do I will commit suicide and frame you for murder. If it doesn't work and they figure it out, at least my message will get across that I miss edgy.

hey i can save yesss

Franz: You're honor, do not allow yourself to be swayed by theatrics Me: You're honor, do not allow the f***ing whip in court, once that is settled, I will stop.

peck peck everybody hates me in this case now dammit even the brids hate me

Now this sounds like 2016

Q: i haven't been penalized yet so maybe I'm on the right track?

Q: the bust!

WHERE IS THE BUST

SHIT IT'S NOT IN MY EVIDENCE

oh my god it is i was really scared

Q: oww stop hitting me

Q: is there ever a time where we don't decide to cross examine

Q: I'm failing a bunch do not worry

Q: WHIPPING MAKES ME NOT WANNA LISTEN TO YOU

LALALALA I DON'T HEAR YOU

Q: interesting! When I failed I didn't need to use the save point

Q: oh so now acro can hear my thoughts from across the room

Q: game already let me go with far I must be right

uhhh

hey the monkey!!!

Is the monkley even that strong

Q: probably look at the other stuff it had

Q: pfft I think it's funny how her insult's are a child's

"MORON"

Q: the clown didn't see him, he saw a silhouette and his hat

hey!!!

Q: I like how Franz it's evil she just hates me

but indeed, it was the bust and nobody will argue with me >:3

and if they do it doesn't mean anything because it's Franz who is arguing

Q: phoenix please explain to me what happened im confused

Q: I have an idea of the motive.

Franz: In this court, only two things matter. The power of evidence and the power of my whip. Me: SOMEBODY PLEASE GET THAT WHIP AWAY FROM HER.

save now before it goes to the evidence screem

Q: wooo

Q: thought he killed max

okay save point

hi gumshoe!!!

Q: poor phoenix

"Why do you refuse to call him nick" Because I don't get it!!!

Q: frick should i cross examine i feel like that's waist time

whatever I can save

Q: I can't provide one because he didn't want the ringmaster to died he wanted Max to die

Q: hmmm

actually

Q: They want me to think it was max

didn't they

well franz

IM GOING TO DO SOMETHING UNEXPECTED

AND ALSO EXPLAIN WHY THERE WAS PEPPER IN THE BOX

IT WAS REGINA >:D

Gummy thank you

you influenced this decition

which may be better

i am right I knew it >:D

Q: Franz: The only thing that shall interrupt me is death itself!

YOU KNOW WHAT this will be my new catch phrase I need to get better and not being sorry because I said something

Q: foolishness is contagious

must've got it from you

Q: I'm not bluffing

...mostly...

actually i just need to remember what is going on i took a break for lunch

the pepper there we go

Q: I am very happy that I'm finally on the same track as Phoenix :D

Q: I am on the same track as him I know what I am talking about >:3

Q: the scarf probably has something on it

that the lion would want to eat

Regina gave it to him on the same day that the accident happened

Q: she must've knows he was gonna ask her out

and so she killed him???

lions sneeze.

FRANZ YOU'RE WRONG AND I BELIEVE IN MY THEORY

Q: I really don't want Acro to get arrested though... he's a good guy

Q: nooo i don't wanna go into investigation again

so i won't

Q: at least I saved

EXCACTLY HOLD IT

I THINK FRANZ HAS IT

HIDING EVIDENCE

SO THAT I WON'T WIN

I KNOW IT

and I'm not afraid to not save, I know it.

But noooo she wouldn't ahve it with her

SHE WANTS ME TO THINK THAT

Q: IT SEEMS MY HATRED FOR THE VON KARMA FAMILY HAS BESTED THEM

Q: ONE MORE

TIME

Q: You also made the mistake of blaming me for Edgy's supposed suicide that didn't happen

I am very angry about that

Q: he's crying...

I'm so sad

WOW I ALMOST STARTED CRYING

PLEASE DON'T HURT HIM

Franz: I'm... An... Idiot... Finally, I was waiting for you to say that

Q: Regina, it is time for you to learn about the real world.

Q: :)

Q: i like moe

he really is a good person

Q: all of these people are great :(

WHY WOULD PEOPLE EVER HATE THIS

So are we seeing things from Franz' perspective...

EDGY

EDGY EDGY EDGY

EDGY

Q: EDGYYYY

AHH

EDGY

I HAVE UNLOCKED FAWWELL MY TURNABOUT

YES

I AM VERY HAPPY

INDEED

I MISSED HIM SO MUCH

AND NOW THIS THING IS HERE AND IT THE ONE WITH EDGY AND THE CASE I SPENT 30$ ON THIS GAME FOR

Q: YESSSS

why is he wearing blue though

he is purple!

Q: i really wanna play it :(

Q: [my brother] said that if I help him finish turnabout samurai he will let me get it >:D

i love him dammit

BF: hah!

and yessssss WILL

Q: why is he blue though that's phoenix' color

Q: whatever

BF: Juan?

Q: no Edgy

why is he blue now

BF: Oh, in the portrait for the case?

Q: nono at the end cutscene

BF: or what he's wearing at the end of...ah

Q: THE ENDING SCENE ON 2.3

THERE WAS A PLANE AND GUMSHOE AND EDGY

BF: don't worry about that so much.

that's just like an overcoat or something.

Q: so I can still use purple when doodling him?

Q: ya

alright

but yay 2-4!! and my broither won't let me play it!!

and he's only halfway done with 1-3!!!

BF: hahah oh nooooo

Q: helping my bro speedrun, i bookmarked the old tutorial (i don't use a one for the second game) so that I could help him

BF: so what did you think of the 2-3 twist? I sorta kinda fell asleep while you were getting through the later parts hahah

Q: pfft

I thought it was sad I ended up actually almost crying

BF: WASN'T IT

Q: I didn't wanna get the guy in jail i like him

and then he cired

and now im sad

BUT THEN I SAW EDGY

AND STARTED YELLING

BF: Right? Acro was as much a victim as anyone

Q: and now he's going to jail...

BF: at least it's implied that Edgeworth is going to work to get his sentence reduced or modified or something in consideration of his circumstances

Q: edgy you made phoenix think he made you commit suicide

BF: I mean HE DID try to kill a dangerously innocent girl (and kill someone else in the process), so he can't exactly get off scott free, but

hahah Zarla super >:( at Edeworth about that little stunt, but she's not the biggest Edgeworth fan

Q: ya... :( I still feel bad for him though

WELL I AM for some reason

Q: I like characters for little pieces of stupid dialogue and there was a lot of that with edgy AND THEN THE CASE WHERE WE DEFEND HIM that was FULL of those. So that is why I like Edgy I bet.

I was set out to hate Regina until that dialogue about Maya wanting to propose to her came up!!! it's stuff like that!!!

There I justified my liking of the character now I can stop

BF: hahahah nah no I totally get where you are coming from.

and you don't have to justify like or not liking characters to me hhaah. (I say knowing full well I am compelled to do JUST THAT.)

sometimes characters just click or don't click with you for the most random reasons

I've had some that I hated irrationally for a while and then later did 180s on so...logic is weird.

Q: Thanks! I have trouble with that... Talking about my opinions without feeling I need to justify them. Thanks!

CHARACTER LIKING IS WEIRD! At first I didn't like Jockey very much because her color scheme looked too off in the animation "I've Learnt Too Much I have gone Mad" (I call it JA (for Jockey Animation) for short)... though that's just has to do with not knowing enough about the character. Though I have a few other examples of it just being "THAT ONE THING CHANGED MY MIND". It happens a lot.

Q: doodling more ace attorney because of course

(This leads directly into my reaction to 2-4)
